Impact: save .text size when kexec is built in but not loaded
This patch adds an architecture specific struct kimage_arch into
struct kimage. The pointers to page table pages used by kexec are
added to struct kimage_arch. The page tables pages are dynamically
allocated in machine_kexec_prepare instead of statically from BSS
segment. This will save up to 20k memory when kexec image is not
loaded.

Which deliberately expose boot cpu dependence to pieces of the system,

Impact: fix crashes that can occur in NMI handlers, if their code is modified
Modifying code is something that needs special care. On SMP boxes,
if code that is being modified is also being executed on another CPU,
that CPU will have undefined results.
The dynamic ftrace uses kstop_machine to make the system act like a
uniprocessor system. But this does not address NMIs, that can still
run on other CPUs.
One approach to handle this is to make all code that are used by NMIs
not be traced. But NMIs can call notifiers that spread throughout the
kernel and this will be very hard to maintain, and the chance of missing
a function is very high.
The approach that this patch takes is to have the NMIs modify the code
if the modification is taking place. The way this works is that just
writing to code executing on another CPU is not harmful if what is
written is the same as what exists.
Two buffers are used: an IP buffer and a "code" buffer.
The steps that the patcher takes are:
1) Put in the instruction pointer into the IP buffer
and the new code into the "code" buffer.
2) Set a flag that says we are modifying code
3) Wait for any running NMIs to finish.
4) Write the code
5) clear the flag.
6) Wait for any running NMIs to finish.
If an NMI is executed, it will also write the pending code.
Multiple writes are OK, because what is being written is the same.
Then the patcher must wait for all running NMIs to finish before
going to the next line that must be patched.
This is basically the RCU approach to code modification.
Thanks to Ingo Molnar for suggesting the idea, and to Arjan van de Ven
for his guidence on what is safe and what is not.

Every call of kvm_set_irq() should offer an irq_source_id, which is
allocated by kvm_request_irq_source_id(). Based on irq_source_id, we
identify the irq source and implement logical OR for shared level
interrupts.
The allocated irq_source_id can be freed by kvm_free_irq_source_id().
Currently, we support at most sizeof(unsigned long) different irq sources.
[Amit: - rebase to kvm.git HEAD
- move definition of KVM_USERSPACE_IRQ_SOURCE_ID to common file

Impact: start per CPU heartbeat LED timers on SGI UV systems
The SGI UV system has no LEDS but uses one of the system controller
regs to indicate the online internal state of the cpu. There is a
heartbeat bit indicating that the cpu is responding to interrupts,
and an idle bit indicating whether the cpu is idle when the heartbeat
interrupt occurs. The current period is one second.
When a cpu panics, an error code is written by BIOS to this same reg.
This patchset provides the following:
* x86_64: Add base functionality for writing to the specific SCIR's
for each cpu.
* heartbeat: Invert "heartbeat" bit to indicate the cpu is
"interruptible". If the current thread is the idle thread,
then indicate system is "idle".
* if hotplug enabled, all bits are set (0xff) when the cpu is disabled.

This patch partially reverts a patch to add IOMMU support to ia64. The
forbid_dac variable was incorrectly moved to quirks.c, which isn't built

dma_alloc_coherent (include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) avoids GFP_DMA
allocation first and if the allocated address is not fit for the
device's coherent_dma_mask, then dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA
allocation. This is because dma_alloc_coherent avoids precious GFP_DMA
zone if possible. This is also how the old dma_alloc_coherent
(arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c) works.
However, if the coherent_dma_mask of a device is 24bit, there is no
point to go into the above GFP_DMA retry mechanism. We had better use
GFP_DMA in the first place.
