Impact: fix very rare reboot hang
Because rcutorture ignored all signals, it does not terminate in
response to the signals sent at shutdown time. This can cause strange
failures due to its continuing to make use of kernel function too late
in the shutdown sequence. This patch therefore adds a shutdown notifier
to rcutorture, causing it to shut down in response to a reboot or an
orderly shutdown.

SHWT value is used as address valid to -CSx assertion and -CSx to -DIOx
assertion setup time, and contrarywise, -DIOx to -CSx release and -CSx
release to address invalid hold time, so it actualy applies 4 times and
so constitutes -DIOx recovery time. Check requirement of the recovery
time and cycle time. Also check SHWT maximum value.

e5318b531b ("ide: use the dma safe check for
REQ_TYPE_ATA_PC") introduced a regression which caused some ATAPI drives to
turn off DMA for REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC commands while burning and thus degrading
performance and ultimately causing an excessive amount of underruns.
The issue is documented also in:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11742.

There is a problem discovered in recent versions of ATI Mach64 driver
in X.org on sparc64 architecture. In short, the driver fails to mmap
MMIO aperture (PCI resource #2).
I've found that kernel's __pci_mmap_make_offset() returns EINVAL. It
checks whether user attempts to mmap more than the resource length,
which is 0x1000 bytes in our case. But PAGE_SIZE on SPARC64 is 0x2000
and this is what actually is being mmaped. So __pci_mmap_make_offset()
failed for this PCI resource.

GCC warns because some tests against 32-bit values never evaluate to
true due to how TASK_SIZE is defined.
I always wanted to mimick powerpc's definition of TASK_SIZE, which
is simply TASK_SIZE_OF(current) and that also fixes the warning.

Alexander Beregalov reports oops in __bzero() called from
copy_from_user_fixup() called from iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(),
when running dbench on tmpfs on sparc64: its __copy_from_user_inatomic
and __copy_to_user_inatomic should be avoiding, not calling, the fixups.

Commit 04a4bb55bc ("net: add
skb_recycle_check() to enable netdriver skb recycling") added a
method for network drivers to recycle skbuffs, but while use of
this mechanism was documented in the commit message, it should
really have been added as a docbook comment as well -- this
patch does that.
