The HPET in the ICH4M is not documented in the data sheet
because it was not officially validated.
While it is fine for hackers to continue to use "hpet=force"
to enable the hardware that they have, it is not prudent to
solicit additional "hpet=force" users on this hardware.

uv_read_rtc() is referenced by read member of struct clocksource clocksource_uv.
In include/linux/clocksource.h, read of struct clocksource is declared as:
cycle_t (*read)(struct clocksource *cs)
This got introduced recently in:
8e19608: clocksource: pass clocksource to read() callback
But arch/x86/kernel/uv_time.c was not properly converted by that pach.
This patch adds a dummy parameter (struct clocksource type) to uv_read_rtc() to
fix the incompatible reference in clocksource_uv, and add a NULL parameter in
all places where uv_read_rtc() gets called.

It partially reverts commit c23e253e67
(x86: hpet: stop HPET_COUNTER when programming periodic mode)
HPET on AMD 81xx chipset needs a second write (with HPET_TN_SETVAL
cleared) to T0_CMP register to set the period in periodic mode.
With this patch HPET_COUNTER is still stopped but not reset when HPET
is programmed in periodic mode. This should help to avoid races when
HPET is programmed in periodic mode and fixes a boot time hang that
I've observed on a machine when using 1000HZ.

fcef8576d8 converted backtrace_mask to a
cpumask_var_t, and assumed check_nmi_watchdog was called before
nmi_watchdog_tick was ever called. Steven's oops shows I was wrong.
This is something of a bandaid: I'm not sure we *should* be calling
nmi_watchdog_tick before check_nmi_watchdog. Note that gcc eliminates
this test for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n case.

In 64bit signal delivery path, clear_used_math() was happening before saving
the current active FPU state on to the user stack for signal handling. Between
clear_used_math() and the state store on to the user stack, potentially we
can get a page fault for the user address and can block. Infact, while testing
we were hitting the might_fault() in __clear_user() which can do a schedule().
At a later point in time, we will schedule back into this process and
resume the save state (using "xsave/fxsave" instruction) which can lead
to DNA fault. And as used_math was cleared before, we will reinit the FP state
in the DNA fault and continue. This reinit will result in loosing the
FPU state of the process.
Move clear_used_math() to a point after the FPU state has been stored
onto the user stack.
This issue is present from a long time (even before the xsave changes
and the x86 merge). But it can easily be exposed in 2.6.28.x and 2.6.29.x
series because of the __clear_user() in this path, which has an explicit
__cond_resched() leading to a context switch with CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY.

Fix endcase where the memory at physical address 0 does not really
exist AND one of the sockets on blade 0 has no active cpus.
The memory that _appears_ to be at physical address 0 is actually
memory that located at a different address but has been remapped by
the chipset so that it appears to be at physical address 0.
When determining the UV pnode, the algorithm for determining the pnode
incorrectly used the relocated physical address instead of the actual
(global) address.

Take already available policy->cpuinfo.max_freq and get rid of acpi-cpufreq
specific max_freq variable.
This implies that P0 is always the highest frequency which should always
be true as ACPI spec says:
As a result, the zeroth entry describes the highest performance state

I hit the check_flags error of lockdep:
WARNING: at kernel/lockdep.c:2893 check_flags+0x1a7/0x1d0()

softirqs last disabled at (12568): [<ffffffff8058454e>] tcp_prequeue_process+0x2e/0xa0
The check_flags warning of lockdep tells me that lockdep thought interrupts
were disabled, but they were really enabled.
The numbers in the above parenthesis show the order of events:
12566: softirqs last enabled: lock_sock_nested
12567: hardirqs last enabled: local_bh_enable
12568: softirqs last disabled: tcp_prequeue_process
12566: hardirqs last disabled: int3
int3 is a breakpoint!
Examining this further, I have CONFIG_NET_TCPPROBE enabled which adds
break points into the kernel.
The paranoid_exit of the return of int3 does not account for enabling
interrupts on return to kernel. This code is a bit tricky since it
is also used by the nmi handler (when lockdep is off), and we must be
careful about the swapgs. We can not call kernel code after the swapgs
has been performed.

Fix an endcase in the UV initialization code for the "UV large system mode"
of apicids. If node zero contains no cpus, cpus on another node will be the
boot cpu. The percpu data that contains the extra apicid bits was not
being initialized early enough.
