The old code was assuming that min_low_pfn was always 0. This
means that platforms having a big hole at their memory start
paid the price of wasting some memory for the allocation of
unused entries in mem_map[].
This patch prevents this waste.
It introduces PHYS_OFFSET define which is the start of the
physical memory and uses it wherever needed. Specially when
converting physical/virtual addresses into virtual/physical
ones.
Currently all platforms defines PHYS_OFFSET to 0.

This patch makes a better usage of these two globals.
'min_low_pfn' is now correctly setup for all configs, which
allow us to rely on it in boot memory code init.

Move I8259A_IRQ_BASE from asm/i8259.h to asm/mach-generic/irq.h and
make it really customizable. And remove I8259_IRQ_BASE declared on
some platforms. Currently only NEC_CMBVR4133 is using custom
I8259A_IRQ_BASE value.

The irq_base for {mips,rm7k,rm9k}_cpu_irq_init() are constant on all
platforms and are same value on most platforms (0 or 16, depends on
CONFIG_I8259). Define them in asm-mips/mach-generic/irq.h and make
them customizable. This will save a few cycle on each CPU interrupt.
A good side effect is removing some dependencies to MALTA in generic
SMTC code.
Although MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE is customizable, this patch changes irq
mappings on DDB5477, EMMA2RH and MIPS_SIM, since really customizing
them might cause some header dependency problem and there seems no
good reason to customize it. So currently only VR41XX is using custom
MIPS_CPU_IRQ_BASE value, which is 0 regardless of CONFIG_I8259.
Testing this patch on those platforms is greatly appreciated. Thank
you.

This patch fixes up ia64 kexec support for HP rx2620 hardware. It does
this by skipping migration of already disabled irqs. This is most likely a
problem on other ia64 platforms as well, but I've only been able to
reproduce it on one machine so far.
The full story is that handle_bad_irq() gets invoked before starting the
new kernel without this patch. This seems to happen when fixup_irqs()
calls generic_handle_irq() on already migrated (and disabled) irqs. So by
avoiding migration of disabled irqs we stay away of handle_bad_irq().
The code has been tested on three different ia64 machines, all with good
results. It is possible to trigger the same bug by offlining a processor
using echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online.

flush_workqueue() is not allowed to be called in the softirq context.
However, aio_complete() called from I/O interrupt can potentially call
put_ioctx with last ref count on ioctx and triggers bug. It is simply
incorrect to perform ioctx freeing from aio_complete.
The bug is trigger-able from a race between io_destroy() and aio_complete().
A possible scenario:
cpu0 cpu1
io_destroy aio_complete
wait_for_all_aios { __aio_put_req
... ctx->reqs_active--;
if (!ctx->reqs_active)
return;
}
...
put_ioctx(ioctx)
put_ioctx(ctx);
__put_ioctx
bam! Bug trigger!
The real problem is that the condition check of ctx->reqs_active in
wait_for_all_aios() is incorrect that access to reqs_active is not
being properly protected by spin lock.
This patch adds that protective spin lock, and at the same time removes
all duplicate ref counting for each kiocb as reqs_active is already used
as a ref count for each active ioctx. This also ensures that buggy call
to flush_workqueue() in softirq context is eliminated.

sd_probe() calls class_device_add() even before initializing the
sdkp->device variable. class_device_add() eventually results in the user mode
udev program to be called. udev program can read the the allow_restart
attribute of the newly created scsi device. This is resulting in a crash as
the show function for allow_restart (i.e sd_show_allow_restart) returns the
attribute value by reading the sdkp->device->allow_restart variable. As the
sdkp->device is not initialized before calling the user mode hotplug helper,
this results in a crash.
The patch below solves it by calling class_device_add() only after the
necessary fields in the scsi_disk structure are initialized properly.
