In arch/arm/kvm/mmu.c:unmap_range(), we end up doing an extra put_page()
on the stage2 pgd which leads to the BUG in put_page_testzero(). This
happens because a pud_huge() test in unmap_range() returns true when it
should always be false with 2-level pages tables used by 64k pages.
This patch removes support for huge puds if 2-level pagetables are
being used.

The attached change significantly improves the performance of the LWS-CAS code
in syscall.S.
This allows a number of packages to build (e.g., zeromq3, gtest and libxs)
that previously failed because slow LWS-CAS performance under contention. In
particular, interrupts taken while the lock was taken degraded performance
significantly.
The change does the following:
1) Disables interrupts around the CAS operation, and
2) Changes the loads and stores to use the ordered completer, "o", on
PA 2.0. "o" and "ma" with a zero offset are equivalent. The latter is
accepted on both PA 1.X and 2.0.
The use of ordered loads and stores probably makes no difference on all
existing hardware, but it seemed pedantically correct. In particular, the CAS
operation must complete before LDCW lock is released. As written before, a
processor could reorder the operations.
I don't believe the period interrupts are disabled is long enough to
significantly increase interrupt latency. For example, the TLB insert code is
longer. Worst case is a memory fault in the CAS operation.

Checkin:
b3b42ac2cb x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels
disabled 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels due to an information
leak. However, it does seem that people are genuinely using Wine to
run old 16-bit Windows programs on Linux.
A proper fix for this ("espfix64") is coming in the upcoming merge
window, but as a temporary fix, create a sysctl to allow the
administrator to re-enable support for 16-bit segments.
It adds a "/proc/sys/abi/ldt16" sysctl that defaults to zero (off). If
you hit this issue and care about your old Windows program more than
you care about a kernel stack address information leak, you can do
echo 1 > /proc/sys/abi/ldt16
as root (add it to your startup scripts), and you should be ok.
The sysctl table is only added if you have COMPAT support enabled on
x86-64, but I assume anybody who runs old windows binaries very much
does that ;)

Meta overrode _STK_LIM_MAX (the default RLIMIT_STACK hard limit) to
256MB, apparently in an attempt to prevent setup_arg_pages's
STACK_GROWSUP code from choosing the maximum stack size of 1GB, which is
far too large for Meta's limited virtual address space and hits a BUG_ON
(stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000).
However the commit "metag: Reduce maximum stack size to 256MB" reduces
the absolute stack size limit to a safe value for metag. This allows the
default _STK_LIM_MAX override to be removed, bringing the default
behaviour in line with all other architectures. Parisc in particular
recently removed their override of _STK_LIMT_MAX in commit e0d8898d76
(parisc: remove _STK_LIM_MAX override) since it subtly affects stack
allocation semantics in userland. Meta's uapi/asm/resource.h can now be
removed and switch to using generic-y.

This patch affects only architectures where the stack grows upwards
(currently parisc and metag only). On those do not hardcode the maximum
initial stack size to 1GB for 32-bit processes, but make it configurable
via a config option.
The main problem with the hardcoded stack size is, that we have two
memory regions which grow upwards: stack and heap. To keep most of the
memory available for heap in a flexmap memory layout, it makes no sense
to hard allocate up to 1GB of the memory for stack which can't be used
as heap then.
This patch makes the stack size for 32-bit processes configurable and
uses 80MB as default value which has been in use during the last few
years on parisc and which hasn't showed any problems yet.

Specify the maximum stack size for arches where the stack grows upward
(parisc and metag) in asm/processor.h rather than hard coding in
fs/exec.c so that metag can specify a smaller value of 256MB rather than
1GB.
This fixes a BUG on metag if the RLIMIT_STACK hard limit is increased
beyond a safe value by root. E.g. when starting a process after running
"ulimit -H -s unlimited" it will then attempt to use a stack size of the
maximum 1GB which is far too big for metag's limited user virtual
address space (stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000):

Volatile access doesn't really imply the compiler barrier. Volatile access
is only ordered with respect to other volatile accesses, it isn't ordered
with respect to general memory accesses. Gcc may reorder memory accesses
around volatile access, as we can see in this simple example (if we
compile it with optimization, both increments of *b will be collapsed to
just one):
void fn(volatile int *a, long *b)
{
(*b)++;
*a = 10;
(*b)++;
}
Consequently, we need the compiler barrier after a write to the volatile
variable, to make sure that the compiler doesn't reorder the volatile
write with something else.

The invalidation is required in order to maintain proper semantics
under CoW conditions. In scenarios where a process clones several
threads, a thread operating on a core whose DTLB entry for a
particular hugepage has not been invalidated, will be reading from
the hugepage that belongs to the forked child process, even after
hugetlb_cow().
The thread will not see the updated page as long as the stale DTLB
entry remains cached, the thread attempts to write into the page,
the child process exits, or the thread gets migrated to a different
processor.

"Seems like we've had more fixes than usual this release cycle, but
there's nothing in particular that we're doing differently. Perhaps
it's just one of those cycles where more people are finding more
regressions (and/or that the latency of when people actually test
what's been in the tree for a while is catching up so that we get the
bug reports now).
The bigger changes here are are for TI and Marvell platforms:
* Timing changes for GPMC (generic localbus) on OMAP causing some
largeish DTS deltas.
* Fixes to window allocation on PCI for mvebu touching drivers/
stuff. Patches have acks from subsystem maintainers where needed.
* A fix from Thomas for a botched DT conversion in drivers/edma.

sunxi, at91, i.MX. I also included a MAINTAINER update for Broadcom,
and a trivial move of a binding doc.
