Touching vmalloc memory in the middle of a lazy mode update can generate
a kernel PDE update, which must be flushed immediately. The fix is to
leave lazy mode when doing a vmalloc sync.

Placing a kprobe on "bc" instruction (s390/s390x) can cause an oops.
The instruction length is encoded into the first two bits of the s390
instruction. Kprobe is incorrectly computing the instruction length.
The instruction length is used for determining what type of "fix-up" is
needed for conditional branch instruction. The problem can bee seen by
placing a kprobe on a "bc" instruction that will not branch. The
results is that Kprobe incorrectly computes the new instruction
pointer (psw.addr) after single stepping the instruction. The problem
is corrected with this patch.

hypfs removes the whole hypfs directory tree and creates a new one, when a
process triggers an update by writing to the "update" attribute. When removing
and creating files, it is necessary to lock the inode of the parent directory
where the files live. Currently hypfs does not lock the parent inode, which
can lead to inode corruption. This patch:
* Introduces correct locking
* Fixes i_nlink reference counting for inodes, when creating directories
* Adds info printk, when hypfs filesystem has been mounted

The instruction table for b2 opcodes was missing an opfrag value
for the cpya instruction. All instructions specified after cpya
were not considered by the disassembler. The fix is simple and
obvious - add the opfrag field to the cpya instruction.

There are several s390 diagnose calls, which must be executed below the
2GB memory boundary. In order to enforce this, those diagnoses must be
compiled into the kernel. Currently diag 14 can be called within the
vmur kernel module from addresses above 2GB. This leads to specification
exceptions. This patch moves diag10, diag14 and diag210 into the new
diag.c file.

The initial user manuals for MPC8544/8533 had some issues with properly
documenting the device IDs for MPC8544/8533. These processors are almost
identical and both show up on the reference boards.
Fix up the quirks for PCIe support to handle MPC8533/E.

I did some testing and found quite a lot of problems (doesn't
boot at all on non NUMA and misassigns cores on Opteron systems).
Mark it as experimental and warn against its use for now.
It's still default y for SUMMIT/NUMAQ because it'll presumably
work on these systems.

This causes boot failures for some people.
It looks like in fact that some SILO provided

Some host drivers depend on CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC to do the probing but their
config options lack explicit dependencies on IDE_GENERIC. In the long-term
these host drivers should be fixed to do the probing themselves but for now
fix them by making their config options select CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC.

With commit ab144f5ec6 the patching code
now collects the complete new instruction stream into a temp buffer
before finally patching in the new insns. In some cases the paravirt
patchers will choose to leave the patch site unpatched (length mismatch,
clobbers mismatch, etc).
This causes the new patching code to copy an uninitialized temp buffer,
i.e. garbage, to the callsite. Simply make sure to always initialize
the buffer with the original instruction stream. A better fix is to
audit all the patchers and return proper length so that apply_paravirt()
can skip copies when we leave the patch site untouched.

Very old binutils (2.12.90...) seem to have trouble with newlines
in assembler macro invocation. They put them into the resulting
argument expansion. In this case this lead to a parse error because
a .rept expression ended up spread over multiple lines. Change the PMDS()
invocation to a single line.

This should fix an oops with PCMCIA PATA devices
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8424
This is not a full fix for the problem, but probably
still the right thing to do.
[ I'm almost certain it's *not* the right thing to do, but it avoids an
oops, and I want comments from others on what the right thing would
actually be.. I suspect we should just remove the use of dma_mask
entirely in this function, and just use coherent_dma_mask. - Linus ]
