A patch for the CTC / ESCON network driver. Switch from kmalloc to kzalloc
when appropriate, remove some unnecessary kmalloc casts too. Since I have no
s390 machine, I didn't compile it but I examined it carefully.

s390 machines provide hardware support for creating Linux dumps on SCSI
disks. For creating a dump a special purpose dump Linux is used. The first
32 MB of memory are saved by the hardware before the dump Linux is
booted. Via an SCLP interface, the saved memory can be accessed from
Linux. This patch exports memory and registers of the crashed Linux to
userspace via a debugfs file. For more information refer to
Documentation/s390/zfcpdump.txt, which is included in this patch.

This patch adds a sysfs-attribute 'status' to make the DASD device-status
accessible from user-space. In addition, the DASD driver generates an
uevent(CHANGE) for the ccw-device on each device-status change.
This enables user-space applications (e.g. udev) to do related processing.

Recent cvs versions of gcc have support for an improved stack overflow
checking that calculates the size of the guard size for each function.
If the compiler accepts -mstack-size without -mstack-guard then the
new stack check is available. We always want to use the new stack
checker.

We get this:
Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:con3270_consetup from .data
between 'con3270' (at offset 0x45c8) and 'con3270_fn'
Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:con3215_consetup from .data
between 'con3215' (at offset 0x4678) and
'raw3215_ccw_driver'
Since there is no difference between a non present console setup
function and one that returns only 0 remove them.

Simplify the signal_return function that checks for the two special

walk, a call to copy_from_user while disabled page faults will work
as well.

The minor fault path has grown a lot in terms of cycles. In particular
the kprobes hook is very costly. Optimize the path to save a couple of
cycles. If kprobes is enabled more than 300 cycles can be avoided if
kprobes_running() is false.

Generic bug implementation for s390. Will increase the value of the
console output on BUG() statements since registers r0-r5,r14 will
not be clobbered by a printk() call that was previously done before
the illegal instruction of BUG() was hit.
Also implements an architecture specific WARN_ON(). Output of that
could be increased but requires common code change.

This patch adds two improvements to the oops output. First it adds an
additional line after the PSW which decodes the different fields of it.
Second a disassembler is added that decodes the instructions surrounding
the faulting PSW. The output of a test oops now looks like this:

sys_sigreturn, sys_rt_sigreturn and sys_sigaltstack. Call do_execve from
kernel_execve directly, move pt_regs to the right place and branch to
sysc_return to start the user space program. This removes the last

We used to unregister ccw devices not directly from the I/O
subchannel remove function in order to avoid lifelocks on the
css bus semaphore. This semaphore is gone, and there is no reason
to not unregister the ccw device directly (it is even better since
it is more in keeping with the goal of immediate disconnect).

Use a bitmap for indicating which subchannels require evaluation
instead of allocating memory for each evaluation request. This
approach reduces memory consumption during recovery in case of
massive evaluation request occurrence and removes the need for
memory allocation failure handling.
