Pull Xen bugfixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
- Use appropriate macros instead of hand-rolling our own (ARM).
- Fixes if FB/KBD closed unexpectedly.
- Fix memory leak in /dev/gntdev ioctl calls.
- Fix overflow check in xenbus_file_write.
- Document cleanup.
- Performance optimization when migrating guests.
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.7-rc4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
xen/mmu: Use Xen specific TLB flush instead of the generic one.
xen/arm: use the __HVC macro
xen/xenbus: fix overflow check in xenbus_file_write()
xen-kbdfront: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING
xen-fbfront: handle backend CLOSED without CLOSING
xen/gntdev: don't leak memory from IOCTL_GNTDEV_MAP_GRANT_REF
x86: remove obsolete comment from asm/xen/hypervisor.h
Just get %icc2 into the state we would have after local_irq_disable()
and physical IRQ having happened since then. Then we can simply
use preempt_schedule_irq() and be done with the whole mess.

The kernel_thread() changes for FRV don't work, and FRV fails to boot,
starting with:
commit 02ce496f15
Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
Date: Tue Sep 18 22:18:51 2012 -0400
Subject: frv: split ret_from_fork, simplify kernel_thread() a lot
The problem is that the userspace registers are completely cleared when a
kernel thread is created and all subsequent user threads are then copied from
that. Unfortunately, however, the TBR and PSR registers are restored from the
pt_regs and the values they should be set to are clobbered by the memset.
Instead, copy across the old user registers as normal, and then merely alter
GR8 and GR9 in it if we're going to execute a kernel thread.

Fix the preemption handling in FRV code where the PREEMPT_ACTIVE value is
incorrectly loaded into the threadinfo flags rather than the threadinfo
preemption count.
Unfortunately, the code cannot be simply converted to use
preempt_schedule_irq() as is because FRV uses virtual interrupt disablement to
cut down on the cost of actually disabling interrupts and thus
local_irq_enable() doesn't actually enable interrupts.

Pull Xtensa fixes from Chris Zankel:
"Some important bug fixes.
With the change to uapi, there was a bug introduced that results in an
empty syscall table (mult-inclusion bug). Switching to the generic
thread/execve allowed us to fix a bug we had in vfork()."
* tag 'xtensa-next-20121101' of git://github.com/czankel/xtensa-linux:
xtensa: switch to generic sys_execve()
xtensa: switch to generic kernel_execve()
xtensa: switch to generic kernel_thread()
xtensa: reset windowbase/windowstart when cloning the VM
xtensa: use physical addresses for bus addresses
xtensa: allow multi-inclusion for uapi/unistd.h
After commit b3356bf0db (KVM: emulator: optimize "rep ins" handling),
the pieces of io data can be collected and write them to the guest memory
or MMIO together
Unfortunately, kvm splits the mmio access into 8 bytes and store them to
vcpu->mmio_fragments. If the guest uses "rep ins" to move large data, it
will cause vcpu->mmio_fragments overflow
The bug can be exposed by isapc (-M isapc):
[23154.818733] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
[ ......]
[23154.858083] Call Trace:
[23154.859874] [<ffffffffa04f0e17>] kvm_get_cr8+0x1d/0x28 [kvm]

Actually, we can use one mmio_fragment to store a large mmio access then
split it when we pass the mmio-exit-info to userspace. After that, we only
need two entries to store mmio info for the cross-mmio pages access

As Mukesh explained it, the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_ALL allows the
hypervisor to do a TLB flush on all active vCPUs. If instead
we were using the generic one (which ends up being xen_flush_tlb)
we end up making the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_LOCAL hypercall. But
before we make that hypercall the kernel will IPI all of the
vCPUs (even those that were asleep from the hypervisor
perspective). The end result is that we needlessly wake them
up and do a TLB flush when we can just let the hypervisor
do it correctly.
This patch gives around 50% speed improvement when migrating
idle guest's from one host to another.
