It appears that m32r copied the .altinstructions definition from x86
when the architecture was first merged into Linux. m32r doesn't put
anything in .altinstructions, so this is just dead code.
The following block affecting .exit.text/.exit.data, which has a
comment also copied from x86, should also be deleted; the linker
script later discards the .exit.text and .exit.data sections.

Previously, asm/thread_info.h was not usable from linker scripts
because it contains a piece of .macro code. Since that code was only
used in the m32r entry.S, the right fix is probably to move the macro
there.

Previously, m32r's asm/thread_info.h defined THREAD_SIZE differently
for assembly and C code; now that PAGE_SIZE is usable from assembly,
these can be combined. Also, m32r's asm/processor.h redefines
THREAD_SIZE to the same value; remove this redundant definition.

Convert m68k to use GENERIC_TIME via the arch_getoffset() infrastructure,
reducing the amount of arch specific code we need to maintain.
I've taken my best swing at converting this, but I'm not 100% confident
I got it right. My cross-compiler is now out of date (gcc4.2) so I
wasn't able to check if it compiled. Any assistance from arch
maintainers or testers to get this merged would be great.

I also noted that m32r doesn't seem to be taking the xtime write lock

I suspect the alpha arch could even be further improved to provide and

comfortable attempting the more complicated conversion (but I'd be glad to

Add a flag for mmap that will be used to request a huge page region that
will look like anonymous memory to user space. This is accomplished by
using a file on the internal vfsmount. MAP_HUGETLB is a modifier of
MAP_ANONYMOUS and so must be specified with it. The region will behave
the same as a MAP_ANONYMOUS region using small pages.
The patch also adds the MAP_STACK flag, which was previously defined only
on some architectures but not on others. Since MAP_STACK is meant to be a
hint only, architectures can define it without assigning a specific
meaning to it.

Reinstate anonymous use of ZERO_PAGE to all architectures, not just to
those which __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL: as suggested by Nick Piggin.
Contrary to how I'd imagined it, there's nothing ugly about this, just a
zero_pfn test built into one or another block of vm_normal_page().
But the MIPS ZERO_PAGE-of-many-colours case demands is_zero_pfn() and
my_zero_pfn() inlines. Reinstate its mremap move_pte() shuffling of
ZERO_PAGEs we did from 2.6.17 to 2.6.19? Not unless someone shouts for
that: it would have to take vm_flags to weed out some cases.

Since alloc_bootmem() will never return inaccessible (via virtual
addressing) memory anyway, using the ..._low() variant only makes sense
when the physical address range of the allocated memory must fulfill
further constraints, espacially since on 64-bits (or more generally in all
cases where the pools the two variants allocate from are than the full
available range.
Probably the use in alloc_tce_table() could also be eliminated (based on
code inspection of pci-calgary_64.c), but that seems too risky given I
know nothing about that hardware and have no way to test it.

This fixes two places in the powerpc perf_event (perf_counter) code
where 'list_entry' needs to be changed to 'group_entry', but were
missed in commit 65abc865 ("perf_counter: Rename list_entry ->
group_entry, counter_list -> group_list").
This also changes 'event' back to 'counter' in a couple of
contexts:
* Field and function names that deal with the limited-function
counters: it's really the hardware counters whose function is
limited, not the events that they count. Hence:
MAX_LIMITED_HWEVENTS -> MAX_LIMITED_HWCOUNTERS
limited_event -> limited_counter
freeze/thaw_limited_events -> freeze/thaw_limited_counters
* The machine-specific PMU description struct (struct power_pmu): this
renames 'n_event' back to 'n_counter' since it really describes how
many hardware counters the machine has. (Renaming this back avoids
a compile error in each of the machine-specific PMU back-ends where
they initialize their power_pmu struct.)

The body of the mach-ixp4xx arch_idle() is mysteriously
disabled by an #if 0 .. #endif. Normally one would expect
to find a call to cpu_do_idle() there, but that call is
disabled, even though cpu_do_idle() is implemented for
XScale cores (and ixp4xx is one).
The explanation can be found in the ixp42x developer's manual
which states that the XScale core clock and power management
registers aren't implemented on ixp42x [3.5.2.2].
Also, the disabled code has suffered from bit rot:
- it checks hlt_counter which is obsolete, as that variable
and all related code now is private to kernel/process.c
- it passes too many parameters to cpu_do_idle()
So this patch:
- adds a comment before the #if 0 to explain why
cpu_do_idle() mustn't be called on ixp4xx
- removes the obsolete test of hlt_counter and the
obsolete parameter to cpu_do_idle()
This is purely a documentation fixup and changes no
generated code. Even so, it has been tested on an
ixp420 machine (ds101).

This patch does a few simple cleanups of the ixp4xx timer
and clocksource/clockevent code in mach-ixp4xx/common.c:
- ixp4xx_clocksource_init() is static and always returns 0,
which is ignored by its only caller: make it return void
- ixp4xx_clockevent_init(): ditto
- ixp4xx_get_cycles() is only referenced locally: make it static
- use the ixp4xx_timer_irq.dev_id field to pass &clockevent_ixp4xx
to ixp4xx_timer_interrupt() via its dev_id parameter, allowing
the code in ixp4xx_timer_interrupt() to be smaller and faster
