<id>urn:sha1:fe956a1d4081ce1a959f87df397a15e252201f10</id>
<content type='text'>
slots-fan on G5 Xserve is always running at full speed with windfarm_rm31
driver, resulting in a very high acoustic noise level. It seems the fan
parameters are incorrect, and have been copied from the Drive Bay fan
(RPM, not present on rm31) of the legacy therm_pm72 driver. This patch
changes the parameters to match the Slots fan (PWM) of therm_pm72. With
the patch, slots-fan speed drops from 99% to 19% during normal use,
and slots-temp settle to ~42'C.

A few new i2c-drivers came into the kernel which clear the clientdata-pointer
on exit or error. This is obsolete meanwhile, the core will do it.

cuda_init_via() is called from find_via_cuda() only, which is __init.

<title>powerpc/windfarm: Fix overtemperature clearing</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4bb297113433048169c30a32c1e58b6a1b61b621</id>
<content type='text'>
With pm81/pm91/pm121, when the overtemperature state is entered, and
when it remains on after skipped ticks, the driver will try to leave
it too soon (immediately on the next tick). This is because the active
FAILURE_OVERTEMP state is not visible in "new_failure" variable of the
current tick. Furthermore, the driver will keep trying to clear condition
in subsequent ticks as FAILURE_OVERTEMP remains set in the "last_failure"
variable. These will start to trigger WARNINGS from windfarm core:

[  100.082735] windfarm: Clamping CPU frequency to minimum !
[  100.108132] windfarm: Overtemp condition detected !
[  101.952908] windfarm: Overtemp condition cleared !
[...]
[  102.980388] WARNING: at drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c:463

[  103.982227] WARNING: at drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c:463

[...]
[  106.977913] WARNING: at drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c:463

Fix by adding a helper global variable. We leave the overtemp state only
after all failure bits have been cleared.

I saw this error on iMac G5 iSight (pm121). Also pm81/pm91 are fixed
based on the observation that these are almost identical/copy-pasted code.

Pull powerpc update from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "The main highlights this time around are:

   - A pile of addition POWER8 bits and nits, such as updated
     performance counter support (Michael Ellerman), new branch history
     buffer support (Anshuman Khandual), base support for the new PCI
     host bridge when not using the hypervisor (Gavin Shan) and other
     random related bits and fixes from various contributors.

   - Some rework of our page table format by Aneesh Kumar which fixes a
     thing or two and paves the way for THP support.  THP itself will
     not make it this time around however.

   - More Freescale updates, including Altivec support on the new e6500
     cores, new PCI controller support, and a pile of new boards support
     and updates.

   - The usual batch of trivial cleanups &amp; fixes"

<content type='text'>
The only part of proc_dir_entry the code outside of fs/proc
really cares about is PDE(inode)-&gt;data.  Provide a helper
for that; static inline for now, eventually will be moved
to fs/proc, along with the knowledge of struct proc_dir_entry
layout.

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "So from the depth of frozen Minnesota, here's the powerpc pull request
  for 3.9.  It has a few interesting highlights, in addition to the
  usual bunch of bug fixes, minor updates, embedded device tree updates
  and new boards:

   - Hand tuned asm implementation of SHA1 (by Paulus &amp; Michael
     Ellerman)

   - Support for Doorbell interrupts on Power8 (kind of fast
     thread-thread IPIs) by Ian Munsie

   - Long overdue cleanup of the way we handle relocation of our open
     firmware trampoline (prom_init.c) on 64-bit by Anton Blanchard

   - Support for saving/restoring &amp; context switching the PPR (Processor
     Priority Register) on server processors that support it.  This
     allows the kernel to preserve thread priorities established by
     userspace.  By Haren Myneni.

   - DAWR (new watchpoint facility) support on Power8 by Michael Neuling

   - Ability to change the DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) which
     controls cache prefetching on a running process via ptrace by
     Alexey Kardashevskiy

   - Support for context switching the TAR register on Power8 (new
     branch target register meant to be used by some new specific
     userspace perf event interrupt facility which is yet to be enabled)
     by Ian Munsie.

   - Improve preservation of the CFAR register (which captures the
     origin of a branch) on various exception conditions by Paulus.

   - Move the Bestcomm DMA driver from arch powerpc to drivers/dma where
     it belongs by Philippe De Muyter

   - Support for Transactional Memory on Power8 by Michael Neuling
     (based on original work by Matt Evans).  For those curious about
     the feature, the patch contains a pretty good description."

(See commit db8ff907027b: "powerpc: Documentation for transactional
memory on powerpc" for the mentioned description added to the file
Documentation/powerpc/transactional_memory.txt)
