The parisc version of the perf code is sufficiently
protected by its own spinlock, no need to use the BKL.

All uses of the big kernel lock in the cris architecture
are for ioctl and open functions of character device drivers,
which can be trivially converted to a per-driver mutex.
Most of these are probably unnecessary, so it may make sense
to audit them and eventually remove the extra mutex introduced
by this patch.

All uses of the BKL on alpha are totally bogus, nothing
is really protected by this. Remove the remaining users

Dave Hylands reports:
| We've observed a problem with dma_alloc_writecombine when the system
| is under heavy load (heavy bus traffic). We've managed to reduce the
| problem to the following snippet, which is run from a kthread in a
| continuous loop:
|
| void *virtAddr;
| dma_addr_t physAddr;
| unsigned int numBytes = 256;
|
| for (;;) {
| virtAddr = dma_alloc_writecombine(NULL,
| numBytes, &physAddr, GFP_KERNEL);
| if (virtAddr == NULL) {
| printk(KERN_ERR "Running out of memory\n");
| break;
| }
|
| /* access DMA memory allocated */
| tmp = virtAddr;
| *tmp = 0x77;
|
| /* free DMA memory */
| dma_free_writecombine(NULL,
| numBytes, virtAddr, physAddr);
|
| ...sleep here...
| }
|
| By itself, the code will run forever with no issues. However, as we
| increase our bus traffic (typically using DMA) then the *tmp = 0x77
| line will eventually cause a page fault. If we add a small delay (a
| few microseconds) before the *tmp = 0x77, then we don't see a page
| fault, even under heavy load.
A dsb() is required after modifying the PTE entries to ensure that they
will always be visible. Add this dsb().

Commit 7cfe24947 ("ARM: AMBA: Add pclk support to AMBA bus
infrastructure") changed AMBA bus to handle the PCLK automatically.
However, in EP93xx clock initialization is arch_initcall which is done
later than AMBA device identification. This causes
amba_get_enable_pclk() to fail resulting device where UARTs are not
functional.
So change ep93xx_clock_init() to be postcore_initcall.

When the PMU is enabled it is valid to have unhandled nmis, two
events could trigger 'simultaneously' raising two back-to-back
NMIs. If the first NMI handles both, the latter will be empty
and daze the CPU.
The solution to avoid an 'unknown nmi' massage in this case was
simply to stop the nmi handler chain when the PMU is enabled by
stating the nmi was handled. This has the drawback that a) we
can not detect unknown nmis anymore, and b) subsequent nmi
handlers are not called.
This patch addresses this. Now, we check this unknown NMI if it
could be a PMU back-to-back NMI. Otherwise we pass it and let
the kernel handle the unknown nmi.
This is a debug log:

For back-to-back nmi detection there are the following rules:
The PMU nmi handler was handling more than one counter and no
counter was handled in the subsequent nmi (see [1] and [2]
above).
There is another case if there are two subsequent back-to-back
nmis [3]. The 2nd is detected as back-to-back because the first
handled more than one counter. If the second handles one counter
and the 3rd handles nothing, we drop the 3rd nmi because it
could be a back-to-back nmi.

During testing of a patch to stop having the perf subsytem
swallow nmis, it was uncovered that Nehalem boxes were randomly
getting unknown nmis when using the perf tool.
Moving the ack'ing of the PMI closer to when we get the status
allows the hardware to properly re-set the PMU bit signaling
another PMI was triggered during the processing of the first
PMI. This allows the new logic for dealing with the
shortcomings of multiple PMIs to handle the extra NMI by
'eat'ing it later.
Now one can wonder why are we getting a second PMI when we
disable all the PMUs in the begining of the NMI handler to
prevent such a case, for that I do not know. But I know the fix
below helps deal with this quirk.
Tested on multiple Nehalems where the problem was occuring.
With the patch, the code now loops a second time to handle the
second PMI (whereas before it was not).

The validate_event function in the ARM perf events backend has the
following problems:
1.) Events that are disabled count towards the cost.
2.) Events associated with other PMUs [for example, software events or
breakpoints] do not count towards the cost, but do fail validation,
causing the group to fail.
This patch changes validate_event so that it ignores events in the
PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF state or that are scheduled for other PMUs.

The dlpar code can cause a deadlock to occur when making the RTAS
configure-connector call. This occurs because we make kmalloc calls,
which can block, while parsing the rtas_data_buf and holding the
rtas_data_buf_lock. This an cause issues if someone else attempts
to grab the rtas_data_bug_lock.
This patch alleviates this issue by copying the contents of the rtas_data_buf
to a local buffer before parsing. This allows us to only hold the
rtas_data_buf_lock around the RTAS configure-connector calls.

When compiling alpha generic build get errors such as:
arch/alpha/kernel/err_marvel.c: In function ‘marvel_print_err_cyc’:
arch/alpha/kernel/err_marvel.c:119: error: format ‘%ld’ expects type ‘long int’, but argument 6 has type ‘u64’
Replaced a number of %ld format specifiers with %lld since u64
is unsigned long long.
