On an (even slightly) oversubscribed system, spinlocks are quickly
becoming a bottleneck, as some vcpus are spinning, waiting for a
lock to be released, while the vcpu holding the lock may not be
running at all.

This creates contention, and the observed slowdown is 40x for
hackbench. No, this isn't a typo.

The solution is to trap blocking WFEs and tell KVM that we're
now spinning. This ensures that other vpus will get a scheduling
boost, allowing the lock to be released more quickly. Also, using
CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_CPU_RELAX_INTERCEPT slightly improves the performance
when the VM is severely overcommited.

Quick test to estimate the performance: hackbench 1 process 1000

2xA15 host (baseline):	1.843s

2xA15 guest w/o patch:	2.083s
4xA15 guest w/o patch:	80.212s
8xA15 guest w/o patch:	Could not be bothered to find out

2xA15 guest w/ patch:	2.102s
4xA15 guest w/ patch:	3.205s
8xA15 guest w/ patch:	6.887s

So we go from a 40x degradation to 1.5x in the 2x overcommit case,
which is vaguely more acceptable.

This patch adds support for running Cortex-A7 guests on Cortex-A7 hosts.

As Cortex-A7 is architecturally compatible with A15, this patch is largely just
generalising existing code. Areas where 'implementation defined' behaviour
is identical for A7 and A15 is moved to allow it to be used by both cores.

The check to ensure that coprocessor register tables are sorted correctly is
also moved in to 'common' code to avoid each new cpu doing its own check
(and possibly forgetting to do so!)

The T{0,1}SZ fields of TTBCR are 3 bits wide when using the long descriptor
format. Likewise, the T0SZ field of the HTCR is 3-bits. KVM currently
defines TTBCR_T{0,1}SZ as 3, not 7.

The T0SZ mask is used to calculate the value for the HTCR, both to pick out
TTBCR.T0SZ and mask off the equivalent field in the HTCR during
read-modify-write. The incorrect mask size causes the (UNKNOWN) reset value
of HTCR.T0SZ to leak in to the calculated HTCR value. Linux will hang when
initializing KVM if HTCR's reset value has bit 2 set (sometimes the case on
A7/TC2)

Fixing T0SZ allows A7 cores to boot and T1SZ is also fixed for completeness.

KVM does not have a notion of multiple clusters for CPUs, just a linear
array of CPUs. When using a system with cores in more than one cluster, the
current method for calculating the virtual MPIDR will leak the (physical)
cluster information into the virtual MPIDR. One effect of this is that
Linux under KVM fails to boot multiple CPUs that aren't in the 0th cluster.

This patch does away with exposing the real MPIDR fields in favour of simply
using the virtual CPU number (but preserving the U bit, as before).

Matt found that commit 27a7c642 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr
size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot.  The
reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of
the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA.  While most disk
partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics,
Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit
limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1].

Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk
or 0xFFFFFFFF.  No tool in its right mind would set it to any value
other than these.

  writeback: Do not sort b_io list only because of block device inode

The LRU list changes interacted badly with our nr_dentry_unused
accounting, and even worse with the new DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit logic.

This introduces helper functions to make sure everything follows the
proper dcache d_lru list rules: the dentry cache is complicated by the
fact that some of the hotpaths don't even want to look at the LRU list
at all, and the fact that we use the same list entry in the dentry for
both the LRU list and for our temporary shrinking lists when removing
things from the LRU.

The helper functions temporarily have some extra sanity checking for the
flag bits that have to match the current LRU state of the dentry.  We'll
remove that before the final 3.12 release, but considering how easy it
is to get wrong, this first cleanup version has some very particular
sanity checking.

When reading a single page with cifs_readpage(), we make a call to
fscache_read_or_alloc_page() which once done, asynchronously calls
the completion function cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete(). This
completion function unlocks the page once it has been populated from
cache. The module then attempts to unlock the page a second time in
cifs_readpage() which leads to warning messages.

In case of a successful call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() we should skip
the second unlock_page() since this will be called by the
cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete() once the page has been populated by
fscache.

With the modifications to cifs_readpage_worker(), we will need to re-grab the
page lock in cifs_write_begin().

The problem was first noticed when testing new fscache patches for cifs.

This change complements commit d0da7c002f7b2a93582187a9e3f73891a01d8ee4
and brings clear_ioasic_irq back, renaming it to clear_ioasic_dma_irq at
the same time, to make I/O ASIC DMA interrupts functional.

Unlike ordinary I/O ASIC interrupts DMA interrupts need to be deasserted
by software by writing 0 to the respective bit in I/O ASIC's System
Interrupt Register (SIR), similarly to how CP0.Cause.IP0 and CP0.Cause.IP1
bits are handled in the CPU (the difference is SIR DMA interrupt bits are
R/W0C so there's no need for an RMW cycle).  Otherwise the handler is
reentered over and over again.

The only current user is the DEC LANCE Ethernet driver and its extremely
uncommon DMA memory error handler that does not care when exactly the
interrupt is cleared.  Anticipating the use of DMA interrupts by the Zilog
SCC driver this change however exports clear_ioasic_dma_irq for device
drivers to choose the right application-specific sequence to clear the
request explicitly rather than calling it implicitly in the .irq_eoi
handler of `struct irq_chip'.  Previously these interrupts were cleared in
the .end handler of the said structure, before it was removed.

Not all I/O ASIC versions have the free-running counter implemented, an
early revision used in the 5000/1xx models aka 3MIN and 4MIN did not have
it.  Therefore we cannot unconditionally use it as a clock source.
Fortunately if not implemented its register slot has a fixed value so it
is enough if we check for the value at the end of the calibration period
being the same as at the beginning.

This also means we need to look for another high-precision clock source on
the systems affected.  The 5000/1xx can have an R4000SC processor
installed where the CP0 Count register can be used as a clock source.
Unfortunately all the R4k DECstations suffer from the missed timer
interrupt on CP0 Count reads erratum, so we cannot use the CP0 timer as a
clock source and a clock event both at a time.  However we never need an
R4k clock event device because all DECstations have a DS1287A RTC chip
whose periodic interrupt can be used as a clock source.

This gives us the following four configuration possibilities for I/O ASIC
DECstations:

1. No I/O ASIC counter and no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/1xx (3MIN).

2. No I/O ASIC counter but the CP0 timer, i.e. R4k 5000/150 (4MIN).

3. The I/O ASIC counter but no CP0 timer, e.g. R3k 5000/240 (3MAX+).

4. The I/O ASIC counter and the CP0 timer, e.g. R4k 5000/260 (4MAX+).

For #1 and #2 this change stops the I/O ASIC free-running counter from
being installed as a clock source of a 0Hz frequency.  For #2 it also
arranges for the CP0 timer to be used as a clock source rather than a
clock event device, because having an accurate wall clock is more
important than a high-precision interval timer.  For #3 there is no
change.  For #4 the change makes the I/O ASIC free-running counter
installed as a clock source so that the CP0 timer can be used as a clock
event device.

Unfortunately the use of the CP0 timer as a clock event device relies on a
succesful completion of c0_compare_interrupt.  That never happens, because
while waiting for a CP0 Compare interrupt to happen the function spins in
a loop reading the CP0 Count register.  This makes the CP0 Count erratum
trigger reliably causing the interrupt waited for to be lost in all cases.
As a result #4 resorts to using the CP0 timer as a clock source as well,
just as #2.  However we want to keep this separate arrangement in case
(hope) c0_compare_interrupt is eventually rewritten such that it avoids
the erratum.
