This commit adds a routine for finding a device node which has a certain property. The contents of the property are not taken into account, merely the presence or absence of the property. Based on that routine, we add a for_each_ macro for iterating over all nodes that have a certain property.

This implements an optimised mutex fastpath for powerpc, making use of acquire and release barrier semantics. This takes the mutex lock+unlock benchmark from 203 to 173 cycles on a G5. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

After commit 598056d5 ("[POWERPC] Fix rmb to order cacheable vs. noncacheable"), rmb() becomes a sync instruction, which is needed to order cacheable vs noncacheable loads. However smp_rmb() is #defined to rmb(), and smp_rmb() can be an lwsync. This restores smp_rmb() performance by using lwsync there and updates the comments.

Change 2d1b2027 ("powerpc: Fixup lwsync at runtime") removed __SUBARCH_HAS_LWSYNC, causing smp_wmb to revert back to eieio for all CPUs. This restores the behaviour intorduced in 74f06095 ("powerpc: Optimise smp_wmb on 64-bit processors"). Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

In exactly the same way that we updated memcpy() with new feature sections in commit 25d6e2d7 ("powerpc: Update 64bit memcpy() using CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD"), we do the same thing here for __copy_tofrom_user(). Once again this is purely a performance tweak for Cell and Power6 - this has no effect on all the other 64bit powerpc chips. We can make these same changes to __copy_tofrom_user() because the basic copy algorithm is the same as in memcpy() - this version just has all the exception handling logic needed when copying to or from userspace as well as a special case for copying whole 4K pages that are page aligned. CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD CPU was added in commit 4ec577a2 ("powerpc: Add new CPU feature: CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD"). We also make the same simple one line change from cmpldi r1,... to cmpldi cr1,... for consistency. Signed-off-by: Mark Nelson <markn@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

I can't tell why this WARN_ON exists, and there's no comment explaining it. Whether the pmd is present or not, pte_alloc_kernel() seems to handle both cases. Booting a 440 kernel with 64K PAGE_SIZE triggers the warning, but boot successfully completes and I see no problems beyond that.

We have several instances of inline assembly code that use the addic or addic. instructions, but don't include XER in the list of clobbers. The addic and addic. instructions affect the carry bit, which is in the XER register. This adds "xer" to the list of clobbers for those inline asm statements that use addic or addic. and didn't already have it. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

This adds a new backend for the hvc console based on the low-level udbg callbacks. This effectively implements a working runtime console in terms of the simple udbg primitives. This is kind of a hack - since udbg isn't something you really want to be using routinely - but it's really useful during bringup. This can be used to quickly implement a userspace-usable console while you're working on a proper driver for whatever console I/O device the hardware has. Or, it can be used to avoid writing a full blown tty/console driver entirely for quick-and-dirty I/O hardware that will later be replaced by something else.

cx18: Move DVB buffer transfer handling from irq handler to work_queue thread. In order to properly lock the epu2cpu mailbox for driver to CX23418 commands, the DVB/TS buffer handling needs to be moved from the IRQ handler and IRQ context to a work queue. This work_queue implmentation is strikingly similar to the ivtv implementation - for better or worse.

cx18: Use correct Mailbox IRQ Ack values and misc IRQ handling cleanup. The SCB field definitions for Ack IRQ's for mailboxes were inconsistent with the bitmasks being loaded into those SCB fields and the SW2 Ack IRQ handling logic.
