A bug in the assembly code of the vdso can cause gettimeofday() to hang
or to return incorrect results. The wrong register was used to test for
pending updates of the calibration variables and to create a dependency
for subsequent loads. This fixes it.

Some hotplug driver functions were migrated to the kernel for use by EEH
in commit 2bf6a8fa.

Previously, the PCI Hotplug module had been changed to use the new
OFDT-based PCI probe when appropriate:
5fa80fcd

When rpaphp_pci_config_slot() was moved from the rpaphp driver to the
new kernel function pcibios_add_pci_devices(), the OFDT-based probe
stuff was dropped.  This patch restores it.

The nfnetlink_log infrastructure changes broke compatiblity of the LOG
targets. They currently use whatever log backend was registered first,
which means that if ipt_ULOG was loaded first, no messages will be printed
to the ring buffer anymore.

Restore compatiblity by using the old log functions by default and only use
the nf_log backend if the user explicitly said so.

The only reason post_input exists at all is that it gives us the
potential to adjust the checksums incrementally in future which
we ought to do.

However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the
checksums without using this post_input stuff at all.  The crucial
point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered
when adjusting checksums.  What's more, the checksum adjustment
comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums.

We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :)
When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum
is currently unused.  All we have to do is to make that the checksum
adjustment and voila, there goes all the post_input and decap structures!

I've left in the decap data structures for now since it's intricately
woven into the sec_path stuff.  We can kill them later too.

A recent change requires cpu_possible_map to be initialized before
smp_sched_init() but most MIPS platforms were initializing their
processors in the prom_prepare_cpus callback of smp_prepare_cpus.  The
simple fix of calling prom_prepare_cpus from one of the earlier SMP
initialization hooks doesn't work well either since IPIs may require
init_IRQ() to have completed, so bit the bullet and split
prom_prepare_cpus into two initialization functions, plat_smp_setup
which is called early from setup_arch and plat_prepare_cpus called where
prom_prepare_cpus used to be called.

Commit 9c869eda broke voyager again
rather subtly because it already had its own topology exporting
functions, so now each CPU gets registered twice.

I think we can actually use the generic ones, so I don't propose
reverting it.  The attached should eliminate the voyager topology
functions in favour of the generic ones.

I also added a define to ensure voyager is never hotplug CPU (we don't
have the support in the SMP harness).

The previous experiment for using apicmaintimer on ATI systems didn't
work out very well.  In particular laptops with C2/C3 support often
don't let it tick during idle, which makes it useless.  There were also
some other bugs that made the apicmaintimer often not used at all.

I tried some other experiments - running timer over RTC and some other
things but they didn't really work well neither.

I rechecked the specs now and it turns out this simple change is
actually enough to avoid the double ticks on the ATI systems.  We just
turn off IRQ 0 in the 8254 and only route it directly using the IO-APIC.

I tested it on a few ATI systems and it worked there.  In fact it worked
on all chipsets (NVidia, Intel, AMD, ATI) I tried it on.

According to the ACPI spec routing should always work through the
IO-APIC so I think it's the correct thing to do anyways (and most of the
old gunk in check_timer should be thrown away for x86-64).

But for 2.6.16 it's best to do a fairly minimal change:
 - Use the known to be working everywhere-but-ATI IRQ0 both over 8254
   and IO-APIC setup everywhere
 - Except on ATI disable IRQ0 in the 8254
 - Remove the code to select apicmaintimer on ATI chipsets
 - Add some boot options to allow to override this (just paranoia)

In 2.6.17 I hope to switch the default over to this for everybody.

SMP time selection originally ran after all CPUs were brought up because
it needed to know the number of CPUs to decide if it needs an MP safe
timer or not.

This is not needed anymore because we know present CPUs early.

This fixes a couple of problems:
 - apicmaintimer didn't always work because it relied on state that was
   set up time_init_gtod too late.
 - The output for the used timer in early kernel log was misleading
   because time_init_gtod could actually change it later.  Now always
   print the final timer choice

ACPI is initialized very early on x86-64, before the DMI code is
initialized.  This means it would often discover a 0 year and then turn
off ACPI because it thought the BIOS was too old.  Some systems don't
boot without ACPI so this was a problem.

I have a full fix by adding new very early DMI detection, but it needs
more testing before it can be merged.  For 2.6.16 let's just turn the
check off.  It never made much sense anyways because there are no x86-64
systems older than 2002 or so and they generally all have working ACPI.
