This adds links to the driver and device inside /sys/class/net/ethX for
PowerPC Virtual Ethernet devices.

This fixes a bug where different partitions were assigned the same MAC
address.  Also, according to Anton, gcc 3.5 didn't like our mac_addr_p
gymnastics, so this ends up fixing that as well.

It is possible to attach a virtual disk to a logical partition on an iSeries
machine so that it is read only to the partition.  This patch allows Linux to
use such virtual disks.

After I sent the recent patch to include/asm-ppc64/io.h which put stronger
barriers in the I/O accessor macros, Paul McKenney pointed out to me that a
writex/outx could still slide out from inside a spinlocked region.  This patch
makes the barriers a bit stronger so that this can't happen.  It means that we
need to use a sync instruction for wmb (a full "heavyweight" sync), since
drivers rely on wmb for ordering between writes to system memory and writes to
a device.

I have left smb_wmb() as a lighter-weight barrier that orders stores, and
doesn't impose an ordering between cacheable and non-cacheable accesses (the
amusingly-named eieio instruction).  I am assuming here that smp_wmb is only
used for ordering stores to system memory so that another cpu will see them in
order.  It can't be used for enforcing any ordering that a device will see,
because it is just a gcc barrier on UP.

This also changes the spinlock/rwlock unlock code to use lwsync ("light-weight
sync") rather than eieio, since eieio doesn't order loads, and we need to
ensure that loads stay inside the spinlocked region.

From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

When I sent the patch to uninline the spinlocks, I inadvertently left out
the change to arch/ppc64/Kconfig which defines the config symbol for
inlining the locks (CONFIG_SPINLINE now).  This patch adds it.  It also
adds a symbol CONFIG_PPC_SPLPAR which enables the code for calling the
hypervisor on shared-processor logically-partitioned system to yield the
physical processor to the lock holder when spinning.  (The code that
depends on this symbol is already present in arch/ppc64/lib/locks.c.)

The patch below moves some declarations from C files into the appropriate

Matt Porter's recent changes broke the compile for non-4xx ppc32 systems,
unfortunately.  I get an error that mfdcr is not defined in

it.

The big-SMP guys are seeing high CPU load due to del_timer_sync()'s
inefficiencies.  The callers are fs/aio.c and schedule_timeout().

We note that neither of these callers' timer handlers actually re-add the
timer - they are single-shot.

So we don't need all that complexity in del_timer_sync() - we can just run
del_timer() and if that worked we know the timer is dead.

Add del_single_shot_timer(), export it to modules and use it in AIO and
schedule_timeout().


(these numbers are for an earlier patch, but they'll be close)

Before:             32p     4p
     Warm cache   29,000    505
     Cold cache   37,800   1220

After:              32p     4p
     Warm cache       95     88
     Cold cache    1,800    140

[Measurements are CPU cycles spent in a call to del_timer_sync, the average
of 1000 calls. 32p is 16-node NUMA, 4p is SMP.]

(I cleaned up a few things and added some commentary)
