Expose the new lock protection lock.
This can be used to annotate places where we take multiple locks of the
same class and avoid deadlocks by always taking another (top-level) lock
first.
NOTE: we're still bound to the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH (48) limit.

Do as Linus suggested. The lock protection lock is called nest_lock.
Note that we still have the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH (48) limit to consider, so anything

Instead of using a per-rq lock class, use the regular nesting operations.
However, take extra care with double_lock_balance() as it can release the
already held rq->lock (and therefore change its nesting class).
So what can happen is:
spin_lock(rq->lock); // this rq subclass 0
double_lock_balance(rq, other_rq);
// release rq
// acquire other_rq->lock subclass 0
// acquire rq->lock subclass 1
spin_unlock(other_rq->lock);
leaving you with rq->lock in subclass 1
So a subsequent double_lock_balance() call can try to nest a subclass 1
lock while already holding a subclass 1 lock.
Fix this by introducing double_unlock_balance() which releases the other
rq's lock, but also re-sets the subclass for this rq's lock to 0.

The function htab_bolt_mapping() is used to create permanent
mappings in the MMU hash table, for example, in order to create
the linear mapping of vmemmap. It's also used by early boot
ioremap (before mem_init_done).
However, the way ioremap uses it is incorrect as it passes it the
protection flags in the "linux PTE" form while htab_bolt_mapping()
expects them in the hash table format. This is made more confusing by
the fact that some of those flags are actually in the same position in
both cases.
This fixes it all by making htab_bolt_mapping() take normal linux
protection flags instead, and use a little helper to convert them to
htab flags. Callers can now use the usual PAGE_* definitions safely.

When we have an ISA memory hole (ie, a PCI window that allows us to
generate PCI memory cycles at low PCI address) mixed with other
resources using a different CPU <=> PCI mapping, we must not keep
the ISA hole in the bridge resource list.
If we do, things might start trying to allocate device resources
in there and will get the PCI addresses wrong.
This fixes it by arranging to remove the ISA memory hole resource in
this case. This fixes various cases of PCMCIA breakage on PowerBooks
using the MPC106 "grackle" bridge.

The kernel copy of the rtas args struct contains the return
value(s) for the specified rtas call. These are copied back
to user space with the assumption that every value has been
set by the rtas call, which turns out to be not always true.
Thus userspace can see random values and think the call failed
when in fact it succeeded, but for some reason didn't set one
of the return values.
This fixes the problem by zeroing out the return value fields
of the rtas args struct before processing the rtas call.
