afa9fdc2f5 iommu: remove fullflush and nofullflush in IOMMU generic option
This patch against tip/x86/iommu virtually reverts
2842e5bf31. But just reverting the
commit breaks AMD IOMMU so this patch also includes some fixes.

The above commit adds new two options to x86 IOMMU generic kernel boot
options, fullflush and nofullflush. But such change that affects all
the IOMMUs needs more discussion (all IOMMU parties need the chance to
discuss it):

5394f80f92 x86: check for and defend against BIOS memory corruption
Some BIOSes have been observed to corrupt memory in the low 64k.  This
change:
 - Reserves all memory which does not have to be in that area, to
   prevent it from being used as general memory by the kernel.  Things
   like the SMP trampoline are still in the memory, however.
 - Clears the reserved memory so we can observe changes to it.
 - Adds a function check_for_bios_corruption() which checks and reports on
   memory becoming unexpectedly non-zero.  Currently it's called in the
   x86 fault handler, and the powermanagement debug output.

bdfe6b7c68 pm: acpi hibernation: utilize hardware signature
ACPI defines a hardware signature.  BIOS calculates the signature according to
hardware configure and if hardware changes while hibernated, the signature
will change.  In that case, S4 resume should fail.

Still, there may be systems on which this mechanism does not work correctly,
so it is better to provide a workaround for them.  For this reason, add a new
switch to the acpi_sleep= command line argument allowing one to disable
hardware signature checking.

77437fd4e6 pm: boot time suspend selftest
Boot-time test for system suspend states (STR or standby).  The generic
RTC framework triggers wakeup alarms, which are used to exit those states.

  - Measures some aspects of suspend time ... this uses "jiffies" until
    someone converts it to use a timebase that works properly even while
    timer IRQs are disabled.

  - Triggered by a command line parameter.  By default nothing even
    vaguely troublesome will happen, but "test_suspend=mem" will give
    you a brief STR test during system boot.  (Or you may need to use
    "test_suspend=standby" instead, if your hardware needs that.)

This isn't without problems.  It fires early enough during boot that for
example both PCMCIA and MMC stacks have misbehaved.  The workaround in
those cases was to boot without such media cards inserted.

0d9ea75443 powerpc: support multiple hugepage sizes
Instead of using the variable mmu_huge_psize to keep track of the huge
page size we use an array of MMU_PAGE_* values.  For each supported huge
page size we need to know the hugepte_shift value and have a
pgtable_cache.  The hstate or an mmu_huge_psizes index is passed to
functions so that they know which huge page size they should use.

The hugepage sizes 16M and 64K are setup(if available on the hardware) so
that they don't have to be set on the boot cmd line in order to use them.
The number of 16G pages have to be specified at boot-time though (e.g.
hugepagesz=16G hugepages=5).

6b74ab97bc mm: add a basic debugging framework for memory initialisation
Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of
architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering.  While significant
amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data
received from the architecture layer.  This is a mistake, and has resulted in
a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs.

This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation.  It
also introduces a few basic defensive measures.  The validation code can be
explicitly disabled for embedded systems.

This patch:

Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation.

Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required
additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel=
command-line parameter.

The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c.  Ideally other mm
initialisation code will be moved here over time.

584015727a netfilter: accounting rework: ct_extend + 64bit counters (v4)
Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but
it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are
still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters
waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime.

This patch:
 - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure,
 - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(),
 - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n),
 - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs,
 - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit,
 - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter,
 - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT),
 - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT
 - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling.

If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend.
Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area
to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with
acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

da5e09a1b3 ACPI : Create "idle=nomwait" bootparam
"idle=nomwait" disables the use of the MWAIT
instruction from both C1 (C1_FFH) and deeper (C2C3_FFH)
C-states.

When MWAIT is unavailable, the BIOS and OS generally
negotiate to use the HALT instruction for C1,
and use IO accesses for deeper C-states.

This option is useful for power and performance
comparisons, and also to work around BIOS bugs
where broken MWAIT support is advertised.

c1e3b377ad ACPI: Create "idle=halt" bootparam
"idle=halt" limits the idle loop to using
the halt instruction.  No MWAIT, no IO accesses,
no C-states deeper than C1.

If something is broken in the idle code,
"idle=halt" is a less severe workaround
than "idle=poll" which disables all power savings.

6e1cb38a2a x64, x2apic/intr-remap: add x2apic support, including enabling interrupt-remapping
x2apic support.  Interrupt-remapping must be enabled before enabling x2apic,
this is needed to ensure that IO interrupts continue to work properly after the
cpu mode is changed to x2apic(which uses 32bit extended physical/cluster
apic id).

On systems where apicid's are > 255, BIOS can handover the control to OS in
x2apic mode. Or if the OS handover was in legacy xapic mode, check
if it is capable of x2apic mode. And if we succeed in enabling
Interrupt-remapping, then we can enable x2apic mode in the CPU.

200001eb14 x86 boot: only pick up additional EFI memmap if add_efi_memmap flag
Applies on top of the previous patch:
  x86 boot: add code to add BIOS provided EFI memory entries to kernel

Instead of always adding EFI memory map entries (if present) to the
memory map after initially finding either E820 BIOS memory map entries
and/or kernel command line memmap entries, -instead- only add such
additional EFI memory map entries if the kernel boot option:

    add_efi_memmap

is specified.

Requiring this 'add_efi_memmap' option is backward compatible with
kernels that didn't load such additional EFI memory map entries in
the first place, and it doesn't override a configuration that tries
to replace all E820 or EFI BIOS memory map entries with ones given
entirely on the kernel command line.
