9ce7a25849 genirq: Simplify wakeup mechanism
Currently we suspend wakeup interrupts by lazy disabling them and
check later whether the interrupt has fired, but that's not sufficient
for suspend to idle as there is no way to check that once we
transitioned into the CPU idle state.

So we change the mechanism in the following way:

1) Leave the wakeup interrupts enabled across suspend

2) Add a check to irq_may_run() which is called at the beginning of
   each flow handler whether the interrupt is an armed wakeup source.

   This check is basically free as it just extends the existing check
   for IRQD_IRQ_INPROGRESS. So no new conditional in the hot path.

   If the IRQD_WAKEUP_ARMED flag is set, then the interrupt is
   disabled, marked as pending/suspended and the pm core is notified
   about the wakeup event.

328a4978df genirq: Add a new IRQCHIP_EOI_THREADED flag
The flag is necessary for interrupt chips which require an ACK/EOI
after the handler has run. In case of threaded handlers this needs to
happen after the threaded handler has completed before the unmask of
the interrupt.

The flag is only unseful in combination with the handle_fasteoi_irq
flow control handler.

It can be combined with the flag IRQCHIP_EOI_IF_HANDLED, so the EOI is
not issued when the interrupt is disabled or in progress.

a92444c6b2 genirq: Provide irq_wake_thread()
In course of the sdhci/sdio discussion with Russell about killing the
sdio kthread hackery we discovered the need to be able to wake an
interrupt thread from software.

The rationale for this is, that sdio hardware can lack proper
interrupt support for certain features. So the driver needs to poll
the status registers, but at the same time it needs to be woken up by
an hardware interrupt.

To be able to get rid of the home brewn kthread construct of sdio we
need a way to wake an irq thread independent of an actual hardware
interrupt.

Provide an irq_wake_thread() function which wakes up the thread which
is associated to a given dev_id. This allows sdio to invoke the irq
thread from the hardware irq handler via the IRQ_WAKE_THREAD return
value and provides a possibility to wake it via a timer for the
polling scenarios. That allows to simplify the sdio logic
significantly.

5234ffb9f7 genirq: Get rid of unnecessary IRQTF_DIED flag
Currently IRQTF_DIED flag is set when a IRQ thread handler calls do_exit()
But also PF_EXITING per process flag gets set when a thread exits. This
fix eliminates the duplicate by using PF_EXITING flag.

Also, there is a race condition in exit_irq_thread(). In case a thread's
bit is cleared in desc->threads_oneshot (and the IRQ line gets unmasked),
but before IRQTF_DIED flag is set, a new interrupt might come in and set
just cleared bit again, this time forever. This fix throws IRQTF_DIED flag
away, eliminating the race as a result.

[ tglx: Test THREAD_EXITING first as suggested by Oleg ]

31d9d9b6d8 genirq: Add support for per-cpu dev_id interrupts
The ARM GIC interrupt controller offers per CPU interrupts (PPIs),
which are usually used to connect local timers to each core. Each CPU
has its own private interface to the GIC, and only sees the PPIs that
are directly connect to it.

While these timers are separate devices and have a separate interrupt
line to a core, they all use the same IRQ number.

For these devices, request_irq() is not the right API as it assumes
that an IRQ number is visible by a number of CPUs (through the
affinity setting), but makes it very awkward to express that an IRQ
number can be handled by all CPUs, and yet be a different interrupt
line on each CPU, requiring a different dev_id cookie to be passed
back to the handler.

The *_percpu_irq() functions is designed to overcome these
limitations, by providing a per-cpu dev_id vector:

int request_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, irq_handler_t handler,
		   const char *devname, void __percpu *percpu_dev_id);
void free_percpu_irq(unsigned int, void __percpu *);
int setup_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *new);
void remove_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq, struct irqaction *act);
void enable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq);
void disable_percpu_irq(unsigned int irq);

The API has a number of limitations:
- no interrupt sharing
- no threading
- common handler across all the CPUs

Once the interrupt is requested using setup_percpu_irq() or
request_percpu_irq(), it must be enabled by each core that wishes its
local interrupt to be delivered.

Based on an initial patch by Thomas Gleixner.

8d32a307e4 genirq: Provide forced interrupt threading
Add a commandline parameter "threadirqs" which forces all interrupts except
those marked IRQF_NO_THREAD to run threaded. That's mostly a debug option to
allow retrieving better debug data from crashing interrupt handlers. If
"threadirqs" is not enabled on the kernel command line, then there is no
impact in the interrupt hotpath.

Architecture code needs to select CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING after
marking the interrupts which cant be threaded IRQF_NO_THREAD. All
interrupts which have IRQF_TIMER set are implict marked
IRQF_NO_THREAD. Also all PER_CPU interrupts are excluded.

Forced threading hard interrupts also forces all soft interrupt
handling into thread context.

When enabled it might slow down things a bit, but for debugging problems in
interrupt code it's a reasonable penalty as it does not immediately
crash and burn the machine when an interrupt handler is buggy.

3b8249e759 genirq: Do not copy affinity before set
While rumaging through arch code I found that there are a few
workarounds which deal with the fact that the initial affinity setting
from request_irq() copies the mask into irq_data->affinity before the
chip code is called. In the normal path we unconditionally copy the
mask when the chip code returns 0.

Copy after the code is called and add a return code
IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY for the chip functions, which prevents the
copy. That way we see the real mask when the chip function decided to
truncate it further as some arches do. IRQ_SET_MASK_OK is 0, which is
the current behaviour.

c1ee626428 genirq: Prevent access beyond allocated_irqs bitmap
Lars-Peter Clausen pointed out:

   I stumbled upon this while looking through the existing archs using
   SPARSE_IRQ.  Even with SPARSE_IRQ the NR_IRQS is still the upper
   limit for the number of IRQs.

   Both PXA and MMP set NR_IRQS to IRQ_BOARD_START, with
   IRQ_BOARD_START being the number of IRQs used by the core.

   In various machine files the nr_irqs field of the ARM machine
   defintion struct is then set to "IRQ_BOARD_START + NR_BOARD_IRQS".

   As a result "nr_irqs" will greater then NR_IRQS which then again
   causes the "allocated_irqs" bitmap in the core irq code to be
   accessed beyond its size overwriting unrelated data.

The core code really misses a sanity check there.

This went unnoticed so far as by chance the compiler/linker places
data behind that bitmap which gets initialized later on those affected
platforms.

So the obvious fix would be to add a sanity check in early_irq_init()
and break all affected platforms. Though that check wants to be
backported to stable as well, which will require to fix all known
problematic platforms and probably some more yet not known ones as
well. Lots of churn.

A way simpler solution is to allocate a slightly larger bitmap and
avoid the whole churn w/o breaking anything. Add a few warnings when
an arch returns utter crap.

78f90d91f3 genirq: Remove the now unused sparse irq leftovers
The move_irq_desc() function was only used due to the problem that the
allocator did not free the old descriptors. So the descriptors had to
be moved in create_irq_nr(). That's history.

The code would have never been able to move active interrupt
descriptors on affinity settings. That can be done in a completely
different way w/o all this horror.

Remove all of it.

13bfe99e09 genirq: Prepare proc for real sparse irq support
/proc/irq never removes any entries, but when irq descriptors can be
freed for real this is necessary. Otherwise we'd reference a freed
descriptor in /proc/irq/N
