CR4 manipulation is not protected against interrupts and preemption,
but KVM uses smp_function_call to manipulate the X86_CR4_VMXE bit
either from the CPU hotplug code or from the kvm_init call.
We need to protect the CR4 manipulation from both interrupts and
preemption.

This is not a regression from 2.6.25, it's a long standing and hard to

OMAP has two include loops in its header files:
asm-arm/hardware.h <- asm-arm/arch-omap/io.h <-
asm-arm/arch-omap/hardware.h <- asm-arm/hardware.h
asm-arm/arch-omap/board-palmte.h <-
asm-arm/arch-omap/hardware.h <- asm-arm/hardware.h <-
asm-arm/arch-omap/gpio.h <- asm-arm/arch-omap/board-palmte.h
Circular include dependencies are dangerous since they can result in
inconsistent definitions being provided to other code, especially if
'#ifndef' constructs are used.
Solve these by removing the offending includes, and add additional
includes where necessary.

Compiling ppc64_defconfig with gcc 4.3 gives thes warnings:
arch/powerpc/sysdev/mpic.c: In function 'mpic_irq_get_priority':
arch/powerpc/sysdev/mpic.c:1351: warning: 'is_ipi' may be used uninitialized in this function
arch/powerpc/sysdev/mpic.c: In function 'mpic_irq_set_priority':
arch/powerpc/sysdev/mpic.c:1328: warning: 'is_ipi' may be used uninitialized in this function
It turns out that in the cases where is_ipi is uninitialized, another
variable (mpic) will be NULL and it is dereferenced. Protect against
this by returning if mpic is NULL in mpic_irq_set_priority, and removing
mpic_irq_get_priority completely as it has no in tree callers.
This has the nice side effect of making the warning go away.

The purpose of nla_parse_nested_compat() is to parse attributes which
contain a struct followed by a stream of nested attributes. So far,
it called nla_parse_nested() to parse the stream of nested attributes
which was wrong, as nla_parse_nested() expects a container attribute
as data which holds the attribute stream. It needs to call
nla_parse() directly while pointing at the next possible alignment
point after the struct in the beginning of the attribute.
With this patch, I can no longer reproduce the reported leftover
warnings.

There really is no reason for a driver to reject a frame on
an A-MPDU queue when it can stop that queue for any period
of time and is given frames one by one. Hence, disallow it
with a big warning and reduce mac80211-internal state.
Also add a warning when we try to fragment a frame destined
for an A-MPDU queue and drop it, the actual bug needs to be
fixed elsewhere but I'm not exactly sure how to yet.

retval = videobuf_mmap_setup(&fh->cap, gbuffers, gbufsize,

ret = __videobuf_mmap_setup(q, bcount, bsize, memory);

The x86_64 pgd_bad(), pud_bad(), pmd_bad() inlines have differed from
their x86_32 counterparts in a couple of ways: they've been unnecessarily
weak (e.g. letting 0 or 1 count as good), and were typed as unsigned long.
Strengthen them and return int.
The PAE pmd_bad was too weak before, allowing any junk in the upper half;
but got strengthened by the patch correcting its ~PAGE_MASK to ~PTE_MASK.
The PAE pud_bad already said ~PTE_MASK; and since it folds into pgd_bad,
and we don't set the protection bits at that level, it'll do as is.

On 32-bit PAE the virtual and physical addresses are both 32-bits,
so it ends up evaluating 1<<32. Do the shift as a 64-bit shift then
cast to the appropriate size. This should all be done at compile time,

Define PTE_MASK so that it contains a meaningful value for all x86
pagetable configurations. Previously it was defined as a "long" which
means that it was too short to cover a 32-bit PAE pte entry.
It is now defined as a pteval_t, which is an integer type long enough
to contain a full pte (or pmd, pud, pgd).
This fixes an Xorg crash on 32-bit x86 with PAE due to corruption of the
NX bit in mprotect due to the incorrect type/value of PTE_MASK reported
by Hugh Dickins:
"Yes, thanks Jeremy: I've checked that each stage builds and runs X on
my boxes here, x86_32 and x86_32+PAE and x86_64. (So even 1/8 is
enough to fix the PAT pte_modify issue, though 2/8 then fixes
compiler warnings.)"

Since 2.6.25 the HID_QUIRK_APPLE_HAS_FN quirk is enabled even for
non-laptop Apple keyboards of the Aluminium series. The USB version of
these don't need Numlock emulation, like the laptop (and Aluminium
Wireless) do, as they have a proper keypad.
This patch splits the Numlock emulation for Apple keyboards in a
different quirk flag, so that it can be enabled for all the keyboards
but the Aluminium USB ones.
If the Numlock emulation is enabled for Aluminium USB keyboards, the
JKL and UIO keys become the numeric pad, and the rest of the keyboard
is disabled, included the key used to disable Numlock.
Additionally, these keyboard should not have a Numlock at all, as the
Numlock key is instead replaced by the 'Clear' key as usual for Apple
USB keyboards.

When a cpu really is stuck in the kernel, it can be often
impossible to figure out which cpu is stuck where. The
worst case is when the stuck cpu has interrupts disabled.
Therefore, implement a global cpu state capture that uses
SMP message interrupts which are not disabled by the
normal IRQ enable/disable APIs of the kernel.
As long as we can get a sysrq 'y' to the kernel, we can
get a dump. Even if the console interrupt cpu is wedged,
we can trigger it from userspace using /proc/sysrq-trigger
The output is made compact so that this facility is more
useful on high cpu count systems, which is where this
facility will likely find itself the most useful :)
