x86: allow TSC clock source on AMD Fam10h and some cleanup
After a lot of discussions with AMD it turns out that TSC
on Fam10h CPUs is synchronized when the CONSTANT_TSC cpuid bit is set.
Or rather that if there are ever systems where that is not
true it would be their BIOS' task to disable the bit.
So finally use TSC gettimeofday on Fam10h by default.
Or rather it is always used now on CPUs where the AMD
specific CONSTANT_TSC bit is set.
This gives a nice speed bost for gettimeofday() on these systems
which tends to be by far the most common v/syscall.
On a Fam10h system here TSC gtod uses about 20% of the CPU time of
acpi_pm based gtod(). This was measured on 32bit, on 64bit
it is even better because TSC gtod() can use a vsyscall
and stay in ring 3, which acpi_pm doesn't.
The Intel check simply checks for CONSTANT_TSC too without hardcoding
Intel vendor. This is equivalent on 64bit because all 64bit capable Intel
CPUs will have CONSTANT_TSC set.
On Intel there is no CPU supplied CONSTANT_TSC bit currently,
but we synthesize one based on hardcoded knowledge which steppings
have p-state invariant TSC.
So the new logic is now: On CPUs which have the AMD specific
CONSTANT_TSC bit set or on Intel CPUs which are new enough
to be known to have p-state invariant TSC always use
TSC based gettimeofday()

x86: introduce rdtsc_barrier()
rdtsc_barrier() is a new barrier primitive that stops RDTSC speculation
to avoid races with timer interrupts on other CPUs.
It expands either to LFENCE (for Intel CPUs) or MFENCE (for
AMD CPUs) which stops RDTSC on all currently known microarchitectures
that implement SSE. On CPUs without SSE there is generally no RDTSC
speculation.

x86: code clarification patch to Kprobes arch code
When developing the Kprobes arch code for ARM, I ran across some code
found in x86 and s390 Kprobes arch code which I didn't consider as
good as it could be.
Once I figured out what the code was doing, I changed the code
for ARM Kprobes to work the way I felt was more appropriate.
I've tested the code this way in ARM for about a year and would
like to push the same change to the other affected architectures.
The code in question is in kprobe_exceptions_notify() which
does:
====
/* kprobe_running() needs smp_processor_id() */
preempt_disable();
if (kprobe_running() &&
kprobe_fault_handler(args->regs, args->trapnr))
ret = NOTIFY_STOP;
preempt_enable();
====
For the moment, ignore the code having the preempt_disable()/
preempt_enable() pair in it.
The problem is that kprobe_running() needs to call smp_processor_id()
which will assert if preemption is enabled. That sanity check by
smp_processor_id() makes perfect sense since calling it with preemption
enabled would return an unreliable result.
But the function kprobe_exceptions_notify() can be called from a
context where preemption could be enabled. If that happens, the
assertion in smp_processor_id() happens and we're dead. So what
the original author did (speculation on my part!) is put in the
preempt_disable()/preempt_enable() pair to simply defeat the check.
Once I figured out what was going on, I considered this an
inappropriate approach. If kprobe_exceptions_notify() is called
from a preemptible context, we can't be in a kprobe processing
context at that time anyways since kprobes requires preemption to
already be disabled, so just check for preemption enabled, and if
so, blow out before ever calling kprobe_running(). I wrote the ARM
kprobe code like this:
====
/* To be potentially processing a kprobe fault and to
* trust the result from kprobe_running(), we have
* be non-preemptible. */
if (!preemptible() && kprobe_running() &&
kprobe_fault_handler(args->regs, args->trapnr))
ret = NOTIFY_STOP;
====
The above code has been working fine for ARM Kprobes for a year.
So I changed the x86 code (2.6.24-rc6) to be the same way and ran
the Systemtap tests on that kernel. As on ARM, Systemtap on x86
comes up with the same test results either way, so it's a neutral
external functional change (as expected).
This issue has been discussed previously on linux-arm-kernel and the
Systemtap mailing lists. Pointers to the by base for the two
discussions:

- The use of cflags-y were abandoned since we have seen one bug where

PCI: remove default PCI expansion ROM memory allocation
increasing number of PCI slots in large multi-node systems. The kernel
currently attempts by default to allocate memory for all PCI expansion
ROMs so there has also been an increasing number of PCI memory
allocation failures seen on these systems. This occurs because the BIOS
either (1) provides insufficient PCI memory resource for all the
expansion ROMs or (2) provides adequate PCI memory resource for
expansion ROMs but provides the space in kernel unexpected BIOS assigned
P2P non-prefetch windows.
The resulting PCI memory allocation failures may be benign when related
to memory requests for expansion ROMs themselves but in some cases they
can occur when attempting to allocate space for more critical BARs.
This can happen when a successful expansion ROM allocation request
consumes memory resource that was intended for a non-ROM BAR. We have
seen this happen during PCI hotplug of an adapter that contains a P2P
bridge where successful memory allocation for an expansion ROM BAR on
device behind the bridge consumed memory that was intended for a non-ROM
BAR on the P2P bridge. In all cases the allocation failure messages can
be very confusing for users.
This patch addresses the issue by changing the kernel default behavior
so that expansion ROM memory allocations are no longer attempted by
default when the BIOS has not assigned a specific address range to the
expansion ROM BAR. This was done by changing the 'pci=rom' boot option
behavior for BIOS unassigned expansion ROMs to actually match it's
current kernel-parameters.txt description which already implies "off" by
default. Behavior for BIOS assigned expansion ROMs implemented in
pcibios_assign_resources() [arch/x86/pci/i386.c] is unchanged.

dmi_string: out of memory.
On some HP desktops the DMI data include OEM strings (type 11) out of
which only few are meaningful and most other are empty. DMI code
religiously creates copies of these 27 strings (65 bytes each in my
case) and goes OOM in dmi_string().
If DMI_MAX_DATA is bumped up a little then it goes and fails in
dmi_save_oem_strings while allocating dmi_devices of sizeof(struct
dmi_device) corresponding to these strings.
On x86_64 since we cannot use alloc_bootmem this early, the code uses a
static array of 2048 bytes (DMI_MAX_DATA) for allocating the memory DMI
needs. It does not survive the creation of empty strings and devices.
Fix this by detecting and not newly allocating empty strings and instead
using a one statically defined dmi_empty_string.
Also do not create a new struct dmi_device for each empty string - use
one statically define dmi_device with .name=dmi_empty_string and add
that to the dmi_devices list.
On x64 this should stop the OOM with same current size of DMI_MAX_DATA
and on x86 this should save a good amount of (27*65 bytes +
27*sizeof(struct dmi_device) bootmem.
Compile and boot tested on both 32-bit and 64-bit x86.
What's left in processor_32.h and processor_64.h cannot be cleanly
integrated. However, it's just a couple of definitions. They are moved
to processor.h around ifdefs, and the original files are deleted. Note that
there's much less headers included in the final version.

x86: remove __init modifier from header declaration
This patch removes the __init modifier from an extern function
declaration in acpi.h.
Besides not being strictly needed, it requires the inclusion of
linux/init.h, which is usually not even included directly, increasing
header mess by a lot.

This removes all the old code that is no longer used after
the i387 unification and cleanup. The i387_64.h is renamed
to i387.h with no changes, but since it replaces the nonempty

x86: x86 i387 user_regset
This revamps the i387 code to be shared across 32-bit, 64-bit,
and 32-on-64. It does so by consolidating the code in one place
based on the user_regset accessor interfaces. This switches
32-bit to using the i387_64.h header and 64-bit to using the
i387.c that was previously i387_32.c, but that's what took the
least cleanup in each file. Here i387.h is stubbed to always
include i387_64.h rather than renaming the file, to keep this
diff smaller and easier to read.

x86: x86 i387 header cleanup
This moves some code into asm-x86/i387_64.h in preparation for
unifying this code between 32 and 64. The 32-bit versions of
some things are copied in some existing names changed to match
32-bit names and share code. For 64, save_i387 is moved into
an inline from i387_64.c; this matches restore_i387, which is
already an inline, and makes sense since there is exactly one
caller (in signal_64.c). The save_i387 function could use more
cosmetic cleanup, but it is just moved verbatim in this patch.
