OMAP2/3 clock: convert remaining MPU barriers into OCP barriers
Several parts of the OMAP2/3 clock code use wmb() to try to ensure
that the hardware write completes before continuing. This approach is
problematic: wmb() only ensures that the write leaves the ARM. It
does not ensure that the write actually reaches the endpoint device.
The endpoint device in this case - either the PRM, CM, or SCM - is
three interconnects away from the ARM - and the final interconnect is
low-speed. And the OCP interconnects will post the write, and who
knows how long that will take to complete. So the wmb() is not what
we want. Worse, the wmb() is indiscriminate; it causes the ARM to
flush any other unrelated buffered writes and wait for the local
interconnect to acknowledge them - potentially very expensive.
Fix this by converting the wmb()s into readbacks of the same PRM/CM/SCM
register. Since the PRM/CM/SCM devices use a single OCP thread, this
will cause the MPU to block while waiting for posted writes to that device
to complete.

OMAP2/3 clock: don't use a barrier after clk_disable()
clk_disable() previously used an ARM barrier, wmb(), to try to ensure
that the hardware write completed before continuing. There are some
problems with this approach.
The first problem is that wmb() only ensures that the write leaves the
ARM -- not that it actually reaches the endpoint device. In this
case, the endpoint device - either the PRM, CM, or SCM - is three
interconnects away from the ARM, and the final interconnect is
low-speed. And the OCP interconnects will post the write, who knows
how long that will take to complete. So the wmb() is not really what
we want.
Worse, the wmb() is indiscriminate; it will cause the ARM to flush any
other unrelated buffered writes and wait for the local interconnect to
acknowledge them - potentially very expensive.
This first problem could be fixed by doing a readback of the same PRM/CM/SCM
register. Since these devices use a single OCP thread, this will cause the
MPU to wait for the write to complete.
But the primary problem is a conceptual one: clk_disable() should not
need any kind of barrier. clk_enable() needs one since device driver
code must not access a device until its clocks are known to be
enabled. But clk_disable() has no such restriction.
Since blocking the MPU on a PRM/CM/SCM write can be a very
high-latency operation - several hundred MPU cycles - it's worth
avoiding this barrier if possible.

OMAP clock: track child clocks
Track child clocks for each struct clk. This optimizes traversals of the
clock tree from parent to child, which happens during rate propagation, and
in the future, clock notifiers.
Previously, parent-to-child traversals sequentially scanned the entire
clock list at each step to determine the children of a particular
clock node. Now each struct clk maintains a clock list of its
children. For a DPLL3_M2_CK rate change, this converts what were
about O(6*180*2) operations into O(6*6*2) operations. The savings
will be even more significant after the future notifier patches:
something like O(6*180*6) to O(6*6*6).
The price paid is additional runtime memory consumption - 8 bytes per
clock and 16 bytes per child clock - roughly 4.5KiB on OMAP3. The
memory comes mostly from bootmem, since initial clock registration
takes place before slab is ready. Several other operations will take
slightly more time due the extra bookkeeping: clk_register(),
clk_unregister(), clk_set_parent(), and omap2_init_clksel_parent().

Also add a new clock flag, RECALC_ON_ENABLE, which causes the clock

edac: fix edac core deadlock when removing a device
When deleting an edac device, we have to wait for its edac_dev.work to be
completed before deleting the whole edac_dev structure. Since we have no
idea which work in current edac_poller's workqueue is the work we are
conerned about, we wait for all work in the edac_poller's workqueue to be
proceseed. This is done via flush_cpu_workqueue() which inserts a
wq_barrier into the tail of the workqueue and then sleeping on the
completion of this wq_barrier. The edac_poller will wake up sleepers when
it is found.
EDAC core creates only one kernel worker thread, edac_poller, to run the
works of all current edac devices. They share the same callback function
of edac_device_workq_function(), which would grab the mutex of
device_ctls_mutex first before it checks the device. This is exactly
where edac_poller and rmmod would have a great chance to deadlock.
In below call trace of rmmod > ... >
edac_device_del_device >
edac_device_workq_teardown > flush_workqueue > flush_cpu_workqueue,
device_ctls_mutex would have already been grabbed by
edac_device_del_device(). So, on one hand rmmod would sleep on the
completion of a wq_barrier, holding device_ctls_mutex; on the other hand
edac_poller would be blocked on the same mutex when it's running any one
of works of existing edac evices(Note, this edac_dev.work is likely to be
totally irrelevant to the one that is being removed right now)and never
would have a chance to run the work of above wq_barrier to wake rmmod up.
edac_device_workq_teardown() should not be called within the critical
region of device_ctls_mutex. Just like is done in edac_pci_del_device()
and edac_mc_del_mc(), where edac_pci_workq_teardown() and
edac_mc_workq_teardown() are called after related mutex are released.
Moreover, an edac_dev.work should check first if it is being removed. If
this is the case, then it should bail out immediately. Since not all of
existing edac devices are to be removed, this "shutting flag" should be
contained to edac device being removed. The current edac_dev.op_state can
be used to serve this purpose.
The original deadlock problem and the solution have been witnessed and
tested on actual hardware. Without the solution, rmmod an edac driver
would result in below deadlock:

so we need __module_get(newsock->ops->owner) code after call kernel_accept()
by hand.
In sunrpc, the module refcount is missing to hold. So this cause kernel panic.
Used following script to reproduct:
while [ 1 ];
do
mount -t nfs4 192.168.0.19:/ /mnt
touch /mnt/file
umount /mnt
lsmod | grep ipv6
done
This patch fixed the problem by add __module_get(newsock->ops->owner) to
kernel_accept(). So we do not need to used __module_get(newsock->ops->owner)
in every place when used kernel_accept().

x86 gart: don't complain if no AMD GART found
Impact: remove annoying bootup printk
It's perfectly normal for no AMD GART to be present, e.g., if you have
Intel CPUs. None of the other iommu_init() functions makes noise when
it finds nothing.

ALSA: hda - Fix silent HP output on D975
Some desktops seems to have no HP/mic jack detection on the front panel,
which results in the silent output in the recent driver, because the
driver mutes the output (to save power) when no plug is detected.
This patch adds a new model that disables the jack-detection.
I happened to notice that the ibmphp hotplug driver does something
rather silly in its init routine. It purposely calls module_put so as
to underflow its module ref count to avoid being removed from the
kernel. This is bad practice, and wrong, since it provides a window for
subsequent module_gets to reset the refcount to zero, allowing an unload
to race in and cause all sorts of mysterious panics. If the module is
unsafe to load, simply omitting the module_exit parameter is sufficient
to prevent the kernel from allowing the unload.
