19d36ccdc3 x86: Fix alternatives and kprobes to remap write-protected kernel text
Reenable kprobes and alternative patching when the kernel text is write
protected by DEBUG_RODATA

Add a general utility function to change write protected text.  The new
function remaps the code using vmap to write it and takes care of CPU
synchronization.  It also does CLFLUSH to make icache recovery faster.

There are some limitations on when the function can be used, see the
comment.

This is a newer version that also changes the paravirt_ops code.
text_poke also supports multi byte patching now.

Contains bug fixes from Zach Amsden and suggestions from Mathieu
Desnoyers.

f51c94528a x86_64: Use read and write crX in .c files
This patch uses the read and write functions provided at system.h
for control registers instead of writting raw assembly over and
over again in .c files. Functions to manipulate cr2 and cr8 were
provided, as they were lacking.

Also, removed some extra space after closing brackets

abd4f7505b x86: i386-show-unhandled-signals-v3
This patch makes the i386 behave the same way that x86_64 does when a
segfault happens.  A line gets printed to the kernel log so that tools
that need to check for failures can behave more uniformly between
debug.show_unhandled_signals sysctl variable to 0 (or by doing echo 0 >
/proc/sys/debug/exception-trace)

Also, all of the lines being printed are now using printk_ratelimit() to
deny the ability of DoS from a local user with a program like the
following:

main()
{
       while (1)
               if (!fork()) *(int *)0 = 0;
}

This new revision also includes the fix that Andrew did which got rid of
new sysctl that was added to the system in earlier versions of this.
Also, 'show-unhandled-signals' sysctl has been renamed back to the old
'exception-trace' to avoid breakage of people's scripts.

AK: Enabling by default for i386 will be likely controversal, but let's see what happens
AK: Really folks, before complaining just fix your segfaults
AK: I bet this will find a lot of silent issues

196bffa5dc [SPARC32]: Fix rounding errors in ndelay/udelay implementation.
__ndelay and __udelay have not been delayung >= specified time.
The problem with __ndelay has been tacked down to the rounding of the
multiplier constant. By changing this, delays > app 18us are correctly
calculated.
The problem with __udelay has also been tracked down to rounding issues.
Changing the multiplier constant (to match that used in sparc64) corrects
for large delays and adding in a rounding constant corrects for trunctaion
errors in the claculations.
Many short delays will return without looping. This is not an error as there
is the fixed delay of doing all the maths to calculate the loop count.

9585116ba0 i386: fix iounmap's use of vm_struct's size field
get_vm_area always returns an area with an adjacent guard page.  That guard
page is included in vm_struct.size.  iounmap uses vm_struct.size to
determine how much address space needs to have change_page_attr applied to
it, which will BUG if applied to the guard page.

This patch adds a helper function - get_vm_area_size() in linux/vmalloc.h -
to return the actual size of a vm area, and uses it to make iounmap do the
right thing.  There are probably other places which should be using
get_vm_area_size().

Thanks to Dave Young <hidave.darkstar@gmail.com> for debugging the
problem.

a7e96629ef x86_64: fix e820_hole_size based on address ranges
e820_hole_size() now uses the newly extracted helper function,
e820_find_active_region(), to determine the size of usable RAM in a range of
PFN's.

This was previously broken because of two reasons:

 - The start and end PFN's of each e820 entry were not properly rounded
   prior to excluding those entries in the range, and

 - Entries smaller than a page were not properly excluded from being
   accumulated.

This resulted in emulated nodes being incorrectly mapped to ranges that
were completely reserved and not candidates for being registered as
active ranges.

021daae2c2 x86_64: During VM oom condition, kill all threads in process group
During a VM oom condition, kill all threads in the process group.

We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state
after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory condition.

Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad
state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the
application to restart, or otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious that
something has gone wrong.

This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather than just
the one thread.

99253b8e73 x86_64: Move functions declarations to header file
Some interrupt entry points are currently defined in i8259.c They probably
belong in a header.  Right now, their only user is init_IRQ, justifying
their declaration in-file.  But when virtualization comes in, we may be
interested in using that functions in late initializations.

We are seeing corruption of the decompressed kernel.  It is suspected that
this is platform specific as it has yet to be seen on any other x86.  Move
the kernel to the 16MB boundary.

At the start of the function we have this test:
        if (!task)
                task = current;
so further down there's no need to test 'task'.

c673f1a9d9 i386: divorce CONFIG_X86_PAE from CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G
PAE is useful for more than supporting more than 4GB RAM.  It supports
expanded swapspace and NX executable protections.  Some users may want NX
or expanded swapspace support without the overhead or instability of
highmem.  For these reasons, the following patch divorces CONFIG_X86_PAE
from CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G.
