2771e9ed47 IB/ehca: Use WQE offset instead of WQE addr for pending work reqs
This is a patch for ehca to fix a bug in prepare_sqe_to_rts(), which
used WQE address to iterate pending work requests.  This might cause
an access violation since the queue pages can not be assumed to follow
each other consecutively.  Thus, this patch introduces a few queue
functions to determine WQE offset based on its address and uses WQE
offset to iterate the pending work requests.

f2c238a0c5 IB/ehca: Activate scaling code by default
Change ehca's Kconfig to activates scaling code as default.  After
several measurements we saw that this feature prevents dropped packets
(UD) in stress situation. Thus, enabling it helps to improve ehca's
bandwidth through IPoIB.

7e28db5d8f IB/ehca: Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks
Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks in 64K page mode,
because kzalloc()'s result address might not be 4K aligned if 64K
pages are enabled. Thus, we introduce wrappers called
ehca_{alloc,free}_fw_ctrlblock(), which use a slab cache for objects
with 4K length and 4K alignment in order to alloc/free firmware
control blocks in 64K page mode. In 4K page mode those wrappers just
are defines of get_zeroed_page() and free_page().

04d03bc576 IB/ehca: Fix eHCA driver compilation for uniprocessor
The eHCA driver does not compile for a uniprocessor configuration
(CONFIG_SMP=n), due to H_SUCCESS and other symbols being undefined.
This fixes it.

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

0f248d9cde IB/ehca: Fix device registration
Move the call to ib_register_device() later, since a device should not
be registered until it is completely read to be used.  This fixes
crashes that occur if an upper-layer driver such as IPoIB is loaded
before the ehca module.

Modifications to the existing rdma header files, core files, drivers,
and ulp files to support iWARP, including:
 - Hook iWARP CM into the build system and use it in rdma_cm.
 - Convert enum ib_node_type to enum rdma_node_type, which includes
   the possibility of RDMA_NODE_RNIC, and update everything for this.
