9ffb83bcc5 [SBUSFB]: implement ->compat_ioctl
This patch adds a new function, sbusfb_compat_ioctl() to
drivers/video/sbuslib.c and uses it as compat_ioctl in all sbus fb
drivers

This remove the last per-arch compat ioctl bits in
arch/sparc64/kernel/ioctl32.c so it would be nice if people could test
if this actually copiles and works and if yes apply it :)

We had similar problems with other ioctls where userspace did things
like that.  What we did there was to put the compat handler to generic
code.  The patch below does that, adding a big comment about what's
going on and removing the COMPAT_IOCTL entires for these on powerpc
that not only weren't ever useful but are duplicated now aswell.

3beb207712 [BLOCK] elevator: elv_latter/former_request update
With generic dispatch queue update, implicit former/latter request
handling using rq->queuelist.prev/next doesn't work as expected
anymore.  Also, the only iosched dependent on this feature was
noop-iosched and it has been reimplemented to have its own
latter/former methods.  This patch removes implicit former/latter
handling.

5a7c47eefb [BLOCK] noop-iosched: reimplementation of request dispatching
The original implementation directly used dispatch queue.  As new
generic dispatch queue imposes stricter rules over ioscheds and
dispatch queue usage, this direct use becomes somewhat problematic.
This patch reimplements noop-iosched such that it complies to generic
iosched model better.  Request merging with q->last_merge and
rq->queuelist.prev/next work again now.

15853af9f0 [BLOCK] Implement elv_drain_elevator for improved switch error detection
This patch adds request_queue->nr_sorted which keeps the number of
requests in the iosched and implement elv_drain_elevator which
performs forced dispatching.  elv_drain_elevator checks whether
iosched actually dispatches all requests it has and prints error
message if it doesn't.  As buggy forced dispatching can result in
wrong barrier operations, I think this extra check is worthwhile.

b8ea2cb512 [BLOCK] elevator init fixes
I got a panic in the elevator code, backtrace :

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000060
..
EIP is at elevator_put+0x0/0x30 (null elevator_type passed)
..
elevator_init+0x38
blk_init_queu_node+0xc9
floppy_init+0xdb
do_initcalls+0x23
init+0x10a
init+0x0

Clearly if the kmalloc here fails, e->elevator_type is not yet set; this
appears to be the correct fix, but I think I probably hit the second case
due to a race condition.  Someone more familiar with the elevator code
should look at this more closely until I can determine if I can reproduce.

On ia64, it is possible to get NaT Consumption Fault and a kernel panic
when initializing sctp sideeffect commands arguments.  The union
sctp_arg_t contains different sized elements and when loading a smaller
sized element (32 or 16 bits), it is possible for a speculative load to
fail and result in a NaT bit set which causes a kernel crash.  The easy
way to get around it is to load the largerst member of the union.

It is possible to get to sctp_v4_get_saddr() without a valid

the cached route entry is no longer valid.
However, when responding to OOTB packets we already properly

longer compiles cleanly as a standalone architecture.  Some bits and
pieces still exist as files under the old ppc64 hierarchy, but the old
"ARCH=ppc64" is dead.

So if "uname" says ppc64, that now implies that the default architecture
should be "powerpc".

Noticed by Tom 'spot' Callaway.

Even on uniprocessor we always reported the number of physical
cpus in the system via /proc/cpuinfo.  But when this got changed
to use num_possible_cpus() it always reads as "1" on uniprocessor.
This change was unintentional.

So scan the firmware device tree and count the number of cpu
nodes, and report that, as we always did.
