idle timing in ns, convert it to timeval, then to us, then to

This patch changes things to
idle timing in ns, convert it to us, and then to pmtimer_ticks.
Just saves an imul along this path, but makes the code cleaner.

These were used before cpuidle by the native ACPI idle driver,
which tracked promotion and demotion between states.
The code was referenced by CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS
for /proc/acpi/processor/*/power,
but as we no longer do promotion/demotion, that
reference has been a NOP since the transition.

In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases,
this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In
this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution
is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware
that the code is emulating.
This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words:
I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The
Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that
actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
(which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
necessarily writable.

1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention;
we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously
shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it
right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting
upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and
i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry))
in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places
in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD
is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories
getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race
prevention.
2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash
the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed.
3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the
right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong)
one. Noticed and fixed.

There is a race in the inotify add/rm watch code. A task can find and
remove a mark which doesn't have all of it's references. This can
result in a use after free/double free situation.
Task A Task B
------------ -----------
inotify_new_watch()
allocate a mark (refcnt == 1)
add it to the idr
inotify_rm_watch()
inotify_remove_from_idr()
fsnotify_put_mark()
refcnt hits 0, free
take reference because we are on idr
[at this point it is a use after free]
[time goes on]
refcnt may hit 0 again, double free
The fix is to take the reference BEFORE the object can be found in the
idr.

The mmap_min_addr value is useful information for an admin to see without
being root ("is my system vulnerable to kernel NULL pointer attacks?") and
its setting is trivially easy for an attacker to determine by calling
mmap() in PAGE_SIZE increments starting at 0, so trying to keep it private
has no value.
Only require CAP_SYS_RAWIO if changing the value, not reading it.

The imx CTS trigger level is left at its reset value that is 32
chars. Since the RX FIFO has 32 entries, when CTS is raised, the
FIFO already is full. However, some serial port devices first empty
their TX FIFO before stopping when CTS is raised, resulting in lost
chars.
This patch sets the trigger level lower so that other chars arrive
after CTS is raised, there is still room for 16 of them.
