This is a clean up patch that includes the following changes:
-Some comments were added to clarify the code based on feedback
from the community.
-The write_pm_cntrl() and set_count_mode() were passed a
structure element from a global variable. The argument was
removed so the functions now just operate on the global directly.
-The set_pm_event() function call in the cell_virtual_cntr()
routine was moved to a for-loop before the for_each_cpu loop

I found an exploit in current kernel.
Currently, there is no range check about mmapping "/mem" node in
spufs. Thus, an application can access privilege memory region.
In case this kernel already worked on a public server, I send this
information only here.
If there are such servers in somewhere, please replace it, ASAP.

For SCHED_RR tasks we can do some really trivial timeslicing. Basically
we fire up a time for every scheduler tick that searches for a higher
or same priority thread that is on the runqueue and if there is one
context switches to it. Because we can't lock spus from timer context
we actually run this from a delayed runqueue instead of a timer.
A nice optimization would be to skip the actual priority bitmap search
when there are less contexts than physical spus available. To implement
this I need a so far unpublished patch from Andre, and it will be added
after we have that patch in.
Note that right now we only do the time slicing for SCHED_RR tasks.
The code would work for SCHED_OTHER tasks aswell, but their prio
value is defered from the one the PPU thread has at time of spu_run,
and using this for spu scheduling decisions would make the code very
unfair. SCHED_OTHER support will be enabled once we the spu scheduler
knows how to calculcate cpu_context.prio (very soon)

This is the biggest patch in this series, and it reworks the guts of
the spu scheduler runqueue mechanism:
- instead of embedding a waitqueue in the runqueue there is now a
simple doubly-linked list, the actual wakeups happen by reusing
the stop_wq in the spu context (maybe we should rename it one day)
- spu_free and spu_prio_wakeup are merged into a single spu_reschedule
function
- various functionality is split out into small helpers, and kerneldoc
comments are added in various places to document what's going on.
- spu_activate is rewritten into a tight loop by removing test for
various impossible conditions and using the infrastructure in this
patch.

It looks like we've had some serious bitrot there mostly due to tracking
of address_space's of mmap'ed files getting out of sync with the actual
mmap code. The mfc, mss and psmap were not tracked properly and thus
not invalidated on context switches (oops !)
I also removed the various file->f_mapping = inode->i_mapping;
assignments that were done in the other open() routines since that
is already done for us by __dentry_open.
One improvement we might want to do later is to assign the various
ctx-> fields at mmap time instead of file open/close time so that we
don't call unmap_mapping_range() on thing that have not been mmap'ed
Finally, I added some smp_wmb's after assigning the ctx-> fields to make
sure they are visible to other CPUs. I don't think this is really
necessary as I suspect locking in the fs layer will make that happen
anyway but better safe than sorry.

This patch removes the need for struct page for SPE local store
and registers from spufs. It also makes the locking much more
obvious and no longer relying on the truncate logic black magic
for protecting against races between unmap_mapping_range() and
new pages faulted in. It does so by switching to a nopfn() handler
and using the new vm_insert_pfn() to setup the PTEs itself while
holding a lock on the SPE.
The nice thing is that this patch actually removes a lot more code
than it adds :-)

This adds a platform specific spu management abstraction and the coresponding
routines to support the IBM Cell Blade. It also removes the hypervisor only
resources that were included in struct spu.
Three new platform specific routines are introduced, spu_enumerate_spus(),
spu_create_spu() and spu_destroy_spu(). The underlying design uses a new
type, struct spu_management_ops, to hold function pointers that the platform
setup code is expected to initialize to instances appropriate to that platform.
For the IBM Cell Blade support, I put the hypervisor only resources that were
in struct spu into a platform specific data structure struct spu_pdata.

With soft-disabled interrupts in power_save, we can
still get external exceptions on Cell, even if we are
in pause(0) a.k.a. sleep state.
When the CPU really wakes up through the 0x100 (system reset)
vector, while we have already started processing the 0x500
(external) exception, we get a panic in unrecoverable_exception()
because of the lost state.
This occurred in Systemsim for Cell, but as far as I can see,
it can theoretically occur on any machine that uses the
system reset exception to get out of sleep state.

This patch adds SPU elf notes to the coredump. It creates a separate note
for each of /regs, /fpcr, /lslr, /decr, /decr_status, /mem, /signal1,
/signal1_type, /signal2, /signal2_type, /event_mask, /event_status,
/mbox_info, /ibox_info, /wbox_info, /dma_info, /proxydma_info, /object-id.
A new macro, ARCH_HAVE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created for architectures to
specify they have extra elf core notes.
A new macro, ELF_CORE_EXTRA_NOTES_SIZE, was created so the size of the
additional notes could be calculated and added to the notes phdr entry.
A new macro, ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES, was created so the new notes
would be written after the existing notes.
The SPU coredump code resides in spufs. Stub functions are provided in the
kernel which are hooked into the spufs code which does the actual work via
register_arch_coredump_calls().
A new set of __spufs_<file>_read/get() functions was provided to allow the
coredump code to read from the spufs files without having to lock the
SPU context for each file read from.

Add PPU event-based and cycle-based profiling support to Oprofile for Cell.
Oprofile is expected to collect data on all CPUs simultaneously.
However, there is one set of performance counters per node. There are
two hardware threads or virtual CPUs on each node. Hence, OProfile must
multiplex in time the performance counter collection on the two virtual
CPUs.
The multiplexing of the performance counters is done by a virtual
counter routine. Initially, the counters are configured to collect data
on the even CPUs in the system, one CPU per node. In order to capture
the PC for the virtual CPU when the performance counter interrupt occurs
(the specified number of events between samples has occurred), the even
processors are configured to handle the performance counter interrupts
for their node. The virtual counter routine is called via a kernel
timer after the virtual sample time. The routine stops the counters,
saves the current counts, loads the last counts for the other virtual
CPU on the node, sets interrupts to be handled by the other virtual CPU
and restarts the counters, the virtual timer routine is scheduled to run
again. The virtual sample time is kept relatively small to make sure
sampling occurs on both CPUs on the node with a relatively small
granularity. Whenever the counters overflow, the performance counter
interrupt is called to collect the PC for the CPU where data is being
collected.
The oprofile driver relies on a firmware RTAS call to setup the debug bus
to route the desired signals to the performance counter hardware to be
counted. The RTAS call must set the routing registers appropriately in
each of the islands to pass the signals down the debug bus as well as
routing the signals from a particular island onto the bus. There is a
second firmware RTAS call to reset the debug bus to the non pass thru
state when the counters are not in use.

In order to fit with the "don't-run-spus-outside-of-spu_run" model, this
patch starts the isolated-mode loader in spu_run, rather than
spu_create. If spu_run is passed an isolated-mode context that isn't in

This fixes potential races with the isolated SPE app doing a

Also (in conjunction with a mambo patch), this addresses #28565, as we
always set the runcntrl register when entering spu_run.
