Based on earlier review comments, we'll no longer try to stick all of our
XO-1 goodies in a single driver. We'll split it into a power management
driver, and an EC/SCI driver.
As a first step, rename olpc-xo1 to olpc-xo1-pm, and make it builtin
instead of modular.

In response to new device tree code in the kernel, OLPC will start using
it for probing of certain devices. However, some firmware fixes are
needed to put the devicetree into a usable state.
Retain compatibility with old firmware by fixing up the device tree at
boot-time if it does not contain the new nodes/properties that we need for
probing. This is the same approach taken on PPC platforms.

This new driver replaces the old PCEngines Alix 2/3 LED driver with a new
driver that controls the LEDs through the leds-gpio driver. The old
driver accessed GPIOs directly, which created a conflict and prevented
also loading the cs5535-gpio driver to read other GPIOs on the Alix board.
With this new driver, we hook into leds-gpio which in turn uses GPIO to
control the LEDs and therefore it's possible to control both the LEDs and
access onboard GPIOs
Driver is moved to platform/geode and any other geode initialisation
modules should move here also.
This driver is inspired by leds-net5501.c by Alessandro Zummo.
Ideally, leds-net5501.c should also be moved to platform/geode.
Additionally the driver relies on parts of the patch: 7f131cf3ed ("leds:
leds-alix2c - take port address from MSR) by Daniel Mack to perform
detection of the Alix board.

THERMAL_HWMON is implemented inside the thermal_sys driver and has no
effect on drivers implementing thermal zones, so they shouldn't see
anything related to it in <linux/thermal.h>. Making the THERMAL_HWMON
implementation fully internal has two advantages beyond the cleaner
design:
* This avoids rebuilding all thermal drivers if the THERMAL_HWMON
implementation changes, or if CONFIG_THERMAL_HWMON gets enabled or
disabled.
* This avoids breaking the thermal kABI in these cases too, which should
make distributions happy.
The only drawback I can see is slightly higher memory fragmentation, as
the number of kzalloc() calls will increase by one per thermal zone. But
I doubt it will be a problem in practice, as I've never seen a system with
more than two thermal zones.

There's a code path in pmcraid that can be reached via device ioctl that
causes all sorts of ugliness, including heap corruption or triggering the
OOM killer due to consecutive allocation of large numbers of pages.
First, the user can call pmcraid_chr_ioctl(), with a type
PMCRAID_PASSTHROUGH_IOCTL. This calls through to
pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough(). Next, a pmcraid_passthrough_ioctl_buffer is
copied in, and the request_size variable is set to
buffer->ioarcb.data_transfer_length, which is an arbitrary 32-bit signed
value provided by the user. If a negative value is provided here, bad
things can happen. For example, pmcraid_build_passthrough_ioadls() is
called with this request_size, which immediately calls
pmcraid_alloc_sglist() with a negative size. The resulting math on
allocating a scatter list can result in an overflow in the kzalloc() call
(if num_elem is 0, the sglist will be smaller than expected), or if
num_elem is unexpectedly large the subsequent loop will call alloc_pages()
repeatedly, a high number of pages will be allocated and the OOM killer
might be invoked.
It looks like preventing this value from being negative in
pmcraid_ioctl_passthrough() would be sufficient. Something like this
might do:

2.6.36's 7e496299d4d2 ("tmpfs: make tmpfs scalable with percpu_counter for

inode->i_lock in place of sbinfo->stat_lock around i_blocks updates; but

Remove those uses of i_lock, and add info->lock in the three error paths

Make the pagevec_lookup loops in truncate_inode_pages_range(),

consistent with each other.
They were relying upon page->index of an unlocked page, but apologizing
for it: accept it, embrace it, add comments and WARN_ONs, and simplify the
index handling.
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() had special handling for a wrapped
page->index + 1 = 0 case; but MAX_LFS_FILESIZE doesn't let us anywhere
near there, and a corrupt page->index in the radix_tree could cause more
trouble than that would catch. Remove that wrapped handling.
invalidate_inode_pages2_range() uses min() to limit the pagevec_lookup
when near the end of the range: copy that into the other two, although
it's less useful than you might think (it limits the use of the buffer,
rather than the indices looked up).

Currently we are keeping faulted page locked throughout whole __do_fault
call (except for page_mkwrite code path) after calling file system's fault
code. If we do early COW, we allocate a new page which has to be charged
for a memcg (mem_cgroup_newpage_charge).
This function, however, might block for unbounded amount of time if memcg
oom killer is disabled or fork-bomb is running because the only way out of
the OOM situation is either an external event or OOM-situation fix.
In the end we are keeping the faulted page locked and blocking other
processes from faulting it in which is not good at all because we are
basically punishing potentially an unrelated process for OOM condition in
a different group (I have seen stuck system because of ld-2.11.1.so being
locked).
We can do test easily.
% cgcreate -g memory:A
% cgset -r memory.limit_in_bytes=64M A
% cgset -r memory.memsw.limit_in_bytes=64M A
% cd kernel_dir; cgexec -g memory:A make -j
Then, the whole system will live-locked until you kill 'make -j'
by hands (or push reboot...) This is because some important page in a
a shared library are locked.
Considering again, the new page is not necessary to be allocated
with lock_page() held. And usual page allocation may dive into
long memory reclaim loop with holding lock_page() and can cause
very long latency.
There are 3 ways.
1. do allocation/charge before lock_page()
Pros. - simple and can handle page allocation in the same manner.
This will reduce holding time of lock_page() in general.
Cons. - we do page allocation even if ->fault() returns error.
2. do charge after unlock_page(). Even if charge fails, it's just OOM.
Pros. - no impact to non-memcg path.
Cons. - implemenation requires special cares of LRU and we need to modify
page_add_new_anon_rmap()...
3. do unlock->charge->lock again method.
Pros. - no impact to non-memcg path.
Cons. - This may kill LOCK_PAGE_RETRY optimization. We need to release
lock and get it again...
This patch moves "charge" and memory allocation for COW page
before lock_page(). Then, we can avoid scanning LRU with holding
a lock on a page and latency under lock_page() will be reduced.
Then, above livelock disappears.
