ixgbe: configure minimal packet buffers to support TC
ixgbe devices support different numbers of packet buffers either
8 or 4. Here we only allocate the minimal number of packet
buffers required to implement the net_devices number of traffic
classes.
Fewer traffic classes allows for larger packet buffers in
hardware. Also more Tx/Rx queues can be given to each
traffic class.
This patch is mostly about propagating the number of traffic
classes through the init path. Specifically this adds the 4TC
cases to the MRQC and MTQC setup routines. Also ixgbe_setup_tc()
was sanitized to handle other traffic class value.
Finally changing the number of packet buffers in the hardware
requires the device to reinit. So this moves the reinit work
from DCB into the main ixgbe_setup_tc() routine to consolidate
the reset code. Now dcbnl_xxx ops call ixgbe_setup_tc() to
configure packet buffers if needed.

ixgbe: consolidate MRQC and MTQC handling
The MRQC and MTQC registers are configured in the main
setup path but are also reconfigured in the DCB setup
path. The DCB path fixes the DCB configuration by configuring
the SECTXMINIFG gap which is required for DCB pause
to operate correctly.
This patch reduces the duplicate code and does all setup
in ixgbe_setup_mtqc() and ixgbe_setup_mrqc().
Additionally, this removes the IXGBE_QDE. This write never
set the WRITE bit in the register so the write was not
actually doing anything. Also this was to clear the register
but, it is never set and defaults to zero. If this is
needed for SRIOV it should be added correctly in a follow
up patch. But it's never been working so removing it here
should be OK.

vfs: i_state needs to be 'unsigned long' for now
Commit 13e12d14e2dc ("vfs: reorganize 'struct inode' layout a bit")
moved things around a bit changed i_state to be unsigned int instead of
unsigned long. That was to help structure layout for the 64-bit case,
and shrink 'struct inode' a bit (admittedly that only happened when
spinlock debugging was on and i_flags didn't pack with i_lock).
However, Meelis Roos reports that this results in unaligned exceptions
on sprc, and it turns out that the bit-locking primitives that we use
for the I_NEW bit want to use the bitops. Which want 'unsigned long',
not 'unsigned int'.
We really should fix the bit locking code to not have that kind of
requirement, but that's a much bigger change. So for now, revert that
field back to 'unsigned long' (but keep the other re-ordering changes
from the commit that caused this).
Andi points out that we have played games with this in 'struct page', so
it's solvable with other hacks too, but since right now the struct inode
size advantage only happens with some rare config options, it's not
worth fighting.
It _would_ be worth fixing the bitlocking code, though. Especially
since there is no type safety in the bitlocking code (this never caused
any warnings, and worked fine on x86-64, because the bitlocks take a
'void *' and x86-64 doesn't care that deeply about alignment). So it's
currently a very easy problem to trigger by mistake and never notice.

With the current client announcement implementation, in case of roaming,
an update is triggered on the new AP serving the client. At that point
the new information is spread around by means of the OGM broadcasting
mechanism. Until this operations is not executed, no node is able to
correctly route traffic towards the client. This obviously causes packet
drops and introduces a delay in the time needed by the client to recover
its connections.
A new packet type called ROAMING_ADVERTISEMENT is added to account this
issue.
This message is sent in case of roaming from the new AP serving the
client to the old one and will contain the client MAC address. In this
way an out-of-OGM update is immediately committed, so that the old node
can update its global translation table. Traffic reaching this node will
then be redirected to the correct destination utilising the fresher
information. Thus reducing the packet drops and the connection recovery
delay.

The client announcement mechanism informs every mesh node in the network
of any connected non-mesh client, in order to find the path towards that
client from any given point in the mesh.
The old implementation was based on the simple idea of appending a data
buffer to each OGM containing all the client MAC addresses the node is
serving. All other nodes can populate their global translation tables
(table which links client MAC addresses to node addresses) using this
MAC address buffer and linking it to the node's address contained in the
OGM. A node that wants to contact a client has to lookup the node the
client is connected to and its address in the global translation table.
It is easy to understand that this implementation suffers from several
issues:
- big overhead (each and every OGM contains the entire list of
connected clients)
- high latencies for client route updates due to long OGM trip time and
OGM losses
The new implementation addresses these issues by appending client
changes (new client joined or a client left) to the OGM instead of
filling it with all the client addresses each time. In this way nodes
can modify their global tables by means of "updates", thus reducing the
overhead within the OGMs.
To keep the entire network in sync each node maintains a translation
table version number (ttvn) and a translation table checksum. These
values are spread with the OGM to allow all the network participants to
determine whether or not they need to update their translation table
information.
When a translation table lookup is performed in order to send a packet
to a client attached to another node, the destination's ttvn is added to
the payload packet. Forwarding nodes can compare the packet's ttvn with
their destination's ttvn (this node could have a fresher information
than the source) and re-route the packet if necessary. This greatly
reduces the packet loss of clients roaming from one AP to the next.

drm/radeon/kms/atom: fix duallink on some early DCE3.2 cards
Certain revisions of the vbios on DCE3.2 cards have a bug
in the transmitter control table which prevents duallink from
being enabled properly on some cards. The action switch statement
jumps to the wrong offset for the OUTPUT_ENABLE action. The fix
is to use the ENABLE action rather than the OUTPUT_ENABLE action
on the affected cards. In fixed version of the vbios, both
actions jump to the same offset, so the change should be safe.

Commit 916f676f8dc started reserving boot service code since some systems
require you to keep that code around until SetVirtualAddressMap is called.
However, in some cases those areas will overlap with reserved regions.
The proper medium-term fix is to fix the bootloader to prevent the
conflicts from occurring by moving the kernel to a better position,
but the kernel should check for this possibility, and only reserve regions
which can be reserved.
