Fix order of arguments to compat_put_time[spec|val]
Commit 644595f89620 ("compat: Handle COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in
net/socket.c") introduced a bug where the helper functions to take
either a 64-bit or compat time[spec|val] got the arguments in the wrong
order, passing the kernel stack pointer off as a user pointer (and vice
versa).
Because of the user address range check, that in turn then causes an
EFAULT due to the user pointer range checking failing for the kernel
address. Incorrectly resuling in a failed system call for 32-bit
processes with a 64-bit kernel.
On odder architectures like HP-PA (with separate user/kernel address
spaces), it can be used read kernel memory.

commit ee8dd3ca43f151d9fbe1edeef68fb8a77eb9f047
causes a double free during a probe deletion as the node is never
removed from the list via strlist__remove(), even though it gets
'deleted' (read free()'d). This causes a double free when we do
strlist__delete() as the node is already deleted but present in the
rblist.

powerpc: Make sure IPI handlers see data written by IPI senders
We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more
generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and
continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state. This
happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote()
is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in
smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in
scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in
smp_ipi_demux(). Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see
the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing
for it to do.
In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule()
is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(),
this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux().
The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that
there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and
scheduler_ipi(). In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than
xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers.
Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that
ipi_message is not just accessed locally.
This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the
cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations.
Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had
a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO
store. This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases.
These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as
measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on
different cores of a POWER7 machine.
The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly
is due to Milton Miller.

If the default DSCR is non zero we set thread.dscr_inherit in
copy_thread() meaning the new thread and all its children will ignore
future updates to the default DSCR. This is not intended and is
a change in behaviour that a number of our users have hit.
We just need to inherit thread.dscr and thread.dscr_inherit from
the parent which ends up being much simpler.

a change to dscr_default in sysfs we don't update thread.dscr.
We will eventually update it at context switch time but there is
a period where thread.dscr is incorrect.
If we fork at this point we will copy the old value of thread.dscr
into the child. To avoid this, always keep thread.dscr in sync with
reality.

powerpc/powernv: Always go into nap mode when CPU is offline
The CPU hotplug code for the powernv platform currently only puts
offline CPUs into nap mode if the powersave_nap variable is set.
However, HV-style KVM on this platform requires secondary CPU threads
to be offline and in nap mode. Since we know nap mode works just
fine on all POWER7 machines, and the only machines that support the
powernv platform are POWER7 machines, this changes the code to
always put offline CPUs into nap mode, regardless of powersave_nap.
Powersave_nap still controls whether or not CPUs go into nap mode
when idle, as before.

powerpc: Give hypervisor decrementer interrupts their own handler
At the moment the handler for hypervisor decrementer interrupts is
the same as for decrementer interrupts, i.e. timer_interrupt().
This is bogus; if we ever do get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt
it won't have anything to do with the next timer event. In fact
the only time we get hypervisor decrementer interrupts is when one
is left pending on exit from a KVM guest.
When we get a hypervisor decrementer interrupt we don't need to do
anything special to clear it, since they are edge-triggered on the
transition of HDEC from 0 to -1. Thus this adds an empty handler
function for them. We don't need to have them masked when interrupts
are soft-disabled, so we use STD_EXCEPTION_HV instead of
MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_HV.

This turned out to be due to memory corruption caused by long-broken
PIO code in drivers/mmc/host/omap.c. (Previously, this driver had
been using DMA; but the above commit caused the MMC driver to fall
back to PIO mode with an unmodified Kconfig.)
The PIO code, added with the rest of the driver in commit 730c9b7e6630f786fcec026fb11d2e6f2c90fdcb ("[MMC] Add OMAP MMC host
driver"), confused bytes with 16-bit words. This bug caused memory
located after the PIO transfer buffer to be corrupted with transfers
larger than 32 bytes. The driver also did not increment the buffer
pointer after the transfer occurred. This bug resulted in data
corruption during any transfer larger than 64 bytes.
