Following patch ports the cpuidle framework for powernv platform and also implements a cpuidle back-end powernv idle driver calling on to power7_nap and snooze idle states. Signed-off-by: Deepthi Dharwar <deepthi@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>

smt-snooze-delay was designed to disable NAP state or delay the entry to the NAP state prior to adoption of cpuidle framework. This is per-cpu variable. With the coming of CPUIDLE framework, states can be disabled on per-cpu basis using the cpuidle/enable sysfs entry. Also, with the coming of cpuidle driver each state's target residency is per-driver unlike earlier which was per-device. Therefore, the per-cpu sysfs smt-snooze-delay which decides the target residency of the idle state on a particular cpu causes more confusion to the user as we cannot have different smt-snooze-delay (target residency) values for each cpu. In the current code, smt-snooze-delay functionality is completely broken. It makes sense to remove smt-snooze-delay from idle driver with the coming of cpuidle framework. However, sysfs files are retained as ppc64_util currently utilises it. Once we fix ppc64_util, propose to clean up the kernel code.

This patch replaces the cpuidle driver and devices initialisation calls with a single generic cpuidle_register() call and also includes minor refactoring of the code around it. Remove the cpu online check in snooze loop, as this code can only locally run on a cpu only if it is online. Therefore, this check is not required.

Commit d31626f7 ("powerpc: Don't corrupt transactional state when using FP/VMX in kernel") introduced a bug where the uc_link and uc_regs fields of the ucontext_t that is created to hold the transactional values of the registers in a 32-bit signal frame didn't get set correctly. The reason is that we now clear the MSR_TS bits in the MSR in save_tm_user_regs(), before the code that sets uc_link and uc_regs. To fix this, we move the setting of uc_link and uc_regs into the same if statement that selects whether to call save_tm_user_regs() or save_user_regs().

Commit d0847757 switched the generic powerpc iommu backend code to use the it_page_shift field to determine page size. Commit 3a553170 should have initiliased this field for all platforms, however the DART iommu table code was not updated. This commit initialises the it_page_shift field to 4K for the DART iommu.

Pull powerpc mremap fix from Ben Herrenschmidt: "This is the patch that I had sent after -rc8 and which we decided to wait before merging. It's based on a different tree than my -next branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next is based on -rc1) so I left it as a separate branch for your to pull. It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back. This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc. The fix however requires a small change in the generic code. It moves a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late... It was acked by Kirill and Andrew told me to just merge it via powerpc" * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/thp: Fix crash on mremap
