Thanks to David for his help in tracking it down.

  compile the kernel with sibling call optimization
  turned off. There is a problem with all functions
  using the optimization and the asmlinkage attribute.
  The compiler should not perform the optimization on
  these functions because it cannot preserve the syscall
  parameters in the callee. This caused SIGSEGV on programs
  traced with PTRACE_SYSCALL, for instance.

Current SGI Altix systems have a NUMAlink domain size of 1024
compute nodes and are fully cache coherent up to 256 compute
nodes (compute nodes are even-numbered).  Systems larger than
256 nodes are partitioned into multiple cache coherent systems.
This patch exports a partition's coherence id to users via the
/proc/sgi_sn/coherence_id file.

A recent patch caused a warning about not using expressions as lvalues
to crop up in bte.c (or maybe it's just that I'm using gcc-3.4.1 now).
This patch fixes it by creating a temporary to store the register whose
address we want to get and stuff into the per-bte info structure.

In working on the patch to export PCI ROM space via sysfs, I found that the
sn2 PCI code doesn't assign a parent resource to any of the PCI device
resources as it builds them.  This provides a simple fix for that problem.

The biggest change is better overflow handling, partly ported from the AMD64 
IOMMU  code.  This is important for some 3d drivers who make use of this and can 
map a lot of memory.

First it increases the default memory usage of swiotlb to 64MB.
This was the value used in production systems in 2.4 (e.g. in SLES8) and the default
was far too small.  Note this is only allocated when the swiotlb is needed.

pci_map_single will not panic anymore on an overflow. Instead it returns
a pointer to a scratch area and allows the caller to check using 
dma_mapping_error(). It still panics when the overflow buffer is exceeded.

dma_mapping_error support is implemented.

pci_map_sg will never panic now, but just return 0. Near all callers 
of it seem to have proper error checking for this (IDE will even handle
it without erroring out) 

The handling of passing a NULL device is improved, previously it would 
never map in this case. i386 and other architectures assume NULL means a 4GB
limit instead.   This code does this now too.

I added support for swiotlb=force for easier testing.

The newly introduced ->fcntl file_operation is badly thought out,
not to mention undocumented.  This patch replaces it with two better
defined operations -- check_flags and dir_notify.  Any other fcntl()s
that filesystems are interested in can have their own properly typed
f_op method when they need it.

Patch from Marc Singer

The work already done to rectify the timer code initialization missed
a necessary change.  This patch adds a timer initialization function
to the LPD7A400 machine type.  It also makes a small correction to the
kernel configuration that is out of step with the machine specific
Kconfig.

This patch aligns the lh7a40x port with the updated structure of IDE

Normal users shouldn't have access to the raw device anyway
unless they are in the trusted "disk" group, but let's require
RAWIO capabilities. That's what the original SCSI interfaces
did anyhoo.

We probably _should_ just require write access, but that will
need more of a code change to pass down the file descriptor.

We must setup the queue before calling elevator_init(), otherwise the
elevator cannot use the queue members. This really hurts cfq since it
checks ->nr_requests, which is zero at that time.
