Fixed a recently introduced problem with the Global
Lock where the underlying semaphore was not created.
This problem was introduced in version 20050114, and
caused an AE_AML_NO_OPERAND exception during an Acquire()
operation on _GL.

The local object cache is now optional, and is disabled
by default.  #define ACPI_ENABLE_OBJECT_CACHE to enable
the local cache.

Fixed an issue in the internal function
acpi_ut_evaluate_object() concerning the optional "implicit
return" support where an error was returned if no return
object was expected, but one was implicitly returned. AE_OK
is now returned in this case and the implicitly returned
object is deleted.  acpi_ut_evaluate_object() is only
occasionally used, and only to execute reserved methods
such as _STA and _INI where the return type is known
up front.

Fixed a few issues with the internal convert-to-integer
code. It now returns an error if an attempt is made to
convert a null string, a string of only blanks/tabs, or a
zero-length buffer. This affects both implicit conversion
and explicit conversion via the ToInteger() operator.

The internal debug code in acpi_ut_acquire_mutex()
has been commented out. It is not needed for normal
operation and should increase the performance of the entire
subsystem. The code remains in case it is needed for debug
purposes again.

From Terence Ripperda <tripperda@nvidia.com>

When doing iounmap don't try to change_page_attr back the guard
page that ioremap added.

Since the last round of change_page_attr changes this would
trigger an BUG because the reference count on the changed pages
wouldn't match up.

The problem would be only visible on machines with >3GB of memory,
because only then the PCI memory hole is below end_pfn and
change_page_attr is used.

Fixed for both i386 and x86-64.

This was actually discovered&fixed by Andrea earlier, but I goofed up
while doing the last ioremap fixes merge and this change got lost.
Poor Terence had to debug it again. Sorry about that.

Patch from Christoph Hellwig to:
- irq_desc and irq_to_vector machvecs.  SN2 has it's own versions,
  but they're the same as the generic ones
- kill do do_IRQ and use __do_IRQ directly everywhere
- kill dead X86 ifdefs
- move some variable declarations around in irq.c to recuce # of ifdefs

When I converted the sn2 code over to the new DMA API, I left the old routines
in place and added wrappers to call them from the generic DMA API functions.
This added an unnecessary level of obfuscation since the generic ia64 code
calls those functions when any of the old style PCI DMA API functions are
called.  This patch rectifies the problem making the code much easier to
understand and hopefully a little more efficient (though I'm sure gcc was
already inlining things pretty well, there were a bunch of unnecessary checks
that I took this opportunity to remove).  It also shrinks the size of the sn2
pci_dma.c quite a bit.

sn2 does early initialization of the SAL so it can use it for early console
support.  Unfortunately, the loop to find the SAL entry point was buggy so
when we tried out new EFI and SAL system table layouts, the loop didn't
terminate.  Here's the fix (doh!, use two different loop counters instead of
one and just return if we find the SAL entry point).

Ok, here you go Tony.  This one fixes the loop and also fixes drm_vm.c.  All
of the bits aside from the efi.h bit are ia64 specific (either under
arch/ia64 or __ia64__), so your tree is probably the right place for all of
it.
 
This patch adds efi_range_is_wc() to efi.h.  It's used to determine whether an
address range can be mapped with the write coalescing attribute.  It also
fixes up some ia64 specific callers to use the new routine instead of
unconditionally calling pgprot_writecombined, which can be dangerous if used
on ranges that don't support it.

Problem:
	There exists a case where we stop monitoring, i.e. clear
	psr.pp/dcr.pp, via IPI. This is when the stop is triggered
	by a close(), either explicit in the application or implicit
	via exit_files(). The IPI is necessary because at the time the
	thread (controlling the context) issues a close() it may not run
	on the CPU the context is bound to. Yet the call must succeed,
	hence we need to propagate the call to the right CPU.
	But what is the problem then?
	Under IPI, we invoke a perfmon routine which clear the kernel
	(live) kernel psr.pp bit and also dcr.pp. Then we return from
	the function and execute the kernel exit path which restores
	the interrupted state. Unfortunately, this restores the kernel
	psr from ipsr which now contains a stale value. Therefore
	monitoring in the kernel will be active even though we stopped it.
	You cannot modify the "global" psr in an interrupt routine because
	it will be systematically restored on the way back.
	
Solution:
	We need to patch ipsr.pp in the kernel exit path to reflect the
	kernel value of the kernel psr.pp bit. This must be done only when
	returning to kernel. 

	The proposed patch does patch ipsr.pp such that it is identical
	to psr.pp. The patch is subtle because the exit path does not have
	a lot of free registers and also because we need to schedule for
	a psr read. I had to shuffle  things around a little bit.

	The patch is important because there will be another situation where
	this problem can occur once we incorporate the support for event set
	and multiplexing. In this configuration, you may be in the middle of
	the idle loop and on a timer interrupt, you may stop monitoring.
	Slightly different condition, yet same problem with ipsr.pp vs. psr.pp.


Changelog:
	- update kernel exit path when returning to kernel to copy
	psr.pp to ipsr.pp. This is necesary to ensure that if psr.pp
	was modified during the kernel entry, the change is propagated
	the the psr.pp of the of the interrupted thread. Psr.pp can
	be modified as a consequence of an IPI under certain conditions,
	such as when a system-wide context is closed from a remote CPU.

Special thanks to David for reworking the patch to fit
into the enhanced exit path.

Use srlz.d instead of srlz.i.  Safe because we don't care whether

if it doesn't, it's OK too since the kernel-text is pinned anyhow).

The fixed sized array of pages that are isolated because of 2xECC

to add some bits to page_flags so that pages with errors can be
marked so as to prevent them ever being examined.

When compiling for non-NUMA variable "node" ended up not being used,
which solicits a warning from GCC.  Fix is to evluate cpu_to_node(i)
in place.  This has the effect of doing cpu_to_node(i) twice on NUMA,
but this is init code, so performance is not an issue (and even if
it were, you can just declare cpu_to_node() as being a pure function,
so the compiler can eliminate the second call).

It seems that in ia64_elf32_init, instead of calling return, if we insert
an overlapping vma, we should instead BUG(). We should never get into this
code path, because the vma's are set above PAGE_OFFSET, and thus a
Xmalicious user can not trigger this code path. This change is being
suggested mainly for clarity. Thanks to Stephen Tweedie for pointing out
that returning early in ia64_elf32_init could have unpredictable results.
