Fundamental model of the current Linux kernel is to lazily init and
restore FPU instead of restoring the task state during context switch.
This changes that fundamental lazy model to the non-lazy model for
the processors supporting xsave feature.

Reasons driving this model change are:

i. Newer processors support optimized state save/restore using xsaveopt and
xrstor by tracking the INIT state and MODIFIED state during context-switch.
This is faster than modifying the cr0.TS bit which has serializing semantics.

ii. Newer glibc versions use SSE for some of the optimized copy/clear routines.
With certain workloads (like boot, kernel-compilation etc), application
completes its work with in the first 5 task switches, thus taking upto 5 #DNA
traps with the kernel not getting a chance to apply the above mentioned
pre-load heuristic.

iii. Some xstate features (like AMD's LWP feature) don't honor the cr0.TS bit
and thus will not work correctly in the presence of lazy restore. Non-lazy
state restore is needed for enabling such features.

Some data on a two socket SNB system:
 * Saved 20K DNA exceptions during boot on a two socket SNB system.
 * Saved 50K DNA exceptions during kernel-compilation workload.
 * Improved throughput of the AVX based checksumming function inside the
   kernel by ~15% as xsave/xrstor is faster than the serializing clts/stts
   pair.

Also now kernel_fpu_begin/end() relies on the patched
alternative instructions. So move check_fpu() which uses the
kernel_fpu_begin/end() after alternative_instructions().

use kernel_fpu_begin/end() instead of unconditionally accessing cr0 and
saving/restoring just the few used xmm/ymm registers.

This has some advantages like:
* If the task's FPU state is already active, then kernel_fpu_begin()
  will just save the user-state and avoiding the read/write of cr0.
  In general, cr0 accesses are much slower.

* Manual save/restore of xmm/ymm registers will affect the 'modified' and
  the 'init' optimizations brought in the by xsaveopt/xrstor
  infrastructure.

* Foward compatibility with future vector register extensions will be a
  problem if the xmm/ymm registers are manually saved and restored
  (corrupting the extended state of those vector registers).

With this patch, there was no significant difference in the xor throughput
using AVX, measured during boot.

kvm's guest fpu save/restore should be wrapped around
kernel_fpu_begin/end(). This will avoid for example taking a DNA
in kvm_load_guest_fpu() when it tries to load the fpu immediately
after doing unlazy_fpu() on the host side.

More importantly this will prevent the host process fpu from being
corrupted.

No need to save the state with unlazy_fpu(), that is about to get overwritten
by the state from the signal frame. Instead use drop_fpu() and continue

Currently for x86 and x86_32 binaries, fpstate in the user sigframe is copied
to/from the fpstate in the task struct.

And in the case of signal delivery for x86_64 binaries, if the fpstate is live
in the CPU registers, then the live state is copied directly to the user
sigframe. Otherwise  fpstate in the task struct is copied to the user sigframe.
During restore, fpstate in the user sigframe is restored directly to the live
CPU registers.

Historically, different code paths led to different bugs. For example,
x86_64 code path was not preemption safe till recently. Also there is lot
of code duplication for support of new features like xsave etc.

Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels.

New strategy is as follows:

Signal delivery: Both for 32/64-bit frames, align the core math frame area to
64bytes as needed by xsave (this where the main fpu/extended state gets copied
to and excludes the legacy compatibility fsave header for the 32-bit [f]xsave
frames). If the state is live, copy the register state directly to the user
frame. If not live, copy the state in the thread struct to the user frame. And
for 32-bit [f]xsave frames, construct the fsave header separately before
the actual [f]xsave area.

Signal return: As the 32-bit frames with [f]xstate has an additional
'fsave' header, copy everything back from the user sigframe to the
fpstate in the task structure and reconstruct the fxstate from the 'fsave'
header (Also user passed pointers may not be correctly aligned for
any attempt to directly restore any partial state). At the next fpstate usage,
everything will be restored to the live CPU registers.
For all the 64-bit frames and the 32-bit fsave frame, restore the state from
the user sigframe directly to the live CPU registers. 64-bit signals always
restored the math frame directly, so we can expect the math frame pointer
to be correctly aligned. For 32-bit fsave frames, there are no alignment
requirements, so we can restore the state directly.

"lat_sig catch" microbenchmark numbers (for x86, x86_64, x86_32 binaries) are
with in the noise range with this change.

Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would
never expire, which is valid.

This patch splits the ktime_t overflow checking into a new

internal checking to use this more strict function.

In that case, del_timer may return true for entries that were

hold references to conntrack entries that were just inserted to such

This patch fixes the issue by adding an independent timer for

Commit c3def943 have added support for
new pci ids of the 57840 board, while failing to change the obsolete value
in 'pci_ids.h'.
This patch does so, allowing the probe of such devices.

When tearing down a net namespace, ipv4 mr_table structures are freed
without first deactivating their timers. This can result in a crash in
run_timer_softirq.
This patch mimics the corresponding behaviour in ipv6.
Locking and synchronization seem to be adequate.
We are about to kfree mrt, so existing code should already make sure that
no other references to mrt are pending or can be created by incoming traffic.
The functions invoked here do not cause new references to mrt or other
race conditions to be created.
Invoking del_timer_sync guarantees that ipmr_expire_timer is inactive.
Both ipmr_expire_process (whose completion we may have to wait in
del_timer_sync) and mroute_clean_tables internally use mfc_unres_lock
or other synchronizations when needed, and they both only modify mrt.

Tested in Linux 3.4.8.

With a low enough MSS on the link partner and TSO enabled locally, the
networking stack can periodically send a very large (e.g.  64KB) TCP
message for which the driver will attempt to use more Tx descriptors than
are available by default in the Tx ring.  This is due to a workaround in
the code that imposes a limit of only 4 MSS-sized segments per descriptor
which appears to be a carry-over from the older e1000 driver and may be
applicable only to some older PCI or PCIx parts which are not supported in
e1000e.  When the driver gets a message that is too large to fit across the
configured number of Tx descriptors, it stops the upper stack from queueing
any more and gets stuck in this state.  After a timeout, the upper stack
assumes the adapter is hung and calls the driver to reset it.

Remove the unnecessary limitation of using up to only 4 MSS-sized segments
per Tx descriptor, and put in a hard failure test to catch when attempting
to check for message sizes larger than would fit in the whole Tx ring.
Refactor the remaining logic that limits the size of data per Tx descriptor
from a seemingly arbitrary 8KB to a limit based on the dynamic size of the
Tx packet buffer as described in the hardware specification.

Also, fix the logic in the check for space in the Tx ring for the next
largest possible packet after the current one has been successfully queued
for transmit, and use the appropriate defines for default ring sizes in
e1000_probe instead of magic values.

This issue goes back to the introduction of e1000e in 2.6.24 when it was
split off from e1000.
