[ARM] 5037/1: Orion: fix DNS323/Kurobox Pro PCI initialisation
Whereas most Orion 5x machine support code would initialise the PCI
subsystem with nr_controllers in their struct hw_pci set to 2, the
DNS323 and Kurobox Pro machine support code had nr_controllers set
to 1.
This was presumably done because on those two machines, the PCI(-X)
controller (nr == 1) isn't used, requiring initialisation of only
the PCIe controller (nr == 0.) However, not initialising the PCI(-X)
controller on boards that don't use it leads to a situation where
both the PCIe and the PCI(-X) controller think that their root bus is
zero, and it messes up IRQ assignment.

use nr_controllers == 2.

x86: disable mwait for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs
The previous revert of
0c07ee38c9d4eb081758f5ad14bbffa7197e1aec left
out the mwait disable condition for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs.
Andreas Herrman said:
It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong.
Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then
depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core.
If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can
enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never
happen.
Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here.
It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU
families like it was introduced with commit
f039b754714a422959027cb18bb33760eb8153f0 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD
Family 10)

x86: fix crash on cpu hotplug on pat-incapable machines
pat_disable() is __init, which means it goes away after booting is complete.
Unfortunately it is used by the hotplug code if the machine is not
pat-capable, causing a crash.
Fix by marking pat_disable() as __cpuinit.

| x86: use the correct cpuid method to detect MWAIT support for C states
remove the functional effects of this patch and make mwait unconditional.
A future patch will turn off mwait on specific CPUs where that causes
power to be wasted.

The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall
personality(PER_LINUX32).
On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance
because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function
lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c).
To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in

[POWERPC] vmemmap fixes to use smaller pages
This changes vmemmap to use a different region (region 0xf) of the
address space, and to configure the page size of that region
dynamically at boot.
The problem with the current approach of always using 16M pages is that
it's not well suited to machines that have small amounts of memory such
as small partitions on pseries, or PS3's.
In fact, on the PS3, failure to allocate the 16M page backing vmmemmap
tends to prevent hotplugging the HV's "additional" memory, thus limiting
the available memory even more, from my experience down to something
like 80M total, which makes it really not very useable.
The logic used by my match to choose the vmemmap page size is:
- If 16M pages are available and there's 1G or more RAM at boot,
use that size.
- Else if 64K pages are available, use that
- Else use 4K pages
I've tested on a POWER6 (16M pages) and on an iSeries POWER3 (4K pages)
and it seems to work fine.
Note that I intend to change the way we organize the kernel regions &
SLBs so the actual region will change from 0xf back to something else at
one point, as I simplify the SLB miss handler, but that will be for a
later patch.
