Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

To fix this problem, check ->mm instead of ->active_mm, and this
means:
> So if you test current->mm, you effectively account for mm_users == 1,

And therefore we should be OK.

When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type
"cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct
resource are uninitialized.
Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is
responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it,
not the responsibility of request_resource functuion.
After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields
added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this.

Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask.
It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer

Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
Impact: cleanup, futureproof
In fact, all cpumask ops will only be valid (in general) for bit
numbers < nr_cpu_ids. So use that instead of NR_CPUS in various
places.
This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and
nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.

Based upon a report by Meelis Roos.
Sparc64 SBUS and PCI controllers use a combination of IMAP and ICLR
registers to manage device interrupts.
The IMAP register contains the "valid" enable bit as well as CPU
targetting information. Whereas the ICLR register is written with
zero at the end of handling an interrupt to reset the state machine
for that interrupt to IDLE so it can be sent again.
For PCI slot and SBUS slot devices we can have multiple interrupts
sharing the same IMAP register. There are individual ICLR registers
but only one IMAP register for managing those.
We represent each shared case with individual virtual IRQs so the
generic IRQ layer thinks there is only one user of the IRQ instance.
In such shared IMAP cases this is wrong, so if there are multiple
active users then a free_irq() call will prematurely turn off the
interrupt by clearing the Valid bit in the IMAP register even though
there are other active users.
Fix this by simply doing nothing in sun4u_disable_irq() and checking
IRQF_DISABLED during IRQ dispatch.
This situation doesn't exist in the hypervisor sun4v cases, so I left
those alone.

This is an implementation of a suggestion made by Chris Torek:
--------------------
Something else I noticed in passing: the EX and EX_LD/EX_ST macros
scattered throughout the various .S files make a fair bit of .fixup
code, all of which does the same thing. At the cost of one symbol
in copy_in_user.S, you could just have one common two-instruction
retl-and-mov-1 fixup that they all share.

They can't be used for profiling and NMI watchdog currently
since they lack the counter overflow interrupt.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
When we're idling in NOHZ mode, timer interrupts are not running.
Evidence of processing timer interrupts is what the NMI watchdog
uses to determine if the CPU is stuck.
On Niagara, we'll yield the cpu. This will make the cpu, at
worst, hang out in the hypervisor until an interrupt arrives.
This will prevent the NMI watchdog timer from firing.
However on non-Niagara we just loop executing instructions
which will cause the NMI watchdog to keep firing. It won't
see timer interrupts happening so it will think the cpu is
stuck.
Fix this by touching the NMI watchdog in the cpu idle loop
on non-Niagara machines.

If we do a userspace access from kernel mode, and get a
