Previously a program could switch to a compat mode segment and then
execute SYSCALL and it would jump to an uninitialized MSR and crash
the kernel.
Instead supply a dummy target for this case.

It is only used for PAE kernels in set_64bit.
The problem is that due to a old Windows bug many CPUs need magic MSRs
to enable CMPXCHG64, and we can't do that nicely early enough before
it is potentially used.
But since we only need it in PAE kernels so only force the checking
for CMPXCHG65 with PAE.

posix-timers which deliver an ignored signal are currently rearmed in
the timer softirq: This is necessary because the timer needs to be
delivered again when SIG_IGN is removed. This is not a problem, when
the interval is reasonable.
With high resolution timers enabled one might arm a posix timer with a
very small interval and ignore the signal. This might lead to a
softirq starvation when the interval is so small that the timer is
requeued onto the softirq pending list right away.
This problem was pointed out by Jan Kiszka. Thanks Jan !
The correct solution would be to stop the timer, when the signal is
ignored and rearm it when SIG_IGN is removed. Unfortunately this
requires modification in sigaction and involves non trivial sighand
locking. It's too late in the release cycle for such a change.
For now we just keep the timer running and enforce that the timer only
fires every jiffie. This does not break anything as we keep the
overrun counter correct. It adds a little inaccuracy to the
timer_gettime() interface, but...
The more complex change is necessary anyway to fix another short
coming of the current implementation, which I discovered while looking
at this problem: A pending signal is discarded when SIG_IGN is set. In
case that a posixtimer signal is pending then it is discarded as well,
but when SIG_IGN is removed later nothing rearms the timer. This is
not new, it's that way since posix timers have been merged. So nothing
to worry about right now.
I have a working solution to fix all of this, but the impact is too
large for both stable and 2.6.22. I'm going to send it out for review
in the next days.
This should go into 2.6.21.stable as well.

IPoIB connected mode currently rejects a connection request unless the
supported MTU is >= the local netdevice MTU. This breaks
interoperability with implementations that might have tweaked
IPOIB_CM_MTU, and there's real no longer a reason to do so: this test
is just a leftover from when we did not tweak MTU per-connection. Fix
this by making the test as permissive as possible.

Fix a crasher bug in IPoIB CM: once a QP is in the RTR state, a
receive completion (or even an asynchronous error) might be observed
on this QP, so we have to initialize all of our receive data
structures before moving to the RTR state.
As an optimization (since modify_qp might take a long time), the
jiffies update done when moving RX to the passive_ids list is also
left in place to reduce the chance of the RX being misdetected as
stale.

If ib_umem_release() is called after ib_uverbs_close() sets context->closing,
then a process can get stuck in a D state, because the code boils down to
if (down_write_trylock(&mm->mmap_sem))
down_write(&mm->mmap_sem);
which is obviously a stupid instant deadlock. Fix the code so that we
only try to take the lock once.
This bug was introduced in commit f7c6a7b5 ("IB/uverbs: Export
ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() to modules") which fortunately never
made it into a release, and was reported by Pete Wyckoff <pw@osc.edu>.

Code intended to check DMA status was checking DMA command register.
Moreover firmware seems to "forget" to set DMA capable bit for the
slave device (at least in RAID mode but without ITE RAID volumes) so
check device ID for DMA capable bit when deciding whether to use DMA
and remove DMA status check completely.
Thanks to Pavol Simo for the bugreport and testing the initial fix.
This change unfortunately still doesn't fix DMA in RAID mode (which
works fine with IDE it821x) but Alan is working on the missing pieces
(pata_it821x vs libata EH issues).
