Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant
architectures with kprobes support. This facilitates easy handling of
in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on
kretprobes being present in the kernel.
Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean.
Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

Commit 2f569afd9ced9ebec9a6eb3dbf6f83429be0a7b4
(CONFIG_HIGHPTE vs. sub-page page tables) introduced use of
inc_zone_page_state and dec_zone_page_state in include/linux/mm.h.
Those are defined in include/linux/vmstat.h, but after it includes
mm.h, making it impossible to include vmstat.h since inc_zone_page_state
and dec_zone_page_state then would be undefined.
arch/cris/arch-v10/kernel/time.c does just this, which makes the
CRIS v10 build break with the following error:
...

By changing kernel/time.c to include linux/mm.h, the build succeeds.

Construct Xen guest e820 map with a hole between 640K-1M.
It's pure luck that Xen kernels have gotten away with it in the past.
The patch below seems like the right thing to do. It certainly boots in
a domU without the DMI problem (without any of the other related patches
such as Alexander's).

resolve boot problem reported by Mel Gorman:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/13/404
init_cpu_to_node will use cpu->apic (from MADT or mptable) and
apic->node(from SRAT or AMD config space with k8_bus_64.c) to have
cpu->node mapping, and later identify_cpu will overwrite them
again...(with nearby_node...)
this patch checks if the node is online, otherwise it will not
update cpu_node map. so keep cpu_node map to online node before
identify_cpu..., to prevent possible error.

Current usage of unlazy_fpu() in ptrace specific routines is wrong.
unlazy_fpu() will not init fpu if the task never used math. So the
ptrace calls can expose the parent tasks FPU data in some cases.
Replace it with the init_fpu() which will init the math state, if the
task never used math before.

KVM tries to run as much as possible with the guest msrs loaded instead of
host msrs, since switching msrs is very expensive. It also tries to minimize
the number of msrs switched according to the guest mode; for example,
MSR_LSTAR is needed only by long mode guests. This optimization is done by
setup_msrs().
However, we must not change which msrs are switched while we are running with
guest msr state:
- switch to guest msr state
- call setup_msrs(), removing some msrs from the list
- switch to host msr state, leaving a few guest msrs loaded
An easy way to trigger this is to kexec an x86_64 linux guest. Early during
setup, the guest will switch EFER to not include SCE. KVM will stop saving
MSR_LSTAR, and on the next msr switch it will leave the guest LSTAR loaded.
The next host syscall will end up in a random location in the kernel.
Fix by reloading the host msrs before changing the msr list.

For improved concurrency, the guest walk is performed concurrently with other
vcpus. This means that we need to revalidate the guest ptes once we have
write-protected the guest page tables, at which point they can no longer be
modified.
The current code attempts to avoid this check if the shadow page table is not
new, on the assumption that if it has existed before, the guest could not have
modified the pte without the shadow lock. However the assumption is incorrect,
as the racing vcpu could have modified the pte, then instantiated the shadow
page, before our vcpu regains control:
vcpu0 vcpu1
fault
walk pte
modify pte
fault in same pagetable
instantiate shadow page
lookup shadow page
conclude it is old
instantiate spte based on stale guest pte
We could do something clever with generation counters, but a test run by
Marcelo suggests this is unnecessary and we can just do the revalidation
unconditionally. The pte will be in the processor cache and the check can
be quite fast.

One of the use cases for the supported cpuid list is to create a "greatest
common denominator" of cpu capabilities in a server farm. As such, it is
useful to be able to get the list without creating a virtual machine first.
Since the code does not depend on the vm in any way, all that is needed is
to move it to the device ioctl handler. The capability identifier is also
changed so that binaries made against -rc1 will fail gracefully.

The only tricky part is we need to adjust the PTE insertion loop to
cater for holes in the page table. The PTEs for each segment start on
a 4K boundary, so with 16M pages we have 16 PTEs per segment and then
a gap to the next 4K page boundary.
It might be possible to allocate the PTEs for each segment separately,
saving the memory currently filling the gaps. However we'd need to
check that's OK with the hardware, and that it actually saves memory.

We use n_pte_pages to calculate the stride through the page tables, but
we also use it to set the NPPT value in the segment table entry. That is
defined as the number of 4K pages per segment, so we should calculate
it as such regardless of the IOMMU page size.

Currently the cell IOMMU code allocates the entire IOMMU page table in a
contiguous chunk. This is nice and tidy, but for machines with larger
amounts of RAM the page table allocation can fail due to it simply being
too large.
So split the segment table and page table setup routine, and arrange to
have the dynamic and fixed page tables allocated separately.

The cell IOMMU tce build and free routines use pte_offset to convert
the index passed from the generic IOMMU code into a page table offset.
This takes into account the SPIDER_DMA_OFFSET which sets the top bit
of every DMA address.
However it doesn't cater for the IOMMU window starting at a non-zero
address, as the base of the window is not incorporated into pte_offset
at all.
As it turns out tbl->it_offset already contains the value we need, it
takes into account the base of the window and also pte_offset. So use
it instead!
