The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.
I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.
So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

As Andi pointed out: CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA only disables the ISA DMA
channel management. Other functionality may still expect GFP_DMA to
provide memory below 16M. So we need to make sure that CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is
set independent of CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA. Undo the modifications to
mm/Kconfig where we made ZONE_DMA dependent on GENERIC_ISA_DMA and set
theses explicitly in each arches Kconfig.
Reviews must occur for each arch in order to determine if ZONE_DMA can be
switched off. It can only be switched off if we know that all devices
supported by a platform are capable of performing DMA transfers to all of
memory (Some arches already support this: uml, avr32, sh sh64, parisc and
IA64/Altix).
In order to switch ZONE_DMA off conditionally, one would have to establish
a scheme by which one can assure that no drivers are enabled that are only
capable of doing I/O to a part of memory, or one needs to provide an
alternate means of performing an allocation from a specific range of memory
(like provided by alloc_pages_range()) and insure that all drivers use that
call. In that case the arches alloc_dma_coherent() may need to be modified
to call alloc_pages_range() instead of relying on GFP_DMA.

This facility provides three entry points:
ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long
ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32
ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64
These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:
int do_something(long q)
{
...;
y = ilog2(x)
...;
}
Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:
unsigned n = ilog2(27);
When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.
When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

The powerpc version of pci_resource_to_user() and associated hooks
used by /proc/bus/pci and /sys/bus/pci mmap have been broken for some
time on machines that don't have a 1:1 mapping of devices (basically
on non-PowerMacs) and have PCI devices above 32 bits.
This attempts to fix it as well as possible.
The rule is supposed to be that pci_resource_to_user() always converts
the resources back into a BAR values since that's what the /proc
interface was supposed to deal with. However, for X to work on
platforms where PCI MMIO is not mapped 1:1, it became a habit of
platforms like powerpc to pass "fixed up" values there since X expects
to be able to use values from /proc/bus/pci/devices as offsets to mmap
of /dev/mem...
So we keep that contraption here, causing also /sys/*/resource to
expose fully absolute MMIO addresses instead of BAR values, which is
ugly, but should still work as long as those are only used to calculate
alignment within a page.
X is still broken when built 32 bits on machines where PCI MMIO can be
above 32-bit space unfortunately.

This adds code to look at the properties firmware puts in the device
tree to determine what compatibility mode the partition is in on
POWER6 machines, and set the ELF aux vector AT_HWCAP and AT_PLATFORM
entries appropriately.
Specifically, we look at the cpu-version property in the cpu node(s).
If that contains a "logical" PVR value (of the form 0x0f00000x), we
call identify_cpu again with this PVR value. A value of 0x0f000001
indicates the partition is in POWER5+ compatibility mode, and a value
of 0x0f000002 indicates "POWER6 architected" mode, with various
extensions disabled. We also look for various other properties:
ibm,dfp, ibm,purr and ibm,spurr.

This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up.
The main issue was that the construct:
.long label (or .llong on 64 bits)
will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will
generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc,
which is not something we can deal with in the vdso.
The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like:
1:
.long label - 1b
That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of
code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry
itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've
modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest
of the kernel as well.
Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel
need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not
support 32 bits code with a statement of the form:
.llong label - 1b (Or even just .llong label)
That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use
to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific
case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are
using a modified macro that generates:
.long 0xffffffff
.llong label - 1b
Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by
the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always
before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the
other way around).

There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the
feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In
addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations
for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and
separately for 32 and 64 bits.
This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are
slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from
assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any
