Add in the support for Intel Enhanced Speedstep - MSR based transitions.
With this change, the ACPI based support in speedstep-centrino can be
deprecated and duplicate code in that driver can be marked for removal.
Much easier to maintain and support this way. This also reduces the
user misconfigurations and questions on which driver is to be used
under which CPUs to support Enhanced Speedstep.

Some clean up and redsign of the driver. Mainly making it easier to add
support for multiple sub-mechanisms of changing frequency. Currently this
driver supports only ACPI SYSTEM_IO address space. With the changes
below it is easier to add support for other address spaces like Intel
Enhanced Speedstep which uses MSR (ACPI FIXED_FEATURE_HARDWARE) to do the
transitions.

This patchset has refresh/rebase of a bunch of patches/bugfixes related to
acpi-cpufreq that were sent earlier on this list.
patch 1/8
Patch that fixes a bug in swcoordination code in acpi-cpufreq
patch 2/8 through patch 7/8
Grand unification of ACPI based speedstep-centrino and acpi-cpufreq drivers.
ACPI allows P-state transitions in multiple ways. Like using IO ports or using
processor native method (MSR). Without this patch, IO port based P-state
transitions are handled in acpi-cpufreq driver and MSR based transitions on
Intel CPUs are handled in speedstep-centrino driver. Even though most of the
code in these two drivers should be similar, except for final changing/checking
of frequency (one driver does it using IO port and other does it through
MSR), we have duplicated code in these two drivers. There are also issues
around BIOSes supporting both MSR and IO port and which driver should be
loaded first in standard installations.
The patchset combines functionality of these two driver into acpi-cpufreq
driver. ACPI based functionality in speedstep-centrino is marked deprecated
and will be removed in future. speedstep-centrino will continue to work
on systems that depend on older non-ACPI table based P-state chanes.
* 2/8 - Patch that reorganizes the code in acpi-cpufreq, cleaning it up
a little and making it easier to add MSR support later.
* 3/8 - Pull in the MSR based transition support into acpi-cpufreq.
* 4/8 - Mark speedstep-centrino deprecated. Change the order in Makefile to
load acpi-cpufreq first and speedstep-centrino later, in cases where both
are configured in.
* 5/8 - lindent acpi-cpufreq.c
* 6/8 - Minor change to eliminate the check of current frequency on
notifications. We can use last set frequency instead.
* 7/8 - Make cpufreq->get of acpi_cpufreq work correctly again.
There will be a patch in future that removes ACPI based support in
speedstep-centrino in coming months.
patch 8/8
Add support for IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF MSR and get the actual frequency
from these MSRs and use it to determine the next frequency target in ondemand
governor
This patch:
There is a bug in software coordination patch in acpi-cpufreq, due to which
frequency will only be set on first CPU of any coordinated group.
Bug identified by Denis, was not recognised earlier as there are no platforms
yet that use software coordination with acpi-cpufreq driver.

Some buggy BIOSes do a "software any" kind of coordination without telling
about it to OS. So, when OS sets frequency on one CPU on these platforms,
it will also impact all the other logical CPUs that are in the same power
domain. Attached patch is a workaround for those buggy BIOSes.
Patch should be a noop on the normal non-buggy platforms.

Rename option "dont_scale_voltage" to "scale_voltage" because

Use "pos" for calculating voltage. In this way driver don't need
to know mV value or low level value. Simply min U is one pos and
max U is second pos. All pos between these two are used.
Assume that min U is for min f and max U for max f. For frequency
between min and max calculate pos based on difference between
current frequency and min f.

ACPI C3 works for "Powersaver" processors, so use it only for them.
Older CPU will change frequency on "halt" only. But we can protect transition
in two ways:
- by ACPI PM2 register, there is "bus master arbiter disable" bit.
This isn't tested because VIA mainboards don't have PM2 register,
- by PLE133 PCI/AGP arbiter disable register.
There are two bits in this register. First is "PCI arbiter disable",
second "AGP arbiter disable". This is working on VIA Epia 800 mainboards.
Test on bm_control is more proper because this is true
when PM2 register exist.

There is no need to worry about local APIC.
There is need to worry about I/O APIC, because I/O APIC
is replacing good old 8259. According to Nehemiah datasheet VIA is
using 3-wire bus to connect local APIC to I/O APIC.
"[...] When IA32_APIC_BASE[11] is set to 0, processor APICs based on the 3-wire APIC
bus cannot be generally re-enabled until a system hardware reset. The 3-wire bus
looses track of arbitration that would be necessary for complete re-enabling. Certain
(local) APIC functionality can be enabled. [...]"
So we must set disable bit for each interrupt in I/O APIC registers.
Same situation as for PIC - we must poke registers direcly.
How to do this? I don't know. So at the moment it is better to fail.

This patch cleans up some error messages in the
powernow-k8 driver and makes them more understandable.

I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.
In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

Not sure how it slipped by, but here's a trivial typo fix for powernow.

AMD recently discovered that on some hardware, there is a race condition
possible when a C-state change request goes onto the bus at the same
time as a P-state change request.
Both requests happen, but the southbridge hardware only acknowledges the
C-state change. The PowerNow! driver is then stuck in a loop, waiting
for the P-state change acknowledgement. The driver eventually times
out, but can no longer perform P-state changes.
It turns out the solution is to resend the P-state change, which the
southbridge will acknowledge normally.
Thanks to Johannes Winkelmann for reporting this and testing the fix.

Via reading the code, my understanding is that powernow-k8 uses
preempt_disable to ensure that driver->target doesn't migrate across cpus
whilst it's accessing per processor registers, however set_cpus_allowed
will provide this for us. Additionally, remove schedule() calls from
set_cpus_allowed as set_cpus_allowed ensures that you're executing on the
target processor on return.

i386 Inline asm cleanup. Use cr/dr accessor functions.
Also, a potential bugfix. Also, some CR accessors really should be volatile.
Reads from CR0 (numeric state may change in an exception handler), writes to
CR4 (flipping CR4.TSD) and reads from CR2 (page fault) prevent instruction
re-ordering. I did not add memory clobber to CR3 / CR4 / CR0 updates, as it
was not there to begin with, and in no case should kernel memory be clobbered,
except when doing a TLB flush, which already has memory clobber.
I noticed that page invalidation does not have a memory clobber. I can't find
a bug as a result, but there is definitely a potential for a bug here:
#define __flush_tlb_single(addr) \
__asm__ __volatile__("invlpg %0": :"m" (*(char *) addr))

Minor fallout from my upcoming __attribute__((format(printf,x,y)))
patches. The variable 'result' is untouched, so this patch just removes
it.

Ho-hum, did not notice there was more printf fixes for cpufreq (you
should see the amount I have for isdn and reiser ...). Sorry for noise.
