Commit 721fdf3416 introduced a subtle bug
by accidently removing the "static" from iodc_dbuf. This resulted in, what
appeared to be, a trap without *current set to a task. Probably the result of
a trap in real mode while calling firmware.
Also do other misc clean ups. Since the only input from firmware is non
blocking, share iodc_dbuf between input and output, and spinlock the
only callers.

This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.
The idea is:
- all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
- when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
- when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
task's namespace the global one is to be used;
- when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out. This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.
One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.
This patch:
Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the
trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating
buffer. This is nonsense and error-prone. Moreover, when the caller
forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack
because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero.
This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly.
* off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro
is fixed.
* Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together,
MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the
trailing '\0'. Fix it.

[ Added parisc patch from Matthew Wilson -Linus ]
Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
The current generic bug implementation has a call to dump_stack() in case a
WARN_ON(whatever) gets hit. Since report_bug(), which calls dump_stack(),
gets called from an exception handler we can do better: just pass the
pt_regs structure to report_bug() and pass it to show_regs() in case of a
warning. This will give more debug informations like register contents,
etc... In addition this avoids some pointless lines that dump_stack()
emits, since it includes a stack backtrace of the exception handler which
is of no interest in case of a warning. E.g. on s390 the following lines
are currently always present in a stack backtrace if dump_stack() gets
called from report_bug():
[<000000000001517a>] show_trace+0x92/0xe8)

Kudos to Thibaut Varene for spotting the (mis)use of appropriately named
global_ack_eiem. This took a long time to figure out and both insight
from myself, Kyle McMartin, and James Bottomley were required to narrow
down which bit of code could have this race condition.
The symptom was interrupts stopped getting delivered while some workload
was generating IO interrupts on two different CPUs. One of the interrupt
sources would get masked off and stay unmasked. Problem was global_ack_eiem
was accessed with read/modified/write sequence and not protected by
a spinlock.
PA-RISC doesn't need a global ack flag though. External Interrupts
are _always_ delivered to a single CPU (except for "global broadcast
interrupt" which AFAIK currently is not used.) So we don't have to worry
about any given IRQ vector getting delivered to more than one CPU.
Tested on a500 and rp34xx boxen. rsync to/from gsyprf11 (a500)
would lock up the box since NIC (tg3) interrupt and SCSI (sym2)
were on "opposite" CPUs (2 CPU system). Put them on the same CPU
or apply this patch and 10GB of data would rsync completely.
Please apply the following critical patch.

The bug was that we were comparing __NR_syscalls to be greater or equal
to the syscall number stored in %r20. __NR_syscalls is one greater than
the last syscall though, so we're loading one entry beyond the end of the

have compared to (__NR_Linux_syscalls - 1)
