<title>mm/memblock: add memblock memory allocation apis</title>

<id>26f09e9b3a0696f6fe20b021901300fba26fb579</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce memblock memory allocation APIs which allow to support PAE or
LPAE extension on 32 bits archs where the physical memory start address
can be beyond 4GB.  In such cases, existing bootmem APIs which operate
on 32 bit addresses won't work and needs memblock layer which operates
on 64 bit addresses.

So we add equivalent APIs so that we can replace usage of bootmem with
memblock interfaces.  Architectures already converted to NO_BOOTMEM use
these new memblock interfaces.  The architectures which are still not
converted to NO_BOOTMEM continue to function as is because we still
maintain the fal lback option of bootmem back-end supporting these new
interfaces.  So no functional change as such.

In long run, once all the architectures moves to NO_BOOTMEM, we can get
rid of bootmem layer completely.  This is one step to remove the core
code dependency with bootmem and also gives path for architectures to
move away from bootmem.

The proposed interface will became active if both CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK
and CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM are specified by arch.  In case
!CONFIG_NO_BOOTMEM, the memblock() wrappers will fallback to the
existing bootmem apis so that arch's not converted to NO_BOOTMEM
continue to work as is.

The meaning of MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ACCESSIBLE and MEMBLOCK_ALLOC_ANYWHERE
is kept same.

<title>ARM: disable virt_to_bus/virt_to_bus almost everywhere</title>

We are getting a number of warnings about the use of the deprecated
bus_to_virt function in drivers using the ARM ISA DMA API:

drivers/parport/parport_pc.c: In function 'parport_pc_fifo_write_block_dma':
drivers/parport/parport_pc.c:622:3: warning: 'bus_to_virt' is deprecated
(declared at arch/arm/include/asm/memory.h:253) [-Wdeprecated-declarations]

This is only because that function gets used by the inline
set_dma_addr() helper. We know that any driver for the ISA DMA API
is correctly using the DMA addresses, so we can change this
to use the __bus_to_virt() function instead, which does not warn.

After this, there are no remaining drivers that are used on
any defconfigs on ARM using virt_to_bus or bus_to_virt, with
the exception of the OSS sound driver. That driver is only used
on RiscPC, NetWinder and Shark, so we can set ARCH_NO_VIRT_TO_BUS
on all other platforms and hide the deprecated functions, which
is far more effective than marking them as deprecated, in order
to avoid any new users of that code.

Annotate the low level hardware locks which must not be preempted.

In mainline this change documents the low level nature of
the lock - otherwise there's no functional difference. Lockdep
and Sparse checking will work as usual.

Having this value defined at compile time prevents multiple machines with
conflicting definitions to coexist.  Move it to a variable in preparation
for having a per machine value selected at run time.  This is relevant
only when CONFIG_ZONE_DMA is selected.

The values of ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD and MAX_DMA_ADDRESS are related; one is
the physical/bus address, the other is the virtual address.  Both need
to be kept in step, so rather than having platforms define both, allow
them to define a single macro which sets both of these macros
appropraitely.

A lot of ARM-defconfigs (those without CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API set) fail to
build [1][2][3] due to the changes of the patch
    [PATCH] PCI: Clean up build for CONFIG_PCI_QUIRKS unset
    by Rafael J. Wysocki (Sat, 2 Jan 2010 22:57:24 +0100) [4]
as the referenced variable 'isa_dma_bridge_buggy' in asm/dma.h is
enclosed by the CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API conditional all configs without this
setting fail to build.

I'm not sure wether moving the condition is the right way to solve the
issue, but atleast it fixes the issue :)
