commit 7f8998c7aef3ac9c5f3f2943e083dfa6302e90d0 upstream.

The different architectures used their own (and different) declarations:

    extern __visible const void __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;
    extern const void __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;
    extern long __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;

Consolidate them using the first variant in &lt;asm/sections.h&gt;.

<title>powerpc: Fix missing L2 cache size in /sys/devices/system/cpu</title>

commit f7e9e358362557c3aa2c1ec47490f29fe880a09e upstream.

This problem appears to have been introduced in 2.6.29 by commit
93197a36a9c1 "Rewrite sysfs processor cache info code".

This caused lscpu to error out on at least e500v2 devices, eg:

  error: cannot open /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cache/index2/size: No such file or directory

Some embedded powerpc systems use cache-size in DTS for the unified L2
cache size, not d-cache-size, so we need to allow for both DTS names.
Added a new CACHE_TYPE_UNIFIED_D cache_type_info structure to handle
this.

commit 44d5f6f5901e996744858c175baee320ccf1eda3 upstream.

commit id 2ba9f0d has changed CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV to tristate to allow
HV/PR bits to be built as modules. But the MCE code still depends on
CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV which is wrong. When user selects
CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HV=m to build HV/PR bits as a separate module the
relevant MCE code gets excluded.

This patch fixes the MCE code to use CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_HANDLER. This
makes sure that the relevant MCE code is included when HV/PR bits
are built as a separate modules.

commit 682e77c861c4c60f79ffbeae5e1938ffed24a575 upstream.

The existing MCE code calls flush_tlb hook with IS=0 (single page) resulting
in partial invalidation of TLBs which is not right. This patch fixes
that by passing IS=0xc00 to invalidate whole TLB for successful recovery
from TLB and ERAT errors.

commit cd32e2dcc9de6c27ecbbfc0e2079fb64b42bad5f upstream.

We have some code in udbg_uart_getc_poll() that tries to protect
against a NULL udbg_uart_in, but gets it all wrong.

Found with the LLVM static analyzer (scan-build).

Commit 59a53afe70fd530040bdc69581f03d880157f15a "powerpc: Don't setup
CPUs with bad status" broke ePAPR SMP booting.  ePAPR says that CPUs
that aren't presently running shall have status of disabled, with
enable-method being used to determine whether the CPU can be enabled.

Fix by checking for spin-table, which is currently the only supported
enable-method.

commit 59a53afe70fd530040bdc69581f03d880157f15a upstream.

OPAL will mark a CPU that is guarded as "bad" in the status property of the CPU
node.

Unfortunatley Linux doesn't check this property and will put the bad CPU in the
present map.  This has caused hangs on booting when we try to unsplit the core.

This patch checks the CPU is avaliable via this status property before putting
it in the present map.
