[ Upstream commit a03ffcf873fe0f2565386ca8ef832144c42e67fa ]

x86 jump instruction size is 2 or 5 bytes (near/long jump), not 2 or 6
bytes.

In case a conditional jump is followed by a long jump, conditional jump
target is one byte past the start of target instruction.

[ A combination of upstream commits 1d299bc7732c34d85bd43ac1a8745f5a2fed2078 and
  e88d2468718b0789b4c33da2f7e1cef2a1eee279 ]

Although we provide a proper way for a debugger to control whether
syscall restart occurs, we run into problems because orig_i0 is not
saved and restored properly.

Luckily we can solve this problem without having to make debuggers
aware of the issue.  Across system calls, several registers are
considered volatile and can be safely clobbered.

Therefore we use the pt_regs save area of one of those registers, %g6,
as a place to save and restore orig_i0.

Debuggers transparently will do the right thing because they save and
restore this register already.

Therefore we have to patch them up during module load.

[ Upstream commit 7cc8583372a21d98a23b703ad96cab03180b5030 ]

This silently was working for many years and stopped working on
Niagara-T3 machines.

We need to set the MSIQ to VALID before we can set it's state to IDLE.

On Niagara-T3, setting the state to IDLE first was causing HV_EINVAL
errors.  The hypervisor documentation says, rather ambiguously, that
the MSIQ must be "initialized" before one can set the state.

I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf()
operation has been performed on the MSIQ, which we have done at this
point.  But it seems to also mean that it has been set VALID too.
