commit f76a1cbed18c86e2d192455f0daebb48458965f3 upstream.

Commit 3e6c6f630a5282df8f3393a59f10eb9c56536d23 ("Delay creation of
khcvd thread") moved the call of hvc_init from being a device_initcall
into hvc_alloc, and used a non-null hvc_driver as indication of whether
hvc_init had already been called.

The problem with this is that hvc_driver is only assigned a value
at the bottom of hvc_init, and so there is a window where multiple
hvc_alloc calls can be in progress at the same time and hence try
and call hvc_init multiple times.  Previously the use of device_init
guaranteed that hvc_init was only called once.

This manifests itself as sporadic instances of two hvc_init calls
racing each other, and with the loser of the race getting -EBUSY
from tty_register_driver() and hence that virtual console fails:

    Couldn't register hvc console driver
    virtio-ports vport0p1: error -16 allocating hvc for port

Here we add an atomic_t to guarantee we'll never run hvc_init twice.

<title>drivers/tty/hvc: don't use module_init in non-modular hyp. console code</title>

<content type='text'>
The HVC_OPAL/RTAS/UDBG/XEN options are all bool, and hence their support
is either present or absent.  It will never be modular, so using
module_init as an alias for __initcall is rather misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall
directly in this change means that the runtime impact is
zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.

Also the __exitcall functions have been outright deleted since
they are only ever of interest to UML, and UML will never be
using any of this code.

<content type='text'>
Add the generic "lnxhvc" terminal ID to automatically assign a HVC terminal when
connecting to the HVC IUCV terminal device driver.  The terminal device driver
tries to find a free (not connected) HVC terminal to satisfy the incoming
connection request.

With this improvement, you do not longer need to guess which HVC terminal is
free, that is, not connected.  Also you can still connect to a particular HVC
terminal by using its associated terminal ID.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include &lt;linux/init.h&gt;.  Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "This has tons of fixes and two major features which are concentrated
  around the Xen SWIOTLB library.

  The short &lt;blurb&gt; is that the tracing facility (just one function) has
  been added to SWIOTLB to make it easier to track I/O progress.
  Additionally under Xen and ARM (32 &amp; 64) the Xen-SWIOTLB driver
  "is used to translate physical to machine and machine to physical
  addresses of foreign[guest] pages for DMA operations" (Stefano) when
  booting under hardware without proper IOMMU.

  There are also bug-fixes, cleanups, compile warning fixes, etc.

  The commit times for some of the commits is a bit fresh - that is b/c
  we wanted to make sure we have the Ack's from the ARM folks - which
  with the string of back-to-back conferences took a bit of time.  Rest
  assured - the code has been stewing in #linux-next for some time.

  Features:
   - SWIOTLB has tracing added when doing bounce buffer.
   - Xen ARM/ARM64 can use Xen-SWIOTLB.  This work allows Linux to
     safely program real devices for DMA operations when running as a
     guest on Xen on ARM, without IOMMU support. [*1]
   - xen_raw_printk works with PVHVM guests if needed.

  Bug-fixes:
   - Make memory ballooning work under HVM with large MMIO region.
   - Inform hypervisor of MCFG regions found in ACPI DSDT.
   - Remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED.
   - Remove deprecated __cpuinit.

  [*1]:
  "On arm and arm64 all Xen guests, including dom0, run with second
   stage translation enabled.  As a consequence when dom0 programs a
   device for a DMA operation is going to use (pseudo) physical
   addresses instead machine addresses.  This work introduces two trees
   to track physical to machine and machine to physical mappings of
   foreign pages.  Local pages are assumed mapped 1:1 (physical address
   == machine address).  It enables the SWIOTLB-Xen driver on ARM and
   ARM64, so that Linux can translate physical addresses to machine
   addresses for dma operations when necessary.  " (Stefano)"

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "The bulk of this is LE updates.  One should now be able to build an LE
  kernel and even run some things in it.

  I'm still sitting on a handful of patches to enable the new ABI that I
  *might* still send this merge window around, but due to the
  incertainty (they are pretty fresh) I want to keep them separate.

  Other notable changes are some infrastructure bits to better handle
  PCI pass-through under KVM, some bits and pieces added to the new
  PowerNV platform support such as access to the CPU SCOM bus via sysfs,
  and support for EEH error handling on PHB3 (Power8 PCIe).

  We also grew arch_get_random_long() for both pseries and powernv when
  running on P7+ and P8, exploiting the HW rng.

  And finally various embedded updates from freescale"

* 'next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: (154 commits)
  powerpc: Fix fatal SLB miss when restoring PPR
  powerpc/powernv: Reserve the correct PE number
  powerpc/powernv: Add PE to its own PELTV
  powerpc/powernv: Add support for indirect XSCOM via debugfs
  powerpc/scom: Improve debugfs interface
  powerpc/scom: Enable 64-bit addresses
  powerpc/boot: Properly handle the base "of" boot wrapper
  powerpc/bpf: Support MOD operation
  powerpc/bpf: Fix DIVWU instruction opcode
  of: Move definition of of_find_next_cache_node into common code.
  powerpc: Remove big endianness assumption in of_find_next_cache_node
  powerpc/tm: Remove interrupt disable in __switch_to()
  powerpc: word-at-a-time optimization for 64-bit Little Endian
  powerpc/bpf: BPF JIT compiler for 64-bit Little Endian
  powerpc: Only save/restore SDR1 if in hypervisor mode
  powerpc/pmu: Fix ADB_PMU_LED_IDE dependencies
  powerpc/nvram: Fix endian issue when using the partition length
  powerpc/nvram: Fix endian issue when reading the NVRAM size
  powerpc/nvram: Scan partitions only once
  powerpc/mpc512x: remove unnecessary #if
