This removes the 'write' and 'force' from get_user_pages() and replaces
them with 'gup_flags' to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit in callers
as use of this flag can result in surprising behaviour (and hence bugs)
within the mm subsystem.

<title>mm/gup: Switch all callers of get_user_pages() to not pass tsk/mm</title>

<id>d4edcf0d56958db0aca0196314ca38a5e730ea92</id>
<content type='text'>
We will soon modify the vanilla get_user_pages() so it can no
longer be used on mm/tasks other than 'current/current-&gt;mm',
which is by far the most common way it is called.  For now,
we allow the old-style calls, but warn when they are used.
(implemented in previous patch)

This patch switches all callers of:

	get_user_pages()
	get_user_pages_unlocked()
	get_user_pages_locked()

to stop passing tsk/mm so they will no longer see the warnings.

Powerpc is a mess of implicit includes by prom.h. Add the necessary
explicit includes to drivers in preparation of prom.h cleanup.

<title>drivers/virt: the Freescale hypervisor driver doesn't need to check MSR[GS]</title>

<id>9655aa6b8034ebb69724dc4b54ad4f64a53096d1</id>
<content type='text'>
The MSR[GS] bit indicates whether the kernel is running in processor guest
state mode, but such a check is unnecessary.  The driver already checks
for the /hypervisor node and the fsl,hv-version property, so it already
knows that it's running under the Freescale hypervisor.

There is nothing in the driver that inherently requires guest state,
anyway.

This fixes a break that can occur in some randconfig builds.

fsl_hypervisor.c calls request_irq() but does not include linux/interrupt.h.
Normally, the driver will compile without error, but it can fail on some
configurations.

Add the drivers/virt directory, which houses drivers that support
virtualization environments, and add the Freescale hypervisor management
driver.

The Freescale hypervisor management driver provides several services to
drivers and applications related to the Freescale hypervisor:

1. An ioctl interface for querying and managing partitions

2. A file interface to reading incoming doorbells

3. An interrupt handler for shutting down the partition upon receiving the
   shutdown doorbell from a manager partition

4. A kernel interface for receiving callbacks when a managed partition
   shuts down.
