Avoid 64-bit "switch()" statements on 32-bit architectures
Commit
ee6f779b9e0851e2f7da292a9f58e0095edf615a ("filp->f_pos not
correctly updated in proc_task_readdir") changed the proc code to use
filp->f_pos directly, rather than through a temporary variable. In the
process, that caused the operations to be done on the full 64 bits, even
though the offset is never that big.
That's all fine and dandy per se, but for some unfathomable reason gcc
generates absolutely horrid code when using 64-bit values in switch()
statements. To the point of actually calling out to gcc helper
functions like __cmpdi2 rather than just doing the trivial comparisons
directly the way gcc does for normal compares. At which point we get
link failures, because we really don't want to support that kind of
crazy code.
Fix this by just casting the f_pos value to "unsigned long", which
is plenty big enough for /proc, and avoids the gcc code generation issue.

Fast TSC calibration: calculate proper frequency error bounds
In order for ntpd to correctly synchronize the clocks, the frequency of
the system clock must not be off by more than 500 ppm (or, put another
way, 1:2000), or ntpd will end up giving up on trying to synchronize
properly, and ends up reseting the clock in jumps instead.
The fast TSC PIT calibration sometimes failed this test - it was
assuming that the PIT reads always took about one microsecond each (2us
for the two reads to get a 16-bit timer), and that calibrating TSC to
the PIT over 15ms should thus be sufficient to get much closer than
500ppm (max 2us error on both sides giving 4us over 15ms: a 270 ppm
error value).
However, that assumption does not always hold: apparently some hardware
is either very much slower at reading the PIT registers, or there was
other noise causing at least one machine to get 700+ ppm errors.
So instead of using a fixed 15ms timing loop, this changes the fast PIT
calibration to read the TSC delta over the individual PIT timer reads,
and use the result to calculate the error bars on the PIT read timing
properly. We then successfully calibrate the TSC only if the maximum
error bars fall below 500ppm.
In the process, we also relax the timing to allow up to 25ms for the
calibration, although it can happen much faster depending on hardware.

Fix potential fast PIT TSC calibration startup glitch
During bootup, when we reprogram the PIT (programmable interval timer)
to start counting down from 0xffff in order to use it for the fast TSC
calibration, we should also make sure to delay a bit afterwards to allow
the PIT hardware to actually start counting with the new value.
That will happens at the next CLK pulse (1.193182 MHz), so the easiest
way to do that is to just wait at least one microsecond after
programming the new PIT counter value. We do that by just reading the
counter value back once - which will take about 2us on PC hardware.

Syscall tracing must select kallsysms.
The arch code builds a table to find the syscall metadata by syscall
number. It needs the syscalls names resolution from the symbol table
to know which name found on the syscalls metadatas match a function
pointer from the arch sys_call_table.

tracing/syscalls: protect thread flag toggling from races
Impact: fix syscall tracer enable/disable race
The current thread flag toggling is racy as shown in the following
scenario:
- task A is the last user of syscall tracing, it releases the
TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE on each tasks
- at the same time task B start syscall tracing. refcount == 0 so
it sets up TIF_SYSCALL_FTRACE on each tasks.
The effect of the mixup is unpredictable.
So this fix adds a mutex on {start,stop}_syscall_tracing().

tracing/syscalls: fix missing release of tracing
Impact: fix 'stuck' syscall tracer
The syscall tracer uses a refcounter to enable several users
simultaneously.
But the refcounter did not behave correctly and always restored
its value to 0 after calling start_syscall_tracing(). Therefore,
stop_syscall_tracing() couldn't release correctly the tasks from
tracing.
Also the tracer forgot to reset the buffer when it is released.
Drop the pointless refcount decrement on start_syscall_tracing()
and reset the buffer when we release the tracer.
This fixes two reported issue:
- when we switch from syscall tracer to another tracer, syscall
tracing continued.
- incorrect use of the refcount.

FNEK. This is a problem if a user wants to use a different FNEK than
their FEKEK, as their file contents will still be accessible with the
FNEK.
This is a minimalistic patch which prevents the FNEKs signatures from
being copied to the inode signatures list. Ultimately, it keeps the FEK
from being encrypted with a FNEK.

nommu: ramfs: don't leak pages when adding to page cache fails
When a ramfs nommu mapping is expanded, contiguous pages are allocated
and added to the pagecache. The caller's reference is then passed on
by moving whole pagevecs to the file lru list.
If the page cache adding fails, make sure that the error path also
moves the pagevec contents which might still contain up to PAGEVEC_SIZE
successfully added pages, of which we would leak references otherwise.

nommu: ramfs: pages allocated to an inode's pagecache may get wrongly discarded
The pages attached to a ramfs inode's pagecache by truncation from nothing
- as done by SYSV SHM for example - may get discarded under memory
pressure.
The problem is that the pages are not marked dirty. Anything that creates
data in an MMU-based ramfs will cause the pages holding that data will
cause the set_page_dirty() aop to be called.
For the NOMMU-based mmap, set_page_dirty() may be called by write(), but
it won't be called by page-writing faults on writable mmaps, and it isn't
called by ramfs_nommu_expand_for_mapping() when a file is being truncated
from nothing to allocate a contiguous run.
The solution is to mark the pages dirty at the point of allocation by the
truncation code.

kallsyms, tracing: output more proper symbol name
Impact: bugfix, output more reliable symbol lookup result
Debug tools(dump_stack(), ftrace...) are like to print out symbols.
But it is always print out the first aliased symbol.(Aliased symbols
are symbols with the same address), and the first aliased symbol is
sometime not proper.
# echo function_graph > current_tracer
# cat trace

1) | tick_check_idle() {
1) 0.000 us | tick_check_oneshot_broadcast();
1) | tick_nohz_stop_idle() {

It's very embarrassing, it ouputs "__irqentry_text_start()",
actually, it should output "smp_apic_timer_interrupt()".
(these two symbol are the same address, but "__irqentry_text_start"
is deemed to the first aliased symbol by scripts/kallsyms)
This patch puts symbols like "__irqentry_text_start" to the second
aliased symbols. And a more proper symbol name becomes the first.
Aliased symbols mostly come from linker script. The solution is
guessing "is this symbol defined in linker script", the symbols
defined in linker script will not become the first aliased symbol.
And if symbols are found to be equal in this "linker script provided"
criteria, symbols are sorted by the number of prefix underscores.

Samsung DB-P70 somehow botched the first ICH9 SATA port. The board

while failing SRST protocol leading to repeated probe failures and
thus long boot delay.
Because the BIOS doesn't carry any identifying DMI information, the
port can't be blacklisted safely. Fortunately, the controller does
have subsystem vendor and ID set. It's unclear whether the subsystem
IDs are used only for the board but it can be safely worked around by
disabling SIDPR access and just using SRST works around the problem.

This adds the generic support for syscalls tracing. This is
currently exploited through a devoted tracer but other tracing
engines can use it. (They just have to play with
{start,stop}_ftrace_syscalls() and use the display callbacks
unless they want to override them.)
The syscalls prototypes definitions are abused here to steal
some metadata informations:
- syscall name, param types, param names, number of params
The syscall addr is not directly saved during this definition
because we don't know if its prototype is available in the
namespace. But we don't really need it. The arch has just to
build a function able to resolve the syscall number to its
metadata struct.
The current tracer prints the syscall names, parameters names
and values (and their types optionally). Currently the value is
a raw hex but higher level values diplaying is on my TODO list.
