I noticed /proc/sys/vm/zone_reclaim_mode was 0 on a ppc64 NUMA box. It gets
enabled via this:

        /*
         * If another node is sufficiently far away then it is better
         * to reclaim pages in a zone before going off node.
         */
        if (distance > RECLAIM_DISTANCE)
                zone_reclaim_mode = 1;

Since we use the default value of 20 for REMOTE_DISTANCE and 20 for
RECLAIM_DISTANCE it never kicks in.

The local to remote bandwidth ratios can be quite large on System p
machines so it makes sense for us to reclaim clean pagecache locally before
going off node.

The patch below sets a smaller value for RECLAIM_DISTANCE and thus enables
zone reclaim.

Commit 0119536c, which added the assembly version of strncmp to
powerpc, mentions that it adds two instructions to the version from
boot/string.S to allow it to handle len=0. Unfortunately, it doesn't
always return 0 when that is the case. The length is passed in r5, but
the return value is passed back in r3. In certain cases, this will
happen to work. Otherwise it will pass back the address of the first
string as the return value.

This patch lifts the len <= 0 handling code from memcpy to handle that
case.

Some BIOSes don't configure HPA during boot but do so while resuming.
This causes harddrives to shrink during resume making libata detach
and reattach them.  This can be worked around by unlocking HPA if old
size equals native size.

Add ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA so that HPA unlocking can be controlled
per-device and update ata_dev_revalidate() such that it sets
ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA and fails with -EIO when the above condition is
detected.

This patch fixes the following bug.

Crucial said,

  Thank you for contacting us. We know that with our M225 line of SSDs
  you sometimes need to disable NCQ (native command queuing) to avoid
  just the type of errors you're seeing. Our recommendation for the
  M225 is to add libata.force=noncq to your Linux kernel boot options,
  under the kernel ATA library option.

  I have sent your feedback to the engineers working on the C300, and
  asked them to please pass it on to the firmware team. I have been
  notified that they are in the process of testing and finalizing a
  new firmware version, that you can expect to see released around the
  end of April. We’ll keep you posted as to when it will be available
  for download.

So, turn off NCQ on the drive w/ the current firmware revision.

Module refcounting is implemented with a per-cpu counter for speed.
However there is a race when tallying the counter where a reference may
be taken by one CPU and released by another.  Reference count summation
may then see the decrement without having seen the previous increment,
leading to lower than expected count.  A module which never has its
actual reference drop below 1 may return a reference count of 0 due to
this race.

Module removal generally runs under stop_machine, which prevents this
race causing bugs due to removal of in-use modules.  However there are
other real bugs in module.c code and driver code (module_refcount is
exported) where the callers do not run under stop_machine.

Fix this by maintaining running per-cpu counters for the number of
module refcount increments and the number of refcount decrements.  The
increments are tallied after the decrements, so any decrement seen will
always have its corresponding increment counted.  The final refcount is
the difference of the total increments and decrements, preventing a
low-refcount from being returned.
