    mm/built-in.o(.toc1+0xae0): undefined reference to `HPAGE_SHIFT'

We seem to need to define HPAGE_SHIFT to something when HUGETLB_PAGE isn't
defined.  This patch defines it to PAGE_SHIFT when we have no support.

[PATCH] md: fix is_mddev_idle calculation now that disk/sector accounting happens when request completes

md needs to monitor the rate of requests to its devices when doing
resync/recovery so that it can back-off when there is non-resync IO.  It
does this by comparing resync IO, which it counts, with total IO which is
taken from disk_stats.

disk_stats were recently changed to account sectors when a request
completes instead of when it is queued.  This upsets md's calculations.

We could do the sync_io accounting at the end of requests too, but that has
problems.  If an underlying device is an md array, the accounting will
still be done when the request is submitted.  This could be changed for
some raid levels, but it cannot be changed for raid0 or linear without
substantial code changes.

So instead, we increase the error that is_mddev_idle allows, up to the
maximum amount of resync IO that can be in flight at any time.  The
calculation is current fragile as each personality as different limits for
in-flight resync.  This should be fixed up.

For now, this simple patch fixes the problem.

Increasing the error margin decreases the sensitivity to non-resync IO.  To
partially compensate for this, the time to wait when non-resync IO is
detected is increased so that less steady IO is required to keep the resync
at bay.

One issue with the RCU torture test is that the current error flagging can
be lost in dmesg.  This patch adds a "SUCCESS"/"FAILURE" string to the line
that flags the end of the test, where it can easily be seen with "dmesg |
tail" at the end of the test.  Also adds tests of architecture-specific
memory barriers -- or, more likely, of the RCU torture test itself.

This makes 32-bit CHRP systems use the RTAS time-of-day routines if
available.  It fixes a bug in the RTAS time-of-day routines where they
were storing a 64-bit timebase value in an unsigned long by making
those variables u64.  Also, the direct-access time-of-day routines
had the wrong convention for the month and year in the struct rtc_time.

This also deletes the now-unused Makefiles under arch/ppc64.

Both of the files moved over could use some merging, but for now I
have moved them as-is and arranged for them to be used only in 64-bit
kernels.  For 32-bit kernels we still use arch/ppc/kernel/idle.c and
drivers/char/generic_nvram.c as before.

though. Kumar, since you played with that in the past, I suppose you
have some test cases for verifying that it works properly before I dig
out the 601 machine ? :)

My earlier merge of delay.h introduced a timebase-based udelay for
32-bit machines but also broke the 601, which doesn't have the
timebase register.  This fixes it by using the 601's RTC register on
the 601, and also moves __delay() and udelay() to be out-of-line in
arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c.  These functions aren't really performance
critical, after all.
