For removing memory, we need to remove page tables. But it depends on
architecture. So the patch introduce arch_remove_memory() for removing
page table. Now it only calls __remove_pages().
Note: __remove_pages() for some archtecuture is not implemented
(I don't know how to implement it for s390).

Pull x86 microcode loading update from Peter Anvin:
"This patchset lets us update the CPU microcode very, very early in
initialization if the BIOS fails to do so (never happens, right?)
This is handy for dealing with things like the Atom erratum where we
have to run without PSE because microcode loading happens too late.
As I mentioned in the x86/mm push request it depends on that
infrastructure but it is otherwise a standalone feature."

With commit 8170e6bed465 ("x86, 64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize
early mappings on demand") we started hitting an early bootup crash
where the Xen hypervisor would inform us that:
(XEN) d7:v0: unhandled page fault (ec=0000)
(XEN) Pagetable walk from ffffea000005b2d0:
(XEN) L4[0x1d4] = 0000000000000000 ffffffffffffffff
(XEN) domain_crash_sync called from entry.S
(XEN) Domain 7 (vcpu#0) crashed on cpu#3:
(XEN) ----[ Xen-4.2.0 x86_64 debug=n Not tainted ]----
.. that Xen was unable to context switch back to dom0.
Looking at the calling stack we find:
[<ffffffff8103feba>] xen_get_user_pgd+0x5a <--
[<ffffffff8103feba>] xen_get_user_pgd+0x5a
[<ffffffff81042d27>] xen_write_cr3+0x77
[<ffffffff81ad2d21>] init_mem_mapping+0x1f9
[<ffffffff81ac293f>] setup_arch+0x742
[<ffffffff81666d71>] printk+0x48
We are trying to figure out whether we need to up-date the user PGD as
well. Please keep in mind that under 64-bit PV guests we have a limited
amount of rings: 0 for the Hypervisor, and 1 for both the Linux kernel
and user-space. As such the Linux pvops'fied version of write_cr3
checks if it has to update the user-space cr3 as well.
That clearly is not needed during early bootup. The recent changes (see
above git commit) streamline the x86 page table allocation to be much
simpler (And also incidentally the #PF handler ends up in spirit being
similar to how the Xen toolstack sets up the initial page-tables).
The fix is to have an early-bootup version of cr3 that just loads the
kernel %cr3. The later version - which also handles user-page
modifications will be used after the initial page tables have been
setup.
[ hpa: removed a redundant #ifdef and made the new function __init.
Also note that x86-32 already has such an early xen_write_cr3. ]

The code requires the use of the proper per-exception-vector stub
functions (set up as the early_idt_handlers[] array - note the 's') that
make sure to set up the error vector number. This is true regardless of
whether CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK is set or not.
Why? The stack offset for the comparison of __KERNEL_CS won't be right
otherwise, nor will the new check (from commit 8170e6bed465: "x86,
64bit: Use a #PF handler to materialize early mappings on demand") for
the page fault exception vector.

Pull x86 mm changes from Peter Anvin:
"This is a huge set of several partly interrelated (and concurrently
developed) changes, which is why the branch history is messier than
one would like.
The *really* big items are two humonguous patchsets mostly developed
by Yinghai Lu at my request, which completely revamps the way we
create initial page tables. In particular, rather than estimating how
much memory we will need for page tables and then build them into that
memory -- a calculation that has shown to be incredibly fragile -- we
now build them (on 64 bits) with the aid of a "pseudo-linear mode" --
a #PF handler which creates temporary page tables on demand.
This has several advantages:
1. It makes it much easier to support things that need access to data
very early (a followon patchset uses this to load microcode way
early in the kernel startup).
2. It allows the kernel and all the kernel data objects to be invoked
from above the 4 GB limit. This allows kdump to work on very large
systems.
3. It greatly reduces the difference between Xen and native (Xen's
equivalent of the #PF handler are the temporary page tables created
by the domain builder), eliminating a bunch of fragile hooks.
The patch series also gets us a bit closer to W^X.
Additional work in this pull is the 64-bit get_user() work which you
were also involved with, and a bunch of cleanups/speedups to
__phys_addr()/__pa()."

commit 1de63d60cd5b ("efi: Clear EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES rather than
EFI_BOOT by "noefi" boot parameter") attempted to make "noefi" true to
its documentation and disable EFI runtime services to prevent the
bricking bug described in commit e0094244e41c ("samsung-laptop:
Disable on EFI hardware"). However, it's not possible to clear
EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES from an early param function because
EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES is set in efi_init() *after* parse_early_param().
This resulted in "noefi" effectively becoming a no-op and no longer
providing users with a way to disable EFI, which is bad for those
users that have buggy machines.

- Improved NUMA support on AMD systems:
Add support for federated systems where multiple memory controllers
can exist and see each other over multiple PCI domains. This
basically means that AMD node ids can be more than 8 now and the code
handling this is taught to incorporate PCI domain into those IDs.

There is a loophole between Xen's current implementation of
pv-spinlocks and the scheduler. This was triggerable through
a testcase until v3.6 changed the TLB flushing code. The
problem potentially is still there just not observable in the
same way.
What could happen was (is):
1. CPU n tries to schedule task x away and goes into a slow
wait for the runq lock of CPU n-# (must be one with a lower
number).
2. CPU n-#, while processing softirqs, tries to balance domains
and goes into a slow wait for its own runq lock (for updating
some records). Since this is a spin_lock_irqsave in softirq
context, interrupts will be re-enabled for the duration of
the poll_irq hypercall used by Xen.
3. Before the runq lock of CPU n-# is unlocked, CPU n-1 receives
an interrupt (e.g. endio) and when processing the interrupt,
tries to wake up task x. But that is in schedule and still
on_cpu, so try_to_wake_up goes into a tight loop.
4. The runq lock of CPU n-# gets unlocked, but the message only
gets sent to the first waiter, which is CPU n-# and that is
busily stuck.
5. CPU n-# never returns from the nested interruption to take and
release the lock because the scheduler uses a busy wait.
And CPU n never finishes the task migration because the unlock
notification only went to CPU n-#.
To avoid this and since the unlocking code has no real sense of
which waiter is best suited to grab the lock, just send the IPI
to all of them. This causes the waiters to return from the hyper-
call (those not interrupted at least) and do active spinlocking.

Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar:
"There are lots of improvements, the biggest changes are:
Main kernel side changes:
- Improve uprobes performance by adding 'pre-filtering' support, by
Oleg Nesterov.
- Make some POWER7 events available in sysfs, equivalent to what was
done on x86, from Sukadev Bhattiprolu.
- tracing updates by Steve Rostedt - mostly misc fixes and smaller
improvements.
- Use perf/event tracing to report PCI Express advanced errors, by
Tony Luck.
- Enable northbridge performance counters on AMD family 15h, by Jacob
Shin.
- This tracing commit:
tracing: Remove the extra 4 bytes of padding in events
changes the ABI. All involved parties (PowerTop in particular)
seem to agree that it's safe to do now with the introduction of
libtraceevent, but the devil is in the details ...
Main tooling side changes:
- Add 'event group view', from Namyung Kim:
To use it, 'perf record' should group events when recording. And
then perf report parses the saved group relation from file header
and prints them together if --group option is provided. You can
use the 'perf evlist' command to see event group information:
$ perf record -e '{ref-cycles,cycles}' noploop 1
[ perf record: Woken up 2 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.385 MB perf.data (~16807 samples) ]
$ perf evlist --group
{ref-cycles,cycles}
With this example, default perf report will show you each event
separately.
You can use --group option to enable event group view:
$ perf report --group
...
# group: {ref-cycles,cycles}
# ========
# Samples: 7K of event 'anon group { ref-cycles, cycles }'
# Event count (approx.): 6876107743
#
# Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol
# ................ ....... ................. ..........................
99.84% 99.76% noploop noploop [.] main
0.07% 0.00% noploop ld-2.15.so [.] strcmp
0.03% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] timerqueue_del
0.03% 0.03% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sched_clock_cpu
0.02% 0.00% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] account_user_time

0.00% 0.02% noploop [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __current_kernel_time
As you can see the Overhead column now contains both of ref-cycles
and cycles and header line shows group information also - 'anon
group { ref-cycles, cycles }'. The output is sorted by period of
group leader first.
- Initial GTK+ annotate browser, from Namhyung Kim.
- Add option for runtime switching perf data file in perf report,
just press 's' and a menu with the valid files found in the current
directory will be presented, from Feng Tang.
- Add support to display whole group data for raw columns, from Jiri
Olsa.
- Add per processor socket count aggregation in perf stat, from
Stephane Eranian.
- Add interval printing in 'perf stat', from Stephane Eranian.
- 'perf test' improvements
- Add support for wildcards in tracepoint system name, from Jiri
Olsa.
- Add anonymous huge page recognition, from Joshua Zhu.
- perf build-id cache now can show DSOs present in a perf.data file
that are not in the cache, to integrate with build-id servers being
put in place by organizations such as Fedora.
- perf top now shares more of the evsel config/creation routines with
'record', paving the way for further integration like 'top'
snapshots, etc.
- perf top now supports DWARF callchains.
- Fix mmap limitations on 32-bit, fix from David Miller.

- ... and lots of fixes, performance improvements, cleanups and other

The "x86, AMD: Enable WC+ memory type on family 10 processors" patch
currently in -tip added a workaround for AMD F10h CPUs which #GPs my
guest when booted in kvm. This is because it accesses MSR_AMD64_BU_CFG2
which is not currently ignored by kvm. Do that because this MSR is only
baremetal-relevant anyway. While at it, move the ignored MSRs at the
beginning of kvm_set_msr_common so that we exit then and there.

counters (in addition to 6 core performance counters) that can
be used for counting northbridge events (i.e. DRAM accesses).
Their bit fields are almost identical to the core performance
counters. However, unlike the core performance counters, these
MSRs are shared between multiple cores (that share the same
northbridge).
We will reuse the same code path as existing family 10h
northbridge event constraints handler logic to enforce
this sharing.

Pull xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Two fixes:
- A simple bug-fix for redundant NULL check.
- CVE-2013-0228/XSA-42: x86/xen: don't assume %ds is usable in
xen_iret for 32-bit PVOPS
and two reverts:
- Revert the PVonHVM kexec. The patch introduces a regression with
older hypervisor stacks, such as Xen 4.1."
* tag 'stable/for-linus-3.8-rc7-tag-two' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen:
Revert "xen PVonHVM: use E820_Reserved area for shared_info"
Revert "xen/PVonHVM: fix compile warning in init_hvm_pv_info"
xen: remove redundant NULL check before unregister_and_remove_pcpu().
x86/xen: don't assume %ds is usable in xen_iret for 32-bit PVOPS.

x86/mm2 is testing out fine, but has developed conflicts with x86/mm
due to patches in adjacent code. Merge them so we can drop x86/mm2
and have a unified branch.
