Remove PageReserved() calls from core code by tightening VM_RESERVED
handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality.
PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page.
All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged
in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount
based freeing of Reserved pages.
MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being
deprecated. We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be
reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept).
Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all
arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can
be trivially removed.
Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to
determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not. This still
needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work).
A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and
thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss). These writes to the struct
page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems. There are a
number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

We want ->tf_read() to get a complete snapshot of all taskfile
registers, without requiring the callers to manually call
ata_chk_status() and ata_chk_err() themselves.
This also fixes a minor bug in sata_vsc where the lower bits of the
feature register were incorrectly placed in the HOB (high order bits)
portion of struct ata_taskfile.

IPR scsi adapter have an exposure today in that they issue BIST to the adapter
to reset the card. If, during the time it takes to complete BIST, userspace
attempts to access PCI config space, the host bus bridge will master abort the
access since the ipr adapter does not respond on the PCI bus for a brief
period of time when running BIST. On PPC64 hardware, this master abort
results in the host PCI bridge isolating that PCI device from the rest of the
system, making the device unusable until Linux is rebooted. This patch makes
use of some newly added PCI layer APIs that allow for protection from
userspace accessing config space of a device in scenarios such as this.

If qla2x00_probe_one()'s call to qla2x00_iospace_config() fails, we call
qla2x00_free_device() to clean up. But because ha->dpc_pid hasn't been set
yet, qla2x00_free_device() tries to stop a kernel thread which hasn't started
yet. It does wait_for_completion() against an uninitialised completion struct
and the kernel hangs up.
Fix it by initialising ha->dpc_pid a bit earlier.

sata_qstor strays into a nasty area - gcc handling of wide enums is
full of bugs that got fixed between gcc versions creating portability
nightmare. Single-member enums are safe, so are ones that stay within
the range of int or unsigned int. Anything beyond that is asking for
trouble.
Declaration of constants split in two enums, taking the ~0UL one into
a separate enum.
