Timur Tabi 3296193d14 dt: introduce for_each_available_child_of_node, of_get_next_available_child
Macro for_each_child_of_node() makes it easy to iterate over all of the
children for a given device tree node, including those nodes that are
marked as unavailable (i.e. status = "disabled").

Introduce for_each_available_child_of_node(), which is like
for_each_child_of_node(), but it automatically skips unavailable nodes.
This also requires the introduction of helper function
of_get_next_available_child(), which returns the next available child
node.

Linus Torvalds 2d53492620 irqdomain changes for Linux v3.6
Round of refactoring and enhancements to irq_domain infrastructure. This
 series starts the process of simplifying irqdomain. The ultimate goal is
 to merge LEGACY, LINEAR and TREE mappings into a single system, but had
 to back off from that after some last minute bugs. Instead it mainly
 reorganizes the code and ensures that the reverse map gets populated
 when the irq is mapped instead of the first time it is looked up.
 
 Merging of the irq_domain types is deferred to v3.7
 
 In other news, this series adds helpers for creating static mappings on
 a linear or tree mapping.

 "Very much Ack on the new subsystem.  It uses the interface
  declarations as the previously separate pwm drivers, so nothing
  changes for now in the drivers using it, although it enables us to
  change those more easily in the future if we want to.

  This work is also one of the missing pieces that are required to
  eventually build ARM kernels for multiple platforms, which is
  currently prohibited (amongs other things) by the fact that you cannot
  have more than one driver exporting the pwm functions."

Paul Mundt 5ca4db61e8 irqdomain: Simple NUMA awareness.
While common irqdesc allocation is node aware, the irqdomain code is not.

Presently we observe a number of regressions/inconsistencies on
NUMA-capable platforms:

- Platforms using irqdomains with legacy mappings, where the
  irq_descs are allocated node-local and the irqdomain data
  structure is not.

- Drivers implementing irqdomains will lose node locality
  regardless of the underlying struct device's node id.

This plugs in NUMA node id proliferation across the various allocation
callsites by way of_node_to_nid() node lookup. While of_node_to_nid()
does the right thing for OF-capable platforms it doesn't presently handle
the non-DT case. This is trivially dealt with by simply wraping in to
numa_node_id() unconditionally.

Pull powerpc merge from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
 "Here's the powerpc batch for this merge window.  It is going to be a
  bit more nasty than usual as in touching things outside of
  arch/powerpc mostly due to the big iSeriesectomy :-) We finally got
  rid of the bugger (legacy iSeries support) which was a PITA to
  maintain and that nobody really used anymore.

  Here are some of the highlights:

   - Legacy iSeries is gone.  Thanks Stephen ! There's still some bits
     and pieces remaining if you do a grep -ir series arch/powerpc but
     they are harmless and will be removed in the next few weeks
     hopefully.

   - The 'fadump' functionality (Firmware Assisted Dump) replaces the
     previous (equivalent) "pHyp assisted dump"...  it's a rewrite of a
     mechanism to get the hypervisor to do crash dumps on pSeries, the
     new implementation hopefully being much more reliable.  Thanks
     Mahesh Salgaonkar.

   - The "EEH" code (pSeries PCI error handling & recovery) got a big
     spring cleaning, motivated by the need to be able to implement a
     new backend for it on top of some new different type of firwmare.

     The work isn't complete yet, but a good chunk of the cleanups is
     there.  Note that this adds a field to struct device_node which is
     not very nice and which Grant objects to.  I will have a patch soon
     that moves that to a powerpc private data structure (hopefully
     before rc1) and we'll improve things further later on (hopefully
     getting rid of the need for that pointer completely).  Thanks Gavin
     Shan.

   - I dug into our exception & interrupt handling code to improve the
     way we do lazy interrupt handling (and make it work properly with
     "edge" triggered interrupt sources), and while at it found & fixed
     a wagon of issues in those areas, including adding support for page
     fault retry & fatal signals on page faults.

   - Your usual random batch of small fixes & updates, including a bunch
     of new embedded boards, both Freescale and APM based ones, etc..."

I fixed up some conflicts with the generalized irq-domain changes from
Grant Likely, hopefully correctly.

Gavin Shan eb740b5f3e powerpc/eeh: Introduce EEH device
Original EEH implementation depends on struct pci_dn heavily. However,
EEH shouldn't depend on that actually because EEH needn't share much
information with other PCI components. That's to say, EEH should have
worked independently.

The patch introduces struct eeh_dev so that EEH core components needn't
be working based on struct pci_dn in future. Also, struct pci_dn, struct
eeh_dev instances are created in dynamic fasion and the binding with EEH
device, OF node, PCI device is implemented as well.

The EEH devices are created after PHBs are detected and initialized, but
PCI emunation hasn't started yet. Apart from that, PHB might be created
dynamically through DLPAR component and the EEH devices should be creatd
as well. Another case might be OF node is created dynamically by DR
(Dynamic Reconfiguration), which has been defined by PAPR. For those OF
nodes created by DR, EEH devices should be also created accordingly. The
binding between EEH device and OF node is done while the EEH device is
initially created.

The binding between EEH device and PCI device should be done after PCI
emunation is done. Besides, PCI hotplug also needs the binding so that
the EEH devices could be traced from the newly coming PCI buses or PCI
devices.

Only two architectures use the OF node reference counting and reclaim bits.
There is no need to compile it for the rest of the PowerPC platforms or for
any of the other architectures.  This patch makes iseries and pseries
select CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC, and makes it default to off for everything else.

It is still safe to turn on CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC on all architectures, it just
isn't necessary.

Grant Likely 15c9a0acc3 of: create of_phandle_args to simplify return of phandle parsing data
of_parse_phandle_with_args() needs to return quite a bit of data.  Rather
than making each datum a separate **out_ argument, this patch creates
struct of_phandle_args to contain all the returned data and reworks the
user of the function.  This patch also enables of_parse_phandle_with_args()
to return the device node pointer for the phandle node.

This patch also ends up being fairly major surgery to
of_parse_handle_with_args().  The existing structure didn't work well
when extending to use of_phandle_args, and I discovered bugs during testing.
I also took the opportunity to rename the function to be like the
existing of_parse_phandle().

v2: - moved declaration of of_phandle_args to fix compile on non-DT builds
    - fixed incorrect index in example usage
    - fixed incorrect return code handling for empty entries
