Since the KERN_CONT changes, the current code in show_instructions()
prints out a whole bunch of unnecessary newlines. Change occurrences of
printk("\n") to pr_cont("\n"). While we're here, change all the other
cases of printk(KERN_CONT ...) to pr_cont() as well.

Fix up our oops output by converting continuation lines to use
pr_cont(). Some of these are dubious, eg. printing a continuation line
which starts with a newline, but seem to work OK for now. This whole
function needs a rewrite in the next release.

Since the KERN_CONT changes these are being horribly split across lines,
for example:

    MSR: 8000000000009033 <
    SF,EE
    ,ME,IR
    ,DR,RI
    ,LE>

So fix it by using pr_cont() where appropriate.

Previously we got away with printing the stack trace in multiple pieces
and it usually looked right.  But since commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk:
reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines"), KERN_CONT is now
required when printing continuation lines. Use pr_cont() as appropriate.

It should be ALTIVEC, not ALIVEC.

Cyril explains: If a thread performs a transaction with altivec and then
gets preempted for whatever reason, this bug may cause the kernel to not
re-enable altivec when that thread runs again. This will result in an
altivec unavailable fault, when that fault happens inside a user
transaction the kernel has no choice but to enable altivec and doom the
transaction.

The result is that transactions using altivec may get aborted more often
than they should.

The difficulty in catching this with a selftest is my deliberate use of
the word may above. Optimisations to avoid FPU/altivec/VSX faults mean
that the kernel will always leave them on for 255 switches. This code
prevents the kernel turning it off if it got to the 256th switch (and
userspace was transactional).

Currently the MSR TM bit is always set if the hardware is TM capable.
This adds extra overhead as it means the TM SPRS (TFHAR, TEXASR and
TFAIR) must be swapped for each process regardless of if they use TM.

For processes that don't use TM the TM MSR bit can be turned off
allowing the kernel to avoid the expensive swap of the TM registers.

A TM unavailable exception will occur if a thread does use TM and the
kernel will enable MSR_TM and leave it so for some time afterwards.

There is currently an inconsistency as to how the entire CPU register
state is saved and restored when a thread uses transactional memory
(TM).

Using transactional memory results in the CPU having duplicated
(almost) all of its register state. This duplication results in a set
of registers which can be considered 'live', those being currently
modified by the instructions being executed and another set that is
frozen at a point in time.

On context switch, both sets of state have to be saved and (later)
restored. These two states are often called a variety of different
things. Common terms for the state which only exists after the CPU has
entered a transaction (performed a TBEGIN instruction) in hardware are
'transactional' or 'speculative'.

Between a TBEGIN and a TEND or TABORT (or an event that causes the
hardware to abort), regardless of the use of TSUSPEND the
transactional state can be referred to as the live state.

The second state is often to referred to as the 'checkpointed' state
and is a duplication of the live state when the TBEGIN instruction is
executed. This state is kept in the hardware and will be rolled back
to on transaction failure.

Currently all the registers stored in pt_regs are ALWAYS the live
registers, that is, when a thread has transactional registers their
values are stored in pt_regs and the checkpointed state is in
ckpt_regs. A strange opposite is true for fp_state/vr_state. When a
thread is non transactional fp_state/vr_state holds the live
registers. When a thread has initiated a transaction fp_state/vr_state
holds the checkpointed state and transact_fp/transact_vr become the
structure which holds the live state (at this point it is a
transactional state).

This method creates confusion as to where the live state is, in some
circumstances it requires extra work to determine where to put the
live state and prevents the use of common functions designed (probably
before TM) to save the live state.

With this patch pt_regs, fp_state and vr_state all represent the
same thing and the other structures [pending rename] are for
checkpointed state.

After a thread is reclaimed from its active or suspended transactional
state the checkpointed state exists on CPU, this state (along with the
live/transactional state) has been saved in its entirety by the
reclaiming process.

There exists a sequence of events that would cause the kernel to call
one of enable_kernel_fp(), enable_kernel_altivec() or
enable_kernel_vsx() after a thread has been reclaimed. These functions
save away any user state on the CPU so that the kernel can use the
registers. Not only is this saving away unnecessary at this point, it
is actually incorrect. It causes a save of the checkpointed state to
the live structures within the thread struct thus destroying the true
live state for that thread.

msr_check_and_set() always performs a mfmsr() to determine if it needs
to perform an mtmsr(), as mfmsr() can be a costly operation
msr_check_and_set() could return the MSR now on the CPU to avoid
callers of msr_check_and_set having to make their own mfmsr() call.
