Commit f0fbf0abc093 ("x86: integrate delay functions") converted
delay_tsc() into a random delay generator for 64 bit.  The reason is
that it merged the mostly identical versions of delay_32.c and
delay_64.c.  Though the subtle difference of the result was:

 static void delay_tsc(unsigned long loops)
 {
-	unsigned bclock, now;
+	unsigned long bclock, now;

Now the function uses rdtscl() which returns the lower 32bit of the
TSC. On 32bit that's not problematic as unsigned long is 32bit. On 64
bit this fails when the lower 32bit are close to wrap around when
bclock is read, because the following check

       if ((now - bclock) >= loops)
       	  	break;

evaluated to true on 64bit for e.g. bclock = 0xffffffff and now = 0
because the unsigned long (now - bclock) of these values results in
0xffffffff00000001 which is definitely larger than the loops
value. That explains Tvortkos observation:

"Because I am seeing udelay(500) (_occasionally_) being short, and
 that by delaying for some duration between 0us (yep) and 491us."

Make those variables explicitely u32 again, so this works for both 32
and 64 bit.

It turns out that test-compiling this file on x86-64 doesn't really
help, because much of it is x86-32-specific.  And so I hadn't noticed
the slightly over-eager removal of the 'r' from 'addr' variable despite
thinking I had tested it.

Several users of "find_vma_prev()" were not in fact interested in the
previous vma if there was no primary vma to be found either.  And in
those cases, we're much better off just using the regular "find_vma()",
and then "prev" can be looked up by just checking vma->vm_prev.

The find_vma_prev() semantics are fairly subtle (see Mikulas' recent
commit 83cd904d271b: "mm: fix find_vma_prev"), and the whole "return
prev by reference" means that it generates worse code too.

Thus this "let's avoid using this inconvenient and clearly too subtle
interface when we don't really have to" patch.

It turned out that a performance counter on AMD does not
count at all when the GO or HO bit is set in the control
register and SVM is disabled in EFER.

This patch works around this issue by masking out the HO bit
in the performance counter control register when SVM is not
enabled.

The GO bit is not touched because it is only set when the
user wants to count in guest-mode only. So when SVM is
disabled the counter should not run at all and the
not-counting is the intended behaviour.

Carlos was getting

	WARNING: at drivers/pci/pci.c:118 pci_ioremap_bar+0x24/0x52()

when probing his sound card, and sound did not work.  After adding
pci=use_crs to the kernel command line, no more trouble.

Ok, we can add a quirk.  dmidecode output reveals that this is an MSI
MS-7253, for which we already have a quirk, but the short-sighted
author tied the quirk to a single BIOS version, making it not kick in
on Carlos's machine with BIOS V1.2.  If a later BIOS update makes it
no longer necessary to look at the _CRS info it will still be
harmless, so let's stop trying to guess which versions have and don't
have accurate _CRS tables.

In the spirit of commit 29cf7a30f8a0 ("x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS
info on ASUS M2V-MX SE"), this DMI quirk turns on "pci_use_crs" by
default on a board that needs it.

This fixes boot failures and oopses introduced in 3e3da00c01d0
("x86/pci: AMD one chain system to use pci read out res").  The quirk
is quite targetted (to a specific board and BIOS version) for two
reasons:

 (1) to emphasize that this method of tackling the problem one quirk
     at a time is a little insane

 (2) to give BIOS vendors an opportunity to use simpler tables and
     allow us to return to generic behavior (whatever that happens to
     be) with a later BIOS update

In other words, I am not at all happy with having quirks like this.
But it is even worse for the kernel not to work out of the box on
these machines, so...
