<title>x86: Derandom delay_tsc for 64 bit</title>

<content type='text'>
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) &gt;= 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.

<content type='text'>
There was a latent typo in the C6X KSTK_EIP and KSTK_ESP macros which
caused a problem with a new patch which used them. The broken definitions
were of the form:

  #define KSTK_FOO(tsk) (task_pt_regs(task)-&gt;foo)

Note the use of task vs tsk. This actually worked before because the
only place in the kernel which used these macros passed in a local
pointer named task.

When a CPU is taken out of reset, either cold booted or hotplugged in,
some of its PMU registers can contain UNKNOWN values.

This patch adds a hotplug notifier to ARM core perf code so that upon
CPU restart the PMU unit is reset and becomes ready to use again.
