Linus Torvalds f9dadfa71b i386: write IO APIC irq routing entries in correct order
Since the "mask" bit is in the low word, when we write a new entry, we
need to write the high word first, before we potentially unmask it.

The exception is when we actually want to mask the interrupt, in which
case we want to write the low word first to make sure that the high word
doesn't change while the interrupt routing is still active.

Linus Torvalds 130fe05dbc i386: clean up io-apic accesses
This is preparation for fixing the ordering of the accesses that
got broken by the commit cf4c6a2f27 when
factoring out the "common" io apic routing entry accesses.

Move the accessor function (that were only used by io_apic.c) out
of a header file, and use proper memory-mapped accesses rather than
making up our own "volatile" pointers.

Linus Torvalds aa95387774 cpu hotplug: simplify and hopefully fix locking
The CPU hotplug locking was quite messy, with a recursive lock to
handle the fact that both the actual up/down sequence wanted to
protect itself from being re-entered, but the callbacks that it
called also tended to want to protect themselves from CPU events.

This splits the lock into two (one to serialize the whole hotplug
sequence, the other to protect against the CPU present bitmaps
changing). The latter still allows recursive usage because some
subsystems (ondemand policy for cpufreq at least) had already gotten
too used to the lax locking, but the locking mistakes are hopefully
now less fundamental, and we now warn about recursive lock usage
when we see it, in the hope that it can be fixed.

Linus Torvalds 2cd7cbdf4b [cpufreq] ondemand: make shutdown sequence more robust
Shutting down the ondemand policy was fraught with potential
problems, causing issues for SMP suspend (which wants to hot-
unplug) all but the last CPU.

This should fix at least the worst problems (divide-by-zero
and infinite wait for the workqueue to shut down).

Linus Torvalds 7c3dec0679 x86 MacMini: make built-in speaker sound actually work
The MacMini board table seems to largely look like any bog-standard
Intel 945 board.

Linus Torvalds b862f3b099 i386: improve and correct inline asm memory constraints
Use "+m" rather than a combination of "=m" and "m" for improved clarity
and consistency.

This also fixes some inlines that incorrectly didn't tell the compiler
that they read the old value at all, potentially causing the compiler to
generate bogus code.  It appear that all of those potential bugs were
hidden by the use of extra "volatile" specifiers on the data structures
in question, though.
