There is a bug in the powerpc DABR (data access breakpoint) handling,
which can result in us missing breakpoints if several threads are trying
to break on the same address.
The circumstances are that do_page_fault() calls do_dabr(), this clears
the DABR (sets it to 0) and sets up the signal which will report to
userspace that the DABR was hit. The do_signal() code will restore the DABR
value on the way out to userspace.
If we reschedule before calling do_signal(), __switch_to() will check the
cached DABR value and compare it to the new thread's value, if they match
we don't set the DABR in hardware.
So if two threads have the same DABR value, and we schedule from one to
the other after taking the interrupt for the first thread hitting the DABR,
the second thread will run without the DABR set in hardware.
The cleanest fix is to move the cache update into set_dabr(), that way we
can't forget to do it.

This reverts commit 3811dbf671.
The masking was not at all useless, and it was sensible. We handle
GFP_ZERO in the caller, and passing it down to any page allocator logic
is buggy and wrong.

At present, ppu-gdb can't trace spu infomation with coredump generated
by the kernel. While the core dumps notes have correct contents, they
have the wrong names, as the file descriptors used to generate the note
names are off-by-one. An application that opens a SPE context as fd 3,
the current core dump code will generate notes like:
SPU/4/mem
SPU/4/regs
etc.
This confuses GDB, which knows it is looking for SPE context 3 (from
parsing the spu_context_run system call arguments), and cannot find
any notes that match context 3.
This change corrects the file descriptor counting, to only increment
the fd until after we've written the note name.

During spu_process callback, we release then acquire the SPU, but keep a
pointer to the local store memory. Since the context may have been
scheduled out during the callback, the ls pointer may become invalid.
This change reacquires the pointer to the context local store after
spu_acquire()-ing, so that it isn't invalidated by a context switch.

Based upon a lockdep report.
Since ->poll() can be invoked from netpoll with interrupts
disabled, we must not unconditionally enable interrupts
in napi_complete().
Instead we must use local_irq_{save,restore}().
Noticed by Peter Zijlstra:
<irqs disabled>
netpoll_poll()
poll_napi()
spin_trylock(&napi->poll_lock)
poll_one_napi()
napi->poll() := sky2_poll()
napi_complete()
local_irq_disable()
local_irq_enable() <--- *BUG*
<irq>
irq_exit()
do_softirq()
net_rx_action()
spin_lock(&napi->poll_lock) <--- Deadlock!
Because we still hold the lock....
