3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Cliff Wickman <[email protected]>

commit d5d2d2eea84b0d8450b082edbc3dbde41fb8bfd8 upstream.

The SGI Altix UV2 BAU (Broadcast Assist Unit) as used for
tlb-shootdown (selective broadcast mode) always uses UV2
broadcast descriptor format. There is no need to clear the
'legacy' (UV1) mode, because the hardware always uses UV2 mode
for selective broadcast.

But the BIOS uses general broadcast and legacy mode, and the
hardware pays attention to the legacy mode bit for general
broadcast. So the kernel must not clear that mode bit.
