This fixes an oops when reading /proc/sched_debug.
A cgroup won't be removed completely until finishing cgroup_diput(), so we
shouldn't invalidate cgrp->dentry in cgroup_rmdir(). Otherwise, when a
group is being removed while cgroup_path() gets called, we may trigger
NULL dereference BUG.
The bug can be reproduced:
# cat test.sh
#!/bin/sh
mount -t cgroup -o cpu xxx /mnt
for (( ; ; ))
{
mkdir /mnt/sub
rmdir /mnt/sub
}
# ./test.sh &
# cat /proc/sched_debug

Move the migrate_prep outside the mmap_sem for the following system calls
1. sys_move_pages
2. sys_migrate_pages
3. sys_mbind()
It really does not matter when we flush the lru. The system is free to
add pages onto the lru even during migration which will make the page
migration either skip the page (mbind, migrate_pages) or return a busy
state (move_pages).
Fixes this lockdep warning (and potential deadlock):
Some VM place has
mmap_sem -> kevent_wq via lru_add_drain_all()
net/core/dev.c::dev_ioctl() has
rtnl_lock -> mmap_sem (*) the ioctl has copy_from_user() and it can do page fault.
linkwatch_event has

As we can determine exactly when a gigantic page is in use we can optimise
the common regular page cases by pulling out gigantic page initialisation
into its own function. As gigantic pages are never released to buddy we
do not need a destructor. This effectivly reverts the previous change to
the main buddy allocator. It also adds a paranoid check to ensure we
never release gigantic pages from hugetlbfs to the main buddy.

When working with hugepages, hugetlbfs assumes that those hugepages are
smaller than MAX_ORDER. Specifically it assumes that the mem_map is
contigious and uses that to optimise access to the elements of the mem_map
that represent the hugepage. Gigantic pages (such as 16GB pages on
powerpc) by definition are of greater order than MAX_ORDER (larger than
MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES in size). This means that we can no longer make use of
the buddy alloctor guarentees for the contiguity of the mem_map, which
ensures that the mem_map is at least contigious for maximmally aligned
areas of MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES pages.
This patch adds new mem_map accessors and iterator helpers which handle
any discontiguity at MAX_ORDER_NR_PAGES boundaries. It then uses these to
implement gigantic page versions of copy_huge_page and clear_huge_page,
and to allow follow_hugetlb_page handle gigantic pages.

On 32-bit PAE, pud_page, for no good reason, didn't really return a

pud_page does return a struct page *.
Because PAE has 3 pagetable levels, the pud level is folded into the
pgd level, so pgd_page() is the same as pud_page(), and now returns
a struct page *. Update the xen/mmu.c code which uses pgd_page()
accordingly.

__scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list

Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again.
There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur.
The idea for how to fix this is from Linus. Basically, we do all of
the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list
objects hit by an fput(). Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we
keep running the list until it is empty.

Ok, I believe this is due to the addition of rfkill_check_duplicity in

rather than the postive one expected (which is of course equally true).
So when the second WLAN device (the hso device, with the EEE PC WLAN
being the first) comes along rfkill_check_duplicity returns a negative
value and so rfkill_register returns an error. Patch below fixes this

This fixes a regression introduced by 2c6e6db41f
"Minimize per_cpu reservations." That patch incorrectly used information about
what CPUs are possible that was not yet initialized by ACPI. The end result
was that per_cpu structures for offline CPUs were not initialized causing a
NULL pointer reference.
Since we cannot do the full acpi_boot_init() call any earlier, the simplest
fix is to just parse the MADT for SAPIC entries early to find the CPU
info. This should also allow for some cleanup of the code added by the
"Minimize per_cpu reservations". This patch just fixes the regressions, the
cleanup will come in a later patch.

Impact: fix rare x2apic hang
On x86, x2apic mode accesses for sending IPI's don't have serializing
semantics. If the IPI receivner refers(in lock-free fashion) to some
memory setup by the sender, the need for smp_mb() before sending the
IPI becomes critical in x2apic mode.
Add the smp_mb() in native_flush_tlb_others() before sending the IPI.

We currently oops with a divide error on starting a linear software
raid array consisting of at least two very small (< 500K) devices.
The bug is caused by the calculation of the hash table size which
tries to compute sector_div(sz, base) with "base" being zero due to
the small size of the component devices of the array.
Fix this by requiring the hash spacing to be at least one which
implies that also "base" is non-zero.
This bug has existed since about 2.6.14.

Impact: introduce new APIs
We want to deprecate cpumasks on the stack, as we are headed for
gynormous numbers of CPUs. Eventually, we want to head towards an
undefined 'struct cpumask' so they can never be declared on stack.
1) New cpumask functions which take pointers instead of copies.
(cpus_* -> cpumask_*)
2) Several new helpers to reduce requirements for temporary cpumasks
(cpumask_first_and, cpumask_next_and, cpumask_any_and)
3) Helpers for declaring cpumasks on or offstack for large NR_CPUS
(cpumask_var_t, alloc_cpumask_var and free_cpumask_var)
4) 'struct cpumask' for explicitness and to mark new-style code.
5) Make iterator functions stop at nr_cpu_ids (a runtime constant),
not NR_CPUS for time efficiency and for smaller dynamic allocations
in future.
6) cpumask_copy() so we can allocate less than a full cpumask eventually
(for alloc_cpumask_var), and so we can eliminate the 'struct cpumask'
definition eventually.
7) work_on_cpu() helper for doing task on a CPU, rather than saving old
cpumask for current thread and manipulating it.
8) smp_call_function_many() which is smp_call_function_mask() except
taking a cpumask pointer.
Note that this patch simply introduces the new functions and leaves
the obsolescent ones in place. This is to simplify the transition
patches.

This patch (as1159b) changes the timeout routines in the block core to
use round_jiffies_up(). There's no point in rounding the timer
deadline down, since if it expires too early we will have to restart
it.
The patch also removes some unnecessary tests when a request is
removed from the queue's timer list.
