If an online-attempt on a CPU which has been offlined using H_CEDE
with an appropriate cede latency hint fails, don't panic.

Instead print the error message and let the __cpu_up() code notify the
CPU Hotplug framework of the failure, which in turn can notify the
other subsystem through CPU_UP_CANCELED.

Set need to call __set_pte_at() and not set_pte_at() from __change_page_attr()
since the later will perform checks with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM that aren't suitable
to the way we override an existing PTE. (More specifically, it doesn't let
you write over a present PTE).

Now we have high res timers there is less of a reason for a high HZ value.
Furthermore I think there a few reasons we should reduce HZ to 100:

- Timer interrupt overhead. While this overhead is small, there are
  applications that are very sensitive to jitter (eg some HPC apps).

- Issues with the timer wheel code. When coming out of NO_HZ idle we work our
  way through the timer code one tick at a time.  If we have been idle a long
  time, this adds up - I sometimes see milliseconds of time spent in that
  loop.

  Long term we should fix the timer wheel algorithm, but for now if we reduce
  HZ then we reduce the amount of work the timer code has to do when coming
  out of idle.

The Collaborative Memory Manager (CMM) module allocates individual pages
over time that are not migratable.  On a long running system this can
severely impact the ability to find enough pages to support a hotplug
memory remove operation.

This patch adds a memory isolation notifier and a memory hotplug notifier.
The memory isolation notifier will return the number of pages found in
the range specified.  This is used to determine if all of the used pages
in a pageblock are owned by the balloon (or other entities in the notifier
chain).  The hotplug notifier will free pages in the range which is to be
removed.  The priority of this hotplug notifier is low so that it will be
called near last, this helps avoids removing loaned pages in operations
that fail due to other handlers.

CMM activity will be halted when hotplug remove operations are active and
resume activity after a delay period to allow the hypervisor time to
adjust.

Memory balloon drivers can allocate a large amount of memory which is not
movable but could be freed to accomodate memory hotplug remove.

Prior to calling the memory hotplug notifier chain the memory in the
pageblock is isolated.  Currently, if the migrate type is not
MIGRATE_MOVABLE the isolation will not proceed, causing the memory removal
for that page range to fail.

Rather than failing pageblock isolation if the migrateteype is not
MIGRATE_MOVABLE, this patch checks if all of the pages in the pageblock,
and not on the LRU, are owned by a registered balloon driver (or other
entity) using a notifier chain.  If all of the non-movable pages are owned
by a balloon, they can be freed later through the memory notifier chain
and the range can still be isolated in set_migratetype_isolate().

I added blk_run_backing_dev on page_cache_async_readahead so readahead I/O
is unpluged to improve throughput on especially RAID environment.

The normal case is, if page N become uptodate at time T(N), then T(N) <=
T(N+1) holds.  With RAID (and NFS to some degree), there is no strict
ordering, the data arrival time depends on runtime status of individual
disks, which breaks that formula.  So in do_generic_file_read(), just
after submitting the async readahead IO request, the current page may well
be uptodate, so the page won't be locked, and the block device won't be
implicitly unplugged:

               if (PageReadahead(page))
                        page_cache_async_readahead()
                if (!PageUptodate(page))
                                goto page_not_up_to_date;
                //...
page_not_up_to_date:
                lock_page_killable(page);

Therefore explicit unplugging can help.

Following is the test result with dd.

RTC core won't allow wakeup alarms to be set if RTC devices' parent (i.e.
i2c_client or spi_device) isn't wakeup capable.

For I2C devices there is I2C_CLIENT_WAKE flag exists that we can pass via
board info, and if set, I2C core will initialize wakeup capability.  For
SPI devices there is no such flag at all.

I believe that it's not platform code responsibility to allow or disallow
wakeups, instead, drivers themselves should set the capability if a device
can trigger wakeups.

That's what drivers/base/power/sysfs.c says:

 * It is the responsibility of device drivers to enable (or disable)
 * wakeup signaling as part of changing device power states, respecting
 * the policy choices provided through the driver model.

I2C and SPI RTC devices send wakeup events via interrupt lines, so we
should set the wakeup capability if IRQ is routed.

Ideally we should also check irq for wakeup capability before setting
device's capability, i.e.

	if (can_irq_wake(irq))
		device_set_wakeup_capable(&client->dev, 1);

But there is no can_irq_wake() call exist, and it is not that trivial to
implement it for all interrupts controllers and complex/cascaded setups.

drivers/base/power/sysfs.c also covers these cases:

 * Devices may not be able to generate wakeup events from all power
 * states.  Also, the events may be ignored in some configurations;
 * for example, they might need help from other devices that aren't
 * active

So there is no guarantee that wakeup will actually work, and so I think
there is no point in being pedantic wrt checking IRQ wakeup capability.

Daniel Drake noticed a crash in the error path of mmc_attach_sdio().  This
bug is discussed at http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/9707.

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 6b6b6c57
IP: [<b066d6e2>] sdio_remove_func+0x9/0x27

We need to accurately track how many SDIO functions have been initialised
(and keep card->sdio_funcs in sync) so that we don't try to remove more
functions than we initialised if we hit the error path in
mmc_attach_sdio().

Without this patch if we hit the error path in mmc_attach_sdio() we run
the risk of deferencing invalid memory in sdio_remove_func(), leading to a
crash.

Thanks to Roland who pointed out de_thread() issues.

Currently we add sub-threads to ->real_parent->children list.  This buys
nothing but slows down do_wait().

With this patch ->children contains only main threads (group leaders).
The only complication is that forget_original_parent() should iterate over
sub-threads by hand, and de_thread() needs another list_replace() when it
changes ->group_leader.

Henceforth do_wait_thread() can never see task_detached() && !EXIT_DEAD
tasks, we can remove this check (and we can unify do_wait_thread() and
ptrace_do_wait()).

This change can confuse the optimistic search in mm_update_next_owner(),
but this is fixable and minor.

Perhaps badness() and oom_kill_process() should be updated, but they
should be fixed in any case.

These were added in

9ac6e44e (lib/vsprintf.c: add %pU to print UUID/GUIDs)
c7dabef8 (vsprintf: use %pR, %pr instead of %pRt, %pRf)
8a27f7c9 (lib/vsprintf.c: Add "%pI6c" - print pointer as compressed ipv6 address)
4aa99606 (printk: add %I4, %I6, %i4, %i6 format specifiers)
dd45c9cf (printk: add %pM format specifier for MAC addresses)

but only added comments to pointer() not vsnprintf() that is refered to by
printk's comments.

Fix following warning in linux-next by guarding the function definition
(both the "extern" and the inline) with #ifdef __KERNEL__.

usr/include/linux/vt.h:89: userspace cannot call function or variable defined in
the kernel

Introduced by commit 5ada918b ("vt:
introduce and use vt_kmsg_redirect() function").

sizeof(viafb_gamma_table) is just the size of the pointer.  This is changed
to the size used when calling kmalloc to initialize the pointer.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression *x;
expression f;
type T;
@@

*f(...,(T)x,...)
