      smp: Provide generic idle thread allocation · 29d5e047
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      All SMP architectures have magic to fork the idle task and to store it
      for reusage when cpu hotplug is enabled. Provide a generic
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Create/reinit the idle thread for the cpu which is brought up in the
      generic code and hand the thread pointer to the architecture code via
      __cpu_up().
      
      Note, that fork_idle() is called via a workqueue, because this
      guarantees that the idle thread does not get a reference to a user
      space VM. This can happen when the boot process did not bring up all
      possible cpus and a later cpu_up() is initiated via the sysfs
      interface. In that case fork_idle() would be called in the context of
      the user space task and take a reference on the user space VM.

      None of the callsites actually need the page_cgroup descriptor
      themselves, so just pass the page and do the look up in there.
      
      We already had two bugs (6568d4a9 'mm: memcg: update the correct soft
      limit tree during migration' and 'memcg: fix Bad page state after
      replace_page_cache') where the passed page and pc were not referring
      to the same page frame.

      mm: nobootmem: Correct alloc_bootmem semantics. · 4e1c2b28
      David Miller authored
      The comments above __alloc_bootmem_node() claim that the code will
      first try the allocation using 'goal' and if that fails it will
      try again but with the 'goal' requirement dropped.
      
      Unfortunately, this is not what the code does, so fix it to do so.
      
      This is important for nobootmem conversions to architectures such
      as sparc where MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is infinity.
      
      On such architectures all of the allocations done by generic spots,
      such as the sparse-vmemmap implementation, will pass in:
      
      	__pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)
      
      as the goal, and with the limit given as "-1" this will always fail
      unless we add the appropriate fallback logic here.
