Implement functionality of creation AttributesFile metadata file on HFS+
volume in the case of absence of it.
It makes trying to open AttributesFile's B-tree during mount of HFS+
volume. If HFS+ volume hasn't AttributesFile then a pointer on
AttributesFile's B-tree keeps as NULL. Thereby, when it is discovered
absence of AttributesFile on HFS+ volume in the begin of xattr creation
operation then AttributesFile will be created.
The creation of AttributesFile will have success in the case of
availability (2 * clump) free blocks on HFS+ volume. Otherwise,
creation operation is ended with error (-ENOSPC).

There are situation when HFS+ volume had been created without
AttributesFile. Such situation can take place because of using old
mkfs.hfs utility or creation HFS+ volume without taking in mind
necessity to use xattrs. For example, Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) doesn't
create AttributesFile during mkfs phase. Also it is a very frequent
situation for the case of users that created HFS+ volumes under Linux.
As a result, xattrs and POSIX ACLs on HFS+ volume are unavailable for
such users.
This patchset implements functionality of AttributesFile creation on
HFS+ volume in the case of this metadata file absence during operation
of xattr creation.
This patch:
Add functionality of metadata file's clump size calculation. Operation
of AttributesFile creation needs in clump size setting. This value will
be used when AttributesFile will be extended.
This code is adopted from code of newfs_hfs utility of diskdev_cmds packet
http://opensource.apple.com/tarballs/diskdev_cmds/.

When expert configuration option(CONFIG_EXPERT) is enabled, menuconfig
offers a choice of compression algorithm to compress initial ramfs image;
This choice is stored into CONFIG_RD_* variables. But usr/Makefile uses
earlier INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_* macros to build initial ramfs file. Since
none of them is defined, resulting 'initramfs_data.cpio' file remains
un-compressed.
This patch updates the Makefile to use CONFIG_RD_* variables and adds
support for LZ4 compression algorithm. Also updates the
'gen_initramfs_list.sh' script to check whether a selected compression
command is accessible or not. And fall-back to default gzip(1)
compression when it is not.

This patch proposes to make init failures more explicit.
Before this, the "No init found" message didn't help much. It could
sometimes be misleading and actually mean "No *working* init found".
This message could hide many different issues:
- no init program candidates found at all
- some init program candidates exist but can't be executed (missing
execute permissions, failed to load shared libraries, executable
compiled for an unknown architecture...)
This patch notifies the kernel user when a candidate init program is found
but can't be executed. In each failure situation, the error code is
displayed, to quickly find the root cause. "No init found" is also
replaced by "No working init found", which is more correct.
This will help embedded Linux developers (especially the newcomers),
regularly making and debugging new root filesystems.

Make menuconfig allows one to choose compression format of an initial
ramdisk image. But this choice does not result in duly compressed initial
ramdisk image. Because - $ make install - does not pass on the selected
compression choice to the dracut(8) tool, which creates the initramfs
file. dracut(8) generates the image with the default compression, ie.
gzip(1).
If a user chose any other compression instead of gzip(1), it leads to a
crash due to NULL pointer dereference in crd_load(), caused by a NULL
function pointer returned by the 'decompress_method()' routine. Because
the initramfs image is gzip(1) compressed, whereas the kernel knows only
to decompress the chosen format and not gzip(1).
This patch replaces the crash by an explicit panic() call with an
appropriate error message. This shall prevent the kernel from
eventually panicking in: init/do_mounts.c: mount_block_root() with
-> panic("VFS: Unable to mount root fs on %s", b);

When calling EPOLL_CTL_ADD for an epoll file descriptor that is attached
directly to a wakeup source, we do not need to take the global 'epmutex',
unless the epoll file descriptor is nested. The purpose of taking the
'epmutex' on add is to prevent complex topologies such as loops and deep
wakeup paths from forming in parallel through multiple EPOLL_CTL_ADD
operations. However, for the simple case of an epoll file descriptor
attached directly to a wakeup source (with no nesting), we do not need to
hold the 'epmutex'.
This patch along with 'epoll: optimize EPOLL_CTL_DEL using rcu' improves
scalability on larger systems. Quoting Nathan Zimmer's mail on SPECjbb
performance:
"On the 16 socket run the performance went from 35k jOPS to 125k jOPS. In
addition the benchmark when from scaling well on 10 sockets to scaling
well on just over 40 sockets.
...
Currently the benchmark stops scaling at around 40-44 sockets but it seems like
I found a second unrelated bottleneck."

Nathan Zimmer found that once we get over 10+ cpus, the scalability of
SPECjbb falls over due to the contention on the global 'epmutex', which is
taken in on EPOLL_CTL_ADD and EPOLL_CTL_DEL operations.
Patch #1 removes the 'epmutex' lock completely from the EPOLL_CTL_DEL path
by using rcu to guard against any concurrent traversals.
Patch #2 remove the 'epmutex' lock from EPOLL_CTL_ADD operations for
simple topologies. IE when adding a link from an epoll file descriptor to
a wakeup source, where the epoll file descriptor is not nested.
This patch (of 2):
Optimize EPOLL_CTL_DEL such that it does not require the 'epmutex' by
converting the file->f_ep_links list into an rcu one. In this way, we can
traverse the epoll network on the add path in parallel with deletes.
Since deletes can't create loops or worse wakeup paths, this is safe.
This patch in combination with the patch "epoll: Do not take global 'epmutex'
for simple topologies", shows a dramatic performance improvement in
scalability for SPECjbb.

Add a warning when the sscanf return value is not used.
For now, do not add __must_check to the sscanf prototype because that will
