Use the proper helper to open a blockdevice by name for filesystem use,
this makes sure it's properly claimed (also added for open-by-number) and
gets rid of the struct file abuse.
Tested by mounting a reiserfs filesystem with external journal.

Fuse will use temporary buffers to write back dirty data from memory mappings
(normal writes are done synchronously). This is needed, because there cannot
be any guarantee about the time in which a write will complete.
By using temporary buffers, from the MM's point if view the page is written
back immediately. If the writeout was due to memory pressure, this
effectively migrates data from a full zone to a less full zone.
This patch adds a new counter (NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP) for the number of pages used
as temporary buffers.

Add a new BDI capability flag: BDI_CAP_NO_ACCT_WB. If this flag is
set, then don't update the per-bdi writeback stats from
test_set_page_writeback() and test_clear_page_writeback().
Misc cleanups:
- convert bdi_cap_writeback_dirty() and friends to static inline functions
- create a flag that includes all three dirty/writeback related flags,
since almst all users will want to have them toghether

Under normal circumstances each device is given a part of the total write-back
cache that relates to its current avg writeout speed in relation to the other
devices.
min_ratio - allows one to assign a minimum portion of the write-back cache to
a particular device. This is useful in situations where you might want to
provide a minimum QoS. (One request for this feature came from flash based
storage people who wanted to avoid writing out at all costs - they of course
needed some pdflush hacks as well)
max_ratio - allows one to assign a maximum portion of the dirty limit to a
particular device. This is useful in situations where you want to avoid one
device taking all or most of the write-back cache. Eg. an NFS mount that is
prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount which you don't trust to play fair.
Add "min_ratio" to /sys/class/bdi. This indicates the minimum percentage of
the global dirty threshold allocated to this bdi.

Provide a place in sysfs (/sys/class/bdi) for the backing_dev_info object.
This allows us to see and set the various BDI specific variables.
In particular this properly exposes the read-ahead window for all relevant

These values represent the nesting level of a namespace and pids living in it,
and it's always non-negative.
Turning this from int to unsigned int saves some space in pid.c (11 bytes on
x86 and 64 on ia64) by letting the compiler optimize the pid_nr_ns a bit.
E.g. on ia64 this removes the sign extension calls, which compiler adds to
optimize access to pid->nubers[ns->level].

Based on Eric W. Biederman's idea.
Without tasklist_lock held task_session()/task_pgrp() can return NULL if the
caller races with setprgp()/setsid() which does detach_pid() + attach_pid().
This can happen even if task == current.
Intoduce the new helper, change_pid(), which should be used instead. This way
the caller always sees the special pid != NULL, either old or new.
Also change the prototype of attach_pid(), it always returns 0 and nobody
check the returned value.

There are some places that are known to operate on tasks'
global pids only:
* the rest_init() call (called on boot)
* the kgdb's getthread
* the create_kthread() (since the kthread is run in init ns)
So use the find_task_by_pid_ns(..., &init_pid_ns) there
and schedule the find_task_by_pid for removal.

Set TIF_SIGPENDING in set_restore_sigmask. This lets arch code take
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK out of the set of bits that will be noticed on return to
user mode. On some machines those bits are scarce, and we can free this
unneeded one up for other uses.
It is probably the case that TIF_SIGPENDING is always set anyway everywhere
set_restore_sigmask() is used. But this is some cheap paranoia in case there
is an arcane case where it might not be.

The global init has a lot of long standing problems with the unhandled fatal
signals.
- The "is_global_init(current)" check in get_signal_to_deliver()
protects only the main thread. Sub-thread can dequee the fatal
signal and shutdown the whole thread group except the main thread.
If it dequeues SIGSTOP /sbin/init will be stopped, this is not
right too. Note that we can't use is_global_init(->group_leader),
this breaks exec and this can't solve other problems we have.
- Even if afterwards ignored, the fatal signals sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
on delivery. This breaks exec, has other bad implications, and this
is just wrong.
Introduce the new SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag to fix these problems. It also helps
to solve some other problems addressed by the subsequent patches.
Currently we use this flag for the global init only, but it could also be used
by kthreads and (perhaps) by the sub-namespace inits.

Based on discussion with Jiri and Roland.
In short: currently handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT, p) sends the notification to
p->parent, with this patch p itself notifies its parent when it becomes
running.
handle_stop_signal(SIGCONT) has to drop ->siglock temporary in order to notify
the parent with do_notify_parent_cldstop(). This leads to multiple problems:
- as Jiri Kosina pointed out, the stopped task can resume without
actually seeing SIGCONT which may have a handler.
- we race with another sig_kernel_stop() signal which may come in
that window.
- we race with sig_fatal() signals which may set SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
in that window.
- we can't avoid taking tasklist_lock() while sending SIGCONT.
With this patch handle_stop_signal() just sets the new SIGNAL_CLD_CONTINUED
flag in p->signal->flags and returns. The notification is sent by the first
task which returns from finish_stop() (there should be at least one) or any
other signalled thread from get_signal_to_deliver().
This is a user-visible change. Say, currently kill(SIGCONT, stopped_child)
can't return without seeing SIGCHLD, with this patch SIGCHLD can be delayed
unpredictably. Another difference is that if the child is ptraced by another
process, CLD_CONTINUED may be delivered to ->real_parent after ptrace_detach()
while currently it always goes to the tracer which doesn't actually need this
notification. Hopefully not a problem.
The patch asks for the futher obvious cleanups, I'll send them separately.

Reasons:
1. straight forward: the name "LCD_COLOR_DSTN_16BPP" is much better
than "LCCR0_Pas | LCCR0_Color | LCCR0_Dual"
2. by defining LCD connection types as constants, it allows only
valid possibilities
3. by removing the dependency of register bits definitions, those
can be later moved into the body of pxafb.c, instead of having
a regs-lcd.h around
Currently, only lubbock, mainstone, zylonite and littleton have been
modified to support these types (see coming patches after this).
Other platforms are encouraged to change their way describing the
LCD controller connections.

This is part of the effort moving peripheral registers outside of pxa-regs.h,
and using ioremap() make it possible the same IP can be re-used on different
processors with different registers space
As a result, the fixed mapping in pxa_map_io() is removed.
The regs-lcd.h can actually moved to where closer to pxafb.c but some of its
bit definitions are directly used by various platform code, though this is not
a good style.

This lets us use defines for the magic bits in machine flags instead
of using plain numbers all over the place.
In addition on newer machines features/facilities are indicated by the
result of the stfl instruction. So we use these bits instead of trying
to execute new instructions and check wether we get an exception or
not.
Also the mvpg instruction is always available when in zArch mode,
whereas the idte instruction is only available in zArch mode. This
results in some minor optimizations.

This is where it should be and we can get rid of some externs
and a static inline function.

Move ext4 headers out of include/linux. This is just the trivial move,
there's some more thing that could be done later.

Fix following section mismatch warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x275616): Section mismatch in reference from the function pci_scan_bus() to the function .devinit.text:pci_scan_bus_parented()
The warning was seen with a CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y build.
The inline function pci_scan_bus refer to functions annotated
__devinit - so annotate it __devinit too.
This revealed a few x86 specific functions that were only
used from __init or __devinit context.
So annotate these __devinit and the warning was killed.
The added include in pci.h was not strictly required but
added to avoid being dependent on indirect includes.

spin_is_locked() doesn't work on UP without spinlock debugging. Make it
safer and just return 1 on UP, so we don't get false positives. The plan
is to kill this debug function during the -rc cycle.

The new queue_flag_set/clear() functions verify that the queue is
locked, but in doing so they will actually instead oops if the queue
lock hasn't been initialized at all.
So fix the lock debug test to consider the "no lock" case to be
unlocked. This way you get a nice WARN_ON_ONCE() instead of a fatal
oops.
Bug introduced by commit 75ad23bc0fcb4f992a5d06982bf0857ab1738e9e
("block: make queue flags non-atomic").
