That field will contain internal state information which is not going
to be exposed to anything outside the core code - except via accessor
functions. I'm tired of everyone fiddling in irq_desc.status.
core_internal_state__do_not_mess_with_it is clear enough, annoying to
type and easy to grep for. Offenders will be tracked down and slapped
with stinking trouts.

All archs implement show_interrupts() in more or less the same
way. That's tons of duplicated code with different bugs with no
value. Implement a generic version and deprecate show_interrupts()
Unfortunately we need some ifdeffery for !GENERIC_HARDIRQ archs.

With the chip.end() function gone we might run into a situation where
a poll call runs and the real interrupt comes in, sees IRQ_INPROGRESS
and disables the line. That might be a perfect working one, which will
then be masked forever.
So mark them polled while the poll runs. When the real handler sees
IRQ_INPROGRESS it checks the poll flag and waits for the polling to
complete. Add the necessary amount of sanity checks to it to avoid
deadlocks.

While rumaging through arch code I found that there are a few
workarounds which deal with the fact that the initial affinity setting
from request_irq() copies the mask into irq_data->affinity before the
chip code is called. In the normal path we unconditionally copy the
mask when the chip code returns 0.
Copy after the code is called and add a return code
IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY for the chip functions, which prevents the
copy. That way we see the real mask when the chip function decided to
truncate it further as some arches do. IRQ_SET_MASK_OK is 0, which is
the current behaviour.

The irq namespace has become quite convoluted. My bad. Clean it up
and deprecate the old functions. All new functions follow the scheme:
irq number based:
irq_set/get/xxx/_xxx(unsigned int irq, ...)
irq_data based:
irq_data_set/get/xxx/_xxx(struct irq_data *d, ....)
irq_desc based:
irq_desc_get_xxx(struct irq_desc *desc)

When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption
errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra
debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries.
However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding
the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that.
So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries,
we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them..

This patch re-enables UIE timer/polling emulation for rtc devices

Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.
This patch reverts the following commits:
042620a018afcfba1d678062b62e46 - Remove UIE emulation
1daeddd5962acad1bea55e524fc0fa - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration
b5cc8ca1c9c3a37eaddf709b2fd3e1 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation
The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following
patch before it will work.

There are two spellings in use for 'freeze' + 'able' - 'freezable' and
'freezeable'. The former is the more prominent one. The latter is
mostly used by workqueue and in a few other odd places. Unify the
spelling to 'freezable'.

Currently the syscall_meta structures for the syscall tracepoints are
placed in the __syscall_metadata section, and at link time, the linker
makes one large array of all these syscall metadata structures. On boot
up, this array is read (much like the initcall sections) and the syscall
data is processed.
The problem is that there is no guarantee that gcc will place complex
structures nicely together in an array format. Two structures in the
same file may be placed awkwardly, because gcc has no clue that they
are suppose to be in an array.
A hack was used previous to force the alignment to 4, to pack the
structures together. But this caused alignment issues with other
architectures (sparc).
Instead of packing the structures into an array, the structures' addresses
are now put into the __syscall_metadata section. As pointers are always the
natural alignment, gcc should always pack them tightly together
(otherwise initcall, extable, etc would also fail).
By having the pointers to the structures in the section, we can still
iterate the trace_events without causing unnecessary alignment problems
with other architectures, or depending on the current behaviour of
gcc that will likely change in the future just to tick us kernel developers
off a little more.
The __syscall_metadata section is also moved into the .init.data section
as it is now only needed at boot up.

Make the tracepoints more robust, making them solid enough to handle compiler
changes by not relying on anything based on compiler-specific behavior with
respect to structure alignment. Implement an approach proposed by David Miller:
use an array of const pointers to refer to the individual structures, and export
this pointer array through the linker script rather than the structures per se.
It will consume 32 extra bytes per tracepoint (24 for structure padding and 8
for the pointers), but are less likely to break due to compiler changes.
History:
commit 7e066fb8 tracepoints: add DECLARE_TRACE() and DEFINE_TRACE()
added the aligned(32) type and variable attribute to the tracepoint structures
to deal with gcc happily aligning statically defined structures on 32-byte
multiples.
One attempt was to use a 8-byte alignment for tracepoint structures by applying
both the variable and type attribute to tracepoint structures definitions and
declarations. It worked fine with gcc 4.5.1, but broke with gcc 4.4.4 and 4.4.5.
The reason is that the "aligned" attribute only specify the _minimum_ alignment
for a structure, leaving both the compiler and the linker free to align on
larger multiples. Because tracepoint.c expects the structures to be placed as an
array within each section, up-alignment cause NULL-pointer exceptions due to the
extra unexpected padding.

If reclaim after a failed charging was unsuccessful, the limits are
checked again, just in case they settled by means of other tasks.
This is all fine as long as every charge is of size PAGE_SIZE, because in
that case, being below the limit means having at least PAGE_SIZE bytes
available.
But with transparent huge pages, we may end up in an endless loop where
charging and reclaim fail, but we keep going because the limits are not
yet exceeded, although not allowing for a huge page.
Fix this up by explicitely checking for enough room, not just whether we
are within limits.
