This patch moves items of the s3c24xx support into
a new plat-s3c directory for items that use the
s3c24xx support but are not directly s3c24xx
compatible, such as the s3c2400 and s3c6400.

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Currently, CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 both enables boot-time checking of
the cmpxchg64b feature and enables compilation of the set_64bit() family.
Since the option is dependent on PAE, and since KVM depends on set_64bit(),
this effectively disables KVM on i386 nopae.
Simplify by removing the config option altogether: the boot check is made
dependent on CONFIG_X86_PAE directly, and the set_64bit() family is exposed
without constraints. It is up to users to check for the feature flag (KVM
does not as virtualiation extensions imply its existence).

When a CONFIG_USER_NS=n and a user tries to unshare some namespace other
than the user namespace, the dummy copy_user_ns returns NULL rather than
the old_ns.
This value then gets assigned to task->nsproxy->user_ns, so that a
subsequent setuid, which uses task->nsproxy->user_ns, causes a NULL
pointer deref.
Fix this by returning old_ns.

Provides a way for NMI reported errors on x86 to notify the EDAC
subsystem pending ECC errors by writing to a software state variable.
Here's the reworked patch. I added an EDAC stub to the kernel so we can
have variables that are in the kernel even if EDAC is a module. I also
implemented the idea of using the chip driver to select error detection
mode via module parameter and eliminate the kernel compile option.
Please review/test. Thx!
Also, I only made changes to some of the chipset drivers since I am
unfamiliar with the other ones. We can add similar changes as we go.

lguest is a simple hypervisor for Linux on Linux. Unlike kvm it doesn't need
VT/SVM hardware. Unlike Xen it's simply "modprobe and go". Unlike both, it's
5000 lines and self-contained.
Performance is ok, but not great (-30% on kernel compile). But given its
hackability, I expect this to improve, along with the paravirt_ops code which
it supplies a complete example for. There's also a 64-bit version being
worked on and other craziness.
But most of all, lguest is awesome fun! Too much of the kernel is a big ball
of hair. lguest is simple enough to dive into and hack, plus has some warts
which scream "fork me!".
This patch:
This is the code and headers required to make an i386 kernel an lguest guest.

We measure acquisition and contention bouncing.
This is done by recording a cpu stamp in each lock instance.
Contention bouncing requires the cpu stamp to be set on acquisition. Hence we
move __acquired into the generic path.
__acquired is then used to measure acquisition bouncing by comparing the
current cpu with the old stamp before replacing it.
__contended is used to measure contention bouncing (only useful for preemptable
locks)

Introduce the core lock statistics code.
Lock statistics provides lock wait-time and hold-time (as well as the count
of corresponding contention and acquisitions events). Also, the first few
call-sites that encounter contention are tracked.
Lock wait-time is the time spent waiting on the lock. This provides insight
into the locking scheme, that is, a heavily contended lock is indicative of
a too coarse locking scheme.
Lock hold-time is the duration the lock was held, this provides a reference for
the wait-time numbers, so they can be put into perspective.
1)
lock
2)
... do stuff ..
unlock
3)
The time between 1 and 2 is the wait-time. The time between 2 and 3 is the
hold-time.
The lockdep held-lock tracking code is reused, because it already collects locks
into meaningful groups (classes), and because it is an existing infrastructure
for lock instrumentation.
Currently lockdep tracks lock acquisition with two hooks:
lock()
lock_acquire()
_lock()
... code protected by lock ...
unlock()
lock_release()
_unlock()
We need to extend this with two more hooks, in order to measure contention.
lock_contended() - used to measure contention events
lock_acquired() - completion of the contention
These are then placed the following way:
lock()
lock_acquire()
if (!_try_lock())
lock_contended()
_lock()
lock_acquired()
... do locked stuff ...
unlock()
lock_release()
_unlock()
(Note: the try_lock() 'trick' is used to avoid instrumenting all platform
dependent lock primitive implementations.)
It is also possible to toggle the two lockdep features at runtime using:
/proc/sys/kernel/prove_locking
/proc/sys/kernel/lock_stat
(esp. turning off the O(n^2) prove_locking functionaliy can help)

Use the lockdep infrastructure to track lock contention and other lock
statistics.
It tracks lock contention events, and the first four unique call-sites that
encountered contention.
It also measures lock wait-time and hold-time in nanoseconds. The minimum and
maximum times are tracked, as well as a total (which together with the number
of event can give the avg).
All statistics are done per lock class, per write (exclusive state) and per read
(shared state).
The statistics are collected per-cpu, so that the collection overhead is
minimized via having no global cachemisses.
This new lock statistics feature is independent of the lock dependency checking
traditionally done by lockdep; it just shares the lock tracking code. It is
also possible to enable both and runtime disabled either component - thereby
avoiding the O(n^2) lock chain walks for instance.
This patch:
raw_spinlock_t should not use lockdep (and doesn't) since lockdep itself
relies on it.

with other read-only data. The PT_NOTE also points to their location.
This paves the way for putting useful build-time information into ELF notes
that can be found easily later in a kernel memory dump.

This patch adds an interface to set/reset flags which determines each memory
segment should be dumped or not when a core file is generated.
/proc/<pid>/coredump_filter file is provided to access the flags. You can
change the flag status for a particular process by writing to or reading from
the file.
The flag status is inherited to the child process when it is created.

This patch changes mm_struct.dumpable to a pair of bit flags.
set_dumpable() converts three-value dumpable to two flags and stores it into
lower two bits of mm_struct.flags instead of mm_struct.dumpable.
get_dumpable() behaves in the opposite way.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: export set_dumpable]
