The purpose of this patch is to improve the remote mount path lookup
support for distributed filesystems such as the NFSv4 client.
When given a mount command of the form "mount server:/foo/bar /mnt", the
NFSv4 client is required to look up the filehandle for "server:/", and
then look up each component of the remote mount path "foo/bar" in order
to find the directory that is actually going to be mounted on /mnt.
Following that remote mount path may involve following symlinks,
crossing server-side mount points and even following referrals to
filesystem volumes on other servers.
Since the standard VFS path lookup code already supports walking paths
that contain all these features (using in-kernel automounts for
following referrals) we would like to be able to reuse that rather than
duplicate the full path traversal functionality in the NFSv4 client code.
This patch therefore defines a VFS helper function create_mnt_ns(), that
sets up a temporary filesystem namespace and attaches a root filesystem to
it. It exports the create_mnt_ns() and put_mnt_ns() function for use by
filesystem modules.

SLAB uses get/put_online_cpus() which use a mutex which is itself only
initialized when cpu_hotplug_init() is called. Currently we hang suring
boot in SLAB due to doing that too late.
Reported by James Bottomley and Sachin Sant (and possibly others).
Debugged by Benjamin Herrenschmidt.
This just removes the dynamic initialization of the data structures, and
replaces it with a static one, avoiding this dependency entirely, and
removing one unnecessary special initcall.

This information allows userspace to implement a hybrid policy where
it can store the rfkill soft-blocked state in platform non-volatile
storage if available, and if not then file-based storage can be used.
Some users prefer platform non-volatile storage because of the behaviour
when dual-booting multiple versions of Linux, or if the rfkill setting
is changed in the BIOS setting screens, or if the BIOS responds to
wireless-toggle hotkeys itself before the relevant platform driver has
been loaded.

The setting of the "persistent" flag is also made more explicit using
a new rfkill_init_sw_state() function, instead of special-casing
rfkill_set_sw_state() when it is called before registration.
Suspend is a bit of a corner case so we try to get away without adding
another hack to rfkill-input - it's going to be removed soon.
If the state does change over suspend, users will simply have to prod
rfkill-input twice in order to toggle the state.
Userspace policy agents will be able to implement a more consistent user
experience. For example, they can avoid the above problem if they
toggle devices individually. Then there would be no "global state"
to get out of sync.
Currently there are only two rfkill drivers with persistent soft-blocked
state. thinkpad-acpi already checks the software state on resume.
eeepc-laptop will require modification.

For video4linux we sometimes need to probe for a single i2c address.
Normally you would do it like this:
static const unsigned short addrs[] = {
addr, I2C_CLIENT_END
};
client = i2c_new_probed_device(adapter, &info, addrs);
This is a bit awkward and I came up with this macro:
#define V4L2_I2C_ADDRS(addr, addrs...) \
((const unsigned short []){ addr, ## addrs, I2C_CLIENT_END })
This can construct a list of one or more i2c addresses on the fly. But
this is something that really belongs in i2c.h, renamed to I2C_ADDRS.
With this macro we can just do:
client = i2c_new_probed_device(adapter, &info, I2C_ADDRS(addr));
Note that this can also be used to initialize an array:
static const unsigned short addrs[] = I2C_ADDRS(0x2a, 0x2c);
Whether you want to is another matter, but it works. This functionality is
also available in the oldest supported gcc (3.2).

Surround i2c function declarations with ifdefs, so that they aren't
advertised when i2c-core isn't actually built. That way, drivers using
these functions unconditionally will result in an immediate build
failure, rather than a late linking failure which is harder to figure
out.

Add a sysfs interface to instantiate and delete I2C devices. This is
primarily a replacement of the force_* module parameters implemented
by some i2c drivers. These module parameters were implemented
internally by the I2C_CLIENT_INSMOD* macros, which don't scale well.
This can also be used when developing a driver on a self-soldered
board which doesn't yet have proper I2C device declaration at the
platform level, and presumably for various debugging situations.

The task migrations counter was causing rare and hard to decypher
memory corruptions under load. After a day of debugging and bisection
we found that the problem was introduced with:
3f731ca: perf_counter: Fix cpu migration counter
Turning them off fixes the crashes. Incidentally, the whole
perf_counter_task_migration() logic can be done simpler as well,
by injecting a proper sw-counter event.
This cleanup also fixed the crashes. The precise failure mode is
not completely clear yet, but we are clearly not unhappy about
having a fix ;-)

Before exposing upstream tools to a callchain-samples ABI, tidy it
up to make it more extensible in the future:
Use markers in the IP chain to denote context, use (u64)-1..-4095 range
for these context markers because we use them for ERR_PTR(), so these
addresses are unlikely to be mapped.

If the iucv message limit for a communication path is exceeded,
sendmsg() returns -EAGAIN instead of -EPIPE.
The calling application can then handle this error situtation,
e.g. to try again after waiting some time.
For blocking sockets, sendmsg() waits up to the socket timeout
before returning -EAGAIN. For the new wait condition, a macro
has been introduced and the iucv_sock_wait_state() has been
refactored to this macro.

Follow-up to "block: enable by default support for large devices
and files on 32-bit archs".
Rename CONFIG_LBD to CONFIG_LBDAF to:
- allow update of existing [def]configs for "default y" change
- reflect that it is used also for large files support nowadays

This switches AGP to use an array of pages for tracking the
pages allocated to the GART. This should enable GEM on PAE to work
a lot better as we can pass highmem pages to the PAT code and it will
do the right thing with them.

In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.
An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.
This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.
There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.
This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.
This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.
Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

so this moves it out of slab/slub and uses it with the page allocator
