DEBUG_SHIRQ generates spurious interrupts, triggering handlers such as
mconsole_interrupt() or line_interrupt(). They expect data to be available to
be read from their sockets/pipes, but in the case of spurious interrupts, the
host didn't actually send anything, so UML hangs in read() and friends.
Setting those fd's as O_NONBLOCK makes DEBUG_SHIRQ-enabled UML kernels boot
and run correctly.

It is theoretically possible for a request to finish and be freed between
writing it to the I/O thread and updating the sector count. In this case, the

To avoid this, I delay the update until processing the next sg segment, when
the request pointer is known to be good.

This adds preliminary NUMA support to SLOB, primarily aimed at systems with
small nodes (tested all the way down to a 128kB SRAM block), whether
asymmetric or otherwise.
We follow the same conventions as SLAB/SLUB, preferring current node
placement for new pages, or with explicit placement, if a node has been
specified. Presently on UP NUMA this has the side-effect of preferring
node#0 allocations (since numa_node_id() == 0, though this could be
reworked if we could hand off a pfn to determine node placement), so
single-CPU NUMA systems will want to place smaller nodes further out in
terms of node id. Once a page has been bound to a node (via explicit node
id typing), we only do block allocations from partial free pages that have
a matching node id in the page flags.
The current implementation does have some scalability problems, in that all
partial free pages are tracked in the global freelist (with contention due
to the single spinlock). However, these are things that are being reworked
for SMP scalability first, while things like per-node freelists can easily
be built on top of this sort of functionality once it's been added.

This converts the default system init memory policy to use a dynamically
created node map instead of defaulting to all online nodes. Nodes of a
certain size (>= 16MB) are judged to be suitable for interleave, and are added
to the map. If all nodes are smaller in size, the largest one is
automatically selected.
Without this, tiny nodes find themselves out of memory before we even make it
to userspace. Systems with large nodes will notice no change.
Only the system init policy is effected by this change, the regular
MPOL_DEFAULT policy is still switched to later on in the boot process as
normal.

Improve slob by turning the freelist into a list of pages using struct page
fields, then each page has a singly linked freelist of slob blocks via a
pointer in the struct page.
- The first benefit is that the slob freelists can be indexed by a smaller
type (2 bytes, if the PAGE_SIZE is reasonable).
- Next is that freeing is much quicker because it does not have to traverse
the entire freelist. Allocation can be slightly faster too, because we can
skip almost-full freelist pages completely.
- Slob pages are then freed immediately when they become empty, rather than
having a periodic timer try to free them. This gives efficiency and memory
consumption improvement.
Then, we don't encode seperate size and next fields into each slob block,
rather we use the sign bit to distinguish between "size" or "next". Then
size 1 blocks contain a "next" offset, and others contain the "size" in
the first unit and "next" in the second unit.
- This allows minimum slob allocation alignment to go from 8 bytes to 2
bytes on 32-bit and 12 bytes to 2 bytes on 64-bit. In practice, it is
best to align them to word size, however some architectures (eg. cris)
could gain space savings from turning off this extra alignment.
Then, make kmalloc use its own slob_block at the front of the allocation
in order to encode allocation size, rather than rely on not overwriting
slob's existing header block.
- This reduces kmalloc allocation overhead similarly to alignment reductions.
- Decouples kmalloc layer from the slob allocator.
Then, add a page flag specific to slob pages.
- This means kfree of a page aligned slob block doesn't have to traverse
the bigblock list.
I would get benchmarks, but my test box's network doesn't come up with
slob before this patch. I think something is timing out. Anyway, things
are faster after the patch.
Code size goes up about 1K, however dynamic memory usage _should_ be
lower even on relatively small memory systems.
Future todo item is to restore the cyclic free list search, rather than
to always begin at the start.
