99b7623380 proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.

We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.

But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.

->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.

rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.

Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.

So, let's nuke it.

Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

53129c5c55 ia64/pv_ops: move down __kernel_syscall_via_epc.
Move down __kernel_syscall_via_epc to the end of the page.
We want to paravirtualize only __kernel_syscall_via_epc because
it includes privileged instructions. Its paravirtualization increases
its symbols size.

On the other hand, each paravirtualized gate must have e symbols of
same value and size to native's because the page is mapped to GATE_ADDR
and GATE_ADDR + PERCPU_PAGE_SIZE and vmlinux is linked to those symbols.
Later to have the same symbol size, we pads NOPs at the end of
__kernel_syscall_via_epc. Move it after other functions to keep
symbols of other functions have same values and sizes.

Impact: cleanup, futureproof

In fact, all cpumask ops will only be valid (in general) for bit
numbers < nr_cpu_ids.  So use that instead of NR_CPUS in various
places.

This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and
nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.

19390c4d03 linker script: define __per_cpu_load on all SMP capable archs
Impact: __per_cpu_load available on all SMP capable archs

Percpu now requires three symbols to be defined - __per_cpu_load,
__per_cpu_start and __per_cpu_end.  There were three archs which
didn't have it.  Update them as follows.

* powerpc: can use generic PERCPU() macro.  Compile tested for
  powerpc32, compile/boot tested for powerpc64.

* ia64: can use generic PERCPU_VADDR() macro.  __phys_per_cpu_start is
  identical to __per_cpu_load.  Compile tested and symbol table looks
  identical after the change except for the additional __per_cpu_load.

* arm: added explicit __per_cpu_load definition.  Currently uses
  unified .init output section so can't use the generic macro.  Dunno
  whether the unified .init ouput section is required by arch
  peculiarity so I left it alone.  Please break it up and use PERCPU()
  if possible.

c0acdea214 [IA64] Remove redundant cpu_clear() in __cpu_disable path
The second call to cpu_clear() is redundant, as we've already removed
the CPU from cpu_online_map before calling migrate_platform_irqs().

66db2e6331 [IA64] Revert "prevent ia64 from invoking irq handlers on offline CPUs"
This reverts commit e7b140365b.

Commit e7b14036 removes the targetted disabled CPU from the
cpu_online_map after calls to migrate_platform_irqs and fixup_irqs.

Paul McKenney states that the reasoning behind the patch was to
prevent irq handlers from running on CPUs marked offline because:

	RCU happily ignores CPUs that don't have their bits set in
	cpu_online_map, so if there are RCU read-side critical sections
	in the irq handlers being run, RCU will ignore them.  If the
	other CPUs were running, they might sequence through the RCU
	state machine, which could result in data structures being
	yanked out from under those irq handlers, which in turn could
	result in oopses or worse.

Unfortunately, both ia64 functions above look at cpu_online_map to find
a new CPU to migrate interrupts onto. This means we can potentially
migrate an interrupt off ourself back to... ourself. Uh oh.

This causes an oops when we finally try to process pending interrupts on
the CPU we want to disable. The oops results from calling __do_IRQ with
a NULL pt_regs:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000040)

I don't like this revert because it is fragile. ia64 is getting lucky
because we seem to only ever process timer interrupts in this path, but
if we ever race with an IPI here, we definitely use RCU and have the
potential of hitting an oops that Paul describes above.

Patching ia64's timer_interrupt() to check for NULL pt_regs is
insufficient though, as we still hit the above oops.

As a short term solution, I do think that this revert is the right
answer. The revert hold up under repeated testing (24+ hour test runs)
with this setup:

	- 8-way rx6600
	- randomly toggling CPU online/offline state every 2 seconds
	- running CPU exercisers, memory hog, disk exercisers, and
	  network stressors
	- average system load around ~160

In the long term, we really need to figure out why we set pt_regs = NULL
in ia64_process_pending_intr(). If it turns out that it is unnecessary
to do so, then we could safely re-introduce e7b14036 (along with some
other logic to be smarter about migrating interrupts).

One final note: x86 also removes the disabled CPU from cpu_online_map
and then re-enables interrupts for 1ms, presumably to handle any pending
interrupts:

arch/x86/kernel/irq_32.c (and irq_64.c):
cpu_disable_common:
	[remove cpu from cpu_online_map]

	fixup_irqs():
		for_each_irq:
			[break CPU affinities]

		local_irq_enable();
		mdelay(1);
		local_irq_disable();

So they are doing implicitly what ia64 is doing explicitly.
