7f184275aa lib, Make gen_pool memory allocator lockless
This version of the gen_pool memory allocator supports lockless
operation.

This makes it safe to use in NMI handlers and other special
unblockable contexts that could otherwise deadlock on locks.  This is
implemented by using atomic operations and retries on any conflicts.
The disadvantage is that there may be livelocks in extreme cases.  For
better scalability, one gen_pool allocator can be used for each CPU.

The lockless operation only works if there is enough memory available.
If new memory is added to the pool a lock has to be still taken.  So
any user relying on locklessness has to ensure that sufficient memory
is preallocated.

The basic atomic operation of this allocator is cmpxchg on long.  On
architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the
allocator can NOT be used in NMI handler.  So code uses the allocator
in NMI handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

f49f23abf3 lib, Add lock-less NULL terminated single list
Cmpxchg is used to implement adding new entry to the list, deleting
all entries from the list, deleting first entry of the list and some
other operations.

Because this is a single list, so the tail can not be accessed in O(1).

If there are multiple producers and multiple consumers, llist_add can
be used in producers and llist_del_all can be used in consumers.  They
can work simultaneously without lock.  But llist_del_first can not be
used here.  Because llist_del_first depends on list->first->next does
not changed if list->first is not changed during its operation, but
llist_del_first, llist_add, llist_add (or llist_del_all, llist_add,
llist_add) sequence in another consumer may violate that.

If there are multiple producers and one consumer, llist_add can be
used in producers and llist_del_all or llist_del_first can be used in
the consumer.

This can be summarized as follow:

           |   add    | del_first |  del_all
 add       |    -     |     -     |     -
 del_first |          |     L     |     L
 del_all   |          |           |     -

Where "-" stands for no lock is needed, while "L" stands for lock is
needed.

The list entries deleted via llist_del_all can be traversed with
traversing function such as llist_for_each etc.  But the list entries
can not be traversed safely before deleted from the list.  The order
of deleted entries is from the newest to the oldest added one.  If you
want to traverse from the oldest to the newest, you must reverse the
order by yourself before traversing.

The basic atomic operation of this list is cmpxchg on long.  On
architectures that don't have NMI-safe cmpxchg implementation, the
list can NOT be used in NMI handler.  So code uses the list in NMI
handler should depend on CONFIG_ARCH_HAVE_NMI_SAFE_CMPXCHG.

778d3b0ff0 cpusets: randomize node rotor used in cpuset_mem_spread_node()
[ This patch has already been accepted as commit 0ac0c0d0f8 but later
  reverted (commit 35926ff5fb) because it itroduced arch specific
  __node_random which was defined only for x86 code so it broke other
  archs.  This is a followup without any arch specific code.  Other than
  that there are no functional changes.]

Some workloads that create a large number of small files tend to assign
too many pages to node 0 (multi-node systems).  Part of the reason is
that the rotor (in cpuset_mem_spread_node()) used to assign nodes starts
at node 0 for newly created tasks.

This patch changes the rotor to be initialized to a random node number
of the cpuset.

a685e08987 Delay struct net freeing while there's a sysfs instance refering to it
* new refcount in struct net, controlling actual freeing of the memory
	* new method in kobj_ns_type_operations (->drop_ns())
	* ->current_ns() semantics change - it's supposed to be followed by
corresponding ->drop_ns().  For struct net in case of CONFIG_NET_NS it bumps
the new refcount; net_drop_ns() decrements it and calls net_free() if the
last reference has been dropped.  Method renamed to ->grab_current_ns().
	* old net_free() callers call net_drop_ns() instead.
	* sysfs_exit_ns() is gone, along with a large part of callchain
leading to it; now that the references stored in ->ns[...] stay valid we
do not need to hunt them down and replace them with NULL.  That fixes
problems in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_readdir(), along with getting rid
of sb->s_instances abuse.

	Note that struct net *shutdown* logics has not changed - net_cleanup()
is called exactly when it used to be called.  The only thing postponed by
having a sysfs instance refering to that struct net is actual freeing of
memory occupied by struct net.

e8f7c70f44 sched: Make sleeping inside spinlock detection working in !CONFIG_PREEMPT
Select CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT when we enable the sleeping inside
spinlock detection, so that the preempt offset gets correctly
incremented/decremented from preempt_disable()/preempt_enable().

This makes the preempt count eventually working in !CONFIG_PREEMPT
when that debug option is set and thus fixes the detection of explicit
preemption disabled sections under such config. Code that sleeps
in explicitly preempt disabled section can be finally spotted
in non-preemptible kernels.

5f98ecdbce swiotlb: Export swioltb_nr_tbl and utilize it as appropiate.
By default the io_tlb_nslabs is set to zero, and gets set to
whatever value is passed in via swiotlb_init_with_tbl function.
The default value passed in is 64MB. However, if the user provides
the 'swiotlb=<nslabs>' the default value is ignored and
the value provided by the user is used... Except when the SWIOTLB
is used under Xen - there the default value of 64MB is used and
the Xen-SWIOTLB has no mechanism to get the 'io_tlb_nslabs' filled
out by setup_io_tlb_npages functions. This patch provides a function
for the Xen-SWIOTLB to call to see if the io_tlb_nslabs is set
and if so use that value.

determine cosine and sine for a given angle. Feedback received from
John Linville suggested that these kind of functions should be made

b43 driver also has a cordic angle calculation implemented.

19de85ef57 bitops: add #ifndef for each of find bitops
The style that we normally use in asm-generic is to test the macro itself
for existence, so in asm-generic, do:

	#ifndef find_next_zero_bit_le
	extern unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long offset);
	#endif

and in the architectures, write

	static inline unsigned long find_next_zero_bit_le(const void *addr,
		unsigned long size, unsigned long offset)
	#define find_next_zero_bit_le find_next_zero_bit_le

This adds the #ifndef for each of the find bitops in the generic header
and source files.

704f15ddb5 flex_array: avoid divisions when accessing elements
On most architectures division is an expensive operation and accessing an
element currently requires four of them.  This performance penalty
effectively precludes flex arrays from being used on any kind of fast
path.  However, two of these divisions can be handled at creation time and
the others can be replaced by a reciprocal divide, completely avoiding
real divisions on access.

ba9f207c9f rcu: Fix unpaired rcu_irq_enter() from locking selftests
HARDIRQ_ENTER() maps to irq_enter() which calls rcu_irq_enter().
But HARDIRQ_EXIT() maps to __irq_exit() which doesn't call
rcu_irq_exit().

So for every locking selftest that simulates hardirq disabled,
we create an imbalance in the rcu extended quiescent state
internal state.

As a result, after the first missing rcu_irq_exit(), subsequent
irqs won't exit dyntick-idle mode after leaving the interrupt
handler.  This means that RCU won't see the affected CPU as being
in an extended quiescent state, resulting in long grace-period
delays (as in grace periods extending for hours).

To fix this, just use __irq_enter() to simulate the hardirq
context. This is sufficient for the locking selftests as we
don't need to exit any extended quiescent state or perform
any check that irqs normally do when they wake up from idle.

As a side effect, this patch makes it possible to restore
"rcu: Decrease memory-barrier usage based on semi-formal proof",
which eventually helped finding this bug.

5ca43f6c3b lib: consolidate DEBUG_STACK_USAGE option
Most arches define CONFIG_DEBUG_STACK_USAGE exactly the same way.  Move it
to lib/Kconfig.debug so each arch doesn't have to define it.  This
obviously makes the option generic, but that's fine because the config is
already used in generic code.

It's not obvious to me that sysrq-P actually does anything caution by
keeping the most inclusive wording.
