This removes the totally bogus bus ID:s with two-digit hex numerals
either referring to the base address of corresponding versatile
machine or just some arbitrarily chosen digit in favor of just using
the device identifier as a string. I kept the "dev:" prefix for
DevChips, "fpga:" prefix for FPGA:s and "issp:" prefix for the
other processor bus, just in case someone likes them.

ARM kprobes use an illegal instruction to trigger kprobes. In the
current implementation, there's a race between the unregistration of a
kprobe and the illegal instruction exception handler if they run at the
same time on different cores.
When reading the value of the undefined instruction, the exception
handler might get the original legal instruction as just patched
concurrently by arch_disarm_kprobe(). When this happen the kprobe
handler won't run, and thus the exception handler will oops because it
believe it just hit an undefined instruction in kernel space.
The following patch synchronizes the code patching in the kprobes
unregistration using stop_machine and thus avoids the above race.

other.

NFS may free the server structure without ever having used the
bdi, so we either need to flag the bdi as being uninitialized or
initialize it up front. This does the latter.
This fixes a crash with mounting more than one NFS file system,
should people ever need that kind of obscure NFS functionality.

Improve the example code to be at least useable, as in not causing
harm (as shown below). Code can still be improved further, but this
adds some basic safeguards.
1. hpfall *MUST* mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE); itself!
Since the Program sits and waits most of the time it becomes very likely
swapped out. If it gets woken up when the laptop drops from the table
while it is swapped out it actually triggers harddrive activity!
2. Daemonize hpfall using 'daemon(0,0)' (quick and dirty).
3. Give hpfall realtime priority.
Should give a chance that it has less latency when woken up.
