Go through the iomem resource tree to check if any of the ioremap()
requests span more than any slot in the iomem resource tree and do
a WARN_ON() if we hit this check.
This will raise a red-flag, if some driver is mapping more than what
is needed. And hopefully identify possible corruptions much earlier.

Change PPM_SCALE_INV_SHIFT so that it doesn't throw away any input bits
(19 is the amount of the factor 2 in PPM_SCALE), the output frequency
can then be calculated back to its input value, as the inverse divide
produce a slightly larger value, which is then correctly rounded by the
final shift.

This is the second resubmission of the posix timer rework patch, posted
a few days ago.
This includes the changes from the previous resubmittion, which addressed
Oleg Nesterov's comments, removing the RCU stuff from the patch and
un-inlining the thread_group_cputime() function for SMP.
In addition, per Ingo Molnar it simplifies the UP code, consolidating much
of it with the SMP version and depending on lower-level SMP/UP handling to
take care of the differences.
It also cleans up some UP compile errors, moves the scheduler stats-related
macros into kernel/sched_stats.h, cleans up a merge error in
kernel/fork.c and has a few other minor fixes and cleanups as suggested
by Oleg and Ingo. Thanks for the review, guys.

This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias
associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining
the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this
to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It
is just an arbitrary text label on the network device.
There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be
read/written either via netlink or sysfs.
This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more
generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good
place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.

As discovered by Timo Teräs, the currently xfrm_state_walk scheme
is racy because if a second dump finishes before the first, we
may free xfrm states that the first dump would walk over later.
This patch fixes this by storing the dumps in a list in order
to calculate the correct completion counter which cures this
problem.
I've expanded netlink_cb in order to accomodate the extra state
related to this. It shouldn't be a big deal since netlink_cb
is kmalloced for each dump and we're just increasing it by 4 or
8 bytes.

The idea is to add this to printk after the severity:
printk(KERN_ERR FW_BUG "This is not our fault, BIOS developer: fix it by
simply add ...\n");
If a Firmware issue should be hidden, because it is
work-arounded, but you still want to see something popping up e.g.
for info only:
printk(KERN_INFO FW_INFO "This is done stupid, we can handle it,
but it should better be avoided in future\n");
or on the Linuxfirmwarekit to tell vendors that they did something
stupid or wrong without bothering the user:
printk(KERN_INFO FW_BUG "This is done stupid, we can handle it,
but it should better be avoided in future\n");
Some use cases:
- If a user sees a [Firmware Bug] message in the kernel
he should first update the BIOS before wasting time with
debugging and submiting on old firmware code to mailing
lists.
- The linuxfirmwarekit (http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org)
tries to detect firmware bugs. It currently is doing that
in userspace which results in:
- Huge test scripts that could be a one liner in the kernel
- A lot of BIOS bugs are already absorbed by the kernel
What do we need such a stupid linuxfirmwarekit for?
- Vendors: Can test their BIOSes for Linux compatibility.
There will be the time when vendors realize that the test utils
on Linux are more strict and using them increases the qualitity
and stability of their products.
- Vendors: Can easily fix up their BIOSes and be more Linux
compatible by:
dmesg |grep "Firmware Bug"
and send the result to their BIOS developer colleagues who should
know what the messages are about and how to fix them, without
the need of studying kernel code.
- Distributions: can do a first automated HW/BIOS checks.
This can then be done without the need of asking kernel developers
who need to dig down the code and explain the details.
Certification can/will just be rejected until
dmesg |grep "Firmware Bug" is empty.
- Thus this can be used as an instrument to enforce cleaner BIOS
code. Currently every stupid Windows ACPI bug is
re-implemented in Linux which is a rather unfortunate situation.
We already have the power to avoid this in e.g. memory
or cpu hot-plug ACPI implementations, because Linux certification
is a must for most vendors in the server area.
Working towards being able to do that in the laptop area
(vendors are starting to look at Linux here also and will use this tool)
is the goal. At least provide them a tool to make it as easy
for this guys (e.g. not needing to browse kernel code) as possible.
- The ordinary Linux user: can go into the next shop, boots the
firmwarekit on his most preferred machines. He chooses one without
BIOS bugs. Unsupported HW is ok, he likes to try out latest projects
which might support them or likes to dig on it on his own, but he
hates to workaround broken BIOSes like hell.
I double checked with the firmwarekit.
There they have:
So the mapping generally is (also depending on how likely the BIOS is
to blame, this could sometimes be difficult):
FW_INFO = INFO
FW_WARN = WARN
FW_BUG = FAIL
For more info about the linuxfirmwarekit and why this is needed
can be found here:
http://www.linuxfirmwarekit.org
While severity matches with the firmwarekit, it might be tricky
to hide messages from the user.
E.g. we recently found out that on HP BIOSes negative temperatures
are returned, which seem to indicate that the thermal zone is
invalid.
We can work around that gracefully by ignoring the thermal zone
and we do not want to bother the ordinary user with a frightening
message: Firmware Bug: thermal management absolutely broken
but want to hide it from the user.
But in the linuxfirmwarekit this should be shown as a real
show stopper (the temperatures could really be wrong,
broken thermal management is one of the worst things
that can happen and the BIOS guys of the machine must
implement this properly).
It is intended to do that (hide it from the user with
KERN_INFO msg, but still print it as a BIOS bug) by:
printk(KERN_INFO FW_BUG "Negativ temperature values detected.
Try to workarounded, BIOS must get fixed\n");
Hope that works out..., no idea how to better hide it
as printk is the only way to easily provide this functionality.

The difference seems to come from different preemption agressiveness,
which affects the cache footprint of the workload and its effective
cache trashing.
Aggresively preempt a task if its avg overlap is very small, this should
avoid the task going to sleep and find it still running when we schedule

This patch adds a UUID to the GFS2 sb structure. This field is not
actually referenced from kernel space at all, but is added for
completeness and due to the userland tools which get their on-disk
structure information from the gfs2_ondisk.h header file.
Since we have to be backwards compatible, we will assume that any GFS2
sb for which the UUID is all 0 does not have a UUID as such.
We should then be (after some userland changes) able to support the -U
mount option. This addresses Fedora bugzilla #242689

Main benefit in this is that we can then freely point
the retransmit_skb_hint to anywhere we want to because
there's no longer need to know what would be the count
changes involve, and since this is really used only as a
terminator, unnecessary work is one time walk at most,
and if some retransmissions are necessary after that
point later on, the walk is not full waste of time
anyway.
Since retransmit_high must be kept valid, all lost
markers must ensure that.
Now I also have learned how those "holes" in the
rexmittable skbs can appear, mtu probe does them. So
I removed the misleading comment as well.
