dde2020754 libata: eliminate the home grown dma padding in favour of
that provided by the block layer

ATA requires that all DMA transfers begin and end on word boundaries.
Because of this, a large amount of machinery grew up in ide to adjust
scatterlists on this basis.  However, as of 2.5, the block layer has a
dma_alignment variable which ensures both the beginning and length of a
DMA transfer are aligned on the dma_alignment boundary.  Although the
block layer does adjust the beginning of the transfer to ensure this
happens, it doesn't actually adjust the length, it merely makes sure
that space is allocated for transfers beyond the declared length.  The
upshot of this is that scatterlists may be padded to any size between
the actual length and the length adjusted to the dma_alignment safely
knowing that memory is allocated in this region.

Right at the moment, SCSI takes the default dma_aligment which is on a
512 byte boundary.  Note that this aligment only applies to transfers
coming in from user space.  However, since all kernel allocations are
automatically aligned on a minimum of 32 byte boundaries, it is safe to
adjust them in this manner as well.

tj: * Adjusting sg after padding is done in block layer.  Make libata
      set queue alignment correctly for ATAPI devices and drop broken
      sg mangling from ata_sg_setup().
    * Use request->raw_data_len for ATAPI transfer chunk size.
    * Killed qc->raw_nbytes.
    * Separated out killing qc->n_iter.

2fb98e8414 block: implement request_queue->dma_drain_needed
Draining shouldn't be done for commands where overflow may indicate
data integrity issues.  Add dma_drain_needed callback to
request_queue.  Drain buffer is appened iff this function returns
non-zero.

6b00769fe1 block: add request->raw_data_len
With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend
requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two
sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches
the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs.  The latter size
is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating,
filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller.

Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate
controller characteristics.  As any controller which speaks SCSI can
handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe.

So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len,
indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field,
request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size.  The latter is
used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original
request size should be fed to the controller or device.

ffc4e75957 cfq-iosched: add hlist for browsing parallel to the radix tree
It's cumbersome to browse a radix tree from start to finish, especially
since we modify keys when a process exits. So add a hlist for the single
purpose of browsing over all known cfq_io_contexts, used for exit,
io prio change, etc.

This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9948

86b6c7a7f7 fs/block_dev.c: remove #if 0'ed code
Commit b2e895dbd8 #if 0'ed this code stating:

<--  snip  -->

    [PATCH] revert blockdev direct io back to 2.6.19 version

    Andrew Vasquez is reporting as-iosched oopses and a 65% throughput
    slowdown due to the recent special-casing of direct-io against
    blockdevs.  We don't know why either of these things are occurring.

    The patch minimally reverts us back to the 2.6.19 code for a 2.6.20
    release.

<--  snip  -->

It has since been dead code, and unless someone wants to revive it now
it's time to remove it.

This patch also makes bio_release_pages() static again and removes the
ki_bio_count member from struct kiocb, reverting changes that had been
done for this dead code.

4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

with patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

331dc558fa slub: Support 4k kmallocs again to compensate for page allocator slowness
Currently we hand off PAGE_SIZEd kmallocs to the page allocator in the
mistaken belief that the page allocator can handle these allocations
effectively. However, measurements indicate a minimum slowdown by the
factor of 8 (and that is only SMP, NUMA is much worse) vs the slub fastpath
which causes regressions in tbench.

Increase the number of kmalloc caches by one so that we again handle 4k
kmallocs directly from slub. 4k page buffering for the page allocator
will be performed by slub like done by slab.

At some point the page allocator fastpath should be fixed. A lot of the kernel
would benefit from a faster ability to allocate a single page. If that is
done then the 4k allocs may again be forwarded to the page allocator and this
patch could be reverted.

b7a49f0d4c slub: Determine gfpflags once and not every time a slab is allocated
Currently we determine the gfp flags to pass to the page allocator
each time a slab is being allocated.

Determine the bits to be set at the time the slab is created. Store
in a new allocflags field and add the flags in allocate_slab().

eada35efcb slub: kmalloc page allocator pass-through cleanup
This adds a proper function for kmalloc page allocator pass-through. While it
simplifies any code that does slab tracing code a lot, I think it's a
worthwhile cleanup in itself.

5a7780e725 hrtimer: check relative timeouts for overflow
Various user space callers ask for relative timeouts. While we fixed
that overflow issue in hrtimer_start(), the sites which convert
relative user space values to absolute timeouts themself were uncovered.

Instead of putting overflow checks into each place add a function
which does the sanity checking and convert all affected callers to use
it.

Thanks to Frans Pop, who reported the problem and tested the fixes.

4fcb2fcd4d ACPI, cpuidle: Clarify C-state description in sysfs
Add a new sysfs entry under cpuidle states. desc - can be used by driver to
communicate to userspace any specific information about the state.
This helps in identifying the exact hardware C-states behind the ACPI C-state
definition.

Idea is to export this through powertop, which will help to map the C-state
reported by powertop to actual hardware C-state.
