a0cd9ca2b9 genirq: Namespace cleanup
The irq namespace has become quite convoluted. My bad.  Clean it up
and deprecate the old functions. All new functions follow the scheme:

irq number based:
    irq_set/get/xxx/_xxx(unsigned int irq, ...)

irq_data based:
	 irq_data_set/get/xxx/_xxx(struct irq_data *d, ....)

irq_desc based:
	 irq_desc_get_xxx(struct irq_desc *desc)

3c18d4de86 Expand CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST to several other list operations
When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption
errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra
debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries.

However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding
the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that.

So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries,
we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them..

6e57b1d6a8 RTC: Revert UIE emulation removal
Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.

This patch reverts the following commits:
042620a018 - Remove UIE emulation
1daeddd596 - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration
b5cc8ca1c9 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation

The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following
patch before it will work.

fcdba07ee3 tty,vcs removing con_buf/conf_buf_mtx
seems there's no longer need for using con_buf/conf_buf_mtx
as vcs_read/vcs_write buffer for user's data.

The do_con_write function, that was the other user of this,
is currently using its own kmalloc-ed buffer.

Not sure when this got changed, as I was able to find this code
in 2.6.9, but it's already gone as far as current git history
goes - 2.6.12-rc2.

AFAICS there's a behaviour change with the current change.
The lseek is not completely mutually exclusive with the
vcs_read/vcs_write - the file->f_pos might get updated
via lseek callback during the vcs_read/vcs_write processing.

I tried to find out if the prefered behaviour is to keep
this in sync within read/write/lseek functions, but I did
not find any pattern on different places.

I guess if user end up calling write/lseek from different
threads she should know what she's doing. If needed we
could use dedicated fd mutex/buffer.

e5d1367f17 perf: Add cgroup support
This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on
container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only.

The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid
argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to
the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the
cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the
file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is
activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument
to the syscall.

For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming
cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup:

struct perf_event_attr attr;
int cgroup_fd, fd;

cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY);
fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP);
close(cgroup_fd);

changes. The only changes are:

* introduction of oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample(), and
* removal of section attributes of oprofile_timer_init/_exit().

To setup hwsampler for oprofile we need to modify start()/stop()
callbacks and additional hwsampler control files in oprofilefs. We do
not reinitialize the timer or hwsampler mode by restarting calling
init/exit() anymore, instead hwsampler_running is used to switch the
mode directly in oprofile_hwsampler_start/_stop(). For locking reasons
there is also hwsampler_file that reflects the value in oprofilefs.

The overall diffstat of the oprofile s390 hwsampler implemenation
shows the low impact to non-architectural code:

997dbb4967 oprofile, s390: Enhance OProfile to support System zs hardware sampling feature
OProfile is enhanced to export all files for controlling System z's
hardware sampling, and to invoke hwsampler exported functions to
initialize and use System z's hardware sampling.

The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports
following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup
succeeded:

A new directory for hardware sampling based files

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/

The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files
to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler

to modify the actual sampling rate

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval

to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages)

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks

The following files are read only and show
the possible minimum sampling rate

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval

the possible maximum sampling rate

 /dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval

The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it
can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel
oops.

Applied with following changes:
* whitespace changes in Makefile and timer_int.c

54ebbe7ba5 oprofile: Introduce new oprofile sample add function (oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample)
This patch introduces a new oprofile sample add function
(oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample) that can also take task_struct as an
argument, which is used by the hwsampler kernel module when copying
hardware samples to OProfile buffers.

Applied with following changes:
* removed #include <linux/module.h>
* whitespace changes
* removed conditional compilation (CONFIG_HAVE_HWSAMPLER)
* modified order of functions
* fix missing function definition in header file
