Impact: decrease hangs risks with the graph tracer on slow systems
Since the function graph tracer can spend too much time on timer
interrupts, it's better now to use the more lightweight local
clock. Anyway, the function graph traces are more reliable on a
per cpu trace.

The latency tracers (irqsoff, preemptoff, preemptirqsoff, and wakeup)
are pretty useless with the default output format. This patch makes them
automatically enable the latency format when they are selected. They
also record the state of the latency option, and if it was not enabled
when selected, they disable it on reset.

Impact: clean up
The trace and latency_trace function pointers are identical for
every tracer but the function tracer. The differences in the function
tracer are trivial (latency output puts paranthesis around parent).
This patch removes the latency_trace pointer and all prints will
now just use the trace output function pointer.

With the removal of the latency_trace file, we lost the ability
to see some of the finer details in a trace. Like the state of
interrupts enabled, the preempt count, need resched, and if we
are in an interrupt handler, softirq handler or not.
This patch simply creates an option to bring back the old format.
This also removes the warning about an unused variable that held
the latency_trace file operations.

Impact: fix trace read to conform to standards
Andrew Morton, Theodore Tso and H. Peter Anvin brought to my attention
that a userspace read should not return -EFAULT if it succeeded in
copying anything. It should only return -EFAULT if it failed to copy
at all.
This patch modifies the check of copy_from_user and updates the return
code appropriately.
I also used H. Peter Anvin's short cut rule to just test ret == count.

If a partial ring_buffer_page_read happens, then some of the
incremental timestamps may be lost. This patch writes the
recent timestamp into the page that is passed back to the caller.
A partial ring_buffer_page_read is where the full page would not
be written back to the user, and instead, just part of the page
is copied to the user. A full page would be a page swap with the
ring buffer and the timestamps would be correct.

Impact: fix to ftrace_dump output corruption
The commit: b04cc6b1f6
tracing/core: introduce per cpu tracing files
added a new field to the iterator called cpu_file. This was a handle
to differentiate between the per cpu trace output files and the
all cpu "trace" file. The all cpu "trace" file required setting this
to TRACE_PIPE_ALL_CPU.
The problem is that the ftrace_dump sets up its own iterator but was
not updated to handle this change. The result was only CPU 0 printing
out on crash and a lot of "<0>"'s also being printed.

Impact: fix math-emu related crash while using GDB/ptrace
init_fpu() calls finit to initialize a task's xstate, while finit always
works on the current task. If we use PTRACE_GETFPREGS on another
process and both processes did not already use floating point, we get
a null pointer exception in finit.
This patch creates a new function finit_task that takes a task_struct
parameter. finit becomes a wrapper that simply calls finit_task with
current. On the plus side this avoids many calls to get_current which
would each resolve to an inline assembler mov instruction.
An empty finit_task has been added to i387.h to avoid linker errors in
case the compiler still emits the call in init_fpu when
CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is not defined.
The declaration of finit in i387.h has been removed as the remaining
code using this function gets its prototype from fpu_proto.h.

The only difference there is that for machines that have

->zone_start_pfn is zero whereas highstart_pfn is non-zero).
The field is left zeroed because of the !size test in

add_highpages_with_active_regions() handles empty ranges just
fine.

DMI tables are loaded by EFI, so the dmi calls must happen after

Impact: dont leave holes in read buffer page
The ring_buffer_read_page swaps a given page with the reader page
of the ring buffer, if certain conditions are set:
1) requested length is big enough to hold entire page data
2) a writer is not currently on the page
3) the page is not partially consumed.
Instead of swapping with the supplied page. It copies the data to
the supplied page instead. But currently the data is copied in the
same offset as the source page. This causes a hole at the start
of the reader page. This complicates the use of this function.
Instead, it should copy the data at the beginning of the function
and update the index fields accordingly.
Other small clean ups are also done in this patch.
