Presently non-legacy IRQs have their irq_desc allocated with
kzalloc_node(). This assumes that all callers of irq_to_desc_node_alloc()
will be sufficiently late in the boot process that kmalloc is available.
While porting sparseirq support to sh this blew up immediately, as at the
time that we register the CPU's interrupt vector map only bootmem is
available. Check slab_is_available() to work out which path to use.

To support devices with physical block sizes bigger than 512 bytes we
need to ensure proper alignment. This patch adds support for exposing
I/O topology characteristics as devices are stacked.
logical_block_size is the smallest unit the device can address.
physical_block_size indicates the smallest I/O the device can write
without incurring a read-modify-write penalty.
The io_min parameter is the smallest preferred I/O size reported by
the device. In many cases this is the same as the physical block
size. However, the io_min parameter can be scaled up when stacking
(RAID5 chunk size > physical block size).
The io_opt characteristic indicates the optimal I/O size reported by
the device. This is usually the stripe width for arrays.
The alignment_offset parameter indicates the number of bytes the start
of the device/partition is offset from the device's natural alignment.
Partition tools and MD/DM utilities can use this to pad their offsets
so filesystems start on proper boundaries.

tripped up SDVO, because the control bus switch is only in effect until
the next STOP after a START. By doing our own algo, we can wrap each i2c

Remove ACPI 3 E820 extended memory attributes support. At least one
vendor actively set all the flags to zero, but left ECX on return at
24. This bug may be present in other BIOSes.
The breakage functionally means the ACPI 3 flags are probably
completely useless, and that no OS any time soon is going to rely on
their existence. Therefore, drop support completely. We may want to
revisit this question in the future, if we find ourselves actually
needing the flags.
This reverts all or part of the following checkins:

However, retain the part from the latter commit that copies e820 into

When monitoring a process and its descendants with a set of inherited
counters, we can often get the situation in a context switch where
both the old (outgoing) and new (incoming) process have the same set
of counters, and their values are ultimately going to be added together.
In that situation it doesn't matter which set of counters are used to
count the activity for the new process, so there is really no need to
go through the process of reading the hardware counters and updating
the old task's counters and then setting up the PMU for the new task.
This optimizes the context switch in this situation. Instead of
scheduling out the perf_counter_context for the old task and
scheduling in the new context, we simply transfer the old context
to the new task and keep using it without interruption. The new
context gets transferred to the old task. This means that both
tasks still have a valid perf_counter_context, so no special case
is introduced when the old task gets scheduled in again, either on
this CPU or another CPU.
The equivalence of contexts is detected by keeping a pointer in
each cloned context pointing to the context it was cloned from.
To cope with the situation where a context is changed by adding
or removing counters after it has been cloned, we also keep a
generation number on each context which is incremented every time
a context is changed. When a context is cloned we take a copy
of the parent's generation number, and two cloned contexts are
equivalent only if they have the same parent and the same
generation number. In order that the parent context pointer
remains valid (and is not reused), we increment the parent
context's reference count for each context cloned from it.
Since we don't have individual fds for the counters in a cloned
context, the only thing that can make two clones of a given parent
different after they have been cloned is enabling or disabling all
counters with prctl. To account for this, we keep a count of the
number of enabled counters in each context. Two contexts must have
the same number of enabled counters to be considered equivalent.
Here are some measurements of the context switch time as measured with
the lat_ctx benchmark from lmbench, comparing the times obtained with
and without this patch series:
-----Unmodified----- With this patch series
Counters: none 2 HW 4H+4S none 2 HW 4H+4S
2 processes:
Average 3.44 6.45 11.24 3.12 3.39 3.60
St dev 0.04 0.04 0.13 0.05 0.17 0.19
8 processes:
Average 6.45 8.79 14.00 5.57 6.23 7.57
St dev 1.27 1.04 0.88 1.42 1.46 1.42
32 processes:
Average 5.56 8.43 13.78 5.28 5.55 7.15
St dev 0.41 0.47 0.53 0.54 0.57 0.81
The numbers are the mean and standard deviation of 20 runs of
lat_ctx. The "none" columns are lat_ctx run directly without any
counters. The "2 HW" columns are with lat_ctx run under perfstat,
counting cycles and instructions. The "4H+4S" columns are lat_ctx run
under perfstat with 4 hardware counters and 4 software counters
(cycles, instructions, cache references, cache misses, task
clock, context switch, cpu migrations, and page faults).

This replaces the struct perf_counter_context in the task_struct with
a pointer to a dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct. The
main reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a
perf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU
switching in a later patch.
This has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller,
we save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached
get a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the
inclusion of <linux/perf_counter.h> in sched.h, meaning that we don't
end up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes.
The perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed
when the last reference is dropped. A context can have references
from its task and the counters on its task. Counters can outlive the
task so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its
task has exited.
Contexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or
otherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task.
In the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct
locklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we
raced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task.
This also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct. The
task pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a
context from one task to another. Anything that needed to know which
task a counter was attached to was already using counter->ctx->task.
The __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c
so that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes
the refcount, but is otherwise unchanged.
We were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from
__perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from
__perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter's fd gets closed.
This adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn't do anything if
the counter has already been removed from the lists.
Since perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn't do anything if the task doesn't
have a context, and leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL, this adds code to
__perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx->task_ctx if necessary, i.e. in
the case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and
thus creates a context for itself.
This also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a
similar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled
using prctl; that also leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL.
