542d865bbe kstat: modify kstat_irqs_legacy to be variable sized
Impact: reduce memory usage.

Allocate kstat_irqs_legacy based on nr_cpu_ids to deal with this
memory usage bump when NR_CPUS bumped from 128 to 4096:

     8192   +253952    262144 +3100%  kstat_irqs_legacy(.bss)

This is only when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y.

9332fccded irq: initialize nr_irqs based on nr_cpu_ids
Impact: Reduce memory usage.

This is the second half of the changes to make the irq_desc_ptrs be
variable sized based on nr_cpu_ids.  This is done by adding a new
"max_nr_irqs" macro to irq_vectors.h (and a dummy in irqnr.h) to
return a max NR_IRQS value based on NR_CPUS or nr_cpu_ids.

This necessitated moving the define of MAX_IO_APICS to a separate
file (asm/apicnum.h) so it could be included without the baggage
of the other asm/apicdef.h declarations.

0fa0ebbf15 irq: allocate irq_desc_ptrs array based on nr_irqs
Impact: allocate irq_desc_ptrs in preparation for making it variable-sized.

This addresses this memory usage bump when NR_CPUS bumped from 128 to 4096:

    34816   +229376    264192  +658%  irq_desc_ptrs(.data.read_mostly)

The patch is split into two parts, the first simply allocates the
irq_desc_ptrs array.  Then next will deal with making it variable.
This is only when CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS=y.

0e21990ae7 SGI UV cpumask: use static temp cpumask in flush_tlb
Impact: Improve tlb flush performance for UV

Calling alloc_cpumask_var a zillion times a second does affect
performance.  Replace with static cpumask.

Note: when CONFIG_X86_UV is defined, this extra PER_CPU memory
will be optimized out for non-UV configs as is_uv_system() will
then return a constant 0.

4595f9620c x86: change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask
Impact: reduce stack usage, use new cpumask API.

This is made a little more tricky by uv_flush_tlb_others which
actually alters its argument, for an IPI to be sent to the remaining
cpus in the mask.

I solve this by allocating a cpumask_var_t for this case and falling back
to IPI should this fail.

To eliminate temporaries in the caller, all flush_tlb_others implementations
now do the this-cpu-elimination step themselves.

Note also the curious "cpus_or(f->flush_cpumask, cpumask, f->flush_cpumask)"
which has been there since pre-git and yet f->flush_cpumask is always zero
at this point.

802bf931f2 cpumask: fix bug in use cpumask_var_t in irq_desc
Impact: fix bug where new irq_desc uses old cpumask pointers which are freed.

As Yinghai pointed out, init_copy_one_irq_desc() copies the old desc to
the new desc overwriting the cpumask pointers.  Since the old_desc and
the cpumask pointers are freed, then memory corruption will occur if
these old pointers are used.

Move the allocation of these pointers to after the copy.

7f7ace0cda cpumask: update irq_desc to use cpumask_var_t
Impact: reduce memory usage, use new cpumask API.

Replace the affinity and pending_masks with cpumask_var_t's.  This adds
to the significant size reduction done with the SPARSE_IRQS changes.

The added functions (init_alloc_desc_masks & init_copy_desc_masks) are
in the include file so they can be inlined (and optimized out for the
!CONFIG_CPUMASKS_OFFSTACK case.)  [Naming chosen to be consistent with
the other init*irq functions, as well as the backwards arg declaration
of "from, to" instead of the more common "to, from" standard.]

Includes a slight change to the declaration of struct irq_desc to embed
the pending_mask within ifdef(CONFIG_SMP) to be consistent with other
references, and some small changes to Xen.

Tested: sparse/non-sparse/cpumask_offstack/non-cpumask_offstack/nonuma/nosmp on x86_64

The 'rb_first()', 'rb_last()', 'rb_next()' and 'rb_prev()' calls
take a pointer to an RB node or RB root. They do not change the
pointed objects, so add a 'const' qualifier in order to make life

Indeed, if I have my own constant pointer &const struct my_type *p,
and I call 'rb_next(&p->rb)', I get a GCC warning:

and, on HP laptops, via a specific ACPI API (the only one currently

c4be0c1dc4 filesystem freeze: add error handling of write_super_lockfs/unlockfs
Currently, ext3 in mainline Linux doesn't have the freeze feature which
suspends write requests.  So, we cannot take a backup which keeps the
filesystem's consistency with the storage device's features (snapshot and
replication) while it is mounted.

In many case, a commercial filesystem (e.g.  VxFS) has the freeze feature
and it would be used to get the consistent backup.

If Linux's standard filesystem ext3 has the freeze feature, we can do it
without a commercial filesystem.

So I have implemented the ioctls of the freeze feature.
I think we can take the consistent backup with the following steps.
1. Freeze the filesystem with the freeze ioctl.
2. Separate the replication volume or create the snapshot
   with the storage device's feature.
3. Unfreeze the filesystem with the unfreeze ioctl.
4. Take the backup from the separated replication volume
   or the snapshot.

This patch:

VFS:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they can return an error.
Rename write_super_lockfs and unlockfs of the super block operation
freeze_fs and unfreeze_fs to avoid a confusion.

ext3, ext4, xfs, gfs2, jfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that write_super_lockfs returns an error if needed,
and unlockfs always returns 0.

reiserfs:
Changed the type of write_super_lockfs and unlockfs from "void"
to "int" so that they always return 0 (success) to keep a current behavior.

Kernels that don't support ELF coredumps at all surely can't be supporting

Kconfig questions about that flavor.

6230582320 firewire: core: fix sleep in atomic context due to driver core change
Due to commit 2831fe6f9c, "driver core:
create a private portion of struct device", device_initialize() can no
longer be called from atomic contexts.

We now defer it until after config ROM probing.  This requires changes
to the bus manager code because this may use a device before it was
probed.
