Impact: fix build errors
Since the SPARSE IRQS changes redefined how the kstat irqs are
organized, arch's must use the new accessor function:
kstat_incr_irqs_this_cpu(irq, DESC);
If CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQS is set, then DESC is a pointer to the
irq_desc which has a pointer to the kstat_irqs. If not, then
the .irqs field of struct kernel_stat is used instead.

This change resulted in sending the invalidate tlb vector to the

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.

Calling alloc_cpumask_var a zillion times a second does affect

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.

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.

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.

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.
