When collecting slub stats for particular workloads, it's necessary to
collect each statistic for all caches before the job is even started
because the counters are usually greater than zero just from boot and
initialization.
This allows a statistic to be cleared on each cpu by writing '0' to its
sysfs file. This creates a baseline for statistics of interest before
the workload is started.
Setting a statistic to a particular value is not supported, so all values
written to these files other than '0' returns -EINVAL.

I'm skipping -rc2 because the -rc1 Makefile mistakenly said -rc2, so in
order to avoid confusion, I'm jumping from -rc1 to -rc3. That way, when

to handle "force" module parameters to instantiate devices, but now

A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c,
tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away
during the tty hangup. See for example
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255
and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the
ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a
deadlock with vhangup_work.
However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by
- using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits
for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any
random outstanding pending work.
This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't
care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers.
- realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any
hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves.
so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and
then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we
never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold
the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.

This patch fixes the m32r SMP kernel after 2.6.27.
A part of the following patch breaks m32r SMP operation.
> m32r: convert to generic helpers for IPI function calls
> commit 7b7426c8a6
In the above patch, a CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI was newly introduced,
but the its IPI vector number was wrong in the patch code.
The m32r SMP kernel hanged-up during boot operation, because
the CPU_BOOT_IPI was called instead of CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI
(CPU_BOOT_IPI had no side effect at that time because the 2nd
core had already been started up),
as a result, csd_unlock() was not called, then a dead lock
occurred in csd_lock_wait() after the detection of Compact Flash
memory as IDE generic disk.

I was recently lucky enough to get a 64-CPU system. The processors
actually have T-states, so my kernel log ends up with 64 lines like:
ACPI: Processor [CPU0] (supports xx throttling states)
This is pretty useless clutter because
- this info is already available after boot from
/proc/acpi/processor/CPUnn/throttling
- there's also an ACPI_DEBUG_PRINT() in processor_throttling.c that
gives the same info on boot for anyone who *really* cares.
So just delete the code that prints the throttling states in
processor_core.c.

Currently, on ARMv6 and ARMv7, if an application tries to execute
code (or garbage) on non-executable page it hangs. It caused by
incorrect prefetch abort handling. Now every prefetch abort
processes as a translation fault.
To fix this we have to analyze instruction fault status register
to figure out reason why we've got the abort and process it
accordingly.
To make IFSR different from DFSR we set bit 31 which is reserved in
both IFSR and DFSR.
This patch also tries to protect from future hangs on unexpected
exceptions. An application will be killed if unexpected exception
type was received.
