o Dominik Klein reported a system hang issue while doing some blkio
throttling testing.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/24/173
o Some tracing revealed that CFQ was not dispatching any more jobs as
queue unplug was not happening. And queue unplug was not happening
because unplug work was not being called as there was one throttling
work on same cpu which as not finished yet. And throttling work had not
finished as it was tyring to dispatch a bio to CFQ but all the request
descriptors were consume to it was put to sleep.
o So basically it is a cyclic dependecny between CFQ unplug work and
throtl dispatch work. Tejun suggested that use separate workqueue for
such cases.
o This patch uses a separate workqueue for throttle related work and
does not rely on kblockd workqueue anymore.

Several ACPI drivers fail to build if CONFIG_NET is unset, because
they refer to things depending on CONFIG_THERMAL that in turn depends
on CONFIG_NET. However, CONFIG_THERMAL doesn't really need to depend
on CONFIG_NET, because the only part of it requiring CONFIG_NET is
the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c.
Put the netlink interface in thermal_sys.c under #ifdef CONFIG_NET
and remove the dependency of CONFIG_THERMAL on CONFIG_NET from
drivers/thermal/Kconfig.

In Falcon we can configure the fill levels of the RX data FIFO which
trigger the generation of pause frames (if enabled), and we have
module parameters for this.
Siena does not allow the levels to be configured (or, if it does, this
is done by the MC firmware and is not configurable by drivers).
So far as I can tell, the module parameters are not used by our
internal scripts and have not been documented (with the exception of
the short parameter descriptions). Therefore, remove them and always
initialise Falcon with the default values.

netlink_dump() may failed, but nobody handle its error.
It generates output data, when a previous portion has been returned to
user space. This mechanism works when all data isn't go in skb. If we
enter in netlink_recvmsg() and skb is absent in the recv queue, the
netlink_dump() will not been executed. So if netlink_dump() is failed
one time, the new data never appear and the reader will sleep forever.
netlink_dump() is called from two places:
1. from netlink_sendmsg->...->netlink_dump_start().
In this place we can report error directly and it will be returned
by sendmsg().
2. from netlink_recvmsg
There we can't report error directly, because we have a portion of
valid output data and call netlink_dump() for prepare the next portion.
If netlink_dump() is failed, the socket will be mark as error and the
next recvmsg will be failed.
