a0c1e9073e futex: runtime enable pi and robust functionality
Not all architectures implement futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic().  The default
implementation returns -ENOSYS, which is currently not handled inside of the
futex guts.

Futex PI calls and robust list exits with a held futex result in an endless
loop in the futex code on architectures which have no support.

Fixing up every place where futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is called would
add a fair amount of extra if/else constructs to the already complex code.  It
is also not possible to disable the robust feature before user space tries to
register robust lists.

Compile time disabling is not a good idea either, as there are already
architectures with runtime detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic support.

Detect the functionality at runtime instead by calling
cmpxchg_futex_value_locked() with a NULL pointer from the futex initialization
code.  This is guaranteed to fail, but the call of
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() happens with pagefaults disabled.

On architectures, which use the asm-generic implementation or have a runtime
CPU feature detection, a -ENOSYS return value disables the PI/robust features.

On architectures with a working implementation the call returns -EFAULT and
the PI/robust features are enabled.

The relevant syscalls return -ENOSYS and the robust list exit code is blocked,
when the detection fails.

45254b4fb2 efs: move headers out of include/linux/
Merge include/linux/efs_fs{_i,_dir}.h into fs/efs/efs.h.  efs_vh.h remains
there because this is the IRIX volume header and shouldn't really be
handled by efs but by the partitioning code.  efs_sb.h remains there for
now because it's exported to userspace.  Of course this wrong and aboot
should have a copy of it's own, but I'll leave that to a separate patch to
avoid any contention.

  I've run allmodconfig builds on a bunch of target, FWIW (essentially the
  same patch).  Note that these includes are recent addition caused by added
  inline function that had since then become a define.  So while I agree with
  your comments in general, in _this_ case it's pretty safe.

  The commit that had done it is 3062fc67da
  ("memcontrol: move mm_cgroup to header file") and the switch to #define
  is in commit 60c12b1202 ("memcontrol: add
  vm_match_cgroup()") (BTW, that probably warranted mentioning in the
  changelog of the latter).

3a2d5b7001 PM: Introduce PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE callback state
During the last step of hibernation in the "platform" mode (with the
help of ACPI) we use the suspend code, including the devices'
->suspend() methods, to prepare the system for entering the ACPI S4
system sleep state.

But at least for some devices the operations performed by the
->suspend() callback in that case must be different from its operations
during regular suspend.

For this reason, introduce the new PM event type PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE and
pass it to the device drivers' ->suspend() methods during the last phase
of hibernation, so that they can distinguish this case and handle it as
appropriate.  Modify the drivers that handle PM_EVENT_SUSPEND in a
special way and need to handle PM_EVENT_HIBERNATE in the same way.

These changes are necessary to fix a hibernation regression related
to the i915 driver (ref. http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/22/488).

dde2020754 libata: eliminate the home grown dma padding in favour of
that provided by the block layer

ATA requires that all DMA transfers begin and end on word boundaries.
Because of this, a large amount of machinery grew up in ide to adjust
scatterlists on this basis.  However, as of 2.5, the block layer has a
dma_alignment variable which ensures both the beginning and length of a
DMA transfer are aligned on the dma_alignment boundary.  Although the
block layer does adjust the beginning of the transfer to ensure this
happens, it doesn't actually adjust the length, it merely makes sure
that space is allocated for transfers beyond the declared length.  The
upshot of this is that scatterlists may be padded to any size between
the actual length and the length adjusted to the dma_alignment safely
knowing that memory is allocated in this region.

Right at the moment, SCSI takes the default dma_aligment which is on a
512 byte boundary.  Note that this aligment only applies to transfers
coming in from user space.  However, since all kernel allocations are
automatically aligned on a minimum of 32 byte boundaries, it is safe to
adjust them in this manner as well.

tj: * Adjusting sg after padding is done in block layer.  Make libata
      set queue alignment correctly for ATAPI devices and drop broken
      sg mangling from ata_sg_setup().
    * Use request->raw_data_len for ATAPI transfer chunk size.
    * Killed qc->raw_nbytes.
    * Separated out killing qc->n_iter.

6b00769fe1 block: add request->raw_data_len
With padding and draining moved into it, block layer now may extend
requests as directed by queue parameters, so now a request has two
sizes - the original request size and the extended size which matches
the size of area pointed to by bios and later by sgs.  The latter size
is what lower layers are primarily interested in when allocating,
filling up DMA tables and setting up the controller.

Both padding and draining extend the data area to accomodate
controller characteristics.  As any controller which speaks SCSI can
handle underflows, feeding larger data area is safe.

So, this patch makes the primary data length field, request->data_len,
indicate the size of full data area and add a separate length field,
request->raw_data_len, for the unmodified request size.  The latter is
used to report to higher layer (userland) and where the original
request size should be fed to the controller or device.

4ac9137858 Embed a struct path into struct nameidata instead of nd->{dentry,mnt}
This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.

Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
  <dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
  struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

without patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5321639  858418  715768 6895825  6938d1 vmlinux

with patch series:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
5320026  858418  715768 6894212  693284 vmlinux

This patch:

Switch from nd->{dentry,mnt} to nd->path.{dentry,mnt} everywhere.

331dc558fa slub: Support 4k kmallocs again to compensate for page allocator slowness
Currently we hand off PAGE_SIZEd kmallocs to the page allocator in the
mistaken belief that the page allocator can handle these allocations
effectively. However, measurements indicate a minimum slowdown by the
factor of 8 (and that is only SMP, NUMA is much worse) vs the slub fastpath
which causes regressions in tbench.

Increase the number of kmalloc caches by one so that we again handle 4k
kmallocs directly from slub. 4k page buffering for the page allocator
will be performed by slub like done by slab.

At some point the page allocator fastpath should be fixed. A lot of the kernel
would benefit from a faster ability to allocate a single page. If that is
done then the 4k allocs may again be forwarded to the page allocator and this
patch could be reverted.
