Yanmin Zhang reported that SD_PREFER_LOCAL induces an order of
magnitude increase in select_task_rq_fair() overhead while
running heavy wakeup benchmarks (tbench and vmark).
Since SD_BALANCE_WAKE is off at node level, turn SD_PREFER_LOCAL
off as well pending further investigation.

I got a boot crash when forcing cpumasks offstack on 32 bit,
because find_new_ilb() returned 3 on my UP system (nohz.cpu_mask
wasn't zeroed).
AFAICT the others need to be zeroed too: only
nohz.ilb_grp_nohz_mask is initialized before use.

This patch restores the effectiveness of LAST_BUDDY in preventing
pgsql+oltp from collapsing due to wakeup preemption. It also
switches LAST_BUDDY to exclusively do what it does best, namely
mitigate the effects of aggressive wakeup preemption, which
improves vmark throughput markedly, and restores mysql+oltp
scalability.
Since buddies are about scalability, enable them beginning at the
point where we begin expanding sched_latency, namely
sched_nr_latency. Previously, buddies were cleared aggressively,
which seriously reduced their effectiveness. Not clearing
aggressively however, produces a small drop in mysql+oltp
throughput immediately after peak, indicating that LAST_BUDDY is
actually doing some harm. This is right at the point where X on the
desktop in competition with another load wants low latency service.
Ergo, do not enable until we need to scale.
To mitigate latency induced by buddies, or by a task just missing
wakeup preemption, check latency at tick time.
Last hunk prevents buddies from stymieing BALANCE_NEWIDLE via
CACHE_HOT_BUDDY.

Yanmin reported a hackbench regression due to:
> commit de69a80be32445b0a71e8e3b757e584d7beb90f7
> Author: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>
> Date: Thu Sep 17 09:01:20 2009 +0200

> sched: Stop buddies from hogging the system
I really liked de69a80b, and it affecting hackbench shows I wasn't
crazy ;-)
So hackbench is a multi-cast, with one sender spraying multiple
receivers, who in their turn don't spray back.
This would be exactly the scenario that patch 'cures'. Previously
we would not clear the last buddy after running the next task,
allowing the sender to get back to work sooner than it otherwise
ought to have been, increasing latencies for other tasks.
Now, since those receivers don't poke back, they don't enforce the
buddy relation, which means there's nothing to re-elect the sender.
Cure this by less agressively clearing the buddy stats. Only clear
buddies when they were not chosen. It should still avoid a buddy
sticking around long after its served its time.

Yanmin reported that both tbench and hackbench were significantly
hurt by trying to keep tasks local on these domains, esp on small
cache machines.
So disable it in order to promote spreading outside of the cache
domains.

This reverts commit 9bcbdd9c58617f1301dd4f17c738bb9bc73aca70.
The real bug producing LatencyTop latencies has been fixed in:
f5dc375: sched: Update the clock of runqueue select_task_rq() selected
And the commit being reverted here triggers local timer processing
from every device IRQ. If device IRQs come in at a high frequency,
this could cause a performance regression.
The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency
as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more
often.

In try_to_wake_up(), we update the runqueue clock, but
select_task_rq() may select a different runqueue than the one we
updated, leaving the new runqueue's clock stale for a bit.
This patch cures occasional huge latencies reported by latencytop
when coming out of idle on a mostly idle NO_HZ box.

Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a
problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also
reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using
iwlagn.
It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get
checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic
timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other
wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible.
The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer
interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that:
1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less
2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because
the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up.
I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the
original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported
success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec
range.

When a vmalloc'd area is mmap'd into userspace, some kind of
co-ordination is necessary for this to work on platforms with cpu
D-caches which can have aliases.
Otherwise kernel side writes won't be seen properly in userspace
and vice versa.
If the kernel side mapping and the user side one have the same
alignment, modulo SHMLBA, this can work as long as VM_SHARED is
shared of VMA and for all current users this is true. VM_SHARED
will force SHMLBA alignment of the user side mmap on platforms with
D-cache aliasing matters.
The bulk of this patch is just making it so that a specific
alignment can be passed down into __get_vm_area_node(). All
existing callers pass in '1' which preserves existing behavior.
vmalloc_user() gives SHMLBA for the alignment.
As a side effect this should get the video media drivers and other
vmalloc_user() users into more working shape on such systems.

Update documentation of cgroups tasks and procs files
Document the cgroup.procs file.
Clarify the semantics of the cgroup.procs and tasks files. Although the
current cgroup.procs interface returns a sorted and uniqified list of
pids, potential future performance enhancements could result in those
properties being removed - explicitly document this aspect of the API.
There are no existing users of cgroup.procs, so compatibility isn't an
issue. There are users of the "tasks" file, but none that would appear to
break in the event of the sorted property being broken. The standard
"libcpuset" explicitly sorts the results of reading from the tasks file,
and "libcg" and other users don't appear to care about ordering.

Adjust the max_kernel_pages default to a quarter of totalram_pages,
instead of nr_free_buffer_pages() / 4: the KSM pages themselves come from
highmem, and even on a 16GB PAE machine, 4GB of KSM pages would only be
pinning 32MB of lowmem with their rmap_items, so no need for the more
obscure calculation (nor for its own special init function).
There is no way for the user to switch KSM on if CONFIG_SYSFS is not
enabled, so in that case default run to KSM_RUN_MERGE.
Update KSM Documentation and Kconfig to reflect the new defaults.

Increase the default and maximum PCM buffer prellocation size for ice1724's
SPDIF and independent stereo pair outputs to 256K, which is the hardware's
maximum supported size. This allows a reduction in interrupt rate and
potentially power usage when an application is not latency-critical.

MIXER to PCM type
* PLEASE NOTE - this change requires the corresponding update of
envy24control for ice1712 - kind of an ABI change.
* The "Multi Track Peak" control is read-only level meters indicator.
* The control is VERY confusing to most users since it is currently displayed
in regular mixers. E.g. alsamixer ignores its read-only status
and allows changing the levels with keys which makes no sense.

Just using the tr->buffer for the API to trace_buffer_lock_reserve
is not good enough. This is because the tr->buffer may change, and we
do not want to commit with a different buffer that we reserved from.
This patch uses a local variable to hold the buffer that was used to
reserve and commit with.
