The only change here is that a readlock is taken while the property list
is being traversed on Sparc where it was not taken previously.
Also, Sparc uses strcasecmp to compare property names while PowerPC
uses strcmp.

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.
This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

a) switch by loff_t == __cmpdi2 use. Replaced with a couple
of obvious ifs; update of ->f_pos in the first one makes sure that we
do the right thing in all cases.
b) block_signals() and unblock_signals() are globals on UML.
Renamed coda ones; in principle UML probably ought to do rename as
well, but that's another story.

Now that ide-floppy supports SG_IO we can add support for SCSI ioctls
(except deprecated SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND and legacy CDROM_SEND_PACKET
ones - we can add them later iff really needed).
While at it remove handling of CDROMEJECT and CDROMCLOSETRAY ioctls from
generic_ide_ioctl():
- This prevents ide-{disk,tape,scsi} device drivers from obtaining
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC type requests which are currently unsupported by
these drivers and which are potentially harmful (as reported by Andrew).
- There is no functionality loss since aforementioned ioctls will now be
handled by idefloppy_ioctl()->scsi_cmd_ioctl() (for devices using
ide-floppy driver) and by idecd_ioctl->cdrom_ioctl()->scsi_cmd_ioctl()
(for devices using ide-cd driver).

The driver used to depend on BIOS settings for deciding whether it is OK
to use DMA. However it seems that BIOS doesn't always handle all cases
correctly so just let IDE core to decide about this. It should be a safe
thing to do now, after the driver went through heavy bugfixing.

Various old IDE drivers go mapping ROM devices for no apparent reason and
without using the ROM mapping API we now have. They don't actually use
the ROM they map and the new libata drivers are happy without it being
mapped so rather than port them lets just junk it for the next -rc1.

Currently, CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 both enables boot-time checking of
the cmpxchg64b feature and enables compilation of the set_64bit() family.
Since the option is dependent on PAE, and since KVM depends on set_64bit(),
this effectively disables KVM on i386 nopae.
Simplify by removing the config option altogether: the boot check is made
dependent on CONFIG_X86_PAE directly, and the set_64bit() family is exposed
without constraints. It is up to users to check for the feature flag (KVM
does not as virtualiation extensions imply its existence).

When a CONFIG_USER_NS=n and a user tries to unshare some namespace other
than the user namespace, the dummy copy_user_ns returns NULL rather than
the old_ns.
This value then gets assigned to task->nsproxy->user_ns, so that a
subsequent setuid, which uses task->nsproxy->user_ns, causes a NULL
pointer deref.
Fix this by returning old_ns.

I suspect Christoph tested his code only in the NUMA configuration, for
the combination of SLAB+non-NUMA the zero-sized kmalloc's would not work.
Of course, this would only trigger in configurations where those zero-
sized allocations happen (not very common), so that may explain why it
wasn't more widely noticed.
Seen by by Andi Kleen under qemu, and there seems to be a report by
Michael Tsirkin on it too.

In the presence of SMT, newly idle balance was never happening for
multi-core and SMP domains (even when both the logical siblings are
idle).
If thread 0 is already idle and when thread 1 is about to go to idle,
newly idle load balance always think that one of the threads is not idle
and skips doing the newly idle load balance for multi-core and SMP
domains.
This is because of the idle_cpu() macro, which checks if the current
process on a cpu is an idle process. But this is not the case for the
thread doing the load_balance_newidle().
Fix this by using runqueue's nr_running field instead of idle_cpu(). And
also skip the logic of 'only one idle cpu in the group will be doing
load balancing' during newly idle case.
