Merge reason: merge latest tracing fixes to avoid conflicts in
kernel/trace/trace_events_filter.c with upcoming change
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

This patch changes filter_check_discard() to make use of the new
ring_buffer_discard_commit() function and modifies the current users to
call the old commit function in the non-discard case.
It also introduces a version of filter_check_discard() that uses the
global trace buffer (filter_current_check_discard()) for those cases.
v2 changes:

Add a new config option, CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING that gets selected
when CONFIG_TRACING is selected and adds everything needed by the stuff
in trace_export - basically all the event tracing support needed by e.g.
bprint, minus the actual events, which are only included if
CONFIG_EVENT_TRACER is selected.
So CONFIG_EVENT_TRACER can be used to turn on or off the generated events
(what I think of as the 'event tracer'), while CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING turns
on or off the base event tracing support used by both the event tracer and
the other things such as bprint that can't be configured out.

The ring_buffer_discard_commit makes better usage of the ring_buffer
when an event has been discarded. It tries to remove it completely if
possible.
This patch converts the trace event filtering to use
ring_buffer_discard_commit instead of the ring_buffer_event_discard.

The ring_buffer_discard_commit is similar to ring_buffer_event_discard
but it can only be done on an event that has yet to be commited.
Unpredictable results can happen otherwise.
The main difference between ring_buffer_discard_commit and
ring_buffer_event_discard is that ring_buffer_discard_commit will try
to free the data in the ring buffer if nothing has addded data
after the reserved event. If something did, then it acts almost the
same as ring_buffer_event_discard followed by a
ring_buffer_unlock_commit.
Note, either ring_buffer_commit_discard and ring_buffer_unlock_commit
can be called on an event, not both.
This commit also exports both discard functions to be usable by
GPL modules.

Frederic Weisbecker suggested that the trace_special event shouldn't be
filterable; this patch adds a TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT_NOFILTER event macro
that allows an event format to be exported without having a filter
attached, and removes filtering from the trace_special event.

This patch adds run-time field descriptions to all the event formats
exported using TRACE_EVENT_FORMAT. It also hooks up all the tracers
that use them (i.e. the tracers in the 'ftrace subsystem') so they can
also have their output filtered by the event-filtering mechanism.
When I was testing this, there were a couple of things that fooled me
into thinking the filters weren't working, when actually they were -
I'll mention them here so others don't make the same mistakes (and file
bug reports. ;-)
One is that some of the tracers trace multiple events e.g. the
sched_switch tracer uses the context_switch and wakeup events, and if
you don't set filters on all of the traced events, the unfiltered output
from the events without filters on them can make it look like the
filtering as a whole isn't working properly, when actually it is doing
what it was asked to do - it just wasn't asked to do the right thing.
The other is that for the really high-volume tracers e.g. the function
tracer, the volume of filtered events can be so high that it pushes the
unfiltered events out of the ring buffer before they can be read so e.g.
cat'ing the trace file repeatedly shows either no output, or once in
awhile some output but that isn't there the next time you read the
trace, which isn't what you normally expect when reading the trace file.
If you read from the trace_pipe file though, you can catch them before
they disappear.
Changes from v1:
As suggested by Frederic Weisbecker:
- get rid of externs in functions
- added unlikely() to filter_check_discard()

There is a race between resume from hibernation and the asynchronous
scanning of SCSI devices and to prevent it from happening we need to
call scsi_complete_async_scans() during resume from hibernation.
In addition, if the resume from hibernation is userland-driven, it's
better to wait for all device probes in the kernel to complete before
attempting to open the resume device.

When POSIX capabilities were introduced during the 2.1 Linux
cycle, the fs mask, which represents the capabilities which having
fsuid==0 is supposed to grant, did not include CAP_MKNOD and
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE. However, before capabilities the privilege
to call these did in fact depend upon fsuid==0.
This patch introduces those capabilities into the fsmask,
restoring the old behavior.
See the thread starting at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/11/157 for
reference.
Note that if this fix is deemed valid, then earlier kernel versions (2.4
and 2.2) ought to be fixed too.

Since the first argument to I2C_BOARD_INFO() must be a string constant,
there is no need to parenthesise it, and adding parentheses results in
an invalid initialiser for char[]. gcc obviously accepts this syntax as
an extension, but sparse complains, e.g.:
drivers/net/sfc/boards.c:173:2: warning: array initialized from parenthesized string constant
Therefore, remove the parentheses.

Impact: broaden lockdep checks
Lockdep is disabled after any kernel taints. This might be convenient
to ignore bad locking issues which sources come from outside the kernel
tree. Nevertheless, it might be a frustrating experience for the
staging developers or those who experience a warning but are focused
on another things that require lockdep.
The v2 of this patch simply don't disable anymore lockdep in case
of TAINT_CRAP and TAINT_WARN events.

Impact: provide useful missing info for developers
Kernel taint can occur in several situations such as warnings,
load of prorietary or staging modules, bad page, etc...
But when such taint happens, a developer might still be working on
the kernel, expecting that lockdep is still enabled. But a taint
disables lockdep without ever warning about it.
Such a kernel behaviour doesn't really help for kernel development.
This patch adds this missing warning.
Since the taint is done most of the time after the main message that
explain the real source issue, it seems safe to warn about it inside
add_taint() so that it appears at last, without hurting the main
information.
v2: Use a generic helper to disable lockdep instead of an
open coded xchg().

TRACE_EVENT is a more generic way to define tracepoints.
Doing so adds these new capabilities to this tracepoint:
- zero-copy and per-cpu splice() tracing
- binary tracing without printf overhead
- structured logging records exposed under /debug/tracing/events
- trace events embedded in function tracer output and other plugins
- user-defined, per tracepoint filter expressions

tracepoint part
Impact: refactor code for future changes
Current kmemtrace.h is used both as header file of kmemtrace and kmem's
tracepoints definition.
Tracepoints' definition file may be used by other code, and should only have
definition of tracepoint.
We can separate include/trace/kmemtrace.h into 2 files:
include/linux/kmemtrace.h: header file for kmemtrace
include/trace/kmem.h: definition of kmem tracepoints

pat_disable cannot be __cpuinit anymore because it's called from pat_init
and the callchain looks like this:
pat_disable [cpuinit] <- pat_init <- generic_set_all <-
ipi_handler <- set_mtrr <- (other non init/cpuinit functions)
WARNING: arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.text+0x449e): Section mismatch in reference
from the function pat_init() to the function .cpuinit.text:pat_disable()
The function pat_init() references
the function __cpuinit pat_disable().
This is often because pat_init lacks a __cpuinit
annotation or the annotation of pat_disable is wrong.
Non CONFIG_X86_PAT version of pat_disable is static inline, so this version
can be static too (and there are no callers outside of this file).

Impact: fix section mismatch
In arch/x86/kernel/mpparse.c, smp_reserve_bootmem() has been called
and also refers to a function which is in .init section. Thus causes
the first warning. And check_irq_src() also requires an __init,
because it refers to an .init section.

Before patch:
# echo 'parent_pid == 0x10' > events/sched/sched_process_fork/filter
# cat sched/sched_process_fork/filter
parent_pid == 0
After patch:
# cat sched/sched_process_fork/filter
parent_pid == 16
Also check the input more strictly.

Try this, and you'll see NULL pointer dereference bug:
# echo -n 'parent_comm ==' > sched/sched_process_fork/filter
Because we passed NULL ptr to simple_strtoull().

Make sure messages from user space are NIL-terminated strings,
otherwise we could dump random memory while reading filter file.
Try this:
# echo 'parent_comm ==' > events/sched/sched_process_fork/filter
# cat events/sched/sched_process_fork/filter
parent_comm == �

This reverts commit 5d38258ec026921a7b266f4047ebeaa75db358e5, since the
underlying problem got fixed properly in the previous commit ("async:
Fix module loading async-work regression").

Several drivers use asynchronous work to do device discovery, and we
synchronize with them in the compiled-in case before we actually try to
mount root filesystems etc.
However, when compiled as modules, that synchronization is missing - the
module loading completes, but the driver hasn't actually finished
probing for devices, and that means that any user mode that expects to
use the devices after the 'insmod' is now potentially broken.
We already saw one case of a similar issue in the ACPI battery code,
where the kernel itself expected the module to be all done, and unmapped
the init memory - but the async device discovery was still running.
That got hacked around by just removing the "__init" (see commit
5d38258ec026921a7b266f4047ebeaa75db358e5 "ACPI battery: fix async boot
oops"), but the real fix is to just make the module loading wait for all
async work to be completed.
It will slow down module loading, but since common devices should be
built in anyway, and since the bug is really annoying and hard to handle
from user space (and caused several S3 resume regressions), the simple
fix to wait is the right one.
This fixes at least
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13063
but probably a few other bugzilla entries too (12936, for example), and
is confirmed to fix Rafael's storage driver breakage after resume bug
report (no bugzilla entry).
We should also be able to now revert that ACPI battery fix.

When gen_initramfs_list is used to generate make dependencies, it
includes symbolic links, for which make tracks the link target. Any
change to that target will cause an initramfs rebuild, even if the
symlink points to something outside of the initramfs directory.
If the target happens to be /tmp, the rebuild occurs for each kernel
build, since gen_initramfs_list uses mktemp...
Proposed way to fix it is to omit symbolic links from generated
dependencies, but this has a small drawback: changing perm/owner on a
symlink will go unnoticed.
