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.

It is not currently possible to instruct pktgen to use one selected tx queue.
When Robert added multiqueue support in commit 45b270f8, he added
an interval (queue_map_min, queue_map_max), and his code doesnt take
into account the case of min = max, to select one tx queue exactly.
I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants
to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender.
This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one.
Also updates Documentation to reflect Robert changes.

There is no point in implementing a detect callback for the LTC4215
and LTC4245, as these devices can't be detected. It was there solely
to handle "force" module parameters to instantiate devices, but now
we have a better sysfs interface that can do the same.
So we can get rid of the ugly module parameters and the detect
callbacks. This shrinks the binary module sizes by 36% and 46%,
respectively.

Commit c953094 ("early_printk: Allow more than one early console")
introduced a regression in the parsing of the earlyprintk= kernel
arguments.
If you specify "earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200" as a kernel
argument, the "serial,ttyS" should be parsed as a single argument
and not as "serial" and then "ttyS".
Also update the documentation to reflect you can specify the ttyS
directly without the "serial" argument.

The /proc/fs/ext4/<dev>/mb_history was maintained manually, and had a
number of problems: it required a largish amount of memory to be
allocated for each ext4 filesystem, and the s_mb_history_lock
introduced a CPU contention problem.
By ripping out the mb_history code and replacing it with ftrace
tracepoints, and we get more functionality: timestamps, event
filtering, the ability to correlate mballoc history with other ext4
tracepoints, etc.

Introduce core pipe limiting sysctl.
Since we can dump cores to pipe, rather than directly to the filesystem,
we create a condition in which a user can create a very high load on the
system simply by running bad applications.
If the pipe reader specified in core_pattern is poorly written, we can
have lots of ourstandig resources and processes in the system.
This sysctl introduces an ability to limit that resource consumption.
core_pipe_limit defines how many in-flight dumps may be run in parallel,
dumps beyond this value are skipped and a note is made in the kernel log.
A special value of 0 in core_pipe_limit denotes unlimited core dumps may
be handled (this is the default value).

Soft limits is a new feature for the memory resource controller, something
similar has existed in the group scheduler in the form of shares. The CPU
controllers interpretation of shares is very different though.
Soft limits are the most useful feature to have for environments where the
administrator wants to overcommit the system, such that only on memory
contention do the limits become active. The current soft limits
implementation provides a soft_limit_in_bytes interface for the memory
controller and not for memory+swap controller. The implementation
maintains an RB-Tree of groups that exceed their soft limit and starts
reclaiming from the group that exceeds this limit by the maximum amount.
This patch:
Add documentation for soft limits

Change the memory cgroup to remove the overhead associated with accounting
all pages in the root cgroup. As a side-effect, we can no longer set a
memory hard limit in the root cgroup.
A new flag to track whether the page has been accounted or not has been
added as well. Flags are now set atomically for page_cgroup,
pcg_default_flags is now obsolete and removed.

Alter the ss->can_attach and ss->attach functions to be able to deal with
a whole threadgroup at a time, for use in cgroup_attach_proc. (This is a
pre-patch to cgroup-procs-writable.patch.)
Currently, new mode of the attach function can only tell the subsystem
about the old cgroup of the threadgroup leader. No subsystem currently
needs that information for each thread that's being moved, but if one were
to be added (for example, one that counts tasks within a group) this bit
would need to be reworked a bit to tell the subsystem the right
information.

To simplify referring to cgroup hierarchies in mount statements, and to
allow disambiguation in the presence of empty hierarchies and
multiply-bindable subsystems this patch adds support for naming a new
cgroup hierarchy via the "name=" mount option
A pre-existing hierarchy may be specified by either name or by subsystems;
a hierarchy's name cannot be changed by a remount operation.
Example usage:
# To create a hierarchy called "foo" containing the "cpu" subsystem
mount -t cgroup -oname=foo,cpu cgroup /mnt/cgroup1
# To mount the "foo" hierarchy on a second location
mount -t cgroup -oname=foo cgroup /mnt/cgroup2
