printk recursion detection prepends message to printk_buf and offsets
printk_buf when actual message is printed but it forgets to trim buffer
length accordingly. This can result in overrun in extreme cases. Fix it.

Add each lock class to the all_lock_classes list when it is
first registered.
Previously, lock classes were added to all_lock_classes when
the lock class was first used. Since one of the uses of the
list is to find unused locks, this didn't work well.

Oleg Nesterov and others have pointed out that on some architectures,
the traditional sequence of
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (CONDITION)
return;
schedule();
is racy wrt another CPU doing
CONDITION = 1;
wake_up_process(p);
because while set_current_state() has a memory barrier separating
setting of the TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state from reading of the CONDITION
variable, there is no such memory barrier on the wakeup side.
Now, wake_up_process() does actually take a spinlock before it reads and
sets the task state on the waking side, and on x86 (and many other
architectures) that spinlock is in fact equivalent to a memory barrier,
but that is not generally guaranteed. The write that sets CONDITION
could move into the critical region protected by the runqueue spinlock.
However, adding a smp_wmb() to before the spinlock should now order the
writing of CONDITION wrt the lock itself, which in turn is ordered wrt
the accesses within the spinlock (which includes the reading of the old
state).
This should thus close the race (which probably has never been seen in
practice, but since smp_wmb() is a no-op on x86, it's not like this will
make anything worse either on the most common architecture where the
spinlock already gave the required protection).

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.

When the futex init code fails to initialize the futex pseudo file system it
returns early without initializing the hash queues. Should the boot succeed
then a futex syscall which tries to enqueue a waiter on the hashqueue will
crash due to the unitilialized plist heads.

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).

The default_disable() function was changed in commit:
76d2160147f43f982dfe881404cfde9fd0a9da21
genirq: do not mask interrupts by default
It removed the mask function in favour of the default delayed
interrupt disabling. Unfortunately this also broke the shutdown in
free_irq() when the last handler is removed from the interrupt for
those architectures which rely on the default implementations. Now we
can end up with a enabled interrupt line after the last handler was
removed, which can result in spurious interrupts.
Fix this by adding a default_shutdown function, which is only
installed, when the irqchip implementation does provide neither a
shutdown nor a disable function.

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:

Various user space callers ask for relative timeouts. While we fixed
that overflow issue in hrtimer_start(), the sites which convert
relative user space values to absolute timeouts themself were uncovered.
Instead of putting overflow checks into each place add a function
which does the sanity checking and convert all affected callers to use
it.

RCU style multiple probes support for the Linux Kernel Markers. Common case
(one probe) is still fast and does not require dynamic allocation or a
supplementary pointer dereference on the fast path.
- Move preempt disable from the marker site to the callback.
Since we now have an internal callback, move the preempt disable/enable to the
callback instead of the marker site.
Since the callback change is done asynchronously (passing from a handler that
supports arguments to a handler that does not setup the arguments is no
arguments are passed), we can safely update it even if it is outside the
preempt disable section.
- Move probe arm to probe connection. Now, a connected probe is automatically
armed.
Remove MARK_MAX_FORMAT_LEN, unused.
This patch modifies the Linux Kernel Markers API : it removes the probe
"arm/disarm" and changes the probe function prototype : it now expects a
va_list * instead of a "...".
If we want to have more than one probe connected to a marker at a given
time (LTTng, or blktrace, ssytemtap) then we need this patch. Without it,
connecting a second probe handler to a marker will fail.
It allow us, for instance, to do interesting combinations :
Do standard tracing with LTTng and, eventually, to compute statistics
with SystemTAP, or to have a special trigger on an event that would call
a systemtap script which would stop flight recorder tracing.

Steven mentioned the fun case where a lock holding task will be throttled.
Simple fix: allow groups that have boosted tasks to run anyway.
If a runnable task in a throttled group gets boosted the dequeue/enqueue
done by rt_mutex_setprio() is enough to unthrottle the group.
This is ofcourse not quite correct. Two possible ways forward are:
- second prio array for boosted tasks
- boost to a prio ceiling (this would also work for deadline scheduling)

The USEC_TO_HZ and HZ_TO_USEC constant sets were mislabelled, with
seriously incorrect results. This among other things manifested
itself as cpufreq not working when a tickless kernel was configured.

hrtimer_nanosleep_restart() clears/restores restart_block->fn. This is
pointless and complicates its usage. Note that if sys_restart_syscall()
doesn't actually happen, we have a bogus "pending" restart->fn anyway,
this is harmless.

compat_sys_nanosleep() implicitly uses hrtimer_nanosleep_restart(), this can't
work. Make a suitable compat_nanosleep_restart() helper.
Introduced by commit c70878b4e0b6cf8d2f1e46319e48e821ef4a8aba
hrtimer: hook compat_sys_nanosleep up to high res timer code
Also, set ->addr_limit = KERNEL_DS before doing hrtimer_nanosleep(), this func
was changed by the previous patch and now takes the "__user *" parameter.
Thanks to Ingo Molnar for fixing the bug in this patch.

Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan.
hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to
the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that
if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we
don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack
frame.
Introduced by commit 04c227140fed77587432667a574b14736a06dd7f
hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier
Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change
hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp.
Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if
nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp
if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem
even if nanosleep() returns 0.
NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other
bugs. Fixed by the next patch.
