I've left the commandline option in place for now, as paranoia.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
"More change than I'd have liked at this stage. The pids controller
and the changes made to cgroup core to support it introduced and
revealed several important issues.
- Assigning membership to a newly created task and migrating it can
race leading to incorrect accounting. Oleg fixed it by widening
threadgroup synchronization. It looks like we'll be able to merge
it with a different percpu rwsem which is used in fork path making
things simpler and cheaper.
- The recent change to extend cgroup membership to zombies (so that
pid accounting can extend till the pid is actually released) missed
pinning the underlying data structures leading to use-after-free.
Fixed.
- v2 hierarchy was calling subsystem callbacks with the wrong target
cgroup_subsys_state based on the incorrect assumption that they
share the same target. pids is the first controller affected by
this. Subsys callbacks updated so that they can deal with
multi-target migrations"

Fixes native drm clients like Fedora 23 Wayland which now appears to
be able to use cursor hotspots without strange cursor offsets.
Also fixes a couple of ignored error paths.
Since the core drm cursor hotspot is incompatible with the legacy vmwgfx
hotspot (the core drm hotspot is reset when the drm_mode_cursor ioctl
is used), we need to keep track of both and add them when the device
hotspot is set. We assume that either is always zero.

Improves cacheline transfer flow of available ring header.
Virtqueues are implemented as a pair of rings, one producer->consumer
avail ring and one consumer->producer used ring; preceding the
avail ring in memory are two contiguous u16 fields -- avail->flags
and avail->idx. A producer posts work by writing to avail->idx and
a consumer reads avail->idx.
The flags and idx fields only need to be written by a producer CPU
and only read by a consumer CPU; when the producer and consumer are
running on different CPUs and the virtio_ring code is structured to
only have source writes/sink reads, we can continuously transfer the
avail header cacheline between 'M' states between cores. This flow
optimizes core -> core bandwidth on certain CPUs.
(see: "Software Optimization Guide for AMD Family 15h Processors",
Section 11.6; similar language appears in the 10h guide and should
apply to CPUs w/ exclusive caches, using LLC as a transfer cache)
Unfortunately the existing virtio_ring code issued reads to the
avail->idx and read-modify-writes to avail->flags on the producer.
This change shadows the flags and index fields in producer memory;
the vring code now reads from the shadows and only ever writes to
avail->flags and avail->idx, allowing the cacheline to transfer
core -> core optimally.
In a concurrent version of vring_bench, the time required for
10,000,000 buffer checkout/returns was reduced by ~2% (average
across many runs) on an AMD Piledriver (15h) CPU:
(w/o shadowing):
Performance counter stats for './vring_bench':
5,451,082,016 L1-dcache-loads
...
2.221477739 seconds time elapsed
(w/ shadowing):
Performance counter stats for './vring_bench':
5,405,701,361 L1-dcache-loads
...
2.168405376 seconds time elapsed
The further away (in a NUMA sense) virtio producers and consumers are
from each other, the more we expect to benefit. Physical implementations
of virtio devices and implementations of virtio where the consumer polls
vring avail indexes (vhost) should also benefit.

b92b1b89a3 ("virtio: force vring descriptors to be allocated from
lowmem") tried to exclude highmem pages for descriptors so it cleared
__GFP_HIGHMEM from a given gfp mask. The patch also cleared __GFP_HIGH
which doesn't make much sense for this fix because __GFP_HIGH only
controls access to memory reserves and it doesn't have any influence
on the zone selection. Some of the call paths use GFP_ATOMIC and
dropping __GFP_HIGH will reduce their changes for success because the
lack of access to memory reserves.

The virtio core uses a static ida named virtio_index_ida for
assigning index numbers to virtio devices during registration.
The ida core may allocate some internal idr cache layers and
an ida bitmap upon any ida allocation, and all these layers are
truely freed only upon the ida destruction. The virtio_index_ida
is not destroyed at present, leading to a memory leak when using
the virtio core as a module and atleast one virtio device is
registered and unregistered.
Fix this by invoking ida_destroy() in the virtio core module
exit.
