Michael Witten and Christian Kujau reported that the autogroup
scheduling feature hurts interactivity on their UP systems.
It turns out that this is an older bug in the group scheduling code,
and the wider appeal provided by the autogroup feature exposed it
more prominently.
When on UP with FAIR_GROUP_SCHED enabled, tune shares
only affect tg->shares, but is not reflected in
tg->se->load. The reason is that update_cfs_shares()
does nothing on UP.
So introduce update_cfs_shares() for UP && FAIR_GROUP_SCHED.
This issue was found when enable autogroup scheduling was enabled,
but it is an older bug that also exists on cgroup.cpu on UP.

* 'BUG_ON' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux-2.6-for-linus:
Remove MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON
BUILD_BUG_ON: make it handle more cases
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux-2.6-for-linus:
module: fix missing semicolons in MODULE macro usage
param: add null statement to compiled-in module params
module: fix linker error for MODULE_VERSION when !MODULE and CONFIG_SYSFS=n
module: show version information for built-in modules in sysfs
BUILD_BUG_ON used to use the optimizer to do code elimination or fail
at link time; it was changed to first the size of a negative array (a
nicer compile time error), then (in
8c87df457c) to a bitfield.
This forced us to change some non-constant cases to MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON();
as Jan points out in that commit, it didn't work as intended anyway.
bitfields: needs a literal constant at parse time, and can't be put under
"if (__builtin_constant_p(x))" for example.
negative array: can handle anything, but if the compiler can't tell it's
a constant, silently has no effect.
link time: breaks link if the compiler can't determine the value, but the
linker output is not usually as informative as a compiler error.
If we use the negative-array-size method *and* the link time trick,
we get the ability to use BUILD_BUG_ON() under __builtin_constant_p()
branches, and maximal ability for the compiler to detect errors at
build time.
We also document it thoroughly.

You always needed them when you were a module, but the builtin versions
of the macros used to be more lenient.

Add an unused struct declaration statement requiring a
terminating semicolon to the compile-in case to provoke an
error if __MODULE_INFO() is used without the terminating
semicolon. Previously MODULE_ALIAS("foo") (no semicolon)
compiled fine if MODULE was not selected.

Simplest to just not emit anything: if they've disabled SYSFS they probably
want the smallest kernel possible.

Currently only drivers that are built as modules have their versions
shown in /sys/module/<module_name>/version, but this information might
also be useful for built-in drivers as well. This especially important
for drivers that do not define any parameters - such drivers, if
built-in, are completely invisible from userspace.
This patch changes MODULE_VERSION() macro so that in case when we are
compiling built-in module, version information is stored in a separate
section. Kernel then uses this data to create 'version' sysfs attribute
in the same fashion it creates attributes for module parameters.

commit 3f0d3d016d adds a check for
PNP device id to the common tpm_tis_init() function, which in some
cases (force=1) will be called without the device being a member of
a pnp_dev. Oopsing and panics ensue.
Move the test up to before the call to tpm_tis_init(), since it
just modifies a global variable anyway.

If duration variable value is 0 at this point, it's because
chip->vendor.duration wasn't filled by tpm_get_timeouts() yet.
This patch sets then the lowest timeout just to give enough
time for tpm_get_timeouts() to further succeed.
This fix avoids long boot times in case another entity attempts
to send commands to the TPM when the TPM isn't accessible.
