Thomas Gleixner 29d5e0476e smp: Provide generic idle thread allocation
All SMP architectures have magic to fork the idle task and to store it
for reusage when cpu hotplug is enabled. Provide a generic
infrastructure for it.

Create/reinit the idle thread for the cpu which is brought up in the
generic code and hand the thread pointer to the architecture code via
__cpu_up().

Note, that fork_idle() is called via a workqueue, because this
guarantees that the idle thread does not get a reference to a user
space VM. This can happen when the boot process did not bring up all
possible cpus and a later cpu_up() is initiated via the sysfs
interface. In that case fork_idle() would be called in the context of
the user space task and take a reference on the user space VM.

themselves, so just pass the page and do the look up in there.

We already had two bugs (6568d4a 'mm: memcg: update the correct soft

replace_page_cache') where the passed page and pc were not referring
to the same page frame.

David Miller 4e1c2b2844 mm: nobootmem: Correct alloc_bootmem semantics.
The comments above __alloc_bootmem_node() claim that the code will
first try the allocation using 'goal' and if that fails it will
try again but with the 'goal' requirement dropped.

Unfortunately, this is not what the code does, so fix it to do so.

This is important for nobootmem conversions to architectures such
as sparc where MAX_DMA_ADDRESS is infinity.

On such architectures all of the allocations done by generic spots,
such as the sparse-vmemmap implementation, will pass in:

	__pa(MAX_DMA_ADDRESS)

as the goal, and with the limit given as "-1" this will always fail
unless we add the appropriate fallback logic here.

Bob Peterson 4c569a72c3 GFS2: Instruct DLM to avoid queue convert slowdown
This patch instructs DLM to prevent an "in place" conversion, where the
lock just stays on the granted queue, and instead forces the conversion to
the back of the convert queue. This is done on upward conversions only.
    
This is useful in cases where, for example, a lock is frequently needed in
PR on one node, but another node needs it temporarily in EX to update it.
This may happen, for example, when the rindex is being updated by gfs2_grow.
The gfs2_grow needs to have the lock in EX, but the other nodes need to
re-read it to retrieve the updates. The glock is already granted in PR on
the non-growing nodes, so this prevents them from continually re-granting
the lock in PR, and forces the EX from gfs2_grow to go through.
