By pre-computing the maximum number of samples per tick we can avoid a
multiplication and a conditional since MAX_INTERRUPTS >
max_samples_per_tick.

This kernel patch adds the ability to filter monitoring based on
container groups (cgroups). This is for use in per-cpu mode only.
The cgroup to monitor is passed as a file descriptor in the pid
argument to the syscall. The file descriptor must be opened to
the cgroup name in the cgroup filesystem. For instance, if the
cgroup name is foo and cgroupfs is mounted in /cgroup, then the
file descriptor is opened to /cgroup/foo. Cgroup mode is
activated by passing PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP in the flags argument
to the syscall.
For instance to measure in cgroup foo on CPU1 assuming
cgroupfs is mounted under /cgroup:
struct perf_event_attr attr;
int cgroup_fd, fd;
cgroup_fd = open("/cgroup/foo", O_RDONLY);
fd = perf_event_open(&attr, cgroup_fd, 1, -1, PERF_FLAG_PID_CGROUP);
close(cgroup_fd);

Make the ::exit method act like ::attach, it is after all very nearly
the same thing.
The bug had no effect on correctness - fixing it is an optimization for
the scheduler. Also, later perf-cgroups patches rely on it.

Transparent hugepages can only be created if rmap is fully
functional. So we must prevent hugepages to be created while
is_vma_temporary_stack() is true.
This also optmizes away some harmless but unnecessary setting of
khugepaged_scan.address and it switches some BUG_ON to VM_BUG_ON.

Commit c0e69a5bbc ("klist.c: bit 0 in pointer can't be used as flag")
intended to make sure that all klist objects were at least pointer size
aligned, but used the constant "4" which only works on 32-bit.
Use "sizeof(void *)" which is correct in all cases.

When the fuction graph tracer starts, it needs to make a special
stack for each task to save the real return values of the tasks.
All running tasks have this stack created, as well as any new
tasks.
On CPU hot plug, the new idle task will allocate a stack as well
when init_idle() is called. The problem is that cpu hotplug does
not create a new idle_task. Instead it uses the idle task that
existed when the cpu went down.
ftrace_graph_init_task() will add a new ret_stack to the task
that is given to it. Because a clone will make the task
have a stack of its parent it does not check if the task's
ret_stack is already NULL or not. When the CPU hotplug code
starts a CPU up again, it will allocate a new stack even
though one already existed for it.
The solution is to treat the idle_task specially. In fact, the
function_graph code already does, just not at init_idle().
Instead of using the ftrace_graph_init_task() for the idle task,
which that function expects the task to be a clone, have a
separate ftrace_graph_init_idle_task(). Also, we will create a
per_cpu ret_stack that is used by the idle task. When we call
ftrace_graph_init_idle_task() it will check if the idle task's
ret_stack is NULL, if it is, then it will assign it the per_cpu
ret_stack.

FTRACE_SYSCALLS would create events for each and every system call, even
if it had failed to map the system call's name with it's number. This
resulted in a number of events being created that would not behave as
expected.
This could happen, for example, on architectures who's symbol names are
unusual and will not match the system call name. It could also happen
with system calls which were mapped to sys_ni_syscall.
This patch changes the default system call number in the metadata to -1.
If the system call name from the metadata is not successfully mapped to
a system call number during boot, than the event initialisation routine
will now return an error, preventing the event from being created.
