Following an experimental deletion of the unnecessary directive
#include <linux/slab.h>
from the header file <linux/percpu.h>, these files under kernel/ were exposed
as needing to include one of <linux/slab.h> or <linux/gfp.h>, so explicit
includes were added where necessary.

* Use new set_cpus_allowed_ptr() function added by previous patch,
which instead of passing the "newly allowed cpus" cpumask_t arg
by value, pass it by pointer:
-int set_cpus_allowed(struct task_struct *p, cpumask_t new_mask)
+int set_cpus_allowed_ptr(struct task_struct *p, const cpumask_t *new_mask)
* Modify CPU_MASK_ALL

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.
The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.
In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.

Repost of http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/10/472 made available by request.
The locking used by get_random_bytes() can conflict with the
preempt_disable() and synchronize_sched() form of RCU. This patch changes
rcutorture's RNG to gather entropy from the new cpu_clock() interface
(relying on interrupts, preemption, daemons, and rcutorture's reader
thread's rock-bottom scheduling priority to provide useful entropy), and
also adds and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() to make that interface available to GPLed
kernel modules such as rcutorture.
Passes several hours of rcutorture.

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

rcutorture's module parameters currently use permissions of 0, so they
don't show up in /sys/module/rcutorture/parameters. Change the permissions
on all module parameters to world-readable (0444).
rcutorture does all of its initialization and thread startup when loaded
and relies on the parameters not changing during execution, so they should
not permit writing. However, reading seems fine.

rcutorture currently has one writer and an arbitrary number of readers. To
better exercise some of the code paths in RCU implementations, add fake
writer threads which call the synchronize function for the RCU variant in a
loop, with a delay between calls to arrange for different numbers of
writers running in parallel.

rcu_random uses a counter rrs_count to occasionally mix data from
get_random_bytes into the state of its pseudorandom generator. However,
the rrs_counter gets declared as an unsigned long, and rcu_random checks
for --rrs_count < 0, so this code will never mix any real random data into
the state, and will thus always return the same sequence of random numbers.
Also, change the return value of rcu_random from long to unsigned long, to
avoid potential issues caused by the use of the % operator, which can
return negative values for negative left operands.

rcu_torture_init kmallocs the array of reader threads, then creates each
one with kthread_run, cleaning up with rcu_torture_cleanup if this fails.
rcu_torture_cleanup calls kthread_stop on any non-NULL pointer in the
array; however, any readers after the one that failed to start up will have
invalid pointers, not null pointers. Avoid this by using kzalloc instead.

releasing them, and the matching functions rcu_torture_read_unlock and
rcu_bh_torture_read_unlock get called with the corresponding locks held and
release them. Add lock annotations to these four functions so that sparse
can check callers for lock pairing, and so that sparse will not complain
about these functions since they intentionally use locks in this manner.
