x86: Do not free zero sized per cpu areas
x86: Make sure free_init_pages() frees pages on page boundary

CONFIG_SLOW_WORK_PROC was changed to CONFIG_SLOW_WORK_DEBUG, but not in all
instances. Change the remaining instances. This makes the debugfs file
display the time mark and the owner's description again.

request_resource() and insert_resource() only return success or failure,
which no information about what existing resource conflicted with the
proposed new reservation. This patch adds request_resource_conflict()
and insert_resource_conflict(), which return the conflicting resource.
Callers may use this for better error messages or to adjust the new
resource and retry the request.

The logarithmic accumulation done in the timekeeping has some overflow
protection that limits the max shift value. That means it will take
more then shift loops to accumulate all of the cycles. This causes
the shift decrement to underflow, which causes the loop to never exit.
The simplest fix would be simply to do a:
if (shift)
shift--;
However that is not optimal, as we know the cycle offset is larger
then the interval << shift, the above would make shift drop to zero,
then we would be spinning for quite awhile accumulating at interval
chunks at a time.
Instead, this patch only decreases shift if the offset is smaller
then cycle_interval << shift. This makes sure we accumulate using
the largest chunks possible without overflowing tick_length, and limits
the number of iterations through the loop.
This issue was found and reported by Sonic Zhang, who also tested the fix.
Many thanks your explanation and testing!

Ensure additions on touch_ts do not overflow. This can occur
when the top 32 bits of the TSC reach 0xffffffff causing
additions to touch_ts to overflow and this in turn generates
spurious softlockup warnings.

The ring buffer uses 4 byte alignment while recording events into the
buffer, even on 64bit machines. This saves space when there are lots
of events being recorded at 4 byte boundaries.
The ring buffer has a zero copy method to write into the buffer, with
the reserving of space and then committing it. This may cause problems
when writing an 8 byte word into a 4 byte alignment (not 8). For x86 and
PPC this is not an issue, but on some architectures this would cause an
out-of-alignment exception.
This patch uses CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS to determine
if it is OK to use 4 byte alignments on 64 bit machines. If it is not,
it forces the ring buffer event header to be 8 bytes and not 4,
and will align the length of the data to be 8 byte aligned.
This keeps the data payload at 8 byte alignments and will allow these
machines to run without issue.
The trick to this is that the header can be either 4 bytes or 8 bytes
depending on the length of the data payload. The 4 byte header
has a length field that supports up to 112 bytes. If the length of
the data is more than 112, the length field is set to zero, and the actual
length is stored in the next 4 bytes after the header.
When CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is not set, the code forces
zero in the 4 byte header forcing the length to be stored in the 4 byte
array, even with a small data load. It also forces the length of the
data load to be 8 byte aligned. The combination of these two guarantee
that the data is always at 8 byte alignment.

perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs() is exported for the overriden x86
version, but not for the generic weak version.
As a general rule, weak functions should not have their symbol
exported in the same file they are defined.
So let's export it on trace_event_perf.c as it is used by trace
events only.
This fixes:
ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [fs/xfs/xfs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: ".perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs" [arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/spufs.ko] undefined!
-v2: And also only build it if trace events are enabled.
-v3: Fix changelog mistake
