Commit 026cee0086 "params:
<level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module
parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used
to, early in start_kernel().
We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled
module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level
0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice.
(Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does).
Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls.

During early boot, when the scheduler hasn't really been fully set up,
we really can't do blocking allocations because with certain (dubious)
configurations the "might_resched()" calls can actually result in
scheduling events.
We could just make such users always use GFP_ATOMIC, but quite often the
code that does the allocation isn't really aware of the fact that the
scheduler isn't up yet, and forcing that kind of random knowledge on the
initialization code is just annoying and not good for anybody.
And we actually have a the 'gfp_allowed_mask' exactly for this reason:
it's just that the kernel init sequence happens to set it to allow
blocking allocations much too early.
So move the 'gfp_allowed_mask' initialization from 'start_kernel()'
(which is some of the earliest init code, and runs with preemption
disabled for good reasons) into 'kernel_init()'. kernel_init() is run
in the newly created thread that will become the 'init' process, as
opposed to the early startup code that runs within the context of what
will be the first idle thread.
So by the time we reach 'kernel_init()', we know that the scheduler must
be at least limping along, because we've already scheduled from the idle
thread into the init thread.

Add a 3rd arg, named "doing", to unknown-options callbacks invoked
from parse_args(). The arg is passed as:
"Booting kernel" from start_kernel(),
initcall_level_names[i] from do_initcall_level(),
mod->name from load_module(), via parse_args(), parse_one()
parse_args() already has the "name" parameter, which is renamed to
"doing" to better reflect current uses 1,2 above. parse_args() passes
it to an altered parse_one(), which now passes it down into the
unknown option handler callbacks.
The mod->name will be needed to handle dyndbg for loadable modules,
since params passed by modprobe are not qualified (they do not have a
"$modname." prefix), and by the time the unknown-param callback is
called, the module name is not otherwise available.
Minor tweaks:
Add param-name to parse_one's pr_debug(), current message doesnt
identify the param being handled, add it.
Add a pr_info to print current level and level_name of the initcall,
and number of registered initcalls at that level. This adds 7 lines
to dmesg output, like:
initlevel:6=device, 172 registered initcalls
Drop "parameters" from initcall_level_names[], its unhelpful in the
pr_info() added above. This array is passed into parse_args() by
do_initcall_level().

Commit 026cee0086 had the side-effect of dropping the '=' from
the unknown boot arguments that are passed to init as environment
variables. This is because parse_args() puts a NUL in the string
where the '=' was when it passes the "param" and "val" pointers
to the parsing subfunctions. Previously, unknown_bootoption() was
the last parse_args() subfunction to run, and it carefully put back
the '=' character. Now the ignore_unknown_bootoption() is the last
one to run, and it wasn't doing the necessary repair, so the
envp params ended up with the embedded NUL and were no longer
seen as valid environment variables by init.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
"Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
dependencies.
I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
and made sure that they don't break.
The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().
This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.
The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of
low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()).
These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:
(1) asm/barrier.h
Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha.
(2) asm/switch_to.h
Move switch_to() and related stuff here.
(3) asm/exec.h
Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits
could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.
(4) asm/cmpxchg.h
Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().
(5) asm/bug.h
Move die() and related bits.
(6) asm/auxvec.h
Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.
Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."
Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that. We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..

This patch adds a set of macros that can be used to declare
kernel parameters to be parsed _before_ initcalls at a chosen
level are executed. We rename the now-unused "flags" field of
struct kernel_param as the level. It's signed, for when we
use this for early params as well, in future.
Linker macro collating init calls had to be modified in order
to add additional symbols between levels that are later used
by the init code to split the calls into blocks.

This patch fixes a lockdep warning on ARM platforms:
[ 0.000000] WARNING: lockdep init error! Arch code didn't call lockdep_init() early enough?
[ 0.000000] Call stack leading to lockdep invocation was:
[ 0.000000] [<c00164bc>] save_stack_trace_tsk+0x0/0x90
[ 0.000000] [<ffffffff>] 0xffffffff
The warning is caused by printk inside smp_setup_processor_id().
It is safe to do this because lockdep_init() doesn't depend on
smp_setup_processor_id(), so improve things that printk can be
called as early as possible without lockdep complaint.

Commit d5767c5353 ("bootup: move 'usermodehelper_enable()' to the end

do_basic_setup() to after the initcalls. But then I get failed to let
uvesafb work on my computer, and lose the splash boot.
So maybe we could start usermodehelper_enable a little early to make
some task work that need eary init with the help of user mode.
[ I would *really* prefer that initcalls not call into user space - even
the real 'init' hasn't been execve'd yet, after all! But for uvesafb
it really does look like we don't have much choice.
I considered doing this when we mount the root filesystem, but
depending on config options that is in multiple places. We could do
the usermode helper enable as a rootfs_initcall()..
So I'm just using wang yanqing's trivial patch. It's not wonderful,
but it's simple and should work. We should revisit this some day,

Doing it just before starting to call into cpu_idle() made a sick kind
of sense only because the original bug we fixed (see commit
288d5abec8: "Boot up with usermodehelper disabled") was about problems
with some scheduler data structures not being initialized, and they had
better be initialized at that point.
But it really didn't make any other conceptual sense, and doing it after
the initial "schedule()" call for the idle thread actually opened up a
race: what if the main initialization thread did everything without
needing to sleep, and got all the way into user land too? Without
actually having scheduled back to the idle thread?
Now, in normal circumstances that doesn't ever happen, but it looks like
Richard Cochran triggered exactly that on his ARM IXP4xx machines:
"I have some ARM IXP4xx based machines that use the two on chip MAC
ports (aka NPEs). The NPE needs a firmware in order to function.
Ever since the following commit [that 288d5abec8 one], it is no
longer possible to bring up the interfaces during the init scripts."
with a call trace showing an ioctl coming from user space. Richard says:
"The init is busybox, and the startup script does mount, syslogd, and
then ifup, so that all can go by quickly."
The fix is to move the usermodehelper_enable() into the main 'init'
thread, and just put it after we've done all our initcalls. By then,
everything really should be up, but we've obviously not actually started
the user-mode portion of init yet.

That then suppresses all following messages, including all the errors

The core device layer sends tons of uevent notifications for each device
it finds, and if the kernel has been built with a non-empty
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH that will make us try to execute the usermode
helper binary for all these events very early in the boot.
Not only won't the root filesystem even be mounted at that point, we
literally won't have necessarily even initialized all the process
handling data structures at that point, which causes no end of silly
problems even when the usermode helper doesn't actually succeed in
executing.
So just use our existing infrastructure to disable the usermodehelpers
to make the kernel start out with them disabled. We enable them when
we've at least initialized stuff a bit.
