[PATCH] get rid of __exit_files(), __exit_fs() and __put_fs_struct()
[PATCH] proc_readfd_common() race fix
[PATCH] double-free of inode on alloc_file() failure exit in create_write_pipe()
[PATCH] teach seq_file to discard entries

[PATCH] lock exclusively in collect_mounts() and drop_collected_mounts()
[PATCH] move a bunch of declarations to fs/internal.h
The only reason to have separated __...() for those was to keep them inlined
for local users in exit.c. Since Alexey removed the inline on those, there's
no reason whatsoever to keep them around; just collapse with normal variants.

This adds support for PTRACE_GETSIGINFO and PTRACE_SETSIGINFO in
compat_ptrace_request. It relies on existing arch definitions for
copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_from_user32.
On powerpc, this fixes a longstanding regression of 32-bit ptrace
calls on 64-bit kernels vs native calls (64-bit calls or 32-bit
kernels). This can be seen in a 32-bit call using PTRACE_GETSIGINFO
to examine e.g. siginfo_t.si_addr from a signal that sets it.
(This was broken as of 2.6.24 and, I presume, many or all prior versions.)

The previous optimization did not take the case into account where a
clock provides its own softirq_get_time() function.
Check for the availablitiy of the clock get time function first and
then check if we need to retrieve the time for both clocks via
hrtimer_softirq_gettime() to avoid a double evaluation of time in that
case as well.

It seems that hrtimer_run_queues() is calling hrtimer_get_softirq_time() more
often than it needs to. This can cause frequent contention on systems with
large numbers of processors/cores.
With this patch, hrtimer_run_queues only calls hrtimer_get_softirq_time() if
there is a pending timer in one of the hrtimer bases, and only once.
This also combines hrtimer_run_queues() and the inline run_hrtimer_queue()
into one function.

Besides, I removed IORESOURCE_BUS_HAS_VGA flag which was unused for ages.

In order to level the hierarchy, we need to calculate load based on the
root view. That is, each task's load is in the same unit.
A
/ \
B 1
/ \
2 3
To compute 1's load we do:
weight(1)
--------------
rq_weight(A)
To compute 2's load we do:
weight(2) weight(B)
------------ * -----------
rq_weight(B) rw_weight(A)
This yields load fractions in comparable units.
The consequence is that it changes virtual time. We used to have:
time_{i}
vtime_{i} = ------------
weight_{i}
vtime = \Sum vtime_{i} = time / rq_weight.
But with the new way of load calculation we get that vtime equals time.

Now that the group hierarchy can have an arbitrary depth the O(n^2) nature
of RT task dequeues will really hurt. Optimize this by providing space to
store the tree path, so we can walk it the other way.
