"futexes: Increase hash table size for better performance"
introduces a new alloc_large_system_hash() call.
alloc_large_system_hash() however may allocate less memory than
requested, e.g. limited by MAX_ORDER.
Hence pass a pointer to alloc_large_system_hash() which will
contain the hash shift when the function returns. Afterwards
correctly set futex_hashsize.
Fixes a crash on s390 where the requested allocation size was
4MB but only 1MB was allocated.

Fengguang Wu reported the following build warning:
> kernel/sched/core.c:3067 __sched_setscheduler() warn: unsigned 'attr->sched_priority' is never less than zero.
Since it doesn't make sense for attr::sched_priority to be negative,
remove the check, since we already test for an upper limit any actual
negative values passed in through the old param::sched_priority field
will still be detected.

Wu reported LTP failures:

> ltp.sched_setparam03.1.TFAIL
There were 2 things wrong; firstly __setscheduler() failed on
sched_setparam()'s policy = -1, fix that by reading from p->policy in
that case.
Secondly, getparam() (and getattr()) would still report !0
sched_priority for !FIFO/RR tasks after having been such. So
unconditionally set p->rt_priority.

Pull scheduler and timer fixes from Ingo Molnar:

driver"

While calculating the scheduler tick max deferment, the delta is
converted from microseconds to nanoseconds through a multiplication
against NSEC_PER_USEC.
But this microseconds operand is an unsigned int, thus the result may
likely overflow. The result is cast to u64 but only once the operation
is completed, which is too late to avoid overflown result.
This is currently not a problem because the scheduler tick max deferment
is 1 second. But this may become an issue as we plan to make this
value tunable.
So lets fix this by casting the usecs value to u64 before multiplying by
NSECS_PER_USEC.
Also to prevent from this kind of mistake to happen again, move this
ad-hoc jiffies -> nsecs conversion to a new helper.

The equivalent uapi struct uses __u32 so make the kernel
uses u32 too.
This can prevent some oddities where the limit is

The trace buffer has a descriptor pointer that goes back to the trace
array. But it was never assigned. Luckily, nothing uses it (yet), but
it will in the future.
Although nothing currently uses this, if any of the new features get
backported to older kernels, and because this is such a simple change,
I'm marking it for stable too.

We had some craziness with signed to unsigned long casting which appears
wholely unnecessary. Just use signed long. Even though 2 values of the
math equation are unsigned longs the result is expected to be a signed
long. So why keep casting the result to signed long? Just make it
signed long and use it.
We also remove the needless "timeout" variable. We already have the
stack "sleep_time" variable. Just use that...
