The conversion from IPR-IRQ to IRQ-chip resulted in the
ipr data being allocated in a local variable in
make_ipr_irq - breaking anything using IPR interrupts.
This changes all of the callers of make_ipr_irq to
allocate a static structure containing the IPR data which
is then passed to make_ipr_irq. This removes the need for
make_ipr_irq to allocate any additional space for the IPR
information.

signal_struct is (mostly) protected by ->sighand->siglock, I think we don't
need ->taskstats_lock to protect ->stats. This also allows us to simplify the
locking in fill_tgid().

taskstats_tgid_free() is called on copy_process's error path. This is wrong.
IF (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD)
We should not clear ->signal->taskstats, current uses it,
it probably has a valid accumulated info.
ELSE
taskstats_tgid_init() set ->signal->taskstats = NULL,
there is nothing to free.
Move the callsite to __exit_signal(). We don't need any locking, entire
thread group is exiting, nobody should have a reference to soon to be
released ->signal.

If __vmalloc is called to allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in atomic
context, the chain of calls results in __get_vm_area_node allocating memory
for vm_struct with GFP_KERNEL, causing the 'sleeping from invalid context'
warning. This patch fixes it by passing the gfp flags along so
__get_vm_area_node allocates memory for vm_struct with the same flags.

The temp_priority field in zone is racy, as we can walk through a reclaim
path, and just before we copy it into prev_priority, it can be overwritten
(say with DEF_PRIORITY) by another reclaimer.
The same bug is contained in both try_to_free_pages and balance_pgdat, but
it is fixed slightly differently. In balance_pgdat, we keep a separate
priority record per zone in a local array. In try_to_free_pages there is
no need to do this, as the priority level is the same for all zones that we
reclaim from.
Impact of this bug is that temp_priority is copied into prev_priority, and
setting this artificially high causes reclaimers to set distress
artificially low. They then fail to reclaim mapped pages, when they are,
in fact, under severe memory pressure (their priority may be as low as 0).
This causes the OOM killer to fire incorrectly.
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>
__zone_reclaim() isn't modifying zone->prev_priority. But zone->prev_priority
is used in the decision whether or not to bring mapped pages onto the inactive
list. Hence there's a risk here that __zone_reclaim() will fail because
zone->prev_priority ir large (ie: low urgency) and lots of mapped pages end up
stuck on the active list.
Fix that up by decreasing (ie making more urgent) zone->prev_priority as
__zone_reclaim() scans the zone's pages.
This bug perhaps explains why ZONE_RECLAIM_PRIORITY was created. It should be
possible to remove that now, and to just start out at DEF_PRIORITY?

The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg,
core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next
level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling
core_initcall are still executing. This breaks the guarantees which the
layered initcalls previously gave us.
IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between
different levels.
Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at
one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

A number of new drivers require io{read,write}{8,16,32}{be,} family of io
operations. These are provided for the AVR32 by this patch in the form of
a series of macros.
Access to the (memory mapped) io space through these macros is defined to
be little endian only as little endian devices (such as PCI) are the main
consumer of IO access. If high speed access is required,
io{read,write}{16,32}be macros are supplied to perform native big endian
access to this io space.

When calling e.g. atomic_sub_return with a large constant, the
compiler may output an immediate that is too large for the sub
instruction in the middle of the loop.
Fix this by explicitly specifying the number of bits allowed in the
constraint. Also stop atomic_add_return() and friends from falling
back to their respective "sub" variants if the constant is too large
to fit in an immediate.
