Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main scheduling related changes in this cycle were:
- various sched/numa updates, for better performance
- tree wide cleanup of open coded nice levels
- nohz fix related to rq->nr_running use
- cpuidle changes and continued consolidation to improve the
kernel/sched/idle.c high level idle scheduling logic. As part of
this effort I pulled cpuidle driver changes from Rafael as well.
- standardized idle polling amongst architectures
- continued work on preparing better power/energy aware scheduling
- sched/rt updates
- misc fixlets and cleanups"

...
Instead of getting the reference to whole credential structure, use
task_euid() and current_euid() to get it.

ION system heap keeps pages in its pool for better performance. When the
system is under memory pressure, slab shrinker calls the callback
registered and then the pages pooled get freed.
When the shrinker is called, it checks gfp_mask and determines whether
the pages from highmem need to be freed or the pages from lowmem.
Usually, slab shrinker is invoked on kswapd context which gfp_mask is
always GFP_KERNEL, so only lowmem pages are released on kswapd context.
This means that highmem pages in the pool are never reclaimed until
direct reclaim occurs. This can be problematic when the page pool holds
excessive amounts of highmem.
For now, the shrinker callback cannot know exactly which zone should be
targeted for reclamation, as enough information are not passed to. Thus,
it makes sense to shrink both lowmem and highmem zone on kswapd context.

The page pool uses an internal data structure, ion_page_pool_item, for
wrapping pooled pages and constructing a list. As the struct page
already provides ways for doing exactly the same thing, we do not need
to reinvent the wheel. This commit removes the data structure and slab
allocations for it.

ion_page_pool_total() returns the total number of pages in the pool.
Depending on the argument passed, it counts highmem pages in or not.
This commit simplifies the code lines for better readability.

There are certain client bugs (double unmap, for example) that can cause
the handle->kmap_cnt (an unsigned int) to wrap around from zero. This
causes problems when the handle is destroyed because we have:
while (handle->kmap_cnt)
ion_handle_kmap_put(handle);
which takes a long time to complete when kmap_cnt starts at ~0 and can
result in a watchdog timeout.
WARN and bail when kmap_cnt is about to wrap around from zero.
