5c113fbeed fix cpu_chain section mismatch...
In commit e9fb7631eb ("cpu-hotplug: introduce cpu_notify(),
__cpu_notify(), cpu_notify_nofail()") the new helper functions access
cpu_chain.  As a result, it shouldn't be marked __cpuinitdata (via
section mismatch warning).

Alternatively, the helper functions should be forced inline, or marked
__ref or __cpuinit.  In the meantime, this patch silences the warning
the trivial way.

293a7cfeed module: fix reference to mod->percpu after freeing module.
Rafael sees a sometimes crash at precpu_modfree from kernel/module.c; it
only occurred with another (since-reverted) patch, but that patch simply
changed timing to uncover this bug, it was otherwise unrelated.

The comment about the mod being freed is self-explanatory, but neither
Tejun nor I read it.  This bug was introduced in 259354deaa, after it
had previously been fixed in 6e2b75740b.  How embarrassing.

In kernel profiling requires that we be able to allocate "local" memory
for each cpu.  Use "cpu_to_mem()" instead of "cpu_to_node()" to support
memoryless nodes.

Depends on the "numa_mem_id()" patch.

5b530fc183 panic: call console_verbose() in panic
Most distros turn the console verbosity down and that means a backtrace
after a panic never makes it to the console.  I assume we haven't seen
this because a panic is often preceeded by an oops which will have called
console_verbose.  There are however a lot of places we call panic
directly, and they are broken.

Use console_verbose like we do in the oops path to ensure a directly
called panic will print a backtrace.

f106eee100 pids: fix fork_idle() to setup ->pids correctly
copy_process(pid => &init_struct_pid) doesn't do attach_pid/etc.

It shouldn't, but this means that the idle threads run with the wrong
pids copied from the caller's task_struct. In x86 case the caller is
either kernel_init() thread or keventd.

In particular, this means that after the series of cpu_up/cpu_down an
idle thread (which never exits) can run with .pid pointing to nowhere.

Change fork_idle() to initialize idle->pids[] correctly. We only set
.pid = &init_struct_pid but do not add .node to list, INIT_TASK() does
the same for the boot-cpu idle thread (swapper).

72680a191b pids: increase pid_max based on num_possible_cpus
On a system with a substantial number of processors, the early default
pid_max of 32k will not be enough.  A system with 1664 CPU's, there are
25163 processes started before the login prompt.  It's estimated that with
2048 CPU's we will pass the 32k limit.  With 4096, we'll reach that limit
very early during the boot cycle, and processes would stall waiting for an
available pid.

This patch increases the early maximum number of pids available, and
increases the minimum number of pids that can be set during runtime.

e6bde73b07 cpu-hotplug: return better errno on cpu hotplug failure
Currently, onlining or offlining a CPU failure by one of the cpu notifiers
error always cause -EINVAL error.  (i.e.  writing 0 or 1 to
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online gets EINVAL)

To get better error reporting rather than always getting -EINVAL, This
changes cpu_notify() to return -errno value with notifier_to_errno() and
fix the callers.  Now that cpu notifiers can return encapsulate errno
value.

Currently, all cpu hotplug notifiers return NOTIFY_OK, NOTIFY_BAD, or
NOTIFY_DONE.  So cpu_notify() can returns 0 or -EPERM with this change for
now.

(notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_OK) == 0, notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_DONE) == 0,
notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_BAD) == -EPERM)

Forthcoming patches convert several cpu notifiers to return encapsulate
errno value with notifier_from_errno().

b3ac022cb9 proc: turn signal_struct->count into "int nr_threads"
No functional changes, just s/atomic_t count/int nr_threads/.

With the recent changes this counter has a single user, get_nr_threads()
And, none of its callers need the really accurate number of threads, not
to mention each caller obviously races with fork/exit.  It is only used to
report this value to the user-space, except first_tid() uses it to avoid
the unnecessary while_each_thread() loop in the unlikely case.

It is a bit sad we need a word in struct signal_struct for this, perhaps
we can change get_nr_threads() to approximate the number of threads using
signal->live and kill ->nr_threads later.

6e1be45aa6 check_unshare_flags: kill the bogus CLONE_SIGHAND/sig->count check
check_unshare_flags(CLONE_SIGHAND) adds CLONE_THREAD to *flags_ptr if the
task is multithreaded to ensure unshare_thread() will fail.

Not only this is a bit strange way to return the error, this is absolutely
meaningless.  If signal->count > 1 then sighand->count must be also > 1,
and unshare_sighand() will fail anyway.

In fact, all CLONE_THREAD/SIGHAND/VM checks inside sys_unshare() do not
look right.  Fortunately this code doesn't really work anyway.
