On non-developer devices kgdb prevents CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT from
rebooting the device after a panic. Add module parameters
debug_core.break_on_exception and debug_core.break_on_panic to
allow skipping debug on panics and exceptions respectively. Both
default to true to preserve existing behavior.

kdb expects carriage returns through the serial port to terminate
commands. Modify it to accept the first seen carriage return or
new line as a terminator, but not treat \r\n as two terminators.

This patch adds a notifier which can be used by subsystems that may
be interested in when a task has completely died and is about to
have it's last resource freed.
The Android lowmemory killer uses this to determine when a task
it has killed has finally given up its goods.

By default the kernel tries to keep half as much memory free at each
order as it does for one order below. This can be too agressive when
running without swap.

Rather than using explicit euid == 0 checks when trying to move
tasks into a cgroup via CFS, move permission checks into each
specific cgroup subsystem. If a subsystem does not specify a
'allow_attach' handler, then we fall back to doing our checks
the old way.
Use the 'allow_attach' handler for the 'cpu' cgroup to allow
non-root processes to add arbitrary processes to a 'cpu' cgroup
if it has the CAP_SYS_NICE capability set.
This version of the patch adds a 'allow_attach' handler instead
of reusing the 'can_attach' handler. If the 'can_attach' handler
is reused, a new cgroup that implements 'can_attach' but not
the permission checks could end up with no permission checks
at all.

At times, it is necessary for boards to provide some additional information
as part of panic logs. Provide information on the board hardware as part
of panic logs.
It is safer to print this information at the very end in case something
bad happens as part of the information retrieval itself.
To use this, set global mach_panic_string to an appropriate string in the
board file.

The recent modification in the cpuidle framework consolidated the
timer broadcast code across the different drivers by setting a new
flag in the idle state. It tells the cpuidle core code to enter/exit
the broadcast mode for the cpu when entering a deep idle state. The
broadcast timer enter/exit is no longer handled by the back-end
driver.
This change made the local interrupt to be enabled *before* calling
CLOCK_EVENT_NOTIFY_EXIT.
On a tegra114, a four cores system, when the flag has been introduced
in the driver, the following warning appeared:
WARNING: at kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c:578 tick_broadcast_oneshot_control

I don't have the hardware, so I wasn't able to reproduce the warning
but after looking a while at the code, I deduced the following:
1. the CPU2 enters a deep idle state and sets the broadcast timer
2. the timer expires, the tick_handle_oneshot_broadcast function is
called, setting the tick_broadcast_pending_mask and waking up the
idle cpu CPU2
3. the CPU2 exits idle handles the interrupt and then invokes
tick_broadcast_oneshot_control with CLOCK_EVENT_NOTIFY_EXIT which
runs the following code:
[...]
if (dev->next_event.tv64 == KTIME_MAX)
goto out;
if (cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(cpu,
tick_broadcast_pending_mask))
goto out;
[...]
So if there is no next event scheduled for CPU2, we fulfil the
first condition and jump out without clearing the
tick_broadcast_pending_mask.
4. CPU2 goes to deep idle again and calls
tick_broadcast_oneshot_control with CLOCK_NOTIFY_EVENT_ENTER but
with the tick_broadcast_pending_mask set for CPU2, triggering the
warning.
The issue only surfaced due to the modifications of the cpuidle
framework, which resulted in interrupts being enabled before the call
to the clockevents code. If the call happens before interrupts have
been enabled, the warning cannot trigger, because there is still the
event pending which caused the broadcast timer expiry.
Move the check for the next event below the check for the pending bit,
so the pending bit gets cleared whether an event is scheduled on the
cpu or not.
