This patch add the fundamental facility used by the following patches, so we
can implement the 'CPU units sequence reading' later.
This helps us avoid losing data when there are too many CPUs and too
small of a buffer, since this new approach allows userspace to read out
the data one CPU at a time. Thus, if the buffer is not large enough,
userspace will get whatever CPUs fit, and can then issue another read
for the remainder of the data.

This patch will create subdirectory according to each flavor of rcu, the new
structure will be:
/debugfs/rcu/ -> rsp_0
-> rsp_1
-> ...
So we can go to '/debugfs/rcu/rsp_0' and get the cpu info of rsp_0 there.
The flavors of RCU are currently rcu_bh, rcu_preempt, and rcu_sched.

Tracing (debugfs) of expedited RCU primitives is required, which in turn
requires that the relevant data be located where the tracing code can find
it, not in its current static global variables in kernel/rcutree.c.
This commit therefore moves sync_sched_expedited_started and
sync_sched_expedited_done to the rcu_state structure, as fields
->expedited_start and ->expedited_done, respectively.

There is a counter scheme similar to ticket locking that
synchronize_sched_expedited() uses to service multiple concurrent
callers with the same expedited grace period. Upon entry, a
sync_sched_expedited_started variable is atomically incremented,
and upon completion of a expedited grace period a separate
sync_sched_expedited_done variable is atomically incremented.
However, if a synchronize_sched_expedited() is delayed while
in try_stop_cpus(), concurrent invocations will increment the
sync_sched_expedited_started counter, which will eventually overflow.
If the original synchronize_sched_expedited() resumes execution just
as the counter overflows, a concurrent invocation could incorrectly
conclude that an expedited grace period elapsed in zero time, which
would be bad. One could rely on counter size to prevent this from
happening in practice, but the goal is to formally validate this
code, so it needs to be fixed anyway.
This commit therefore checks the gap between the two counters before
incrementing sync_sched_expedited_started, and if the gap is too
large, does a normal grace period instead. Overflow is thus only
possible if there are more than about 3.5 billion threads on 32-bit
systems, which can be excluded until such time as task_struct fits
into a single byte and 4G/4G patches are accepted into mainline.
It is also easy to encode this limitation into mechanical theorem
provers.

The ->onofflock field in the rcu_state structure at one time synchronized
CPU-hotplug operations for RCU. However, its scope has decreased over time
so that it now only protects the lists of orphaned RCU callbacks. This
commit therefore renames it to ->orphan_lock to reflect its current use.

In the old days, _rcu_barrier() acquired ->onofflock to exclude
rcu_send_cbs_to_orphanage(), which allowed the latter to avoid memory
barriers in callback handling. However, _rcu_barrier() recently started
doing get_online_cpus() to lock out CPU-hotplug operations entirely, which
means that the comment in rcu_send_cbs_to_orphanage() that talks about
->onofflock is now obsolete. This commit therefore fixes the comment.

Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the
signature data instead of before it. This allows module_sig_check() to
be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the
magic string. Instead we just need to do a single memcmp().
This works because at the end of the signature data there is the
fixed-length signature information block. This block then falls
immediately prior to the magic number.
From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate
the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module
data.

free_pid_ns() operates in a recursive fashion:
free_pid_ns(parent)
put_pid_ns(parent)
kref_put(&ns->kref, free_pid_ns);
free_pid_ns
thus if there was a huge nesting of namespaces the userspace may trigger
avalanche calling of free_pid_ns leading to kernel stack exhausting and a
panic eventually.
This patch turns the recursion into an iterative loop.
Based on a patch by Andrew Vagin.
