From the code in rt_mutex_setprio(), it is evident that the
intention is that task's with a RT 'prio' value as a consequence
of receiving a PI boost also have their 'sched_class' field set
to '&rt_sched_class'.
However, Peter noticed that the code in __setscheduler() could
result in this intention being frustrated. Fix it.

When waking affine, check for an idle shared cache, and if
found, wake to that CPU/sibling instead of the waker's CPU.
This improves pgsql+oltp ramp up by roughly 8%. Possibly more
for other loads, depending on overlap. The trade-off is a
roughly 1% peak downturn if tasks are truly synchronous.

Currently partition_sched_domains() takes a 'struct cpumask
*doms_new' which is a kmalloc'ed array of cpumask_t. You can't
have such an array if 'struct cpumask' is undefined, as we plan
for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y.
So, we make this an array of cpumask_var_t instead: this is the
same for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n case, but requires
multiple allocations for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y case.
Hence we add alloc_sched_domains() and free_sched_domains()
functions.

find_lowest_rq() wants to call pick_optimal_cpu() on the
intersection of sched_domain_span(sd) and lowest_mask. Rather
than doing a cpus_and into a temporary, we can open-code it.
This actually makes the code slightly clearer, IMHO.

Increase TEST_SUSPEND_SECONDS to 10 so the warning in
suspend_test_finish() doesn't annoy the users of slower systems so much.
Also, make the warning print the suspend-resume cycle time, so that we
know why the warning actually triggered.
Patch prepared during the hacking session at the Kernel Summit in Tokyo.

oprofile: warn on freeing event buffer too early
oprofile: fix race condition in event_buffer free
lockdep: Use cpu_clock() for lockstat
It basically turns a delayed work into an immediate work, and then waits
for it to finish, thus allowing you to force (and wait for) an immediate
flush of a delayed work.
We'll want to use this in the tty layer to clean up tty_flush_to_ldisc().

Trigger because new parameters were added to update_rq_clock() and

In try_to_wake_up(), we update the runqueue clock, but
select_task_rq() may select a different runqueue than the one we
updated, leaving the new runqueue's clock stale for a bit.
This patch cures occasional huge latencies reported by latencytop
when coming out of idle on a mostly idle NO_HZ box.
