Some of the kerneldoc comments in kernel/power/hibernate.c are
outdated and some of them don't adhere to the kernel's standards.
Update them and make them look in a consistent way.

Ben Nagy reported a scalability problem with KVM/QEMU that hit very hard
a single spinlock (idr_lock) in posix-timers code, on its 48 core
machine.
Even on a 16 cpu machine (2x4x2), a single test can show 98% of cpu time
used in ticket_spin_lock, from lock_timer
Ref: http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg51526.html
Switching to RCU is quite easy, IDR being already RCU ready. idr_lock
should be locked only for an insert/delete, not a lookup.
Benchmark on a 2x4x2 machine, 16 processes calling timer_gettime().

The ordering of the clock bases is historical due to the
CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC constants. Now the hrtimer bases
have their own enumeration due to the gap between CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME. So we can be more clever as most timers end up on the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC base due to the virtue of POSIX declaring that
relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers are not affected by time changes. In
desktop environments this is slowly changing as applications switch to
absolute timers, but I've observed empty CLOCK_REALTIME bases often
enough. There is no performance penalty or overhead when
CLOCK_REALTIME timers are active, but in case they are not we don't
skip over a full cache line.

Instead of iterating over all possible timer bases avoid it by marking

Peter is concerned about the extra scan of CLOCK_REALTIME_COS in the
timer interrupt. Yes, I did not think about it, because the solution
was so elegant. I didn't like the extra list in timerfd when it was
proposed some time ago, but with a rcu based list the list walk it's
less horrible than the original global lock, which was held over the
list iteration.

Before the conversion of the NMI watchdog to perf event, the
watchdog timeout was 5 seconds. Now it is 60 seconds. For my
particular application, netbooks, 5 seconds was a better
timeout. With a short timeout, we catch faults earlier and are
able to send back a panic. With a 60 second timeout, the user is
unlikely to wait and will instead hit the power button, causing
us to lose the panic info.
This change configures the NMI period to watchdog_thresh and
sets the softlockup_thresh to watchdog_thresh * 2. In addition,
watchdog_thresh was reduced to 10 seconds as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.
