Fixed up conflicts in drivers/serial/apbuart.c with evil merge that
makes the code look fairly sane (unlike either side).
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:
- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
page lock to follow page->mapping.
The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.
In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.
The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we already
held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that point).
However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never hold it at any
caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already have well working lazy
dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU manipulations to scan time.

Protect d_unhashed(dentry) condition with d_lock. This means keeping
DCACHE_UNHASHED bit in synch with hash manipulations.

Make d_count non-atomic and protect it with d_lock. This allows us to ensure a
0 refcount dentry remains 0 without dcache_lock. It is also fairly natural when
we start protecting many other dentry members with d_lock.

Extend the perf_pmu_register() interface to allow for named and
dynamic pmu types.
Because we need to support the existing static types we cannot use
dynamic types for everything, hence provide a type argument.
If we want to enumerate the PMUs they need a name, provide one.

The perf hardware pmu got initialized at various points in the boot,
some before early_initcall() some after (notably arch_initcall).
The problem is that the NMI lockup detector is ran from early_initcall()
and expects the hardware pmu to be present.
Sanitize this by moving all architecture hardware pmu implementations to
initialize at early_initcall() and move the lockup detector to an explicit
initcall right after that.

This appears to be due to checking the wrong permission bits in the
instruction_tlb_miss handling if the address that faulted was in vmalloc
space. We need to look at the supervisor execute (_PAGE_BAP_SX) bit and
not the user bit (_PAGE_BAP_UX/_PAGE_EXEC).
Also removed a branch level since it did not appear to be used.

powerpc/mm: Fix pgtable cache cleanup with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
commit d28513bc7f
Author: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
subpage_protection() was changed to to take an mm rather a pgdir but it
didn't change calling site in hashpage_preload(). The change wasn't
noticed at compile time since hashpage_preload() used a void* as the
parameter to subpage_protection().
This is obviously wrong and can trigger the following crash when
CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES
CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT are enabled.

EEH and pci_dlpar #undef DEBUG, but I think they were added before the
ability to control this from Kconfig. It's really annoying to only get
some of the debug messages from these files. Leave the lpar.c #undef
alone as it produces so much output as to make the kernel unusable.
Update the Kconfig text to indicate this particular quirk :)
