there's a few places that currently loop over driver_probe_done(), and
I'm about to add another one. This patch abstracts it into a helper
to reduce duplication.

Sometimes it happens that KConfig dependencies are not handled
like in the following scenario:
- config A
bool
- config B
bool
depends on A
- config C
bool
select B
If one selects C, then it will select B without checking its
dependency to A, if A hasn't been selected elsewhere, it will
result in a build failure.
This is what happens on the following build error:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `marker_update_probe_range':
(.text+0x52f64): undefined reference to `tracepoint_probe_register_noupdate'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `marker_update_probe_range':
(.text+0x52f74): undefined reference to `tracepoint_probe_unregister_noupdate'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `marker_update_probe_range':

kernel/built-in.o: In function `marker_update_probes':
marker.c:(.text+0x530ba): undefined reference to `tracepoint_probe_update_all'
CONFIG_KVM_TRACE will select CONFIG_MARKER, but the latter
depends on CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS which will not be selected.

Config and control variable for mem+swap controller.
This patch adds CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
(memory resource controller swap extension.)
For accounting swap, it's obvious that we have to use additional memory to
remember "who uses swap". This adds more overhead. So, it's better to
offer "choice" to users. This patch adds 2 choices.
This patch adds 2 parameters to enable swap extension or not.
- CONFIG
- boot option

Support XIP on files unpacked from the initramfs image on NOMMU systems. This
simply requires the length of the file to be preset so that the ramfs fs can
attempt to garner sufficient contiguous storage to store the file (NOMMU mmap
can only map contiguous RAM).
All the other bits to do XIP on initramfs files are present:
(1) ramfs's truncate attempts to allocate a contiguous run of pages when a
file is truncated upwards from nothing.
(2) ramfs sets BDI on its files to indicate direct mapping is possible, and
that its files can be mapped for read, write and exec.
(3) NOMMU mmap() will use the above bits to determine that it can do XIP.
Possibly this needs better controls, because it will _always_ try and do
XIP.
One disadvantage of this very simplistic approach is that sufficient space
will be allocated to store the whole file, and not just the bit that would be
XIP'd. To deal with this, though, the initramfs unpacker would have to be
able to parse the file contents.

Right now, most of the kernel boot is strictly synchronous, such that
various hardware delays are done sequentially.
In order to make the kernel boot faster, this patch introduces
infrastructure to allow doing some of the initialization steps
asynchronously, which will hide significant portions of the hardware delays
in practice.
In order to not change device order and other similar observables, this
patch does NOT do full parallel initialization.
Rather, it operates more in the way an out of order CPU does; the work may
be done out of order and asynchronous, but the observable effects
(instruction retiring for the CPU) are still done in the original sequence.
