mm: pass correct mm when growing stack
Tetsuo Handa reports seeing the WARN_ON(current->mm == NULL) in
security_vm_enough_memory(), when do_execve() is touching the
target mm's stack, to set up its args and environment.
Yes, a UMH_NO_WAIT or UMH_WAIT_PROC call_usermodehelper() spawns
an mm-less kernel thread to do the exec. And in any case, that
vm_enough_memory check when growing stack ought to be done on the
target mm, not on the execer's mm (though apart from the warning,
it only makes a slight tweak to OVERCOMMIT_NEVER behaviour).

Revert "kobject: don't block for each kobject_uevent".
This reverts commit
f520360d93cdc37de5d972dac4bf3bdef6a7f6a7.
Tetsuo Handa, running a kernel with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y and
CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH=/sbin/hotplug, has been hitting RCU detected
CPU stalls: it's been spinning in the loop where do_execve() counts up
the args (but why wasn't fixup_exception working? dunno).
The recent change, switching kobject_uevent_env() from UMH_WAIT_EXEC
to UMH_NO_WAIT, is broken: the exec uses args on the local stack here,
and an env which is kfreed as soon as call_usermodehelper() returns.
It very much needs to wait for the exec to be done.
An alternative would be to keep the UMH_NO_WAIT, and complicate the code
to allocate and free these resources correctly? but no, as GregKH
pointed out when making the commit, CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH="" is a
much better optimization - though some distros are still saying
/sbin/hotplug in their .config, yet with no such binary in their initrd
or their root.

x86: UV BAU distribution and payload MMRs
This patch correctly sets BAU memory mapped registers to point
to the sending activation descriptor table and target payload table.
The "Broadcast Assist Unit" is used for TLB shootdown in UV.
The memory mapped registers that point to sending and receiving
memory structures contain node numbers.
In one case the __pa() function did not provide the node id of
memory on blade zero in configurations where that id is nonzero.
In another case, it was assumed that memory was allocated on
the local node. That assumption is not true in a configuration
in which the node has no memory.
Tested on the UV hardware simulator.

acpi-cpufreq: fix 'smp_call_function_many()' confusion
It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.
My bad.
'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):
(a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.
(b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
call on that CPU.
Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel. So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

cfq-iosched: add close cooperator code
If we have processes that are working in close proximity to each
other on disk, we don't want to idle wait. Instead allow the close
process to issue a request, getting better aggregate bandwidth.
The anticipatory scheduler has similar checks, noop and deadline do
not need it since they don't care about process <-> io mappings.
The code for CFQ is a little more involved though, since we split
request queues into per-process contexts.
This fixes a performance problem with eg dump(8), since it uses
several processes in some silly attempt to speed IO up. Even if
dump(8) isn't really a valid case (it should be fixed by using
CLONE_IO), there are other cases where we see close processes
and where idling ends up hurting performance.

initial implementation.

splice: add helpers for locking pipe inode
There are lots of sequences like this, especially in splice code:
if (pipe->inode)
mutex_lock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex);
/* do something */
if (pipe->inode)
mutex_unlock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex);
so introduce helpers which do the conditional locking and unlocking.
Also replace the inode_double_lock() call with a pipe_double_lock()
helper to avoid spreading the use of this functionality beyond the
pipe code.
This patch is just a cleanup, and should cause no behavioral changes.

splice: remove generic_file_splice_write_nolock()
Remove the now unused generic_file_splice_write_nolock() function.
It's conceptually broken anyway, because splice may need to wait for
pipe events so holding locks across the whole operation is wrong.

splice: split up __splice_from_pipe()
Split up __splice_from_pipe() into four helper functions:
splice_from_pipe_begin()
splice_from_pipe_next()
splice_from_pipe_feed()
splice_from_pipe_end()
splice_from_pipe_next() will wait (if necessary) for more buffers to
be added to the pipe. splice_from_pipe_feed() will feed the buffers
to the supplied actor and return when there's no more data available
(or if all of the requested data has been copied).
This is necessary so that implementations can do locking around the
non-waiting splice_from_pipe_feed().
This patch should not cause any change in behavior.
