d773ed6b85 mm: test and set zone reclaim lock before starting reclaim
Introduces new zone flag interface for testing and setting flags:

	int zone_test_and_set_flag(struct zone *zone, zone_flags_t flag)

Instead of setting and clearing ZONE_RECLAIM_LOCKED each time shrink_zone() is
called, this flag is test and set before starting zone reclaim.  Zone reclaim
starts in __alloc_pages() when a zone's watermark fails and the system is in
zone_reclaim_mode.  If it's already in reclaim, there's no need to start again
so it is simply considered full for that allocation attempt.

There is a change of behavior with regard to concurrent zone shrinking.  It is
now possible for try_to_free_pages() or kswapd to already be shrinking a
particular zone when __alloc_pages() starts zone reclaim.  In this case, it is
possible for two concurrent threads to invoke shrink_zone() for a single zone.

This change forbids a zone to be in zone reclaim twice, which was always the
behavior, but allows for concurrent try_to_free_pages() or kswapd shrinking
when starting zone reclaim.

bbe373f2c6 oom: compare cpuset mems_allowed instead of exclusive ancestors
Instead of testing for overlap in the memory nodes of the the nearest
exclusive ancestor of both current and the candidate task, it is better to
simply test for intersection between the task's mems_allowed in their task
descriptors.  This does not require taking callback_mutex since it is only
used as a hint in the badness scoring.

Tasks that do not have an intersection in their mems_allowed with the current
task are not explicitly restricted from being OOM killed because it is quite
possible that the candidate task has allocated memory there before and has
since changed its mems_allowed.

098d7f128a oom: add per-zone locking
OOM killer synchronization should be done with zone granularity so that memory
policy and cpuset allocations may have their corresponding zones locked and
allow parallel kills for other OOM conditions that may exist elsewhere in the
system.  DMA allocations can be targeted at the zone level, which would not be
possible if locking was done in nodes or globally.

Synchronization shall be done with a variation of "trylocks." The goal is to
put the current task to sleep and restart the failed allocation attempt later
if the trylock fails.  Otherwise, the OOM killer is invoked.

Each zone in the zonelist that __alloc_pages() was called with is checked for
the newly-introduced ZONE_OOM_LOCKED flag.  If any zone has this flag present,
the "trylock" to serialize the OOM killer fails and returns zero.  Otherwise,
all the zones have ZONE_OOM_LOCKED set and the try_set_zone_oom() function
returns non-zero.

e815af95f9 oom: change all_unreclaimable zone member to flags
Convert the int all_unreclaimable member of struct zone to unsigned long
flags.  This can now be used to specify several different zone flags such as
all_unreclaimable and reclaim_in_progress, which can now be removed and
converted to a per-zone flag.

Flags are set and cleared as follows:

	zone_set_flag(struct zone *zone, zone_flags_t flag)
	zone_clear_flag(struct zone *zone, zone_flags_t flag)

Defines the first zone flags, ZONE_ALL_UNRECLAIMABLE and ZONE_RECLAIM_LOCKED,
which have the same semantics as the old zone->all_unreclaimable and
zone->reclaim_in_progress, respectively.  Also converts all current users that
set or clear either flag to use the new interface.

Helper functions are defined to test the flags:

	int zone_is_all_unreclaimable(const struct zone *zone)
	int zone_is_reclaim_locked(const struct zone *zone)

All flag operators are of the atomic variety because there are currently
readers that are implemented that do not take zone->lock.

3e26c149c3 mm: dirty balancing for tasks
Based on ideas of Andrew:
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=102912915020543&w=2

Scale the bdi dirty limit inversly with the tasks dirty rate.
This makes heavy writers have a lower dirty limit than the occasional writer.

Andrea proposed something similar:
  http://lwn.net/Articles/152277/

The main disadvantage to his patch is that he uses an unrelated quantity to
measure time, which leaves him with a workload dependant tunable. Other than
that the two approaches appear quite similar.

04fbfdc14e mm: per device dirty threshold
Scale writeback cache per backing device, proportional to its writeout speed.

By decoupling the BDI dirty thresholds a number of problems we currently have
will go away, namely:

 - mutual interference starvation (for any number of BDIs);
 - deadlocks with stacked BDIs (loop, FUSE and local NFS mounts).

It might be that all dirty pages are for a single BDI while other BDIs are
idling. By giving each BDI a 'fair' share of the dirty limit, each one can have
dirty pages outstanding and make progress.

A global threshold also creates a deadlock for stacked BDIs; when A writes to
B, and A generates enough dirty pages to get throttled, B will never start
writeback until the dirty pages go away. Again, by giving each BDI its own
'independent' dirty limit, this problem is avoided.

So the problem is to determine how to distribute the total dirty limit across
the BDIs fairly and efficiently. A DBI that has a large dirty limit but does
not have any dirty pages outstanding is a waste.

What is done is to keep a floating proportion between the DBIs based on
writeback completions. This way faster/more active devices get a larger share
than slower/idle devices.

145ca25eb2 lib: floating proportions
Given a set of objects, floating proportions aims to efficiently give the
proportional 'activity' of a single item as compared to the whole set. Where
'activity' is a measure of a temporal property of the items.

It is efficient in that it need not inspect any other items of the set
in order to provide the answer. It is not even needed to know how many
other items there are.

It has one parameter, and that is the period of 'time' over which the
'activity' is measured.

machines, because the promotion rules zero extend the unsigned number.

Provide percpu_counter_sub() to hide the s64 cast. That is:
  percpu_counter_sub(&counter, foo)
is equal to:
  percpu_counter_add(&counter, -(s64)foo);

c4dc4beed2 nfs: remove congestion_end()
These patches aim to improve balance_dirty_pages() and directly address three
issues:
  1) inter device starvation
  2) stacked device deadlocks
  3) inter process starvation

1 and 2 are a direct result from removing the global dirty limit and using
per device dirty limits. By giving each device its own dirty limit is will
no longer starve another device, and the cyclic dependancy on the dirty limit
is broken.

In order to efficiently distribute the dirty limit across the independant
devices a floating proportion is used, this will allocate a share of the total
limit proportional to the device's recent activity.

3 is done by also scaling the dirty limit proportional to the current task's
recent dirty rate.

This patch:

nfs: remove congestion_end().  It's redundant, clear_bdi_congested() already
wakes the waiters.

1f7d6668c2 powerpc: add Altivec/VMX state to coredumps
Update dump_task_altivec() (which has so far never been put to use) so that
it dumps the Altivec/VMX registers (VR[0] - VR[31], VSCR and VRSAVE) in the
same format as the ptrace get_vrregs(), and add the appropriate glue
typedef and #defines to make it work.

A new note type of NT_PPC_VMX was chosen to be 0x100 (arbitrarily) because
it allows the low range values to be used for more generic purposes and
0x100 seems an adequate starting point for PowerPC extensions.

5b20cd80b4 x86: replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE #define
Replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE in the coredump code which
allows for more flexibility in the note type for the state of 'extended
floating point' implementations in coredumps.  New note types can now be
added with an appropriate #define.

This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be NT_PRXFPREG in all
current users so there's are no change in behaviour.

This will let us use different note types on powerpc for the Altivec/VMX
state that some PowerPC cpus have (G4, PPC970, POWER6) and for the SPE
(signal processing extension) state that some embedded PowerPC cpus from
Freescale have.

	o __lookup_hash_kern is renamed back to __lookup_hash
	o the old __lookup_hash goes away, permission checks moves to
	  the two callers
	o useless inline qualifiers on above functions go away
 - lookup_one_len_kern loses it's last argument and is renamed to
   lookup_one_noperm to make it's useage a little more clear
 - added kerneldoc comments to describe lookup_one_len aswell as
   lookup_one_noperm and make it very clear that no one should use
   the latter ever.

788e7dd4c2 SELinux: Improve read/write performance
It reduces the selinux overhead on read/write by only revalidating
permissions in selinux_file_permission if the task or inode labels have
changed or the policy has changed since the open-time check.  A new LSM
hook, security_dentry_open, is added to capture the necessary state at open
time to allow this optimization.

a64408b96b firewire: adopt read cycle timer ABI from raw1394
This duplicates the read cycle timer feature of raw1394 (added in Linux
2.6.21) in firewire-core's userspace ABI.  The argument to the ioctl is
reordered though to ensure 32/64 bit compatibility.

c223701cf6 ide: add "hdx=nodma" kernel parameter
* Add "hdx=nodma" option allowing user to disallow DMA for a given device.

* Obsolete "ide=nodma" option.

9ff6f72f43 ide: remove hwif->autodma and drive->autodma
* hpt34x.c: disable DMA masks for HPT345
  (hwif->autodma is zero so DMA won't be enabled anyway).

* trm290.c: disable IDE_HFLAG_TRUST_BIOS_FOR_DMA flag
  (hwif->autodma is zero so DMA won't be enabled anyway).

* Check noautodma global variable instead of drive->autodma in ide_tune_dma().

  This fixes handling of "ide=nodma" kernel parameter for icside, ide-cris,
  au1xxx-ide, pmac, it821x, jmicron, sgiioc4 and siimage host drivers.

* Remove hwif->autodma (it was not checked by IDE core code anyway) and
  drive->autodma (was set by all host drivers - except HPT345/TRM290 special
  cases - unless "ide=nodma" was used).

While at it:
- remove needless printk() from icside.c
- remove stale FIXME/comment from ide-probe.c
- don't force DMA off if PCI bus-mastering had to be enabled in setup-pci.c
  (this setting was always later over-ridden by host drivers anyway)

0ae2e17865 ide: remove ->ide_dma_check (take 2)
* Add IDE_HFLAG_TRUST_BIOS_FOR_DMA host flag for host drivers that depend
  on BIOS for programming device/controller for DMA.  Set it in cy82c693,
  generic, ns87415, opti621 and trm290 host drivers.

* Add IDE_HFLAG_VDMA host flag for host drivers using VDMA.  Set it in cs5520
  host driver.

* Teach ide_tune_dma() about IDE_HFLAG_TRUST_BIOS_FOR_DMA flag.

* Add generic ide_dma_check() helper and remove all open coded ->ide_dma_check
  implementations.  Fix all places checking for presence of ->ide_dma_check
  hook to check for ->ide_dma_on instead.

* Remove no longer needed code from config_drive_for_dma().

* Make ide_tune_dma() static.

v2:
* Fix config_drive_for_dma() return values.

* Fix ide-dma.c build for CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PCI=n by adding
  dummy config_drive_for_dma() inline.

* Fix IDE_HFLAG_TRUST_BIOS_FOR_DMA handling in ide_dma_check().

* Fix init_hwif_it8213() comment.

There should be no functionality changes caused by this patch.

65c9cd23ca ide: remove ide_use_fast_pio()
Remove ide_use_fast_pio() and just re-tune PIO unconditionally if DMA tuning
has failed in ->ide_dma_check.  All host drivers using ide_use_fast_pio() set
drive->autotune so PIO is always tuned anyway and in some cases we _really_
need to re-tune PIO because PIO and DMA timings are shared.
