The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that
the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped.

Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to
tell about their support for this ability.

There's no need to have an architecture version of scatterlist.h if the
only thing the file does is include asm-generic/scatterlist.h.  Switch to
the asm-generic versions directly.

'COUNTER' and other same kind macros are too common to use, and easy to
get conflict with other modules.

At present, they are not used, so it is OK to simply remove them.  And

<title>arch, locking: Ciao arch_mutex_cpu_relax()</title>
<updated>2014-07-17T10:32:47+00:00</updated>

<id>3a6bfbc91df04b081a44d419e0260bad54abddf7</id>
<content type='text'>
The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.

This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency  ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.

This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency  ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

Many architectures have a stub cputime.h that only include the default
cputime.h

Lets remove the useless headers, we only need to mention that we want
the default headers on the Kbuild files.

This patch allows each architecture to add its specific assembly optimized
arch_mcs_spin_lock_contended and arch_mcs_spinlock_uncontended for
MCS lock and unlock functions.
