commit 53974e06603977f348ed978d75c426b0532daa67 upstream.

The topology_##name() macro does not use its argument when CONFIG_SMP is not
set, as it ultimately calls the cpu_data() macro.

So we avoid maintaining a possibly unused `cpu' variable, to avoid the
following compilation warning:

  drivers/base/topology.c: In function ‘show_physical_package_id’:
  drivers/base/topology.c:103:118: warning: unused variable ‘cpu’ [-Wunused-variable]
   define_id_show_func(physical_package_id);

  drivers/base/topology.c: In function ‘show_core_id’:
  drivers/base/topology.c:106:106: warning: unused variable ‘cpu’ [-Wunused-variable]
   define_id_show_func(core_id);

This can be seen with e.g. x86 defconfig and CONFIG_SMP not set.

<title>cpu topology: remove stale arch_provides_topology_pointers and define_siblings_show_map/list()</title>

<content type='text'>
arch_provides_topology_pointers was introduced in commit 23ca4bba3 (x86:
cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4) to indicate pointers to the
topology cpumask_t maps are valid to avoid copying data on to/off of the
stack.

But later in commit fbd59a8d (cpumask: Use topology_core_cpumask()/
topology_thread_cpumask()), the pointers to the topology struct cpumask maps
are always valid.

After that commit, the only difference is that there is a redundant
"unsigned int cpu = dev-&gt;id;" if arch_provides_topology_pointers defined, but
dev-&gt;id is type 'u32' which devolves to 'unsigned int' on all supported arches.
So this arch_provides_topology_pointers define is pointless and only cause
obfuscation now, remove it.

Tested on x86 machine, topology information in sys/devices/system/cpu/
cpuX/topology/ is the same after appling this patch set.

<title>drivers: delete __cpuinit usage from all remaining drivers files</title>

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the remaining one-off uses of the __cpuinit macros
from all C files in the drivers/* directory.

<title>cpu: convert 'cpu' and 'machinecheck' sysdev_class to a regular subsystem</title>

This moves the 'cpu sysdev_class' over to a regular 'cpu' subsystem
and converts the devices to regular devices. The sysdev drivers are
implemented as subsystem interfaces now.

After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

<title>topology/sysfs: Provide book id and siblings attributes</title>

Create attributes:

 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/book_id
 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/book_siblings

which show the book id and the book siblings of a cpu.

Unlike the attributes for SMT and MC these attributes are only present if
CONFIG_SCHED_BOOK is set. There is no reason to pollute sysfs for every
architecture with unused attributes.

Due to changeset ba84be2338d3a2b6020d39279335bb06fcd332e1 ("remove
linux/hardirq.h from asm-generic/local.h") the sparc64 build started
failing on drivers/base/topology.c:

  drivers/base/topology.c: In function ‘show_physical_package_id’:
  drivers/base/topology.c:103: error: implicit declaration of function ‘cpu_data’
  drivers/base/topology.c:103: error: request for member ‘proc_id’ in something not a structure or union
  drivers/base/topology.c: In function ‘show_core_id’:
  drivers/base/topology.c:106: error: request for member ‘core_id’ in something not a structure or union

Adding the obvious fix of including asm/cpudata.h into asm/topology.h on
sparc64 doesn't fix it, in fact it makes things worse because of the
header file dependency chain:

	linux/gfp.h --&gt; linux/mmzone.h --&gt; linux/topology.h --&gt;
	asm/topology.h --&gt; asm/cpudata.h --&gt; linux/percpu.h --&gt;
	linux/slab.h

which results in:

  include/linux/slub_def.h: In function ‘kmalloc_large’:
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: implicit declaration of function ‘__get_free_pages’
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: ‘__GFP_COMP’ undeclared (first use in this function)

  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: error: for each function it appears in.)
  include/linux/slub_def.h:209: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size

The simplest thing to do is to add yet another one-off hack like parts
of the guilty changeset did, by putting an explicit linux/hardirq.h

Impact: change calling convention of existing cpumask APIs

Most cpumask functions started with cpus_: these have been replaced by
cpumask_ ones which take struct cpumask pointers as expected.

These four functions don't have good replacement names; fortunately
they're rarely used, so we just change them over.

This allow to dynamically generate attributes and share show/store
functions between attributes. Right now most attributes are generated
by special macros and lots of duplicated code. With the attribute
passed it's instead possible to attach some data to the attribute
and then use that in shared low level functions to do different things.

I need this for the dynamically generated bank attributes in the x86
machine check code, but it'll allow some further cleanups.

I converted all users in tree to the new show/store prototype. It's a single
huge patch to avoid unbisectable sections.

Runtime tested: x86-32, x86-64
Compiled only: ia64, powerpc
Not compile tested/only grep converted: sh, arm, avr32
