nmi_cpu_setup() is called from hardirq context and acquires oprofilefs_lock.
alloc_event_buffer() and oprofilefs_ulong_from_user() acquire this lock
without disabling irqs, which could deadlock.

Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const".  Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data.  In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

- Move capable() from sched.h to capability.h;

- Use &lt;linux/capability.h&gt; where capable() is used
	(in include/, block/, ipc/, kernel/, a few drivers/,
	mm/, security/, &amp; sound/;
	many more drivers/ to go)

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
