Fix a sparse warning by using rcu_dereference(). Technically this is a
bug and a sufficiently aggressive compiler could reload the `real_parent'
pointer outside the protection of the rcu lock (and access freed memory),
but I think it's pretty unlikely to happen.

Provide a generic helper for setting up an io_uring worker. Returns a task_struct so that the caller can do whatever setup is needed, then call wake_up_new_task() to kick it into gear. Add a kernel_clone_args member, io_thread, which tells copy_process() to mark the task with PF_IO_WORKER. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
The only remaining use of MAX_USER_PRIO (and USER_PRIO) is the
SCALE_PRIO() definition in the PowerPC Cell architecture's Synergistic
Processor Unit (SPU) scheduler. TASK_USER_PRIO isn't used anymore.
Commit fe443ef2ac42 ("[POWERPC] spusched: Dynamic timeslicing for
SCHED_OTHER") copied SCALE_PRIO() from the task scheduler in v2.6.23.
Commit a4ec24b48dde ("sched: tidy up SCHED_RR") removed it from the task
scheduler in v2.6.24.
Commit 3ee237dddcd8 ("sched/prio: Add 3 macros of MAX_NICE, MIN_NICE and
NICE_WIDTH in prio.h") introduced NICE_WIDTH much later.
With:
MAX_USER_PRIO = USER_PRIO(MAX_PRIO)
= MAX_PRIO - MAX_RT_PRIO
MAX_PRIO = MAX_RT_PRIO + NICE_WIDTH
MAX_USER_PRIO = MAX_RT_PRIO + NICE_WIDTH - MAX_RT_PRIO
MAX_USER_PRIO = NICE_WIDTH
MAX_USER_PRIO can be replaced by NICE_WIDTH to be able to remove all the
{*_}USER_PRIO defines.

Commit d46523ea32a7 ("[PATCH] fix MAX_USER_RT_PRIO and MAX_RT_PRIO")
was introduced due to a a small time period in which the realtime patch
set was using different values for MAX_USER_RT_PRIO and MAX_RT_PRIO.
This is no longer true, i.e. now MAX_RT_PRIO == MAX_USER_RT_PRIO.
Get rid of MAX_USER_RT_PRIO and make everything use MAX_RT_PRIO
instead.

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These update the CPPC cpufreq driver and intel_pstate (which involves
updating the cpufreq core and the schedutil governor) and make
janitorial changes in the ACPI code handling processor objects.
Specifics:
- Rework the passive-mode "fast switch" path in the intel_pstate
driver to allow it receive the minimum (required) and target
(desired) performance information from the schedutil governor so as
to avoid running some workloads too fast (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make the intel_pstate driver allow the policy max limit to be
increased after the guaranteed performance value for the given CPU
has increased (Rafael Wysocki).
- Clean up the handling of CPU coordination types in the CPPC cpufreq
driver and make it export frequency domains information to user
space via sysfs (Ionela Voinescu).
- Fix the ACPI code handling processor objects to use a correct
coordination type when it fails to map frequency domains and drop a
redundant CPU map initialization from it (Ionela Voinescu, Punit
Agrawal)"

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe: "This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work. Here we convert the rest of the archs to support TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand wait queue head lock. The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be. Roman Gershman <romger@amazon.com> reported that his networked workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there [1]. There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead. Hopefully this will also lead to more consolidation, but the work stands on its own as well" [1] https://github.com/axboe/liburing/issues/215 * tag 'tif-task_work.arch-2020-12-14' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (28 commits) io_uring: remove 'twa_signal_ok' deadlock work-around kernel: remove checking for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL signal: kill JOBCTL_TASK_WORK io_uring: JOBCTL_TASK_WORK is no longer used by task_work task_work: remove legacy TWA_SIGNAL path sparc: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL riscv: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL nds32: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL ia64: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL h8300: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL c6x: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL alpha: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL xtensa: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL arm: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL microblaze: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL hexagon: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL csky: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL openrisc: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL sh: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL um: add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL ...

Extracted from slab.h, which seems to have the most complete version including the correct might_sleep() check. Roll it out to slob.c. Motivated by a discussion with Paul about possibly changing call_rcu behaviour to allocate memory, but only roughly every 500th call. There are a lot fewer places in the kernel that care about whether allocating memory is allowed or not (due to deadlocks with reclaim code) than places that care whether sleeping is allowed. But debugging these also tends to be a lot harder, so nice descriptive checks could come in handy. I might have some use eventually for annotations in drivers/gpu. Note that unlike fs_reclaim_acquire/release gfpflags_allow_blocking does not consult the PF_MEMALLOC flags. But there is no flag equivalent for GFP_NOWAIT, hence this check can't go wrong due to memalloc_no*_save/restore contexts. Willy is working on a patch series which might change this: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20200625113122.7540-7-willy@infradead.org/ I think best would be if that updates gfpflags_allow_blocking(), since there's a ton of callers all over the place for that already.
