<title>locktorture: Invoke percpu_free_rwsem() to do percpu-rwsem cleanup</title>

<content type='text'>
When executing the LOCK06 locktorture scenario featuring percpu-rwsem,
the RCU callback rcu_sync_func() may still be pending after locktorture
module is removed.  This can in turn lead to the following Oops:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc00eb920
  #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
  PGD 6500a067 P4D 6500a067 PUD 6500c067 PMD 13a36c067 PTE 800000013691c163
  Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP

  Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996)

This commit avoids tis problem by adding an exit hook in lock_torture_ops
and using it to call percpu_free_rwsem() for percpu rwsem torture during
the module-cleanup function, thus ensuring that rcu_sync_func() completes
before module exits.

It is also necessary to call the exit hook if lock_torture_init()
fails half-way, so this commit also adds an -&gt;init_called field in
lock_torture_cxt to indicate that exit hook, if present, must be called.

<title>locktorture: Prevent hangs for invalid arguments</title>

If an locktorture torture-test run is given a bad kvm.sh argument, the
test will complain to the console, which is good.  What is bad is that
from the user's perspective, it will just hang for the time specified
by the --duration argument.  This commit therefore forces an immediate
kernel shutdown if a lock_torture_init()-time error occurs, thus avoiding
the appearance of a hang.  It also forces a console splat in this case
to clearly indicate the presence of an error.

Exclusive locks do not have readlock support, which means that a
locktorture run with the following module parameters will do nothing:

 torture_type=mutex_lock nwriters_stress=0 nreaders_stress=1

This commit therefore rejects this combination for exclusive locks by
returning -EINVAL during module init.

This commit adds a last_lock_release variable that tracks the time of
the last -&gt;writeunlock() call, which allows easier diagnosing of lock
hangs when using a kernel debugger.

Pull sched/fifo updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This adds the sched_set_fifo*() encapsulation APIs to remove static
  priority level knowledge from non-scheduler code.

  The three APIs for non-scheduler code to set SCHED_FIFO are:

   - sched_set_fifo()
   - sched_set_fifo_low()
   - sched_set_normal()

  These are two FIFO priority levels: default (high), and a 'low'
  priority level, plus sched_set_normal() to set the policy back to
  non-SCHED_FIFO.

  Since the changes affect a lot of non-scheduler code, we kept this in
  a separate tree"

Because SCHED_FIFO is a broken scheduler model (see previous patches)
take away the priority field, the kernel can't possibly make an
informed decision.

Effectively changes prio from 99 to 50.
