Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

XFS filestreams functionality uses radix trees and the preload
functions. XFS can be built as a module and hence we need
radix_tree_preload() exported. radix_tree_preload_end() is a
static inline, so it doesn't need exporting.

<title>Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug</title>

Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

There was lots of #ifdef noise in the kernel due to hotcpu_notifier(fn,
prio) not correctly marking 'fn' as used in the !HOTPLUG_CPU case, and thus
generating compiler warnings of unused symbols, hence forcing people to add
#ifdefs.

the compiler can skip truly unused functions just fine:

    text    data     bss     dec     hex filename

<title>[PATCH] radix-tree: RCU lockless readside</title>

<id>7cf9c2c76c1a17b32f2da85b50cd4fe468ed44b5</id>
<content type='text'>
Make radix tree lookups safe to be performed without locks.  Readers are
protected against nodes being deleted by using RCU based freeing.  Readers
are protected against new node insertion by using memory barriers to ensure
the node itself will be properly written before it is visible in the radix
tree.

Each radix tree node keeps a record of their height (above leaf nodes).
This height does not change after insertion -- when the radix tree is
extended, higher nodes are only inserted in the top.  So a lookup can take
the pointer to what is *now* the root node, and traverse down it even if
the tree is concurrently extended and this node becomes a subtree of a new
root.

"Direct" pointers (tree height of 0, where root-&gt;rnode points directly to
the data item) are handled by using the low bit of the pointer to signal
whether rnode is a direct pointer or a pointer to a radix tree node.

When a reader wants to traverse the next branch, they will take a copy of
the pointer.  This pointer will be either NULL (and the branch is empty) or
non-NULL (and will point to a valid node).

The comment states: 'Setting a tag on a not-present item is a BUG.' Hence
if 'index' is larger than the maxindex; the item _cannot_ be presen; it
should also be a BUG.

Also, this allows the following statement (assume a fresh tree):

  radix_tree_tag_set(root, 16, 1);

to fail silently, but when preceded by:

  radix_tree_insert(root, 32, item);

it would BUG, because the height has been extended by the insert.

In neither case was 16 present.
