Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request. So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases. The patch fixes this.
The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op. Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.
See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

Bound the wait time for the ptcg_sem by using similar idea to the

Linus pointed out that other people have spent large amounts of time
and effort to optimize the layout of frequently used structures. Often
these have embedded locks, and the assumption is that a lock takes
4 bytes. Linus also pointed out how to work with the limited options

Back in January 2008 Nick Piggin implemented "ticket" spinlocks
for X86 (See commit 314cdbefd1fd0a7acf3780e9628465b77ea6a836).
IA64 implementation has a couple of differences because of the
available atomic operations ... e.g. we have no fetchadd2 instruction
that operates on a 16-bit quantity so we make ticket locks use
a 32-bit word for each of the current ticket and now-serving values.
Performance on uncontended locks is about 8% worse than the previous
implementation, but this seems a good trade for determinism in the
contended case. Performance impact on macro-level benchmarks is in
the noise.

For /proc/kcore, each arch registers its memory range by kclist_add().
In usual,
- range of physical memory
- range of vmalloc area
- text, etc...
are registered but "range of physical memory" has some troubles. It
doesn't updated at memory hotplug and it tend to include unnecessary
memory holes. Now, /proc/iomem (kernel/resource.c) includes required
physical memory range information and it's properly updated at memory
hotplug. Then, it's good to avoid using its own code(duplicating
information) and to rebuild kclist for physical memory based on
/proc/iomem.

Some 64bit arch has special segment for mapping kernel text. It should be
entried to /proc/kcore in addtion to direct-linear-map, vmalloc area.
This patch unifies KCORE_TEXT entry scattered under x86 and ia64.
I'm not familiar with other archs (mips has its own even after this patch)
but range of [_stext ..._end) is a valid area of text and it's not in
direct-map area, defining CONFIG_ARCH_PROC_KCORE_TEXT is only a necessary
thing to do.
Note: I left mips as it is now.

Presently, kclist_add() only eats start address and size as its arguments.
Considering to make kclist dynamically reconfigulable, it's necessary to
know which kclists are for System RAM and which are not.
This patch add kclist types as
KCORE_RAM
KCORE_VMALLOC
KCORE_TEXT
KCORE_OTHER
This "type" is used in a patch following this for detecting KCORE_RAM.

Add a flag for mmap that will be used to request a huge page region that
will look like anonymous memory to user space. This is accomplished by
using a file on the internal vfsmount. MAP_HUGETLB is a modifier of
MAP_ANONYMOUS and so must be specified with it. The region will behave
the same as a MAP_ANONYMOUS region using small pages.
The patch also adds the MAP_STACK flag, which was previously defined only
on some architectures but not on others. Since MAP_STACK is meant to be a
hint only, architectures can define it without assigning a specific
meaning to it.

Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:
make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install
With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.
The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.
The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]
This patch undos what Ian did in commit:
0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46
("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")
The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

The "cleanup console_print()" patch in commit

declaration into an assembly language file. Remove it.

Fixed up conflict in arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_64.c due to OF device tree
scanning having been moved and merged for the 32- and 64-bit cases. The
'needs_freset' initialization added in 6e19314cc ("PCI/powerpc: support
PCIe fundamental reset") is now in arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_of_scan.c.

Sysbench thinks SD_BALANCE_WAKE is too agressive and kbuild doesn't
really mind too much, SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE picks up most of the
slack.
On a dual socket, quad core, dual thread nehalem system:
sysbench (--num_threads=16):
SD_BALANCE_WAKE-: 13982 tx/s
SD_BALANCE_WAKE+: 15688 tx/s
kbuild (-j16):
SD_BALANCE_WAKE-: 47.648295846 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.312% )
SD_BALANCE_WAKE+: 47.608607360 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.026% )
(same within noise)

Aside from using fewer output sections and moving some data around,
the main side effect of this change is changing the alignment of some
sections. In particular:
* cachline-aligned and read_mostly data are now aligned to
SMP_CACHE_BYTES. (Previously, they were laid out consecutively after
a PAGE_SIZE alignment)
* .init.ramfs is now page-aligned, per the INIT_RAM_FS
macro. (Previously it had no explicit alignment).

It seems that start_ap doesn't need to be in a special location in the
kernel, but it references some init code so it should be in .ref.text.
Since this is the only thing in the .text.head section, eliminate
.text.head from the linker script.
