Before, when we only ever printed out the pointer value itself, a NULL
pointer would never cause issues and might as well be printed out as
just its numeric value.
However, with the extended %p formats, especially %pR, we might validly
want to print out resources for debugging. And sometimes they don't
even exist, and the resource pointer is just NULL. Print it out as
such, rather than oopsing.
This is a more generic version of a patch done by Trent Piepho (catching
all %p cases rather than just %pR, and using "(null)" instead of
"[NULL]" to match glibc).

They are actually alpha vs. i386/arm/m68k i.e. ecoff vs. aout.
In the only place where we actually tried to handle arm and i386/m68k in
different ways (START_DATA() in coredump handling), the arm variant
works for all of them (i386 and m68k have u.start_code set to 0).

This updates some personal info in the CREDITS file.
I'm no longer actively involved in Keyspan driver work so shouldn't
really be listed as a Maintainer here.
I do however field the occasional question on them and as I'm dropping
the misc.nu domain, want to ensure people can find me should they need
to.

Impact: cleanup
__alloc_bootmem and __alloc_bootmem_node do panic
for us in case of fail so no need for additional
checks here.

Impact: Reduce memory usage, use new API.
This is part of an effort to reduce structure sizes for machines
configured with large NR_CPUS. cpumask_t gets replaced by
cpumask_var_t, which is either struct cpumask[1] (small NR_CPUS) or
struct cpumask * (large NR_CPUS).

Impact: Reduce future system panics due to cpumask operations using NR_CPUS
Insure that code does not look at bits >= nr_cpu_ids as when cpumasks are
allocated based on nr_cpu_ids, these extra bits will not be defined.
Also some other minor updates:
* change in to use cpu accessor function set_cpu_present() instead of
directly accessing cpu_present_map w/cpu_clear() [arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c]
* use cpumask_of() instead of &cpumask_of_cpu() [arch/x86/kernel/reboot.c]
* optimize some cpu_mask_to_apicid_and functions.

Impact: prevents panic from stack overflow on numa-capable machines.
Some of the "removal of stack hogs" changes in kernel/sched.c by using
node_to_cpumask_ptr were undone by the early cpumask API updates, and
causes a panic due to stack overflow. This patch undoes those changes
by using cpumask_of_node() which returns a 'const struct cpumask *'.
In addition, cpu_coregoup_map is replaced with cpu_coregroup_mask further
reducing stack usage. (Both of these updates removed 9 FIXME's!)
Also:
Pick up some remaining changes from the old 'cpumask_t' functions to
the new 'struct cpumask *' functions.
Optimize memory traffic by allocating each percpu local_cpu_mask on the
same node as the referring cpu.
