This patch adds the capability to remove pages from a ring buffer
without destroying any existing data in it.
This is done by removing the pages after the tail page. This makes sure
that first all the empty pages in the ring buffer are removed. If the
head page is one in the list of pages to be removed, then the page after
the removed ones is made the head page. This removes the oldest data
from the ring buffer and keeps the latest data around to be read.
To do this in a non-racey manner, tracing is stopped for a very short
time while the pages to be removed are identified and unlinked from the
ring buffer. The pages are freed after the tracing is restarted to
minimize the time needed to stop tracing.
The context in which the pages from the per-cpu ring buffer are removed
runs on the respective CPU. This minimizes the events not traced to only
NMI trace contexts.

On gcc 4.5 the function tracing_mark_write() would give a warning
of page2 being uninitialized. This is due to a bug in gcc because
the logic prevents page2 from being used uninitialized, and
gcc 4.6+ does not complain (correctly).
Instead of adding a "unitialized" around page2, which could show
a bug later on, I combined page1 and page2 into an array map_pages[].
This binds the two and the two are modified according to nr_pages
(what gcc 4.5 seems to ignore). This no longer gives a warning with
gcc 4.5 nor with gcc 4.6.

We can easily use a single callback for both sched-in and sched-out. This
reduces the code footprint in the scheduler path as well as removes
the PMU black spot otherwise present between the out and in callback.

We always need to pass the last sample period to
perf_sample_data_init(), otherwise the event distribution will be
wrong. Thus, modifiyng the function interface with the required period
as argument. So basically a pattern like this:
perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL);
data.period = event->hw.last_period;
will now be like that:
perf_sample_data_init(&data, ~0ULL, event->hw.last_period);
Avoids unininitialized data.period and simplifies code.

The ftrace_disable_cpu() and ftrace_enable_cpu() functions were
needed back before the ring buffer was lockless. Now that the
ring buffer is lockless (and has been for some time), these functions
serve no purpose, and unnecessarily slow down operations of the tracer.

It's appropriate to use __seq_open_private interface to open
some of trace seq files, because it covers all steps we are
duplicating in tracing code - zallocating the iterator and
setting it as seq_file's private.
Using this for following files:

Add a debugfs entry under per_cpu/ folder for each cpu called
buffer_size_kb to control the ring buffer size for each CPU
independently.
If the global file buffer_size_kb is used to set size, the individual
ring buffers will be adjusted to the given size. The buffer_size_kb will
report the common size to maintain backward compatibility.
If the buffer_size_kb file under the per_cpu/ directory is used to
change buffer size for a specific CPU, only the size of the respective
ring buffer is updated. When tracing/buffer_size_kb is read, it reports
'X' to indicate that sizes of per_cpu ring buffers are not equivalent.

Currently, trace_printk() uses a single buffer to write into
to calculate the size and format needed to save the trace. To
do this safely in an SMP environment, a spin_lock() is taken
to only allow one writer at a time to the buffer. But this could
also affect what is being traced, and add synchronization that
would not be there otherwise.
Ideally, using percpu buffers would be useful, but since trace_printk()
is only used in development, having per cpu buffers for something
never used is a waste of space. Thus, the use of the trace_bprintk()
format section is changed to be used for static fmts as well as dynamic ones.
Then at boot up, we can check if the section that holds the trace_printk
formats is non-empty, and if it does contain something, then we
know a trace_printk() has been added to the kernel. At this time
the trace_printk per cpu buffers are allocated. A check is also
done at module load time in case a module is added that contains a
trace_printk().
Once the buffers are allocated, they are never freed. If you use
a trace_printk() then you should know what you are doing.
A buffer is made for each type of context:
normal
softirq
irq
nmi
The context is checked and the appropriate buffer is used.
This allows for totally lockless usage of trace_printk(),
and they no longer even disable interrupts.

Commit 6e6f0a1f0f ("panic: don't print redundant backtraces on oops")
causes a regression where no stack trace will be printed at all for the
case where kernel code calls panic() directly while not processing an
oops, and of course there are 100's of instances of this type of call.
The original commit executed the check (!oops_in_progress), but this will
always be false because just before the dump_stack() there is a call to
bust_spinlocks(1), which does the following:
void __attribute__((weak)) bust_spinlocks(int yes)
{
if (yes) {
++oops_in_progress;
The proper way to resolve the problem that original commit tried to
solve is to avoid printing a stack dump from panic() when the either of
the following conditions is true:
1) TAINT_DIE has been set (this is done by oops_end())
This indicates and oops has already been printed.
2) oops_in_progress > 1
This guards against the rare case where panic() is invoked
a second time, or in between oops_begin() and oops_end()

irq: Kill pointless irqd_to_hw export

This patch replaces the old global setting of irq_virq_count that is only
used by the NOMAP mapping and instead uses a revmap_data property so that
the maximum NOMAP allocation can be set per NOMAP irq_domain.
There is exactly one user of irq_virq_count in-tree right now: PS3.
Also, irq_virq_count is only useful for the NOMAP mapping. So,
instead of having a single global irq_virq_count values, this change
drops it entirely and added a max_irq argument to irq_domain_add_nomap().
That makes it a property of an individual nomap irq domain instead of
a global system settting.

In commit 4bbdd45a (irq_domain/powerpc: eliminate irq_map; use
irq_alloc_desc() instead) code was added that ignores error returns
from irq_alloc_desc_from() by (silently) casting the return value to
unsigned. The negitive value error return now suddenly looks like a
valid irq number.
Commits cc79ca69 (irq_domain: Move irq_domain code from powerpc to
kernel/irq) and 1bc04f2c (irq_domain: Add support for base irq and
hwirq in legacy mappings) move this code to its current location in
irqdomain.c
The result of all of this is a null pointer dereference OOPS if one of
the error cases is hit.

"clockevents: Leave the broadcast device in shutdown mode when not needed",
we were bailing out too quickly in tick_broadcast_switch_to_oneshot(),
with out tracking the broadcast device mode change to 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT'.
This breaks the platforms which need broadcast device oneshot services during
deep idle states. tick_broadcast_oneshot_control() thinks that it is
in periodic mode and fails to take proper decisions based on the
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_[ENTER, EXIT] notifications during deep
idle entry/exit.
Fix this by tracking the broadcast device mode as 'TICKDEV_MODE_ONESHOT',
before leaving the broadcast HW device in shutdown mode if there are no active
requests for the moment.

sysctl: fix write access to dmesg_restrict/kptr_restrict
Fix tick_nohz_restart() to not use a stale ktime_t "now" value when
calling tick_do_update_jiffies64(now).
If we reach this point in the loop it means that we crossed a tick
boundary since we grabbed the "now" timestamp, so at this point "now"
refers to a time in the old jiffy, so using the old value for "now" is
incorrect, and is likely to give us a stale jiffies value.
In particular, the first time through the loop the
tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) call is always a no-op, since the
caller, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), will have already called
tick_do_update_jiffies64(now) with that "now" value.
Note that tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() already uses the correct
approach: when we notice we cross a jiffy boundary, grab a new
timestamp with ktime_get(), and *then* update jiffies.

Builds of the MIPS platform ip32_defconfig fails as of commit
0195c00244 ("Merge tag 'split-asm_system_h ...") because MIPS xchg()
macro uses BUILD_BUG_ON and it was moved in commit b81947c646
("Disintegrate asm/system.h for MIPS").
The root cause is that the system.h split wasn't tested on a baseline
with commit 6c03438ede ("kernel.h: doesn't explicitly use bug.h, so
don't include it.")
Since this file uses BUG code in several other places besides the xchg
call, simply make the inclusion explicit.

Pull perf updates and fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"It's mostly fixes, but there's also two late items:
- preliminary GTK GUI support for perf report
- PMU raw event format descriptors in sysfs, to be parsed by tooling
The raw event format in sysfs is a new ABI. For example for the 'CPU'
PMU we have:
aldebaran:~> ll /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/*
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/any
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/cmask
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/edge
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/event
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/inv
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/pc
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/umask
those lists of fields contain a specific format:
aldebaran:~> cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp
config1:0-63
So, those who wish to specify raw events can now use the following
event format:
-e cpu/cmask=1,event=2,umask=3
Most people will not want to specify any events (let alone raw
events), they'll just use whatever default event the tools use.
But for more obscure PMU events that have no cross-architecture
generic events the above syntax is more usable and a bit more
structured than specifying hex numbers."

The function for_each_cpu_mask() expects a *pointer* to struct
cpumask as its second argument, whereas select_fallback_rq()
passes the value itself.
And moreover, for_each_cpu_mask() has been marked as obselete
in include/linux/cpumask.h. So move to the more appropriate
for_each_cpu() variant.

irq_move_masked_irq() checks the return code of
chip->irq_set_affinity() only for 0, but IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY is
also a valid return code, which is there to avoid a redundant copy of
the cpumask. But in case of IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY we not only avoid
the redundant copy, we also fail to adjust the thread affinity of an
eventually threaded interrupt handler.
Handle IRQ_SET_MASK_OK (==0) and IRQ_SET_MASK_OK_NOCOPY(==1) return
values correctly by checking the valid return values seperately.

Pull urgent cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
"Commit 61d1d219c4 ('cgroup: remove extra calls to
find_existing_css_set') which was part of the rc1 cgroup pull request
made writes to the cgroup "tasks" file return an uninitialized retval
on success which can cause boot failures with systemd.
The change stayed in linux-next for quite some time but gcc
interestingly failed to emit warning about using uninitialized
variable and the problem seems to materialize only for certain build
combinations (probably depends on register allocation).
It's just missing local variable initialization and the fix is trivial
& safe. As the problem is critical when it materializes, I'm
fast-tracking it. Also included is Li's email address change in
MAINTAINERS."
* 'for-3.4-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
cgroup: cgroup_attach_task() could return -errno after success
cgroup: update MAINTAINERS entry
61d1d219c4 "cgroup: remove extra calls to find_existing_css_set" made
cgroup_task_migrate() return void. An unfortunate side effect was
that cgroup_attach_task() was depending on that function's return
value to clear its @retval on the success path. On cgroup mounts
without any subsystem with ->can_attach() callback,
cgroup_attach_task() ended up returning @retval without initializing
it on success.
For some reason, gcc failed to warn about it and it didn't cause
cgroup_attach_task() to return non-zero value in many cases, probably
due to difference in register allocation. When the problem
materializes, systemd fails to populate /systemd cgroup mount and
fails to boot.
Fix it by initializing @retval to zero on declaration.
