26b9f22870 dm: delay target
New device-mapper target that can delay I/O (for testing).  Reads can be
separated from writes, redirected to different underlying devices and delayed
by differing amounts of time.

This patch ports dm-exception-store.c to the new, scalable dm_io() interface.

It replaces dm_io_get()/dm_io_put() by
dm_io_client_create()/dm_io_client_destroy() calls and
dm_io_sync_vm() by dm_io() to achive this.

a8e6afa236 dm raid1: add handle_errors feature flag
This patch adds the ability to specify desired features in the mirror
constructor/mapping table.

The first feature of interest is "handle_errors".  Currently, mirroring will
ignore any I/O errors from the devices.  Subsequent patches will check for
this flag and handle the errors.  If flag/feature is not present, mirror will
do nothing - maintaining backwards compatibility.

f97380bcad dm crypt: use smaller bvecs in clones
Allocate smaller clones

With the previous dm-crypt fixes, there is no need for the clone bios to have
the same bvec size as the original - we just need to make them big enough for
the remaining number of pages.  The only requirement is that we clear the
"out" index in convert_context, so that crypt_convert starts storing data at
the right position within the clone bio.

2f9941b6c5 dm crypt: fix remove first_clone
Get rid of first_clone in dm-crypt

This gets rid of first_clone, which is not really needed.  Apparently, cloned
bios used to share their bvec some time way in the past - this is no longer
the case.  Contrarily, this even hurts us if we try to create a clone off
first_clone after it has completed, and crypt_endio has destroyed its bvec.

6ad36fe2b4 dm raid1: one kmirrord per mirror
This patch replaces the single instance of kmirrord by one instance per mirror
set.  This change is required to avoid a deadlock in kmirrord when the
persistent dirty log of a mirror itself resides on a mirror.  The single
instance of kmirrord then issues a sync write to the dirty log in write_bits
which gets deferred to kmirrord itself later in the call chain.  But kmirrord
never does the deferred work because it is still waiting for the sync
write_bits.

_mirror_sets is removed as it no longer needed, and we always flush the
workqueue before destroying it to ensure all work is complete before
destroying it.

41ecc55b8a SLUB: add CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG
CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG can be used to switch off the debugging and sysfs components
of SLUB.  Thus SLUB will be able to replace SLOB.  SLUB can arrange objects in
a denser way than SLOB and the code size should be minimal without debugging
and sysfs support.

Note that CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG is materially different from CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG.
CONFIG_SLAB_DEBUG is used to enable slab debugging in SLAB.  SLUB enables
debugging via a boot parameter.  SLUB debug code should always be present.

CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG can be modified in the embedded config section.

26a7bd0302 SLUB: get rid of finish_bootstrap
Its only purpose was to bring some sort of symmetry to sysfs usage when
dealing with bootstrapping per cpu flushing.  Since we do not time out slabs
anymore we have no need to run finish_bootstrap even without sysfs.  Fold it
back into slab_sysfs_init and drop the initcall for the !SYFS case.

65c02d4cfb SLUB: add support for dynamic cacheline size determination
SLUB currently assumes that the cacheline size is static.  However, i386 f.e.
supports dynamic cache line size determination.

Use cache_line_size() instead of L1_CACHE_BYTES in the allocator.

That also explains the purpose of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN.  So we will need to keep
that one around to allow dynamic aligning of objects depending on boot
determination of the cache line size.

de372ecd80 Documentation/i386/boot.txt: update and correct
In the process of rewriting the x86 setup code, I found a number of
inaccuracies and outdated recommendations in the boot protocol
documentation.  Revamp to make it more up to date.

In particular, the common use of the heap actually requires (slightly)
more than 4K of heap plus stack, which is the recommended amount in
the document; currently the code compensates by being smaller than
specified, but we can't assume that will be true forever.  Thus,
recommend that if we have a modern bzImage kernel, that the bootloader
maximizes the available space.

d5f9f942c6 revert 'sched: redundant reschedule when set_user_nice() boosts a prio of a task from the "expired" array'
Revert commit bd53f96ca5.

Con says:

This is no good, sorry. The one I saw originally was with the staircase
deadline cpu scheduler in situ and was different.

  #define TASK_PREEMPTS_CURR(p, rq) \
     ((p)->prio < (rq)->curr->prio)
     (((p)->prio < (rq)->curr->prio) && ((p)->array == (rq)->active))

This will fail to wake up a runqueue for a task that has been migrated to the
expired array of a runqueue which is otherwise idle which can happen with smp
balancing,

Miscellaneous fixes to bring FRV up to date:

 (1) Copy the new syscall numbers from i386 to asm-frv/unistd.h and fill out
     the syscall table in entry.S too.

 (2) Mark __frv_uart0 and __frv_uart1 __pminitdata rather than __initdata so
     that determine_clocks() can access them when CONFIG_PM=y.

 (3) Make arch/frv/mm/elf-fdpic.c include asm/mman.h so that MAP_FIXED is
     available (fixes commit 2fd3bebaad).
