add_timer_on() can add a timer on a CPU which is currently in a long
idle sleep, but the timer wheel is not reevaluated by the nohz code on
that CPU. So a timer can be delayed for quite a long time. This
triggered a false positive in the clocksource watchdog code.
To avoid this we need to wake up the idle CPU and enforce the
reevaluation of the timer wheel for the next timer event.
Add a function, which checks a given CPU for idle state, marks the
idle task with NEED_RESCHED and sends a reschedule IPI to notify the
other CPU of the change in the timer wheel.
Call this function from add_timer_on().

IFF_ALLMULTI is an indication from the network stack to the driver
to disable multicast filters, drivers should never set it directly.
Since the UML networking device doesn't have any filtering capabilites,
it doesn't the set_multicast_list function at all, it is kept so userspace

Changing these flags requires to use dev_set_allmulti/dev_set_promiscuity
or dev_change_flags. Setting it directly causes two unwanted effects:
- the next dev_change_flags call will notice a difference between
dev->gflags and the actual flags, enable promisc/allmulti
mode and incorrectly update dev->gflags
- this keeps the underlying device in promisc/allmulti mode until
the VLAN device is deleted

commit 9b12e18cdc
'ACPI: cpuidle: Support C1 idle time accounting'
was implicated in a 100% C0 idle regression.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10076
It pointed out a potential problem where the menu governor
may get confused by the C-state residency time from poll
idle or C1 idle, where this timing info is not accurate.
This inaccuracy is due to interrupts being handled
before we account for C-state exit.
Do not mark TIME_VALID for CO poll state.
Mark C1 time as valid only with the MWAIT (CSTATE_FFH) entry method.
This makes governors use the timing information only when it is correct and
eliminates any wrong policy decisions that may result from invalid timing
information.

This original patch
http://ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0712.2/1451.html
was intending to add acpi_unlazy_tlb() to acpi_idle_enter_bm(),
which is used for C3 entry.
But it was merged incorrectly as commmit
bde6f5f59c
'x86: voluntary leave_mm before entering ACPI C3'
so the call was instead added to acpi_idle_enter_simple()
(which is C2 entry routine), probably due to identical
context in that function.
Move the call back to acpi_idle_enter_bm().

napi->poll() could be called either with interrupts enabled

Using iWARP with a Chelsio T3 NIC generates the following lockdep warning:
=================================
[ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
2.6.25-rc6 #50
---------------------------------
inconsistent {softirq-on-W} -> {in-softirq-W} usage.
swapper/0 [HC0[0]:SC1[1]:HE0:SE0] takes:
(&adap->sge.reg_lock){-+..}, at: [<ffffffff880e5ee2>] cxgb_offload_ctl+0x3af/0x507 [cxgb3]
The problem is that reg_lock is used with plain spin_lock() in
drivers/net/cxgb3/sge.c but is used with spin_lock_irqsave() in
drivers/net/cxgb3/cxgb3_offload.c. This is technically a false
positive, since the uses in sge.c are only in the initialization and
cleanup paths and cannot overlap with any use in interrupt context.
The best fix is probably just to use spin_lock_irq() with reg_lock in
sge.c. Even though it's not strictly required for correctness, it
avoids triggering lockdep and the extra overhead of disabling
interrupts is not important at all in the initialization and cleanup
slow paths.
