3c7b4e6b8b kmemleak: Add the base support
This patch adds the base support for the kernel memory leak
detector. It traces the memory allocation/freeing in a way similar to
the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the difference being that
the unreferenced objects are not freed but only shown in
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this feature introduces an
overhead to memory allocations.

c65c9bc3ef tty: rewrite the ldisc locking
There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially
with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the
code than simply try and patch it up.

This patch
- splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly
  later)
- introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device
- fixes the complete mess that hangup caused
- implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking

There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but
at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems.

This fixes the following known bugs
- hang up can leak ldisc references
- hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way
- pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change
- reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded

and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports.

I'm sure it also adds the odd new one.

38db89799b tty: throttling race fix
The tty throttling code can race due to the lock drops. It takes very high
loads but this has been observed and verified by Rob Duncan.

The basic problem is that on an SMP box we can go

	CPU #1				CPU #2
	need to throttle ?
	suppose we should		buffer space cleared
					are we throttled
					yes ? - unthrottle
	call throttle method

This changeet take the termios lock to protect against this. The termios
lock isn't the initial obvious candidate but many implementations of throttle
methods already need to poke around their own termios structures (and nobody
really locks them against a racing change of flow control).

This does mean that anyone who is setting tty->low_latency = 1 and then
calling tty_flip_buffer_push from their unthrottle method is going to end up
collapsing in a pile of locks. However we've removed all the known bogus
users of low_latency = 1 and such use isn't safe anyway for other reasons so
catching it would be an improvement.

} as[] = {

...
	{ ASYNC_BOOT_ONLYMCA, 0x00400000 },

Some drivers implement this internally, others miss it out. Push the

Update the dtr rts method to raise or lower depending upon flags. Having a

two funtions.

We need this in place before we tackle the USB side

0764771dab perf_counter: More paranoia settings
Rename the perf_counter_priv knob to perf_counter_paranoia (because
priv can be read as private, as opposed to privileged) and provide
one more level:

 0 - permissive
 1 - restrict cpu counters to privilidged contexts
 2 - restrict kernel-mode code counting and profiling

b0fd271d5f block: add request clone interface (v2)
This patch adds the following 2 interfaces for request-stacking drivers:

  - blk_rq_prep_clone(struct request *clone, struct request *orig,
		      struct bio_set *bs, gfp_t gfp_mask,
		      int (*bio_ctr)(struct bio *, struct bio*, void *),
		      void *data)
      * Clones bios in the original request to the clone request
        (bio_ctr is called for each cloned bios.)
      * Copies attributes of the original request to the clone request.
        The actual data parts (e.g. ->cmd, ->buffer, ->sense) are not
        copied.

  - blk_rq_unprep_clone(struct request *clone)
      * Frees cloned bios from the clone request.

Request stacking drivers (e.g. request-based dm) need to make a clone
request for a submitted request and dispatch it to other devices.

To allocate request for the clone, request stacking drivers may not
be able to use blk_get_request() because the allocation may be done
in an irq-disabled context.
So blk_rq_prep_clone() takes a request allocated by the caller
as an argument.

For each clone bio in the clone request, request stacking drivers
should be able to set up their own completion handler.
So blk_rq_prep_clone() takes a callback function which is called
for each clone bio, and a pointer for private data which is passed
to the callback.

NOTE:
blk_rq_prep_clone() doesn't copy any actual data of the original
request.  Pages are shared between original bios and cloned bios.
So caller must not complete the original request before the clone
request.

9e350de37a perf_counter: Accurate period data
We currently log hw.sample_period for PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, however this is
incorrect. When we adjust the period, it will only take effect the next
cycle but report it for the current cycle. So when we adjust the period
for every cycle, we're always wrong.

Solve this by keeping track of the last_period.
