When the cpu count is high and contention hits an atomic object, the
processors can synchronize such that some cpus continually get knocked
out and cannot complete the atomic update.
So implement an exponential backoff when SMP.

I can't see the reason ". = VDSO_PRELINK + 0x900;" was ever there in
the linker script for the x86_64 vDSO. I can't find anything that
depends on this magic offset, or that should care at all about the
particular location of of the .data section (all from vvar.c) in the
vDSO image. If it is really desireable to place .data at 0x900, then it
should be after all the other sections so they fill in the space up to
0x900.
This removes the 0x900 magic and cleans up the output sections generally
in the vDSO linker script. This saves a few hundred bytes in the size
of the vDSO file, bringing it back well under 4kb total so that its vma
only needs one page.

Add missing IRQs and IRQ descriptions to /proc/interrupts.
/proc/interrupts is most useful when it displays every IRQ vector in use by
the system, not just those somebody thought would be interesting.
This patch inserts the following vector displays to the i386 and x86_64
platforms, as appropriate:
rescheduling interrupts
TLB flush interrupts
function call interrupts
thermal event interrupts
threshold interrupts
spurious interrupts
A threshold interrupt occurs when ECC memory correction is occuring at too
high a frequency. Thresholds are used by the ECC hardware as occasional
ECC failures are part of normal operation, but long sequences of ECC
failures usually indicate a memory chip that is about to fail.
Thermal event interrupts occur when a temperature threshold has been
exceeded for some CPU chip. IIRC, a thermal interrupt is also generated
when the temperature drops back to a normal level.
A spurious interrupt is an interrupt that was raised then lowered by the
device before it could be fully processed by the APIC. Hence the apic sees
the interrupt but does not know what device it came from. For this case
the APIC hardware will assume a vector of 0xff.
Rescheduling, call, and TLB flush interrupts are sent from one CPU to
another per the needs of the OS. Typically, their statistics would be used
to discover if an interrupt flood of the given type has been occuring.
AK: merged v2 and v4 which had some more tweaks
AK: replace Local interrupts with Local timer interrupts
AK: Fixed description of interrupt types.

This adds a const to the definitions vvar.c makes, so that the vdso_*

the vDSO itself and user mode, even though the contents of the DSO image

In x86_64 and i386 architectures most arrays that are sized using
NR_CPUS lay in local memory on node 0. Not only will most (99%?) of the
systems not use all the slots in these arrays, particularly when NR_CPUS
is increased to accommodate future very high cpu count systems, but a
number of cache lines are passed unnecessarily on the system bus when
these arrays are referenced by cpus on other nodes.
Typically, the values in these arrays are referenced by the cpu
accessing it's own values, though when passing IPI interrupts, the cpu
does access the data relevant to the targeted cpu/node. Of course, if
the referencing cpu is not on node 0, then the reference will still
require cross node exchanges of cache lines. A common use of this is
for an interrupt service routine to pass the interrupt to other cpus
local to that node.
Ideally, all the elements in these arrays should be moved to the per_cpu
data area. In some cases (such as x86_cpu_to_apicid) the array is
referenced before the per_cpu data areas are setup. In this case, a
static array is declared in the __initdata area and initialized by the
booting cpu (BSP). The values are then moved to the per_cpu area after
it is initialized and the original static array is freed with the rest
of the __initdata.
This patch:
Fix four instances where cpu_to_node is referenced by array instead of
via the cpu_to_node macro. This is preparation to moving it to the
per_cpu data area.
