Fix typo in comments.

BTW: I have to fix coding style in arch/ia64/kernel/time.c also, otherwise
checkpatch.pl will be complaining.

92df5c3e38 vmcoreinfo: fix the configuration dependencies
This patch fixes the configuration dependencies in the vmcoreinfo data.

i386's "node_data" is defined in arch/x86/mm/discontig_32.c,
and x86_64's one is defined in arch/x86/mm/numa_64.c.
They depend on CONFIG_NUMA:
  arch/x86/mm/Makefile_32:7
    obj-$(CONFIG_NUMA) += discontig_32.o
  arch/x86/mm/Makefile_64:7
    obj-$(CONFIG_NUMA) += numa_64.o

ia64's "pgdat_list" is defined in arch/ia64/mm/discontig.c,
and it depends on CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM and CONFIG_SPARSEMEM:
  arch/ia64/mm/Makefile:9-10
    obj-$(CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM) += discontig.o
    obj-$(CONFIG_SPARSEMEM)    += discontig.o

ia64's "node_memblk" is defined in arch/ia64/mm/numa.c,
and it depends on CONFIG_NUMA:
  arch/ia64/mm/Makefile:8
    obj-$(CONFIG_NUMA)         += numa.o

c76f860c44 vmcoreinfo: rename vmcoreinfo's macros returning the size
This patchset is for the vmcoreinfo data.

The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump
filtering.  makedumpfile (dump filtering command) gets it to distinguish
unnecessary pages, and makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile.

This patch:

VMCOREINFO_SIZE() should be renamed VMCOREINFO_STRUCT_SIZE() since it's always
returning the size of the struct with a given name. This change would allow
VMCOREINFO_TYPEDEF_SIZE() to simply become VMCOREINFO_SIZE() since it need not
be used exclusively for typedefs.

This discussion is the following:

72a7fe3967 Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()
This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.

This patch:

Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past.  This is to avoid conflicts.

Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

6c81c32f96 calibrate_delay() must be __cpuinit

I've verified that this is correct for all users.

While doing the latter, I also did the following cleanups:
- remove pointless additional prototypes in C files
- ensure all users #include <linux/delay.h>

This fixes the following section mismatches with CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n,

4d672e7ac7 timerfd: new timerfd API
This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:

int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
		    const struct itimerspec *utmr,
		    struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);

The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd.  The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.

The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).

The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter.  Otherwise it's a relative time.

The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.

Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface).  Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

On the per-architecture side, I do think it would be better to *not* have
internal architecture knowledge in a generic file, and as such a line like

        depends on X86_32 || IA64 || PPC || S390 || SPARC64 || X86_64 || AVR32

really shouldn't exist in a file like kernel/Kconfig.instrumentation.

It would be much better to do

        depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES

in that generic file, and then architectures that do support it would just
have a

        bool ARCH_SUPPORTS_KPROBES
                default y

in *their* architecture files. That would seem to be much more logical,
and is readable both for arch maintainers *and* for people who have no
clue - and don't care - about which architecture is supposed to support
which interface...

Changelog:

Actually, I know I gave this as the magic incantation, but now that I see
it, I realize that I should have told you to just use

        config KPROBES_SUPPORT
                def_bool y

instead, which is a bit denser.

We seem to use both kinds of syntax for these things, but this is really
what "def_bool" is there for...

- Use HAVE_KPROBES
- Use a select

- Yet another update :
Moving to HAVE_* now.

- Update ARM for kprobes support.

d3f46f39b7 [SCSI] remove use_sg_chaining
With the sg table code, every SCSI driver is now either chain capable
or broken (or has sg_tablesize set so chaining is never activated), so
there's no need to have a check in the host template.

Also tidy up the code by moving the scatterlist size defines into the
SCSI includes and permit the last entry of the scatterlist pools not
to be a power of two.

acdac87202 percpu: make the asm-generic/percpu.h more "generic"
- add support for PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES

- fix generic smp percpu_modcopy to use per_cpu_offset() macro.

Add the ability to use generic/percpu even if the arch needs to override
several aspects of its operations. This will enable the use of generic
percpu.h for all arches.

An arch may define:

__per_cpu_offset	Do not use the generic pointer array. Arch must
			define per_cpu_offset(cpu) (used by x86_64, s390).

__my_cpu_offset		Can be defined to provide an optimized way to determine
			the offset for variables of the currently executing
			processor. Used by ia64, x86_64, x86_32, sparc64, s/390.

SHIFT_PTR(ptr, offset)	If an arch defines it then special handling
			of pointer arithmentic may be implemented. Used
			by s/390.

(Some of these special percpu arch implementations may be later consolidated
so that there are less cases to deal with.)

95c354fe9f spinlock: lockbreak cleanup
The break_lock data structure and code for spinlocks is quite nasty.
Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to
a potentially less optimal trylock.

Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a
__raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether
there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is
not set.

Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to
decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks
do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up
with that break_lock then?).
