The rcu_is_cpu_idle() function is used if CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC,
but TINY_RCU defines it only when CONFIG_PROVE_RCU. This causes
build failures when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y but CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=n.
This commit therefore adjusts the #ifdefs for rcu_is_cpu_idle() so
that it is defined when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y.

The __call_rcu() function is a bit overweight, so this commit splits

The __call_rcu() function will invoke the RCU core, for example, if
it detects that the current CPU has too many callbacks. However, this
can happen on an offline CPU that is on its way to the idle loop, in
which case it is an error to invoke the RCU core, and the excess callbacks
will be adopted in any case. This commit therefore adds checks to
__call_rcu() for running on an offline CPU, refraining from invoking
the RCU core in this case.

Although __call_rcu() is handled correctly when called from a momentary
non-idle period, if it is called on a CPU that RCU believes to be idle
on RCU_FAST_NO_HZ kernels, the callback might be indefinitely postponed.
This commit therefore ensures that RCU is aware of the new callback and
has a chance to force the CPU out of dyntick-idle mode when a new callback
is posted.

RCU_INIT_POINTER() returns a value that is never used, and which should
be abolished due to terminal ugliness:
q = RCU_INIT_POINTER(global_p, p);
However, there are two uses that cannot be handled by a do-while
formulation because they do gcc-style initialization:
RCU_INIT_POINTER(.real_cred, &init_cred),
RCU_INIT_POINTER(.cred, &init_cred),
This usage is clever, but not necessarily the nicest approach.

The acpi_pad driver can get stuck in destroy_power_saving_task()
waiting for kthread_stop() to stop a power_saving thread. The problem
is that the isolated_cpus_lock mutex is owned when
destroy_power_saving_task() calls kthread_stop(), which waits for a
power_saving thread to end, and the power_saving thread tries to
acquire the isolated_cpus_lock when it calls round_robin_cpu(). This
patch fixes the issue by making round_robin_cpu() use its own mutex.

Continuation lines are buffered internally, intended to merge the
chunked printk()s into a single record, and to isolate potentially
racy continuation users from usual terminated line users.
This though, has the effect that partial lines are not printed to
the console in the moment they are emitted. In case the kernel
crashes in the meantime, the potentially interesting printed
information would never reach the consoles.
Here we share the continuation buffer with the console copy logic,
and partial lines are always immediately flushed to the available
consoles. They are still buffered internally to improve the
readability and integrity of the messages and minimize the amount
of needed record headers to store.

Commit f948501b36 ("Make hard_irq_disable() actually hard-disable
interrupts") caused check_and_cede_processor to stop working.
->irq_happened will never be zero right after a hard_irq_disable
so the compiler removes the call to cede_processor completely.
The bug was introduced back in the lazy interrupt handling rework
of 3.4 but was hidden until recently because hard_irq_disable did
nothing.
This issue will eventually appear in 3.4 stable since the
hard_irq_disable fix is marked stable, so mark this one for stable
too.

As I was adding code that affects all archs, I started testing function
tracer against PPC64 and found that it currently locks up with 3.4
kernel. I figured it was due to tracing a function that shouldn't be, so
I went through the following process to bisect to find the culprit:
cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions > t
num=`wc -l t`
sed -ne "1,${num}p" t > t1
let num=num+1
sed -ne "${num},$p" t > t2
cat t1 > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
echo function /debug/tracing/current_tracer
<failed? bisect t1, if not bisect t2>
It finally came down to this function: restore_interrupts()
I'm not sure why this locks up the system. It just seems to prevent
scheduling from occurring. Interrupts seem to still work, as I can ping
the box. But all user processes freeze.
When restore_interrupts() is not traced, function tracing works fine.

WARNING: arch/powerpc/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x2923c): Section mismatch
in reference from the function .prom_query_opal() to the
function .init.text:.call_prom()
The function .prom_query_opal() references
the function __init .call_prom().
This is often because .prom_query_opal lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of .call_prom is wrong.

In entry_64.S version of ret_from_except_lite, you'll notice that
in the !preempt case, after we've checked MSR_PR we test for any
TIF flag in _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide whether to go to do_work
or not. However, in the preempt case, we do a convoluted trick to
test SIGPENDING only if PR was set and always test NEED_RESCHED ...
but we forget to test any other bit of _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK !!! So
that means that with preempt, we completely fail to test for things
like single step, syscall tracing, etc...
This should be fixed as the following path:
- Test PR. If not set, go to resume_kernel, else continue.
- If go resume_kernel, to do that original do_work.
- If else, then always test for _TIF_USER_WORK_MASK to decide to do
that original user_work, else restore directly.

chroma_defconfig currently gives me this with gcc 4.6:
arch/powerpc/mm/numa.c:638:13: error: 'dm' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
It's a bogus warning/error since of_get_drconf_memory() only writes it
anyway.

If the kernel is big enough (eg. allyesconfig), the linker may need to
switch TOCs when calling from the BPF JIT code out to the external
helpers (skb_copy_bits() & bpf_internal_load_pointer_neg_helper()).
In order to do that we need to leave space after the bl for the linker
to insert a reload of our TOC pointer.

In commit 7a87982420 we added
a wrapper for the WDIOC_GETSTATUS ioctl call. The code results
however in a different behaviour: it returns an error if the
driver doesn't support the status operation. This is not
according to the API that says that when we don't support
the status operation, that we just should return a 0 value.
Only when the device isn't there anymore, we should return an
error.

The recent conversion of iTCO_wdt resulted in the driver no longer
getting loaded automatically, since it no longer has a
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() included. As the lpc_ich driver now creates a
platform device, auto-loading can easily be done by having a respective
module alias in place.
