When unaligned accesses are required for uncompressing a kernel (such as
for LZO decompression on ARM in a patch that follows), including
<linux/kernel.h> causes issues as it brings in a lot of things that are
not available in the decompression environment.
linux/kernel.h brings at least:
extern int console_printk[];
extern const char hex_asc[];
which causes errors at link-time as they are not available when
compiling the pre-boot environement. There are also a few others:

However, those files apparently use nothing from <linux/kernel.h>, all

This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held,

make it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check.
Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set,
to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its
tracing hooks.
This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller
do_signal_stop(). The function is short, called only once and only
unconditionally. It aids readability to fold it in.

The bug is old, it wasn't cause by recent changes.
Test case:
static void *tfunc(void *arg)
{
int pid = (long)arg;
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, NULL, NULL) == 0);
kill(pid, SIGKILL);
sleep(1);
return NULL;
}
int main(void)
{
pthread_t th;
long pid = fork();
if (!pid)
pause();
signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_IGN);
assert(pthread_create(&th, NULL, tfunc, (void*)pid) == 0);
int r = waitpid(-1, NULL, __WNOTHREAD);
printf("waitpid: %d %m\n", r);
return 0;
}
Before the patch this program hangs, after this patch waitpid() correctly
fails with errno == -ECHILD.
The problem is, __ptrace_detach() reaps the EXIT_ZOMBIE tracee if its
->real_parent is our sub-thread and we ignore SIGCHLD. But in this case
we should wake up other threads which can sleep in do_wait().

Implement reclaim from groups over their soft limit
Permit reclaim from memory cgroups on contention (via the direct reclaim
path).
memory cgroup soft limit reclaim finds the group that exceeds its soft
limit by the largest number of pages and reclaims pages from it and then
reinserts the cgroup into its correct place in the rbtree.
Add additional checks to mem_cgroup_hierarchical_reclaim() to detect long
loops in case all swap is turned off. The code has been refactored and
the loop check (loop < 2) has been enhanced for soft limits. For soft
limits, we try to do more targetted reclaim. Instead of bailing out after
two loops, the routine now reclaims memory proportional to the size by
which the soft limit is exceeded. The proportion has been empirically
determined.

Organize cgroups over soft limit in a RB-Tree
Introduce an RB-Tree for storing memory cgroups that are over their soft
limit. The overall goal is to
1. Add a memory cgroup to the RB-Tree when the soft limit is exceeded.
We are careful about updates, updates take place only after a particular
time interval has passed
2. We remove the node from the RB-Tree when the usage goes below the soft
limit
The next set of patches will exploit the RB-Tree to get the group that is
over its soft limit by the largest amount and reclaim from it, when we
face memory contention.

RES_SOFT_LIMIT has been added. Unlike hard limits, soft limits can be

Kamezawa-San raised a question as to whether soft limit should belong to
res_counter. Since all resources understand the basic concepts of hard

a generic resource usage feature, even file system quotas support soft

Previously there was the problem in which two processes from different pid
namespaces reading the tasks or procs file could result in one process
seeing results from the other's namespace. Rather than one pidlist for
each file in a cgroup, we now keep a list of pidlists keyed by namespace
and file type (tasks versus procs) in which entries are placed on demand.
Each pidlist has its own lock, and that the pidlists themselves are passed
around in the seq_file's private pointer means we don't have to touch the
cgroup or its master list except when creating and destroying entries.

The following series adds a "cgroup.procs" file to each cgroup that
reports unique tgids rather than pids, and allows all threads in a
threadgroup to be atomically moved to a new cgroup.
The subsystem "attach" interface is modified to support attaching whole
threadgroups at a time, which could introduce potential problems if any
subsystem were to need to access the old cgroup of every thread being
moved. The attach interface may need to be revised if this becomes the
case.
Also added is functionality for read/write locking all CLONE_THREAD
fork()ing within a threadgroup, by means of an rwsem that lives in the
sighand_struct, for per-threadgroup-ness and also for sharing a cacheline
with the sighand's atomic count. This scheme should introduce no extra
overhead in the fork path when there's no contention.
The final patch reveals potential for a race when forking before a
subsystem's attach function is called - one potential solution in case any
subsystem has this problem is to hang on to the group's fork mutex through
the attach() calls, though no subsystem yet demonstrates need for an
extended critical section.

cgroups: fix pid namespace bug
This is in preparation for some clashing cgroups changes that subsume the
original commit's functionaliy.
The original commit fixed a pid namespace bug which Ben Blum fixed
independently (in the same way, but with different code) as part of a
series of patches. I played around with trying to reconcile Ben's patch
series with Li's patch, but concluded that it was simpler to just revert
Li's, given that Ben's patch series contained essentially the same fix.

There are many similar code in kernel for one object: convert time between
calendar time and broken-down time.
Here is some source I found:

fs/smbfs/proc.c
fs/fat/misc.c
fs/udf/udftime.c
fs/cifs/netmisc.c
net/netfilter/xt_time.c

arch/ia64/hp/sim/boot/fw-emu.c
arch/m68k/mac/misc.c
arch/powerpc/kernel/time.c
arch/parisc/include/asm/rtc.h
...
We can make a common function for this type of conversion, At least we
can get following benefit:
1: Make kernel simple and unify
2: Easy to fix bug in converting code
3: Reduce clone of code in future
For example, I'm trying to make ftrace display walltime,
this patch will make me easy.
This code is based on code from glibc-2.6

bd_fsfreeze_mutex, and the only other place we take bd_mount_sem is
get_sb_bdev which tries to prevent mounting a filesystem while the block
device is frozen. Instead of add a check for bd_fsfreeze_count and
return -EBUSY if a filesystem is frozen. While that is a change in user
visible behaviour a failing mount is much better for this case rather
than having the mount process stuck uninterruptible for a long time.

Add two helpers that allow access to the seq_file's own buffer, but
hide the internal details of seq_files.
This allows easier implementation of special purpose filling
functions. It also cleans up some existing functions which duplicated
the seq_file logic.
Make these inline functions in seq_file.h, as suggested by Al.

sb->s_maxbytes is supposed to indicate the maximum size of a file that can
exist on the filesystem. It's declared as an unsigned long long.
Even if a filesystem has no inherent limit that prevents it from using
every bit in that unsigned long long, it's still problematic to set it to
anything larger than MAX_LFS_FILESIZE. There are places in the kernel
that cast s_maxbytes to a signed value. If it's set too large then this
cast makes it a negative number and generally breaks the comparison.
Change s_maxbytes to be loff_t instead. That should help eliminate the
temptation to set it too large by making it a signed value.
Also, add a warning for couple of releases to help catch filesystems that
set s_maxbytes too large. Eventually we can either convert this to a
BUG() or just remove it and in the hope that no one will get it wrong now
that it's a signed value.

Hugetlbfs needs to do special things instead of truncate_inode_pages().
Currently, it copied generic_forget_inode() except for
truncate_inode_pages() call which is asking for trouble (the code there
isn't trivial). So create a separate function generic_detach_inode()
which does all the list magic done in generic_forget_inode() and call
it from hugetlbfs_forget_inode().

Up until 1.1.83, the primitive human tribes used struct sigaction for
interrupts. The sa_mask field was overloaded to hold a pointer to the
name.
When someone created the new "struct irqaction" they carried across
the "mask" field as a kind of ancestor worship: the fact that it was
unused makes clear its spiritual significance.

(Thanks to Al Viro for reminding me of this, via Ingo)
CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }
Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)
Which formalizes this practice. One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).
Now all callers are removed, we kill it.

For this system call user space passes a signed long length parameter,
while the kernel side takes an unsigned long parameter and converts it
later to signed long again.
This has led to bugs in compat wrappers see e.g. dd90bbd5 "powerpc: Add
compat_sys_truncate". The s390 compat wrapper for this functions is
broken as well since it also performs zero extension instead of sign
extension for the length parameter.
In addition if hpa comes up with an automated way of generating
compat wrappers it would generate a wrong one here.
So change the length parameter from unsigned long to long.

Support two new half-duplex SPI implementation restrictions, for links
that talk to TX-only or RX-only devices. (Existing half-duplex flavors
support both transfer directions, just not at the same time.)
Move spi_async() into the spi.c core, and stop inlining it. Then make
that function perform error checks and reject messages that demand more
than the underlying controller can support.
Based on a patch from Marek Szyprowski which did this only for the
bitbanged GPIO driver.

With this patch spi drivers can use standard spi_driver.id_table and
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() mechanisms to bind against the devices. Just like
we do with I2C drivers.
This is useful when a single driver supports several variants of devices
but it is not possible to detect them in run-time (like non-JEDEC chips
probing in drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c), and when platform_data usage is
overkill.
This patch also makes life a lot easier on OpenFirmware platforms, since
with OF we extensively use proper device IDs in modaliases.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> pointed out that vmemmap
range is not included in KCORE_RAM, KCORE_VMALLOC ....
This adds KCORE_VMEMMAP if SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is used. By this, vmemmap
can be readable via /proc/kcore
Because it's not vmalloc area, vread/vwrite cannot be used. But the range
is static against the memory layout, this patch handles vmemmap area by
the same scheme with physical memory.
This patch assumes SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP range is not in VMALLOC range. It's
correct now.

Originally, walk_memory_resource() was introduced to traverse all memory
of "System RAM" for detecting memory hotplug/unplug range. For doing so,
flags of IORESOUCE_MEM|IORESOURCE_BUSY was used and this was enough for
memory hotplug.
But for using other purpose, /proc/kcore, this may includes some firmware
area marked as IORESOURCE_BUSY | IORESOUCE_MEM. This patch makes the
check strict to find out busy "System RAM".
Note: PPC64 keeps their own walk_memory_resouce(), which walk through
ppc64's lmb informaton. Because old kclist_add() is called per lmb, this
patch makes no difference in behavior, finally.
And this patch removes CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG check from this function.
Because pfn_valid() just show "there is memmap or not* and cannot be used
for "there is physical memory or not", this function is useful in generic
to scan physical memory range.

This patchset is for /proc/kcore. With this,
- many per-arch hooks are removed.
- /proc/kcore will know really valid physical memory area.
- /proc/kcore will be aware of memory hotplug.
- /proc/kcore will be architecture independent i.e.
if an arch supports CONFIG_MMU, it can use /proc/kcore.
(if the arch uses usual memory layout.)
This patch:
/proc/kcore uses its own list handling codes. It's better to use
generic list codes.
No changes in logic. just clean up.

A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage,
especially for embedded linux.
Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks
the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack
xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack. This is a value
information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the
top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z

Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the base
address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.

Power can be saved by powering off cards that are not in use. This is
similar to suspend / resume except it is under the control of the driver,
and does not require any power management support. It can only be used
when the driver can monitor whether the card is removed, otherwise it is
unsafe. This is possible because, unlike suspend, the driver still
receives card detect and / or cover switch interrupts.

Split the anonfd interface into a bare file pointer creation one, and a
file pointer creation plus install one.
There are cases, like the usage of eventfds inside other kernel
interfaces, where the file pointer created by anonfd needs to be used
inside the initialization of other structures.
As it is right now, as soon as anon_inode_getfd() returns, the kenrle can
race with userspace closing the newly installed file descriptor.
This patch, while keeping the old anon_inode_getfd(), introduces a new
anon_inode_getfile() (whose services are reused in anon_inode_getfd())
that allows to split the file creation phase and the fd install one.
Once all the kernel structures are initialized, the code can call the
proper fd_install().

gcc permitting variable length arrays makes the current construct used for
BUILD_BUG_ON() useless, as that doesn't produce any diagnostic if the
controlling expression isn't really constant. Instead, this patch makes
it so that a bit field gets used here. Consequently, those uses where the
condition isn't really constant now also need fixing.
Note that in the gfp.h, kmemcheck.h, and virtio_config.h cases
MAYBE_BUILD_BUG_ON() really just serves documentation purposes - even if
the expression is compile time constant (__builtin_constant_p() yields
true), the array is still deemed of variable length by gcc, and hence the
whole expression doesn't have the intended effect.

The act of a process becoming a session leader is a useful signal to a
supervising init daemon such as Upstart.
While a daemon will normally do this as part of the process of becoming a
daemon, it is rare for its children to do so. When the children do, it is
nearly always a sign that the child should be considered detached from the
parent and not supervised along with it.
The poster-child example is OpenSSH; the per-login children call setsid()
so that they may control the pty connected to them. If the primary daemon
dies or is restarted, we do not want to consider the per-login children
and want to respawn the primary daemon without killing the children.

This patch can remove spinlock from struct call_function_data, the
reasons are below:
1: add a new interface for cpumask named cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(),
it can atomically test and clear specific cpu, we can use it instead
of cpumask_test_cpu() and cpumask_clear_cpu() and no need data->lock
to protect those in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt().
2: in smp_call_function_many(), after csd_lock() return, the current's
cfd_data is deleted from call_function list, so it not have race
between other cpus, then cfs_data is only used in
smp_call_function_many() that must disable preemption and not from
a hardware interrupthandler or from a bottom half handler to call,
only the correspond cpu can use it, so it not have race in current
cpu, no need cfs_data->lock to protect it.
3: after 1 and 2, cfs_data->lock is only use to protect cfs_data->refs in
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt(), so we can define cfs_data->refs
to atomic_t, and no need cfs_data->lock any more.

This patch (as1283) adds a new flag, USBDEVFS_URB_BULK_CONTINUATION,
to usbfs. It is intended for userspace libraries such as libusb and
openusb. When they have to break up a single usbfs bulk transfer into
multiple URBs, they will set the flag on all but the first URB of the
series.
If an error other than an unlink occurs, the kernel will automatically
cancel all the following URBs for the same endpoint and refuse to
accept new submissions, until an URB is encountered that is not marked
as a BULK_CONTINUATION. Such an URB would indicate the start of a new
transfer or the presence of an older library, so the kernel returns to
normal operation.
This enables libraries to delimit bulk transfers correctly, even in
the presence of early termination as indicated by short packets.

On some EHCI usb debug controllers, the EHCI debug device will fail to
be seen after a port reset, after a warm reset. Two options exist to
get the device to initialize correctly.
Option 1 is to unplug and plug in the device.
Option 2 is to use the EHCI port test to get the usb debug device to
start talking again. At that point the debug controller port reset
will succeed.

If the EHCI debug port is initialized and in use, the EHCI host
controller driver must follow two rules.
1) If the EHCI host driver issues a controller reset, the debug
controller driver re-initialization must get called after the reset
is completed.
2) The EHCI host driver should ignore any requests to the physical
EHCI debug port when the EHCI debug port is in use.
The code to check for the debug port was moved from ehci_pci_reinit()
to ehci_pci_setup because it must get called prior to ehci_reset()
which will clear the debug port registers.

This patch implements several changes:
1) Improve the capability to debug the dbgp driver
The dbgp_ehci_status() was added in a number of places to report
the critical ehci registers to diagnose the cause of a failure of
the ehci-dbgp driver.
2) Capability to survive the host controller initialization
The dbgp_external_startup(), dbgp_not_safe, and dbgp_phys_port were
added so as to allow the ehci-dbgp to re-initialize after the ehci
host controller is reset by the standard host controller driver.
This same routine is common for the early startup or
re-initialization.
This resulted in the need to move some of the initialization code
out of the __init section because the ehci driver has the
possibility to be loaded later on as a kernel module.
3) Stability improvements for device initialization
The device enumeration from 0 to 127 has the possibility to fail
the first time after a warm reset on some older EHCI debug
controllers. The enumeration will be tried up to 3 times to
account for this failure case.
The dbg_wait_until_complete() was changed to wait up to 250 ms
before failing which only comes into play during device
initialization. The maximum delay will never get hit during the
course of normal operation of the driver, unless the device got
unplugged or there was a ehci controller failure, in which case the
dbgp device driver will shut itself down.

When do_output_char() attempts to write a carriage return/line feed sequence,
it first checks to see how much buffer room is available. If there are at least
two characters free, it will write the carriage return/line feed with two calls
to tty_put_char(). It calls the tty_operation functions write() for devices that
don't support the tty_operations function put_char(). If the USB generic serial
device's write URB is not in use, it will return the buffer size when asked how
much room is available. The write() of the carriage return will cause it to mark
the write URB busy, so the subsequent write() of the line feed will be ignored.
This patch uses the kfifo infrastructure to implement a write FIFO that
accurately returns the amount of space available in the buffer.

This patch (as1258) implements a feature that users have been asking
for: It gives programs the ability to "claim" a port on a hub, via a
new usbfs ioctl. A device plugged into a "claimed" port will not be
touched by the kernel beyond the immediate necessities of
initialization and enumeration.
In particular, when a device is plugged into a "claimed" port, the
kernel will not select and install a configuration. And when a config
is installed by usbfs or sysfs, the kernel will not probe any drivers
for any of the interfaces. (However the kernel will fetch various
string descriptors during enumeration. One could argue that this
isn't really necessary, but the strings are exported in sysfs.)
The patch does not guarantee exclusive access to these devices; it is
still possible for more than one program to open the device file
concurrently. Programs are responsible for coordinating access among
themselves.
A demonstration program showing how to use the new interface can be
found in an attachment to
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=124345857431452&w=2
The patch also makes a small simplification to the hub driver,
replacing a bunch of more-or-less useless variants of "out of memory"
with a single message.

This patch fixes crashes when usbmon attempts to access GART aperture.
The old code attempted to take a bus address and convert it into a
virtual address, which clearly was impossible on systems with actual
IOMMUs. Let us not persist in this foolishness, and use transfer_buffer
in all cases instead.
I think downsides are negligible. The ones I see are:
- A driver may pass an address of one buffer down as transfer_buffer,
and entirely different entity mapped for DMA, resulting in misleading
output of usbmon. Note, however, that PIO based controllers would
do transfer the same data that usbmon sees here.
- Out of tree drivers may crash usbmon if they store garbage in
transfer_buffer. I inspected the in-tree drivers, and clarified
the documentation in comments.
- Drivers that use get_user_pages will not be possible to monitor.
I only found one driver with this problem (drivers/staging/rspiusb).
- Same happens with with usb_storage transferring from highmem, but
it works fine on 64-bit systems, so I think it's not a concern.
At least we don't crash anymore.
Why didn't we do this in 2.6.10? That's because back in those days
it was popular not to fill in transfer_buffer, so almost all
traffic would be invisible (e.g. all of HID was like that).
But now, the tree is almost 100% PIO friendly, so we can do the
right thing at last.

FLEX_ARRAY_INIT(element_size, total_nr_elements) cannot determine if
either parameter is valid, so flex arrays which are statically allocated
with this interface can easily become corrupted or reference beyond its
allocated memory.
This removes FLEX_ARRAY_INIT() as a struct flex_array initializer since no
initializer may perform the required checking. Instead, the array is now
defined with a new interface:
DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAY(name, element_size, total_nr_elements)
This may be prefixed with `static' for file scope.
This interface includes compile-time checking of the parameters to ensure
they are valid. Since the validity of both element_size and
total_nr_elements depend on FLEX_ARRAY_BASE_SIZE and FLEX_ARRAY_PART_SIZE,
the kernel build will fail if either of these predefined values changes
such that the array parameters are no longer valid.
Since BUILD_BUG_ON() requires compile time constants, several of the
static inline functions that were once local to lib/flex_array.c had to be
moved to include/linux/flex_array.h.

distinguish between flex array's poisoned kmem and slab allocator poisoned
kmem.
This will allow us to identify flex_array_part's that only contain free
elements (and free them with an addition to the flex_array API). This
could also be extended in the future to identify `get' uses on elements
that have not been `put'.
If __GFP_ZERO is passed for a part's gfp mask, the poisoning is avoided.

Fix the menu idle governor which balances power savings, energy efficiency
and performance impact.
The reason for a reworked governor is that there have been serious
performance issues reported with the existing code on Nehalem server
systems.
To show this I'm sure Andrew wants to see benchmark results:
(benchmark is "fio", "no cstates" is using "idle=poll")
no cstates current linux new algorithm
1 disk 107 Mb/s 85 Mb/s 105 Mb/s
2 disks 215 Mb/s 123 Mb/s 209 Mb/s
12 disks 590 Mb/s 320 Mb/s 585 Mb/s
In various power benchmark measurements, no degredation was found by our
measurement&diagnostics team. Obviously a small percentage more power was
used in the "fio" benchmark, due to the much higher performance.
While it would be a novel idea to describe the new algorithm in this
commit message, I cheaped out and described it in comments in the code
instead.

This patchset adds a flag to mmap that allows the user to request that an
anonymous mapping be backed with huge pages. This mapping will borrow
functionality from the huge page shm code to create a file on the kernel
internal mount and use it to approximate an anonymous mapping. The
MAP_HUGETLB flag is a modifier to MAP_ANONYMOUS and will not work without
both flags being preset.
A new flag is necessary because there is no other way to hook into huge
pages without creating a file on a hugetlbfs mount which wouldn't be
MAP_ANONYMOUS.
To userspace, this mapping will behave just like an anonymous mapping
because the file is not accessible outside of the kernel.
This patchset is meant to simplify the programming model. Presently there
is a large chunk of boiler platecode, contained in libhugetlbfs, required
to create private, hugepage backed mappings. This patch set would allow
use of hugepages without linking to libhugetlbfs or having hugetblfs
mounted.
Unification of the VM code would provide these same benefits, but it has
been resisted each time that it has been suggested for several reasons: it
would break PAGE_SIZE assumptions across the kernel, it makes page-table
abstractions really expensive, and it does not provide any benefit on
architectures that do not support huge pages, incurring fast path
penalties without providing any benefit on these architectures.
This patch:
There are two means of creating mappings backed by huge pages:
1. mmap() a file created on hugetlbfs
2. Use shm which creates a file on an internal mount which essentially
maps it MAP_SHARED
The internal mount is only used for shared mappings but there is very
little that stops it being used for private mappings. This patch extends
hugetlbfs_file_setup() to deal with the creation of files that will be
mapped MAP_PRIVATE on the internal hugetlbfs mount. This extended API is
used in a subsequent patch to implement the MAP_HUGETLB mmap() flag.

CONFIG_TMPFS is off: that's a little anomalous, and I'd intended to make
more sense of it by removing CONFIG_TMPFS altogether, always enabling its
code when CONFIG_SHMEM; but so many defconfigs have CONFIG_SHMEM on
CONFIG_TMPFS off that we'd better leave that as is.
But there is no point in asking for CONFIG_TMPFS if CONFIG_SHMEM is off:
make TMPFS depend on SHMEM, which also prevents TMPFS_POSIX_ACL
shmem_acl.o being pointlessly built into the kernel when SHMEM is off.
And a selfish change, to prevent the world from being rebuilt when I
switch between CONFIG_SHMEM on and off: the only CONFIG_SHMEM in the
header files is mm.h shmem_lock() - give that a shmem.c stub instead.

__get_user_pages() has been taking its own GUP flags, then processing
them into FOLL flags for follow_page(). Though oddly named, the FOLL
flags are more widely used, so pass them to __get_user_pages() now.
Sorry, VM flags, VM_FAULT flags and FAULT_FLAGs are still distinct.
(The patch to __get_user_pages() looks peculiar, with both gup_flags
and foll_flags: the gup_flags remain constant; but as before there's
an exceptional case, out of scope of the patch, in which foll_flags
per page have FOLL_WRITE masked off.)

follow_hugetlb_page() shouldn't be guessing about the coredump case
either: pass the foll_flags down to it, instead of just the write bit.
Remove that obscure huge_zeropage_ok() test. The decision is easy,
though unlike the non-huge case - here vm_ops->fault is always set.
But we know that a fault would serve up zeroes, unless there's
already a hugetlbfs pagecache page to back the range.
(Alternatively, since hugetlb pages aren't swapped out under pressure,
you could save more dump space by arguing that a page not yet faulted
into this process cannot be relevant to the dump; but that would be
more surprising.)

The "FOLL_ANON optimization" and its use_zero_page() test have caused
confusion and bugs: why does it test VM_SHARED? for the very good but
unsatisfying reason that VMware crashed without. As we look to maybe
reinstating anonymous use of the ZERO_PAGE, we need to sort this out.
Easily done: it's silly for __get_user_pages() and follow_page() to
be guessing whether it's safe to assume that they're being used for
a coredump (which can take a shortcut snapshot where other uses must
handle a fault) - just tell them with GUP_FLAGS_DUMP and FOLL_DUMP.
get_dump_page() doesn't even want a ZERO_PAGE: an error suits fine.

In preparation for the next patch, add a simple get_dump_page(addr)
interface for the CONFIG_ELF_CORE dumpers to use, instead of calling
get_user_pages() directly. They're not interested in errors: they
just want to use holes as much as possible, to save space and make
sure that the data is aligned where the headers said it would be.
Oh, and don't use that horrid DUMP_SEEK(off) macro!
