kvm reloads the host's fs and gs blindly, however the underlying segment
descriptors may be invalid due to the user modifying the ldt after loading
them.
Fix by using the safe accessors (loadsegment() and load_gs_index()) instead

Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

The config option used by archs to let the build system know that
the C version of the recordmcount works for said arch is currently
called HAVE_C_MCOUNT_RECORD which enables BUILD_C_RECORDMCOUNT. To
be more consistent with the name that all archs may use, it has been
renamed to HAVE_C_RECORDMCOUNT. This will be less confusing since
we are building a C recordmcount and not a mcount_record.

In x86, faults exit by executing the iret instruction, which then
reenables NMIs if we faulted in NMI context. Then if a fault
happens in NMI, another NMI can nest after the fault exits.
But we don't yet support nested NMIs because we have only one NMI
stack. To prevent from that, check that vmalloc and kmemcheck
faults don't happen in this context. Most of the other kernel faults
in NMIs can be more easily spotted by finding explicit
copy_from,to_user() calls on review.

akiphie points out that a.out core-dumps have that odd task struct
dumping that was never used and was never really a good idea (it goes
back into the mists of history, probably the original core-dumping
code). Just remove it.
Also do the access_ok() check on dump_write(). It probably doesn't
matter (since normal filesystems all seem to do it anyway), but he
points out that it's normally done by the VFS layer, so ...
[ I suspect that we should possibly do "vfs_write()" instead of
calling ->write directly. That also does the whole fsnotify and write
statistics thing, which may or may not be a good idea. ]
And just to be anal, do this all for the x86-64 32-bit a.out emulation
code too, even though it's not enabled (and won't currently even
compile)

| SRAT: Node 1 PXM 1 800000000-1000000000
| SRAT: Node 0 PXM 0 1000000000-1080000000

|Previously, the kernel early_node_map[] would show three entries

contains an extended range which spans all memory regions associated
with a node, but that does not mean that all the memory in between are
included.

This fixes possible cases of not collecting valid error info in
the MCE error thresholding groups on F10h hardware.
The current code contains a subtle problem of checking only the
Valid bit of MSR0000_0413 (which is MC4_MISC0 - DRAM
thresholding group) in its first iteration and breaking out if
the bit is cleared.
But (!), this MSR contains an offset value, BlkPtr[31:24], which
points to the remaining MSRs in this thresholding group which
might contain valid information too. But if we bail out only
after we checked the valid bit in the first MSR and not the
block pointer too, we miss that other information.
The thing is, MC4_MISC0[BlkPtr] is not predicated on
MCi_STATUS[MiscV] or MC4_MISC0[Valid] and should be checked
prior to iterating over the MCI_MISCj thresholding group,
irrespective of the MC4_MISC0[Valid] setting.

With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.
However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling. That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.
Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.
So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.
Future fixups:
- move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
belongs.
- get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
(called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
for other reasons.

tracing/x86: Don't use mcount in pvclock.c
While debugging bit_spin_lock() hang, it was tracked down to gcc-4.4
misoptimization of non-inlined constant_test_bit() due to non-volatile
addr when 'const volatile unsigned long *addr' cast to 'unsigned long *'
with subsequent unconditional jump to pause (and not to the test) leading
to hang.
Compiling with gcc-4.3 or disabling CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING yields inlined
constant_test_bit() and correct jump, thus working around the kernel bug.
Other arches than asm-x86 may implement this slightly differently;
2.6.29 mitigates the misoptimization by changing the function prototype
(commit c4295fbb60) but probably fixing the issue
itself is better.
