The cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API was funny in that it returned either
the original, user-exposed futex value OR an error code such as -EFAULT.
This was confusing at best, and could be a source of livelocks in places
that retry the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked after trying to fix the issue
by running fault_in_user_writeable().
This change makes the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API more similar to the
get_futex_value_locked one, returning an error code and updating the
original value through a reference argument.

This patch is a rework of the hwsampler oprofile implementation that
has been applied recently. Now there are less non-architectural
changes. The only changes are:
* introduction of oprofile_add_ext_hw_sample(), and
* removal of section attributes of oprofile_timer_init/_exit().
To setup hwsampler for oprofile we need to modify start()/stop()
callbacks and additional hwsampler control files in oprofilefs. We do
not reinitialize the timer or hwsampler mode by restarting calling
init/exit() anymore, instead hwsampler_running is used to switch the
mode directly in oprofile_hwsampler_start/_stop(). For locking reasons
there is also hwsampler_file that reflects the value in oprofilefs.
The overall diffstat of the oprofile s390 hwsampler implemenation
shows the low impact to non-architectural code:

OProfile is enhanced to export all files for controlling System z's
hardware sampling, and to invoke hwsampler exported functions to
initialize and use System z's hardware sampling.
The patch invokes hwsampler_setup() during oprofile init and exports
following hwsampler files under oprofilefs if hwsampler's setup
succeeded:
A new directory for hardware sampling based files
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/
The userland daemon must explicitly write to the following files
to disable (or enable) hardware based sampling
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hwsampler
to modify the actual sampling rate
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_interval
to modify the amount of sampling memory (measured in 4K pages)
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_sdbt_blocks
The following files are read only and show
the possible minimum sampling rate
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_min_interval
the possible maximum sampling rate
/dev/oprofile/hwsampling/hw_max_interval
The patch splits the oprofile_timer_[init/exit] function so that it
can be also called through user context (oprofilefs) to avoid kernel
oops.

This adds support for hardware based sampling on System z processors
(models z10 and up).
System z's hardware sampling is described in detail in:
SA23-2260-01 "The Load-Program-Parameter and CPU-Measurement Facilities"
The patch introduces
- support for System z's hardware sampler in OProfile's kernel module
- it adds functions that control all hardware sampling related
operations as:
- checking if hardware sampling feature is available, i.e.: on
System z models z10 and up, in LPAR mode only, and authorised
during LPAR activation
- allocating memory for the hardware sampling feature
- starting/stopping hardware sampling
All functions required to start and stop hardware sampling have to be
invoked by the oprofile kernel module as provided by the other patches
of this patch set.
In case hardware based sampling cannot be setup standard timer based
sampling is used by OProfile.

The vdso object is currently always mapped with mm->mmap_base used as
requested address. In case of flexible mmap layout this means it gets
mapped above mmap_base and therefore potentially stealing a bit of
address space that is reserved for the stack.
In case of flexible mmap layout the object should be mapped below
mmap base. For legacy mmap layout above.
To fix this just don't request any specific address and let the mmap
code figure out an address that fits.
