Expand macro into two files.
The synchronize_rcu_xxx macro is quite ugly and it's only used by two
callers, so expand it instead. This makes this code easier to change.

Impact: fix kernel warnings [and potential crash] during suspend+resume
Kudos to both Dhaval Giani and Jens Axboe for finding a bug in treercu
that causes warnings after suspend-resume cycles in Dhaval's case and
during stress tests in Jens's case. It would also probably cause failures
if heavily stressed. The solution, ironically enough, is to revert to
rcupreempt's code for initializing the dynticks state. And the patch
even results in smaller code -- so what was I thinking???
This is 2.6.29 material, given that people really do suspend and resume
Linux these days. ;-)

Impact: fix delays during bootup
Kudos to Andi Kleen for finding a grace-period-latency problem! The
problem was that the special-case code for small machines never updated
the ->signaled field to indicate that grace-period initialization had
completed, which prevented force_quiescent_state() from ever expediting
grace periods. This problem resulted in grace periods extending for more
than 20 seconds. Not subtle. I introduced this bug during my inspection
process when I fixed a race between grace-period initialization and
force_quiescent_state() execution.
The following patch properly updates the ->signaled field for the
"small"-system case (no more than 32 CPUs for 32-bit kernels and no more
than 64 CPUs for 64-bit kernels).

Impact: prevents panic from stack overflow on numa-capable machines.
Some of the "removal of stack hogs" changes in kernel/sched.c by using
node_to_cpumask_ptr were undone by the early cpumask API updates, and
causes a panic due to stack overflow. This patch undoes those changes
by using cpumask_of_node() which returns a 'const struct cpumask *'.
In addition, cpu_coregoup_map is replaced with cpu_coregroup_mask further
reducing stack usage. (Both of these updates removed 9 FIXME's!)
Also:
Pick up some remaining changes from the old 'cpumask_t' functions to
the new 'struct cpumask *' functions.
Optimize memory traffic by allocating each percpu local_cpu_mask on the
same node as the referring cpu.

Impact: Reduce stack usage, use new cpumask API.
Mainly changing cpumask_t to 'struct cpumask' and similar simple API
conversion. Two conversions worth mentioning:

2) Use cpumask_var_t in taskstats_user_cmd().

Impact: Reduce kernel stack and memory usage, use new cpumask API.
Use cpumask_var_t for take_cpu_down() stack var, and frozen_cpus.
Note that notify_cpu_starting() can be called before core_initcall
allocates frozen_cpus, but the NULL check is optimized out by gcc for
the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n case.

Impact: Reduce kernel memory usage, use new cpumask API.
Avoid a static cpumask_t for prof_cpu_mask, and an on-stack cpumask_t
in prof_cpu_mask_write_proc. Both become cpumask_var_t.
prof_cpu_mask is only allocated when profiling is on, but the NULL
checks are optimized out by gcc for the !CPUMASK_OFFSTACK case.
Also removed some strange and unnecessary casts.

Impact: use new cpumask API.
rcu_ctrlblk contains a cpumask, and it's highly optimized so I don't want
a cpumask_var_t (ie. a pointer) for the CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK case. It
could use a dangling bitmap, and be allocated in __rcu_init to save memory,
but for the moment we use a bitmap.
(Eventually 'struct cpumask' will be undefined for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK,
so we use a bitmap here to show we really mean it).
We remove on-stack cpumasks, using cpumask_var_t for
rcu_torture_shuffle_tasks() and for_each_cpu_and in force_quiescent_state().

Impact: cleanup
In future, all cpumask ops will only be valid (in general) for bit
numbers < nr_cpu_ids. So use that instead of NR_CPUS in iterators
and other comparisons.
This is always safe: no cpu number can be >= nr_cpu_ids, and
nr_cpu_ids is initialized to NR_CPUS at boot.

The cpu time spent by the idle process actually doing something is
currently accounted as idle time. This is plain wrong, the architectures
that support VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING=y can do better: distinguish between the
time spent doing nothing and the time spent by idle doing work. The first
is accounted with account_idle_time and the second with account_system_time.
The architectures that use the account_xxx_time interface directly and not
the account_xxx_ticks interface now need to do the check for the idle
process in their arch code. In particular to improve the system vs true
idle time accounting the arch code needs to measure the true idle time
instead of just testing for the idle process.
To improve the tick based accounting as well we would need an architecture
primitive that can tell us if the pt_regs of the interrupted context
points to the magic instruction that halts the cpu.
In addition idle time is no more added to the stime of the idle process.
This field now contains the system time of the idle process as it should
be. On systems without VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING this will always be zero as
every tick that occurs while idle is running will be accounted as idle
time.
This patch contains the necessary common code changes to be able to
distinguish idle system time and true idle time. The architectures with
support for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING need some changes to exploit this.

The utimescaled / stimescaled fields in the task structure and the
global cpustat should be set on all architectures. On s390 the calls
to account_user_time_scaled and account_system_time_scaled never have
been added. In addition system time that is accounted as guest time
to the user time of a process is accounted to the scaled system time
instead of the scaled user time.
To fix the bugs and to prevent future forgetfulness this patch merges
account_system_time_scaled into account_system_time and
account_user_time_scaled into account_user_time.

Impact: Implementation change to remove cpumask_t from stack.
Actually change smp_call_function_mask() to smp_call_function_many().
We avoid cpumasks on the stack in this version.
(S390 has its own version, but that's going away apparently).
We have to do some dancing to figure out if 0 or 1 other cpus are in
the mask supplied and the online mask without allocating a tmp
cpumask. It's still fairly cheap.
We allocate the cpumask at the end of the call_function_data
structure: if allocation fails we fallback to smp_call_function_single
rather than using the baroque quiescing code (which needs a cpumask on
stack).

Stephen Rothwell points out that gcc 4.2.4 (on powerpc at least)
didn't like the cast away of const anyway:
include/linux/cpumask.h: In function 'set_cpu_possible':
include/linux/cpumask.h:1052: warning: passing argument 2 of 'cpumask_set_cpu' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
So this kills two birds with one stone.

Impact: cleanup
This implements the obsolescent cpu_online_map in terms of
cpu_online_mask, rather than the other way around. Same for the other
maps.
The documentation comments are also updated to refer to _mask rather
than _map.

GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in
the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to
inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override
the weak alias with the real thing.
So move all the IRQ handling related __weak symbols to kernel/irq/chip.c.

The mm->ioctx_list is currently protected by a reader-writer lock,
so we always grab that lock on the read side for doing ioctx
lookups. As the workload is extremely reader biased, turn this into
an rcu hlist so we can make lookup_ioctx() lockless. Get rid of
the rwlock and use a spinlock for providing update side exclusion.
There's usually only 1 entry on this list, so it doesn't make sense
to look into fancier data structures.

When taking recursive faults in do_exit, if the io_context is not null,
exit_io_context() is being called. But it might decrement the refcount
more than once. It is better to leave this task alone.

Impact: fix boot crash if the kernel is built with certain GCC versions
GCC has a bug with __weak alias functions: if the functions are in
the same compilation unit as their call site, GCC can decide to
inline them - and thus rob the linker of the opportunity to override
the weak alias with the real thing.
This can lead to the boot crash reported by Kamalesh Babulal:
ACPI: Core revision 20080926
Setting APIC routing to flat
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
0000000000000000
IP: [<ffffffff8021f9a8>] add_pin_to_irq_cpu+0x14/0x74
PGD 0
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
[...]
So move the arch_init_chip_data() function from handle.c to manage.c.
