Only works for the generic request timer handling. Allows one to

DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT shuffles SCSI and IDE device numbers and root
device number set using rdev become meaningless.  Root devices should
be explicitly specified using textual names.  Warn about it if root
can't be found and DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT is enabled.  Also, add warning

870d665612 block: implement CONFIG_DEBUG_BLOCK_EXT_DEVT
Extended devt introduces non-contiguos device numbers.  This patch
implements a debug option which forces most devt allocations to be
from the extended area and spreads them out.  This is enabled by
default if DEBUG_KERNEL is set and achieves...

1. Detects code paths in kernel or userland which expect predetermined
   consecutive device numbers.

2. When something goes wrong, avoid corruption as adding to the minor
   of earlier partition won't lead to the wrong but valid device.

a1ed5b0cff klist: don't iterate over deleted entries
A klist entry is kept on the list till all its current iterations are
finished; however, a new iteration after deletion also iterates over
deleted entries as long as their reference count stays above zero.
This causes problems for cases where there are users which iterate
over the list while synchronized against list manipulations and
natuarally expect already deleted entries to not show up during
iteration.

This patch implements dead flag which gets set on deletion so that
iteration can skip already deleted entries.  The dead flag piggy backs
on the lowest bit of knode->n_klist and only visible to klist
implementation proper.

While at it, drop klist_iter->i_head as it's redundant and doesn't
offer anything in semantics or performance wise as klist_iter->i_klist
is dereferenced on every iteration anyway.

3c9f3681d0 [SCSI] lib: add generic helper to print sizes rounded to the correct SI range
This patch adds the ability to print sizes in either units of 10^3 (SI)
or 2^10 (Binary) units.  It rounds up to three significant figures and
can be used for either memory or storage capacities.

Oh, and I'm fully aware that 64 bits is only 16EiB ... the Zetta and
Yotta units are added for future proofing against the day we have 128
bit computers ...

2133b5d7ff rcu: RCU-based detection of stalled CPUs for Classic RCU
This patch adds stalled-CPU detection to Classic RCU.  This capability
is enabled by a new config variable CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR, which
defaults disabled.

This is a debugging feature to detect infinite loops in kernel code, not
something that non-kernel-hackers would be expected to care about.

This feature can detect looping CPUs in !PREEMPT builds and looping CPUs
with preemption disabled in PREEMPT builds.  This is essentially a port of
this functionality from the treercu patch, replacing the stall debug patch
that is already in tip/core/rcu (commit 67182ae1c4).

The changes from the patch in tip/core/rcu include making the config
variable name match that in treercu, changing from seconds to jiffies to
avoid spurious warnings, and printing a boot message when this feature
is enabled.

d26dbc5cf9 iommu: export iommu_area_reserve helper function
x86 has set_bit_string() that does the exact same thing that
set_bit_area() in lib/iommu-helper.c does.

This patch exports set_bit_area() in lib/iommu-helper.c as
iommu_area_reserve(), converts GART, Calgary, and AMD IOMMU to use it.

ccbe329bcd bitmap: add bitmap_copy_le()
bitmap_copy_le() copies a bitmap, putting the bits into little-endian
order (i.e., each unsigned long word in the bitmap is put into
little-endian order).

The UWB stack used bitmaps to manage Medium Access Slot availability,
and these bitmaps need to be written to the hardware in LE order.

50bed2e286 sg: disable interrupts inside sg_copy_buffer
The callers of sg_copy_buffer must disable interrupts before calling
it (since it uses kmap_atomic). Some callers use it on
interrupt-disabled code but some need to take the trouble to disable
interrupts just for this. No wonder they forget about it and we hit a
bug like:

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11529

James said that it might be better to disable interrupts inside the
function rather than risk the callers getting it wrong.

36223a399f swiotlb: fix back-off path when memory allocation fails
This fixes a SWIOTLB oops

With SWIOTLB being enabled and straight-forward page allocation
failure [1], the swiotlb_alloc_coherent fall-back path hits an
issue [2], resulting in my webcam failing to work.

At the time of oops, RDI is clearly a pointer to a structure which
has arrived as NULL, leading to the typo in swiotlb_map_single's
callsite arguments.

Correctly passing the device structure [3] addresses the issue and
gets my webcam working again (the allocation failure still occuring).

1b2439dbb7 debug: add notifier chain debugging
during some development we suspected a case where we left something
in a notifier chain that was from a module that was unloaded already...
and that sort of thing is rather hard to track down.

This patch adds a very simple sanity check (which isn't all that
expensive) to make sure the notifier we're about to call is
actually from either the kernel itself of from a still-loaded
module, avoiding a hard-to-chase-down crash.

deac93df26 lib: Correct printk %pF to work on all architectures
It was introduced by "vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer
formats" in commit 0fe1ef24f7.  However,
the current way its coded doesn't work on parisc64.  For two reasons: 1)
parisc isn't in the #ifdef and 2) parisc has a different format for
function descriptors

Make dereference_function_descriptor() more accommodating by allowing
architecture overrides.  I put the three overrides (for parisc64, ppc64
and ia64) in arch/kernel/module.c because that's where the kernel
internal linker which knows how to deal with function descriptors sits.

7563dc6458 powerpc: Work around gcc's -fno-omit-frame-pointer bug
This bug is causing random crashes
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11414).

-fno-omit-frame-pointer is only needed on powerpc when -pg is also
supplied, and there is a gcc bug that causes incorrect code generation
on 32-bit powerpc when -fno-omit-frame-pointer is used---it uses stack
locations below the stack pointer, which is not allowed by the ABI
because those locations can and sometimes do get corrupted by an
interrupt.

This ensures that CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is only selected by ftrace.
When CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled we also pass -mno-sched-epilog to work
around the gcc codegen bug.

We fix it by moving the actual freeing to outside the lock (the lock
now only protects the list).

The pool lock is also promoted to irq-safe (suggested by Dan). It's
necessary because free_pool is now called outside the irq disabled
region. So we need to protect against an interrupt handler which calls
debug_object_init().

taking the fbc->lock to calculate the precise value of the counter in

percpu_counter_sum_and_set() does.

a allnoconfig build in kernel/*.

  36243       0       0   36243    8d93 kernel/sysctl_check.o

This is because it was default y and && EMBEDDED. But I don't
really see a need for a non kernel developer to have their
sysctls checked all the time.

So move the Kconfig into the kernel debugging section and
also drop the default y and the EMBEDDED check.

ebb1951d36 lmb: Fix reserved region handling in lmb_enforce_memory_limit().
The idea of the implementation of this fix is from Michael Ellerman.

This function has two loops, but they each interpret the memory_limit
value differently.  The first loop interprets it as a "size limit"
whereas the second loop interprets it as an "address limit".

Before the second loop runs, reset memory_limit to lmb_end_of_DRAM()
so that it all works out.

3794f3e812 docsrc: build Documentation/ sources
Currently source files in the Documentation/ sub-dir can easily bit-rot
since they are not generally buildable, either because they are hidden in
text files or because there are no Makefile rules for them.  This needs to
be fixed so that the source files remain usable and good examples of code
instead of bad examples.

Add the ability to build source files that are in the Documentation/ dir.
Add to Kconfig as "BUILD_DOCSRC" config symbol.

Use "CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC=1 make ..." to build objects from the
Documentation/ sources.  Or enable BUILD_DOCSRC in the *config system.
However, this symbol depends on HEADERS_CHECK since the header files need
to be installed (for userspace builds).

Built (using cross-tools) for x86-64, i386, alpha, ia64, sparc32,
sparc64, powerpc, sh, m68k, & mips.

50ac2d694f seq_file: add seq_cpumask(), seq_nodemask()
Short enough reads from /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity return -EINVAL for no
good reason.

This became noticed with NR_CPUS=4096 patches, when length of printed
representation of cpumask becase 1152, but cat(1) continued to read with
1024-byte chunks.  bitmap_scnprintf() in good faith fills buffer, returns
1023, check returns -EINVAL.

Fix it by switching to seq_file, so handler will just fill buffer and
doesn't care about offsets, length, filling EOF and all this crap.

For that add seq_bitmap(), and wrappers around it -- seq_cpumask() and
seq_nodemask().

67182ae1c4 rcu, debug: detect stalled grace periods
this is a diagnostic patch for Classic RCU.

The approach is to record a timestamp at the beginning
of the grace period (in rcu_start_batch()), then have
rcu_check_callbacks() complain if:

 1.	it is running on a CPU that has holding up grace periods for
 	a long time (say one second).  This will identify the culprit
 	assuming that the culprit has not disabled hardware irqs,
 	instruction execution, or some such.

 2.	it is running on a CPU that is not holding up grace periods,
 	but grace periods have been held up for an even longer time
 	(say two seconds).

It is enabled via the default-off CONFIG_DEBUG_RCU_STALL kernel parameter.

Rather than exponential backoff, it backs off to once per 30 seconds.
My feeling upon thinking on it was that if you have stalled RCU grace
periods for that long, a few extra printk() messages are probably the
least of your worries...

8d8bb39b9e dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
architecture does:

This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).

I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.

A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.

If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
dma_mapping_ops per device.

The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
dma_mapping_error functions.

The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
all the architecture.

This patch:

dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.

Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
argument.

2d6ffcca62 inflate: refactor inflate malloc code
Inflate requires some dynamic memory allocation very early in the boot
process and this is provided with a set of four functions:
malloc/free/gzip_mark/gzip_release.

The old inflate code used a mark/release strategy rather than implement
free.  This new version instead keeps a count on the number of outstanding
allocations and when it hits zero, it resets the malloc arena.

This allows removing all the mark and release implementations and unifying
all the malloc/free implementations.

The architecture-dependent code must define two addresses:
 - free_mem_ptr, the address of the beginning of the area in which
   allocations should be made
 - free_mem_end_ptr, the address of the end of the area in which
   allocations should be made. If set to 0, then no check is made on
   the number of allocations, it just grows as much as needed

The architecture-dependent code can also provide an arch_decomp_wdog()
function call.  This function will be called several times during the
decompression process, and allow to notify the watchdog that the system is
still running.  If an architecture provides such a call, then it must
define ARCH_HAS_DECOMP_WDOG so that the generic inflate code calls
arch_decomp_wdog().

Work initially done by Matt Mackall, updated to a recent version of the
kernel and improved by me.

fd19382974 lib: allow memparse() to accept a NULL and ignorable second parm
Extend memparse() to allow the caller to use a NULL second parameter, which
would represent no interest in returning the address of the end of the parsed
string.

In numerous cases, callers invoke memparse() to parse a possibly-suffixed
string (such as "64K" or "2G" or whatever) and define a character pointer to
accept the end pointer being returned by memparse() even though they have no
interest in it and promptly throw it away.

This (backward-compatible) enhancement allows callers to use NULL in the cases
where they just don't care about getting back that end pointer.

This updates <linux/bcd.h> to define the key routines as constant
functions, which the macros will then call.  Newer code can now call
bcd2bin() instead of SCREAMING BCD2BIN() TO THE FOUR WINDS.

This lets each driver shrink their codespace by using N function calls to
a single (global) copy of those routines, instead of N inlined copies of
these functions per driver.

These routines aren't used in speed-critical code.  Almost all callers are
in the RTC framework.  Typical per-driver savings is near 300 bytes.

6b74ab97bc mm: add a basic debugging framework for memory initialisation
Boot initialisation is very complex, with significant numbers of
architecture-specific routines, hooks and code ordering.  While significant
amounts of the initialisation is architecture-independent, it trusts the data
received from the architecture layer.  This is a mistake, and has resulted in
a number of difficult-to-diagnose bugs.

This patchset adds some validation and tracing to memory initialisation.  It
also introduces a few basic defensive measures.  The validation code can be
explicitly disabled for embedded systems.

This patch:

Add additional debugging and verification code for memory initialisation.

Once enabled, the verification checks are always run and when required
additional debugging information may be outputted via a mminit_loglevel=
command-line parameter.

The verification code is placed in a new file mm/mm_init.c.  Ideally other mm
initialisation code will be moved here over time.

137d3edb48 sg: reimplement sg mapping iterator
This is alternative implementation of sg content iterator introduced
by commit 83e7d317... from Pierre Ossman in next-20080716.  As there's
already an sg iterator which iterates over sg entries themselves, name
this sg_mapping_iterator.

Slightly edited description from the original implementation follows.

Iteration over a sg list is not that trivial when you take into
account that memory pages might have to be mapped before being used.
Unfortunately, that means that some parts of the kernel restrict
themselves to directly accesible memory just to not have to deal with
the mess.

This patch adds a simple iterator system that allows any code to
easily traverse an sg list and not have to deal with all the details.
The user can decide to consume part of the iteration.  Also, iteration
can be stopped and resumed later if releasing the kmap between
iteration steps is necessary.  These features are useful to implement
piecemeal sg copying for interrupt drive PIO for example.

2464a609de ftrace: do not trace library functions
make function tracing more robust: do not trace library functions.

We've already got a sizable list of exceptions:

 ifdef CONFIG_FTRACE
 # Do not profile string.o, since it may be used in early boot or vdso
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_string.o = -pg
 # Also do not profile any debug utilities
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_spinlock_debug.o = -pg
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_list_debug.o = -pg
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_debugobjects.o = -pg
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_find_next_bit.o = -pg
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_cpumask.o = -pg
 CFLAGS_REMOVE_bitmap.o = -pg
 endif

... and the pattern has been that random library functionality showed
up in ftrace's critical path (outside of its recursion check), causing
hard to debug lockups.

So be a bit defensive about it and exclude all lib/*.o functions by
default. It's not that they are overly interesting for tracing purposes
anyway. Specific ones can still be traced, in an opt-in manner.

0fe1ef24f7 vsprintf: add support for '%pS' and '%pF' pointer formats
They print out a pointer in symbolic format, if possible (ie using
symbolic KALLSYMS information).  The '%pS' format is for regular direct
pointers (which can point to data or code and that you find on the stack
during backtraces etc), while '%pF' is for C function pointer types.

On most architectures, the two mean exactly the same thing, but some
architectures use an indirect pointer for C function pointers, where the
function pointer points to a function descriptor (which in turn contains
the actual pointer to the code).  The '%pF' code automatically does the
appropriate function descriptor dereference on such architectures.

4d8a743cdd vsprintf: add infrastructure support for extended '%p' specifiers
This expands the kernel '%p' handling with an arbitrary alphanumberic
specifier extension string immediately following the '%p'.  Right now
it's just being ignored, but the next commit will start adding some
specific pointer type extensions.

NOTE! The reason the extension is appended to the '%p' is to allow
minimal gcc type checking: gcc will still see the '%p' and will check
that the argument passed in is indeed a pointer, and yet will not
complain about the extended information that gcc doesn't understand
about (on the other hand, it also won't actually check that the pointer
type and the extension are compatible).

Alphanumeric characters were chosen because there is no sane existing
use for a string format with a hex pointer representation immediately
followed by alphanumerics (which is what such a format string would have
traditionally resulted in).

da9eac8990 lib: taint kernel in common report_bug() WARN path.
Commit 95b570c9ce ("Taint kernel after
WARN_ON(condition)") introduced a TAINT_WARN that was implemented for
all architectures using the generic warn_on_slowpath(), which excluded
any architecture that set HAVE_ARCH_WARN_ON.

As all of the architectures that implement their own WARN_ON() all go
through the report_bug() path (specifically handling BUG_TRAP_TYPE_WARN),
taint the kernel there as well for consistency.

Tested on avr32 and sh. Also relevant for s390, parisc, and powerpc.

31a72bce0b rcu: make rcutorture more vicious: reinstate boot-time testing
This patch re-institutes the ability to build rcutorture directly into
the Linux kernel.  The reason that this capability was removed was that
this could result in your kernel being pretty much useless, as rcutorture
would be running starting from early boot.  This problem has been avoided
by (1) making rcutorture run only three seconds of every six by default,
(2) adding a CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_RUNNABLE that permits rcutorture
to be quiesced at boot time, and (3) adding a sysctl in /proc named
/proc/sys/kernel/rcutorture_runnable that permits rcutorture to be
quiesced and unquiesced when built into the kernel.

Please note that this /proc file is -not- available when rcutorture
is built as a module.  Please also note that to get the earlier
take-no-prisoners behavior, you must use the boot command line to set
rcutorture's "stutter" parameter to zero.

The rcutorture quiescing mechanism is currently quite crude: loops
in each rcutorture process that poll a global variable once per tick.
Suggestions for improvement are welcome.  The default action will
be to reduce the polling rate to a few times per second.

50db04dd9c debugobjects: fix lockdep warning
Daniel J Blueman reported:
| =======================================================
| [ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
| 2.6.26-rc5-201c #1
| -------------------------------------------------------
| nscd/3669 is trying to acquire lock:
|  (&n->list_lock){.+..}, at: [<ffffffff802bab03>] deactivate_slab+0x173/0x1e0
|
| but task is already holding lock:
|  (&obj_hash[i].lock){++..}, at: [<ffffffff803fa56f>]
| __debug_object_init+0x2f/0x350
|
| which lock already depends on the new lock.

There are two locks involved here; the first is a SLUB-local lock, and
the second is a debugobjects-local lock. They are basically taken in two
different orders:

1. SLUB { debugobjects { ... } }
2. debugobjects { SLUB { ... } }

This patch changes pattern #2 by trying to fill the memory pool (e.g.
the call into SLUB/kmalloc()) outside the debugobjects lock, so now the
two patterns look like this:

1. SLUB { debugobjects { ... } }
2. SLUB { } debugobjects { ... }

1462a20005 Revert "prohibit rcutorture from being compiled into the kernel"
This reverts commit 9aaffc898f.

That commit was a very bad idea. RCU_TORTURE found many boot timing
bugs and other sorts of bugs in the past, so excluding it from
boot images is very silly.

The option already depends on DEBUG_KERNEL and is disabled by default.
Even when it runs, the test threads are reniced. If it annoys people
we could add a runtime sysctl.

643b52b9c0 radix-tree: fix small lockless radix-tree bug
We shrink a radix tree when its root node has only one child, in the left
most slot.  The child becomes the new root node.  To perform this
operation in a manner compatible with concurrent lockless lookups, we
atomically switch the root pointer from the parent to its child.

However a concurrent lockless lookup may now have loaded a pointer to the
parent (and is presently deciding what to do next).  For this reason, we
also have to keep the parent node in a valid state after shrinking the
tree, until the next RCU grace period -- otherwise this lookup with the
parent pointer may not do the right thing.  Notably, we need to keep the
child in the left most slot there in case that is requested by the lookup.

This is all pretty standard RCU stuff.  It is worth repeating because in
my eagerness to obey the radix tree node constructor scheme, I had broken
it by zeroing the radix tree node before the grace period.

What could happen is that a lookup can load the parent pointer, then
decide it wants to follow the left most child slot, only to find the slot
contained NULL due to the concurrent shrinker having zeroed the parent
node before waiting for a grace period.  The lookup would return a false
negative as a result.

Fix it by doing that clearing in the RCU callback.  I would normally want
to rip out the constructor entirely, but radix tree nodes are one of those
places where they make sense (only few cachelines will be touched soon
after allocation).

This was never actually found in any lockless pagecache testing or by the
test harness, but by seeing the odd problem with my scalable vmap rewrite.
 I have not tickled the test harness into reproducing it yet, but I'll
keep working at it.

Fortunately, it is not a problem anywhere lockless pagecache is used in
mainline kernels (pagecache probe is not a guarantee, and brd does not
have concurrent lookups and deletes).

f595ec964d common implementation of iterative div/mod
We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.

The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
gcc from performing the transformation.

This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
to replace the open-coded versions I know about.

also, automated tests work better if the system reboots reliably (into

The debug smp_processor_id caused a recursive fault in debugging
the irqsoff tracer. The tracer used a smp_processor_id in the
ftrace callback, and this function called preempt_disable which
also is traced. This caused a recursive fault (stack overload).

Since using smp_processor_id without debugging on does not cause
faults with the tracer (even when the tracer is wrong), the
debug version should not cause a system reboot.

This changes the debug_smp_processor_id to use the notrace versions
of preempt_disable and enable.

If CONFIG_FTRACE is selected and /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled is

we enter a kernel function that is not marked with the "notrace"

The ftrace routine will then call a registered function if a function
happens to be registered.

[ This code has been highly hacked by Steven Rostedt and Ingo Molnar,
  so don't blame Arnaldo for all of this ;-) ]

Update:
  It is now possible to register more than one ftrace function.
  If only one ftrace function is registered, that will be the
  function that ftrace calls directly. If more than one function
  is registered, then ftrace will call a function that will loop
  through the functions to call.

41df0d61c2 x86: Add performance variants of cpumask operators
* Increase performance for systems with large count NR_CPUS by limiting
    the range of the cpumask operators that loop over the bits in a cpumask_t
    variable.  This removes a large amount of wasted cpu cycles.

  * Add performance variants of the cpumask operators:

    int cpus_weight_nr(mask)	     Same using nr_cpu_ids instead of NR_CPUS
    int first_cpu_nr(mask)	     Number lowest set bit, or nr_cpu_ids
    int next_cpu_nr(cpu, mask)	     Next cpu past 'cpu', or nr_cpu_ids
    for_each_cpu_mask_nr(cpu, mask)  for-loop cpu over mask using nr_cpu_ids

  * Modify following to use performance variants:

    #define num_online_cpus()	cpus_weight_nr(cpu_online_map)
    #define num_possible_cpus()	cpus_weight_nr(cpu_possible_map)
    #define num_present_cpus()	cpus_weight_nr(cpu_present_map)

    #define for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
    #define for_each_online_cpu(cpu)   for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
    #define for_each_present_cpu(cpu)  for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)

  * Comment added to include/linux/cpumask.h:

    Note: The alternate operations with the suffix "_nr" are used
	  to limit the range of the loop to nr_cpu_ids instead of
	  NR_CPUS when NR_CPUS > 64 for performance reasons.
	  If NR_CPUS is <= 64 then most assembler bitmask
	  operators execute faster with a constant range, so
	  the operator will continue to use NR_CPUS.

	  Another consideration is that nr_cpu_ids is initialized
	  to NR_CPUS and isn't lowered until the possible cpus are
	  discovered (including any disabled cpus).  So early uses
	  will span the entire range of NR_CPUS.

    (The net effect is that for systems with 64 or less CPU's there are no
     functional changes.)

For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.

82524746c2 rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h
Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.

This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
list.h without creating some circular dependencies.

For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
without including rcupdate.h.  It actually compiles because users of
rcu_dereference() are macros.  Others RCU functions could be used too but
aren't probably because of this.

Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
many changes/troubles.
