sched: fix overload performance: buddy wakeups
Currently we schedule to the leftmost task in the runqueue. When the
runtimes are very short because of some server/client ping-pong,
especially in over-saturated workloads, this will cycle through all
tasks trashing the cache.
Reduce cache trashing by keeping dependent tasks together by running
newly woken tasks first. However, by not running the leftmost task first
we could starve tasks because the wakee can gain unlimited runtime.
Therefore we only run the wakee if its within a small
(wakeup_granularity) window of the leftmost task. This preserves
fairness, but does alternate server/client task groups.

sched: min_vruntime fix
Current min_vruntime tracking is incorrect and will cause serious
problems when we don't run the leftmost task for some reason.
min_vruntime does two things; 1) it's used to determine a forward
direction when the u64 vruntime wraps, 2) it's used to track the
leftmost vruntime to position newly enqueued tasks from.
The current logic advances min_vruntime whenever the current task's
vruntime advance. Because the current task may pass the leftmost task
still waiting we're failing the second goal. This causes new tasks to be
placed too far ahead and thus penalizes their runtime.
Fix this by making min_vruntime the min_vruntime of the waiting tasks by
tracking it in enqueue/dequeue, and compare against current's vruntime
to obtain the absolute minimum when placing new tasks.

Fix a hard to trigger crash seen in the -rt kernel that also affects
the vanilla scheduler.
There is a race condition between schedule() and some dequeue/enqueue
functions; rt_mutex_setprio(), __setscheduler() and sched_move_task().
When scheduling to idle, idle_balance() is called to pull tasks from
other busy processor. It might drop the rq lock. It means that those 3
functions encounter on_rq=0 and running=1. The current task should be
put when running.
The current process of CPU1(P1) is scheduling. Deactivated P1, and the
scheduler looks for another process on other CPU's runqueue because CPU1
will be idle. idle_balance(), load_balance_newidle() and
double_lock_balance() are called and double_lock_balance() could drop
the rq lock. On the other hand, CPU0 is trying to boost the priority of
P1. The result of boosting only P1's prio and sched_class are changed to
RT. The sched entities of P1 and P1's group are never put. It makes
cfs_rq invalid, because the cfs_rq has curr and no leaf, but
pick_next_task_fair() is called, then the kernel panics.

nfsd: fix oops on access from high-numbered ports
This bug was always here, but before my commit 6fa02839bf9412e18e77
("recheck for secure ports in fh_verify"), it could only be triggered by
failure of a kmalloc(). After that commit it could be triggered by a
client making a request from a non-reserved port for access to an export
marked "secure". (Exports are "secure" by default.)
The result is a struct svc_export with a reference count one too low,
resulting in likely oopses next time the export is accessed.
The reference counting here is not straightforward; a later patch will
clean up fh_verify().

firewire: fw-sbp2: set single-phase retry_limit
Per the SBP-2 specification, all SBP-2 target devices must have a BUSY_TIMEOUT
register. Per the 1394-1995 specification, the retry_limt portion of the
register should be set to 0x0 initially, and set on the target by a logged in
initiator (i.e., a Linux host w/firewire controller(s)).
Well, as it turns out, lots of devices these days have actually moved on to
starting to implement SBP-3 compliance, which says that retry_limit should
default to 0xf instead (yes, SBP-3 stomps directly on 1394-1995, oops).
Prior to this change, the firewire driver stack didn't touch retry_limit, and
any SBP-3 compliant device worked fine, while SBP-2 compliant ones were unable
to retransmit when the host returned an ack_busy_X, which resulted in stalled
out I/O, eventually causing the SCSI layer to give up and offline the device.
The simple fix is for us to set retry_limit to 0xf in the register for all
devices (which actually matches what the old ieee1394 stack did).
Prior to this change, a hard disk behind an SBP-2 Prolific PL-3507 bridge chip
would routinely encounter buffer I/O errors and wind up offlined by the SCSI
layer. With this change, I've encountered zero I/O failures moving tens of GB
of data around.

(reported by Mattias Nissler).
The side effect of the same bug was that while working with
multiple virtual AP interfaces a change for any of those
interfaces would disable beaconing untill an beacon update
was provided.
This is resolved by only updating the TSF_SYNC value during
config_intf(). In update_beacon() we disable beaconing
temporarily to prevent fake beacons to be transmitted.
Finally kick_tx_queue() will enable beaconing again.

rt2x00: Use skbdesc fields for descriptor initialization
In rt2x00lib_write_tx_desc() the skb->data and skb->len fields

rt2x00: Align RX descriptor to 4 bytes
Some architectures give problems when reading
RX frame descriptor words when the descriptor
is not aligned on a 4 byte boundrary.
Due to optimalizations for the ieee80211 payload
4 byte alignment, it is no longer guarenteed
that the descriptor is placed on the 4 byte
boundrary (In fact, for rt73usb it is absolutely
never aligned to 4 bytes, for rt2500usb it depends
on the length of the payload).
This will copy the descriptor to a 4 byte aligned
location before it is read for the first time.
This will also move the payload data alignment
in rt2x00usb (instead of inside the driver) where
it has always belonged.

PCI: fix issue with busses registering multiple times in sysfs
PCI busses can be registered multiple times, so we need to detect if we
have registered our bus structure in sysfs already. If so, don't do it
again.
Thanks to Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@gmx.de> for reporting
the problem, and to Linus for poking me to get me to believe that it was
a real problem.
The dst member nfheader_len is only used by IPv6. It's also currently
creating a rather ugly alignment hole in struct dst. Therefore this patch
moves it from there into struct rt6_info.
Above patch changes the cache line alignment, especially member
__refcnt. I did a testing by adding 2 unsigned long pading before
lastuse, so the 3 members, lastuse/__refcnt/__use, are moved to next
cache line. The performance is recovered.
I created a patch to rearrange the members in struct dst_entry.
With Eric and Valdis Kletnieks's suggestion, I made finer arrangement.
1) Move tclassid under ops in case CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y. So
sizeof(dst_entry)=200 no matter if CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y/n. I
tested many patches on my 16-core tigerton by moving tclassid to
different place. It looks like tclassid could also have impact on
performance. If moving tclassid before metrics, or just don't move
tclassid, the performance isn't good. So I move it behind metrics.
2) Add comments before __refcnt.
On 16-core tigerton:
If CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=y, the result with below patch is about 18%
better than the one without the patch;
If CONFIG_NET_CLS_ROUTE=n, the result with below patch is about 30%
better than the one without the patch.
With 32bit 2.6.25-rc1 on 8-core stoakley, the new patch doesn't
introduce regression.

[POWERPC] Fix large hash table allocation on Cell blades
My recent hack to allocate the hash table under 1GB on cell was poorly
tested, *cough*. It turns out on blades with large amounts of memory we
fail to allocate the hash table at all. This is because RTAS has been
instantiated just below 768MB, and 0-x MB are used by the kernel,
leaving no areas that are both large enough and also naturally-aligned.
For the cell IOMMU hack the page tables must be under 2GB, so use that
as the limit instead. This has been tested on real hardware and boots
happily.
