Pull pipe rework from David Howells:
 "This is my set of preparatory patches for building a general
  notification queue on top of pipes. It makes a number of significant
  changes:

   - It removes the nr_exclusive argument from __wake_up_sync_key() as
     this is always 1. This prepares for the next step:

   - Adds wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() so that poll can be
     woken up from a function that's holding the poll waitqueue
     spinlock.

   - Change the pipe buffer ring to be managed in terms of unbounded
     head and tail indices rather than bounded index and length. This
     means that reading the pipe only needs to modify one index, not
     two.

   - A selection of helper functions are provided to query the state of
     the pipe buffer, plus a couple to apply updates to the pipe
     indices.

   - The pipe ring is allowed to have kernel-reserved slots. This allows
     many notification messages to be spliced in by the kernel without
     allowing userspace to pin too many pages if it writes to the same
     pipe.

   - Advance the head and tail indices inside the pipe waitqueue lock
     and use wake_up_interruptible_sync_poll_locked() to poke poll
     without having to take the lock twice.

   - Rearrange pipe_write() to preallocate the buffer it is going to
     write into and then drop the spinlock. This allows kernel
     notifications to then be added the ring whilst it is filling the
     buffer it allocated. The read side is stalled because the pipe
     mutex is still held.

   - Don't wake up readers on a pipe if there was already data in it
     when we added more.

   - Don't wake up writers on a pipe if the ring wasn't full before we
     removed a buffer"
