This was marked as obsolete for quite a while now.. Now it is time to
remove it altogether. And while doing this, get rid of first_cpu() as
well. Also, remove the redundant setting of cpu_online_mask in
smp_prepare_cpus() because the generic code would have already set cpu 0
in cpu_online_mask.

A race condition exists within smp_call_function_many() when called from
smp_flush_tlb_mm(). On rare occasions the cpu_vm_mask can be cleared
while smp_call_function_many is executing, occasionally resulting in a
hung process.
Make a copy of the mask prior to calling smp_call_function_many().

There are a few places where ___cacheline_aligned* is used with
DEFINE_PER_CPU(). Use DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() instead.
DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() applies alignment only on SMPs. While
all other converted places used _in_smp variant or only get compiled
for SMP, net/rds used unconditional ____cacheline_aligned. I don't
see any reason these data structures should be aligned on UP and thus
converted together.

Currently, the following three different ways to define percpu arrays
are in use.
1. DEFINE_PER_CPU(elem_type[array_len], array_name);
2. DEFINE_PER_CPU(elem_type, array_name[array_len]);
3. DEFINE_PER_CPU(elem_type, array_name)[array_len];
Unify to #1 which correctly separates the roles of the two parameters
and thus allows more flexibility in the way percpu variables are
defined.

It is generally agreed that it would be beneficial for u64 to be an
unsigned long long on all architectures. ia64 (in common with several
other 64-bit architectures) currently uses unsigned long. Migrating
piecemeal is too painful; this giant patch fixes all compilation warnings
and errors that come as a result of switching to use int-ll64.h.
Note that userspace will still see __u64 defined as unsigned long. This
is important as it affects C++ name mangling.
[Updated by Tony Luck to change efi.h:efi_freemem_callback_t to use
u64 for start/end rather than unsigned long]

Having flush_tlb_mm->smp_flush_tlb_mm() send an IPI to every cpu
on the system is occasionally triggering spin_lock contention in
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt().
Follow x86 arch's lead and only sends IPIs to the cpus in mm->cpu_vm_mask.
Experiments with this change have shown significant improvement in this
contention issue.

We're weaning the core code off handing cpumask's around on-stack.
This introduces arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask().
We also take the chance to wean send_IPI_mask off the obsolescent
for_each_cpu_mask(): making it take the pointer seemed the most
natural way.

Making allmodconfig will break the current build. This patch shrinks
the per_cpu__shadow_flush_counts from 16k to 8k which frees enough space
to allow allmodconfig to successfully complete.

Currently most of the per cpu data, which is accessed by different cpus,
has a ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp attribute. Move all this data to the
new per cpu shared data section: .data.percpu.shared_aligned.
This will seperate the percpu data which is referenced frequently by other
cpus from the local only percpu data.

Actually, on reflection I think that there is a good case for
keeping the options separate. I am thinking particularly of people
who want a very small crashdump kernel and thus don't want to compile
in kexec.
The patch below should fix things up so that all valid combinations of
KEXEC, CRASH_DUMP and VMCORE compile cleanly - VMCORE depends on
CRASH_DUMP which is why I said valid combinations. In a nutshell
it just untangles unrelated code and switches around a few defines.
Please note that it creats a new file, arch/ia64/kernel/crash_dump.c
This is in keeping with the i386 implementation.

In arch/ia64 change the explicit use of for-loops and NR_CPUS into the
general for_each_cpu() or for_each_online_cpu() constructs, as
appropriate. This widens the scope of potential future optimizations
of the general constructs, as well as takes advantage of the existing
optimizations of first_cpu() and next_cpu().

There's another problem shown up by Ingo's recent patch to make
smp_processor_id() complain if it's called with preemption enabled.
local_finish_flush_tlb_mm() calls activate_context() in a situation
where it could be rescheduled to another processor. This patch
disables preemption around the call.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
