On larger systems, because of the numerous ACPI, Bootmem and EFI messages,
the static log buffer overflows before the larger one specified by the
log_buf_len param is allocated. Minimize the overflow by allocating the
new log buffer as soon as possible.
On kernels without memblock, a later call to setup_log_buf from
kernel/init.c is the fallback.

cpumask_t is very big struct and cpu_vm_mask is placed wrong position.
It might lead to reduce cache hit ratio.
This patch has two change.
1) Move the place of cpumask into last of mm_struct. Because usually cpumask
is accessed only front bits when the system has cpu-hotplug capability
2) Convert cpu_vm_mask into cpumask_var_t. It may help to reduce memory
footprint if cpumask_size() will use nr_cpumask_bits properly in future.
In addition, this patch change the name of cpu_vm_mask with cpu_vm_mask_var.
It may help to detect out of tree cpu_vm_mask users.
This patch has no functional change.

In mask/restore_ioapic_entries() we should be restoring ioapic
entries when ioapics[apic].saved_registers is not NULL.
Fix the typo and address the resume hang regression reported by
Linus.
This was not found sooner because the systems where these
changes were tested on kept the IO-APIC entries intact over
resume.

on watchdog_thresh
Before the conversion of the NMI watchdog to perf event, the
watchdog timeout was 5 seconds. Now it is 60 seconds. For my
particular application, netbooks, 5 seconds was a better
timeout. With a short timeout, we catch faults earlier and are
able to send back a panic. With a 60 second timeout, the user is
unlikely to wait and will instead hit the power button, causing
us to lose the panic info.
This change configures the NMI period to watchdog_thresh and
sets the softlockup_thresh to watchdog_thresh * 2. In addition,
watchdog_thresh was reduced to 10 seconds as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.

The setup_smep function gets calle at resume time too, and is thus not a
pure __init function. When marked as __init, it gets thrown out after
the kernel has initialized, and when the kernel is suspended and
resumed, the code will no longer be around, and we'll get a nice "kernel
tried to execute NX-protected page" oops because the page is no longer
marked executable.

This will pave the way for each apic driver to be self-contained
and eliminate the need for apic_probe[].
Order in which apic drivers are listed in the .apicdrivers
section is important, as this determines the apic probe order.
And this is enforced by the ordering of apic driver files in the
Makefile and the macros apic_driver()/apic_drivers().

In the case of x2apic cluster mode we can group IPI register
writes based on the cluster group instead of individual per-cpu
destination messages.
This reduces the apic register writes and reduces the amount of
IPI messages (in the best case we can reduce it by a factor of
16).
With this change, the cost of flush_tlb_others(), with the flush
tlb IPI being sent from a cpu in the socket-1 to all the logical
cpus in socket-2 (on a Westmere-EX system that has 20 logical
cpus in a socket) is 3x times better now (compared to the former
'send one-by-one' algorithm).

ioapic suspend/resume code uses boot time allocated

The workaround for Bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33012
introduced a read and a write to the MC4 mask msr.
Unfortunatly this MSR is not emulated by the KVM hypervisor
so that the kernel will get a #GP and crashes when applying
this workaround when running inside KVM.
This issue was reported as:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35132
and is fixed with this patch. The change just let the kernel
ignore any #GP it gets while accessing this MSR by using the
_safe msr access methods.
