Currently __assign_irq_vector() goes through each cpu in the
specified mask until it finds a free vector in all the cpu's
that are part of the same interrupt domain. We visit all the
interrupt domain sibling cpus to reserve the free vector. So,
when we fail to find a free vector in an interrupt domain, it is
safe to continue our search with a cpu belonging to a new
interrupt domain. No need to go through each cpu, if the domain
containing that cpu is already visited.
Use the irq_cfg's old_domain to track the visited domains and
optimize the cpu traversal while finding a free vector in the
given cpumask.
NOTE: We can also optimize the search by using for_each_cpu() and
skip the current cpu, if it is not the first cpu in the mask
returned by the vector_allocation_domain(). But re-using the
cfg->old_domain to track the visited domains will be slightly
faster.

Move the ->irq_set_affinity() routines out of the #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
sections and use config_enabled(CONFIG_SMP) checks inside those
routines. Thus making those routines simple null stubs for
!CONFIG_SMP and retaining those routines with no additional
runtime overhead for CONFIG_SMP kernels.
Cleans up the ifdef CONFIG_SMP in and around routines related to
irq_set_affinity in io_apic and irq_remapping subsystems.

vSMP can route interrupts more optimally based on internal

Currently cpu_mask_to_apicid() should not get a offline CPU with
the cpumask. Otherwise some apic drivers might try to access
non-existent per-cpu variables (i.e. x2apic). In that regard
cpu_mask_to_apicid() and cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() operations are
inconsistent.
This fix makes the two operations do not rely on calling
functions and always return the apicid for only online CPUs. As
result, the meaning and implementations of cpu_mask_to_apicid()
and cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() operations become straight.

Current cpu_mask_to_apicid() and cpu_mask_to_apicid_and()
implementations have few shortcomings:
1. A value returned by cpu_mask_to_apicid() is written to
hardware registers unconditionally. Should BAD_APICID get ever
returned it will be written to a hardware too. But the value of
BAD_APICID is not universal across all hardware in all modes and
might cause unexpected results, i.e. interrupts might get routed
to CPUs that are not configured to receive it.
2. Because the value of BAD_APICID is not universal it is
counter- intuitive to return it for a hardware where it does not
make sense (i.e. x2apic).
3. cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() operation is thought as an
complement to cpu_mask_to_apicid() that only applies a AND mask
on top of a cpumask being passed. Yet, as consequence of 18374d8
commit the two operations are inconsistent in that of:
cpu_mask_to_apicid() should not get a offline CPU with the cpumask
cpu_mask_to_apicid_and() should not fail and return BAD_APICID
These limitations are impossible to realize just from looking at
the operations prototypes.
Most of these shortcomings are resolved by returning a error
code instead of BAD_APICID. As the result, faults are reported
back early rather than possibilities to cause a unexpected
behaviour exist (in case of [1]).
The only exception is setup_timer_IRQ0_pin() routine. Although
obviously controversial to this fix, its existing behaviour is
preserved to not break the fragile check_timer() and would
better addressed in a separate fix.

In case of static vector allocation domains (i.e. flat) if all
vector numbers are exhausted, an attempt to assign a new vector
will lead to useless scans through all CPUs in the cpumask, even
though it is known that each new pass would fail. Make this
corner case less painful by letting report whether the vector
allocation domain depends on passed arguments or not and stop
scanning early.
The same could have been achived by introducing a static flag to
the apic operations. But let's allow vector_allocation_domain()
have more intelligence here and decide dynamically, in case we
would need it in the future.

When assigning a new vector it is primarially done by adding 8
to the previously given out vector number. Hence, two
consequently allocated vector numbers would likely fall into the
same priority level. Try to spread vector numbers to different
priority levels better by changing the step from 8 to 16.

If the HW implements round-robin interrupt delivery, this
enables multiple cpu's (which are part of the user specified
interrupt smp_affinity mask and belong to the same x2apic
cluster) to service the interrupt.
Also if the platform supports Power Aware Interrupt Routing,
then this enables the interrupt to be routed to an idle cpu or a
busy cpu depending on the perf/power bias tunable.
We are now grouping all the cpu's in a cluster to one vector
domain. So that will limit the total number of interrupt sources
handled by Linux. Previously we support "cpu-count *
available-vectors-per-cpu" interrupt sources but this will now
reduce to "cpu-count/16 * available-vectors-per-cpu".

Until now, irq_cfg domain is mostly static. Either all CPU's
(used by flat mode) or one CPU (first CPU in the irq afffinity
mask) to which irq is being migrated (this is used by the rest
of apic modes).
Upcoming x2apic cluster mode optimization patch allows the irq
to be sent to any CPU in the x2apic cluster (if supported by the
HW). So irq_cfg domain changes on the fly (depending on which
CPU in the x2apic cluster is online).
Instead of checking for any intersection between the new irq
affinity mask and the current irq_cfg domain, check if the new
irq affinity mask is a subset of the current irq_cfg domain.
Otherwise proceed with updating the irq_cfg domain aswell as
assigning vector's on all the CPUs specified in the new mask.
This also cleans up a workaround in updating irq_cfg domain for
legacy irq's that are handled by the IO-APIC.

When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
support for x32 GDB For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64. But
at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32. So I have to add
x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and
copy it back to GDB as int32. Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of
user_regs_struct instead.
Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to
avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to
kernel.

Pull vfs changes from Al Viro.
"A lot of misc stuff. The obvious groups:
* Miklos' atomic_open series; kills the damn abuse of
->d_revalidate() by NFS, which was the major stumbling block for
all work in that area.
* ripping security_file_mmap() and dealing with deadlocks in the
area; sanitizing the neighborhood of vm_mmap()/vm_munmap() in
general.
* ->encode_fh() switched to saner API; insane fake dentry in
mm/cleancache.c gone.
* assorted annotations in fs (endianness, __user)
* parts of Artem's ->s_dirty work (jff2 and reiserfs parts)
* ->update_time() work from Josef.
* other bits and pieces all over the place.
Normally it would've been in two or three pull requests, but
signal.git stuff had eaten a lot of time during this cycle ;-/"
Fix up trivial conflicts in Documentation/filesystems/vfs.txt (the
'truncate_range' inode method was removed by the VM changes, the VFS
update adds an 'update_time()' method), and in fs/btrfs/ulist.[ch] (due
to sparse fix added twice, with other changes nearby).

If we end up calling do_notify_resume() with !user_mode(refs), it
does nothing (do_signal() explicitly bails out and we can't get there
with TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME in such situations). Then we jump to
resume_userspace_sig, which rechecks the same thing and bails out
to resume_kernel, thus breaking the loop.
It's easier and cheaper to check *before* calling do_notify_resume()
and bail out to resume_kernel immediately. And kill the check in
do_signal()...
Note that on amd64 we can't get there with !user_mode() at all - asm
glue takes care of that.

Shrink TIF_WORK_MASK so that it will fit in the 12-bit signed immediate
operand field of an ANDI instruction.

Move the test for kernel mode processing from do_signal() into entry.S to also
prevent system call exit tracing and userspace resumption notification handling
happening when returning from kernel exceptions.

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when
sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).
I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

Only 3 out of 63 do not. Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(),
added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched
open-coded instances to it.
