commit 2ae76693b8bcabf370b981cd00c36cd41d33fabc
vhost: replace rcu with mutex
replaced rcu sync for memory accesses with VQ mutex locl/unlock.
This is correct since all accesses are under VQ mutex, but incomplete:
we still do useless rcu lock/unlock operations, someone might copy this
code into some other context where this won't be right.
This use of RCU is also non standard and hard to understand.
Let's copy the pointer to each VQ structure, this way
the access rules become straight-forward, and there's
no need for RCU anymore.

All memory accesses are done under some VQ mutex.
So lock/unlock all VQs is a faster equivalent of synchronize_rcu()
for memory access changes.
Some guests cause a lot of these changes, so it's helpful
to make them faster.

Michael Mueller provided a patch to reduce the size of
vhost-net structure as some allocations could fail under
memory pressure/fragmentation. We are still left with
high order allocations though.
This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing
vhost structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed.
As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT
to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.
People are still looking at cleaner ways to handle the problem
at the API level, probably passing in multiple iovecs.
This hack seems consistent with approaches
taken since then by drivers/vhost/scsi.c and net/core/dev.c

In perf's 'mem-mode', one can get access to a whole bunch of details specific to a
particular sample instruction. A bunch of those details relate to the data
address.
One interesting thing you can do with data addresses is to convert them into a unique
cacheline they belong too. Organizing these data cachelines into similar groups and sorting
them can reveal cache contention.
This patch creates an alogorithm based on various sample details that can help group
entries together into data cachelines and allows 'perf report' to sort on it.
The algorithm relies on having proper mmap2 support in the kernel to help determine
if the memory map the data address belongs to is private to a pid or globally shared.
The alogortithm is as follows:
o group cpumodes together
o group entries with discovered maps together
o sort on major, minor, inode and inode generation numbers
o if userspace anon, then sort on pid
o sort on cachelines based on data addresses
The 'dcacheline' sort option in 'perf report' only works in 'mem-mode'.
Sample output:
#
# Samples: 206 of event 'cpu/mem-loads/pp'
# Total weight : 2534
# Sort order : dcacheline,pid
#
# Overhead Samples Data Cacheline Command: Pid

'copy_prev_load' was recently added by commit: 18b46ab (cpufreq: governor: Be
friendly towards latency-sensitive bursty workloads).
It actually is a bit redundant as we also have 'prev_load' which can store any
integer value and can be used instead of 'copy_prev_load' by setting it zero.
True load can also turn out to be zero during long idle intervals (and hence the
actual value of 'prev_load' and the overloaded value can clash). However this is
not a problem because, if the true load was really zero in the previous
interval, it makes sense to evaluate the load afresh for the current interval
rather than copying the previous load.
So, drop 'copy_prev_load' and use 'prev_load' instead.
Update comments as well to make it more clear.
There is another change here which was probably missed by Srivatsa during the
last version of updates he made. The unlikely in the 'if' statement was covering
only half of the condition and the whole line should actually come under it.
Also checkpatch is made more silent as it was reporting this (--strict option):

This is because the generated script tries to print the array arg as

The number of VSIs that the firmware reports to us is a guaranteed
minimum, not an absolute maximum. The hardware actually supports far
more than the reported value, which we often need.
To allow for this, we allocate space for a larger number of VSIs than is
guaranteed by the firmware, with the knowledge that we may fail to get
them all in the future.
Note that we are just allocating pointers here, the actual (much larger)
VSI structures are allocated on demand.

shrink_inactive_list() used to wait 0.1s to avoid congestion when all
the pages that were isolated from the inactive list were dirty but not
under active writeback. That makes no real sense, and apparently causes
major interactivity issues under some loads since 3.11.
The ostensible reason for it was to wait for kswapd to start writing
pages, but that seems questionable as well, since the congestion wait
code seems to trigger for kswapd itself as well. Also, the logic behind
delaying anything when we haven't actually started writeback is not
clear - it only delays actually starting that writeback.
We'll still trigger the congestion waiting if
(a) the process is kswapd, and we hit pages flagged for immediate
reclaim
(b) the process is not kswapd, and the zone backing dev writeback is
actually congested.
This probably needs to be revisited, but as it is this fixes a reported
regression.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-06-08
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Jesse fixes an issue reported by Eric Dumazet where the driver was not
masking the right bits in the receive descriptor before checking them.
Also fixes TSO accounting since the kernel now can send as much as 32kB
in a single skb->frag[.] entry, even on a system with 4kB pages.
Anjali cleans up registers which are no longer supported.
Akeem cleans up code comments and removes num_msix_entries from the
interrupt setup routine since it was not being used. Fixes an issue where
FD SB/ATR and NTUPLE configuration status were reported erroneously, so
now the driver reports FDir without further information. Fixes a coding
error where during the registration for NAPI, the driver was requesting
256 budget. The max recommended value for this NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT or 64.
Lastly, removed deprecated device IDs because they will not be shipped.
Mitch removes log messages which were redundant so therefore unnecessary.
Also removes a bogus code comment since VF drivers require MSI-X or they
won't get interrupts at all and cleans up the formatting of several log
messages. Mitch also fixes the possibility of null pointers in VSI, since
not all VSIs have transmit rings.
Shannon ensures to clear the PXE mode bit on each reset after the AdminQ
