Oleg noticed that a perf-fd keeping a reference on the creating task
leads to a few funny side effects.
There's two different aspects to this:
- kernel based perf-events, these should not take out
a reference on the creating task and appear on the task's
event list since they're not bound to fds nor visible
to userspace.
- fork() and pthread_create(), these can lead to the creating
task dying (and thus the task's event-list becomming useless)
but keeping the list and ref alive until the event is closed.
Combined they lead to malfunction of the ptrace hw_tracepoints.
Cure this by not considering kernel based perf_events for the
owner-list and destroying the owner-list when the owner dies.

This patch expands functionality of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to set main
(static) kernel data area as NX.
The following steps are taken to achieve this:
1. Linker script is adjusted so .text always starts and ends on a page bound
2. Linker script is adjusted so .rodata always start and end on a page boundary
3. NX is set for all pages from _etext through _end in mark_rodata_ro.
4. free_init_pages() sets released memory NX in arch/x86/mm/init.c
5. bios rom is set to x when pcibios is used.
The results of patch application may be observed in the diff of kernel page
table dumps:

This patch fixes a bug in try_preserve_large_page() which may
result in improper large page preservation and improper
application of page attributes to the memory area outside of the
original change request.
More specifically, the problem manifests itself when set_memory_*()
is called for several pages at the beginning of the large page and
try_preserve_large_page() erroneously concludes that the change can
be applied to whole large page.
The fix consists of 3 parts:
1. Addition of "required" protection attributes in
static_protections(), so .data and .bss can be guaranteed to
stay "RW"
2. static_protections() is now called for every small
page within large page to determine compatibility of new
protection attributes (instead of just small pages within the
requested range).
3. Large page can be preserved only if attribute change is
large-page-aligned and covers whole large page.
-v1: Try_preserve_large_page() patch for Linux 2.6.34-rc2
-v2: Replaced pfn check with address check for kernel rw-data

This patch for SGI UV systems addresses a problem whereby
interrupt transactions being looped back from a local IOH,
through the hub to a local CPU can (erroneously) conflict with
IO port operations and other transactions.
To workaound this we set a high bit in the APIC IDs used for
interrupts. This bit appears to be ignored by the sockets, but
it avoids the conflict in the hub.

| x86: Spread tlb flush vector between nodes
It turns out when first socket is not online it could have cpus on
node1 tlb_offset set to bigger than NUM_INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTORS.
That could affect systems like 4 sockets, but socket 2 doesn't
have installed, sockets 3 will get too big tlb_offset.

As pointed out by Oliver Neukum:
xpad->irq_in is currently submitted before xpad->bulk_out is allocated.
That however is a race, because the callback for irq_in can call
xpad360w_process_packet(), which will in turn submit the bulk URB.
This patch moves initialization for xpad->bulk_out earlier, so we can
ensure xpad->bulk_out is initialized before submitting urb.

Now that we have a new nmi_watchdog that is more generic and
sits on top of the perf subsystem, we really do not need the old
nmi_watchdog any more.
In addition, the old nmi_watchdog doesn't really work if you are
using the default clocksource, hpet. The old nmi_watchdog code
relied on local apic interrupts to determine if the cpu is still
alive. With hpet as the clocksource, these interrupts don't
increment any more and the old nmi_watchdog triggers false
postives.
This piece removes the old nmi_watchdog code and stubs out any
variables and functions calls. The stubs are the same ones used
by the new nmi_watchdog code, so it should be well tested.

This patch adds initial support for Renesas SH-Mobile AG5.
At this point the AG5 CPU support is limited to the ARM
core, SCIF serial and a CMT timer together with L2 cache
and the GIC. The AG5EVM board also supports Ethernet.
Future patches will add support for GPIO, INTCS, CPGA
and platform data / driver updates for devices such as
IIC, LCDC, FSI, KEYSC, CEU and SDHI among others.
The code in entry-macro.S will be cleaned up when the
ARM IRQ demux code improvements have been merged.
Depends on the AG5EVM mach-type recently registered but
not yet present in arch/arm/tools/mach-types.
As the AG5EVM board comes with 512MiB memory it is
recommended to turn on HIGHMEM.

GCC's __builtin_prefetch() was introduced a long time ago, all
supported GCC versions have it. So this patch is to use it for
implementing the prefetch on SH2A and SH4.
The current prefetch implementation is almost equivalent with
__builtin_prefetch.
The third parameter in the __builtin_prefetch is the locality
that it's not supported on SH architectures. It has been set
to three and it should be verified if it's suitable for SH2A
as well. I didn't test on this architecture.
The builtin usage should be more efficient that an __asm__
because less barriers, and because the compiler doesn't see the
inst as a "black box" allowing better code generation.
This has been already done on other architectures (see the commit:
0453fb3c52).
Many thanks to Christian Bruel <christain.bruel@st.com> for his

a bo may be beaten to the reservation by a process with a lower sequence.
In that case the first process should give up trying to reserve and
return -EAGAIN. In order for that to happen, we must wake waiting processes
