This patch implements VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING for ia64,
which enable us to use more accurate cpu time accounting.
The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is an item of kernel config, which s390
and powerpc arch have. By turning this config on, these archs
change the mechanism of cpu time accounting from tick-sampling
based one to state-transition based one.
The state-transition based accounting is done by checking time
(cycle counter in processor) at every state-transition point,
such as entrance/exit of kernel, interrupt, softirq etc.
The difference between point to point is the actual time consumed
during in the state. There is no doubt about that this value is
more accurate than that of tick-sampling based accounting.

Commit bdc807871d broke the build
for this config because the sim_defconfig selects CONFIG_HZ=250
but include/asm-ia64/param.h has an ifdef for the simulator to
force HZ to 32. So we ended up with a kernel/timeconst.h set
for HZ=250 ... which then failed the check for the right HZ
value and died with:
Drop the #ifdef magic from param.h and make force CONFIG_HZ=32
directly for the simulator.

We want to allow different implementations of pci_raw_ops for standard
and extended config space on x86. Rather than clutter generic code with
knowledge of this, we make pci_raw_ops private to x86 and use it to
implement the new raw interface -- raw_pci_read() and raw_pci_write().

* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/aegl/linux-2.6:
[IA64] Fix large MCA bootmem allocation
[IA64] Simplify cpu_idle_wait
[IA64] Synchronize RBS on PTRACE_ATTACH
[IA64] Synchronize kernel RSE to user-space and back
[IA64] Rename TIF_PERFMON_WORK back to TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME
[IA64] Wire up timerfd_{create,settime,gettime} syscalls
The MCA code allocates bootmem memory for NR_CPUS, regardless
of how many cpus the system actually has. This change allocates
memory only for cpus that actually exist.
On my test system with NR_CPUS = 1024, reserved memory was reduced by 130944k.
Before: Memory: 27886976k/28111168k available (8282k code, 242304k reserved, 5928k data, 1792k init)
After: Memory: 28017920k/28111168k available (8282k code, 111360k reserved, 5928k data, 1792k init)

This is base kernel patch for ptrace RSE bug. It's basically a backport
from the utrace RSE patch I sent out several weeks ago. please review.
when a thread is stopped (ptraced), debugger might change thread's user
stack (change memory directly), and we must avoid the RSE stored in
kernel to override user stack (user space's RSE is newer than kernel's
in the case). To workaround the issue, we copy kernel RSE to user RSE
before the task is stopped, so user RSE has updated data. we then copy
user RSE to kernel after the task is resummed from traced stop and
kernel will use the newer RSE to return to user.

This patchset is for the vmcoreinfo data.
The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump
filtering. makedumpfile (dump filtering command) gets it to distinguish
unnecessary pages, and makedumpfile creates a small dumpfile.
This patch:
VMCOREINFO_SIZE() should be renamed VMCOREINFO_STRUCT_SIZE() since it's always
returning the size of the struct with a given name. This change would allow
VMCOREINFO_TYPEDEF_SIZE() to simply become VMCOREINFO_SIZE() since it need not
be used exclusively for typedefs.

This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.
This patch:
Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.
Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

- ensure all users #include <linux/delay.h>

This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:
int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
const struct itimerspec *utmr,
struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);
The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.
The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).
The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time.
The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.
Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:
