b18ae08dea powerpc/cell: Use system_wq in cpufreq_spudemand
With cmwq, there's no reason to use a separate workqueue in
cpufreq_spudemand.  Use system_wq instead.  The work items are already
sync canceled on stop, so it's already guaranteed that no work is
running when spu_gov_exit() is entered.

c0337288ab powerpc: Ensure the else case of feature sections will fit
When we create an alternative feature section, the else case must be the
same size or smaller than the body. This is because when we patch the
else case in we just overwrite the body, so there must be room.

Up to now we just did this by inspection, but it's quite easy to enforce
it in the assembler, so we should.

The only change is to add the ifgt block, but that effects the alignment
of the tabs and so the whole macro is modified.

Also add a test, but #if 0 it because we don't want to break the build.
Anyone who's modifying the feature macros should enable the test.

4bca770ede powerpc: perf: Fix frequency calculation for overflowing counters
When profiling a benchmark that is almost 100% userspace, I noticed some wildly
inaccurate profiles that showed almost all time spent in the kernel.

Closer examination shows we were programming a tiny number of cycles into the
PMU after each overflow (about ~200 away from the next overflow). This gets us
stuck in a loop which we eventually break out of by throttling the PMU (there
are regular throttle/unthrottle events in the log).

It looks like we aren't setting event->hw.last_period to something same and the
frequency to period calculations in perf are going haywire.

With the following patch we find the correct period after a few interrupts and
stay there. I also see no more throttle events.

12a4dc4391 rapidio: fix hang on RapidIO doorbell queue full condition
In fsl_rio_dbell_handler() the code currently simply acknowledges the QFI
queue full interrupt, but does nothing to resolve the queue full
condition.  Instead, it jumps to the end of the isr.  When a queue full
condition occurs, the isr is then re-entered immediately and continually,
forever.

The fix is to just fall through and read out current doorbell entries.

39bf990ead powerpc/pseries: Fix VPHN build errors on non-SMP systems
The header asm/hvcall.h was previously included indirectly via
smp.h. On non-SMP systems, however, these declarations are excluded
and the build breaks. This is easily fixed by including asm/hvcall.h
directly.

The VPHN feature is only meaningful on NUMA systems that implement
the SPLPAR option, so exclude the VPHN code on systems without
SPLPAR enabled.

Also, expose unmap_cpu_from_node() on systems with SPLPAR enabled,
even if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabled.

Lastly, map_cpu_to_node() is now needed by VPHN to manipulate the
node masks after boot time, so remove the __cpuinit annotation to
fix a section mismatch.

fa0d7e3de6 fs: icache RCU free inodes
RCU free the struct inode. This will allow:

- Subsequent store-free path walking patch. The inode must be consulted for
  permissions when walking, so an RCU inode reference is a must.
- sb_inode_list_lock to be moved inside i_lock because sb list walkers who want
  to take i_lock no longer need to take sb_inode_list_lock to walk the list in
  the first place. This will simplify and optimize locking.
- Could remove some nested trylock loops in dcache code
- Could potentially simplify things a bit in VM land. Do not need to take the
  page lock to follow page->mapping.

The downsides of this is the performance cost of using RCU. In a simple
creat/unlink microbenchmark, performance drops by about 10% due to inability to
reuse cache-hot slab objects. As iterations increase and RCU freeing starts
kicking over, this increases to about 20%.

In cases where inode lifetimes are longer (ie. many inodes may be allocated
during the average life span of a single inode), a lot of this cache reuse is
not applicable, so the regression caused by this patch is smaller.

The cache-hot regression could largely be avoided by using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU,
however this adds some complexity to list walking and store-free path walking,
so I prefer to implement this at a later date, if it is shown to be a win in
real situations. I haven't found a regression in any non-micro benchmark so I
doubt it will be a problem.

dc0474be3e fs: dcache rationalise dget variants
dget_locked was a shortcut to avoid the lazy lru manipulation when we already
held dcache_lock (lru manipulation was relatively cheap at that point).
However, how that the lru lock is an innermost one, we never hold it at any
caller, so the lock cost can now be avoided. We already have well working lazy
dcache LRU, so it should be fine to defer LRU manipulations to scan time.

b7ab39f631 fs: dcache scale dentry refcount
Make d_count non-atomic and protect it with d_lock. This allows us to ensure a
0 refcount dentry remains 0 without dcache_lock. It is also fairly natural when
we start protecting many other dentry members with d_lock.
