0c33cacd86 kmemcheck: remove multiple ifdef'd definitions of the same global variable
Multiple ifdef'd definitions of the same global variable is ugly and
error-prone. Fix that up.

5b53b76a61 kmemcheck: make initialization message less confusing
The "Bugs, beware!" printout during is cute but confuses users that something
bad happened so change the text to the more boring "Initialized" message.

dfec072ecd kmemcheck: add the kmemcheck core
General description: kmemcheck is a patch to the linux kernel that
detects use of uninitialized memory. It does this by trapping every
read and write to memory that was allocated dynamically (e.g. using
kmalloc()). If a memory address is read that has not previously been
written to, a message is printed to the kernel log.

Thanks to Andi Kleen for the set_memory_4k() solution.

Andrew Morton suggested documenting the shadow member of struct page.

acc6be5405 x86: add save_stack_trace_bp() for tracing from a specific stack frame
This will help kmemcheck (and possibly other debugging tools) since we
can now simply pass regs->bp to the stack tracer instead of specifying
the number of stack frames to skip, which is unreliable if gcc decides
to inline functions, etc.

Note that this makes the API incomplete for other architectures, but I
expect that those can be updated lazily, e.g. when they need it.

9e350de37a perf_counter: Accurate period data
We currently log hw.sample_period for PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD, however this is
incorrect. When we adjust the period, it will only take effect the next
cycle but report it for the current cycle. So when we adjust the period
for every cycle, we're always wrong.

Solve this by keeping track of the last_period.

511b01bdf6 Revert "x86, bts: reenable ptrace branch trace support"
This reverts commit 7e0bfad24d.

A late objection to the ABI has arrived:

   http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/10/253

Keep the ABI disabled out of caution, to not create premature
user-space expectations.

While the hw-branch-tracing variant uses and tests the BTS code.

0fea615e52 CPUFREQ: Mark e_powersaver driver as EXPERIMENTAL and DANGEROUS
The e_powersaver driver for VIA's C7 CPU's needs to be marked as
DANGEROUS as it configures the CPU to power states that are out
of specification.

According to Centaur, all systems with C7 and Nano CPU's support
the ACPI p-state method.  Thus, the acpi-cpufreq driver should
be used instead.

The VIA/Centaur C7, C7-M and Nano CPU's all support ACPI based cpu p-states
using a MSR interface.  The Linux driver just never made use of it, since in
addition to the check for the EST flag it also checked if the vendor is Intel.

bd2b5b1284 perf_counter: More aggressive frequency adjustment
Also employ the overflow handler to adjust the frequency, this results
in a stable frequency in about 40~50 samples, instead of that many ticks.

This also means we can start sampling at a sample period of 1 without
running head-first into the throttle.

It relies on sched_clock() to accurately measure the time difference
between the overflow NMIs.

a0861c02a9 KVM: Add VT-x machine check support
VT-x needs an explicit MC vector intercept to handle machine checks in the
hyper visor.

It also has a special option to catch machine checks that happen
during VT entry.

Do these interceptions and forward them to the Linux machine check
handler. Make it always look like user space is interrupted because
the machine check handler treats kernel/user space differently.

Thanks to Jiang Yunhong for help and testing.
