Patch from Nicolas Pitre
This patch gets rid of the last C implementations of needed libgcc
functions for the kernel, replacing them with optimized assembly
versions.
Those functions are:
__ashldi3
__ashrdi3
__lshrdi3
__muldi3
__ucmpdi2
The first 3 were lifted from gcc, the other two were written from scratch.

This fixes a bug where settimeofday would set the wrong parameters
in do_gtod, resulting in gettimeofday returning a value about 4
hours after the correct time. The bug was that we divided a
negative 64-bit value with do_div, which treated it as unsigned
and gave us a result that was approximately 1.8e10 too large
(since the divisor was 1e9).

ata_pci_init_one() receives an array of struct ata_port_info. Recent
updates to the code had always obtained port information from
array element 0, rather than array element N.
Change to avoid hardcoding port_info[0], thereby restoring proper
hardware information to secondary legacy ports.

The second argument to ata_qc_complete() was being used for two
purposes: communicate the ATA Status register to the completion
function, and indicate an error. On legacy PCI IDE hardware, the latter
is often implicit in the former. On more modern hardware, the driver
often completely emulated a Status register value, passing ATA_ERR as an
indication that something went wrong.
Now that previous code changes have eliminated the need to use drv_stat
arg to communicate the ATA Status register value, we can convert it to a
mask of possible error classes.
This will lead to more flexible error handling in the future.
move EXPORT_SYMBOL(filemap_populate) to the proper place: just after
function itself: it's easy to miss that function is exported otherwise.

Policy contextualization is only useful for task based policies and not for
vma based policies. It may be useful to define allowed nodes that are not
accessible from this thread because other threads may have access to these
nodes. Without this patch strange memory policy situations may cause an
application to fail with out of memory.
Example:
Let's say we have two threads A and B that share the same address space and
a huge array computational array X.
Thread A is restricted by its cpuset to nodes 0 and 1 and thread B is
restricted by its cpuset to nodes 2 and 3.
Thread A now wants to restrict allocations to the first node and thus
applies a BIND policy on X to node 0 and 2. The cpuset limits this to node
0. Thus pages for X must be allocated on node 0 now.
Thread B now touches a page that has never been used in X and faults in a
page. According to the BIND policy of the vma for X the page must be
allocated on page 0. However, the cpuset of B does not allow allocation on
0 and 1. Now the application fails in alloc_pages with out of memory.

- Do a separation between do_xxx and sys_xxx functions. sys_xxx functions
take variable sized bitmaps from user space as arguments. do_xxx functions
take fixed sized nodemask_t as arguments and may be used from inside the
kernel. Doing so simplifies the initialization code. There is no
fs = kernel_ds assumption anymore.
- Split up get_nodes into get_nodes (which gets the node list) and
contextualize_policy which restricts the nodes to those accessible
to the task and updates cpusets.
- Add comments explaining limitations of bind policy

pgdat->node_size_lock is basically only neeeded in one place in the normal
code: show_mem(), which is the arch-specific sysrq-m printing function.
Strictly speaking, the architectures not doing memory hotplug do no need this
locking in show_mem(). However, they are all included for completeness. This
should also make any future consolidation of all of the implementations a
little more straightforward.
This lock is also held in the sparsemem code during a memory removal, as
sections are invalidated. This is the place there pfn_valid() is made false
for a memory area that's being removed. The lock is only required when doing
pfn_valid() operations on memory which the user does not already have a
reference on the page, such as in show_mem().

When doing memory hotplug operations, the size of existing zones can obviously
change. This means that zone->zone_{start_pfn,spanned_pages} can change.
There are currently no locks that protect these structure members. However,
they are rarely accessed at runtime. Outside of swsusp, the only place that I
can find is bad_range().
So, split bad_range() up into two pieces: one that needs to be locked and
anther that doesn't.

We had a problem on ppc64 where with more than 4 threads a large system
wouldn't scale well while faulting in the .text (most of the time was spent
in the kernel despite it was an userland compute intensive app). The
reason is the useless overwrite of the same pte from all cpu.
I fixed it this way (verified on an older kernel but the forward port is
almost identical). This will benefit all archs not just ppc64.

Basic overcommit checking for hugetlb_file_map() based on an implementation
used with demand faulting in SLES9.
Since demand faulting can't guarantee the availability of pages at mmap
time, this patch implements a basic sanity check to ensure that the number
of huge pages required to satisfy the mmap are currently available.
Despite the obvious race, I think it is a good start on doing proper
accounting. I'd like to work towards an accounting system that mimics the
semantics of normal pages (especially for the MAP_PRIVATE/COW case). That
work is underway and builds on what this patch starts.
Huge page shared memory segments are simpler and still maintain their
commit on shmget semantics.

Below is a patch to implement demand faulting for huge pages. The main
motivation for changing from prefaulting to demand faulting is so that huge
page memory areas can be allocated according to NUMA policy.
Thanks to consolidated hugetlb code, switching the behavior requires changing
only one fault handler. The bulk of the patch just moves the logic from
hugelb_prefault() to hugetlb_pte_fault() and find_get_huge_page().

A couple of oddities were guarded by page_table_lock, no longer properly
guarded when that is split.
The mm_counters of file_rss and anon_rss: make those an atomic_t, or an
atomic64_t if the architecture supports it, in such a case. Definitions by
courtesy of Christoph Lameter: who spent considerable effort on more scalable
ways of counting, but found insufficient benefit in practice.
And adding an mm with swap to the mmlist for swapoff: the list is well-
guarded by its own lock, but the list_empty check now has to be repeated
inside it.

Christoph Lameter demonstrated very poor scalability on the SGI 512-way, with
a many-threaded application which concurrently initializes different parts of
a large anonymous area.
This patch corrects that, by using a separate spinlock per page table page, to
guard the page table entries in that page, instead of using the mm's single
page_table_lock. (But even then, page_table_lock is still used to guard page
table allocation, and anon_vma allocation.)
In this implementation, the spinlock is tucked inside the struct page of the
page table page: with a BUILD_BUG_ON in case it overflows - which it would in
the case of 32-bit PA-RISC with spinlock debugging enabled.
Splitting the lock is not quite for free: another cacheline access. Ideally,
I suppose we would use split ptlock only for multi-threaded processes on
multi-cpu machines; but deciding that dynamically would have its own costs.
So for now enable it by config, at some number of cpus - since the Kconfig
language doesn't support inequalities, let preprocessor compare that with
NR_CPUS. But I don't think it's worth being user-configurable: for good
testing of both split and unsplit configs, split now at 4 cpus, and perhaps
change that to 8 later.
There is a benefit even for singly threaded processes: kswapd can be attacking
one part of the mm while another part is busy faulting.
