Applying RCU to the task structure broke oprofile, because
free_task_notify() can now be called from softirq. This means that the
task_mortuary lock must be acquired with irq disabled in order to avoid
intermittent self-deadlock. Since irq is now disabled, the critical
section within process_task_mortuary() has been restructured to be O(1) in
order to maximize scalability and minimize realtime latency degradation.
Kudos to Wu Fengguang for finding this problem!

____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp is currently used to align critical structures
and avoid false sharing. It uses per-arch L1_CACHE_SHIFT_MAX and people find
L1_CACHE_SHIFT_MAX useless.
However, we have been using ____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp to align
structures on the internode cacheline size. As per Andi's suggestion,
following patch kills ____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp and introduces
INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT, which defaults to L1_CACHE_SHIFT for all arches.
Arches needing L3/Internode cacheline alignment can define
INTERNODE_CACHE_SHIFT in the arch asm/cache.h. Patch replaces
____cacheline_maxaligned_in_smp with ____cacheline_internodealigned_in_smp

containing "0" or "1" in each directory below /dev/cpuset.
It defaults to false (file contains "0"). It can be set true by writing
"1" to the file.
If true, then anytime that a task is attached to the cpuset so marked, the
pages of that task will be moved to that cpuset, preserving, to the extent
practical, the cpuset-relative placement of the pages.
Also anytime that a cpuset so marked has its memory placement changed (by

sys_migrate_pages implementation using swap based page migration
This is the original API proposed by Ray Bryant in his posts during the first
half of 2005 on linux-mm@kvack.org and linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org.
The intent of sys_migrate is to migrate memory of a process. A process may
have migrated to another node. Memory was allocated optimally for the prior
context. sys_migrate_pages allows to shift the memory to the new node.
sys_migrate_pages is also useful if the processes available memory nodes have
changed through cpuset operations to manually move the processes memory. Paul
Jackson is working on an automated mechanism that will allow an automatic
migration if the cpuset of a process is changed. However, a user may decide
to manually control the migration.
This implementation is put into the policy layer since it uses concepts and
functions that are also needed for mbind and friends. The patch also provides
a do_migrate_pages function that may be useful for cpusets to automatically
move memory. sys_migrate_pages does not modify policies in contrast to Ray's
implementation.
The current code here is based on the swap based page migration capability and
thus is not able to preserve the physical layout relative to it containing
nodeset (which may be a cpuset). When direct page migration becomes available
then the implementation needs to be changed to do a isomorphic move of pages
between different nodesets. The current implementation simply evicts all
pages in source nodeset that are not in the target nodeset.
Patch supports ia64, i386 and x86_64.
