Locks the k_itimer's it_lock member when handling the alarm timer's
expiry callback.

The regular posix timers defined in posix-timers.c have this lock held
during timout processing because their callbacks are routed through
posix_timer_fn().  The alarm timers follow a different path, so they
ought to grab the lock somewhere else.

Avoids sending a signal to alarm timers created with sigev_notify set to
SIGEV_NONE by checking for that special case in the timeout callback.

The regular posix timers avoid sending signals to SIGEV_NONE timers by
not scheduling any callbacks for them in the first place.  Although it
would be possible to do something similar for alarm timers, it's simpler
to handle this as a special case in the timeout.

Prior to this patch, the alarm timer would ignore the sigev_notify value
and try to deliver signals to the process anyway.  Even worse, the
sanity check for the value of sigev_signo is skipped when SIGEV_NONE was
specified, so the signal number could be bogus.  If sigev_signo was an
unitialized value (as it often would be if SIGEV_NONE is used), then
it's hard to predict which signal will be sent.

Returns the time remaining for an alarm timer, rather than the time at
which it is scheduled to expire.  If the timer has already expired or it
is not currently scheduled, the it_value's members are set to zero.

This new behavior matches that of the other posix-timers and the POSIX
specifications.

This is a change in user-visible behavior, and may break existing
applications.  Hopefully, few users rely on the old incorrect behavior.

timeval_to_jiffies tried to round a timeval up to an integral number
of jiffies, but the logic for doing so was incorrect: intervals
corresponding to exactly N jiffies would become N+1. This manifested
itself particularly repeatedly stopping/starting an itimer:

setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &val, NULL);
setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, NULL, &val);

would add a full tick to val, _even if it was exactly representable in
terms of jiffies_ (say, the result of a previous rounding.)  Doing
this repeatedly would cause unbounded growth in val.  So fix the math.

Here's what was wrong with the conversion: we essentially computed
(eliding seconds)

jiffies = usec  * (NSEC_PER_USEC/TICK_NSEC)

by using scaling arithmetic, which took the best approximation of
NSEC_PER_USEC/TICK_NSEC with denominator of 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC =
x/(2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC), and computed:

jiffies = (usec * x) >> USEC_JIFFIE_SC

and rounded this calculation up in the intermediate form (since we
can't necessarily exactly represent TICK_NSEC in usec.) But the
scaling arithmetic is a (very slight) *over*approximation of the true
value; that is, instead of dividing by (1 usec/ 1 jiffie), we
effectively divided by (1 usec/1 jiffie)-epsilon (rounding
down). This would normally be fine, but we want to round timeouts up,
and we did so by adding 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC - 1 before the shift; this
would be fine if our division was exact, but dividing this by the
slightly smaller factor was equivalent to adding just _over_ 1 to the
final result (instead of just _under_ 1, as desired.)

In particular, with HZ=1000, we consistently computed that 10000 usec
was 11 jiffies; the same was true for any exact multiple of
TICK_NSEC.

We could possibly still round in the intermediate form, adding
something less than 2^USEC_JIFFIE_SC - 1, but easier still is to
convert usec->nsec, round in nanoseconds, and then convert using
time*spec*_to_jiffies.  This adds one constant multiplication, and is
not observably slower in microbenchmarks on recent x86 hardware.

Tested: the following program:

int main() {
  struct itimerval zero = {{0, 0}, {0, 0}};
  /* Initially set to 10 ms. */
  struct itimerval initial = zero;
  initial.it_interval.tv_usec = 10000;
  setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &initial, NULL);
  /* Save and restore several times. */
  for (size_t i = 0; i < 10; ++i) {
    struct itimerval prev;
    setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &zero, &prev);
    /* on old kernels, this goes up by TICK_USEC every iteration */
    printf("previous value: %ld %ld %ld %ld\n",
           prev.it_interval.tv_sec, prev.it_interval.tv_usec,
           prev.it_value.tv_sec, prev.it_value.tv_usec);
    setitimer(ITIMER_PROF, &prev, NULL);
  }
    return 0;
}

The update_walltime() code works on the shadow timekeeper to make the
seqcount protected region as short as possible. But that update to the
shadow timekeeper does not update all timekeeper fields because it's
sufficient to do that once before it becomes life. One of these fields
is tkr.base_mono. That stays stale in the shadow timekeeper unless an
operation happens which copies the real timekeeper to the shadow.

The update function is called after the update calls to vsyscall and
pvclock. While not correct, it did not cause any problems because none
of the invoked update functions used base_mono.

commit cbcf2dd3 (x86: kvm: Make kvm_get_time_and_clockread()
nanoseconds based) changed that in the kvm pvclock update function, so
the stale mono_base value got used and caused kvm-clock to malfunction.

Put the update where it belongs and fix the issue.

The local nohz kick is currently used by perf which needs it to be
NMI-safe. Recent commit though (7d1311b9)
changed its implementation to fire the local kick using the remote kick
API. It was convenient to make the code more generic but the remote kick
isn't NMI-safe.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt pointed out that I further missed modifying
update_vsyscall after the wall_to_mono value was changed to a
timespec64.  This causes issues on powerpc32, which expects a 32bit
timespec.

This patch fixes the problem by properly converting from a timespec64 to
a timespec before passing the value on to the arch-specific vsyscall
logic.

[ Thomas is currently on vacation, but reviewed it and wanted me to send
  this fix on to you directly. ]

During suspend we call sched_clock_poll() to update the epoch and
accumulated time and reprogram the sched_clock_timer to fire
before the next wrap-around time. Unfortunately,
sched_clock_poll() doesn't restart the timer, instead it relies
on the hrtimer layer to do that and during suspend we aren't
calling that function from the hrtimer layer. Instead, we're
reprogramming the expires time while the hrtimer is enqueued,
which can cause the hrtimer tree to be corrupted. Furthermore, we
restart the timer during suspend but we update the epoch during
resume which seems counter-intuitive.

Let's fix this by saving the accumulated state and canceling the
timer during suspend. On resume we can update the epoch and
restart the timer similar to what we would do if we were starting
the clock for the first time.

By caching the ntp_tick_length() when we correct the frequency error,
and then using that cached value to accumulate error, we avoid large
initial errors when the tick length is changed.

This makes convergence happen much faster in the simulator, since the
initial error doesn't have to be slowly whittled away.

This initially seems like an accounting error, but Miroslav pointed out
that ntp_tick_length() can change mid-tick, so when we apply it in the
error accumulation, we are applying any recent change to the entire tick.

This approach chooses to apply changes in the ntp_tick_length() only to
the next tick, which allows us to calculate the freq correction before
using the new tick length, which avoids accummulating error.

Credit to Miroslav for pointing this out and providing the original patch
this functionality has been pulled out from, along with the rational.

The existing timekeeping_adjust logic has always been complicated
to understand. Further, since it was developed prior to NOHZ becoming
common, its not surprising it performs poorly when NOHZ is enabled.

Since Miroslav pointed out the problematic nature of the existing code
in the NOHZ case, I've tried to refactor the code to perform better.

The problem with the previous approach was that it tried to adjust
for the total cumulative error using a scaled dampening factor. This
resulted in large errors to be corrected slowly, while small errors
were corrected quickly. With NOHZ the timekeeping code doesn't know
how far out the next tick will be, so this results in bad
over-correction to small errors, and insufficient correction to large
errors.

Inspired by Miroslav's patch, I've refactored the code to try to
address the correction in two steps.

1) Check the future freq error for the next tick, and if the frequency
error is large, try to make sure we correct it so it doesn't cause
much accumulated error.

2) Then make a small single unit adjustment to correct any cumulative
error that has collected over time.

This method performs fairly well in the simulator Miroslav created.

Major credit to Miroslav for pointing out the issue, providing the
original patch to resolve this, a simulator for testing, as well as
helping debug and resolve issues in my implementation so that it
performed closer to his original implementation.

In the GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD update_vsyscall implementation,
we take the tk_xtime() value, which returns a timespec64, and
store it in a timespec.

This luckily is ok, since the only architectures that use
GENERIC_TIME_VSYSCALL_OLD are ia64 and ppc64, which are both
64 bit systems where timespec64 is the same as a timespec.

Even so, for cleanliness reasons, use the conversion function
to assign the proper type.

Tracers want a correlated time between the kernel instrumentation and
user space. We really do not want to export sched_clock() to user
space, so we need to provide something sensible for this.

Using separate data structures with an non blocking sequence count
based update mechanism allows us to do that. The data structure
required for the readout has a sequence counter and two copies of the
timekeeping data.

On the update side:

  smp_wmb();
  tkf->seq++;
  smp_wmb();
  update(tkf->base[0], tk);
  smp_wmb();
  tkf->seq++;
  smp_wmb();
  update(tkf->base[1], tk);

On the reader side:

  do {
     seq = tkf->seq;
     smp_rmb();
     idx = seq & 0x01;
     now = now(tkf->base[idx]);
     smp_rmb();
  } while (seq != tkf->seq)

So if a NMI hits the update of base[0] it will use base[1] which is
still consistent, but this timestamp is not guaranteed to be monotonic
across an update.

The timestamp is calculated by:

	now = base_mono + clock_delta * slope

So if the update lowers the slope, readers who are forced to the
not yet updated second array are still using the old steeper slope.

 tmono
 ^
 |    o  n
 |   o n
 |  u
 | o
 |o
 |12345678---> reader order

 o = old slope
 u = update
 n = new slope

So reader 6 will observe time going backwards versus reader 5.

While other CPUs are likely to be able observe that, the only way
for a CPU local observation is when an NMI hits in the middle of
the update. Timestamps taken from that NMI context might be ahead
of the following timestamps. Callers need to be aware of that and
deal with it.

Access to time requires to touch two cachelines at minimum

   1) The timekeeper data structure

   2) The clocksource data structure

The access to the clocksource data structure can be avoided as almost
all clocksource implementations ignore the argument to the read
callback, which is a pointer to the clocksource.

But the core needs to touch it to access the members @read and @mask.

So we are better off by copying the @read function pointer and the
@mask from the clocksource to the core data structure itself.

For the most used ktime_get() access all required data including the
@read and @mask copies fits together with the sequence counter into a
single 64 byte cacheline.

For the other time access functions we touch in the current code three
cache lines in the worst case. But with the clocksource data copies we
can reduce that to two adjacent cachelines, which is more efficient
than disjunct cache lines.

The only user of the cycle_last validation is the x86 TSC. In order to
provide NMI safe accessor functions for clock monotonic and
monotonic_raw we need to do that in the core.

We can't do the TSC specific

    if (now < cycle_last)
       	    now = cycle_last;

for the other wrapping around clocksources, but TSC has
CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(64) which actually does not mask out anything so if
now is less than cycle_last the subtraction will give a negative
result. So we can check for that in clocksource_delta() and return 0
for that case.

Implement and enable it for x86
