Pulling the ethernet cable on a 2.6.27-rc system with NFS mounts
currently leads to an ongoing flood of soft lockup detector backtraces
for all tasks blocked on the NFS mounts when the hickup takes
longer than 120s.

I don't think NFS problems should be all that noisy.

Luckily there's a reasonably easy way to distingush this case.

Don't report task softlockup warnings for tasks in TASK_KILLABLE
state, which is used by the network file systems.

I believe this patch is a 2.6.27 candidate.

This reverts commit a2bd7274.

It wasn't really right to begin with (there's a better fix for the
problem with e820 reservations clashing with PCI BAR's pending), but it
also actually causes more regressions, so it should be reverted even
before the better fix is finalized.

Rafael reports that this commit broke AHCI detection, and thus causes
the kernel to not boot on his quad core test box.

When sysctl_sched_rt_runtime is set to something other than -1 and the
CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED kernel parameter is NOT enabled, we get into a state
where we see one or more CPUs idling forvever even though there are
real-time
tasks in their rt runqueue that are able to run (no longer throttled).

The sequence is:

- A real-time task is running when the timer sets the rt runqueue
    to throttled, and the rt task is resched_task()ed and switched
    out, and idle is switched in since there are no non-rt tasks to
    run on that cpu.

- Eventually the do_sched_rt_period_timer() runs and un-throttles
    the rt runqueue, but we just exit the timer interrupt and go back
    to executing the idle task in the idle loop forever.

If we change the sched_rt_rq_enqueue() routine to use some of the code
from the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED enabled version of this same routine and
resched_task() the currently executing task (idle in our case) if it is
a lower priority task than the higher rt task in the now un-throttled
runqueue, the problem is no longer observed.

Some DVB adapters do not support the special I2C transaction that we
use for probing purposes. There's no point in logging this event, as
there's nothing the user can do and in general there is no actual
problem. So, degrade one of these messages to a debug message, and
move the other one around so that it is only printed on bogus drivers.

Here's the patch. It shrinks the stack from 1152 bytes to 192 bytes (the
first version, that only did the e1000_option part, got it down to 600
bytes). About half comes from not using multiple "e1000_option"

I've been painstakingly debugging the issue with suspend to ram and
ftraced. The 2.6.28 code does not have this issue, but since the mcount
recording is not going to be in 27, this must be solved for the ftrace
daemon version.

The resume from suspend to ram would reboot because it was triple
faulting. Debugging further, I found that calling the mcount function
itself was not an issue, but it would fault when it incremented
preempt_count. preempt_count is on the tasks info structure that is on the
low memory address of the task's stack.  For some reason, it could not
write to it. Resuming out of suspend to ram does quite a lot of funny
tricks to get to work, so it is not surprising at all that simply doing a
preempt_disable() would cause a fault.

Thanks to Rafael for suggesting to add a "while (1);" to find the place in
resuming that is causing the fault. I would place the loop somewhere in
the code, compile and reboot and see if it would either reboot (hit the
fault) or simply hang (hit the loop).  Doing this over and over again, I
narrowed it down that it was happening in enable_nonboot_cpus.

At this point, I found that it is easier to simply disable tracing around
the suspend code, instead of searching for the particular function that
can not handle doing a preempt_disable.

This patch disables the tracer as it suspends and reenables it on resume.

I tested this patch on my Laptop, and it can resume fine with the patch.

This reverts commit 5b6155ee, because
the block device ioctl's really aren't ready for it.

In particular, the "struct file *" and the "struct inode *" arguments do
not necessarily match, which means that the unlocked version of the
ioctl (that only gets a "struct file *") isn't actually able to handle
the cases it needs to handle.

This fixes bugzilla

Ordinarily, memory holes in flatmem still have a valid memmap and is safe
to use. However, an architecture (ARM) frees up the memmap backing memory
holes on the assumption it is never used. /proc/pagetypeinfo reads the
whole range of pages in a zone believing that the memmap is valid and that
pfn_valid will return false if it is not. On ARM, freeing the memmap breaks
the page->zone linkages even though pfn_valid() returns true and the kernel
can oops shortly afterwards due to accessing a bogus struct zone *.

This patch lets architectures say when FLATMEM can have holes in the
memmap. Rather than an expensive check for valid memory, /proc/pagetypeinfo
will confirm that the page linkages are still valid by checking page->zone
is still the expected zone. The lookup of page_zone is safe as there is a
limited range of memory that is accessed when calling page_zone.  Even if
page_zone happens to return the correct zone, the impact is that the counters
in /proc/pagetypeinfo are slightly off but fragmentation monitoring is
unlikely to be relevant on an embedded system.
