When using poll() to wait for the next period -- or avail_min samples --
one gets a consistent delay for each system call that is usually just a
little short of the selected period time. However, When using
snd_pcm_read/write(), one gets a jittery delay that alternates between
less than a millisecond and approximately two period times. This is
caused by snd_pcm_lib_{read,write}1() transferring any available samples
to the user's buffer and adjusting the application pointer prior to
sleeping to the end of the current period. When the next period
interrupt occurs, there is then less than avail_min samples remaining to
be transferred in the period, so we end up sleeping until a second
period occurs.

This is solved by using runtime->twake as the number of samples needed
for a wakeup in addition to selecting the proper wait queue to wake in
snd_pcm_update_state(). This requires twake to be non-zero when used
by snd_pcm_lib_{read,write}1() even if avail_min is zero.

This patch fixes thinko introduced in "last minutes" before commiting

It also fixes the condition checking if the first period after last

fscache_write_op() makes unnecessary checks of the page variable to see if it
is NULL.  It can't be NULL at those points as the kernel would already have
crashed a little higher up where we examined page->index.

Furthermore, unless radix_tree_gang_lookup_tag() can return 1 but no page, a
NULL pointer crash should not be encountered there as we can only get there if
r_t_g_l_t() returned 1.

Correct sk_forward_alloc handling for error_queue would need to use a
backlog of frames that softirq handler could not deliver because socket
is owned by user thread. Or extend backlog processing to be able to
process normal and error packets.

Another possibility is to not use mem charge for error queue, this is
what I implemented in this patch.

Rafael sees a sometimes crash at precpu_modfree from kernel/module.c; it
only occurred with another (since-reverted) patch, but that patch simply
changed timing to uncover this bug, it was otherwise unrelated.

The comment about the mod being freed is self-explanatory, but neither
Tejun nor I read it.  This bug was introduced in 259354de, after it
had previously been fixed in 6e2b7574.  How embarrassing.

In xt_register_table, xt_jumpstack_alloc is called first, later
xt_replace_table is used. But in xt_replace_table, xt_jumpstack_alloc
will be used again. Then the memory allocated by previous xt_jumpstack_alloc
will be leaked. We can simply remove the previous xt_jumpstack_alloc because
there aren't any users of newinfo between xt_jumpstack_alloc and
xt_replace_table.
