This patch allows us to display information about all of the logical volumes
configured on a particular controller without stepping on memory even when
there are many volumes (128 or more) configured.

sys_tee() currently is a bit eager in returning -EAGAIN, it may do so
even if we don't have a chance of anymore data becoming available. So
improve the logic and only return -EAGAIN if we have an attached writer
to the input pipe.

  Revert "unique end pointer" patch
  slab: avoid double initialization & do initialization in 1 place

1. exit_notify() always calls kill_orphaned_pgrp(). This is wrong, we
   should do this only when the whole process exits.

2. exit_notify() uses "current" as "ignored_task", obviously wrong.
   Use ->group_leader instead.

Test case:

	void hup(int sig)
	{
		printf("HUP received\n");
	}

	void *tfunc(void *arg)
	{
		sleep(2);
		printf("sub-thread exited\n");
		return NULL;
	}

	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
	{
		if (!fork()) {
			signal(SIGHUP, hup);
			kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP);
			exit(0);
		}

		pthread_t thr;
		pthread_create(&thr, NULL, tfunc, NULL);

		sleep(1);
		printf("main thread exited\n");
		syscall(__NR_exit, 0);

		return 0;
	}

output:

	main thread exited
	HUP received
	Hangup

With this patch the output is:

	main thread exited
	sub-thread exited
	HUP received

p->exit_state != 0 doesn't mean this process is dead, it may have
sub-threads.  Change the code to use "p->exit_state && thread_group_empty(p)"
instead.

Without this patch, ^Z doesn't deliver SIGTSTP to the foreground process
if the main thread has exited.

However, the new check is not perfect either.  There is a window when
exit_notify() drops tasklist and before release_task().  Suppose that
the last (non-leader) thread exits.  This means that entire group exits,
but thread_group_empty() is not true yet.

As Eric pointed out, is_global_init() is wrong as well, but I did not
dare to do other changes.

Just for the record, has_stopped_jobs() is absolutely wrong too.  But we
can't fix it now, we should first fix SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED issues.

Even with this patch ^Z doesn't play well with the dead main thread.
The task is stopped correctly but do_wait(WSTOPPED) won't see it.  This
is another unrelated issue, will be (hopefully) fixed separately.

The new code that removed the limitation on the execve string size
(which was historically 32 pages) replaced it with a much softer limit
based on RLIMIT_STACK which is usually much larger than the traditional
limit.  See commit b6a2fea3 ("mm:
variable length argument support") for details.

However, if you have a small stack limit (perhaps because you need lots
of stacks in a threaded environment), the new heuristic of allowing up
to 1/4th of RLIMIT_STACK to be used for argument and environment strings
could actually be smaller than the old limit.

So just say that it's ok to have up to ARG_MAX strings regardless of the
value of RLIMIT_STACK, and check the rlimit only when going over that
traditional limit.

(Of course, if you actually have a *really* small stack limit, the whole
stack itself will be limited before you hit ARG_MAX, but that has always
been true and is clearly the right behaviour anyway).

The only tricky part is we need to adjust the PTE insertion loop to
cater for holes in the page table. The PTEs for each segment start on
a 4K boundary, so with 16M pages we have 16 PTEs per segment and then
a gap to the next 4K page boundary.

It might be possible to allocate the PTEs for each segment separately,
saving the memory currently filling the gaps. However we'd need to
check that's OK with the hardware, and that it actually saves memory.

We use n_pte_pages to calculate the stride through the page tables, but
we also use it to set the NPPT value in the segment table entry. That is
defined as the number of 4K pages per segment, so we should calculate
it as such regardless of the IOMMU page size.

Currently the cell IOMMU code allocates the entire IOMMU page table in a
contiguous chunk. This is nice and tidy, but for machines with larger
amounts of RAM the page table allocation can fail due to it simply being
too large.

So split the segment table and page table setup routine, and arrange to
have the dynamic and fixed page tables allocated separately.
