Add const modifiers to a few struct nls_table's member pointers in
include/linux/nls.h and adds a lot of const's in fs/nls/*.c files.

Resulting changes as visible by size:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
 113612  481216    2368  597196   91ccc nls.org/built-in.o
 593548    3296     288  597132   91c8c nls/built-in.o

Apparently compiler managed to optimize code a bit better
because of const-ness.

No other changes are made.

This patch makes shrink_dcache_sb consistent with dentry pruning policy.

On the first pass we iterate over dentry unused list and prepare some
dentries for removal.

However, since the existing code moves evicted dentries to the beginning of
the LRU it can happen that fresh dentries from other superblocks will be
inserted *before* our dentries.

This can result in significant slowdown of shrink_dcache_sb().  Moreover,
for virtual filesystems like unionfs which can call dput() during dentries
kill existing code results in O(n^2) complexity.

We observed 2 minutes shrink_dcache_sb() with only 35000 dentries.

To avoid this effects we propose to isolate sb dentries at the end
of LRU list.

Remove the old-fashioned lk201 driver under drivers/tc/ that used to be
used by the old dz.c and zs.c drivers, which is now orphan code referred to
from nowhere and does not build anymore.  A modern replacement is available
as drivers/input/keyboard/lkkbd.c.

There are no plans to do anything about this piece of code and it does not
fit anywhere anymore, so it is not just a matter of maintenance or the lack
of.  There are still some bits that might be added to the new lkkbd.c
driver based on the old code, and the embedded hardware documentation which
is otherwise quite hard to get hold of might be useful to keep too.  Both
of these can be done separately though.  RIP.

Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous to make it easier for
NFS to make use of them.  There are now accessor functions that do
asynchronous constructions, a wait function to wait for construction to
complete, and a completion function for the key type to indicate completion
of construction.

Note that the construction queue is now gone.  Instead, keys under
construction are linked in to the appropriate keyring in advance, and that
anyone encountering one must wait for it to be complete before they can use
it.  This is done automatically for userspace.

The following auxiliary changes are also made:

 (1) Key type implementation stuff is split from linux/key.h into
     linux/key-type.h.

 (2) AF_RXRPC provides a way to allocate null rxrpc-type keys so that AFS does
     not need to call key_instantiate_and_link() directly.

 (3) Adjust the debugging macros so that they're -Wformat checked even if
     they are disabled, and make it so they can be enabled simply by defining
     __KDEBUG to be consistent with other code of mine.

 (3) Documentation.

reiserfs_invalidatepage will refuse to free pages if they have been logged
in data=journal mode, or were pinned down by a data=ordered operation.  For
data=journal, this is fairly easy to trigger just with fsx-linux, and it
results in a large number of pages hanging around on the LRUs with
page->mapping == NULL.

Calling try_to_free_buffers when reiserfs decides it is done with the page
allows it to be freed earlier, and with much less VM thrashing.  Lock
ordering rules mean that reiserfs can't call lock_page when it is releasing
the buffers, so TestSetPageLocked is used instead.  Contention on these
pages should be rare, so it should be sufficient most of the time.

dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) were the earliest attempt on a generalized
cache managment API for I/O purposes.  Originally it was basically the raw
MIPS low level cache API exported to the entire world.  The API has
suffered from a lack of documentation, was not very widely used unlike it's
more modern brothers and can easily be replaced by dma_cache_sync.  So
remove it rsp.  turn the surviving bits back into an arch private API, as

Negative shifts are not allowed in C (the result is undefined).  Same thing
with full-width shifts.

It works on most platforms but not on the VAX with gcc 4.0.1 (it results in an
"operand reserved" fault).

Shifting by more than the width of the value on the left is also not
allowed.  I think the extra '>> 1' tacked on at the end in the original
code was an attempt to work around that.  Getting rid of that is an extra
feature of this patch.

Here's the chapter and verse, taken from the final draft of the C99
standard ("6.5.7 Bitwise shift operators", paragraph 3):

  "The integer promotions are performed on each of the operands. The
  type of the result is that of the promoted left operand. If the
  value of the right operand is negative or is greater than or equal
  to the width of the promoted left operand, the behavior is
  undefined."

Thank you to Jan-Benedict Glaw, Christoph Hellwig, Maciej Rozycki, Pekka
Enberg, Andreas Schwab, and Christoph Lameter for review.  Special thanks
to Andreas for spotting that my fix only removed half the undefined
behaviour.

Various architectures may call bust_spinlocks() recursively; the function
itself, however, doesn't appear to be meant to be called in this manner.
Nevertheless, this doesn't appear to be a problem as long as
bust_spinlocks(0) doesn't get called twice in a row (otherwise,
unblank_screen() may enter the scheduler).  However, at least on i386 die()
has been capable of returning (and on other architectures this should
really be that way, too) when notify_die() returns NOTIFY_STOP.

Short of getting a reply to a respective query, this patch makes
bust_spinlocks() increment/decrement oops_in_progress, and wake klogd only
when the count drops back to zero.

"The amount of code required to implement ramfs is tiny, because all the
work is done by the existing Linux caching infrastructure.  Basically,
you're mounting the disk cache as a filesystem.  Because of this, ramfs is
not an optional component removable via menuconfig, since there would be

This fixes a problem with the way cciss was filling out the "errors" field
of the request structure upon completion of requests.  Previously, it just
put a 1 or a 0 in there and used the negation of this as the uptodate
parameter to one of the functions in the block layer, being a block device.
 For the SG_IO ioctl, this was not sufficient, and we noticed that, for

Allow NBD I/O to be cancelled when a network outage occurs.  Previously, I/O
would just hang, and if enough I/O was hung in nbd, the system (at least
user-level) would completely hang until a TCP timeout (default, 15 minutes)
occurred.

The patch introduces a new ioctl NBD_SET_TIMEOUT that allows a transmit
timeout value (in seconds) to be specified.  Any network send that exceeds the
timeout will be cancelled and the nbd connection will be shut down.  I've
tested with various timeout values and 6 seconds seems to be a good choice for
the timeout.  If the NBD_SET_TIMEOUT ioctl is not called, you get the old (I/O
hang) behavior.
