add_timer_on() can add a timer on a CPU which is currently in a long
idle sleep, but the timer wheel is not reevaluated by the nohz code on
that CPU. So a timer can be delayed for quite a long time. This
triggered a false positive in the clocksource watchdog code.

To avoid this we need to wake up the idle CPU and enforce the
reevaluation of the timer wheel for the next timer event.

Add a function, which checks a given CPU for idle state, marks the
idle task with NEED_RESCHED and sends a reschedule IPI to notify the
other CPU of the change in the timer wheel.

Call this function from add_timer_on().

The original justification for cap_task_kill() was as follows:

	check_kill_permission() does appropriate uid equivalence checks.
	However with file capabilities it becomes possible for an
	unprivileged user to execute a file with file capabilities
	resulting in a more privileged task with the same uid.

However now that cap_task_kill() always returns 0 (permission
granted) when p->uid==current->uid, the whole hook is worthless,
and only likely to create more subtle problems in the corner cases
where it might still be called but return -EPERM.  Those cases
are basically when uids are different but euid/suid is equivalent
as per the check in check_kill_permission().

One example of a still-broken application is 'at' for non-root users.

This patch removes cap_task_kill().

In the process of writing up the mechanical proof of correctness for the
dynticks/preemptable-RCU interface, I noticed misplaced memory barriers in
rcu_enter_nohz() and rcu_exit_nohz().

This patch puts them in the right place and adds a comment.  The key thing to
keep in mind is that rcu_enter_nohz() is -exiting- the mode that can legally
execute RCU read-side critical sections.

The memory barrier must be between any potential RCU read-side critical
sections and the increment of the per-CPU dynticks_progress_counter, and thus
must come -before- this increment.  And vice versa for rcu_exit_nohz().

The locking in the scheduler is probably saving us for the moment.

Also, switch to smp_mb() - we don't need a barrier for uniprocessor kernels.

Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

improve affine wakeups. Maintain the 'overlap' metric based on CFS's
sum_exec_runtime - which means the amount of time a task executes
after it wakes up some other task.

Use the 'overlap' for the wakeup decisions: if the 'overlap' is short,
it means there's strong workload coupling between this task and the
woken up task. If the 'overlap' is large then the workload is decoupled
and the scheduler will move them to separate CPUs more easily.

( Also slightly move the preempt_check within try_to_wake_up() - this has
  no effect on functionality but allows 'early wakeups' (for still-on-rq
  tasks) to be correctly accounted as well.)

The problem can be triggered with a high amount of host->guest traffic.
I think its the following race:

poll says netif_rx_complete
poll calls enable_cb
enable_cb opens the interrupt mask
a new packet comes, an interrupt is triggered----\
enable_cb sees that there is more work           |
enable_cb disables the interrupt                 |
       .                                         V
       .                            interrupt is delivered
       .                            skb_recv_done does atomic napi test, ok
 some waiting                       disable_cb is called->check fails->bang!
       .
poll would do napi check
poll would do disable_cb

The fix is to let enable_cb not disable the interrupt again, but expect the
caller to do the cleanup if it returns false. In that case, the interrupt is
only disabled, if the napi test_set_bit was successful.

Introduced in commit-id 9e2779fa and
ifdef'ed out for nommu in 8ca3ed87, both
approaches end up breaking the nommu build in different ways. An
impressive feat for a 2-liner.

Current is_vmalloc_addr() users fall in to two camps:

	- Determining whether to use vfree()/kfree()
	- Whether to do vmlist traversal (only /proc/kcore).

Since we don't support /proc/kcore on nommu, that leaves the
vfree()/kfree() determination use cases. nommu vfree() happens to be a
wrapper to kfree() anyways, so is_vmalloc_addr() can always return 0
and end up with the right behaviour.

The first version of the ntp_interval/tick_length inconsistent usage patch was
recently merged as bbe4d18a

http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=bbe4d18ac2e058c56adb0cd71f49d9ed3216a405

While the fix did greatly improve the situation, it was correctly pointed out
by Roman that it does have a small bug: If the users change clocksources after
the system has been running and NTP has made corrections, the correctoins made
against the old clocksource will be applied against the new clocksource,
causing error.

The second attempt, which corrects the issue in the NTP_INTERVAL_LENGTH
definition has also made it up-stream as commit
e13a2e61

http://git.kernel.org/gitweb.cgi?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e13a2e61dd5152f5499d2003470acf9c838eab84

Roman has correctly pointed out that CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST is calculated
based on the PIT's frequency, and isn't really relevant to non-PIT
driven clocksources (that is, clocksources other then jiffies and pit).

This patch reverts both of those changes, and simply removes
CLOCK_TICK_ADJUST.

This does remove the granularity error correction for users of PIT and Jiffies
clocksource users, but the granularity error but for the majority of users, it
should be within the 500ppm range NTP can accommodate for.

For systems that have granularity errors greater then 500ppm, the
"ntp_tick_adj=" boot option can be used to compensate.

Current /proc/net is done with so called "shadows", but current
implementation is broken and has little chances to get fixed.

The problem is that dentries subtree of /proc/net directory has
fancy revalidation rules to make processes living in different
net namespaces see different entries in /proc/net subtree, but
currently, tasks see in the /proc/net subdir the contents of any
other namespace, depending on who opened the file first.

The proposed fix is to turn /proc/net into a symlink, which points
to /proc/self/net, which in turn shows what previously was in
/proc/net - the network-related info, from the net namespace the
appropriate task lives in.

# ls -l /proc/net
