sparseirq should only be used with SMP for now.

Impact: new feature

Problem on distro kernels: irq_desc[NR_IRQS] takes megabytes of RAM with
NR_CPUS set to large values. The goal is to be able to scale up to much
larger NR_IRQS value without impacting the (important) common case.

To solve this, we generalize irq_desc[NR_IRQS] to an (optional) array of
irq_desc pointers.

When CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ=y is used, we use kzalloc_node to get irq_desc,
this also makes the IRQ descriptors NUMA-local (to the site that calls
request_irq()).

This gets rid of the irq_cfg[] static array on x86 as well: irq_cfg now
uses desc->chip_data for x86 to store irq_cfg.

Impact: extend and enable the function graph tracer to 64-bit x86

This patch implements the support for function graph tracer under x86-64.
Both static and dynamic tracing are supported.

This causes some small CPP conditional asm on arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.c I
wanted to use probe_kernel_read/write to make the return address
saving/patching code more generic but it causes tracing recursion.

That would be perhaps useful to implement a notrace version of these
function for other archs ports.

Note that arch/x86/process_64.c is not traced, as in X86-32. I first
thought __switch_to() was responsible of crashes during tracing because I
believed current task were changed inside but that's actually not the
case (actually yes, but not the "current" pointer).

So I will have to investigate to find the functions that harm here, to
enable tracing of the other functions inside (but there is no issue at
this time, while process_64.c stays out of -pg flags).

A little possible race condition is fixed inside this patch too. When the
tracer allocate a return stack dynamically, the current depth is not
initialized before but after. An interrupt could occur at this time and,
after seeing that the return stack is allocated, the tracer could try to
trace it with a random uninitialized depth. It's a prevention, even if I
hadn't problems with it.

Impact: add infrastructure for function-return tracing

Add low level support for ftrace return tracing.

This plug-in stores return addresses on the thread_info structure of
the current task.

The index of the current return address is initialized when the task
is the first one (init) and when a process forks (the child). It is
not needed when a task does a sys_execve because after this syscall,
it still needs to return on the kernel functions it called.

Note that the code of return_to_handler has been suggested by Steven
Rostedt as almost all of the ideas of improvements in this V3.

For purpose of security, arch/x86/kernel/process_32.c is not traced
because __switch_to() changes the current task during its execution.
That could cause inconsistency in the stored return address of this
function even if I didn't have any crash after testing with tracing on
this function enabled.

Impact: quick start and stop of function tracer

This patch adds a way to disable the function tracer quickly without
the need to run kstop_machine. It adds a new variable called
function_trace_stop which will stop the calls to functions from mcount
when set.  This is just an on/off switch and does not handle recursion
like preempt_disable().

It's main purpose is to help other tracers/debuggers start and stop tracing
fuctions without the need to call kstop_machine.

The config option HAVE_FUNCTION_TRACE_MCOUNT_TEST is added for archs
that implement the testing of the function_trace_stop in the mcount
arch dependent code. Otherwise, the test is done in the C code.

x86 is the only arch at the moment that supports this.

This patch implements a new freezer subsystem in the control groups
framework.  It provides a way to stop and resume execution of all tasks in
a cgroup by writing in the cgroup filesystem.

The freezer subsystem in the container filesystem defines a file named
freezer.state.  Writing "FROZEN" to the state file will freeze all tasks
in the cgroup.  Subsequently writing "RUNNING" will unfreeze the tasks in
the cgroup.  Reading will return the current state.

* Examples of usage :

   # mkdir /containers/freezer
   # mount -t cgroup -ofreezer freezer  /containers
   # mkdir /containers/0
   # echo $some_pid > /containers/0/tasks

to get status of the freezer subsystem :

   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

to freeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo FROZEN > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FREEZING
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   FROZEN

to unfreeze all tasks in the container :

   # echo RUNNING > /containers/0/freezer.state
   # cat /containers/0/freezer.state
   RUNNING

This is the basic mechanism which should do the right thing for user space
task in a simple scenario.

It's important to note that freezing can be incomplete.  In that case we
return EBUSY.  This means that some tasks in the cgroup are busy doing
something that prevents us from completely freezing the cgroup at this
time.  After EBUSY, the cgroup will remain partially frozen -- reflected
by freezer.state reporting "FREEZING" when read.  The state will remain
"FREEZING" until one of these things happens:

	1) Userspace cancels the freezing operation by writing "RUNNING" to
		the freezer.state file
	2) Userspace retries the freezing operation by writing "FROZEN" to
		the freezer.state file (writing "FREEZING" is not legal
		and returns EIO)
	3) The tasks that blocked the cgroup from entering the "FROZEN"
		state disappear from the cgroup's set of tasks.
