    ide: switch idedisk_prepare_flush() to use REQ_TYPE_ATA_TASKFILE requests

...

broke flush requests.

Allocating IDE command structure on the stack for flush requests is not
a very brilliant idea:

- idedisk_prepare_flush() only prepares the request and it doesn't wait
  for it to be completed

- there are can be multiple flush requests queued in the queue

Fix the problem (per hints from James Bottomley) by:
- dynamically allocating ide_task_t instance using kmalloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC)
- adding new taskfile flag (IDE_TFLAG_DYN)
- calling kfree() in ide_end_drive_command() if IDE_TFLAG_DYN is set
  (while at it rename 'args' to 'task' and fix whitespace damage)

[ This will be fixed properly before 2.6.25 but this bug is rather
  critical and the proper solution requires some more work + testing. ]

Thanks to Sebastian Siewior and Christoph Hellwig for reporting the
problem and testing patches (extra thanks to Sebastian for bisecting
it to the guilty commmit).

This is a void function attempting to return the return value from
another void function, which seems harmless but extremely weird, and
apparently makes some compilers complain.

While we're there, clean up a little (e.g. the switch statement had a
minor style problem and seemed overkill as long as there's only one
case).

Thanks to Trond for noticing this.

We want to allow different implementations of pci_raw_ops for standard
and extended config space on x86.  Rather than clutter generic code with
knowledge of this, we make pci_raw_ops private to x86 and use it to
implement the new raw interface -- raw_pci_read() and raw_pci_write().

Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan.

hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to
the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that
if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we
don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack
frame.

Introduced by commit 04c22714
hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier

Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change
hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp.

Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if
nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp
if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem
even if nanosleep() returns 0.

NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other
bugs. Fixed by the next patch.

This flag is simply a generic "this is a crash/burn test filesystem"
marker.  If it is set, then filesystem code which is "in development"
will be allowed to mount the filesystem.  Filesystem code which is not
considered ready for prime-time will check for this flag, and if it is
not set, it will refuse to touch the filesystem.

As we start rolling ext4 out to distro's like Fedora, et. al, this makes
it less likely that a user might accidentally start using ext4 on a
production filesystem; a bad thing, since that will essentially make it
be unfsckable until e2fsprogs catches up.

DEBUG_PAGEALLOC was not possible on 64-bit due to its early-bootup
hardcoded reliance on PSE pages, and the unrobustness of the runtime
splitup of large pages. The splitup ended in recursive calls to
alloc_pages() when a page for a pte split was requested.

Avoid the recursion with a preallocated page pool, which is used to
split up large mappings and gets refilled in the return path of
kernel_map_pages after the split has been done. The size of the page
pool is adjusted to the available memory.

This part just implements the page pool and the initialization w/o
using it yet.

Specifically the boot time page tables in a CONFIG_X86_PAE=y enabled
kernel are in PAE format.

early_ioremap is updated to use the standard page table accessors.

Clear any mappings beyond max_low_pfn from the boot page tables in
native_pagetable_setup_start because the initial mappings can extend
beyond the range of physical memory and into the vmalloc area.

Add function definition and extern variables to asm-x86/acpi.h.

All of these are used in bus.c in ifdef(CONFIG_X86) sections, so are
only added to the x86 include headers.  boot.c already includes acpi.h
so no changes are needed there.

We had planned to use the 'owner' field for allowing re-allocation of
MFGPTs; however, doing it by module owner name isn't flexible enough.  So,
drop this for now.  If it turns out that we need timers in modules, we'll
need to come up with a scheme that matches the write-once fields of the
MFGPTx_SETUP register, and drops ponies from the sky.

mm_cgroup() is exclusively used to test whether an mm's mem_cgroup pointer
is pointing to a specific cgroup.  Instead of returning the pointer, we can
just do the test itself in a new macro:

	vm_match_cgroup(mm, cgroup)

returns non-zero if the mm's mem_cgroup points to cgroup.  Otherwise it
returns zero.

Does it ever make sense to ask "is this pte a swap entry?" on a machine

Add support for different number of page table levels dependent
on the highest address used for a process. This will cause a 31 bit
process to use a two level page table instead of the four level page
table that is the default after the pud has been introduced. Likewise
a normal 64 bit process will use three levels instead of four. Only
if a process runs out of the 4 tera bytes which can be addressed with
a three level page table the fourth level is dynamically added. Then
the process can use up to 8 peta byte.
