during some development we suspected a case where we left something
in a notifier chain that was from a module that was unloaded already...
and that sort of thing is rather hard to track down.

This patch adds a very simple sanity check (which isn't all that
expensive) to make sure the notifier we're about to call is
actually from either the kernel itself of from a still-loaded
module, avoiding a hard-to-chase-down crash.

This is because it was default y and && EMBEDDED. But I don't
really see a need for a non kernel developer to have their

So move the Kconfig into the kernel debugging section and
also drop the default y and the EMBEDDED check.

The exported copy of videodev2.h contains this line:

	#define #include <sys/time.h>

This is because for some reason it defines __user for itself -- despite
the fact that we remove all instances of __user when exporting headers.
_All_ pointers in userspace are user pointers. Fix it by removing the
unnecessary '#define __user' from the file.

The new headers ivtv.h and ivtvfb.h would have the same problem... if
whoever put them there had actually remembered to add them to the Kbuild
file while he was at it. Fix those too, and export them as was
presumably intended.

Note that includes of <linux/compiler.h> are also stripped by the header
export process, so those don't need to be conditional.

With gcc 4.3 and later, a pointer that has already been dereferenced is
assumed not to be null since it should have caused a segmentation fault
otherwise, hence any subsequent test against NULL is optimized away.

Current inline asm constraint used in the implementation of prefetch()
makes gcc believe that the pointer is dereferenced even though the PLD
instruction does not load any data and does not cause a segmentation
fault on null pointers, which causes all sorts of interesting results
when reaching the end of a linked lists for example.

Let's use a better constraint to properly represent the actual usage of
the pointer value.

poll_idle was added to CPUIDLE, just as a low latency idle handler, to be
used in cases when user desires CPUs not to enter any idle state at all. It
was supposed to be a run time idle=poll option to the user. But, it was indeed
getting used during normal menu and ladder governor default case, with no
special user setting (Reported by Linus Torvalds).

Change below ensures that poll_idle will not be used unless user explicitly
asks pm_qos infrastructure for zero latency requirement.

Pardo reported that 64-bit threaded apps, if their stacks exceed the
combined size of ~4GB, slow down drastically in pthread_create() - because
glibc uses MAP_32BIT to allocate the stacks. The use of MAP_32BIT is
a legacy hack - to speed up context switching on certain early model
64-bit P4 CPUs.

So introduce a new flag to be used by glibc instead, to not constrain
64-bit apps like this.

glibc can switch to this new flag straight away - it will be ignored
by the kernel. If those old CPUs ever matter to anyone, support for
it can be implemented.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x17a3e): Section mismatch in reference from the function set_pte_vaddr_pud() to the function .init.text:spp_getpage()
The function set_pte_vaddr_pud() references
the function __init spp_getpage().
This is often because set_pte_vaddr_pud lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of spp_getpage is wrong.

spp_getpage is called from __init (__init_extra_mapping) and
non __init (set_pte_vaddr_pud) functions, so it can't be __init.
Unfortunately it calls alloc_bootmem_pages which is __init,
but does it only when bootmem allocator is available (after_bootmem == 0).
