ata_dev_id_c_string() reads ATA string from the specified offset of
the given IDENTIFY PAGE and puts it in the specified buffer in trimmed
and NULL-terminated form.  The caller must supply a buffer which is
one byte larger than the maximum size of the target ID string.

In an effort to kill libata-specific assert() and use generic
WARN_ON(), this patch converts all assert(X)'s in libata core layer to
WARN_ON(!X)'s.  Most conversions are straight-forward logical negation
exception for the followings.

* In libata-core.c:ata_fill_sg(),
  assert(qc->n_elem > 0) is converted to WARN_ON(qc->n_elem == 0) because
  qc->n_elem is unsigned and unsigned <= 0 is weird.

* In libata-scsi.c:ata_gen_ata_desc/fixed_sense(),
  assert(NULL != qc->ap->ops->tf_read) is converted to
  WARN_ON(qc->ap->ops->tf_read == NULL), as there are no other users of
  'constant cond var' style in libata.

Also swap_page does need to ignore all reference bits when unmapping a

sys_shmdt() can manage shm segments which are covered by multiple vmas.  (This
can happen when a user uses mprotect() after shmat().)

This works well if shm is aligned to PAGE_SIZE, but if not, the last
segment cannot be detached.  It is because a comparison in sys_shmdt()

	(vma->vm_end - addr) < size
		addr == return address of shmat()
		size == shmsize, argments to shmget()

size should be aligned to PAGE_SIZE before being compared with vma->vm_end,
which is aligned.

Initialising cpu_possible_map to all-ones with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU means that

a) All for_each_cpu() loops will iterate across all NR_CPUS CPUs, rather
   than over possible ones.  That can be quite expensive.

b) Soon we'll be allocating per-cpu areas only for possible CPUs.  So with
   CPU_MASK_ALL, we'll be wasting memory.

I also switched voyager over to not use CPU_MASK_ALL in the non-CPU-hotplug
case.  Should be OK..

I note that parisc is also using CPU_MASK_ALL.  Suggest that it stop doing
that.

We are setting up sources for building external modules like this:

  /usr/src/linux-obj> # create a .config file
  /usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD oldconfig
  /usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD prepare
  /usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD scripts
  /usr/src/linux-obj> make -C /usr/src/linux O=$PWD clean

After that, external modules can be built with:

  /usr/src/module> make -C /usr/src/linux-obj M=$PWD

This fails for ppc32 because the `make clean' removes the
arch/powerpc/include directory.  This should be done in archmrproper
instead of in archclean.

It is possible that the reserved crashkernel region can be overlapped with
initrd since the bootloader sets the initrd location.  When the initrd
region is freed, the second kernel memory will not be contiguous.  The
Kexec_load can cause an oops since there is no contiguous memory to write
the second kernel or this memory could be used in the first kernel itself
and may not be part of the dump.  For example, on powerpc, the initrd is
located at 36MB and the crashkernel starts at 32MB.  The kexec_load caused
panic since writing into non-allocated memory (after 36MB).  We could see
the similar issue even on other archs.

One possibility is to move the initrd outside of crashkernel region.  But,
the initrd region will be freed anyway before the system is up.  This patch
fixes this issue and frees only regions that are not part of crashkernel
memory in case overlaps.

I don't think the code is quite ready, which is why I asked for Peter's
additions to also be merged before I acked it (although it turned out that
it still isn't quite ready with his additions either).

Basically I have had similar observations to Suresh in that it does not
play nicely with the rest of the balancing infrastructure (and raised
similar concerns in my review).

The samples (group of 4) I got for "maximum recorded imbalance" on a 2x2
SMP+HT Xeon are as follows:

            | Following boot | hackbench 20        | hackbench 40
 -----------+----------------+---------------------+---------------------
 2.6.16-rc2 | 30,37,100,112  | 5600,5530,6020,6090 | 6390,7090,8760,8470
 +nosmpnice |  3, 2,  4,  2  |   28, 150, 294, 132 |  348, 348, 294, 347

Hackbench raw performance is down around 15% with smpnice (but that in
itself isn't a huge deal because it is just a benchmark).  However, the
samples show that the imbalance passed into move_tasks is increased by
about a factor of 10-30.  I think this would also go some way to explaining
latency blips turning up in the balancing code (though I haven't actually
measured that).

We'll probably have to revert this in the SUSE kernel.

Implement ata_scsi_timed_out(), to be used as

Without this function, the following race exists.

If a qc completes after SCSI timer expires but before libata EH kicks
in, the qc gets completed but the scsicmd still gets passed to libata
EH resulting in ->eng_timeout invocation with NULL qc, which none is
handling properly.

This patch makes sure that scmd and qc share the same lifetime.
