      Add missing init section definitions · 37c514e3
      Sam Ravnborg 提交于
      When adding __devinitconst etc. the __initconst variant
      were missed.
      Add this one and proper definitions for .head.text for use
      in .S files.
      The naming .head.text is preferred over .text.head as the
      latter will conflict for a function named head when introducing
      -ffunctions-sections.

      kbuild: fix reversed symbol name order in modpost · b1d2675a
      Geert Uytterhoeven 提交于
      XXXINIT_TO_INIT and XXXEXIT_TO_EXIT warnings use the reversed symbol name order
      in the suggestion, e.g.:
      
          WARNING: vmlinux.o(.meminit.text+0x36c): Section mismatch in reference from the function free_area_init_core() to the function .init.text:setup_usemap()
          The function __meminit free_area_init_core() references
          a function __init setup_usemap().
          If free_area_init_core is only used by setup_usemap then
          annotate free_area_init_core with a matching annotation.

      Revert "SLUB: Alternate fast paths using cmpxchg_local" · 00e962c5
      Linus Torvalds 提交于
      This reverts commit 1f84260c, which is
      suspected to be the reason for some very occasional and hard-to-trigger
      crashes that usually look related to memory allocation (mostly reported
      in networking, but since that's generally the most common source of
      shortlived allocations - and allocations in interrupt contexts - that in
      itself is not a big clue).
      
      See for example
      	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9973
      	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/19/278
      etc.
      
      One promising suspicion for what the root cause of bug is (which also
      explains why it's so hard to trigger in practice) came from Eric
      Dumazet:
      
         "I wonder how SLUB_FASTPATH is supposed to work, since it is affected
          by a classical ABA problem of lockless algo.
      
          cmpxchg_local(&c->freelist, object, object[c->offset]) can succeed,
          while an interrupt came (on this cpu), and several allocations were
          done, and one free was performed at the end of this interruption, so
          'object' was recycled.
      
          c->freelist can then contain the previous value (object), but
          object[c->offset] was changed by IRQ.
      
          We then put back in freelist an already allocated object."
      
      but another reason for the revert is simply that everybody agrees that
      this code was the main suspect just by virtue of the pattern of oopses.
