The ordering of the clock bases is historical due to the
CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC constants. Now the hrtimer bases
have their own enumeration due to the gap between CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME. So we can be more clever as most timers end up on the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC base due to the virtue of POSIX declaring that
relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers are not affected by time changes. In
desktop environments this is slowly changing as applications switch to
absolute timers, but I've observed empty CLOCK_REALTIME bases often
enough. There is no performance penalty or overhead when
CLOCK_REALTIME timers are active, but in case they are not we don't
skip over a full cache line.

Peter is concerned about the extra scan of CLOCK_REALTIME_COS in the
timer interrupt. Yes, I did not think about it, because the solution
was so elegant. I didn't like the extra list in timerfd when it was
proposed some time ago, but with a rcu based list the list walk it's
less horrible than the original global lock, which was held over the
list iteration.

[ Fixed perf_event__names[] alignment which was nearby and hurting my eyes ... ]
Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Commit eac9eace "perf tools: Check we are able to read the event
size on mmap" brought a check to ensure we can read the size of the
event before dereferencing it, and do a remap otherwise to move the
buffer forward.

However that remap was ommitting all the necessary work to
update the new page offset, head, and to unmap previous pages,
etc...

To fix this, gather all the code that fetches the event in a
seperate helper which does all the necessary checks about the
header/event size and tells us anytime a remap is needed.

apm_mutex is locked by a process (e.g. apm -s) at the start of apm_ioctl() and
remains locked while pm_suspend() is called. Any subsequent process trying to
ACK the suspend (e.g. apmd) is then blocked at the start of apm_ioctl(),
causing the suspend to be delayed for 5 seconds in apm_suspend_notifier()
while the ACK times out. In short, ACKs don't work.

The driver's data structures are sufficiently protected by assorted locks. And
pm_suspend() has its own mutex to prevent reentrancy. Consequently there is no
obvious requirement for apm_mutex, which evolved from earlier BKL calls. So
let's remove it.

Before the conversion of the NMI watchdog to perf event, the
watchdog timeout was 5 seconds. Now it is 60 seconds. For my
particular application, netbooks, 5 seconds was a better
timeout. With a short timeout, we catch faults earlier and are
able to send back a panic. With a 60 second timeout, the user is
unlikely to wait and will instead hit the power button, causing
us to lose the panic info.

This change configures the NMI period to watchdog_thresh and
sets the softlockup_thresh to watchdog_thresh * 2. In addition,
watchdog_thresh was reduced to 10 seconds as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.

This restores the previous behavior of softlock_thresh.

Currently, setting watchdog_thresh to zero causes the watchdog
kthreads to consume a lot of CPU.

In addition, the logic of proc_dowatchdog_thresh and
proc_dowatchdog_enabled has been factored into proc_dowatchdog.

In get_sample_period(), softlockup_thresh is integer divided by
5 before the multiplication by NSEC_PER_SEC. This results in
softlockup_thresh being rounded down to the nearest integer
multiple of 5.

For example, a softlockup_thresh of 4 rounds down to 0.

Recent trivial fix corrected 'occured', but left 'reqest'.
codespell needs another dictionary entry.

This patch sorts the defs for the MT_CLS. I choose to split
generic classes and device specific ones to be able to add
more generic classes in the future.

It also put eGalax devices at their right place (alphabetically)
in mt_devices.
