reboot: disable usermodehelper to prevent fs access
In case CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH is not set to "", which it
should be on every system, the kernel forks processes during
shutdown, which try to access the rootfs, even when the
binary does not exist. It causes exceptions and long delays in
the disk driver, which gets read requests at the time it tries
to shut down the disk.
This patch disables all kernel-forked processes during reboot to
allow a clean poweroff.

Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information.
Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their
op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used.
This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command
outlined in the FADT table. Three protocols are used due to various
limitations over time, but all are included herein.
This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either
a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM

next_pidmap: fix overflow condition
next_pidmap() just quietly accepted whatever 'last' pid that was passed
in, which is not all that safe when one of the users is /proc.
Admittedly the proc code should do some sanity checking on the range
(and that will be the next commit), but that doesn't mean that the
helper functions should just do that pidmap pointer arithmetic without
checking the range of its arguments.
So clamp 'last' to PID_MAX_LIMIT. The fact that we then do "last+1"
doesn't really matter, the for-loop does check against the end of the
pidmap array properly (it's only the actual pointer arithmetic overflow
case we need to worry about, and going one bit beyond isn't going to
overflow).

powerpc/perf_event: Skip updating kernel counters if register value shrinks
Because of speculative event roll back, it is possible for some event coutners
to decrease between reads on POWER7. This causes a problem with the way that
counters are updated. Delta calues are calculated in a 64 bit value and the
top 32 bits are masked. If the register value has decreased, this leaves us
with a very large positive value added to the kernel counters. This patch
protects against this by skipping the update if the delta would be negative.
This can lead to a lack of precision in the coutner values, but from my testing
the value is typcially fewer than 10 samples at a time.

block: make unplug timer trace event correspond to the schedule() unplug
It's a pretty close match to what we had before - the timer triggering
would mean that nobody unplugged the plug in due time, in the new
scheme this matches very closely what the schedule() unplug now is.
It's essentially the difference between an explicit unplug (IO unplug)
or an implicit unplug (timer unplug, we scheduled with pending IO
queued).

block: let io_schedule() flush the plug inline
Linus correctly observes that the most important dispatch cases
are now done from kblockd, this isn't ideal for latency reasons.
The original reason for switching dispatches out-of-line was to
avoid too deep a stack, so by _only_ letting the "accidental"
flush directly in schedule() be guarded by offload to kblockd,
we should be able to get the best of both worlds.
So add a blk_schedule_flush_plug() that offloads to kblockd,
and only use that from the schedule() path.

Btrfs: avoid taking the chunk_mutex in do_chunk_alloc
Everytime we try to allocate disk space we try and see if we can pre-emptively
allocate a chunk, but in the common case we don't allocate anything, so there is
no sense in taking the chunk_mutex at all. So instead if we are allocating a
chunk, mark it in the space_info so we don't get two people trying to allocate
at the same time. Thanks,

Btrfs: don't force chunk allocation in find_free_extent
find_free_extent likes to allocate in contiguous clusters,
which makes writeback faster, especially on SSD storage. As
the FS fragments, these clusters become harder to find and we have
to decide between allocating a new chunk to make more clusters
or giving up on the cluster to allocate from the free space
we have.
Right now it creates too many chunks, and you can end up with
a whole FS that is mostly empty metadata chunks. This commit
changes the allocation code to be more strict and only
allocate new chunks when we've made good use of the chunks we

sgs->avg_load = (sgs->group_load * SCHED_LOAD_SCALE) / group->cpu_power;
This regression was caused by commit
e23bba6044 ("x86-64, NUMA: Unify
emulated distance mapping") because it changes cpu -> node
mapping in the process of dropping fake_physnodes().
old) all cpus are assinged node 0
now) cpus are assigned round robin
(the logic is implemented by numa_init_array())
Note: The change in behavior only happens if the system doesn't
have neither ACPI SRAT table nor AMD northbridge NUMA
information.
Round robin assignment doesn't work because init_numa_sched_groups_power()
assumes all logical cpus in the same physical cpu share the same node
(then it only accounts for group_first_cpu()), and the simple round robin
breaks the above assumption.
Thus, this patch implements a reassignment of node-ids if buggy firmware
or numa emulation makes wrong cpu node map. Tt enforce all logical cpus
in the same physical cpu share the same node.
