Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load
x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu
symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu
segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee.
This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the
first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the
first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range.
This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered
when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located
beyond 2GB on it.
This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such
that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic
allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate. New
PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as
the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and
having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after
minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case
performance.
x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving.
Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the
embedding percpu allocator commit.

variables
Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module
percpu variables
This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk. When
setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number
of bytes right after the core static area which is available only
through a separate reserved allocator. This will be used primarily
for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited
relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside
the relocatable range.
If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and
isn't available for regular allocation. If the first chunk also
includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping
the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation. The first one
is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk.
Although they share the page map, their different area map
initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their
purposes.
If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled
like any other allocation.

Impact: argument semantic cleanup
In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant
auto-sizing. It's okay for @unit_size as 0 doesn't make sense but 0
dynamic reserve size is valid. Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated
from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and
malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted.
This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for
auto sizing.

Impact: more latitude for first percpu chunk allocation
The first percpu chunk serves the kernel static percpu area and may or
may not contain extra room for further dynamic allocation.
Initialization of the first chunk needs to be done before normal
memory allocation service is up, so it has its own init path -
pcpu_setup_static().
It seems archs need more latitude while initializing the first chunk
for example to take advantage of large page mapping. This patch makes
the following changes to allow this.
* Define PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE to give arch hint about how much space
to reserve in the first chunk for further dynamic allocation.
* Rename pcpu_setup_static() to pcpu_setup_first_chunk().
* Make pcpu_setup_first_chunk() much more flexible by fetching page
pointer by callback and adding optional @unit_size, @free_size and
@base_addr arguments which allow archs to selectively part of chunk
initialization to their likings.

Impact: cleaner and consistent bootmem wrapping
By setting CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE, archs can define
arch-specific wrappers for bootmem allocation. However, this is done
a bit strangely in that only the high level convenience macros can be
changed while lower level, but still exported, interface functions
can't be wrapped. This not only is messy but also leads to strange
situation where alloc_bootmem() does what the arch wants it to do but
the equivalent __alloc_bootmem() call doesn't although they should be
able to be used interchangeably.
This patch updates bootmem such that archs can override / wrap the
backend function - alloc_bootmem_core() instead of the highlevel
interface functions to allow simpler and consistent wrapping. Also,
HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM_NODE is renamed to HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM.

Implement scalable dynamic percpu allocator which can be used for both

Impact: allow multiple early vm areas
There are places where kernel VM area needs to be allocated before
vmalloc is initialized. This is done by allocating static vm_struct,
initializing several fields and linking it to vmlist and later vmalloc
initialization picking up these from vmlist. This is currently done
manually and if there's more than one such areas, there's no defined
way to arbitrate who gets which address.
This patch implements vm_area_register_early(), which takes vm_area
struct with flags and size initialized, assigns address to it and puts
it on the vmlist. This way, multiple early vm areas can determine
which addresses they should use. The only current user - alpha mm
init - is converted to use it.

Impact: kill unused functions
percpu_alloc() and its friends never saw much action. It was supposed
to replace the cpu-mask unaware __alloc_percpu() but it never happened
and in fact __percpu_alloc_mask() itself never really grew proper
up/down handling interface either (no exported interface for
populate/depopulate).
percpu allocation is about to go through major reimplementation and
there's no reason to carry this unused interface around. Replace it
with __alloc_percpu() and free_percpu().

Impact: Replaces inflate.c with a wrapper around zlib_inflate; new library code
This is the first part of the bzip2/lzma patch
The bzip patch is based on an idea by Christian Ludwig, includes support for
compressing the kernel with bzip2 or lzma rather than gzip. Both
compressors give smaller sizes than gzip. Lzma's decompresses faster
than bzip2.
It also supports ramdisks and initramfs' compressed using these two
compressors.
The functionality has been successfully used for a couple of years by
the udpcast project
This version applies to "tip" kernel 2.6.28
This part contains:
- changed inflate.c to accomodate rest of patch
- implementation of bzip2 compression (not used at this stage yet)
- implementation of lzma compression (not used at this stage yet)
- Makefile routines to support bzip2 and lzma kernel compression

This reverts commit 17581ad812a9abb0182260374ef2e52d4a808a64.
Sitsofe Wheeler reported that /dev/dri/card0 is MIA on his EeePC 900
and bisected it to this commit.
Graphics card is an i915 in an EeePC 900:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]:
Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML
Express Graphics Controller [8086:2592] (rev 04)
( Most likely the ioremap() of the driver failed and hence the card
did not initialize. )

Impact: standardize IO on cached ops
On modern CPUs it is almost always a bad idea to use non-temporal stores,
as the regression in this commit has shown it:
30d697f: x86: fix performance regression in write() syscall
The kernel simply has no good information about whether using non-temporal
stores is a good idea or not - and trying to add heuristics only increases
complexity and inserts fragility.
The regression on cached write()s took very long to be found - over two
years. So dont take any chances and let the hardware decide how it makes
use of its caches.
The only exception is drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c: there were we are
absolutely sure that another entity (the GPU) will pick up the dirty
data immediately and that the CPU will not touch that data before the
GPU will.
Also, keep the _nocache() primitives to make it easier for people to
experiment with these details. There may be more clear-cut cases where
non-cached copies can be used, outside of filemap.c.

Impact: cleanup, enable future change
Add a 'total bytes copied' parameter to __copy_from_user_*nocache(),
and update all the callsites.
The parameter is not used yet - architecture code can use it to
more intelligently decide whether the copy should be cached or
non-temporal.

Impact: cleanup
Remove an #ifdef from notify_page_fault(). The function still
compiles to nothing in the !CONFIG_KPROBES case.
Introduce kprobes_built_in() and kprobe_fault_handler() helpers
to allow this - they returns 0 if !CONFIG_KPROBES.

Impact: cleanup
Remove an #ifdef from kmmio_fault() - we can do this by
providing default implementations for is_kmmio_active()
and kmmio_handler(). The compiler optimizes it all away
in the !CONFIG_MMIOTRACE case.
Also, while at it, clean up mmiotrace.h a bit:
- standard header guards
- standard vertical spaces for structure definitions
No code changed (both with mmiotrace on and off in the config):
