Currently you must be root to set idle io prio class on a process. This
is due to the fact that the idle class is implemented as a true idle
class, meaning that it will not make progress if someone else is
requesting disk access. Unfortunately this means that it opens DOS
opportunities by locking down file system resources, hence it is root
only at the moment.
This patch relaxes the idle class a little, by removing the truly idle
part (which entals a grace period with associated timer). The
modifications make the idle class as close to zero impact as can be done
while still guarenteeing progress. This means we can relax the root only
criteria as well.

changes to anticipatory io scheduler for io_context sharing
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

The io context sharing introduced a per-ioc spinlock, that would protect
the cfq io context lookup. That is a regression from the original, since
we never needed any locking there because the ioc/cic were process private.
The cic lookup is changed from an rbtree construct to a radix tree, which
we can then use RCU to make the reader side lockless. That is the performance
critical path, modifying the radix tree is only done on process creation
(when that process first does IO, actually) and on process exit (if that
process has done IO).
As it so happens, radix trees are also much faster for this type of
lookup where the key is a pointer. It's a very sparse tree.

Zero-bytes transfers would leave the bus transaction unfinished
(no i2c stop is sent), with the following transfer actually
sending the slave address to the previously addressed device,
resulting in weird device failures (e.g. reset minute register
values in my RTC).
This patch instructs the controller to send an I2C STOP right after
the slave address in case of a zero-byte transfer.

This goes on top of the patch removing most i2c_adapter.clients usage,
updating i2c_attach_client:
- Don't call device_register() while holding clist_lock. This
removes a self-deadlock when on the i2c_driver.probe() path,
for drivers that need to attach new devices (e.g. dummies).
- Remove a redundant address check. The driver model core does
this as a consequence of guaranteeing unique names.
- Move the "device registered" diagnostic so that it never lies;
previously, on error paths it would falsely report success.

The redundant i2c client list maintained by i2c-core is going away
soon, so drivers should stop using it now. Instead, they can use the
standard iterator provided by the device driver model
(device_for_each_child).

The i2c_adapter.clients list of i2c_client nodes duplicates driver
model state. This patch starts removing that list, letting us remove
most existing users of those i2c-core lists.
* The core I2C code now iterates over the driver model's list instead
of the i2c-internal one in some places where it's safe:
- Passing a command/ioctl to each client, a mechanims
used almost exclusively by DVB adapters;
- Device address checking, in both i2c-core and i2c-dev.
* Provide i2c_verify_client() to use with driver model iterators.
* Flag the relevant i2c_adapter and i2c_client fields as deprecated,
to help prevent new users from appearing.
For the moment the list needs to stick around, since some issues show
up when deleting devices created by legacy I2C drivers. (They don't
follow standard driver model rules. Removing those devices can cause
self-deadlocks.)

The i2c-amd756 and i2c-viapro drivers make use of the driver_data
field of the PCI device ID. When adding device IDs dynamically (by
writing to the new_id sysfs file) you cannot set the value of this
field by default. It has to be allowed explicitly. Do that, and
check the value so that the user can't crash the kernel accidentally.

I2C block read is supported since the ICH5. I couldn't get it to work
using the block buffer, so it's using the old-style byte-by-byte mode
for now.

really written by Mark Studebaker, even though he based his work on
the i2c-piix4 driver which was written by Philip Edelbrock.
