2009-04-07mm, x86, ptrace, bts: defer branch trace stoppingMarkus Metzger
When a ptraced task is unlinked, we need to stop branch tracing for that task. Since the unlink is called with interrupts disabled, and we need interrupts enabled to stop branch tracing, we defer the work. Collect all branch tracing related stuff in a branch tracing context.

2009-04-07sched, hw-branch-tracer: add wait_task_context_switch() function to sched.hMarkus Metzger
Add a function to wait until some other task has been switched out at least once. This differs from wait_task_inactive() subtly, in that the latter will wait until the task has left the CPU.

2009-04-07x86, bts: fix race when bts tracer is removedMarkus Metzger
When the bts tracer is removed while the traced task is running, the write to clear the bts tracer pointer races with context switch code. Read the tracer once during a context switch. When a new tracer is installed, the bts tracer is set in the ds context before the tracer is initialized in order to claim the context for that tracer. This may result in write accesses using an uninitialized trace configuration when scheduling timestamps have been requested. Store active tracing flags separately and only set active flags after the tracing configuration has been initialized.

Due to an apparent typo, commit a67d18f89f5782806135aad4ee012ff78d45aae7 (NFS: load the rpc/rdma transport module automatically) lead to the 'proto=' mount option doing a double free, while Opt_mountproto leaks a string.

2009-04-06ext3: make default data ordering mode configurableLinus Torvalds
This makes the defautl ext3 data ordering mode (when no explicit ordering is set) configurable, so as to allow people to default to 'data=writeback' and get the resulting latency improvements. This is a non-issue if a filesystem has been explicitly set to some ordering (with 'tune2fs'). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
