Re-introduce rmap verification patches that Hugh removed when he removed
PG_map_lock. PG_map_lock actually isn't needed to synchronise access to
anonymous pages, because PG_locked and PTL together already do.
These checks were important in discovering and fixing a rare rmap corruption
in SLES9.

It is a known fact that freezeable multithreaded workqueues doesn't like
CPU_DEAD. We keep them only for the incoming CPU-hotplug rework.
Sadly, we can't just kill create_freezeable_workqueue() right now, make
them singlethread.

All architectures that have an implementation of smp_call_function_single
let it return -EBUSY if it is asked to execute func on the current cpu.
(akpm: except for x86_64). Therefore the UP version must always return

Strip __cpuinit[data] from Node <-> PXM routines and supporting data
structures. Also make pxm_to_node_map and node_to_pxm_map local to the
numa acpi module.
This fixes a bug triggered by the following conditions:
- boot on a machine with a SLIT table defined
- kernel is configured w/ CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
- cat /sys/devices/system/node/node*/distance
This will cause an oops by calling into a freed memory section.
In particular, on x86_64, __node_distance calls node_to_pxm().

Currently we have a maze of configuration variables that determine the
maximum slab size. Worst of all it seems to vary between SLAB and SLUB.
So define a common maximum size for kmalloc. For conveniences sake we use
the maximum size ever supported which is 32 MB. We limit the maximum size
to a lower limit if MAX_ORDER does not allow such large allocations.
For many architectures this patch will have the effect of adding large
kmalloc sizes. x86_64 adds 5 new kmalloc sizes. So a small amount of
memory will be needed for these caches (contemporary SLAB has dynamically
sizeable node and cpu structure so the waste is less than in the past)
Most architectures will then be able to allocate object with sizes up to
MAX_ORDER. We have had repeated breakage (in fact whenever we doubled the
number of supported processors) on IA64 because one or the other struct
grew beyond what the slab allocators supported. This will avoid future
issues and f.e. avoid fixes for 2k and 4k cpu support.
CONFIG_LARGE_ALLOCS is no longer necessary so drop it.
It fixes sparc64 with SLAB.

I'm getting zillions of undefined references to __kmalloc_size_too_large on
alpha. For some reason alpha is building out-of-line copies of kmalloc_slab()
into lots of compilation units.
It turns out that gcc just isn't smart enough to work out that
__builtin_contant_p(size)==true implies that __builtin_contant_p(index)==true.
So let's give it a bit of help.

There is no user of destructors left. There is no reason why we should keep
checking for destructors calls in the slab allocators.
The RFC for this patch was discussed at
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=117882364330705&w=2
Destructors were mainly used for list management which required them to take a
spinlock. Taking a spinlock in a destructor is a bit risky since the slab
allocators may run the destructors anytime they decide a slab is no longer
needed.
Patch drops destructor support. Any attempt to use a destructor will BUG().

This patch fixes a bug whereby AC97 bus device data was being clobbered
when AC97 codecs using the generic ac97_codec.c driver were being
registered. Codecs that didn't use the generic driver were unaffected
(e.g. WM9712, WM9713).
Changes:-
o Add new AC97 codec class for custom (or need bus dev registration)
AC97 codecs.
o Only register/deregister this custom codec device with the AC97 bus.
The generic AC97 driver already does this for generic codec devices.
This may be related to bug #3038 :-

Our assumption that most distros issue STANDBYNOW seems wrong. The
upstream sysvinit and thus many distros including gentoo and opensuse
don't take any action for libata disks on spindown. We can skip

anything to take advantage of kernel-side shutdown.

Whether a controller needs IDE or SATA ACPI hierarchy is determined by
the programming interface of the controller not by whether the
controller is SATA or PATA, or it supports slave device or not. This
patch adds ATA_FLAG_ACPI_SATA port flags which tells libata-acpi that
the port needs SATA ACPI nodes, and sets the flag for ahci and
sata_sil24.

Device might be resized during ata_dev_configure() due to HPA or
(later) ACPI _GTF. Currently it's worked around by caching n_sectors
before turning off HPA. The cached original size is overwritten if
the device is reconfigured without being hardreset - which always
happens after configuring trasnfer mode. If the device gets hardreset
for some reason after that, revalidation fails with -ENODEV.
This patch makes size checking more robust by moving n_sectors check
from ata_dev_reread_id() to ata_dev_revalidate() after the device is
fully configured. No matter what happens during configuration, a
device must have the same n_sectors after fully configured to be
treated as the same device.

Hypervisor interfaces need to be negotiated in order to use
some API calls reliably. So add a small set of interfaces
to request API versions and query current settings.
This allows us to fix some bugs in the hypervisor console:
1) If we can negotiate API group CORE of at least major 1
minor 1 we can use con_read and con_write which can improve
console performance quite a bit.
2) When we do a console write request, we should hold the
spinlock around the whole request, not a byte at a time.
What would happen is that it's easy for output from
different cpus to get mixed with each other.
3) Use consistent udelay() based polling, udelay(1) each
loop with a limit of 1000 polls to handle stuck hypervisor
console.

and as all users of ide_use_dma() were converted to use ide_tune_dma()
