This allows co-waking producer/consumer task pairs to run ahead of the pack for a little while, keeping their cache warm. Without this, we would interleave all pairs, utterly trashing the cache. This patch introduces a backward looking buddy, that is, suppose that in the above scenario, the consumer preempts the producer before it can go to sleep, we will therefore miss the wakeup from consumer to producer (its already running, after all), breaking the cycle and reverting to the cache-trashing interleaved schedule pattern. The backward buddy will try to schedule back to the task that woke us up in case the forward buddy is not available, under the assumption that the last task will be the one with the most cache hot task around barring current. This will basically allow a task to continue after it got preempted. In order to avoid starvation, we allow either buddy to get wakeup_gran ahead of the pack.

On x86, x2apic mode register accesses for sending IPI's don't have serializing semantics. So the need for smp_mb() before sending the IPI becomes more critical in x2apic mode. Remove the unnecessary smp_mb() in csd_flag_wait(), as the presence of that smp_mb() doesn't mean anything on the sender, when the ipi receiver is not doing any thing special (like memory fence) after clearing the CSD_FLAG_WAIT.

Eventually, we want to head towards an undefined 'struct cpumask' so they can never be declared on stack. 1) New cpumask functions which take pointers instead of copies. (cpus_* -> cpumask_*) 2) Several new helpers to reduce requirements for temporary cpumasks (cpumask_first_and, cpumask_next_and, cpumask_any_and) 3) Helpers for declaring cpumasks on or offstack for large NR_CPUS (cpumask_var_t, alloc_cpumask_var and free_cpumask_var) 4) 'struct cpumask' for explicitness and to mark new-style code. 5) Make iterator functions stop at nr_cpu_ids (a runtime constant), not NR_CPUS for time efficiency and for smaller dynamic allocations in future. 6) cpumask_copy() so we can allocate less than a full cpumask eventually (for alloc_cpumask_var), and so we can eliminate the 'struct cpumask' definition eventually. 7) work_on_cpu() helper for doing task on a CPU, rather than saving old cpumask for current thread and manipulating it. 8) smp_call_function_many() which is smp_call_function_mask() except taking a cpumask pointer. Note that this patch simply introduces the new functions and leaves the obsolescent ones in place. This is to simplify the transition patches.

A timestamp is taken, a test is preformed and if it detects that an interrupt occurred that did tracing, it tries again. The problem arises if the timestamp code itself causes a trace. The detection will detect this and loop again. The difference between this and an interrupt doing tracing, is that this will fail every time, and cause an infinite loop. Currently, we test if the loop happens 1000 times, and if so, it will produce a warning and disable the ring buffer. The problem with this approach is that it makes it difficult to perform some types of tracing (tracing the timestamp code itself). Each trace entry has a delta timestamp from the previous entry. If a trace entry is reserved but and interrupt occurs and traces before the previous entry is commited, the delta timestamp for that entry will be zero. This actually makes sense in terms of tracing, because the interrupt entry happened before the preempted entry was commited, so one may consider the two happening at the same time. The order is still preserved in the buffer. With this idea, instead of trying to get a new timestamp if an interrupt made it in between the timestamp and the test, the entry could simply make the delta zero and continue. This will prevent interrupts or tracers in the timer code from causing the above loop.

This means we can race with the parent doing release_task(), we can't just check ->signal != NULL.
