Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform

section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in
vmlinux.lds, not by module loader.
To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or
using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group
".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu"
for modules.
Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.

match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure
that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or
forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer.
There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently
can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious.
The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently
truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See
compat_sys_mount() and do_mount().
The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from
name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX.
We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as
I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096.
Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It
doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

Prior to 2.6.26 fuse only supported single page write requests. In theory all
fuse filesystem should be able support bigger than 4k writes, as there's
nothing in the API to prevent it. Unfortunately there's a known case in
NTFS-3G where big writes cause filesystem corruption. There could also be
other filesystems, where the lack of testing with big write requests would
result in bugs.
To prevent such problems on a kernel upgrade, disable big writes by default,
but let filesystems set a flag to turn it on.

Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes
PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is
obviously not the point of it at all).
Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier,
so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is
ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the
meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing
the wrong thing.

We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info,
since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly.
So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the
thread info accessor functions directly. This generally avoids one
level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that
also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count).

It acts exactly like a regular 'cond_resched()', but will not get
optimized away when CONFIG_PREEMPT is set.
Normal kernel code is already preemptable in the presense of
CONFIG_PREEMPT, so cond_resched() is optimized away (see commit
02b67cc3ba "sched: do not do
cond_resched() when CONFIG_PREEMPT").
But when wanting to conditionally reschedule while holding a lock, you
need to use "cond_sched_lock(lock)", and the new function is the BKL
equivalent of that.
Also make fs/locks.c use it.

As the old driver_name/type matching scheme is going away soon, change
the dummy device mechanism to use the new matching scheme.
This has the downside that dummy i2c clients can no longer choose
their name, they'll all appear as "dummy" in sysfs and in log
messages. I don't think it is a problem in practice though, as there
is little reason to use these i2c clients to log messages.

The generic semaphore rewrite had a huge performance regression on AIM7
(and potentially other BKL-heavy benchmarks) because the generic
semaphores had been rewritten to be simple to understand and fair. The
latter, in particular, turns a semaphore-based BKL implementation into a
mess of scheduling.
The attempt to fix the performance regression failed miserably (see the
previous commit 00b41ec261 'Revert
"semaphore: fix"'), and so for now the simple and sane approach is to
instead just go back to the old spinlock-based BKL implementation that
never had any issues like this.
This patch also has the advantage of being reported to fix the
regression completely according to Yanmin Zhang, unlike the semaphore
hack which still left a couple percentage point regression.
As a spinlock, the BKL obviously has the potential to be a latency
issue, but it's not really any different from any other spinlock in that
respect. We do want to get rid of the BKL asap, but that has been the
plan for several years.
These days, the biggest users are in the tty layer (open/release in
particular) and Alan holds out some hope:
"tty release is probably a few months away from getting cured - I'm
afraid it will almost certainly be the very last user of the BKL in
tty to get fixed as it depends on everything else being sanely locked."
so while we're not there yet, we do have a plan of action.
