Don Mullis 835cc0c847 lib: more scalable list_sort()
XFS and UBIFS can pass long lists to list_sort(); this alternative
implementation scales better, reaching ~3x performance gain when list
length exceeds the L2 cache size.

Stand-alone program timings were run on a Core 2 duo L1=32KB L2=4MB,
gcc-4.4, with flags extracted from an Ubuntu kernel build.  Object size is
581 bytes compared to 455 for Mark J.  Roberts' code.

Worst case for either implementation is a list length just over a power of
two, and to roughly the same degree, so here are timing results for a
range of 2^N+1 lengths.  List elements were 16 bytes each including malloc
overhead; initial order was random.

Mark's code does not actually implement the usual or generic mergesort,
but rather a variant from Simon Tatham described here:

    http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/algorithms/listsort.html

Simon's algorithm performs O(log N) passes over the entire input list,
doing merges of sublists that double in size on each pass.  The generic
algorithm instead merges pairs of equal length lists as early as possible,
in recursive order.  For either algorithm, the elements that extend the
list beyond power-of-two length are a special case, handled as nearly as
possible as a "rounding-up" to a full POT.

Some intuition for the locality of reference implications of merge order
may be gotten by watching this animation:

    http://www.sorting-algorithms.com/merge-sort

Simon's algorithm requires only O(1) extra space rather than the generic
algorithm's O(log N), but in my non-recursive implementation the actual
O(log N) data is merely a vector of ~20 pointers, which I've put on the
stack.

Long-running list_sort() calls: If the list passed in may be long, or the
client's cmp() callback function is slow, the client's cmp() may
periodically invoke cond_resched() to voluntarily yield the CPU.  All
inner loops of list_sort() call back to cmp().

Stability of the sort: distinct elements that compare equal emerge from
the sort in the same order as with Mark's code, for simple test cases.  A
boot-time test is provided to verify this and other correctness
requirements.

A kernel that uses drm.ko appears to run normally with this change; I have
no suitable hardware to similarly test the use by UBIFS.

Simon Kagstrom 0347af4ee3 lkdtm: add debugfs access and loosen KPROBE ties
Add adds a debugfs interface and additional failure modes to LKDTM to
provide similar functionality to the provoke-crash driver submitted here:

  http://lwn.net/Articles/371208/

Crashes can now be induced either through module parameters (as before)
or through the debugfs interface as in provoke-crash.

The patch also provides a new "direct" interface, where KPROBES are not
used, i.e., the crash is invoked directly upon write to the debugfs
file. When built without KPROBES configured, only this mode is available.

The x86-64 implementation of the atomics is totally different from the
i586+ implementation, which makes it quite confusing to call it
"586+".  Also fix indentation, and add "i" for "i386" and "i586" as
used elsewhere in the kernel.

Fixing command-list.txt requires document

But perf lock is too much "under construction" to write a
stable document, so this is something like pseudo document for now.

And I wrote description of perf lock at help section of

Paul E. McKenney 632ee20013 rcu: Introduce lockdep-based checking to RCU read-side primitives
Inspection is proving insufficient to catch all RCU misuses,
which is understandable given that rcu_dereference() might be
protected by any of four different flavors of RCU (RCU, RCU-bh,
RCU-sched, and SRCU), and might also/instead be protected by any
of a number of locking primitives. It is therefore time to
enlist the aid of lockdep.

This set of patches is inspired by earlier work by Peter
Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner, and takes the following approach:

o	Set up separate lockdep classes for RCU, RCU-bh, and RCU-sched.

o	Set up separate lockdep classes for each instance of SRCU.

o	Create primitives that check for being in an RCU read-side
	critical section.  These return exact answers if lockdep is
	fully enabled, but if unsure, report being in an RCU read-side
	critical section.  (We want to avoid false positives!)
	The primitives are:

The existing rcu_dereference() primitive does no checking, but
upcoming patches will change that.

Tejun Heo d2e7276b6b idr: fix a critical misallocation bug, take#2
This is retry of reverted 859ddf0974
("idr: fix a critical misallocation bug") which contained two bugs.

* pa[idp->layers] should be cleared even if it's not used by
  sub_alloc() because it's used by mark idr_mark_full().

* The original condition check also assigned pa[l] to p which the new
  code didn't do thus leaving p pointing at the wrong layer.

Both problems have been fixed and the idr code has received good amount
testing using userland testing setup where simple bitmap allocator is
run parallel to verify the result of idr allocation.

The bug this patch fixes is caused by sub_alloc() optimization path
bypassing out-of-room condition check and restarting allocation loop
with starting value higher than maximum allowed value.  For detailed
description, please read commit message of 859ddf09.

Tejun Heo 859ddf0974 idr: fix a critical misallocation bug
Eric Paris located a bug in idr.  With IDR_BITS of 6, it grows to three
layers when id 4096 is first allocated.  When that happens, idr wraps
incorrectly and searches the idr array ignoring the high bits.  The
following test code from Eric demonstrates the bug nicely.

#include <linux/idr.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/module.h>

static DEFINE_IDR(test_idr);

int init_module(void)
{
	int ret, forty95, forty96;
	void *addr;

	/* add 2 entries both with 4095 as the start address */
again1:
	if (!idr_pre_get(&test_idr, GFP_KERNEL))
		return -ENOMEM;
	ret = idr_get_new_above(&test_idr, (void *)4095, 4095, &forty95);
	if (ret) {
		if (ret == -EAGAIN)
			goto again1;
		return ret;
	}
	if (forty95 != 4095)
		printk(KERN_ERR "hmmm, forty95=%d\n", forty95);

again2:
	if (!idr_pre_get(&test_idr, GFP_KERNEL))
		return -ENOMEM;
	ret = idr_get_new_above(&test_idr, (void *)4096, 4095, &forty96);
	if (ret) {
		if (ret == -EAGAIN)
			goto again2;
		return ret;
	}
	if (forty96 != 4096)
		printk(KERN_ERR "hmmm, forty96=%d\n", forty96);

	/* try to find the 2 entries, noticing that 4096 broke */
	addr = idr_find(&test_idr, forty95);
	if ((int)addr != forty95)
		printk(KERN_ERR "hmmm, after find forty95=%d addr=%d\n", forty95, (int)addr);
	addr = idr_find(&test_idr, forty96);
	if ((int)addr != forty96)
		printk(KERN_ERR "hmmm, after find forty96=%d addr=%d\n", forty96, (int)addr);
	/* really weird, the entry which should be at 4096 is actually at 0!! */
	addr = idr_find(&test_idr, 0);
	if ((int)addr)
		printk(KERN_ERR "found an entry at id=0 for addr=%d\n", (int)addr);

	idr_remove(&test_idr, forty95);
	idr_remove(&test_idr, forty96);

	return 0;

MODULE_AUTHOR("Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>");
MODULE_DESCRIPTION("Simple idr test");
MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");

This happens because when sub_alloc() back tracks it doesn't always do it
step-by-step while the over-the-limit detection assumes step-by-step
backtracking.  The logic in sub_alloc() looks like the following.

  restart:
    clear pa[top level + 1] for end cond detection
    l = top level
    while (true) {
	search for empty slot at this level
	if (not found) {
	    push id to the next possible value
	    l++
A:	    if (pa[l] is clear)
	        failed, return asking caller to grow the tree
	    if (going up 1 level gives more slots to search)
	        continue the while loop above with the incremented l
	    else
C:	        goto restart
	}
	adjust id accordingly to the found slot
	if (l == 0)
	    return found id;
	create lower level if not there yet
	record pa[l] and l--
    }

Test A is the fail exit condition but this assumes that failure is
propagated upwared one level at a time but the B optimization path breaks
the assumption and restarts the whole thing with a start value which is
above the possible limit with the current layers.  sub_alloc() assumes the
start id value is inside the limit when called and test A is the only exit
condition check, so it ends up searching for empty slot while ignoring
high set bit.

So, for 4095->4096 test, level0 search fails but pa[1] contains a valid
pointer.  However, going up 1 level wouldn't give any more empty slot so
it takes C and when the whole thing restarts nobody notices the high bit
set beyond the top level.

This patch fixes the bug by changing the fail exit condition check to full
id limit check.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 6846ee5ca6 zlib: Fix build of powerpc boot wrapper
Commit ac4c2a3bbe broke the build
of all powerpc boot wrappers.

It attempts to add an include of autoconf.h but used the wrong
path for it. It also adds -D__KERNEL__ to our boot wrapper, both
things that we pretty much didn't do on purpose so far.

We want our boot wrapper to remain independent enough of the kernel
for various reasons, one of them being that you can "wrap" an existing
kernel at distro install time which allows to ship one kernel image
and a set of boot wrappers for different platforms, the wrappers
don't have to be built out of the same kernel build tree.

It's also incorrect to do what the patch does in our boot environment
since we may not have a proper alignment exception handler which means
we may not be able to fixup the few cases where an unaligned access will
need SW emulation (depends on the core variant, could be when crossing
page or segment boundaries for example).

This patch fixes it by putting the old code back in and using the
new "fancy" variant only when CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
is set, which happens not to be set on powerpc since we don't include
autoconf.h. It also reverts the changes to our boot wrapper Makefile.

This means that x86 should, afaik, keep the optimisations since its
boot wrapper does include autoconf.h and define __KERNEL__ (though I
doubt they make that much different outside of slow embedded processors).

Albin Tonnerre 7dd65feb6c lib: add support for LZO-compressed kernels
This patch series adds generic support for creating and extracting
LZO-compressed kernel images, as well as support for using such images on
the x86 and ARM architectures, and support for creating and using
LZO-compressed initrd and initramfs images.

Russell King said:

: Testing on a Cortex A9 model:
: - lzo decompressor is 65% of the time gzip takes to decompress a kernel
: - lzo kernel is 9% larger than a gzip kernel
:
: which I'm happy to say confirms your figures when comparing the two.
:
: However, when comparing your new gzip code to the old gzip code:
: - new is 99% of the size of the old code
: - new takes 42% of the time to decompress than the old code
:
: What this means is that for a proper comparison, the results get even better:
: - lzo is 7.5% larger than the old gzip'd kernel image
: - lzo takes 28% of the time that the old gzip code took
:
: So the expense seems definitely worth the effort.  The only reason I
: can think of ever using gzip would be if you needed the additional
: compression (eg, because you have limited flash to store the image.)
:
: I would argue that the default for ARM should therefore be LZO.

This patch:

The lzo compressor is worse than gzip at compression, but faster at
extraction.  Here are some figures for an ARM board I'm working on:

Uncompressed size: 3.24Mo
gzip  1.61Mo 0.72s
lzo   1.75Mo 0.48s

So for a compression ratio that is still relatively close to gzip, it's
much faster to extract, at least in that case.

This part contains:
 - Makefile routine to support lzo compression
 - Fixes to the existing lzo compressor so that it can be used in
   compressed kernels
 - wrapper around the existing lzo1x_decompress, as it only extracts one
   block at a time, while we need to extract a whole file here
 - config dialog for kernel compression

JFFS2 uses lesser compression ratio and inflate always ends up in "copy

This patch tries to optimize the direct copy procedure.  Uses
get_unaligned() but only in one place.

The copy loop just above this one can also use this optimization, but I
havn't done so as I have not tested if it is a win there too.

On my MPC8321 this is about 17% faster on my JFFS2 root FS than the
original.

Ingo Molnar a8fe9ea200 dma-debug: Fix bug causing build warning
Stephen Rothwell reported the following build warning:

 lib/dma-debug.c: In function 'dma_debug_device_change':
 lib/dma-debug.c:680: warning: 'return' with no value, in function returning non-void

Introduced by commit f797d9881b
("dma-debug: Do not add notifier when dma debugging is disabled").

Return 0 [notify-done] when disabled. (this is standard bus notifier behavior.)

Akinobu Mita 39d997b514 x86, core: Optimize hweight32()
Optimize hweight32 by using the same technique in hweight64.

The proof of this technique can be found in the commit log for
f9b4192923 ("bitops: hweight()
speedup").

The userspace benchmark on x86_32 showed 20% speedup with
bitmap_weight() which uses hweight32 to count bits for each
unsigned long on 32bit architectures.

 int main(void)
 {
	#define SZ (1024 * 1024 * 512)

	static DECLARE_BITMAP(bitmap, SZ) = {
	        [0 ... 100] = 1,
	};

	return bitmap_weight(bitmap, SZ);
 }

Shaun Ruffell f797d9881b dma-debug: Do not add notifier when dma debugging is disabled.
If CONFIG_HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG is defined and "dma_debug=off" is
specified on the kernel command line, when you detach a driver from a
device you can cause the following NULL pointer dereference:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
IP: [<c0580d35>] dma_debug_device_change+0x5d/0x117

The problem is that the dma_debug_device_change notifier function is
added to the bus notifier chain even though the dma_entry_hash array
was never initialized.  If dma debugging is disabled, this patch both
prevents dma_debug_device_change notifiers from being added to the
chain, and additionally ensures that the dma_debug_device_change
notifier function is a no-op.

3. Use bitmap_find_next_zero_area instead of find_next_zero_area

  doesn't check the last bit of the limit in bitmap

Akinobu Mita c1a2a962a2 bitmap: introduce bitmap_set, bitmap_clear, bitmap_find_next_zero_area
This introduces new bitmap functions:

bitmap_set: Set specified bit area
bitmap_clear: Clear specified bit area
bitmap_find_next_zero_area: Find free bit area

These are mostly stolen from iommu helper. The differences are:

- Use find_next_bit instead of doing test_bit for each bit

- Rewrite bitmap_set and bitmap_clear

  Instead of setting or clearing for each bit.

- Check the last bit of the limit

  iommu-helper doesn't want to find such area

- The return value if there is no zero area

  find_next_zero_area in iommu helper: returns -1
  bitmap_find_next_zero_area: return >= bitmap size

KOSAKI Motohiro ca54cb8c9e Subject: Re: [PATCH] strstrip incorrectly marked __must_check
Recently, We marked strstrip() as must_check.  because it was frequently
misused and it should be checked.  However, we found one exception.
scsi/ipr.c intentionally ignore return value of strstrip.  Because it
wishes to keep the whitespace at the beginning.

Thus we need to keep with and without checked whitespace trim function.
This patch adds a new strim() and changes ipr.c to use it.

André Goddard Rosa e7d2860b69 tree-wide: convert open calls to remove spaces to skip_spaces() lib function
Makes use of skip_spaces() defined in lib/string.c for removing leading
spaces from strings all over the tree.

It decreases lib.a code size by 47 bytes and reuses the function tree-wide:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  64688     584     592   65864   10148 (TOTALS-BEFORE)
  64641     584     592   65817   10119 (TOTALS-AFTER)

Also, while at it, if we see (*str && isspace(*str)), we can be sure to
remove the first condition (*str) as the second one (isspace(*str)) also
evaluates to 0 whenever *str == 0, making it redundant. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space".

Julia Lawall tried the semantic patch (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr) below,
and found occurrences of this pattern on 3 more files:

André Goddard Rosa f653398c86 string: factorize skip_spaces and export it to be generally available
On the following sentence:
    while (*s && isspace(*s))
        s++;

If *s == 0, isspace() evaluates to ((_ctype[*s] & 0x20) != 0), which
evaluates to ((0x08 & 0x20) != 0) which equals to 0 as well.
If *s == 1, we depend on isspace() result anyway. In other words,
"a char equals zero is never a space", so remove this check.

Also, *s != 0 is most common case (non-null string).

Fixed const return as noticed by Jan Engelhardt and James Bottomley.

André Goddard Rosa 922ac25c9f vsprintf: reuse almost identical simple_strtoulX() functions
The difference between simple_strtoul() and simple_strtoull() is just
the size of the variable used to keep track of the sum of characters
converted to numbers:

unsigned long simple_strtoul() {...}
unsigned long long simple_strtoull(){...}

Both are same size on my Core 2/gcc 4.4.1.
Overflow condition is not checked on both functions, so an extremely large
string can break these functions so that they don't even notice it.

As we do not care for overflowing on these functions, always keep the sum
using the larger variable around (unsigned long long) on simple_strtoull()
and cast it to (unsigned long) on simple_strtoul(), which then becomes
just a wrapper around simple_strtoull().

Code size decreases by 304 bytes:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename

André Goddard Rosa 0f4f81dce9 vsprintf: factorize "(null)" string
This patchset reduces lib/lib.a code size by 482 bytes on my Core 2 with
gcc 4.4.1 even considering that it exports a newly defined function
skip_spaces() to drivers:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  64867     840     592   66299   102fb (TOTALS-lib.a-BEFORE)
  64641     584     592   65817   10119 (TOTALS-lib.a-AFTER)
and implements some code tidy up.

Besides reducing lib.a size, it converts many in-tree drivers to use the
newly defined function, which makes another small reduction on kernel size
overall when those drivers are used.

This patch:

Change "<NULL>" to "(null)", unifying 3 equal strings.
glibc also uses "(null)" for the same purpose.

It decreases code size by 7 bytes:
 text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
15765       0       8   15773    3d9d vsprintf.o (ex lib/lib.a-BEFORE)

Amerigo Wang 29671f22a8 rwsem: fix rwsem_is_locked() bugs
rwsem_is_locked() tests ->activity without locks, so we should always keep
->activity consistent.  However, the code in __rwsem_do_wake() breaks this
rule, it updates ->activity after _all_ readers waken up, this may give
some reader a wrong ->activity value, thus cause rwsem_is_locked() behaves
wrong.

Quote from Andrew:

"
- we have one or more processes sleeping in down_read(), waiting for access.

- we wake one or more processes up without altering ->activity

- they start to run and they do rwsem_is_locked().  This incorrectly
  returns "false", because the waker process is still crunching away in
  __rwsem_do_wake().

- the waker now alters ->activity, but it was too late.
"

So we need get a spinlock to protect this.  And rwsem_is_locked() should
not block, thus we use spin_trylock_irqsave().

The name space hierarchy for the internal lock functions is now a bit
backwards. raw_spin* functions map to _spin* which use __spin*, while
we would like to have _raw_spin* and __raw_spin*.

_raw_spin* is already used by lock debugging, so rename those funtions
to do_raw_spin* to free up the _raw_spin* name space.

The raw_spin* namespace was taken by lockdep for the architecture
specific implementations. raw_spin_* would be the ideal name space for

Linus suggested to convert the raw_ to arch_ locks and cleanup the
name space instead of using an artifical name like core_spin,
atomic_spin or whatever

Add a flag to let a platform ioremap memory regions marked as reserved.

This flag will be used later by the Nintendo Wii support code to allow
ioremapping the I/O region sitting between MEM1 and MEM2 and marked
as reserved RAM in the patch "wii: use both mem1 and mem2 as ram".

This will no longer be needed when proper discontig memory support
for 32-bit PowerPC is added to the kernel.

Linus Torvalds f01eb36403 [BKL] add 'might_sleep()' to the outermost lock taker
As shown by the previous patch (6698e3472: "tty: Fix BKL taken under a
spinlock bug introduced in the BKL split") the BKL removal is prone to
some subtle issues, where removing the BKL in one place may in fact make
a previously nested BKL call the new outer call, and then prone to nasty
deadlocks with other spinlocks.

In general, we should never take the BKL while we're holding a spinlock,
so let's just add a "might_sleep()" to it (even though the BKL doesn't
technically sleep - at least not yet), and we'll get nice warnings the
next time this kind of problem happens during BKL removal.

Paul E. McKenney 8bfb2f8e65 rcu: Make RCU's CPU-stall detector be default
The RCU_CPU_STALL_DETECTOR costs almost nothing and has located
some bugs that might otherwise have been difficult to track
down.  Make it be default for the TREE RCU implementations.

The vmlinux size impact is limited (on 64-bit x86 defconfig):

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   8440248	1260076	 995588	10695912	 a334e8	vmlinux.before
   8440774	1260060	 995588	10696422	 a336e6	vmlinux.after

+526 bytes - acceptable default cost.

For RAM starved systems, TINY_RCU does not support CPU-stall detection
and is much smaller, but then again it is a uniprocessor...

David Howells b34df792b4 FS-Cache: Use radix tree preload correctly in tracking of pages to be stored
__fscache_write_page() attempts to load the radix tree preallocation pool for
the CPU it is on before calling radix_tree_insert(), as the insertion must be
done inside a pair of spinlocks.

Use of the preallocation pool, however, is contingent on the radix tree being
initialised without __GFP_WAIT specified.  __fscache_acquire_cookie() was
passing GFP_NOFS to INIT_RADIX_TREE() - but that includes __GFP_WAIT.

The solution is to AND out __GFP_WAIT.

Additionally, the banner comment to radix_tree_preload() is altered to make
note of this prerequisite.  Possibly there should be a WARN_ON() too.

Without this fix, I have seen the following recursive deadlock caused by
radix_tree_insert() attempting to allocate memory inside the spinlocked
region, which resulted in FS-Cache being called back into to release memory -
which required the spinlock already held.

Linus Torvalds a414f01ac2 strcmp: fix overflow and possibly signedness error
Doing the strcmp return value as

	signed char __res = *cs - *ct;

is wrong for two reasons.  The subtraction can overflow because __res
doesn't use a type big enough.  Moreover the compared bytes should be
interpreted as unsigned char as specified by POSIX.

The same problem is fixed in strncmp.

FUJITA Tomonori 75f1cdf1dd x86: Handle HW IOMMU initialization failure gracefully
If HW IOMMU initialization fails (Intel VT-d often does this,
typically due to BIOS bugs), we fall back to nommu. It doesn't
work for the majority since nowadays we have more than 4GB
memory so we must use swiotlb instead of nommu.

The problem is that it's too late to initialize swiotlb when HW
IOMMU initialization fails. We need to allocate swiotlb memory
earlier from bootmem allocator. Chris explained the issue in
detail:

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125657444317079&w=2

The current x86 IOMMU initialization sequence is too complicated
and handling the above issue makes it more hacky.

This patch changes x86 IOMMU initialization sequence to handle
the above issue cleanly.

The new x86 IOMMU initialization sequence are:

1. we initialize the swiotlb (and setting swiotlb to 1) in the case
   of (max_pfn > MAX_DMA32_PFN && !no_iommu). dma_ops is set to
   swiotlb_dma_ops or nommu_dma_ops. if swiotlb usage is forced by
   the boot option, we finish here.

2. we call the detection functions of all the IOMMUs

3. the detection function sets x86_init.iommu.iommu_init to the
   IOMMU initialization function (so we can avoid calling the
   initialization functions of all the IOMMUs needlessly).

4. if the IOMMU initialization function doesn't need to swiotlb
   then sets swiotlb to zero (e.g. the initialization is
   sucessful).

5. if we find that swiotlb is set to zero, we free swiotlb
   resource.

Kumar Gala 01deab98e3 powerpc: Minor cleanup to lib/Kconfig.debug
We don't need an explicit PPC64 in the DEBUG_PREEMPT dependancies as all
PPC platforms now support TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT.

Christian Borntraeger 5c82871335 ratelimit: Make suppressed output messages more useful
Today I got:

  [39648.224782] Registered led device: iwl-phy0::TX
  [40676.545099] __ratelimit: 246 callbacks suppressed
  [40676.545103] abcdef[23675]: segfault at 0 ...

as you can see the ratelimit message contains a function prefix.
Since this is always __ratelimit, this wont help much.

This patch changes __ratelimit and printk_ratelimit to print the
function name that calls ratelimit.

This will pinpoint the responsible function, as long as not several
different places call ratelimit with the same ratelimit state at
the same time. In that case we catch only one random function that
calls ratelimit after the wait period.

Alexey Dobriyan d43c36dc6b headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.h
After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current,
it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k!
Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this.

Andy Spencer 8fccae2c95 sscanf(): fix %*s%n
When using %*s, sscanf should honor conversion specifiers immediately
following the %*s.  For example, the following code should find the
position of the end of the string "hello".

  int end;
  char buf[] = "hello    world";
  sscanf(buf, "%*s%n", &end);
  printf("%d\n", end);

Ideally, sscanf would advance the fmt and str pointers the same as it
would without the *, but the code for that is rather complicated and is
not included in the patch.

Frederic Weisbecker 925936ebf3 tracing: Pushdown the bkl tracepoints calls
Currently we are calling the bkl tracepoint callbacks just before the
bkl lock/unlock operations, ie the tracepoint call is not inside a
lock_kernel() function but inside a lock_kernel() macro. Hence the
bkl trace event header must be included from smp_lock.h. This raises
some nasty circular header dependencies:

linux/smp_lock.h -> trace/events/bkl.h -> trace/define_trace.h
-> trace/ftrace.h -> linux/ftrace_event.h -> linux/hardirq.h
-> linux/smp_lock.h

This results in incomplete event declarations, spurious event
definitions and other kind of funny behaviours.

This is hardly fixable without ugly workarounds. So instead, we push
the file name, line number and function name as lock_kernel()
parameters, so that we only deal with the trace event header from
lib/kernel_lock.c

This adds two parameters to lock_kernel() and unlock_kernel() but
it should be fine wrt to performances because this pair dos not seem
to be called in fast paths.
