percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

- Fix nForce workaround by honouring the pointer_update var
- Revert "ns" to u64, as per the hrtimer API
- Revert to the zero-delay timer startup, since I can't reproduce any
problem with it (please, give me the hint!)

With the callback mode HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE_UNLOCK, the start of the
stream with zero delay doesn't work. Since IRQSAFE mode is removed,
we have to change the pcsp start-up code.
This patch splits the callback function to two parts, the triggering
of the port and the calculation of the expire time, and the update of
the ALSA PCM core. The first part is called both from the trigger-start
and the hrtimer callback while the latter is handled only in the
hrtimer callback.

snd-pcsp driver takes chip->substream_lock together with PCM substream
lock. These are even mixed up with hrtimer's lock, resulting in messy
lock depencies. Right now, snd-pcsp driver resolves the deadlock by
using HRTIMER_CB_SOFTIRQ. However, this isn't nice for a really fast
path like bit-flipping.
This patch introduces a tasklet for PCM period handling so that the
hrtimer callback can be handled fast. This also reduce the use of
chip->substream_lock to avoid deadlocks. It's still used in pointer
callback, but even this could be removed with a proper barrier.
Another good solution is to introduce async trigger callback. But,
this will involve with a major rewrite of the PCM core code, so I
take first this easy fix.

In order to be able to do range hrtimers we need to use accessor functions
to the "expire" member of the hrtimer struct.
This patch converts sound/ to these accessors.

Change HRTIMER_CB_IRQSAFE to HRTIMER_CB_SOFTIRQ,
as suggested by Thomas Gleixner.
That solves the lock dependancy reported in
Bug #10701.
That also allows to call hrtimer_start()
directly, tasklet "stupid hack" removed.

It appears that alsa allows a sound buffer with size not
evenly devided by the period size. This triggers a warning in
snd-pcsp and floods the log. As a quick fix, the warning should
be disabled.

The attached patch adds back the compatibility code, allowing the
driver to work with older alsa-libs.
The removal was premature, it breaks the real-life configs.
