This reverts commit c7b2eff059fcc2d1b7085ee3d84b79fd657a537b.
Hugh Dickins explains:
"It seems too little tested: "losetup -d /dev/loop0" fails with
EINVAL because nothing sets lo_thread; but even when you patch
loop_thread() to set lo->lo_thread = current, it can't survive
more than a few dozen iterations of the loop below (with a tmpfs
mounted on /tst):j=0
cp /dev/zero /tst
while :
do
let j=j+1
echo "Doing pass $j"
losetup /dev/loop0 /tst/zero
mkfs -t ext2 -b 1024 /dev/loop0 >/dev/null 2>&1
mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 /mnt
umount /mnt
losetup -d /dev/loop0
doneit collapses with failed ioctl then BUG_ON(!bio).
I think the original lo_done completion was more subtle and safe
than the kthread conversion has allowed for."Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Take two, now without spurious whitespace :( Applies to git & 2.6.17-rc6
CONFIG_DEBUG_STACKOVERFLOW existed for x86_64 in 2.4, but seems to have gone AWOL in 2.6.
I've pretty much just copied this over from the 2.4 code, with
appropriate tweaks for the 2.6 kernel, plus a bugfix. I'd personally
rather see it printed out the way other arches do it, i.e.
bytes-remaining-until-overflow, rather than having to do the subtraction
yourself. Also, only 128 bytes remaining seems awfully late to issue a
warning. But I'll start here :)Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen

include/asm/smp.h:103: error: syntax error before '->' tokenakpm: nasty. It appears to be

Intel now has support for Architectural Performance Monitoring Counters
( Refer to IA-32 Intel Architecture Software Developer's Manual
http://www.intel.com/design/pentium4/manuals/253669.htm ). This
feature is present starting from Intel Core Duo and Intel Core Solo processors.What this means is, the performance monitoring counters and some performance
monitoring events are now defined in an architectural way (using cpuid).
And there will be no need to check for family/model etc for these architectural
events.Below is the patch to use this performance counters in nmi watchdog driver.

On some i386/x86_64 systems, sending an NMI IPI as a broadcast will
reset the system. This seems to be a BIOS bug which affects machines
where one or more cpus are not under OS control. It occurs on HT
systems with a version of the OS that is not compiled without HT
support. It also occurs when a system is booted with max_cpus=n where
2 < cpus known to the BIOS. The fix is to always send NMI IPI as
a mask instead of as a broadcast.Signed-off-by: Keith Owens

Appended patch fixes the "APIC error on CPUX: 00(40)" observed during bootup.
From SDM Vol-3A "Valid Interrupt Vectors" section:
"When an illegal vector value (0-15) is written to an LVT entry
and the delivery mode is Fixed, the APIC may signal an illegal
vector error, with out regard to whether the mask bit is set
or whether an interrupt is actually seen on input."Signed-off-by: Suresh Siddha

x86_64 and i386 behave inconsistently when sending an IPI on vector 2
(NMI_VECTOR). Make both behave the same, so IPI 2 is sent as NMI.The crash code was abusing send_IPI_allbutself() by passing a code
instead of a vector, it only worked because crash knew about the
internal code of send_IPI_allbutself(). Change crash to use NMI_VECTOR
instead, and remove the comment about how crash was abusing the function.This patch is a pre-requisite for fixing the problem where sending an
IPI as NMI would reboot some Dell Xeon systems. I cannot fix that
problem while crash continus to abuse send_IPI_allbutself().It also removes the inconsistency between i386 and x86_64 for
NMI_VECTOR. That will simplify all the RAS code that needs to bring
all the cpus to a clean stop, even when one or more cpus are spinning
disabled.Signed-off-by: Keith Owens

Currently CONFIG_REORDER uses -ffunction-sections for all code;
however, creating a separate section for each function is not useful
for modules and just adds bloat. Moving this option from CFLAGS to
CFLAGS_KERNEL shrinks module object files (e.g., the module tree for a
kernel built with most drivers as modules shrinked from 54M to 46M),
and decreases the number of sysfs files in /sys/module/*/sections/
directories.Signed-off-by: Sergey Vlasov

During some profiling I noticed that default_idle causes a lot of
memory traffic. I think that is caused by the atomic operations
to clear/set the polling flag in thread_info. There is actually
no reason to make this atomic - only the idle thread does it
to itself, other CPUs only read it. So I moved it into ti->status.Converted i386/x86-64/ia64 for now because that was the easiest
way to fix ACPI which also manipulates these flags in its idle
function.Cc: Nick Piggin
