Some users (hi Zwane) have seen a problem when running a workload that
eats nearly all of physical memory - th system does an OOM kill, even
when there is still a lot of swap free.
The problem appears to be a very big task that is holding the swap
token, and the VM has a very hard time finding any other page in the
system that is swappable.
Instead of ignoring the swap token when sc->priority reaches 0, we could
simply take the swap token away from the memory hog and make sure we
don't give it back to the memory hog for a few seconds.
This patch resolves the problem Zwane ran into.

There are some callers in cpufreq hotplug notify path that the lowest
function calls lock_cpu_hotplug(). The lock is already held during
cpu_up() and cpu_down() calls when the notify calls are broadcast to
registered clients.
Ideally if possible, we could disable_preempt() at the highest caller and
make sure we dont sleep in the path down in cpufreq->driver_target() calls
but the calls are so intertwined and cumbersome to cleanup.
Hence we consistently use lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug() in
all places.
- Removed export of cpucontrol semaphore and made it static.
- removed explicit uses of up/down with lock_cpu_hotplug()
so we can keep track of the the callers in same thread context and
just keep refcounts without calling a down() that causes a deadlock.
- Removed current_in_hotplug() uses
- Removed PF_HOTPLUG_CPU in sched.h introduced for the current_in_hotplug()
temporary workaround.
Tested with insmod of cpufreq_stat.ko, and logical online/offline
to make sure we dont have any hang situations.

This replaces the (in my opinion horrible) VM_UNMAPPED logic with very
explicit support for a "remapped page range" aka VM_PFNMAP. It allows a
VM area to contain an arbitrary range of page table entries that the VM
never touches, and never considers to be normal pages.
Any user of "remap_pfn_range()" automatically gets this new
functionality, and doesn't even have to mark the pages reserved or
indeed mark them any other way. It just works. As a side effect, doing
mmap() on /dev/mem works for arbitrary ranges.
Sparc update from David in the next commit.

There was some confusion about the different zone usage, this should fix
up the resulting mess in the GFP zonemask handling.
The different zone usage is still confusing (it's very easy to mix up
the individual zone numbers with the GFP zone _list_ numbers), so we
might want to clean up some of this in the future, but in the meantime
this should fix the actual problems.

Although we tend to associate VM_RESERVED with remap_pfn_range, quite a few
drivers set VM_RESERVED on areas which are then populated by nopage. The
PageReserved removal in 2.6.15-rc1 changed VM_RESERVED not to free pages in
zap_pte_range, without changing those drivers not to set it: so their pages
just leak away.
Let's not change miscellaneous drivers now: introduce VM_UNPAGED at the core,
to flag the special areas where the ptes may have no struct page, or if they
have then it's not to be touched. Replace most instances of VM_RESERVED in
core mm by VM_UNPAGED. Force it on in remap_pfn_range, and the sparc and
sparc64 io_remap_pfn_range.
Revert addition of VM_RESERVED to powerpc vdso, it's not needed there. Is it
needed anywhere? It still governs the mm->reserved_vm statistic, and special
vmas not to be merged, and areas not to be core dumped; but could probably be
eliminated later (the drivers are probably specifying it because in 2.4 it
kept swapout off the vma, but in 2.6 we work from the LRU, which these pages
don't get on).
Use the VM_SHM slot for VM_UNPAGED, and define VM_SHM to 0: it serves no
purpose whatsoever, and should be removed from drivers when we clean up.

It looks like snd_xxx is not the only nopage to be using PageReserved as a way
of holding a high-order page together: which no longer works, but is masked by
our failure to free from VM_RESERVED areas. We cannot fix that bug without
first substituting another way to hold the high-order page together, while
farming out the 0-order pages from within it.
That's just what PageCompound is designed for, but it's been kept under
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE. Remove the #ifdefs: which saves some space (out- of-line
put_page), doesn't slow down what most needs to be fast (already using
hugetlb), and unifies the way we handle high-order pages.

Fields obtained through cpuid vector 0x1(ebx[16:23]) and
vector 0x4(eax[14:25], eax[26:31]) indicate the maximum values and might not
always be the same as what is available and what OS sees. So make sure
"siblings" and "cpu cores" values in /proc/cpuinfo reflect the values as seen
by OS instead of what cpuid instruction says. This will also fix the buggy BIOS
cases (for example where cpuid on a single core cpu says there are "2" siblings,
even when HT is disabled in the BIOS.

Add a new 4GB GFP_DMA32 zone between the GFP_DMA and GFP_NORMAL zones.
As a bit of historical background: when the x86-64 port
was originally designed we had some discussion if we should
use a 16MB DMA zone like i386 or a 4GB DMA zone like IA64 or
both. Both was ruled out at this point because it was in early
2.4 when VM is still quite shakey and had bad troubles even
dealing with one DMA zone. We settled on the 16MB DMA zone mainly
because we worried about older soundcards and the floppy.
But this has always caused problems since then because
device drivers had trouble getting enough DMA able memory. These days
the VM works much better and the wide use of NUMA has proven
it can deal with many zones successfully.
So this patch adds both zones.
This helps drivers who need a lot of memory below 4GB because
their hardware is not accessing more (graphic drivers - proprietary
and free ones, video frame buffer drivers, sound drivers etc.).
Previously they could only use IOMMU+16MB GFP_DMA, which
was not enough memory.
Another common problem is that hardware who has full memory
addressing for >4GB misses it for some control structures in memory
(like transmit rings or other metadata). They tended to allocate memory
in the 16MB GFP_DMA or the IOMMU/swiotlb then using pci_alloc_consistent,
but that can tie up a lot of precious 16MB GFPDMA/IOMMU/swiotlb memory
(even on AMD systems the IOMMU tends to be quite small) especially if you have
many devices. With the new zone pci_alloc_consistent can just put
this stuff into memory below 4GB which works better.
One argument was still if the zone should be 4GB or 2GB. The main
motivation for 2GB would be an unnamed not so unpopular hardware
raid controller (mostly found in older machines from a particular four letter
company) who has a strange 2GB restriction in firmware. But
that one works ok with swiotlb/IOMMU anyways, so it doesn't really
need GFP_DMA32. I chose 4GB to be compatible with IA64 and because
it seems to be the most common restriction.
The new zone is so far added only for x86-64.
For other architectures who don't set up this
new zone nothing changes. Architectures can set a compatibility
define in Kconfig CONFIG_DMA_IS_DMA32 that will define GFP_DMA32
as GFP_DMA. Otherwise it's a nop because on 32bit architectures
it's normally not needed because GFP_NORMAL (=0) is DMA able
enough.
One problem is still that GFP_DMA means different things on different
architectures. e.g. some drivers used to have #ifdef ia64 use GFP_DMA
(trusting it to be 4GB) #elif __x86_64__ (use other hacks like
the swiotlb because 16MB is not enough) ... . This was quite
ugly and is now obsolete.
These should be now converted to use GFP_DMA32 unconditionally. I haven't done
this yet. Or best only use pci_alloc_consistent/dma_alloc_coherent
which will use GFP_DMA32 transparently.
