Using gpio_request_array()/gpio_free_array() can make the code simpler
because it can set the direction and initial value in one shot and the for

Also, struct v3020_gpio is removed, because the struct v3020_gpio is

Move the calls to memcpy_fromio() up into the loop in dmi_scan_machine(),
and move the signature checks back down into dmi_decode(). We need to
check at 16-byte intervals but keep a 32-byte buffer for an SMBIOS entry,
so shift the buffer after each iteration.
Merge smbios_present() into dmi_present(), so we look for an SMBIOS
signature at the beginning of the given buffer and then for a DMI
signature at an offset of 16 bytes.

init: scream bloody murder if interrupts are enabled too early
As I was testing a lot of my code recently, and having several
"successes", I accidentally noticed in the dmesg this little line:
[ 0.000000] start_kernel(): bug: interrupts were enabled *very* early, fixing it
Sure enough, one of my patches two commits ago enabled interrupts early.
The sad part here is that I never noticed it, and I ran several tests with
ktest too, and ktest did not notice this line.
What ktest looks for (and so does many other automated testing scripts) is
a back trace produced by a WARN_ON() or BUG(). As a back trace was never
produced, my buggy patch could have slipped into linux-next, or even
worse, mainline.
Adding a WARN(!irqs_disabled()) makes this bug a little more obvious:

Do you see it?
The original version of this patch just slapped a WARN_ON() in there and
kept the printk(). Ard van Breemen suggested using the WARN() interface,
which makes the code a bit cleaner.
Also, while examining other warnings in init/main.c, I found two other
locations that deserve a bloody murder scream if their conditions are hit,
and updated them accordingly.

epoll: support for disabling items, and a self-test app
It is not currently possible to reliably delete epoll items when using the
same epoll set from multiple threads. After calling epoll_ctl with
EPOLL_CTL_DEL, another thread might still be executing code related to an
event for that epoll item (in response to epoll_wait). Therefore the
deleting thread does not know when it is safe to delete resources
pertaining to the associated epoll item because another thread might be
using those resources.
The deleting thread could wait an arbitrary amount of time after calling
epoll_ctl with EPOLL_CTL_DEL and before deleting the item, but this is
inefficient and could result in the destruction of resources before
another thread is done handling an event returned by epoll_wait.
This patch enhances epoll_ctl to support EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE, which disables
an epoll item. If epoll_ctl returns -EBUSY in this case, then another
thread may handling a return from epoll_wait for this item. Otherwise if
epoll_ctl returns 0, then it is safe to delete the epoll item. This
allows multiple threads to use a mutex to determine when it is safe to
delete an epoll item and its associated resources, which allows epoll
items to be deleted both efficiently and without error in a multi-threaded
environment. Note that EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE is only useful in conjunction
with EPOLLONESHOT, and using EPOLL_CTL_DISABLE on an epoll item without
EPOLLONESHOT returns -EINVAL.
This patch also adds a new test_epoll self-test program to both
demonstrate the need for this feature and test it.

epoll: trim epitem by one cache line
It is common for epoll users to have thousands of epitems, so saving a
cache line on every allocation leads to large memory savings.
Since epitem allocations are cache-aligned, reducing sizeof(struct epitem)
from 136 bytes to 128 bytes will allow it to squeeze under a cache line
boundary on x86_64.
Via /sys/kernel/slab/eventpoll_epi, I see the following changes on my
x86_64 Core2 Duo (which has 64-byte cache alignment):
object_size : 192 => 128
objs_per_slab: 21 => 32
Also, add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to check for future accidental breakage.

argv_split(): teach it to handle mutable strings
argv_split() allocates argv[count_argc(str)] array and assumes that it
will find the same number of arguments later. This is obviously wrong if
this string can be changed, say, by sysctl.
With this patch argv_split() kstrndup's the whole string and does not
split it, we simply replace the spaces with zeroes and keep the allocated
memory in argv[-1] for argv_free(arg).
We do not use argv[0] because:
- str can be all-spaces or empty. In fact this case is fine,
we could kfree() it before return, but:
- str can have a space at the start, and we can not rely on
kstrndup(skip_spaces(str)) because it can equally race if
this string is mutable.
Also, simplify count_argc() and kill the no longer used skip_arg().
