hrtimers: Reorder clock bases
The ordering of the clock bases is historical due to the
CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC constants. Now the hrtimer bases
have their own enumeration due to the gap between CLOCK_MONOTONIC and
CLOCK_BOOTTIME. So we can be more clever as most timers end up on the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC base due to the virtue of POSIX declaring that
relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers are not affected by time changes. In
desktop environments this is slowly changing as applications switch to
absolute timers, but I've observed empty CLOCK_REALTIME bases often
enough. There is no performance penalty or overhead when
CLOCK_REALTIME timers are active, but in case they are not we don't
skip over a full cache line.

perf tools: Fix ommitted mmap data update on remap
Commit eac9eacee16 "perf tools: Check we are able to read the event
size on mmap" brought a check to ensure we can read the size of the
event before dereferencing it, and do a remap otherwise to move the
buffer forward.
However that remap was ommitting all the necessary work to
update the new page offset, head, and to unmap previous pages,
etc...
To fix this, gather all the code that fetches the event in a
seperate helper which does all the necessary checks about the
header/event size and tells us anytime a remap is needed.

apm-emulation: apm_mutex breaks ACK; remove it
apm_mutex is locked by a process (e.g. apm -s) at the start of apm_ioctl() and
remains locked while pm_suspend() is called. Any subsequent process trying to
ACK the suspend (e.g. apmd) is then blocked at the start of apm_ioctl(),
causing the suspend to be delayed for 5 seconds in apm_suspend_notifier()
while the ACK times out. In short, ACKs don't work.
The driver's data structures are sufficiently protected by assorted locks. And
pm_suspend() has its own mutex to prevent reentrancy. Consequently there is no
obvious requirement for apm_mutex, which evolved from earlier BKL calls. So
let's remove it.

watchdog: Change the default timeout and configure nmi watchdog period based on watchdog_thresh
Before the conversion of the NMI watchdog to perf event, the
watchdog timeout was 5 seconds. Now it is 60 seconds. For my
particular application, netbooks, 5 seconds was a better
timeout. With a short timeout, we catch faults earlier and are
able to send back a panic. With a 60 second timeout, the user is
unlikely to wait and will instead hit the power button, causing
us to lose the panic info.
This change configures the NMI period to watchdog_thresh and
sets the softlockup_thresh to watchdog_thresh * 2. In addition,
watchdog_thresh was reduced to 10 seconds as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.

dev_deactivate_many() issues one synchronize_rcu() call after qdiscs set

This call is here to make sure they are no outstanding qdisc-less

But in dismantle phase, we dont have to wait, because we wont activate

After this patch, device dismantle uses one synchronize_net() and one

Give up on pushing CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
I still happen to believe that I$ miss costs are a major thing, but
sadly, -Os doesn't seem to be the solution. With or without it, gcc
will miss some obvious code size improvements, and with it enabled gcc
will sometimes make choices that aren't good even with high I$ miss
ratios.
For example, with -Os, gcc on x86 will turn a 20-byte constant memcpy
into a "rep movsl". While I sincerely hope that x86 CPU's will some day
do a good job at that, they certainly don't do it yet, and the cost is
