rtc: rtc-hid-sensor-time: add option hctosys to set time at boot
drivers/rtc/hctosys (CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS) doesn't work for
rtc-hid-sensor-time because it will be called in late_init, and thus before
rtc-hid-sensor-time gets loaded. To set the time through
rtc-hid-sensor-time at startup, the module now checks by default if the
system time is before 1970-01-02 and sets the system time (once) if this is
the case.
To disable this behaviour, set the module option hctosys to zero, e.g. by
using rtc-hid-sensor-time.hctosys=0 at the kernel command line if the
driver is statically linked into the kernel.

rtc: rtc-hid-sensor-time: allow full years (16bit) in HID reports
The draft for HID-sensors (HUTRR39) currently doesn't define the range for
the attribute year. Asking one of the authors revealed that full years
(e.g. 2013 instead of just 13) were meant.
So we now allow both, 8 bit and 16 bit values for the attribute year and
assuming full years when the value is 16 bits wide.
We will still support 8 bit values until the specification gets final
(and maybe defines a way to set the time too).

autofs4: translate pids to the right namespace for the daemon
The PID and the TGID of the process triggering the mount are sent to the
daemon. Currently the global pid values are sent (ones valid in the
initial pid namespace) but this is wrong if the autofs daemon itself is
not running in the initial pid namespace.
So send the pid values that are valid in the namespace of the autofs daemon.
The namespace to use is taken from the oz_pgrp pid pointer, which was set
at mount time to the mounting process' pid namespace.
If the pid translation fails (the triggering process is in an unrelated
pid namespace) then the automount fails with ENOENT.

autofs4: allow autofs to work outside the initial PID namespace
Enable autofs4 to work in a "container". oz_pgrp is converted from pid_t
to struct pid and this is stored at mount time based on the "pgrp=" option
or if the option is missing then the current pgrp.
The "pgrp=" option is interpreted in the PID namespace of the current
process. This option is flawed in that it doesn't carry the namespace
information, so it should be deprecated. AFAICS the autofs daemon always
sends the current pgrp, which is the default anyway.
The oz_pgrp is also set from the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SETPIPEFD_CMD ioctl.
This ioctl sets oz_pgrp to the current pgrp. It is not allowed to change
the pid namespace.
oz_pgrp is used mainly to determine whether the process traversing the
autofs mount tree is the autofs daemon itself or not. This function now
compares the pid pointers instead of the pid_t values.
One other use of oz_pgrp is in autofs4_show_options. There is shows the
virtual pid number (i.e. the one that is valid inside the PID namespace
of the calling process)
For debugging printk convert oz_pgrp to the value in the initial pid
namespace.

checkpatch: warn when using gcc's binary constant ("0b") extension
The gcc extension for binary constants that start with 0b is only
supported with gcc version 4.3 or higher.
The kernel can still be compiled with earlier versions of gcc, so have
checkpatch emit a warning for these constants.
Restructure checkpatch's constant finding code a bit to support finding
these binary constants.

lib/bitmap.c: speed up bitmap_find_free_region
In bitmap_find_free_region(), if we skip the all-ones words and find bits
in a not-all-ones word, we can improve performance of it.
For example, If bitmap_find_free_region() is called with order=0, First,
It scans bitmap array by the increment of long type, then find 1 free bit
within 1 long type value. In 32 bits system and 1024 bits size, in the
worst case, We need 1024 for-loops to find 1 free bit. But, If this is
applied, it takes 64 for-loops. Instead, It will be needed additional
if-comparison of every word and It can take time slightly as 'Test case
3'. But, In many cases, It will speed up significantly.
Test cases bellows show the time taken to execute bitmap_find_free_region()
before and after patch.
Test case 1: order is 0. all bits are one except that last one bit is zero.
before patch: 29727 ns
after patch: 2349 ns
Test case 2: order is 1. all bits are one except that last 2 contiguous bits
are zero.
before patch: 15475 ns
after patch: 2225 ns
Test case 3: order is 1. all words are not-all-ones and don't have 2 contiguous
bits except that last 2 contiguous are zero.
before patch: 15475 ns
after patch: 16131 ns

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on
probe failure, since commit 0998d063100 ("device-core: Ensure drvdata =
NULL when no driver is bound"). Thus, it is not needed to manually clear
the device driver data to NULL.
