IB/ipath: Remove unsafe fastrcvint code from interrupt handler
The fastrcvint code's purpose was to avoid reading the interrupt
status if kernel packets were in the receive queue (to reduce
overhead). Because intstatus was not read, we could miss the error
interrupt bit indicating freeze mode, since it only delivers a single
interrupt, even if still pending after intclear is written.
This patch removes that unsafe optimization.

Allow nodes to exist that only contain ZONE_MOVABLE
With the introduction of kernelcore=, a configurable zone is created on
request. In some cases, this value will be small enough that some nodes
contain only ZONE_MOVABLE. On some NUMA configurations when this occurs,
arch-independent zone-sizing will get the size of the memory holes within
the node incorrect. The value of present_pages goes negative and the boot
fails.
This patch fixes the bug in the calculation of the size of the hole. The
test case is to boot test a NUMA machine with a low value of kernelcore=
before and after the patch is applied. While this bug exists in early
kernel it cannot be triggered in practice.
This patch has been boot-tested on a variety machines with and without
kernelcore= set.

In usual, migrate_pages(page,,) is called with holding mm->sem by system call.
(mm here is a mm_struct which maps the migration target page.)
This semaphore helps avoiding some race conditions.
But, if we want to migrate a page by some kernel codes, we have to avoid
some races. This patch adds check code for following race condition.
1. A page which page->mapping==NULL can be target of migration. Then, we have
to check page->mapping before calling try_to_unmap().
2. anon_vma can be freed while page is unmapped, but page->mapping remains as
it was. We drop page->mapcount to be 0. Then we cannot trust page->mapping.
So, use rcu_read_lock() to prevent anon_vma pointed by page->mapping from
being freed during migration.

Davi fixed a missing cast in the __put_user(), that was making timerfd
return a single byte instead of the full value.
Talking with Michael about the timerfd man page, we think it'd be better to
use a u64 for the returned value, to align it with the eventfd
implementation.
This is an ABI change. The timerfd code is new in 2.6.22 and if we merge this
into 2.6.23 then we should also merge it into 2.6.22.x. That will leave a few
early 2.6.22 kernels out in the wild which might misbehave when a future
timerfd-enabled glibc is run on them.
mtk says: The difference would be that read() will only return 4 bytes, while
the application will expect 8. If the application is checking the size of
returned value, as it should, then it will be able to detect the problem (it
could even be sophisticated enough to know that if this is a 4-byte return,
then it is running on an old 2.6.22 kernel). If the application is not
checking the return from read(), then its 8-byte buffer will not be filled --
the contents of the last 4 bytes will be undefined, so the u64 value as a
whole will be junk.

Currently we calculate the first timeslice for every context

ctx->prio so we always calculate the longest possible timeslice for the
lowest possible priority.
This patch makes sure to update the schedule-related fields before
