a10b32db34 kgdb: kgdboc console poll hooks for serial_txx9 uart
Implement the serial polling hooks for the serial_txx9 uart for use with
kgdboc.

This patch once got SOB from Jason on Jul 2008 and (perhaps) merged into
kgdb-next branch, but lost somewhere then.  I resend it now with Jason's
Acked-by.

9c26f52b90 x86: Fix uv bau sending buffer initialization
The initialization of the UV Broadcast Assist Unit's sending
buffers was making an invalid assumption about the
initialization of an MMR that defines its address.

The BIOS will not be providing that MMR.  So
uv_activation_descriptor_init() should unconditionally set it.

Tested on UV simulator.

a893a84e87 mm_for_maps: simplify, use ptrace_may_access()
It would be nice to kill __ptrace_may_access(). It requires task_lock(),
but this lock is only needed to read mm->flags in the middle.

Convert mm_for_maps() to use ptrace_may_access(), this also simplifies
the code a little bit.

Also, we do not need to take ->mmap_sem in advance. In fact I think
mm_for_maps() should not play with ->mmap_sem at all, the caller should
take this lock.

With or without this patch, without ->cred_guard_mutex held we can race
with exec() and get the new ->mm but check old creds.

9e48858f7d security: rename ptrace_may_access => ptrace_access_check
The ->ptrace_may_access() methods are named confusingly - the real
ptrace_may_access() returns a bool, while these security checks have
a retval convention.

Rename it to ptrace_access_check, to reduce the confusion factor.

c17ef45342 rcu: Remove Classic RCU
Remove Classic RCU, given that the combination of Tree RCU and
the proposed Bloatwatch RCU do everything that Classic RCU can
with fewer bugs.

Tree RCU has been default in x86 builds for almost six months,
and seems to be quite reliable, so there does not seem to be
much justification for keeping the Classic RCU code and config
complexity around anymore.

e68888bcb6 reiserfs: minimal fix for ACL caching
reiserfs uses NULL as "unknown" and ERR_PTR(-ENODATA) as "no ACL";
several codepaths store the former instead of the latter.

All those codepaths go through iset_acl() and all cases when it's
called with NULL acl are for the second variety, so the minimal
fix is to teach iset_acl() to deal with that.

Proper fix is to switch to more usual conventions and avoid back
and forth between internally used ERR_PTR(-ENODATA) and NULL
expected by the rest of the kernel.

c63e09eccc Make allocation of anon devices cheaper
Standard trick - add a new variable (start) such that
for each n < start n is known to be busy.  Allocation can
skip checking everything in [0..start) and if it returns
n, we can set start to n + 1.  Freeing below start sets
start to what we'd just freed.

Of course, it still sucks if we do something like
	free 0
	allocate
	allocate
in a loop - still O(n^2) time.  However, on saner loads it
improves the things a lot and the entire thing is not worth
the trouble of switching to something with better worst-case
behaviour.

507e123151 timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid function calls
When the kernel is configured with CONFIG_TIMER_STATS but timer
stats are runtime disabled we still get calls to
__timer_stats_timer_set_start_info which initializes some
fields in the corresponding struct timer_list.

So add some quick checks in the the timer stats setup functions
to avoid function calls to __timer_stats_timer_set_start_info
when timer stats are disabled.

In an artificial workload that does nothing but playing ping
pong with a single tcp packet via loopback this decreases cpu
consumption by 1 - 1.5%.
