The patch adds a CLREX or dummy STREX to the exception return path. This
is needed because several atomic/locking operations use a pair of
LDREX/STREXEQ and the EQ condition may not always be satisfied. This
would leave the exclusive monitor status set and may cause problems with
atomic/locking operations in the interrupted code.
With this patch, the atomic_set() operation can be a simple STR
instruction (on SMP systems, the global exclusive monitor is cleared by
STR anyway). Clearing the exclusive monitor during context switch is no
longer needed as this is handled by the exception return path anyway.

The definition of the SPI clock phase for the Motorola mode of
the PL022 driver was incorrect: the spec had been interpreted as
data being recieved on rising or falling edge of the clocks while
the correct interpretation is that data can be recieved on the
first or second edge transition, falling or rising depending on
the polarity setting.

This adds the long debated sched_clock() override for the weak
in-kernel jiffybased sched_clock(). The implementation is more or
less identical to the one used in arch/arm/plat-omap/common.c
and at last attempt to merge this the merge was postponed at the
request of Peter Zijlstra due to pending discussions regarding
generalized clocksource-based sched_clock() implementations by
adding a flag to the clocksource. However that discussion ended
up with the generic code needing to be rewritten and Paul Mundt
see no reason not to proceed with this for the time being as it
can be easily converted once the generic code is in place.

In cache_defer_req, 'dreq' is used for two significantly different
values that happen to be of the same type.
This is both confusing, and makes it hard to extend the range of one of
the values as we will in the next patch.
So introduce 'discard' to take one of the values.

This is largely a straightforward conversion. The patch results in
fewer output sections, and some data being reordered, but should have
no functional impact.
Also, note that this patch moves some data (namely, init_task and
cacheline-aligned) inside [_sdata,_edata].
Because frv already builds using -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections,
we can't use BSS_SECTION or RW_DATA_SECTION yet, since they do not
currently include the required .bss.* and .data.* sections.

Now that we have ACPI-based SMBus controller drivers, and we will start
telling users to use them instead of native drivers when I/O resources
conflict, I think it would be good to clearly mark ACPI drivers as such
in Kconfig.
This is exactly the same as we just did for hwmon drivers.

Make the I/O faster, mainly by using combined SMBus transactions when
possible. While the TSL2550 datasheet doesn't say the device supports
them, they seem to work just fine in practice, and a combined
transaction is faster than two simple transactions in many cases and
always more reliable.
A side effect is to suppress the delays between SMBus writes and
reads. The datasheet doesn't say they are needed and things work just
fine for me without them.
I also couldn't see any reason for the delay between reading the two
channels. Nor for the loop to get a reading in the first place. The
400 ms delay between samples only matters at chip power-up, after that
the chip always hold the previously sampled value so we never get to
wait.
All these changes make reading the lux value much faster and cheaper.

The allocator has some nice knobs for sending hints about where
to try and allocate new blocks, but when we're doing file allocations
we're not sending any hint at all.
This commit adds a simple extent map search to see if we can
quickly and easily find a hint for the allocator.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>

When btrfs fills a delayed allocation, it tries to increase
the wbc nr_to_write to cover a big part of allocation. The
theory is that we're doing contiguous IO and writing a few
more blocks will save seeks overall at a very low cost.
The problem is that extent_write_cache_pages could ignore
the new higher nr_to_write if nr_to_write had already gone
down to zero. We fix that by rechecking the nr_to_write
for every page that is processed in the pagevec.
This updates the math around bumping the nr_to_write value
to make sure we don't leave a tiny amount of IO hanging
around for the very end of a new extent.

This has the consequence of changing the section name use for head
code from ".text.head" to ".head.text". It also eliminates the
".text.head" output section (instead placing head code at the start of
the .text output section), which should be harmless.
This patch only changes the sections in the actual kernel, not those
in the compressed boot loader.
