ARM: 7463/1: topology: Update cpu_power according to DT information

Use cpu compatibility field and clock-frequency field of DT to
estimate the capacity of each core of the system and to update
the cpu_power field accordingly.
This patch enables to put more running tasks on big cores than
on LITTLE ones. But this patch doesn't ensure that long running
tasks will run on big cores and short ones on LITTLE cores.

ARM: 7482/1: topology: fix section mismatch warning for init_cpu_topology

Get rid of this warning..
arch/arm/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0xac78): Section mismatch in reference
from the function init_cpu_topology() to the function
 .init.text:parse_dt_topology()
The function init_cpu_topology() references
the function __init parse_dt_topology().
This is often because init_cpu_topology lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of parse_dt_topology is wrong.

slub: Push irq disable into allocate_slab()

Do the irq handling in allocate_slab() instead of __slab_alloc().

__slab_alloc() is already cluttered and allocate_slab() is already
fiddling around with gfp flags.

slub: Do not use frozen page flag but a bit in the page counters

Do not use a page flag for the frozen bit. It needs to be part
of the state that is handled with cmpxchg_double(). So use a bit
in the counter struct in the page struct for that purpose.

slub: explicit list_lock taking

The allocator fastpath rework does change the usage of the list_lock.
Remove the list_lock processing from the functions that hide them from the
critical sections and move them into those critical sections.

This in turn simplifies the support functions (no __ variant needed anymore)
and simplifies the lock handling on bootstrap.

Inline add_partial since it becomes pretty simple.

slub: Invert locking and avoid slab lock

Locking slabs is no longer necesary if the arch supports cmpxchg operations
and if no debuggin features are used on a slab. If the arch does not support
cmpxchg then we fallback to use the slab lock to do a cmpxchg like operation.

The patch also changes the lock order. Slab locks are subsumed to the node lock
now. With that approach slab_trylocking is no longer necessary.

slub: Disable interrupts in free_debug processing

slub: Avoid disabling interrupts in free slowpath

Disabling interrupts can be avoided now. However, list operation still require
disabling interrupts since allocations can occur from interrupt
contexts and there is no way to perform atomic list operations.

The acquition of the list_lock therefore has to disable interrupts as well.

Dropping interrupt handling significantly simplifies the slowpath.

slub: Enable backtrace for create/delete points

This patch attempts to grab a backtrace for the creation
