cpuset: fix a regression in validating config change

It's not allowed to clear masks of a cpuset if there're tasks in it,
but it's broken:

  # mkdir /cgroup/sub
  # echo 0 > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.cpus
  # echo 0 > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.mems
  # echo $$ > /cgroup/sub/tasks
  # echo > /cgroup/sub/cpuset.cpus
  (should fail)

This bug was introduced by commit 88fa523bff295f1d60244a54833480b02f775152
("cpuset: allow to move tasks to empty cpusets").

tj: Dropped temp bool variables and nestes the conditionals directly.

microblaze: fix clone syscall

Fix inadvertent breakage in the clone syscall ABI for Microblaze that
was introduced in commit f3268edbe6fe ("microblaze: switch to generic
fork/vfork/clone").

The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the
4th argument; the third argument slot is used for the stack size.  The
incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd
slot.

This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc
code will work correctly.

All kernel versions from v3.8-rc1 were affected.

module: don't modify argument of module_kallsyms_lookup_name()

If we pass a pointer to a const string in the form "module:symbol"
module_kallsyms_lookup_name() will try to split the string at the colon,
i.e., will try to modify r/o data. That will, in fact, fail on a kernel
with enabled CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA.

Avoid modifying the passed string in module_kallsyms_lookup_name(),
modify find_module_all() instead to pass it the module name length.

modules: don't fail to load on unknown parameters.

Although parameters are supposed to be part of the kernel API, experimental
parameters are often removed.  In addition, downgrading a kernel might cause
previously-working modules to fail to load.

On balance, it's probably better to warn, and load the module anyway.
This may let through a typo, but at least the logs will show it.

module: do percpu allocation after uniqueness check.  No, really!

v3.8-rc1-5-g1fb9341 was supposed to stop parallel kvm loads exhausting
percpu memory on large machines:

    Now we have a new state MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, we can insert the
    module into the list (and thus guarantee its uniqueness) before we
    allocate the per-cpu region.

In my defence, it didn't actually say the patch did this.  Just that
we "can".

This patch actually *does* it.

mutex: Fix w/w mutex deadlock injection

The check needs to be for > 1, because ctx->acquired is already incremented.
This will prevent ww_mutex_lock_slow from returning -EDEADLK and not locking
the mutex. It caused a lot of false gpu lockups on radeon with
CONFIG_DEBUG_WW_MUTEX_SLOWPATH=y because a function that shouldn't be able
to return -EDEADLK did.

tracing: Disable tracing on warning

Add a traceoff_on_warning option in both the kernel command line as well
as a sysctl option. When set, any WARN*() function that is hit will cause
the tracing_on variable to be cleared, which disables writing to the
ring buffer.

This is useful especially when tracing a bug with function tracing. When
a warning is hit, the print caused by the warning can flood the trace with
the functions that producing the output for the warning. This can make the
resulting trace useless by either hiding where the bug happened, or worse,
by overflowing the buffer and losing the trace of the bug totally.

params.c: fix Smack complaint about parse_args

In commit 9fb48c744: "params: add 3rd arg to option handler callback
signature", the if-guard added to the pr_debug was overzealous; no
callers pass NULL, and existing code above and below the guard assumes
as much.  Change the if-guard to match, and silence the Smack
complaint.

params: replace printk(KERN_<LVL>...) with pr_<lvl>(...)

I left 1 printk which uses __FILE__, __LINE__ explicitly, which should
not be subject to generic preferences expressed via pr_fmt().

+ tweaks suggested by Joe Perches:
- add doing to irq-enabled warning, like others.  It wont happen often..
- change sysfs failure crit, not just err, make it 1 line in logs.
- coalese 2 format fragments into 1 >80 char line

params: Fix potential memory leak in add_sysfs_param()

On allocation failure, it would fail to free the old attrs array which
was no longer referenced by anything (since it would free the old
module_param_attrs struct on the way out).

Comment the suspicious-looking krealloc() usage to explain why it *isn't*
actually buggy, despite looking like a classic realloc() usage bug.
