kthread: Implement park/unpark facility

To avoid the full teardown/setup of per cpu kthreads in the case of
cpu hot(un)plug, provide a facility which allows to put the kthread
into a park position and unpark it when the cpu comes online again.

nohz: Reduce overhead under high-freq idling patterns

One testbox of mine (Intel Nehalem, 16-way) uses MWAIT for its idle routine,
which apparently can break out of its idle loop rather frequently, with
high frequency.

In that case NO_HZ_FULL=y kernels show high ksoftirqd overhead and constant
context switching, because tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() will, if
delta_jiffies == 0, mis-identify this as a timer event - activating the
TIMER_SOFTIRQ, which wakes up ksoftirqd.

Fix this by treating delta_jiffies == 0 the same way we treat other short
wakeups, delta_jiffies == 1.

tick: Dynamically set broadcast irq affinity

When a cpu goes to a deep idle state where its local timer is
shutdown, it notifies the time frame work to use the broadcast timer
instead.  Unfortunately, the broadcast device could wake up any CPU,
including an idle one which is not concerned by the wake up at all. So
in the worst case an idle CPU will wake up to send an IPI to the CPU
whose timer expired.

Provide an opt-in feature CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ which tells the core
that is should set the interrupt affinity of the broadcast interrupt
to the cpu which has the earliest expiry time. This avoids unnecessary
spurious wakeups and IPIs.

cpuidle: make a single register function for all

The usual scheme to initialize a cpuidle driver on a SMP is:

	cpuidle_register_driver(drv);
	for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
		device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu);
		cpuidle_register_device(device);
	}

This code is duplicated in each cpuidle driver.

On UP systems, it is done this way:

	cpuidle_register_driver(drv);
	device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu);
	cpuidle_register_device(device);

On UP, the macro 'for_each_cpu' does one iteration:

        for ((cpu) = 0; (cpu) < 1; (cpu)++, (void)mask)

Hence, the initialization loop is the same for UP than SMP.

Beside, we saw different bugs / mis-initialization / return code unchecked in
the different drivers, the code is duplicated including bugs. After fixing all
these ones, it appears the initialization pattern is the same for everyone.

Please note, some drivers are doing dev->state_count = drv->state_count. This is
not necessary because it is done by the cpuidle_enable_device function in the
cpuidle framework. This is true, until you have the same states for all your
devices. Otherwise, the 'low level' API should be used instead with the specific
initialization for the driver.

Let's add a wrapper function doing this initialization with a cpumask parameter
for the coupled idle states and use it for all the drivers.

That will save a lot of LOC, consolidate the code, and the modifications in the
future could be done in a single place. Another benefit is the consolidation of
the cpuidle_device variable which is now in the cpuidle framework and no longer
spread accross the different arch specific drivers.

ARM: mm: implement LoUIS API for cache maintenance ops

ARM v7 architecture introduced the concept of cache levels and related
control registers. New processors like A7 and A15 embed an L2 unified cache
controller that becomes part of the cache level hierarchy. Some operations in
the kernel like cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable do not require a flush of the
entire cache hierarchy to DRAM but just the cache levels belonging to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS), which in most of ARM v7 systems
correspond to L1.

The current cache flushing API used in cpu_suspend and __cpu_disable,
flush_cache_all(), ends up flushing the whole cache hierarchy since for
v7 it cleans and invalidates all cache levels up to Level of Coherency
(LoC) which cripples system performance when used in hot paths like hotplug
and cpuidle.

Therefore a new kernel cache maintenance API must be added to cope with
latest ARM system requirements.

This patch adds flush_cache_louis() to the ARM kernel cache maintenance API.

This function cleans and invalidates all data cache levels up to the
Level of Unification Inner Shareable (LoUIS) and invalidates the instruction
cache for processors that support it (> v7).

This patch also creates an alias of the cache LoUIS function to flush_kern_all
for all processor versions prior to v7, so that the current cache flushing
behaviour is unchanged for those processors.

v7 cache maintenance code implements a cache LoUIS function that cleans and
invalidates the D-cache up to LoUIS and invalidates the I-cache, according
to the new API.

ARM: Set CLK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ flag memory mapped timers

Memory mapped timers are used as broadcast timers to wake up a core
across reset. CLK_EVT_FEAT_DYNIRQ ensures only the intended cores are
woken up instead of the default core that they are routed to, thereby
saving power.

ARM: kernel: update cpu_suspend code to use cache LoUIS operations

In processors like A15/A7 L2 cache is unified and integrated within the
processor cache hierarchy, so that it is not considered an outer cache
anymore. For processors like A15/A7 flush_cache_all() ends up cleaning
all cache levels up to Level of Coherency (LoC) that includes
the L2 unified cache.

When a single CPU is suspended (CPU idle) a complete L2 clean is not
required, so generic cpu_suspend code must clean the data cache using the
newly introduced cache LoUIS function.

The context and stack pointer (context pointer) are cleaned to main memory
using cache area functions that operate on MVA and guarantee that the data
is written back to main memory (perform cache cleaning up to the Point of
Coherency - PoC) so that the processor can fetch the context when the MMU
is off in the cpu_resume code path.

outer_cache management remains unchanged.
