sched/nohz: Rewrite, fix and add more accurate load-avg computation

Part 1)

After patch 453494c3d4 (sched: Fix nohz load accounting -- again!), we can fold
the idle into calc_load_tasks_idle between the last cpu load calculating and
calc_global_load calling. However problem still exits between the first cpu
load calculating and the last cpu load calculating. Every time when we do load
calculating, calc_load_tasks_idle will be added into calc_load_tasks, even if
the idle load is caused by calculated cpus. Consider following case:
5HZ+1
| cpu0_load     cpu1    cpu2    cpu3    calc_load_tasks    tasks_idle
|    1           1       1       1
|  -->calc_load                             1                  0
|    1           1       1       1
|                    -->calc_load           2                  0
|    0           0       1       0
|                    -->calc_load           2+1-3=0            -3
|    1           1       0       1
|                            -->calc_load   1-1=0              -1
V
5HZ+11     -->calc_global_load              0                  0

actually the load should be around 3, but shows nearly 0.

This can be found in our work load. The average running processes number
is about 15, but the load only shows about 4.

We provides a solution, by taking those load not calculated cpus' idle out from
global idle as calc_unmask_cpu_load_idle. Then when calc_load execute on every
cpu, we only fold calc_unmask_cpu_load_idle. After this patch, case above
should be as follow:
5HZ+1
| cpu0_load     cpu1    cpu2    cpu3   calc_load_tasks tasks_idle  unmask_idle
|    1           1       1       1
|  -->calc_load                             1              0           0
|    1           1       1       1
|              -->calc_load                 2              0           0
|    0           0       1       0
|                    -->calc_load           2+1-1=2        -3          -1
|    1           1       0       1
|                            -->calc_load   2+1=3          -2-1=-3     0
V
5HZ+11     -->calc_global_load              3              -3          0

Part 2)

Thanks to Charles Wang for spotting the defects in the current code:

 - If we go idle during the sample window -- after sampling, we get a
   negative bias because we can negate our own sample.

 - If we wake up during the sample window we get a positive bias
   because we push the sample to a known active period.

So rewrite the entire nohz load-avg muck once again, now adding
copious documentation to the code.

Staging: android: binder: Fix crashes when sharing a binder file between processes

Opening the binder driver and sharing the file returned with
other processes (e.g. by calling fork) can crash the kernel.
Prevent these crashes with the following changes:
- Add a mutex to protect against two processes mmapping the
  same binder_proc.
- After locking mmap_sem, check that the vma we want to access
  (still) points to the same mm_struct.
- Use proc->tsk instead of current to get the files struct since
  this is where we get the rlimit from.

timer: optimize apply_slack()

__fls(mask) is equivalent to find_last_bit(&mask, BITS_PER_LONG), but cheaper.
find_last_bit was showing up high on the list when I was profiling for stalls
on icache misses on a system with very small cache size (MIPS).

Staging: android: binder: Don't call dump_stack in binder_vma_open

If user-space partially unmaps the driver, binder_vma_open
would dump the kernel stack. This is not a kernel bug however
and will be treated as if the whole area was unmapped once
binder_vma_close gets called.

CPUfreq ondemand: update sampling rate without waiting for next sampling

When a new sampling rate is shorter than the current one, (e.g., 1 sec
--> 10 ms) regardless how short the new one is, the current ondemand
mechanism wait for the previously set timer to be expired.

For example, if the user has just expressed that the sampling rate
should be 10 ms from now and the previous was 1000 ms, the new rate may
become effective 999 ms later, which could be not acceptable for the
user if the user has intended to speed up sampling because the system is
expected to react to CPU load fluctuation quickly from __now__.

In order to address this issue, we need to cancel the previously set
timer (schedule_delayed_work) and reset the timer if resetting timer is
expected to trigger the delayed_work ealier.

vsprintf: optimize decimal conversion (again)

    This patch is based upon an original from Michal Nazarewicz.

    Previous code was using optimizations which were developed
    to work well even on narrow-word CPUs (by today's standards).
    But Linux runs only on 32-bit and wider CPUs. We can use that.

    First: using 32x32->64 multiply and trivial 32-bit shift,
    we can correctly divide by 10 much larger numbers, and thus
    we can print groups of 9 digits instead of groups of 5 digits.

    Next: there are two algorithms to print larger numbers.
    One is generic: divide by 1000000000 and repeatedly print
    groups of (up to) 9 digits. It's conceptually simple,
    but requires an (unsigned long long) / 1000000000 division.
    Second algorithm splits 64-bit unsigned long long into 16-bit chunks,
    manipulates them cleverly and generates groups of 4 decimal digits.
    It so happens that it does NOT require long long division.

    If long is > 32 bits, division of 64-bit values is relatively easy,
    and we will use the first algorithm.
    If long long is > 64 bits (strange architecture with VERY large long long),
    second algorithm can't be used, and we again use the first one.
    Else (if long is 32 bits and long long is 64 bits) we use second one.

    And third: there is a simple optimization which takes fast path
    not only for zero as was done before, but for all one-digit numbers.

    In all tested cases new code is faster than old one, in many cases by 30%,
    in few cases by more than 50% (for example, on x86-32, conversion of 12345678).
    Code growth is ~0 in 32-bit case and ~130 bytes in 64-bit case.
