ARM: compressed/head.S: work around new binutils warning

In August 2012, Matthew Gretton-Dann checked a change
into binutils labelled "Error on obsolete & warn on
deprecated registers", apparently as part of ARMv8
support. Apparently, this was supposed to emit
the message "Warning: This coprocessor register access
is deprecated in ARMv8" when using certain mcr/mrc
instructions and building for ARMv8. Unfortunately,
the message that is actually emitted appears to be
'(null)', which is less helpful in comparison.

Even more unfortunately, this is biting us on
every single kernel build with a new gas, because
arch/arm/boot/compressed/head.S and some other files
in that directory are built with -march=all since
kernel commit 80cec14a8 "[ARM] Add -march=all to
assembly file build in arch/arm/boot/compressed"
back in v2.6.28.

This patch reverts Russell's nice solution and
replaces it with a more complex one that sprinkles
.arch statements inside of the head.S file in
functions that are executed in different architecture
levels, which seems to solve the original problem
just as well, and gets rid of the new one, too.

Without this patch, building anything results in:

sched/rt: Remove redundant nr_cpus_allowed test

Date	Fri, 4 Oct 2013 14:24:53 -0500

From: Shawn Bohrer <sbohrer@rgmadvisors.com>

In 76854c7e8f3f4172fef091e78d88b3b751463ac6 "sched: Use
rt.nr_cpus_allowed to recover select_task_rq() cycles" an optimization
was added to select_task_rq_rt() that immediately returns when
p->nr_cpus_allowed == 1 at the beginning of the function.  This makes
the latter p->nr_cpus_allowed > 1 check redundant and can be removed.

fs: vfat: reduce the worst case latencies

When a block partition is mounted with FAT file system
and MS_DIRSYNC option is used, some file system operations
like create, rename shall sleep in caller's context until
all the metadata have been committed to the non-volatile memory.
Since this operation is blocking call for user context,
the WRITE_SYNC option must be used instead of WRITE
(async operation) which incur inherent latencies while
flushing the meta-data corresponding to directory entries

CHROMIUM: mm: Fix calculation of dirtyable memory

The system uses global_dirtyable_memory() to calculate
number of dirtyable pages/pages that can be allocated
to the page cache.  A bug causes an underflow thus making
the page count look like a big unsigned number.  This in turn
confuses the dirty writeback throttling to aggressively write
back pages as they become dirty (usually 1 page at a time).

Fix is to ensure there is no underflow while doing the math.

Optimize EPOLL_CTL_DEL such that it does not require the 'epmutex' by
converting the file->f_ep_links list into an rcu one. In this way, we can
traverse the epoll network on the add path in parallel with deletes. Since
deletes can't create loops or worse wakeup paths, this is safe.

This patch in combination with the patch "epoll: Do not take global 'epmutex'
for simple topologies", shows a dramatic performance improvement in
scalability for SPECjbb.

*epoll: Do not take global 'epmutex' for simple topologies

Date	Tue, 1 Oct 2013 17:08:14 +0000 (GMT)

When calling EPOLL_CTL_ADD for an epoll file descriptor that is attached
directly to a wakeup source, we do not need to take the global 'epmutex',
unless the epoll file descriptor is nested. The purpose of taking
the 'epmutex' on add is to prevent complex topologies such as loops and
deep wakeup paths from forming in parallel through multiple EPOLL_CTL_ADD
operations. However, for the simple case of an epoll file descriptor
attached directly to a wakeup source (with no nesting), we do not need
to hold the 'epmutex'.

This patch along with 'epoll: optimize EPOLL_CTL_DEL using rcu' improves
scalability on larger systems. Quoting Nathan Zimmer's mail on SPECjbb
performance:

"
On the 16 socket run the performance went from 35k jOPS to 125k jOPS.
In addition the benchmark when from scaling well on 10 sockets to scaling well
on just over 40 sockets.

...

Currently the benchmark stops scaling at around 40-44 sockets but it seems like
I found a second unrelated bottleneck.
