This patch allows programs to change the cdrom option at runtime
through sysfs.

USB: f_mass_storage: 2048 block size for cdrom devices

Bios will recognize the cdrom device like most other cdrom
devices. This allows people to boot ISOs from their phone.

writeback: Fix occasional slow sync(1)

In case when system contains no dirty pages, wakeup_flusher_threads()
will submit WB_SYNC_NONE writeback for 0 pages so wb_writeback() exits
immediately without doing anything. Thus sync(1) will write all the
dirty inodes from a WB_SYNC_ALL writeback pass which is slow.

Fix the problem by using get_nr_dirty_pages() in
wakeup_flusher_threads() instead of calculating number of dirty pages
manually. That function also takes number of dirty inodes into account.

hrtimer: Introduce effective timer slack

task_get_effective_timer_slack() returns timer slack value to be used
to configure per-task timers. It can be equal or higher than task's
timer slack value.

For now task_get_effective_timer_slack() returns timer_slack_ns of the
task. Timer slack cgroup controller will implement a bit more
sophisticated logic.

cgroups: Introduce timer slack controller

Every task_struct has timer_slack_ns value. This value uses to round up
poll() and select() timeout values. This feature can be useful in
mobile environment where combined wakeups are desired.

Originally, prctl() was the only way to change timer slack value of
a process. So you was not able change timer slack value of another
process.

cgroup subsys "timer_slack" implements timer slack controller. It
provides a way to set minimal timer slack value for a group of tasks.
If a task belongs to a cgroup with minimal timer slack value higher than
task's value, cgroup's value will be applied.

Timer slack controller allows to implement setting timer slack value of
a process based on a policy. For example, you can create foreground and
background cgroups and move tasks between them based on system state.

kernel: cgroup_timer_slack: Dynamic management of timer slack

This feature allows to use different minimal timer slack values and to
dynamically manage them when the system has been resumed (it's active)
or when has been suspended.

A new file is provided in addition to the two files provided by the
original timer slack controller:
- "timer_slack.min_slack_suspend_ns" is the minimal timer slack value
  to use when the system is suspended (screen off)

For further info, please refers to the timer slack documentation:

decompressor: add LZ4 decompressor module
Add support for LZ4 decompression in the Linux Kernel. LZ4 Decompression
APIs for kernel are based on LZ4 implementation by Yann Collet.

Benchmark Results(PATCH v3)
Compiler: Linaro ARM gcc 4.6.2

1. ARMv7, 1.5GHz based board
 Kernel: linux 3.4
 Uncompressed Kernel Size: 14MB Compressed Size Decompression Speed

 LZO 6.7MB 20.1MB/s, 25.2MB/s(UA)
 LZ4 7.3MB 29.1MB/s, 45.6MB/s(UA)

2. ARMv7, 1.7GHz based board
 Kernel: linux 3.7
 Uncompressed Kernel Size: 14MB Compressed Size Decompression Speed

 LZO 6.0MB 34.1MB/s, 52.2MB/s(UA)
 LZ4 6.5MB 86.7MB/s
- UA: Unaligned memory Access support
- Latest patch set for LZO applied

This patch set is for adding support for LZ4-compressed Kernel. LZ4 is a
very fast lossless compression algorithm and it also features an extremely
fast decoder [1].

But we have five of decompressors already and one question which does
arise, however, is that of where do we stop adding new ones? This issue
had been discussed and came to the conclusion [2].
Russell King said that we should have:

- one decompressor which is the fastest
- one decompressor for the highest compression ratio
- one popular decompressor (eg conventional gzip)

If we have a replacement one for one of these, then it should do exactly
that: replace it.

The benchmark shows that an 8% increase in image size vs a 66% increase in
decompression speed compared to LZO(which has been known as the fastest
decompressor in the Kernel). Therefore the "fast but may not be small"
compression title has clearly been taken by LZ4 [3].

kbuild: fix for updated LZ4 tool with the new streaming format
LZ4 has been updated with LZ4 Streaming Format specification(v1.3).
lz4demo is replaced by lz4c. lz4c supports both the new streaming and legacy format with -l option. This patch makes use of lz4c to support
legacy format which is used for LZ4 De/compression in the linux kernel.

arm: Remove enforced Os flag for LZ4 decompressor
-Os is enforced here, based on the test result of decompression time below, slightly faster than -O2. But further tests with UA show that using -O2 will be the right choice especially in the case of the unaligned access enabled and the gap, few counts in the normal decompression mode is small enough to remove -Os. Decompression Time(counts) Normal UA enabled -Os 6717 3447 -O2 6720 2728 Note: ARM v7, Kernel 3.4 counter freq. = 32768 HZ UA(Unaligned Access) gcc version 4.6.2
