cpufreq: Save user policy min/max instead of policy min/max during hotplug

When a CPU is hotplugged off, various fields of the policy are saved so
that they can be restored when the CPU is hotplugged back in.

The existing code saves the policy min/max field during hotplug remove and
restores it into user policy min/max during hotplug add. This results in
the loss of the user policy min/max values across a hotplug remove/add.

Fix it by saving the user policy min/max instead of policy min/max during
hotplug remove. During a hotplug add, after user policy min/max is
restored, the policy min/max is already recomputed. So, there's no risk of
going beyound any limits imposed by the CPUFREQ_ADJUST/INCOMPATIBLE
notifiers.

ext4: speed up truncate/unlink by not using bforget() unless needed

Do not iterate over data blocks scanning for bh's to forget as they're
never exist. This improves time taken by unlink / truncate syscall.
Tested by continuously truncating file that is being written by dd.
Another test is rm -rf of linux tree while tar unpacks it. With
ordered data mode condition unlikely(!tbh) was always met in
ext4_free_blocks. With journal data mode tbh was found only few times,
so optimisation is also possible.

CPU hotplug, debug: detect imbalance between get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus()

The synchronization between CPU hotplug readers and writers is achieved
by means of refcounting, safeguarded by the cpu_hotplug.lock.

get_online_cpus() increments the refcount, whereas put_online_cpus()
decrements it.  If we ever hit an imbalance between the two, we end up
compromising the guarantees of the hotplug synchronization i.e, for
example, an extra call to put_online_cpus() can end up allowing a
hotplug reader to execute concurrently with a hotplug writer.

So, add a WARN_ON() in put_online_cpus() to detect such cases where the
refcount can go negative, and also attempt to fix it up, so that we can
continue to run.

cpufreq: ondemand: Boost CPU frequency only for touch input

Originally CPU frequency were boosted for any input event.
In some case, sensor sends a lot of input event, which
keep CPU in high frequency.  CPU frequency only need to
be boosted when real user interaction happens.

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix update_sampling_rate race with hotplug

update_sampling_rate has a for loop which goes through each
online cpu and possibly queue up the ondemand work for them.
But while doing this it doesnt take any hotplug lock which
could potentially cause a race condition where ondemand work
is queued after the hotplug code (which sets the policy to NULL)
in the governor has cancelled any pending work. This could cause
a crash while trying to access the NULL policy in dbs_check_cpu.

Protecting the for_each_online_cpu loop with get_online_cpus()
and put_online_cpus().

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix hotplug deadlock with store_powersave_bias

store_powersave_bias() acquires the hotplug lock and the dbs_mutex
lock, but does so in the wrong order.  Deadlocks like the following
can result.

Thread A:
    get_online_cpus+0x3c/0x5c           <- acquires 'cpu_hotplug.lock'
    store_powersave_bias+0x80/0x3f4     <- acquires 'dbs_mutex'

    sysfs_write_file+0x108/0x13c
    vfs_write+0xb0/0x128
    sys_write+0x38/0x64

Thread B:
    cpufreq_governor_dbs+0x7c/0x55c     <- acquires 'dbs_mutex'
    __cpufreq_governor+0x90/0xe0
    __cpufreq_set_policy+0x1b0/0x258

    sysfs_write_file+0x108/0x13c
    vfs_write+0xb0/0x128
    sys_write+0x38/0x64

Fix this by flipping the order in which the locks are acquired and
released in store_powersave_bias so that it is the same as in the
hotplug path.
