[LINARO] workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueues

Adapted for 3.4 from lsk-v3.10

Workqueues can be performance or power-oriented. Currently, most workqueues are
bound to the CPU they were created on. This gives good performance (due to cache
effects) at the cost of potentially waking up otherwise idle cores (Idle from
scheduler's perspective. Which may or may not be physically idle) just to
process some work. To save power, we can allow the work to be rescheduled on a
core that is already awake.

Workqueues created with the WQ_UNBOUND flag will allow some power savings.
However, we don't change the default behaviour of the system.  To enable
power-saving behaviour, a new config option CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT needs to
be turned on. This option can also be overridden by the
workqueue.power_efficient boot parameter.

tj: Updated config description and comments.  Renamed
    CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT to CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT_DEFAULT.

[LINARO] workqueue: Add system wide power_efficient workqueues

Adapted for 3.4 from lsk-v3.10

This patch adds system wide workqueues aligned towards power saving. This is
done by allocating them with WQ_UNBOUND flag if 'wq_power_efficient' is set to
'true'.

tj: updated comments a bit.

[LINARO] block: queue work on power efficient wq

Adapted for 3.4 from lsk-v3.10

Block layer uses workqueues for multiple purposes. There is no real dependency
of scheduling these on the cpu which scheduled them.

On a idle system, it is observed that and idle cpu wakes up many times just to
service this work. It would be better if we can schedule it on a cpu which the
scheduler believes to be the most appropriate one.

This patch replaces normal workqueues with power efficient versions.

assorted tweaks
lz4: ensure length does not wrap

Given some pathologically compressed data, lz4 could possibly decide to
wrap a few internal variables, causing unknown things to happen.  Catch
this before the wrapping happens and abort the decompression.

lz4: fix another possible overrun

There is one other possible overrun in the lz4 code as implemented by
Linux at this point in time (which differs from the upstream lz4
codebase, but will get synced at in a future kernel release.)  As
pointed out by Don, we also need to check the overflow in the data
itself.

While we are at it, replace the odd error return value with just a
"simple" -1 value as the return value is never used for anything other
than a basic "did this work or not" check.

lz4: add overrun checks to lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize()

Jan points out that I forgot to make the needed fixes to the
lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize() function to mirror the changes done
in lz4_decompress() with regards to potential pointer overflows.

The only in-kernel user of this function is the zram code, which only
takes data from a valid compressed buffer that it made itself, so it's
not a big issue.  But due to external kernel modules using this
function, it's better to be safe here.

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.

cpufreq_frequency_table_verify() is rewritten here to make it more logical
and efficient.
 - merge multiple lines for variable declarations together.
 - quit early if any frequency between min/max is found.
 - don't call cpufreq_verify_within_limits() in case any valid freq is
   found as it is of no use.
 - rename the count variable as found and change its type to boolean.

The LDRD/STRD instruction is faster than LDM/STM on Cortex-A15.
Also optimized preload cache size for Cortex-A15.

Added USE_LDRDSTRD_OVER_LDMSTM to turn on LDRD/STRD optimization.
Added ARM_PLD_SIZE, default 32. Should set to 64 for Cortex-A15.
