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, even though there are dirty inodes in
the system.  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.

scheduler: compute time-average nr_running per run-queue

Compute the time-average number of running tasks per run-queue for a
trailing window of a fixed time period. The detla add/sub to the
average value is weighted by the amount of time per nr_running value
relative to the total measurement period.

scheduler: Re-compute time-average nr_running on read

Re-compute time-average nr_running when it is read. This would
prevent reading stalled average value if there were no run-queue
changes for a long time. New average value is returned to the reader,
but not stored to avoid concurrent writes. Light-weight sequential
counter synchronization is used to assure data consistency for
re-computing average.

softirq: reduce latencies

In various network workloads, __do_softirq() latencies can be up
to 20 ms if HZ=1000, and 200 ms if HZ=100.

This is because we iterate 10 times in the softirq dispatcher,
and some actions can consume a lot of cycles.

This patch changes the fallback to ksoftirqd condition to :

- A time limit of 2 ms.
- need_resched() being set on current task

When one of this condition is met, we wakeup ksoftirqd for further
softirq processing if we still have pending softirqs.

Using need_resched() as the only condition can trigger RCU stalls,
as we can keep BH disabled for too long.

I ran several benchmarks and got no significant difference in
throughput, but a very significant reduction of latencies (one order
of magnitude) :

In following bench, 200 antagonist "netperf -t TCP_RR" are started in
background, using all available cpus.

Then we start one "netperf -t TCP_RR", bound to the cpu handling the NIC
IRQ (hard+soft)

ARM: mutex: use generic atomic_dec-based implementation for ARMv6+

Commit a76d7bd96d65 ("ARM: 7467/1: mutex: use generic xchg-based
implementation for ARMv6+") removed the barrier-less, ARM-specific
mutex implementation in favour of the generic xchg-based code.

Since then, a bug was uncovered in the xchg code when running on SMP
platforms, due to interactions between the locking paths and the
MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER code. This was fixed in 0bce9c46bf3b ("mutex: place
lock in contended state after fastpath_lock failure"), however, the
atomic_dec-based mutex algorithm is now marginally more efficient for
ARM (~0.5% improvement in hackbench scores on dual A15).

This patch moves ARMv6+ platforms to the atomic_dec-based mutex code.

ARM: 7626/1: arm/crypto: Make asm SHA-1 and AES code Thumb-2 compatible

This patch fixes aes-armv4.S and sha1-armv4-large.S to work
natively in Thumb.  This allows ARM/Thumb interworking workarounds
to be removed.

I also take the opportunity to convert some explicit assembler
directives for exported functions to the standard
ENTRY()/ENDPROC().

For the code itself:

  * In sha1_block_data_order, use of TEQ with sp is deprecated in
    ARMv7 and not supported in Thumb.  For the branches back to
    .L_00_15 and .L_40_59, the TEQ is converted to a CMP, under the
    assumption that clobbering the C flag here will not cause
    incorrect behaviour.

    For the first branch back to .L_20_39_or_60_79 the C flag is
    important, so sp is moved temporarily into another register so
    that TEQ can be used for the comparison.

  * In the AES code, most forms of register-indexed addressing with
    shifts and rotates are not permitted for loads and stores in
    Thumb, so the address calculation is done using a separate
    instruction for the Thumb case.

The resulting code is unlikely to be optimally scheduled, but it
should not have a large impact given the overall size of the code.
I haven't run any benchmarks.

mm: implement WasActive page flag (for improving cleancache)
Since about 2.6.27, the page replacement algorithm maintains
an 'active' bit to help decide which pages are most eligible
to reclaim, see http://linux-mm.org/PageReplacementDesign

This 'active' information is also useful to cleancache but is lost
by the time that cleancache has the opportunity to preserve the
pageful of data.  This patch adds a new page flag 'WasActive' to
retain the state.  The flag may possibly be useful elsewhere.

It is up to each cleancache backend to utilize the bit as
it desires.  The matching patch for zcache is included here
for clarification/discussion purposes, though it will need to
go through GregKH and the staging tree.

The patch resolves issues reported with cleancache which occur
especially during streaming workloads on older processors,

block: Add support for reinsert a dispatched req

Add support for reinserting a dispatched request back to the
scheduler's internal data structures.
This capability is used by the device driver when it chooses to
interrupt the current request transmission and execute another (more
urgent) pending request. For example: interrupting long write in order
to handle pending read. The device driver re-inserts the
remaining write request back to the scheduler, to be rescheduled
for transmission later on.

Add API for verifying whether the current scheduler
supports reinserting requests mechanism. If reinsert mechanism isn't
supported by the scheduler, this code path will never be activated.

block: Add API for urgent request handling

This patch add support in block & elevator layers for handling
urgent requests. The decision if a request is urgent or not is taken
by the scheduler. Urgent request notification is passed to the underlying
block device driver (eMMC for example). Block device driver may decide to
interrupt the currently running low priority request to serve the new
urgent request. By doing so READ latency is greatly reduced in read&write
collision scenarios.

Note that if the current scheduler doesn't implement the urgent request
mechanism, this code path is never activated.
