ARM: 7463/1: topology: Update cpu_power according to DT information

Use cpu compatibility field and clock-frequency field of DT to
estimate the capacity of each core of the system and to update
the cpu_power field accordingly.
This patch enables to put more running tasks on big cores than
on LITTLE ones. But this patch doesn't ensure that long running
tasks will run on big cores and short ones on LITTLE cores.

The function init_cpu_topology() references

This is often because init_cpu_topology lacks a __init

ARM: kernel: enhance MPIDR macro definitions

Kernel subsystems other than the topology layer need the MPIDR

masks. This patch moves the MPIDR register masks definition to
a header file and defines a macro to simplify access to MPIDR bit fields
representing affinity levels.

af_unix: speedup /proc/net/unix
/proc/net/unix has quadratic behavior, and can hold unix_table_lock for
a while if high number of unix sockets are alive. (90 ms for 200k
sockets...)

We already have a hash table, so its quite easy to use it.

Problem is unbound sockets are still hashed in a single hash slot
(unix_socket_table[UNIX_HASH_TABLE])

This patch also spreads unbound sockets to 256 hash slots, to speedup
both /proc/net/unix and unix_diag.

Time to read /proc/net/unix with 200k unix sockets :
(time dd if=/proc/net/unix of=/dev/null bs=4k)

before : 520 secs
after : 2 secs

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.

Current implementation of jbd2_journal_force_commit() is suboptimal because
result in empty and useless commits. But callers just want to force and wait
any unfinished commits. We already have jbd2_journal_force_commit_nested()
which does exactly what we want, except we are guaranteed that we do not hold

net: loopback: set default mtu to 64K

loopback current mtu of 16436 bytes allows no more than 3 MSS TCP
segments per frame, or 48 Kbytes. Changing mtu to 64K allows TCP
stack to build large frames and significantly reduces stack overhead.

Performance boost on bulk TCP transferts can be up to 30 %, partly
because we now have one ACK message for two 64KB segments, and a lower
probability of hitting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_reordering default limit.

ARM: 7746/1: mm: lazy cache flushing on non-mapped pages

Currently flush_dcache_page() thinks pages as non-mapped if
mapping_mapped(mapping) return false. This approach is very
coase:
	- mmap on part of file may cause all pages backed on
	the file being thought as mmaped

	- file-backed pages aren't mapped into user space actually
	if the memory mmaped on the file isn't accessed

This patch uses page_mapped() to decide if the page has been
mapped.

From the attached test code, I find there is much performance
improvement(>25%) when accessing page caches via read under this
situations, so memcpy benefits a lot from not flushing cache
under this situation.

ARM: 7730/1: DMA-mapping: mark all !DMA_TO_DEVICE pages in unmapping as clean

It is common for one sg to include many pages, so mark all these
pages as clean to avoid unnecessary flushing on them in
set_pte_at() or update_mmu_cache().

The patch might improve loading performance of applciation code a bit.

On the below test code to read file(~1GByte size) from usb mass storage
disk to buffer created with mmap(PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC) on
Pandaboard, average ~1% improvement can be observed with the patch on
10 times test.

unsigned int sum = 0;
static unsigned long tv_diff(struct timeval *tv1, struct timeval *tv2)

ARM: 7587/1: implement optimized percpu variable access

Use the previously unused TPIDRPRW register to store percpu offsets.
TPIDRPRW is only accessible in PL1, so it can only be used in the kernel.

This replaces 2 loads with a mrc instruction for each percpu variable
access. With hackbench, the performance improvement is 1.4% on Cortex-A9
(highbank). Taking an average of 30 runs of "hackbench -l 1000" yields:

Before: 6.2191
After: 6.1348

Will Deacon reported similar delta on v6 with 11MPCore.

The asm "memory clobber" are needed here to ensure the percpu offset
gets reloaded. Testing by Will found that this would not happen in
__schedule() which is a bit of a special case as preemption is disabled
but the execution can move cores.
