Kconfig: update flightly outdated CONFIG_SMP documentation

Remove an outdated reference to "most personal computers" having only one
CPU, and change the use of "singleprocessor" and "single processor" in
CONFIG_SMP's documentation to "uniprocessor" across all arches where that
documentation is present.

Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt: fix a typo in example code

As the notifier_block name (i.e.  foobar_cpu_notifer) is different from
the parameter (i.e.foobar_cpu_notifier) of register function, that is
definitely error and it also makes readers confused.

coredump: set_dumpable: fix the theoretical race with itself

set_dumpable() updates MMF_DUMPABLE_MASK in a non-trivial way to ensure
that get_dumpable() can't observe the intermediate state, but this all
can't help if multiple threads call set_dumpable() at the same time.

And in theory commit_creds()->set_dumpable(SUID_DUMP_ROOT) racing with
sys_prctl()->set_dumpable(SUID_DUMP_DISABLE) can result in SUID_DUMP_USER.

Change this code to update both bits atomically via cmpxchg().

Note: this assumes that it is safe to mix bitops and cmpxchg.  IOW, if,
say, an architecture implements cmpxchg() using the locking (like
arch/parisc/lib/bitops.c does), then it should use the same locks for
set_bit/etc.

coredump: kill MMF_DUMPABLE and MMF_DUMP_SECURELY

Nobody actually needs MMF_DUMPABLE/MMF_DUMP_SECURELY, they are only used
to enforce the encoding of SUID_DUMP_* enum in mm->flags &
MMF_DUMPABLE_MASK.

Now that set_dumpable() updates both bits atomically we can kill them and
simply store the value "as is" in 2 lower bits.

proc: cleanup/simplify get_task_state/task_state_array

get_task_state() and task_state_array[] look confusing and suboptimal, it
is not clear what it can actually report to user-space and
task_state_array[] blows .data for no reason.

1. state = (tsk->state & TASK_REPORT) | tsk->exit_state is not
   clear. TASK_REPORT is self-documenting but it is not clear
   what ->exit_state can add.

   Move the potential exit_state's (EXIT_ZOMBIE and EXIT_DEAD)
   into TASK_REPORT and use it to calculate the final result.

2. With the change above it is obvious that task_state_array[]
   has the unused entries just to make BUILD_BUG_ON() happy.

   Change this BUILD_BUG_ON() to use TASK_REPORT rather than
   TASK_STATE_MAX and shrink task_state_array[].

3. Turn the "while (state)" loop into fls(state).

proc: fix the potential use-after-free in first_tid()

proc_task_readdir() verifies that the result of get_proc_task() is
pid_alive() and thus its ->group_leader is fine too.  However this is not
necessarily true after rcu_read_unlock(), we need to recheck this again
after first_tid() does rcu_read_lock().  Otherwise
leader->thread_group.next (used by next_thread()) can be invalid if the
rcu grace period expires in between.

The race is subtle and unlikely, but still it is possible afaics.  To
simplify lets ignore the "likely" case when tid != 0, f_version can be
cleared by proc_task_operations->llseek().

Suppose we have a main thread M and its subthread T.  Suppose that f_pos
== 3, iow first_tid() should return T.  Now suppose that the following
happens between rcu_read_unlock() and rcu_read_lock():

	1. T execs and becomes the new leader. This removes M from
	    ->thread_group but next_thread(M) is still T.

	2. T creates another thread X which does exec as well, T
	   goes away.

	3. X creates another subthread, this increments nr_threads.

	4. first_tid() does next_thread(M) and returns the already
	   dead T.

Note also that we need 2.  and 3.  only because of get_nr_threads() check,
and this check was supposed to be optimization only.

proc: don't (ab)use ->group_leader in proc_task_readdir() paths

proc_task_readdir() does not really need "leader", first_tid() has to
revalidate it anyway.  Just pass proc_pid(inode) to first_tid() instead,
it can do pid_task(PIDTYPE_PID) itself and read ->group_leader only if
necessary.

The patch also extracts the "inode is dead" code from
pid_delete_dentry(dentry) into the new trivial helper,
proc_inode_is_dead(inode), proc_task_readdir() uses it to return -ENOENT
if this dir was removed.

This is a bit racy, but the race is very inlikely and the getdents() after
openndir() can see the empty "." + ".." dir only once.

proc: fix ->f_pos overflows in first_tid()

1. proc_task_readdir()->first_tid() path truncates f_pos to int, this
   is wrong even on 64bit.

   We could check that f_pos < PID_MAX or even INT_MAX in
   proc_task_readdir(), but this patch simply checks the potential
   overflow in first_tid(), this check is nop on 64bit.  We do not care if
   it was negative and the new unsigned value is huge, all we need to
   ensure is that we never wrongly return !NULL.

2. Remove the 2nd "nr != 0" check before get_nr_threads(),
   nr_threads == 0 is not distinguishable from !pid_task() above.

fs/proc/proc_devtree.c: remove empty /proc/device-tree when no openfirmware exists.

Distribution kernels might want to build in support for /proc/device-tree
for kernels that might end up running on hardware that doesn't support
openfirmware.  This results in an empty /proc/device-tree existing.
Remove it if the OFW root node doesn't exist.

This situation actually confuses grub2, resulting in install failures.
grub2 sees the /proc/device-tree and picks the wrong install target cf.
http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/grub/trunk/grub/annotate/4300/util/grub-install.in#L311
grub should be more robust, but still, leaving an empty proc dir seems
pointless.

fs/proc: don't use module_init for non-modular core code

PROC_FS is a bool, so this code is either present or absent.  It will
never be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is
rather misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into
module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to
obviously non-modular code, and that would be ugly at best.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs.  one of the
priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets mapped onto
device_initcall, our use of fs_initcall (which makes sense for fs code)
will thus change these registrations from level 6-device to level 5-fs
(i.e.  slightly earlier).  However no observable impact of that small
difference has been observed during testing, or is expected.

Also note that this change uncovers a missing semicolon bug in the
registration of vmcore_init as an initcall.

exec:check_unsafe_exec: use while_each_thread() rather than next_thread()

next_thread() should be avoided, change check_unsafe_exec() to use
while_each_thread().

Nobody except signal->curr_target actually needs next_thread-like code,
and we need to change (fix) this interface.  This particular code is fine,
p == current.  But in general the code like this can loop forever if p
exits and next_thread(t) can't reach the unhashed thread.

This also saves 32 bytes.

exec:check_unsafe_exec: kill the dead -EAGAIN and clear_in_exec logic

fs_struct->in_exec == T means that this ->fs is used by a single process
(thread group), and one of the treads does do_execve().

To avoid the mt-exec races this code has the following complications:

	1. check_unsafe_exec() returns -EBUSY if ->in_exec was
	   already set by another thread.

	2. do_execve_common() records "clear_in_exec" to ensure
	   that the error path can only clear ->in_exec if it was
	   set by current.

However, after 9b1bf12d5d51 "signals: move cred_guard_mutex from
task_struct to signal_struct" we do not need these complications:

	1. We can't race with our sub-thread, this is called under
	   per-process ->cred_guard_mutex. And we can't race with
	   another CLONE_FS task, we already checked that this fs
	   is not shared.

	   We can remove the  dead -EAGAIN logic.

	2. "out_unmark:" in do_execve_common() is either called
	   under ->cred_guard_mutex, or after de_thread() which
	   kills other threads, so we can't race with sub-thread
	   which could set ->in_exec. And if ->fs is shared with
	   another process ->in_exec should be false anyway.

	   We can clear in_exec unconditionally.

This also means that check_unsafe_exec() can be void.
