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.

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.

Unlinking fallocated 60G file after doing sync && echo 3 >
/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches && time rm --help

X86 before (linux 3.6-rc4):
# time rm -f test1
real    0m2.710s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m1.530s

X86 after:
# time rm -f test1
real    0m0.644s
user    0m0.003s
sys     0m0.060s

MIPS before (linux 2.6.37):
# time rm -f test1
real    0m 4.93s

# time rm -f test1

jbd2: optimize jbd2_journal_force_commit

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
journal transaction open.

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.

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: Optimize cpufreq_frequency_table_verify()

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.
