msm: rpm-smd: Configure WQ for higer priority

sched: Set MC (multi-core) sched domain's busy_factor attribute to 1

busy_factor attribute of a scheduler domain causes busy CPUs (CPUs
that are not idle) to load balance less frequently in that domain,
which could impact performance by increasing scheduling latency for
tasks.

As an example, consider MC scheduler domain's attribute values of
max_interval = 4ms and busy_factor = 64. Further consider
max_load_balance_interval = 100 (HZ/10). In this case, a non-idle CPU
could put off load balance check in MC domain by 100ms. This
effectively means that a CPU running a single task in its queue could
fail to notice increased load on another CPU (that is in same MC
domain) for upto 100ms, before picking up load from the overloaded
CPU. Needless to say, this leads to increased scheduling latency for
tasks, affecting performance adversely.

By setting MC domain's busy_factor value to 1, we limit maximum
interval that busy CPU can put off load balance checks to 4ms
(effectively 10ms, given HZ value of 100).

block: account iowait time when waiting for completion of IO request

Using wait_for_completion() for waiting for a IO request to be executed
results in wrong iowait time accounting. For example, a system having
the only task doing write() and fdatasync() on a block device can be
reported being idle instead of iowaiting as it should because
blkdev_issue_flush() calls wait_for_completion() which in turn calls
schedule() that does not increment the iowait proc counter and thus does
not turn on iowait time accounting.

The patch makes block layer use wait_for_completion_io() instead of
wait_for_completion() where appropriate to account iowait time
correctly.

sched: add wait_for_completion_io[_timeout]

The only difference between wait_for_completion[_timeout]() and
wait_for_completion_io[_timeout]() is that the latter calls
io_schedule_timeout() instead of schedule_timeout() so that the caller
is accounted as waiting for IO, not just sleeping.

These functions can be used for correct iowait time accounting when the
completion struct is actually used for waiting for IO (e.g. completion
of a bio request in the block layer).

AIO: Don't plug the I/O queue in do_io_submit() Asynchronous I/O latency to a solid-state disk greatly increased between the 2.6.32 and 3.0 kernels. By removing the plug from do_io_submit(), we observed a 34% improvement in the I/O latency.

Unfortunately, at this level, we don't know if the request is to

	<<< so writeback thread will not be waked up and
	<<< the new dirty_io will not be flushed.
	if (wakeup_bdi)
	    bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed(bdi);

Writeback will run until there is a new flush work queued.  This may cause
a lot of dirty pages stay in memory for a long time.

block/partitions: optimize memory allocation in check_partition()

Currently, sizeof(struct parsed_partitions) may be 64KB in 32bit arch, so
it is easy to trigger page allocation failure by check_partition,
especially in hotplug block device situation(such as, USB mass storage,
MMC card, ...), and Felipe Balbi has observed the failure.

This patch does below optimizations on the allocation of struct
parsed_partitions to try to address the issue:

- make parsed_partitions.parts as pointer so that the pointed memory can
  fit in 32KB buffer, then approximate 32KB memory can be saved

- vmalloc the buffer pointed by parsed_partitions.parts because 32KB is
  still a bit big for kmalloc

- given that many devices have the partition count limit, so only
  allocate disk_max_parts() partitions instead of 256 partitions always

ARM: 7583/1: decompressor: Enable unaligned memory access for v6 and above

Modern GCC can generate code which makes use of the CPU's native
unaligned memory access capabilities.  This is useful for the C
decompressor implementations used for unpacking compressed kernels.

This patch disables alignment faults and enables the v6 unaligned
access model on CPUs which support these features (i.e., v6 and
later), allowing full unaligned access support for C code in the
decompressor.

The decompressor C code must not be built to assume that unaligned
access works if support for v5 or older platforms is included in
the kernel.

For correct code generation, C decompressor code must always use
the get_unaligned and put_unaligned accessors when dealing with
unaligned pointers, regardless of this patch.

Input: Send events one packet at a time

On heavy event loads, such as a multitouch driver, the irqsoff latency
can be as high as 250 us.  By accumulating a frame worth of data
before passing it on, the latency can be dramatically reduced.  As a
side effect, the special EV_SYN handling can be removed, since the
frame is now atomic.

This patch adds the events() handler callback and uses it if it
exists. The latency is improved by 50 us even without the callback.

Input: Improve the events-per-packet estimate

The events-per-packet estimate has so far been used by MT devices
only. This patch adjusts the packet buffer size to also accomodate the
KEY and MSC events.  Keyboards normally send one or two keys at a
time. MT devices normally send a number of button keys along with the
MT information.  The buffer size chosen here covers those cases, and
matches the default buffer size in evdev. Since the input estimate is
now preferred, remove the special input-mt estimate.

Change the logic which determines the initial readahead window size
such that for small requests (one page) the initial window size
will be x4 the size of the original request, regardless of the
VM_MAX_READAHEAD value. This prevents a rapid ramp-up
that could be caused due to increasing VM_MAX_READAHEAD.

Add runtime pm helper functions:

  - Initialization function for drivers to call.

int blk_pre_runtime_suspend(struct request_queue *q)
  - If any requests are in the queue, mark last busy and return -EBUSY.
    Otherwise set q->rpm_status to RPM_SUSPENDING and return 0.

void blk_post_runtime_suspend(struct request_queue *q, int err)
  - If the suspend succeeded then set q->rpm_status to RPM_SUSPENDED.
    Otherwise set it to RPM_ACTIVE and mark last busy.

void blk_pre_runtime_resume(struct request_queue *q)
  - Set q->rpm_status to RPM_RESUMING.

void blk_post_runtime_resume(struct request_queue *q, int err)
  - If the resume succeeded then set q->rpm_status to RPM_ACTIVE
    and call __blk_run_queue, then mark last busy and autosuspend.
    Otherwise set q->rpm_status to RPM_SUSPENDED.
