cpuidle: remove cross-cpu IPI by new latency request.

when drivers request new latency requirement, it's not necessary to
immediately wake up another cpu by sending cross-cpu IPI, we can consider
the new latency to be taken into effect after next wakeup from idle,
this can save the unnecessary wakeup cost, and reduce the risk that
drivers may request latency in irq disabled context.

cpuidle: remove unused hrtimer_peek_ahead_timers() call

     regression: disable timer peek-ahead for 2.6.28

     It's showing up as regressions; disabling it very likely just papers
     over an underlying issue, but time is running out for 2.6.28, lets get
     back to this for 2.6.29

 Many years has passed since 2008, so it seems ok to remove whole `#if 0' block.

cpuidle: add checks to avoid NULL pointer dereference

The existing check for dev == NULL in __cpuidle_register_device() is
rendered useless because dev is dereferenced before the check itself.
Moreover, correctly speaking, it is the job of the callers of this
function, i.e., cpuidle_register_device() & cpuidle_enable_device() (which
also happen to be exported functions) to ensure that
__cpuidle_register_device() is called with a non-NULL dev.

So add the necessary dev == NULL checks in the two callers and remove the
(useless) check from __cpuidle_register_device().

cpuidle: move field disable from per-driver to per-cpu

Andrew J.Schorr raises a question.  When he changes the disable setting on
a single CPU, it affects all the other CPUs.  Basically, currently, the
disable field is per-driver instead of per-cpu.  All the C states of the
same driver are shared by all CPU in the same machine.

The patch changes the `disable' field to per-cpu, so we could set this
separately for each cpu.

Analysis:
Commit 3d339dc (cpuidle / ACPI : move cpuidle_device field out of the
acpi_processor_power structure()) made the allocation of the dev structure
(struct cpuidle) of a CPU dynamic, whereas previously it was statically
allocated. And this dynamic allocation occurs in acpi_processor_power_init()
if pr->flags.power evaluates to non-zero.

On KVM guests, pr->flags.power evaluates to zero, hence dev is never
allocated. This causes the NULL pointer (dev) dereference in
cpuidle_disable_device() during a subsequent CPU online operation. Fix this
by ensuring that dev is non-NULL before dereferencing.

The function needs the cpuidle_device which is initially passed to the
caller.

The current code gets the struct device from the struct cpuidle_device,
pass it the cpuidle_add_sysfs function. This function calls
per_cpu(cpuidle_devices, cpu) to get the cpuidle_device.

This patch pass the cpuidle_device instead and simplify the code.

The "struct device" is only used in sysfs.c.

The other .c files including the private header "cpuidle.h"
do not need to pull the entire headers tree from there as they
don't manipulate the "struct device".

This patch fixes this by moving the header inclusion to sysfs.c
and adding a forward declaration for the struct device.

cpuidle: coupled: disable interrupts after entering safe state

Calling cpuidle_enter_state is expected to return with interrupts
enabled, but interrupts must be disabled before starting the
ready loop synchronization stage.  Call local_irq_disable after
each call to cpuidle_enter_state for the safe state.

cpuidle: coupled: abort idle if pokes are pending

Joseph Lo <josephl@nvidia.com> reported a lockup on Tegra20 caused
by a race condition in coupled cpuidle.  When two or more cpus
enter idle at the same time, the first cpus to arrive may go to the
ready loop without processing pending pokes from the last cpu to
arrive.

This patch adds a check for pending pokes once all cpus have been
synchronized in the ready loop and resets the coupled state and
retries if any cpus failed to handle their pending poke.

Retrying on all cpus may trigger the same issue again, so this patch
also adds a check to ensure that each cpu has received at least one
poke between when it enters the waiting loop and when it moves on to
the ready loop.

cpuidle: coupled: fix race condition between pokes and safe state

The coupled cpuidle waiting loop clears pending pokes before
entering the safe state.  If a poke arrives just before the
pokes are cleared, but after the while loop condition checks,
the poke will be lost and the cpu will stay in the safe state
until another interrupt arrives.  This may cause the cpu that
sent the poke to spin in the ready loop with interrupts off
until another cpu receives an interrupt, and if no other cpus
have interrupts routed to them it can spin forever.

Change the return value of cpuidle_coupled_clear_pokes to
return if a poke was cleared, and move the need_resched()
checks into the callers.  In the waiting loop, if
a poke was cleared restart the loop to repeat the while
condition checks.

ext4: Speedup WB_SYNC_ALL pass called from sync(2)

When doing filesystem wide sync, there's no need to force transaction
commit (or synchronously write inode buffer) separately for each inode
because ext4_sync_fs() takes care of forcing commit at the end (VFS
takes care of flushing buffer cache, respectively). Most of the time
this slowness doesn't manifest because previous WB_SYNC_NONE writeback
doesn't leave much to write but when there are processes aggressively
creating new files and several filesystems to sync, the sync slowness
can be noticeable. In the following test script sync(1) takes around 6
minutes when there are two ext4 filesystems mounted on a standard SATA
drive. After this patch sync takes a couple of seconds so we have about
two orders of magnitude improvement.

      function run_writers
      {
        for (( i = 0; i < 10; i++ )); do
          mkdir $1/dir$i
          for (( j = 0; j < 40000; j++ )); do
            dd if=/dev/zero of=$1/dir$i/$j bs=4k count=4 &>/dev/null
          done &
