ARM: 7653/2: do not scale loops_per_jiffy when using a constant delay clock

When udelay() is implemented using an architected timer, it is wrong
to scale loops_per_jiffy when changing the CPU clock frequency since
the timer clock remains constant.

The lpj should probably become an implementation detail relevant to
the CPU loop based delay routine only and more confined to it. In the
mean time this is the minimal fix needed to have expected delays with
the timer based implementation when cpufreq is also in use.

ARM: 7685/1: delay: use private ticks_per_jiffy field for timer-based delay ops

Commit 70264367a243 ("ARM: 7653/2: do not scale loops_per_jiffy when
using a constant delay clock") fixed a problem with our timer-based
delay loop, where loops_per_jiffy is scaled by cpufreq yet used directly
by the timer delay ops.

This patch fixes the problem in a more elegant way by keeping a private
ticks_per_jiffy field in the delay ops, independent of loops_per_jiffy
and therefore not subject to scaling. The loop-based delay continues to
use loops_per_jiffy directly, as it should.

tick: Upstream fixes

 * Addresses the issue of timers being scheduled on offline CPUs.

tick: Don't invoke tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() if the cpu is offline

commit 5b39939a4 (nohz: Move ts->idle_calls incrementation into strict
idle logic) moved code out of tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() and missed
to bail out when the cpu is offline. That's causing subsequent
failures as an offline CPU is supposed to die and not to fiddle with
nohz magic.

Return false in can_stop_idle_tick() if the cpu is offline.

timers: Add accounting of non deferrable timers

The code in get_next_timer_interrupt() is suboptimal as it has to run
through the cascade to find the next expiring timer. On a completely
idle core we should only do that when there is an active timer
enqueued and base->next_timer does not give us a fast answer.

Add accounting of the active timers to the now consolidated
attach/detach code. I deliberately avoided sanity checks because the
code is fully symetric and any fiddling with timers w/o using the API
functions will lead to cute explosions anyway. ulong is big enough
even on 32bit and if we really run into the situation to have more
than 1<<32 timers enqueued there, then we are definitely not in a
state to go idle and run through that code.

This allows us to fix another shortcoming of get_next_timer_interrupt().

timers: Improve get_next_timer_interrupt()

Gilad reported at

 http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1336056962-10465-2-git-send-email-gilad@benyossef.com

"Current timer code fails to correctly return a value meaning that
 there is no future timer event, with the result that the timer keeps
 getting re-armed in HZ one shot mode even when we could turn it off,
 generating unneeded interrupts.

 What is happening is that when __next_timer_interrupt() wishes
 to return a value that signifies "there is no future timer
 event", it returns (base->timer_jiffies + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA).

 However, the code in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(), which called
 __next_timer_interrupt() via get_next_timer_interrupt(),
 compares the return value to (last_jiffies + NEXT_TIMER_MAX_DELTA)
 to see if the timer needs to be re-armed.

 base->timer_jiffies != last_jiffies and so tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
 interperts the return value as indication that there is a distant
 future event 12 days from now and programs the timer to fire next
 after KTIME_MAX nsecs instead of avoiding to arm it. This ends up
 causing a needless interrupt once every KTIME_MAX nsecs."

Fix this by using the new active timer accounting. This avoids scans
when no active timer is enqueued completely, so we don't have to rely
on base->timer_next and base->timer_jiffies anymore.

* Don't dereference timer->base directly even if

timekeeping: utilize the suspend-nonstop clocksource to count suspended time

There are some new processors whose TSC clocksource won't stop during
suspend. Currently, after system resumes, kernel will use persistent
clock or RTC to compensate the sleep time, but with these nonstop
clocksources, we could skip the special compensation from external
sources, and just use current clocksource for time recounting.

This can solve some time drift bugs caused by some not-so-accurate or
error-prone RTC devices.

The current way to count suspended time is first try to use the persistent
clock, and then try the RTC if persistent clock can't be used. This
patch will change the trying order to:
	suspend-nonstop clocksource -> persistent clock -> RTC

When counting the sleep time with nonstop clocksource, use an accurate way
suggested by Jason Gunthorpe to cover very large delta cycles.

clocksource: arm_arch_timer: Use clocksource for suspend timekeeping

The ARM architected timers keep counting during suspend so we can
mark this clocksource with the CLOCK_SOURCE_SUSPEND_NONSTOP. This
flag will indicate that this clocksource can be used for
calculating suspend time and injecting sleep time into the
timekeeping core. This will usually be more accurate than using
an external RTC or architecture specific persistent clock.

msm: pm-8x60: Fix suspend time tracking

Calls to sched_clock() after syscore devices have been suspend
will return the same value until the syscored devices are
resumed. Furthermore, the value won't jump forward to account for
the time left in suspend so we can't use it to calculate how much
time we spent in suspend.

We could expose the hardware directly to the pm code but it's
better to use generic interfaces. Move to using the timekeeping
APIs to determine how long we were in suspend. Unfortunately, we
can't use the timekeeping APIs this early in the resume path, so
we must read the current time of day before we suspend the
timekeeping core and after we resume the timekeeping core. Move
the calls to the suspend_late() and wake() callbacks so we can
properly read the amount of suspend time.

This issue was always seen in the context of "ksoftirqd". It seems to
be happening because of a potential race condition in __kthread_parkme
where just after completing the parked completion, before the
ksoftirqd task has been scheduled again, it can go into running state.

Fix this by waiting for the task state to parked after waiting the
parked completion.

kthread: introduce to_live_kthread()

"k->vfork_done != NULL" with a barrier() after to_kthread(k) in
task_get_live_kthread(k) looks unclear, and sub-optimal because we load

All we need is to ensure that we do not return to_kthread(NULL).  Add a
new trivial helper which loads/checks ->vfork_done once, this also looks
more understandable.

kthread: kill task_get_live_kthread()

task_get_live_kthread() looks confusing and unneeded.  It does
get_task_struct() but only kthread_stop() needs this, it can be called
even if the calller doesn't have a reference when we know that this
kthread can't exit until we do kthread_stop().

kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() do not need get_task_struct(), the
callers already have the reference.  And it can not help if we can race
with the exiting kthread anyway, kthread_park() can hang forever in this
case.

Change kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() to use to_live_kthread(),
change kthread_stop() to do get_task_struct() by hand and remove
task_get_live_kthread().

kthread: implement probe_kthread_data()

One of the problems that arise when converting dedicated custom threadpool
to workqueue is that the shared worker pool used by workqueue anonimizes
each worker making it more difficult to identify what the worker was doing
on which target from the output of sysrq-t or debug dump from oops, BUG()
and friends.

For example, after writeback is converted to use workqueue instead of
priviate thread pool, there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, which,
according to our writeback brethren, is important in tracking down issues
with a lot of mounted file systems on a lot of different devices.

This patchset implements a way for a work function to mark its execution
instance so that task dump of the worker task includes information to
indicate what the work item was doing.

An example WARN dump would look like the following.

This patch:

Implement probe_kthread_data() which returns kthread_data if accessible.
The function is equivalent to kthread_data() except that the specified
@task may not be a kthread or its vfork_done is already cleared rendering
struct kthread inaccessible.  In the former case, probe_kthread_data() may
return any value.  In the latter, NULL.

This will be used to safely print debug information without affecting
synchronization in the normal paths.  Workqueue debug info printing on
dump_stack() and friends will make use of it.
