ashmem: avoid deadlock between read and mmap calls

Avoid holding ashmem_mutex across code that can page fault.  Page faults
grab the mmap_sem for the process, which are also held by mmap calls
prior to calling ashmem_mmap, which locks ashmem_mutex.  The reversed
order of locking between the two can deadlock.

The calls that can page fault are read() and the ASHMEM_SET_NAME and
ASHMEM_GET_NAME ioctls.  Move the code that accesses userspace pages
outside the ashmem_mutex.

cpufreq: interactive: keep freezer happy when not current governor

Fix a problem where the hung task mechanism was deeming the interactive

module init but never run/woken up until needed.  If the governor is not
being used this can be forever.  To workaround this explicitly wake up

cpufreq: interactive: run at fraction of hispeed_freq when load is low

When load is below go_hispeed_load, apply the percentage of CPU load to
a max frequency of hispeed_freq instead of the max speed.  This avoids
jumping too quickly to hispeed_freq when it is a relatively low
percentage of max speed.  This also allows go_hispeed_load to be set to
a high percentage relative to hispeed_freq (as a percentage of max speed,
again useful when hispeed_freq is a low fraction of max speed), to cap
larger loads at hispeed_freq.  For example, a load of 60% will typically
move to 60% of hispeed_freq, not 60% of max speed.  This causes the
governor to apply two different speed caps, depending on whether load is
below or above go_hispeed_load.

Also fix the type of hispeed_freq, which was u64, to match other
speed data types (and avoid overhead and allow division).

To fix this issue, a read-write semaphore is used. Multiple readers are

moved to false only after taking a write semaphore which would wait for
any on-going asynchronous activities to complete and prevent any more of
those activities to be initiated.

This patch updates the ROW URGENT notification policy to apply with the
below:

- Don't notify URGENT if there is an un-completed URGENT request in driver
- After notifying that URGENT request is present, the next request
  dispatched is the URGENT one.
- At every given moment only 1 request can be marked as URGENT.
  Independent of it's location (driver or scheduler)

Other changes to URGENT policy:
- Only READ queues are allowed to notify of an URGENT request pending.

CR fix:
If a pending urgent request (A) gets merged with another request (B)
A is removed from scheduler queue but is not removed from
rd->pending_urgent_rq.

block: urgent request: remove unnecessary urgent marking

An urgent request is marked by the scheduler in rq->cmd_flags with the
REQ_URGENT flag. There is no need to add an additional marking by
the block layer.

block: row: Prevent starvation of regular priority by high priority

At the moment all REGULAR and LOW priority requests are starved as long as
there are HIGH priority requests to dispatch.
This patch prevents the above starvation by setting a starvation limit the
REGULAR\LOW priority requests can tolerate.

block: row: Update sysfs functions

All ROW (time related) configurable parameters are stored in ms so there
is no need to convert from/to ms when reading/updating them via sysfs.

block: urgent request: Update dispatch_urgent in case of requeue/reinsert

The block layer implements a mechanism for verifying that the device
driver won't be notified of an URGENT request if there is already an
URGENT request in flight. This is due to the fact that interrupting an
URGENT request isn't efficient.
This patch fixes the above described mechanism in case the URGENT request
was returned back to the block layer from some reason: by requeue or
reinsert.

block: row: Fix starvation tolerance values

The current starvation tolerance values increase the boot time
since high priority SW requests are delayed by regular priority requests.
In order to overcome this, increase the starvation tolerance values.
