Running a `mount -o remount' against ext3 deadlocks if there is heavy
write activity.  It's a sort of AB/BA deadlock caused by calling
log_wait_commit() under lock_super().  The caller holds lock_super()
and is waiting for a commit, but the commit cannot complete because
lock_super() is also used in the block allocator.

The way we fixed this in tha past is to drop the superblock lock inside
ext3.  The way this patch fixes it is to arrange for lock_super() to
not be held around the ->sync_fs() call.

Also: sync_filesystems is on the sys_sync() path and is racy wrt
unmount.  Check sb->s_root after taking sb->s_umount.

 - set up kernel stack pointer for sysenter at each context switch.
 - disable sysenter while in vm86 mode.
 - clean up mtrr number defines and SEP feature testing

Don't disable PCI devices before changing the BARs, as discussed
recently.  Disabling PCI_COMMAND_MASTER bit is an obvious bug.

Further, pdev_enable_device() is a leftover from very old (2.0, I guess)
alpha PCI code.  It's used in pci_assign_unassigned_resources() to
enable *every* PCI device in the system.  So, if we have two graphic
cards on the same bus, both with legacy VGA IO...  oops.

Actually, only alpha relied on that due to the lack of
pcibios_enable_device (which has been already fixed).

This replaces the dynamically allocated two-level array in sys_poll with
a dynamically allocated linked list.  The current implementation causes
at least two alloc/free calls, even if only one or two descriptors are
polled.  This reduces that to one alloc/free, and the .text segment is
around 220 bytes shorter.  The microbenchmark that polls one pipe fd is
around 30% faster.  [1140 cycles instead of 1604 cycles, Celeron mobile

Description:
  everywhere the NFS client uses the req_offset() function today, it adds
  req->wb_offset to the result.  this patch simply makes "+req->wb_offset"
  a part of the req_offset() function.

Test status:
  Passes all Connectathon '02 tests with v2, v3, UDP and TCP.  Passes
  NFS torture tests on an x86 UP highmem system.

Description:
  The default set_page_dirty address space op is too heavyweight for NFS,
  which doesn't use buffers.

Description:
  andrew morton suggested there are places in the NFS client that could
  make use of kmap_atomic instead of vanilla kmap in order to improve
  scalability on 8-way and higher SMP systems.

Test status:
  Passes all Connectathon '02 tests with v2 and v3, UDP and TCP; passes
  NFS torture tests on a UP HIGHMEM x86 system.

This moves most of the duplicated text in the various v850 platform-
specific linker scripts (each of which was previously completely
standalone) into cpp macros in vmlinux.lds.S, which are then used by the
platform linker scripts as appropriate.  This should make the scripts a
lot easier to maintain.

Also, a number of linker-script bugs are fixed.

The old code seems completely wrong; I guess it was just left over from
whichever architecture this code was copied from.

These are used for the new in-kernel module loader (actually not all the
relocation types are used right now, but are included for completeness).

Only the EM_CYGNUS_V850 macro, which is in a global namespace, is added
to <linux/elf.h>; the relocation types, which are private to the v850,
are added to <asm-v850/elf.h>.  [Perhaps some other archs can do a
similar split, to reduce the bloat in <linux/elf.h>]

A few symbols are only defined when CONFIG_MMU=y, but are exported
(by kernel/ksyms.c) unconditionally.  This patch makes them conditional.

Adds extra includes needed because sched.h doesn't include them anymore,
and removes includes of sched.h where they're not really necessary.

Fix task->cpus_allowed bitmask truncations on 64.bit architectures.

pr_debug() is defined to print using KERN_DEBUG already,
so uses of it don't need to repeat KERN_DEBUG.
