5beb493052 mm: change anon_vma linking to fix multi-process server scalability issue
The old anon_vma code can lead to scalability issues with heavily forking
workloads.  Specifically, each anon_vma will be shared between the parent
process and all its child processes.

In a workload with 1000 child processes and a VMA with 1000 anonymous
pages per process that get COWed, this leads to a system with a million
anonymous pages in the same anon_vma, each of which is mapped in just one
of the 1000 processes.  However, the current rmap code needs to walk them
all, leading to O(N) scanning complexity for each page.

This can result in systems where one CPU is walking the page tables of
1000 processes in page_referenced_one, while all other CPUs are stuck on
the anon_vma lock.  This leads to catastrophic failure for a benchmark
like AIM7, where the total number of processes can reach in the tens of
thousands.  Real workloads are still a factor 10 less process intensive
than AIM7, but they are catching up.

This patch changes the way anon_vmas and VMAs are linked, which allows us
to associate multiple anon_vmas with a VMA.  At fork time, each child
process gets its own anon_vmas, in which its COWed pages will be
instantiated.  The parents' anon_vma is also linked to the VMA, because
non-COWed pages could be present in any of the children.

This reduces rmap scanning complexity to O(1) for the pages of the 1000
child processes, with O(N) complexity for at most 1/N pages in the system.
 This reduces the average scanning cost in heavily forking workloads from
O(N) to 2.

The only real complexity in this patch stems from the fact that linking a
VMA to anon_vmas now involves memory allocations.  This means vma_adjust
can fail, if it needs to attach a VMA to anon_vma structures.  This in
turn means error handling needs to be added to the calling functions.

A second source of complexity is that, because there can be multiple
anon_vmas, the anon_vma linking in vma_adjust can no longer be done under
"the" anon_vma lock.  To prevent the rmap code from walking up an
incomplete VMA, this patch introduces the VM_LOCK_RMAP VMA flag.  This bit
flag uses the same slot as the NOMMU VM_MAPPED_COPY, with an ifdef in mm.h
to make sure it is impossible to compile a kernel that needs both symbolic
values for the same bitflag.

Some test results:

Without the anon_vma changes, when AIM7 hits around 9.7k users (on a test
box with 16GB RAM and not quite enough IO), the system ends up running
>99% in system time, with every CPU on the same anon_vma lock in the
pageout code.

With these changes, AIM7 hits the cross-over point around 29.7k users.
This happens with ~99% IO wait time, there never seems to be any spike in
system time.  The anon_vma lock contention appears to be resolved.

d868080d2a [IA64] Only build arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.o when CONFIG_ACPI
The following commit broke the ia64 sim_defconfig build:
	3b2b84c0b81108a9a869a88bf2beeb5a95d81dd1
	ACPI: processor: driver doesn't need to evaluate _PDC

This is because it added:
	+#include <acpi/processor.h>

To arch/ia64/kernel/acpi.c. Unfortunately, the ia64_simdefconfig does
not turn on CONFIG_ACPI, and we get build errors.

The fix described in $subject seems to be the most sensible way to
untangle the mess.

The other issue is that acpi_get_sysname() is required for all configs,
most of which define CONFIG_ACPI, but are not CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC. Turn
it into an inline to cover the "non generic" ia64 configs; to prevent
a duplicate definition build error, we need to wrap the definition in
acpi.o inside an #ifdef.

Finally, move the pm_idle and pm_power_off exports into process.c (which
is always built), similar to other architectures, and allow the sim
defconfig to link.

7bc5e3f2be x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info by default on 2008 and newer machines
The main benefit of using ACPI host bridge window information is that
we can do better resource allocation in systems with multiple host bridges,
e.g., http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14183

Sometimes we need _CRS information even if we only have one host bridge,
e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341681

Most of these systems are relatively new, so this patch turns on
"pci=use_crs" only on machines with a BIOS date of 2008 or newer.

2fe2abf896 PCI: augment bus resource table with a list
Previously we used a table of size PCI_BUS_NUM_RESOURCES (16) for resources
forwarded to a bus by its upstream bridge.  We've increased this size
several times when the table overflowed.

But there's no good limit on the number of resources because host bridges
and subtractive decode bridges can forward any number of ranges to their
secondary buses.

This patch reduces the table to only PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCE_NUM (4) entries,
which corresponds to the number of windows a PCI-to-PCI (3) or CardBus (4)
bridge can positively decode.  Any additional resources, e.g., PCI host
bridge windows or subtractively-decoded regions, are kept in a list.

I'd prefer a single list rather than this split table/list approach, but
that requires simultaneous changes to every architecture.  This approach
only requires immediate changes where we set up (a) host bridges with more
than four windows and (b) subtractive-decode P2P bridges, and we can
incrementally change other architectures to use the list.

4b3073e1c5 MM: Pass a PTE pointer to update_mmu_cache() rather than the PTE itself
On VIVT ARM, when we have multiple shared mappings of the same file
in the same MM, we need to ensure that we have coherency across all
copies.  We do this via make_coherent() by making the pages
uncacheable.

This used to work fine, until we allowed highmem with highpte - we
now have a page table which is mapped as required, and is not available
for modification via update_mmu_cache().

Ralf Beache suggested getting rid of the PTE value passed to
update_mmu_cache():

  On MIPS update_mmu_cache() calls __update_tlb() which walks pagetables
  to construct a pointer to the pte again.  Passing a pte_t * is much
  more elegant.  Maybe we might even replace the pte argument with the
  pte_t?

Ben Herrenschmidt would also like the pte pointer for PowerPC:

  Passing the ptep in there is exactly what I want.  I want that
  -instead- of the PTE value, because I have issue on some ppc cases,
  for I$/D$ coherency, where set_pte_at() may decide to mask out the
  _PAGE_EXEC.

So, pass in the mapped page table pointer into update_mmu_cache(), and
remove the PTE value, updating all implementations and call sites to
suit.

Includes a fix from Stephen Rothwell:

Just a small change to a couple of scripts to go from

to

 #!/usr/bin/python

This shouldn't effect anyone, unless they don't install python there.

In preparation for python3, Fedora is doing a big push to change the scripts
to use the system python.  This allows developers to put the python3 in
their path without fear of breaking existing scripts.

Now I am pretty sure anyone using python3 for testing purposes will probably
not run any of the scripts I changed, but Fedora has this automated tool
that checks for this stuff so I thought I would try to push it upstream.

3a4d5c94e9 vhost_net: a kernel-level virtio server
What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.

There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
  migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)

common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear.  I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.

What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.

How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device.  Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.

Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.

Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use

Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item.  The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

it is used similarly.

It's possible that SBA IOMMU might fail to find I/O space under heavy
I/Os.  SBA IOMMU panics on allocation failure but it shouldn't; drivers
can handle the failure.  The majority of other IOMMU drivers don't panic
on allocation failure.

This patch fixes SBA IOMMU path to handle allocation failure properly.

9ee27c7639 [IA64] Save I-resources to ia64_sal_os_state
This is a patch related to this discussion.
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-ia64/msg07605.html

When INIT is sent, ip/psr/pfs register is stored to the I-resources
(iip/ipsr/ifs registers), and they are copied in the min-state save
area(pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}).

Therefore, in creating pt_regs at ia64_mca_modify_original_stack(),
cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs} should be derived from pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}. But
current code copies pmsa_{xip,xpsr,xfs} to cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs}
when PSR.ic is 0.

finish_pt_regs(struct pt_regs *regs, const pal_min_state_area_t *ms,
                unsigned long *nat)
{
(snip)
        if (ia64_psr(regs)->ic) {
                regs->cr_iip = ms->pmsa_iip;
                regs->cr_ipsr = ms->pmsa_ipsr;
                regs->cr_ifs = ms->pmsa_ifs;
        } else {
                regs->cr_iip = ms->pmsa_xip;
                regs->cr_ipsr = ms->pmsa_xpsr;
                regs->cr_ifs = ms->pmsa_xfs;
        }

It's ok when PSR.ic is not 0. But when PSR.ic is 0, this could be
a problem when we investigate kernel as the value of regs->cr_iip does
not point to where INIT really interrupted.

At first I tried to change finish_pt_regs() so that it uses always
pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs} for cr_{iip,ipsr,ifs}, but Keith Owens pointed out
it could cause another problem if I change it.

>The only problem I can think of is an MCA/INIT
>arriving while code like SAVE_MIN or SAVE_REST is executing.  Back
>tracing at that point using pmsa_iip is going to be a problem, you have
>no idea what state the registers or stack are in.

I confirmed he was right, so I decided to keep it as-is and to
save pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs} to ia64_sal_os_state for debugging.

An attached patch is just adding new members into ia64_sal_os_state to
save pmsa_{iip,ipsr,ifs}.

09b366b78c [IA64] preallocate IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR
Previously, we tried to use IA64_DEF_FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR (0x30) as the
IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR.  However, we allocate other IRQs from the device
vector range, so there's no guarantee that IA64_DEF_FIRST_DEVICE_VECTOR
will still be available when we register IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR.

This patch statically allocates 0x30 for IA64_IRQ_MOVE_VECTOR and
removes it from the device vector range.

Without this patch, we crash on machines like the HP rx3600 that use
vector 48 (0x30) as the ACPI SCI interrupt:

445c89514b locking: Convert raw_spinlock to arch_spinlock
The raw_spin* namespace was taken by lockdep for the architecture
specific implementations. raw_spin_* would be the ideal name space for
the spinlocks which are not converted to sleeping locks in preempt-rt.

Linus suggested to convert the raw_ to arch_ locks and cleanup the
name space instead of using an artifical name like core_spin,
atomic_spin or whatever

The comment in there used to be true, but these days do_brk() does
the arch-specific check that covers what we open-coded here.  So we

after it.

See commit 3a45975681 - that's when the
checks in do_brk() had been originally added.

10474ae894 KVM: Activate Virtualization On Demand
X86 CPUs need to have some magic happening to enable the virtualization
extensions on them. This magic can result in unpleasant results for
users, like blocking other VMMs from working (vmx) or using invalid TLB
entries (svm).

Currently KVM activates virtualization when the respective kernel module
is loaded. This blocks us from autoloading KVM modules without breaking
other VMMs.

To circumvent this problem at least a bit, this patch introduces on
demand activation of virtualization. This means, that instead
virtualization is enabled on creation of the first virtual machine
and disabled on destruction of the last one.

So using this, KVM can be easily autoloaded, while keeping other
hypervisors usable.

2d4dc890b5 block: add helpers to run flush_dcache_page() against a bio and a request's pages
Mtdblock driver doesn't call flush_dcache_page for pages in request.  So,
this causes problems on architectures where the icache doesn't fill from
the dcache or with dcache aliases.  The patch fixes this.

The ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE symbol was introduced to avoid
pointless empty cache-thrashing loops on architectures for which
flush_dcache_page() is a no-op.  Every architecture was provided with this
flush pages on architectires where ARCH_IMPLEMENTS_FLUSH_DCACHE_PAGE is
equal 1 or do nothing otherwise.

See "fix mtd_blkdevs problem with caches on some architectures" discussion
on LKML for more information.

This causes user space observerable time warps:
new CLOCK-warp maximum: 120 nsecs,  00000025c337c537 -> 00000025c337c4bf

Add a new argument "mult" to update_vsyscall() and hand in the

ac1aa47b13 PCI: determine CLS more intelligently
Till now, CLS has been determined either by arch code or as
L1_CACHE_BYTES.  Only x86 and ia64 set CLS explicitly and x86 doesn't
always get it right.  On most configurations, the chance is that
firmware configures the correct value during boot.

This patch makes pci_init() determine CLS by looking at what firmware
has configured.  It scans all devices and if all non-zero values
agree, the value is used.  If none is configured or there is a
disagreement, pci_dfl_cache_line_size is used.  arch can set the dfl
value (via PCI_CACHE_LINE_BYTES or pci_dfl_cache_line_size) or
override the actual one.

ia64, x86 and sparc64 updated to set the default cls instead of the
actual one.

While at it, declare pci_cache_line_size and pci_dfl_cache_line_size

dd17c8f729 percpu: remove per_cpu__ prefix.
Now that the return from alloc_percpu is compatible with the address
of per-cpu vars, it makes sense to hand around the address of per-cpu
variables.  To make this sane, we remove the per_cpu__ prefix we used
created to stop people accidentally using these vars directly.

Now we have sparse, we can use that (next patch).

tj: * Updated to convert stuff which were missed by or added after the
      original patch.

    * Kill per_cpu_var() macro.

a2e2725541 net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscall
Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
net stack entry/exit operations.

Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.

This takes into account comments made by:

. Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
  sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.

. Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
  works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.

  If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
  will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
  one) it has received so far.

. Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
  datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
  the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
  in the next call.

This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
every underlying recvmsg call.

3b885787ea net: Generalize socket rx gap / receive queue overflow cmsg
Create a new socket level option to report number of queue overflows

Recently I augmented the AF_PACKET protocol to report the number of frames lost
on the socket receive queue between any two enqueued frames.  This value was
exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg.  AFter I completed that work it was
requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket
could make use of this option.  As such I've created this patch, It creates a
new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a
SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue
overflowed between any two given frames.  It also augments the AF_PACKET
protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch
sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count).  Tested
successfully by me.

Notes:

1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which
is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops.
Deltas must be computed in user space.

2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will
also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats
agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those
protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero,
and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those
non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me.  This also saves us having
to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism.

3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit
977750076d (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted

52594762a3 ia64: convert to dynamic percpu allocator
Unlike other archs, ia64 reserves space for percpu areas during early
memory initialization.  These areas occupy a contiguous region indexed
by cpu number on contiguous memory model or are grouped by node on
discontiguous memory model.

As allocation and initialization are done by the arch code, all that
setup_per_cpu_areas() needs to do is communicating the determined
layout to the percpu allocator.  This patch implements
setup_per_cpu_areas() for both contig and discontig memory models and
drops HAVE_LEGACY_PER_CPU_AREA.

Please note that for contig model, the allocation itself is modified
only to allocate for possible cpus instead of NR_CPUS.  As dynamic
percpu allocator can handle non-direct mapping, there's no reason to
allocate memory for cpus which aren't possible.

36886478f5 ia64: allocate percpu area for cpu0 like percpu areas for other cpus
cpu0 used special percpu area reserved by the linker, __cpu0_per_cpu,
which is set up early in boot by head.S.  However, this doesn't
guarantee that the area will be on the same node as cpu0 and the
percpu area for cpu0 ends up very far away from percpu areas for other
cpus which cause problems for congruent percpu allocator.

This patch makes percpu area initialization allocate percpu area for
cpu0 like any other cpus and copy it from __cpu0_per_cpu which now
resides in the __init area.  This means that for cpu0, percpu area is
first setup at __cpu0_per_cpu early by head.S and then moved to an
area in the linear mapping during memory initialization and it's not
allowed to take a pointer to percpu variables between head.S and
memory initialization.

12cda81777 ia64: initialize cpu maps early
All information necessary to initialize cpu possible and present maps
are available once early_acpi_boot_init() is complete.  Reorganize
setup_arch() and acpi init functions such that,

* CPU information is printed after LAPIC entries are parsed in
  early_acpi_boot_init().

* smp_build_cpu_map() is called by setup_arch() instead of acpi
  functions.

* smp_build_cpu_map() is called once all CPU related information is
  available before memory is initialized.

This is primarily to allow find_memory() to use cpu maps but is also a
general cleanup.  Please note that with this change, the somewhat
ad-hoc early_cpu_possible_map defined and used for NUMA configurations
is probably unnecessary.  Something to clean up another day.

126b3fcdec ia64: don't alias VMALLOC_END to vmalloc_end
If CONFIG_VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP is enabled, ia64 defines macro VMALLOC_END
as unsigned long variable vmalloc_end which is adjusted to prepare
room for vmemmap.  This becomes probnlematic if a local variables
vmalloc_end is defined in some function (not very unlikely) and
VMALLOC_END is used in the function - the function thinks its
referencing the global VMALLOC_END value but would be referencing its
own local vmalloc_end variable.

There's no reason VMALLOC_END should be a macro.  Just define it as an
unsigned long variable if CONFIG_VIRTUAL_MEM_MAP is set to avoid nasty
surprises.

2c86963b09 [IA64] implement ticket locks for Itanium
Back in January 2008 Nick Piggin implemented "ticket" spinlocks
for X86 (See commit 314cdbefd1).

IA64 implementation has a couple of differences because of the
available atomic operations ... e.g. we have no fetchadd2 instruction
that operates on a 16-bit quantity so we make ticket locks use
a 32-bit word for each of the current ticket and now-serving values.

Performance on uncontended locks is about 8% worse than the previous
implementation, but this seems a good trade for determinism in the
contended case. Performance impact on macro-level benchmarks is in
the noise.

	- range of vmalloc area
	- text, etc...

are registered but "range of physical memory" has some troubles.  It
doesn't updated at memory hotplug and it tend to include unnecessary
memory holes.  Now, /proc/iomem (kernel/resource.c) includes required
physical memory range information and it's properly updated at memory
hotplug.  Then, it's good to avoid using its own code(duplicating
information) and to rebuild kclist for physical memory based on
/proc/iomem.

9492587cf3 kcore: register text area in generic way
Some 64bit arch has special segment for mapping kernel text.  It should be
entried to /proc/kcore in addtion to direct-linear-map, vmalloc area.
This patch unifies KCORE_TEXT entry scattered under x86 and ia64.

I'm not familiar with other archs (mips has its own even after this patch)
but range of [_stext ..._end) is a valid area of text and it's not in
direct-map area, defining CONFIG_ARCH_PROC_KCORE_TEXT is only a necessary
thing to do.

Note: I left mips as it is now.

a0614da88b kcore: register vmalloc area in generic way
For /proc/kcore, vmalloc areas are registered per arch.  But, all of them
registers same range of [VMALLOC_START...VMALLOC_END) This patch unifies
them.  By this.  archs which have no kclist_add() hooks can see vmalloc
area correctly.

c30bb2a25f kcore: add kclist types
Presently, kclist_add() only eats start address and size as its arguments.
Considering to make kclist dynamically reconfigulable, it's necessary to
know which kclists are for System RAM and which are not.

This patch add kclist types as
  KCORE_RAM
  KCORE_VMALLOC
  KCORE_TEXT
  KCORE_OTHER

This "type" is used in a patch following this for detecting KCORE_RAM.

90f72aa58b mm: add MAP_HUGETLB for mmaping pseudo-anonymous huge page regions
Add a flag for mmap that will be used to request a huge page region that
will look like anonymous memory to user space.  This is accomplished by
using a file on the internal vfsmount.  MAP_HUGETLB is a modifier of
MAP_ANONYMOUS and so must be specified with it.  The region will behave
the same as a MAP_ANONYMOUS region using small pages.

The patch also adds the MAP_STACK flag, which was previously defined only
on some architectures but not on others.  Since MAP_STACK is meant to be a
hint only, architectures can define it without assigning a specific
meaning to it.

caa27b66bd kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script
Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62fa
  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

* one asks for more than one ate
* there are some available at the end of ate array
then the inner for loop will end without incrementing 'index'. This
means the outer loop will start at the same point finding it's available
and runs the inner loop again from the same index. This repeats forever.

Hence make sure we check we were at the end of ate array and return

Peter pointed out that this is better done via newidle_idx,
not via LB_BIAS, newidle balancing should look for where
there is load _now_, not where there was load 2 ticks ago.

Worst-case latencies are improved as well as no buddies
means less vruntime spread. (as per prior lkml discussions)

This change improves kbuild-peak parallelism as well.

78e7ed53c9 sched: Tweak wake_idx
When merging select_task_rq_fair() and sched_balance_self() we lost
the use of wake_idx, restore that and set them to 0 to make wake
balancing more aggressive.

c88d591089 sched: Merge select_task_rq_fair() and sched_balance_self()
The problem with wake_idle() is that is doesn't respect things like
cpu_power, which means it doesn't deal well with SMT nor the recent
RT interaction.

To cure this, it needs to do what sched_balance_self() does, which
leads to the possibility of merging select_task_rq_fair() and
sched_balance_self().

Modify sched_balance_self() to:

  - update_shares() when walking up the domain tree,
    (it only called it for the top domain, but it should
     have done this anyway), which allows us to remove
    this ugly bit from try_to_wake_up().

  - do wake_affine() on the smallest domain that contains
    both this (the waking) and the prev (the wakee) cpu for
    WAKE invocations.

Then use the top-down balance steps it had to replace wake_idle().

This leads to the dissapearance of SD_WAKE_BALANCE and
SD_WAKE_IDLE_FAR, with SD_WAKE_IDLE replaced with SD_BALANCE_WAKE.

SD_WAKE_AFFINE needs SD_BALANCE_WAKE to be effective.

Touch all topology bits to replace the old with new SD flags --
platforms might need re-tuning, enabling SD_BALANCE_WAKE
conditionally on a NUMA distance seems like a good additional
feature, magny-core and small nehalem systems would want this
enabled, systems with slow interconnects would not.
