Impact: cleanup, avoid cpumask games
The APM code wants to run on CPU 0: we create an "on_cpu0" wrapper
which uses work_on_cpu() if we're not already on cpu 0.
This introduces a new failure mode: -ENOMEM, so we add an explicit
err arg and handle Linux-style errnos in apm_err().

Impact: Fix cpu offline when CONFIG_MAXSMP=y
Changeset bc9b83dd1f "cpumask: convert
c1e_mask in arch/x86/kernel/process.c to cpumask_var_t" contained a
bug: c1e_mask is manipulated even if C1E isn't detected (and hence
not allocated).
This is simply fixed by checking for NULL (which gcc optimizes out
anyway of CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n, since it knows ce1_mask can never
be NULL).
In addition, fix a leak where select_idle_routine re-allocates
(and re-clears) c1e_mask on every cpu init.

In order for ntpd to correctly synchronize the clocks, the frequency of
the system clock must not be off by more than 500 ppm (or, put another
way, 1:2000), or ntpd will end up giving up on trying to synchronize
properly, and ends up reseting the clock in jumps instead.
The fast TSC PIT calibration sometimes failed this test - it was
assuming that the PIT reads always took about one microsecond each (2us
for the two reads to get a 16-bit timer), and that calibrating TSC to
the PIT over 15ms should thus be sufficient to get much closer than
500ppm (max 2us error on both sides giving 4us over 15ms: a 270 ppm
error value).
However, that assumption does not always hold: apparently some hardware
is either very much slower at reading the PIT registers, or there was
other noise causing at least one machine to get 700+ ppm errors.
So instead of using a fixed 15ms timing loop, this changes the fast PIT
calibration to read the TSC delta over the individual PIT timer reads,
and use the result to calculate the error bars on the PIT read timing
properly. We then successfully calibrate the TSC only if the maximum
error bars fall below 500ppm.
In the process, we also relax the timing to allow up to 25ms for the
calibration, although it can happen much faster depending on hardware.

During bootup, when we reprogram the PIT (programmable interval timer)
to start counting down from 0xffff in order to use it for the fast TSC
calibration, we should also make sure to delay a bit afterwards to allow
the PIT hardware to actually start counting with the new value.
That will happens at the next CLK pulse (1.193182 MHz), so the easiest
way to do that is to just wait at least one microsecond after
programming the new PIT counter value. We do that by just reading the
counter value back once - which will take about 2us on PC hardware.

CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }
Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:
#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)
Which formalizes this practice. One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).
So replace everywhere which used &CPU_MASK_ALL or CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
with the modern "cpu_all_mask" (a real const struct cpumask *), and remove
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR altogether.

This reverts commit e088e4c9cd.
Removing the sysfs interface for p4-clockmod was flagged as a
regression in bug 12826.
Course of action:
- Find out the remaining causes of overheating, and fix them
if possible. ACPI should be doing the right thing automatically.
If it isn't, we need to fix that.
- mark p4-clockmod ui as deprecated
- try again with the removal in six months.
It's not really feasible to printk about the deprecation, because
it needs to happen at all the sysfs entry points, which means adding
a lot of strcmp("p4-clockmod".. calls to the core, which.. bleuch.

In uv_flush_tlb_others() (arch/x86/kernel/tlb_uv.c),
the "WARN_ON(!in_atomic())" fails if CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled.
And CONFIG_PREEMPT is not enabled by default in the distribution that
most UV owners will use.
We could #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT the warning, but that is not good form.
And there seems to be no suitable fix to in_atomic() when CONFIG_PREMPT
is not on.

In case a ptraced task is reaped (while the tracer is still attached),
ds_exit_thread() is called before ptrace_exit(). The latter will
release the bts_tracer and remove the thread's ds_ctx.
The former will WARN() if the context is not NULL.

Impact: fix relocation overflow during module load
x86_64 uses 32bit relocations for symbol access and static percpu
symbols whether in core or modules must be inside 2GB of the percpu
segement base which the dynamic percpu allocator doesn't guarantee.
This patch makes x86_64 reserve PERCPU_MODULE_RESERVE bytes in the
first chunk so that module percpu areas are always allocated from the
first chunk which is always inside the relocatable range.
This problem exists for any percpu allocator but is easily triggered
when using the embedding allocator because the second chunk is located
beyond 2GB on it.
This patch also changes the meaning of PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE such
that it only indicates the size of the area to reserve for dynamic
allocation as static and dynamic areas can be separate. New
PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVED is increased by 4k for both 32 and 64bits as
the reserved area separation eats away some allocatable space and
having slightly more headroom (currently between 4 and 8k after
minimal boot sans module area) makes sense for common case
performance.
x86_32 can address anywhere from anywhere and doesn't need reserving.
Mike Galbraith first reported the problem first and bisected it to the
embedding percpu allocator commit.

Impact: add reserved allocation functionality and use it for module
percpu variables
This patch implements reserved allocation from the first chunk. When
setting up the first chunk, arch can ask to set aside certain number
of bytes right after the core static area which is available only
through a separate reserved allocator. This will be used primarily
for module static percpu variables on architectures with limited
relocation range to ensure that the module perpcu symbols are inside
the relocatable range.
If reserved area is requested, the first chunk becomes reserved and
isn't available for regular allocation. If the first chunk also
includes piggy-back dynamic allocation area, a separate chunk mapping
the same region is created to serve dynamic allocation. The first one
is called static first chunk and the second dynamic first chunk.
Although they share the page map, their different area map
initializations guarantee they serve disjoint areas according to their
purposes.
If arch doesn't setup reserved area, reserved allocation is handled
like any other allocation.

Impact: reduce unnecessary memory usage on certain configurations
Embedding percpu allocator allocates unit_size *
smp_num_possible_cpus() bytes consecutively and use it for the first
chunk. However, if the static area is small, this can result in
excessive prellocated free space in the first chunk due to
PCPU_MIN_UNIT_SIZE restriction.
This patch makes embedding percpu allocator preallocate only what's
necessary as described by PERPCU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE and return the
leftover to the bootmem allocator.

Impact: argument semantic cleanup
In pcpu_setup_first_chunk(), zero @unit_size and @dyn_size meant

dynamic reserve size is valid. Alos, if arch @dyn_size is calculated
from other parameters, it might end up passing in 0 @dyn_size and
malfunction when the size is automatically adjusted.
This patch makes both @unit_size and @dyn_size ssize_t and use -1 for
auto sizing.
