Now that all first chunk allocators are in mm/percpu.c, it makes sense
to make generalize percpu_alloc kernel parameter. Define PCPU_FC_*
and set pcpu_chosen_fc using early_param() in mm/percpu.c. Arch code
can use the set value to determine which first chunk allocator to use.

There's no need to build unused first chunk allocators in. Define
CONFIG_NEED_PER_CPU_*_FIRST_CHUNK and let archs enable them
selectively.

Conflicts in core and arch percpu codes are mostly from commit

num_possible_cpus() with nr_cpu_ids. As for-next branch has moved all
the first chunk allocators into mm/percpu.c, the changes are moved
from arch code to mm/percpu.c.

Update documentation for security_request_module to indicate
return value, as suggested by Serge Hallyn.
Signed-off-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
Calling request_module() will trigger a userspace upcall which will load a
new module into the kernel. This can be a dangerous event if the process
able to trigger request_module() is able to control either the modprobe
binary or the module binary. This patch adds a new security hook to
request_module() which can be used by an LSM to control a processes ability
to call request_module().

We can't call nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release() without
first initialising and referencing args.context. Doing so inside
nfs_direct_read_schedule_segment()/nfs_direct_write_schedule_segment()
causes an Oops.
We should rather be calling nfs_readdata_free()/nfs_writedata_free() in
those cases.
Looking at the O_DIRECT code, the "struct nfs_direct_req" is already
referencing the nfs_open_context for us. Since the readdata and writedata
structures carry a reference to that, we can simplify things by getting rid
of the extra nfs_open_context references, so that we can replace all
instances of nfs_readdata_release()/nfs_writedata_release().

Define the format of the syscall trace fields to parse the binary
values from a raw trace using the syscall events "format" file.
This is defined dynamically using the syscalls metadata.
It prepares the export of syscall event raw records to perf
counters.
Example:
$ cat /debug/tracing/events/syscalls/sys_enter_sched_getparam/format
name: sys_enter_sched_getparam
ID: 39
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4;
field:int common_tgid; offset:8; size:4;
field:pid_t pid; offset:12; size:8;
field:struct sched_param * param; offset:20; size:8;
print fmt: "pid: 0x%08lx, param: 0x%08lx", ((unsigned long)(REC->pid)), ((unsigned long)(REC->param))

Introduce a new 'DECLARE_TRACE_WITH_CALLBACK()' macro, so that
tracepoints can associate an external register/unregister function.
This prepares for the syscalls tracer conversion to trace events. We
will need to perform arch level operations once a syscall event is
turned on/off, such as TIF flags setting, hence the need of such
specific callbacks.

For events that are rare, such as referral DNS lookups, it makes limited
sense to have a daemon constantly listening for upcalls on a channel. An
alternative in those cases might simply be to run the app that fills the
cache using call_usermodehelper_exec() and friends.
The following patch allows the cache_detail to specify alternative upcall
mechanisms for these particular cases.
