Due to a merge conflict, the sched_relax_domain_level control file was marked
as being handled by cpuset_read/write_u64, but the code to handle it was
actually in cpuset_common_file_read/write.
Since the value being written/read is in fact a signed integer, it should be
treated as such; this patch adds cpuset_read/write_s64 functions, and uses
them to handle the sched_relax_domain_level file.
With this patch, the sched_relax_domain_level can be read and written, and the
correct contents seen/updated.

For e.g. proper TTY canonical support, IUTF8 termios flag has to be set as
appropriate. Linux used to not care about setting that flag for VT TTYs.
This patch fixes that by activating it according to the current mode of the
VT, and sets the default value according to the vt.default_utf8 parameter.

get_part() is fairly expensive, as it O(N) loops over partitions
to find the right one. In lots of normal IO paths we end up looking

Original patch from Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
Mike Anderson was doing an OLTP benchmark on a computer with 48 physical
disks mapped to one logical device via device mapper.
He found that there was a slowdown on request_queue->lock in function
generic_unplug_device. The slowdown is caused by the fact that when some
code calls unplug on the device mapper, device mapper calls unplug on all
physical disks. These unplug calls take the lock, find that the queue is
already unplugged, release the lock and exit.
With the below patch, performance of the benchmark was increased by 18%
(the whole OLTP application, not just block layer microbenchmarks).
So I'm submitting this patch for upstream. I think the patch is correct,
because when more threads call simultaneously plug and unplug, it is
unspecified, if the queue is or isn't plugged (so the patch can't make
this worse). And the caller that plugged the queue should unplug it
anyway. (if it doesn't, there's 3ms timeout).

generic_file_splice_write() duplicates remove_suid() just because it
doesn't hold i_mutex. But it grabs i_mutex inside splice_from_pipe()
anyway, so this is rather pointless.
Move locking to generic_file_splice_write() and call remove_suid() and
__splice_from_pipe() instead.

put_io_context() drops the RCU read lock before calling into cfq_dtor(),
however we need to hold off freeing there before grabbing and
dereferencing the first object on the list.
So extend the rcu_read_lock() scope to cover the calling of cfq_dtor(),
and optimize cfq_free_io_context() to use a new variant for
call_for_each_cic() that assumes the RCU read lock is already held.

For most initialization purposes, calling blk_queue_init_tags() without
the queue lock held is OK. Only if called for resizing an existing map
must the lock be held. Ditto for tag cleanup, the maps are reference
counted.
So switch the general queue flag setting to the unlocked variant, but
retain the locked variant for resizing.

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
This patch fixes a bug with cpu bound guest on kvm-s390. Sometimes it
was impossible to deliver a signal to a spinning guest. We used
preemption as a circumvention. The preemption notifiers called
vcpu_load, which checked for pending signals and triggered a host
intercept. But even with preemption, a sigkill was not delivered
immediately.
This patch changes the low level host interrupt handler to check for the
SIE instruction, if TIF_WORK is set. In that case we change the
instruction pointer of the return PSW to rerun the vcpu_run loop. The kvm
code sees an intercept reason 0 if that happens. This patch adds accounting
for these types of intercept as well.
The advantages:
- works with and without preemption
- signals are delivered immediately
- much better host latencies without preemption

On return from syscall or interrupt, we have to check if we return to
userspace (likely) and if there is work todo (less likely) to decide
if we handle the work. We can optimize this check: we first check for
the less likely work case and then check for userspace.
This patch is also a preparation for an additional patch, that fixes a bug
in KVM dealing with cpu bound guests.
