When profiling a benchmark that is almost 100% userspace, I noticed some wildly
inaccurate profiles that showed almost all time spent in the kernel.
Closer examination shows we were programming a tiny number of cycles into the
PMU after each overflow (about ~200 away from the next overflow). This gets us
stuck in a loop which we eventually break out of by throttling the PMU (there
are regular throttle/unthrottle events in the log).
It looks like we aren't setting event->hw.last_period to something same and the
frequency to period calculations in perf are going haywire.
With the following patch we find the correct period after a few interrupts and
stay there. I also see no more throttle events.

Currently all filesystems except XFS implement fallocate asynchronously,
while XFS forced a commit. Both of these are suboptimal - in case of O_SYNC
I/O we really want our allocation on disk, especially for the !KEEP_SIZE
case where we actually grow the file with user-visible zeroes. On the
other hand always commiting the transaction is a bad idea for fast-path
uses of fallocate like for example in recent Samba versions. Given
that block allocation is a data plane operation anyway change it from
an inode operation to a file operation so that we have the file structure
available that lets us check for O_SYNC.
This also includes moving the code around for a few of the filesystems,
and remove the already unnedded S_ISDIR checks given that we only wire
up fallocate for regular files.

set_hae() static inline but for reasons described in commit d559d4a24a
this breaks the generic kernel build. Instead, since this is architecture
specific code, this patch hard wires in the architecture specific method
f disabling and enabling interrupts.

First, we were calling mc_stop() at the top of the function
which turns off all MC (memory controller) clients,
then checking if the GPU is idle. If it was idle we
returned without re-enabling the MC clients which would
lead to a blank screen, etc. This patch checks if the
GPU is idle before calling mc_stop().
Second, if the reset failed, we were returning without
re-enabling the MC clients. This patch re-enables
the MC clients before returning regardless of whether
the reset was successful or not.

pmdp_get_and_clear/pmdp_clear_flush/pmdp_splitting_flush were trapped as
BUG() and they were defined only to diminish the risk of build issues on
not-x86 archs and to be consistent with the generic pte methods previously
defined in include/asm-generic/pgtable.h.
But they are causing more trouble than they were supposed to solve, so
it's simpler not to define them when THP is off.
This is also correcting the export of pmdp_splitting_flush which is
currently unused (x86 isn't using the generic implementation in
mm/pgtable-generic.c and no other arch needs that [yet]).

Depending on link state change, IB_EVENT_PORT_ERR or
IB_EVENT_PORT_ACTIVE should be generated when handling MAC interrupts.
Plugging in a cable happens to result in series of interrupts changing
driver's link state a number of times before finally staying at link
up (e.g. link up, link down, link up, link down, ..., link up). To
prevent sending series of redundant IB_EVENT_PORT_ACTIVE and
IB_EVENT_PORT_ERR events, we use a timer to debounce them in
nes_port_ibevent().
