Since we moved wakeup preemption back to virtual time, it makes sense to move
the buddy stuff back as well. The purpose of the buddy scheduling is to allow
a quickly scheduling pair of tasks to run away from the group as far as a
regular busy task would be allowed under wakeup preemption.
This has the advantage that the pair can ping-pong for a while, enjoying
cache-hotness. Without buddy scheduling other tasks would interleave destroying
the cache.
Also, it saves a word in cfs_rq.

The advantage is that vruntime based wakeup preemption has a better
conceptual model. Here wakeup_gran = 0 means: preempt when 'fair'.
Therefore wakeup_gran is the granularity of unfairness we allow in order
to make progress.

Mike noticed the current min_vruntime tracking can go wrong and skip the
current task. If the only remaining task in the tree is a nice 19 task
with huge vruntime, new tasks will be inserted too far to the right too,
causing some interactibity issues.
min_vruntime can only change due to the leftmost entry disappearing
(dequeue_entity()), or by the leftmost entry being incremented past the
next entry, which elects a new leftmost (__update_curr())
Due to the current entry not being part of the actual tree, we have to
compare the leftmost tree entry with the current entry, and take the
leftmost of these two.
So create a update_min_vruntime() function that takes computes the
leftmost vruntime in the system (either tree of current) and increases
the cfs_rq->min_vruntime if the computed value is larger than the
previously found min_vruntime. And call this from the two sites we've
identified that can change min_vruntime.

The following patch fixes the regression in 2.6.27 that causes kernel
NULL pointer dereference at cpqphp driver probe time. This patch should
be backported to the .27 stable series.
Seems to have been introduced by
f46753c5e3.
The root cause of this problem seems that cpqphp driver calls
pci_hp_register() wrongly. In current implementation, cpqphp driver
passes 'ctrl->pci_dev->subordinate' as a second parameter for
pci_hp_register(). But because hotplug slots and it's hotplug controller
(exists as a pci funcion) are on the same bus, it should be
'ctrl->pci_dev->bus' instead.

This is not our bug! Sadly some devices cannot cope with the change
of TCP option ordering which was a result of the recent rewrite of
the option code (not that there was some particular reason steming
from the rewrite for the reordering) though any ordering of TCP
options is perfectly legal. Thus we restore the original ordering
to allow interoperability with/through such broken devices and add
some warning about this trap. Since the reordering just happened
without any particular reason, this change shouldn't cost us
anything.
There are already couple of known failure reports (within close
proximity of the last release), so the problem might be more
wide-spread than a single device. And other reports which may
be due to the same problem though the symptoms were less obvious.
Analysis of one of the case revealed (with very high probability)
that sack capability cannot be negotiated as the first option
(SYN never got a response).

This restores the old swiotlb alloc_coherent behavior (before the
alloc_coherent rewrite):
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/12/200
The old alloc_coherent avoids GFP_DMA allocation first and if the
allocated address is not fit for the device's coherent_dma_mask, then
dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA allocation. If it fails,
alloc_coherent calls swiotlb_alloc_coherent (in short, we rarely used
swiotlb_alloc_coherent).
After the alloc_coherent rewrite, dma_alloc_coherent
(include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) directly calls swiotlb_alloc_coherent.
It means that we possibly can't handle a device having dma_masks >
24bit < 32bits since swiotlb_alloc_coherent doesn't have the above
GFP_DMA retry mechanism.
This patch fixes x86's swiotlb alloc_coherent to use the GFP_DMA retry
mechanism, which dma_generic_alloc_coherent() provides now
(pci-nommu.c and GART IOMMU driver also use
dma_generic_alloc_coherent).

dma_alloc_coherent (include/asm-x86/dma-mapping.h) avoids GFP_DMA
allocation first and if the allocated address is not fit for the
device's coherent_dma_mask, then dma_alloc_coherent does GFP_DMA
allocation. This is because dma_alloc_coherent avoids precious GFP_DMA
zone if possible. This is also how the old dma_alloc_coherent
(arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c) works.
However, if the coherent_dma_mask of a device is 24bit, there is no
point to go into the above GFP_DMA retry mechanism. We had better use
GFP_DMA in the first place.

swiotlb_alloc_coherent calls panic() when allocated swiotlb pages is
not fit for a device's dma mask. However, alloc_coherent failure is
not a disaster at all. AFAIK, none of other x86 and IA64 IOMMU
implementations don't crash in case of alloc_coherent failure.
There are some drivers that don't check alloc_coherent failure but not
many (about ten and I've already started to fix some of
them). alloc_coherent returns NULL in case of failure so it's likely
that these guilty drivers crash immediately. So swiotlb doesn't need
to call panic() just for them.
