kmalloc caches are statically defined and may take up a lot of space just
because the sizes of the node array has to be dimensioned for the largest
node count supported.
This patch makes the size of the kmem_cache structure dynamic throughout by
creating a kmem_cache slab cache for the kmem_cache objects. The bootstrap
occurs by allocating the initial one or two kmem_cache objects from the
page allocator.

ahci: fix module refcount breakage introduced by libahci split
libata depends on scsi_host_template for module reference counting and
sht's should be owned by each low level driver. During libahci split,
the sht was left with libahci.ko leaving the actual low level drivers
not reference counted. This made ahci and ahci_platform always
unloadable even while they're being actively used.
Fix it by defining AHCI_SHT() macro in ahci.h and defining a sht for

Fix that by adding a balancing check to the workqueue removal path.
x86: Avoid 'constant_test_bit()' misoptimization due to cast to non-volatile
While debugging bit_spin_lock() hang, it was tracked down to gcc-4.4
misoptimization of non-inlined constant_test_bit() due to non-volatile
addr when 'const volatile unsigned long *addr' cast to 'unsigned long *'
with subsequent unconditional jump to pause (and not to the test) leading
to hang.
Compiling with gcc-4.3 or disabling CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING yields inlined
constant_test_bit() and correct jump, thus working around the kernel bug.
Other arches than asm-x86 may implement this slightly differently;
2.6.29 mitigates the misoptimization by changing the function prototype
(commit c4295fbb6048d85f0b41c5ced5cbf63f6811c46c) but probably fixing the issue
itself is better.

net: fix a lockdep splat
We have for each socket :
One spinlock (sk_slock.slock)
One rwlock (sk_callback_lock)
Possible scenarios are :
(A) (this is used in net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c)
read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) (without blocking BH)
<BH>
spin_lock(&sk->sk_slock.slock);
...
read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock);
...
lockdep is not happy with this, as reported by Tetsuo Handa
It seems only way to deal with this is to use read_lock_bh(callbacklock)
everywhere.
Thanks to Jarek for pointing a bug in my first attempt and suggesting
this solution.

arch/tile: remove dead code from intvec_32.S
This "bpt_code" instruction was killed off in our development line a while
ago (the actual definition of bpt_code that is used is in kernel/traps.c)
but I didn't push it for 2.6.36 because it seemed harmless and I didn't
want to try to push more than absolutely necessary.
However, we recently fixed a bug in our gcc that had been causing
"-gdwarf2" not to be passed to the assembler, and passing this flag causes
an erroneous assembler failure in the presence of code in a data section,
sometimes. While we'd like to track down the bug in the assembler,
we'd also like to make sure 2.6.36 builds with the current toolchain,
so I'm removing this dead code as well.

Thomas Pollet points out that the 'end' variable is broken. It was
computed based on start/size before they were page-aligned, and as such
doesn't actually match any of the other actions we take. The overflow
test on end was also redundant, since we had already tested it with the
properly aligned version.
So just get rid of it entirely. The one remaining use for that broken
variable can just use 'start+size' like all the other cases already did.

x86/hwmon: register alternate sibling upon CPU removal
Just like pkgtemp registers another core of the same package when one
gets removed, coretemp should register another hyperthread (if
available) in that situation.
As pointed out in the patch fixing the respective code in pkgtemp, the
list protectng mutex must be dropped before calling
coretemp_device_add(), and due to the restructured loop (including an
explicit return) the "safe" variant of the list iterator isn't needed
anymore.
