Mike Travis 0bc3cc03fa cpumask: change cpumask_of_cpu_ptr to use new cpumask_of_cpu
* Replace previous instances of the cpumask_of_cpu_ptr* macros
    with a the new (lvalue capable) generic cpumask_of_cpu().

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 38ffbe66d5 x86/paravirt/xen: properly fill out the ldt ops
LTP testing showed that Xen does not properly implement
sys_modify_ldt().  This patch does the final little bits needed to
make the ldt work properly.

Mike Travis c42f4f4c6d cpumask: Optimize cpumask_of_cpu in arch/x86/kernel/ldt.c
* Optimize various places where a pointer to the cpumask_of_cpu value
    will result in reducing stack pressure.

Jens Axboe 8691e5a8f6 smp_call_function: get rid of the unused nonatomic/retry argument
It's never used and the comments refer to nonatomic and retry
interchangably. So get rid of it.

Cyrill Gorcunov fa0c864d99 x86: cleanup - eliminate numbers in LDT allocation code
This patch eliminates numbers in LDT allocation code
trying to make it clear to understand from where
these numbers come.

No code changed:

   1896       0       0    1896     768 ldt.o.before
   1896       0       0    1896     768 ldt.o.after
md5:

 6cbec8705008ddb4b704aade60bceda3  ldt.o.after.asm

Jan Beulich 4dbf7af644 x86: adjust/fix LDT handling for Xen
Based on patch from Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com>.

Don't rely on kmalloc(PAGE_SIZE) returning PAGE_SIZE aligned memory
(Xen requires GDT *and* LDT to be page-aligned). Using the page
allocator interface also removes the (albeit small) slab allocator
overhead. The same change being done for 64-bits for consistency.

Further, the Xen hypercall interface expects the LDT address to be
virtual, not machine.

[ Adjusted to unified ldt.c - Jeremy ]
