The version of SLOB in -mm always scans its free list from the beginning,
which results in small allocations and free segments clustering at the
beginning of the list over time. This causes the average search to scan
over a large stretch at the beginning on each allocation.
By starting each page search where the last one left off, we evenly
distribute the allocations and greatly shorten the average search.
Without this patch, kernel compiles on a 1.5G machine take a large amount
of system time for list scanning. With this patch, compiles are within a
few seconds of performance of a SLAB kernel with no notable change in
system time.

After discussing w/ Thomas over IRC, it seems the issue is the sched tick
fires on every cpu at the same time, causing extra lock contention.
This smaller change, adds an extra offset per cpu so the ticks don't line up.
This patch also drops the idle latency from 40us down to under 20us.

This is an variation on the patch sent by Christoph Hellwig which kills
file_count abuse by the Coda kernel module by moving the coda_flush
functionality into coda_release. However part of reason we were using the
coda_flush callback was to allow Coda to pass errors that occur during
writeback from the userspace cache manager back to close().
As Al Viro explained on linux-fsdevel, it is impossible to guarantee that
such errors can in fact be returned back to the caller. There are many
cases where the last reference to a file is not released by the close
system call and it is also impossible to pick some close as a 'last-close'
and delay it until all other references have been destroyed.
The CODA_STORE/CODA_RELEASE upcall combination is clearly a broken design,
and it is better to remove it completely.

Trying to survive an allmodconfig on a nommu platform results in many
screen lengths of module unhappiness. Many of the mmap related things that
binfmt_flat hooks in to are never exported despite being global, and there
are also missing definitions for vmalloc_32_user() and vm_insert_page().
I've implemented vmalloc_32_user() trying to stick as close to the
mm/vmalloc.c implementation as possible, though we don't have any need for
VM_USERMAP, so groveling for the VMA can be skipped. vm_insert_page() has
been stubbed for now in order to keep the build happy.

If the swiotlb maps a multi-slab region, swiotlb_sync_single_range() can be
invoked to sync a sub-region which does not include the first slab.
Unfortunately io_tlb_orig_addr[] is only initialised for the first slab,
and hence the call to sync_single() will read a garbage orig_addr in this
case.
This patch fixes the issue by initialising all mapped slabs in
io_tlb_orig_addr[]. It also correctly adjusts the buffer pointer in
sync_single() to handle the case that the given dma_addr is not aligned on
a slab boundary.

Currently, bsg doesn't make class backlinks (a process whereby you'd get
a link to bsg in the device directory in the same way you get one for
sg). This is because the bsg device is uninitialised, so the class
device has nothing it can attach to. The fix is to make the bsg device
point to the cdevice of the entity creating the bsg, necessitating
changing the bsg_register_queue() prototype into a form that takes the
generic device.

The error handling code at err_wrid in create_qp_common() does not
handle a userspace QP attached to an SRQ correctly, since it ends up
in the else clause of the if statement. This means it tries to
kfree() the uninitialized qp->sq.wrid and qp->rq.wrid pointers. Fix
this so we only free the wrid arrays for kernel QPs.

The ipath_layer.[ch] code was an attempt to provide a single interface
for the ipath verbs and ipath_ether code to use. As verbs
functionality increased, the layer's functionality became insufficient
and the verbs code broke away to interface directly to the driver.
The failed attempt to get ipath_ether upstream was the final nail in
