Steve Hawkes discovered a problem where recalc_sigpending_tsk was called in
do_sigaction but no signal_wake_up call was made, preventing later signals
from waking up blocked threads with TIF_SIGPENDING already set.
In fact, the few other calls to recalc_sigpending_tsk outside the signals
code are also subject to this problem in other race conditions.
This change makes recalc_sigpending_tsk private to the signals code. It
changes the outside calls, as well as do_sigaction, to use the new
recalc_sigpending_and_wake instead.

There have been a number of instances where people have accidentally compiled
rcutorture into the kernel (CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST=y), which has never been
useful, and has often resulted in great frustration.
The attached patch prohibits rcutorture from being compiled into the
kernel. It may be excluded altogether or compiled as a module. People
wishing to have rcutorture hammer their machine immediately upon boot
are free to hand-edit lib/Kconfig.debug to remove the "depends on m"
line.
Thanks to Randy Dunlap for the trick that makes this work.

This patch fixes the race pointed out by Oleg Nesterov.
* Freezer marks a thread as freezeable.
* The thread now marks itself PF_NOFREEZE, but it will be frozen on
on calling try_to_freeze(). Thus the task is frozen, even though it doesn't
want to.
* Subsequent thaw_processes() will also fail to thaw the task since it is
marked PF_NOFREEZE.
Avoid this problem by checking the task's PF_NOFREEZE status in
frozen_processes() before marking the task as frozen.

In particular, this may happen right after the try_to_freeze_tasks()

Currently try_to_freeze_tasks() has to wait until all of the vforked processes
exit and for this reason every user can make it fail. To fix this problem we
can introduce the additional process flag PF_FREEZER_SKIP to be used by tasks
that do not want to be counted as freezable by the freezer and want to have
TIF_FREEZE set nevertheless. Then, this flag can be set by tasks using
sys_vfork() before they call wait_for_completion(&vfork) and cleared after
they have woken up. After clearing it, the tasks should call try_to_freeze()
as soon as possible.

If the freezing of tasks fails and a task is preempted in refrigerator()
before calling frozen_process(), then thaw_tasks() may run before this task is
frozen. In that case the task will freeze and no one will thaw it.
To fix this race we can call freezing(current) in refrigerator() along with
frozen_process(current) under the task_lock() which also should be taken in
the error path of try_to_freeze_tasks() as well as in thaw_process().
Moreover, if thaw_process() additionally clears TIF_FREEZE for tasks that are
not frozen, we can be sure that all tasks are thawed and there are no pending
"freeze" requests after thaw_tasks() has run.

MegaIDE in RAID mode doesn't provide the drive tuning data that the

fools the code.
For the RAID class case skip the oem setup and don't trust the BIOS data.
We then tune from scratch and this sorts it out. (This has been confirmed
