The following routines
uasm_rel_highest()
uasm_rel_higher()
are needlessly defined global. This patch makes them static.
Compile-tested using a customized config for the Malta board. Booting
the same board up to the shell prompt was also successful with this
patch applied.
Spotted by sparse.

This patch fixes the following sparse warning:
<<<<<<<<
arch/mips/kernel/early_printk.c:35:13: warning: symbol 'setup_early_printk'
was not declared. Should it be static?
<<<<<<<<
The fix is to define a prototype of the setup_early_printk() function and
to include the appropriate header into arch/mips/kernel/early_printk.c.

This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In
addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient
manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single()
for calling a given function on a single CPU only.
The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of
changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> has
contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well. Also thanks to
Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> for reviewing RCU usage
and getting rid of the data allocation fallback deadlock.

When callbacks are moved from offline cpu to this cpu,
the qlen field of this rdp should be updated.
[ Paul E. McKenney: ]
The effect of this bug would be for force_quiescent_state() to be invoked
when it should not and vice versa -- wasting cycles in the first case
and letting RCU callbacks remain piled up in the second case. The bug
is thus "benign" in that it does not result in premature grace-period
termination, but should of course be fixed nonetheless.
Preemption is disabled by the caller's get_cpu_var(), so we are guaranteed
to remain on the same CPU, as required. The local_irq_disable() is indeed
needed, otherwise, an interrupt might invoke call_rcu() or call_rcu_bh(),
which could cause that interrupt's increment of ->qlen to be lost.

(timers)
This patch allows torturing RCU from irq handlers (timers, in this case).
A new module parameter irqreader enables such additional torturing,
and is enabled by default. Variants of RCU that do not tolerate readers
being called from irq handlers (e.g., SRCU) ignore irqreader.

This patch re-institutes the ability to build rcutorture directly into
the Linux kernel. The reason that this capability was removed was that
this could result in your kernel being pretty much useless, as rcutorture
would be running starting from early boot. This problem has been avoided
by (1) making rcutorture run only three seconds of every six by default,
(2) adding a CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST_RUNNABLE that permits rcutorture
to be quiesced at boot time, and (3) adding a sysctl in /proc named
/proc/sys/kernel/rcutorture_runnable that permits rcutorture to be
quiesced and unquiesced when built into the kernel.
Please note that this /proc file is -not- available when rcutorture
is built as a module. Please also note that to get the earlier
take-no-prisoners behavior, you must use the boot command line to set
rcutorture's "stutter" parameter to zero.
The rcutorture quiescing mechanism is currently quite crude: loops
in each rcutorture process that poll a global variable once per tick.
Suggestions for improvement are welcome. The default action will
be to reduce the polling rate to a few times per second.

This patch takes a step towards making rcutorture more brutal by allowing
the test to be automatically periodically paused, with the default being
to run the test for five seconds then pause for five seconds and repeat.
This behavior can be controlled using a new "stutter" module parameter, so
that "stutter=0" gives the old default behavior of running continuously.
Starting and stopping rcutorture more heavily stresses RCU's interaction
with the scheduler, as well as exercising more paths through the
grace-period detection code.
Note that the default to "shuffle_interval" has also been adjusted from
5 seconds to 3 seconds to provide varying overlap with the "stutter"
interval.
I am still unable to provoke the failures that Alexey has been seeing,
even with this patch, but will be doing a few additional things to beef
up rcutorture.

this makes it easier for automated tests to pick up such failures.

Since softirq works for rcu reclaimer, rcu_tasklet is unused now.

This reverts commit 9aaffc898ff4a3df18c5fc4b9e0fa47e779ad726.
That commit was a very bad idea. RCU_TORTURE found many boot timing
bugs and other sorts of bugs in the past, so excluding it from
boot images is very silly.
The option already depends on DEBUG_KERNEL and is disabled by default.
Even when it runs, the test threads are reniced. If it annoys people
we could add a runtime sysctl.
