Introduces CONFIG_RELEASE_MASTER and makes release
master support dependent on the new symbol. This is
useful because dedicated interrupt handling only applies
to "large" multicore platforms. This will allow us to
not implement smp_send_pull_timers() for all platforms.

- With the "ALL" cluster size option the behavior of C-EDF is
equivalent to G-EDF (one single cluster)

NO_ENFORCEMENT - A job may execute beyond its declared execution time.
Jobs notify the kernel that they are complete via liblitmus's
sleep_next_period()
QUANTUM_ENFORCEMENT - The kernel terminates a job if its actual execution
time exceeds the declared execution time.
PRECISE_ENFORCEMENT - Hook declared, but not yet implemented. Plan to
support this policy through hrtimers. Error thrown if specified.

Adapt to new schema for spinlock:
(tglx 20091217)
spinlock - the weakest one, which might sleep in RT
raw_spinlock - spinlock which always spins even on RT
arch_spinlock - the hardware level architecture dependent implementation
----
Most probably, all the spinlocks changed by this commit will be true
spinning lock (raw_spinlock) in PreemptRT (so hopefully we'll need few
changes when porting Litmmus to PreemptRT).
There are a couple of spinlock that the kernel still defines as
spinlock_t (therefore no changes reported in this commit) that might cause
us troubles:
- wait_queue_t lock is defined as spinlock_t; it is used in:
* fmlp.c -- sem->wait.lock
* sync.c -- ts_release.wait.lock
- rwlock_t used in fifo implementation in sched_trace.c
* this need probably to be changed to something always spinning in RT
at the expense of increased locking time.
----
This commit also fixes warnings and errors due to the need to include
slab.h when using kmalloc() and friends.

This commit does not compile.

Improved C-EDF plugin. C-EDF now supports different cluster sizes (based
on L2 and L3 cache sharing) and supports dynamic changes of cluster size
(this requires reloading the plugin).

Make sure the plugin is not used by any CPUs while switching.
The CPU performing the switch sends an IPI to all other CPUs forcing
them to synchronize on an atomic variable.

The od_table is strictly per-thread and should not be inherited across
a fork/clone. This caused memory corruption when a task exited, which
ultimately could lead to oopses in unrelated code.
Bug and testcase initially reported by Glenn.

This device only supports mmap()'ing a single page.
This page is shared RW between the kernel and userspace.
It is inteded to allow near-zero-overhead communication
between the kernel and userspace. It's first use will be a
proper implementation of user-signaled
non-preemptable section support.

When a real-time task forks, then its LITMUS^RT-specific fields should be cleared,
because we don't want real-time tasks to spawn new real-time tasks that bypass
the plugin's admission control (if any).
This was broken in three ways:
1) kernel/fork.c did not erase all of tsk->rt_param, only the first few bytes due to
a wrong size argument to memset().
2) It should have been calling litmus_fork() instead anyway.
3) litmus_fork() was _also_ not clearing all of tsk->rt_param, due to another size
argument bug.
Interestingly, 1) and 2) can be traced back to the 2007->2008 port,
whereas 3) was added by Mitchell much later on (to dead code, no less).
I'm really surprised that this never blew up before.

- Binomial heap "heap" names conflicted with priority heap
of cgroup in kernel
- This patch change binomial heap "heap" names in "bheap"

Still to be merged:
- arm_release_timer() with no rq locking

Port 2008.3 Core LITMUS^RT infrastructure to Linux 2.6.32
litmus_sched_class implements 4 new methods:
- prio_changed:
void
- switched_to:
void
- get_rr_interval:
return infinity (i.e., 0)
- select_task_rq:
return current cpu
