Make some changes to the NEED_RESCHED and POLLING_NRFLAG to reduce
confusion, and make their semantics rigid. Improves efficiency of
resched_task and some cpu_idle routines.
* In resched_task:
- TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the task's runqueue lock held,
and as we hold it during resched_task, then there is no need for an
atomic test and set there. The only other time this should be set is
when the task's quantum expires, in the timer interrupt - this is
protected against because the rq lock is irq-safe.
- If TIF_NEED_RESCHED is set, then we don't need to do anything. It
won't get unset until the task get's schedule()d off.
- If we are running on the same CPU as the task we resched, then set
TIF_NEED_RESCHED and no further action is required.
- If we are running on another CPU, and TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG is *not* set
after TIF_NEED_RESCHED has been set, then we need to send an IPI.
Using these rules, we are able to remove the test and set operation in
resched_task, and make clear the previously vague semantics of
POLLING_NRFLAG.
* In idle routines:
- Enter cpu_idle with preempt disabled. When the need_resched() condition
becomes true, explicitly call schedule(). This makes things a bit clearer
(IMO), but haven't updated all architectures yet.
- Many do a test and clear of TIF_NEED_RESCHED for some reason. According
to the resched_task rules, this isn't needed (and actually breaks the
assumption that TIF_NEED_RESCHED is only cleared with the runqueue lock
held). So remove that. Generally one less locked memory op when switching
to the idle thread.
- Many idle routines clear TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG, and only set it in the inner
most polling idle loops. The above resched_task semantics allow it to be
set until before the last time need_resched() is checked before going into
a halt requiring interrupt wakeup.
Many idle routines simply never enter such a halt, and so POLLING_NRFLAG
can be always left set, completely eliminating resched IPIs when rescheduling
the idle task.
POLLING_NRFLAG width can be increased, to reduce the chance of resched IPIs.

Run idle threads with preempt disabled.
Also corrected a bugs in arm26's cpu_idle (make it actually call schedule()).
How did it ever work before?
Might fix the CPU hotplugging hang which Nigel Cunningham noted.
We think the bug hits if the idle thread is preempted after checking
need_resched() and before going to sleep, then the CPU offlined.
After calling stop_machine_run, the CPU eventually returns from preemption and
into the idle thread and goes to sleep. The CPU will continue executing
previous idle and have no chance to call play_dead.
By disabling preemption until we are ready to explicitly schedule, this bug is
fixed and the idle threads generally become more robust.

This patch, however, should be applied on top of the 64k-page-size patch to
fix some problems with hugepage (some pre-existing, another introduced by
this patch).
The patch fixes a bug in the SLB miss handler for hugepages on ppc64
introduced by the dynamic hugepage patch (commit id
c594adad56) due to a misunderstanding of the
srd instruction's behaviour (mea culpa). The problem arises when a 64-bit
process maps some hugepages in the low 4GB of the address space (unusual).
In this case, as well as the 256M segment in question being marked for
hugepages, other segments at 32G intervals will be incorrectly marked for
hugepages.
In the process, this patch tweaks the semantics of the hugepage bitmaps to
be more sensible. Previously, an address below 4G was marked for hugepages
if the appropriate segment bit in the "low areas" bitmask was set *or* if
the low bit in the "high areas" bitmap was set (which would mark all
addresses below 1TB for hugepage). With this patch, any given address is
governed by a single bitmap. Addresses below 4GB are marked for hugepage
if and only if their bit is set in the "low areas" bitmap (256M
granularity). Addresses between 4GB and 1TB are marked for hugepage iff
the low bit in the "high areas" bitmap is set. Higher addresses are marked
for hugepage iff their bit in the "high areas" bitmap is set (1TB
granularity).
To avoid conflicts, this patch must be applied on top of BenH's pending
patch for 64k base page size [0]. As such, this patch also addresses a
hugepage problem introduced by that patch. That patch allows hugepages of
1MB in size on hardware which supports it, however, that won't work when
using 4k pages (4 level pagetable), because in that case hugepage PTEs are
stored at the PMD level, and each PMD entry maps 2MB. This patch simply
disallows hugepages in that case (we can do something cleverer to re-enable
them some other day).
Built, booted, and a handful of hugepage related tests passed on POWER5
LPAR (both ARCH=powerpc and ARCH=ppc64).

The ancient ppcdebug/PPCDBG mechanism is now only used in two places.
First, in the hash setup code, one of the bits allows the size of the

accomplished with a command line option for that purpose. The other
was a bunch of bus walking related messages in the iSeries code, which
would seem to be insufficient reason to keep the mechanism.
