When a 64-bit x86 processor runs in 32-bit PAE mode, a pte can
potentially have the same number of physical address bits as the
64-bit host ("Enhanced Legacy PAE Paging"). This means, in theory,
we could have up to 52 bits of physical address in a pte.
The 32-bit kernel uses a 32-bit unsigned long to represent a pfn.
This means that it can only represent physical addresses up to 32+12=44
bits wide. Rather than widening pfns everywhere, just set 2^44 as the
Linux x86_32-PAE architectural limit for physical address size.

Kthreads that have called kthread_bind() are bound to specific cpus, so
other tasks should not be able to change their cpus_allowed from under
them. Otherwise, it is possible to move kthreads, such as the migration
or software watchdog threads, so they are not allowed access to the cpu
they work on.

Currently arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c always adds __GFP_NORETRY
to the allocation flags, because it wants to be reasonably
sure not to deadlock when calling alloc_pages().
But really that should only be done in two cases:
- when allocating memory in the lower 16 MB DMA zone.
If there's no free memory there, waiting or OOM killing is of no use
- when optimistically trying an allocation in the DMA32 zone
when dma_mask < DMA_32BIT_MASK hoping that the allocation
happens to fall within the limits of the dma_mask
Also blindly adding __GFP_NORETRY to the the gfp variable might
not be a good idea since we then also use it when calling
dma_ops->alloc_coherent(). Clearing it might also not be a
good idea, dma_alloc_coherent()'s caller might have set it
on purpose. The gfp variable should not be clobbered.

The intent was always to filter core kernel functions to prevent their freeing.
Here's a fix which should allow re-recording of module call-sites.

Identify functions which had their mcount call-site updates failed. This can
help us track functions which ftrace shouldn't fiddle with, and are thus not
being traced. If there is no race with any external agent which is modifying

Prevent freeing of records which cause problems and correspond to function from
core kernel text. A new flag, FTRACE_FL_CONVERTED is used to mark a record
as "converted". All other records are patched lazily to NOPs. Failed records
now also remain on frace_hash table. Each invocation of ftrace_record_ip now
checks whether the traced function has ever been recorded (including past
failures) and doesn't re-record it again.

schedule() has the special "TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE && signal_pending()" case,
this allows us to do
current->state = TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE;
schedule();
without fear to sleep with pending signal.
However, the code like
current->state = TASK_KILLABLE;
schedule();
is not right, schedule() doesn't take TASK_WAKEKILL into account. This means
that mutex_lock_killable(), wait_for_completion_killable(), down_killable(),
schedule_timeout_killable() can miss SIGKILL (and btw the second SIGKILL has
no effect).
Introduce the new helper, signal_pending_state(), and change schedule() to
use it. Hopefully it will have more users, that is why the task's state is
passed separately.
Note this "__TASK_STOPPED | __TASK_TRACED" check in signal_pending_state().
This is needed to preserve the current behaviour (ptrace_notify). I hope
this check will be removed soon, but this (afaics good) change needs the
separate discussion.
The fast path is "(state & (INTERRUPTIBLE | WAKEKILL)) + signal_pending(p)",
basically the same that schedule() does now. However, this patch of course
bloats schedule().

but we have:
#define NR_SECTION_ROOTS (NR_MEM_SECTIONS / SECTIONS_PER_ROOT)
and

This is to help with distro integration of the new secmark-based

The need for a separate table arises from the fact that existing tools
and usage of iptables will likely clash with centralized MAC policy
management.
The SECMARK and CONNSECMARK targets will still be valid in the mangle
