When I tried to send a patch to remove it, Andi told me we still need to
keep compabitlies for old libc, so we can't remove this completely.  Then
just make it default to n and remove the doc from
feature-removal-schedule.txt.

<content type='text'>
This commit eliminates the possibility of running TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
when SMP=n and of running TINY_RCU when PREEMPT=y.  People who really
want these combinations can hand-edit init/Kconfig, but eliminating
them as choices for production systems reduces the amount of testing
required.  It will also allow cutting out a few #ifdefs.

Note that running TREE_RCU and TINY_RCU on single-CPU systems using
SMP-built kernels is still supported.

<title>sched: Introduce primitives to account for CFS bandwidth tracking</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ab84d31e15502fb626169ba2663381e34bf965b2</id>
<content type='text'>
In this patch we introduce the notion of CFS bandwidth, partitioned into
globally unassigned bandwidth, and locally claimed bandwidth.

 - The global bandwidth is per task_group, it represents a pool of unclaimed
   bandwidth that cfs_rqs can allocate from.
 - The local bandwidth is tracked per-cfs_rq, this represents allotments from
   the global pool bandwidth assigned to a specific cpu.

Bandwidth is managed via cgroupfs, adding two new interfaces to the cpu subsystem:
 - cpu.cfs_period_us : the bandwidth period in usecs
 - cpu.cfs_quota_us : the cpu bandwidth (in usecs) that this tg will be allowed
   to consume over period above.

<title>gcov: disable CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS when not needed by CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d2c32258798f813dc2be6cbc32f78aa5ac5cb205</id>
<content type='text'>
CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS controls support for running constructor functions at
kernel init time.  According to commit b99b87f70c7785ab ("kernel:
constructor support"), gcov (CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL) needs this.  However,
CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS currently defaults to y, with no option to disable it,
and CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL depends on it.  Instead, default it to n and have
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL select it, so that the normal case of
CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=n will result in CONFIG_CONSTRUCTORS=n.

Observed in the short list of =y values in a minimal kernel configuration.

<title>uts: make default hostname configurable, rather than always using "(none)"</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bd5dc17be87b3a3073d50b23802647db3ae3fa8e</id>
<content type='text'>
The "hostname" tool falls back to setting the hostname to "localhost" if
/etc/hostname does not exist.  Distribution init scripts have the same
fallback.  However, if userspace never calls sethostname, such as when
booting with init=/bin/sh, or otherwise booting a minimal system without
the usual init scripts, the default hostname of "(none)" remains,
unhelpfully appearing in various places such as prompts ("root@(none):~#")
and logs.  Furthermore, "(none)" doesn't typically resolve to anything
useful.

Make the default hostname configurable.  This removes the need for the
standard fallback, provides a useful default for systems that never call
sethostname, and makes minimal systems that much more useful with less
configuration.  Distributions could choose to use "localhost" here to
avoid the fallback, while embedded systems may wish to use a specific
target hostname.

Lenghty lists of the kind "depends on ARCH1 || ARCH2 ... || ARCH123" are
usually either wrong or too coarse grained.  Or plain an ugly sin.
