<title>kernel: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.h</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9984de1a5a8a96275fcab818f7419af5a3c86e71</id>
<content type='text'>
The changed files were only including linux/module.h for the
EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure, and nothing else.  Revector them
onto the isolated export header for faster compile times.

Nothing to see here but a whole lot of instances of:

  -#include &lt;linux/module.h&gt;
  +#include &lt;linux/export.h&gt;

This commit is only changing the kernel dir; next targets
will probably be mm, fs, the arch dirs, etc.

profile_hits() has a common check for prof_on and prof_buffer regardless
of SMP or !SMP.  So, remove some duplicate code by splitting profile_hits
into two.

<title>llseek: automatically add .llseek fop</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6038f373a3dc1f1c26496e60b6c40b164716f07e</id>
<content type='text'>
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time.  Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

<content type='text'>
In kernel profiling requires that we be able to allocate "local" memory
for each cpu.  Use "cpu_to_mem()" instead of "cpu_to_node()" to support
memoryless nodes.

Depends on the "numa_mem_id()" patch.

If the kernel is large or the profiling step small, /proc/profile
leaks data and readprofile shows silly stats, until readprofile -r
has reset the buffer: clear the prof_buffer when it is vmalloc()ed.

When profile= is used, a large buffer is allocated early at boot.  This
can be larger than what the page allocator can provide so it prints a
warning.  However, the caller is able to handle the situation so this
patch suppresses the warning.

<content type='text'>
Callers of alloc_pages_node() can optionally specify -1 as a node to mean
"allocate from the current node".  However, a number of the callers in
fast paths know for a fact their node is valid.  To avoid a comparison and
branch, this patch adds alloc_pages_exact_node() that only checks the nid
with VM_BUG_ON().  Callers that know their node is valid are then
converted.
