workqueue: introduce create_rt_workqueue
create_rt_workqueue will create a real time prioritized workqueue.
This is needed for the conversion of stop_machine to a workqueue based

core_param() for genuinely core kernel parameters
There are a lot of one-liner uses of __setup() in the kernel: they're
cumbersome and not queryable (definitely not settable) via /sys. Yet
it's ugly to simplify them to module_param(), because by default that
inserts a prefix of the module name (usually filename).
So, introduce a "core_param". The parameter gets no prefix, but
appears in /sys/module/kernel/parameters/ (if non-zero perms arg). I
thought about using the name "core", but that's more common than
"kernel". And if you create a module called "kernel", you will die
a horrible death.

param: Fix duplicate module prefixes
Instead of insisting each new module_param sysfs entry is unique,
handle the case where it already exists (for builtin modules).
The current code assumes that all identical prefixes are together in
the section: true for normal uses, but not necessarily so if someone
overrides MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX. More importantly, it's not true with
the new "core_param()" code which uses "kernel" as a prefix.
This simplifies the caller for the builtin case, at a slight loss of
efficiency (we do the lookup every time to see if the directory
exists).

Remove stop_machine during module load v2
Remove stop_machine during module load v2
module loading currently does a stop_machine on each module load to insert
the module into the global module lists. Especially on larger systems this
can be quite expensive.
It does that to handle concurrent lock lessmodule list readers
like kallsyms.
I don't think stop_machine() is actually needed to insert something
into a list though. There are no concurrent writers because the
module mutex is taken. And the RCU list functions know how to insert
a node into a list with the right memory ordering so that concurrent
readers don't go off into the wood.
So remove the stop_machine for the module list insert and just
do a list_add_rcu() instead.
Module removal will still do a stop_machine of course, it needs
that for other reasons.
v2: Revised readers based on Paul's comments. All readers that only
rely on disabled preemption need to be changed to list_for_each_rcu().
Done that. The others are ok because they have the modules mutex.
Also added a possible missing preempt disable for print_modules().

However, the second call is not necessary if the first one succeeds (the

To allow drivers to overcome this problem, introduce function

PCI: remove dynids.use_driver_data
The driver flag dynids.use_driver_data is almost consistently not set,
and causes more problems than it solves. It was initially intended as a
flag to indicate whether a driver's usage of driver_data had been
carefully inspected and was ready for values from userspace. That audit
was never done, so most drivers just get a 0 for driver_data when new
IDs are added from userspace via sysfs. So remove the flag, allowing
drivers to see the data directly (a followon patch validates the passed
driver_data value against what the drivers expect).

x86: sysfs: kill owner field from attribute
Tejun's commit 7b595756ec1f49e0049a9e01a1298d53a7faaa15 made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary. But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge. It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!
This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 . We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test. Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.
akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'. But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.
