In trace_test_and_set_recursion(), current->trace_recursion is placed into a
variable, and that variable should be used for the processing, as there's no
reason to dereference current multiple times.
On trace_clear_recursion(), current->trace_recursion is modified and there's
no reason to copy it over to a variable.

Inspecting the data structures of the function graph tracer, I found that
the overrun value is unsigned long, which is 8 bytes on a 64 bit machine,
and not only that, the depth is an int (4 bytes). The overrun can be simply
an unsigned int (4 bytes) and pack the ftrace_graph_ret structure better.
The depth is moved up next to the func, as it is used more often with func,
and improves cache locality.

Add kernel module listener that will load/validate and unload module BTF.
Module BTFs gets ID generated for them, which makes it possible to iterate
them with existing BTF iteration API. They are given their respective module's
names, which will get reported through GET_OBJ_INFO API. They are also marked
as in-kernel BTFs for tooling to distinguish them from user-provided BTFs.
Also, similarly to vmlinux BTF, kernel module BTFs are exposed through
sysfs as /sys/kernel/btf/<module-name>. This is convenient for user-space
tools to inspect module BTF contents and dump their types with existing tools:

To better describe what the pm_genpd_syscore_poweroff|poweron() functions
actually do, let's rename them to dev_pm_genpd_suspend|resume() and update
the rather few callers of them accordingly (a couple of clocksource

Moreover, let's take the opportunity to add some documentation of these

There are different platforms and devices which might use different scale
for the power values. Kernel sub-systems might need to check if all
Energy Model (EM) devices are using the same scale. Address that issue and
store the information inside EM for each device. Thanks to that they can
be easily compared and proper action triggered.

In order to minimize the interference of migrate_disable() on lower
priority tasks, which can be deprived of runtime due to being stuck
below a higher priority task. Teach the RT/DL balancers to push away
these higher priority tasks when a lower priority task gets selected
to run on a freshly demoted CPU (pull).
This adds migration interference to the higher priority task, but
restores bandwidth to system that would otherwise be irrevocably lost.
Without this it would be possible to have all tasks on the system
stuck on a single CPU, each task preempted in a migrate_disable()
section with a single high priority task running.
This way we can still approximate running the M highest priority tasks
on the system.
Migrating the top task away is (ofcourse) still subject to
migrate_disable() too, which means the lower task is subject to an
interference equivalent to the worst case migrate_disable() section.

Concurrent migrate_disable() and set_cpus_allowed_ptr() has
interesting features. We rely on set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to not return
until the task runs inside the provided mask. This expectation is
exported to userspace.
This means that any set_cpus_allowed_ptr() caller must wait until
migrate_enable() allows migrations.
At the same time, we don't want migrate_enable() to schedule, due to
patterns like:
preempt_disable();
migrate_disable();
...
migrate_enable();
preempt_enable();
And:
raw_spin_lock(&B);
spin_unlock(&A);
this means that when migrate_enable() must restore the affinity
mask, it cannot wait for completion thereof. Luck will have it that
that is exactly the case where there is a pending
set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), so let that provide storage for the async stop
machine.
Much thanks to Valentin who used TLA+ most effective and found lots of
'interesting' cases.

Add the base migrate_disable() support (under protest).
While migrate_disable() is (currently) required for PREEMPT_RT, it is
also one of the biggest flaws in the system.
Notably this is just the base implementation, it is broken vs
sched_setaffinity() and hotplug, both solved in additional patches for
ease of review.

With the new mechanism which kicks tasks off the outgoing CPU at the end of
schedule() the situation on an outgoing CPU right before the stopper thread
brings it down completely is:
- All user tasks and all unbound kernel threads have either been migrated
away or are not running and the next wakeup will move them to a online CPU.
- All per CPU kernel threads, except cpu hotplug thread and the stopper
thread have either been unbound or parked by the responsible CPU hotplug
callback.
That means that at the last step before the stopper thread is invoked the
cpu hotplug thread is the last legitimate running task on the outgoing
CPU.
Add a final wait step right before the stopper thread is kicked which
ensures that any still running tasks on the way to park or on the way to
kick themself of the CPU are either sleeping or gone.
This allows to remove the migrate_tasks() crutch in sched_cpu_dying(). If
sched_cpu_dying() detects that there is still another running task aside of
the stopper thread then it will explode with the appropriate fireworks.

This patch removes jbd2_fc_init() API and its related functions to
simplify enabling fast commits. With this change, the number of fast
commit blocks to use is solely determined by the JBD2 layer. So, we
move the default value for minimum number of fast commit blocks from
ext4/fast_commit.h to include/linux/jbd2.h. However, whether or not to
use fast commits is determined by the file system. The file system
just sets the fast commit feature using
jbd2_journal_set_features(). JBD2 layer then determines how many
blocks to use for fast commits (based on the value found in the JBD2
superblock).
Note that the JBD2 feature flag of fast commits is just an indication
that there are fast commit blocks present on disk. It doesn't tell
JBD2 layer about the intent of the file system of whether to it wants
to use fast commit or not. That's why, we blindly clear the fast
commit flag in journal_reset() after the recovery is done.
