locks: fix F_GETLK regression (failure to find conflicts)

to modify its single file_lock argument instead of taking separate input
and output arguments. This makes it no longer safe to set the output
lock's fl_type to F_UNLCK before looking for a conflict, since that
means searching for a conflict against a lock with type F_UNLCK.
This fixes a regression which causes F_GETLK to incorrectly report no
conflict on most filesystems (including any filesystem that doesn't do
its own locking).
Also fix posix_lock_to_flock() to copy the lock type. This isn't
strictly necessary, since the caller already does this; but it seems
less likely to cause confusion in the future.

Entering the kernel at startup_32 without passing our real mode data in

nothing we currently support will break by removing this over designed
nightmare, and only the pending lguest patches will be affected. The
pending Xen patches have a different entry point that they use.
We are currently discussing what Xen and lguest need to do to boot the

clearly not their long term direction.

AFS: further write support fixes
Further fixes for AFS write support:
(1) The afs_send_pages() outer loop must do an extra iteration if it ends
with 'first == last' because 'last' is inclusive in the page set
otherwise it fails to send the last page and complete the RxRPC op under
some circumstances.
(2) Similarly, the outer loop in afs_pages_written_back() must also do an
extra iteration if it ends with 'first == last', otherwise it fails to
clear PG_writeback on the last page under some circumstances.

slub: support concurrent local and remote frees and allocs on a slab
Avoid atomic overhead in slab_alloc and slab_free
SLUB needs to use the slab_lock for the per cpu slabs to synchronize with
potential kfree operations. This patch avoids that need by moving all free
objects onto a lockless_freelist. The regular freelist continues to exist
and will be used to free objects. So while we consume the
lockless_freelist the regular freelist may build up objects.
If we are out of objects on the lockless_freelist then we may check the
regular freelist. If it has objects then we move those over to the
lockless_freelist and do this again. There is a significant savings in
terms of atomic operations that have to be performed.
We can even free directly to the lockless_freelist if we know that we are
running on the same processor. So this speeds up short lived objects.
They may be allocated and freed without taking the slab_lock. This is
particular good for netperf.
In order to maximize the effect of the new faster hotpath we extract the
hottest performance pieces into inlined functions. These are then inlined
into kmem_cache_alloc and kmem_cache_free. So hotpath allocation and
freeing no longer requires a subroutine call within SLUB.
[I am not sure that it is worth doing this because it changes the easy to
read structure of slub just to reduce atomic ops. However, there is
someone out there with a benchmark on 4 way and 8 way processor systems
that seems to show a 5% regression vs. Slab. Seems that the regression is
due to increased atomic operations use vs. SLAB in SLUB). I wonder if
this is applicable or discernable at all in a real workload?]

firewire: Provide module aliase for backwards compatibility.
This patch loads fw-sbp2 if sbp2 is still in the config file. So one can
go back and forth between releases without worry about the root
filesystem drivers.
