Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
 "So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
  problem.  We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process.  seccomp
  hooks in before the audit syscall entry code.  audit_syscall_entry
  took as an argument the arch of the given syscall.  Since the arch is
  part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
  of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
  syscall...

  For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
  So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
  there is audit which didn't have it.  Use syscall_get_arch() in the
  seccomp audit code.  Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
  a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
  syscall entry.

  The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
  records that had invalid spaces.  Better locking around the task comm
  field.  Removing some dead functions and structs.  Make some things
  static.  Really minor stuff"

alloc_bootmem and related functions never return NULL. Thus a NULL
test or memset after calls to these functions is unnecessary.

The following Coccinelle semantic patch was used for making the change:

@@
expression E;
statement S;
@@

E = \(alloc_bootmem\|alloc_bootmem_low\|alloc_bootmem_pages\|alloc_bootmem_low_pages\)(...)
... when != E
- if (E == NULL) S

Starting with Linux 3.12 processes get stuck in D state forever in
UserModeLinux under sync heavy workloads. This bug was introduced by
commit 805f11a0d5 (um: ubd: Add REQ_FLUSH suppport).
Fix bug by adding a check if FLUSH request was successfully submitted to
the I/O thread and keeping the FLUSH request on the request queue on
submission failures.

1) uml kernel bootmem managed through bootmem_data-&gt;node_bootmem_map,
not the struct page array, so the array is unnecessary.

2) the bootmem struct page array has been pointed by a *local* pointer,
struct page *map, in init_maps function. The array can be accessed only
in init_maps's scope. As a result, uml kernel wastes about 1% of total
memory.

<title>ARCH: AUDIT: audit_syscall_entry() should not require the arch</title>

We have a function where the arch can be queried, syscall_get_arch().
So rather than have every single piece of arch specific code use and/or
duplicate syscall_get_arch(), just have the audit code use the
syscall_get_arch() code.

<title>sched, cleanup, treewide: Remove set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) after schedule()</title>

<content type='text'>
schedule(), io_schedule() and schedule_timeout() always return
with TASK_RUNNING state set, so one more setting is unnecessary.

(All places in patch are visible good, only exception is
 kiblnd_scheduler() from:

      drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/klnds/o2iblnd/o2iblnd_cb.c

 Its schedule() is one line above standard 3 lines of unified diff)

No places where set_current_state() is used for mb().

schedule(), io_schedule() and schedule_timeout() always return
with TASK_RUNNING state set, so one more setting is unnecessary.

(All places in patch are visible good, only exception is
 kiblnd_scheduler() from:

      drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/klnds/o2iblnd/o2iblnd_cb.c

 Its schedule() is one line above standard 3 lines of unified diff)

No places where set_current_state() is used for mb().

The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that
the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped.

Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to
tell about their support for this ability.
