As requested by Linus add explicit __visible to the asmlinkage users.
This marks functions visible to assembler.

Tree sweep for rest of tree.

To increase compiler portability there is &lt;linux/compiler.h&gt; which
provides convenience macros for various gcc constructs.  Eg: __weak for
__attribute__((weak)).  I've replaced all instances of gcc attributes
with the right macro in the kernel subsystem.

<content type='text'>
Switch to memblock interfaces for early memory allocator instead of
bootmem allocator.  No functional change in beahvior than what it is in
current code from bootmem users points of view.

Archs already converted to NO_BOOTMEM now directly use memblock
interfaces instead of bootmem wrappers build on top of memblock.  And
the archs which still uses bootmem, these new apis just fallback to
exiting bootmem APIs.

<content type='text'>
I have received a report about the BUG_ON() in free_basic_memory_bitmaps()
triggering mysteriously during an aborted s2disk hibernation attempt.
The only way I can explain that is that /dev/snapshot was first
opened for writing (resume mode), then closed and then opened again
for reading and closed again without freezing tasks.  In that case
the first invocation of snapshot_open() would set the free_bitmaps
flag in snapshot_state, which is a static variable.  That flag
wouldn't be cleared later and the second invocation of snapshot_open()
would just leave it like that, so the subsequent snapshot_release()
would see data-&gt;frozen set and free_basic_memory_bitmaps() would be
called unnecessarily.

To prevent that from happening clear data-&gt;free_bitmaps in
snapshot_open() when the file is being opened for reading (hibernate
mode).

In addition to that, replace the BUG_ON() in free_basic_memory_bitmaps()
with a WARN_ON() as the kernel can continue just fine if the condition
checked by that macro occurs.

<title>PM / hibernate: Avoid overflow in hibernate_preallocate_memory()</title>

<id>fd432b9f8c7c88428a4635b9f5a9c6e174df6e36</id>
<content type='text'>
When system has a lot of highmem (e.g. 16GiB using a 32 bits kernel),
the code to calculate how much memory we need to preallocate in
normal zone may cause overflow. As Leon has analysed:

 It looks that during computing 'alloc' variable there is overflow:
 alloc = (3943404 - 1970542) - 1978280 = -5418 (signed)
 And this function goes to err_out.

Fix this by avoiding that overflow.

Recent commit 8fd37a4 (PM / hibernate: Create memory bitmaps after
freezing user space) broke the resume part of the user space driven
hibernation (s2disk), because I forgot that the resume utility
loaded the image into memory without freezing user space (it still
freezes tasks after loading the image).  This means that during user
space driven resume we need to create the memory bitmaps at the
"device open" time rather than at the "freeze tasks" time, so make
that happen (that's a special case anyway, so it needs to be treated
in a special way).
