<title>mm: add new mmgrab() helper</title>

Apart from adding the helper function itself, the rest of the kernel is
converted mechanically using:

  git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&amp;\(.*\)-&gt;mm_count);/mmgrab\(\1\);/'
  git grep -l 'atomic_inc.*mm_count' | xargs sed -i 's/atomic_inc(&amp;\(.*\)\.mm_count);/mmgrab\(\&amp;\1\);/'

This is needed for a later patch that hooks into the helper, but might
be a worthwhile cleanup on its own.

<title>arch/hotplug: Call into idle with a proper state</title>

Let the non boot cpus call into idle with the corresponding hotplug state, so
the hotplug core can handle the further bringup. That's a first step to
convert the boot side of the hotplugged cpus to do all the synchronization
with the other side through the state machine. For now it'll only start the
hotplug thread and kick the full bringup of the cpu.

Commit 9a46ad6d6df3b54 "smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic
similar to smp_call_function_single()" has unified the way to handle
single and multiple cross-CPU function calls. Now only one interrupt
is needed for architecture specific code to support generic SMP function
call interfaces, so kill the redundant single function call interrupt.

This allows us to get rid of some hacky code for SMP.  Get rid of
some cycle counter hackery that's now handled by generic code via
clocksource + clock_event_device objects.

For sending message:

        *(unsigned int *)&amp;cpu-&gt;ipc_buffer[0] = len;
        cp1 = (char *) &amp;cpu-&gt;ipc_buffer[1];

But for receive message:

                cnt = cpu-&gt;ipc_buffer[0] &gt;&gt; 32;
                ...
                       cp1 = (char *) &amp;cpu-&gt;ipc_buffer[11];

They are not pairs, it is typo issue of the redundency '1'.

So need use '1' instead of '11'.

When sending message in send_secondary_console_msg(), the length is not
include the NUL byte, and also not copy NUL to 'ipc_buffer'.

When receive message in recv_secondary_console_msg(), the 'cnt' also
excludes NUL.

So when get string from ipc_buffer, it may not be NUL terminated.

Then use memcpy() instead of strcpy(), and set last byte NUL.

<title>alpha: delete __cpuinit usage from all users</title>

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the alpha uses of the __cpuinit macros.

<title>ALPHA: drivers: remove __dev* attributes.</title>

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.
