* Remove smp_lock.h from files which don't need it (including some headers!)
* Add smp_lock.h to files which do need it
* Make smp_lock.h include conditional in hardirq.h
  It's needed only for one kernel_locked() usage which is under CONFIG_PREEMPT

  This will make hardirq.h inclusion cheaper for every PREEMPT=n config
  (which includes allmodconfig/allyesconfig, BTW)

Commit 1faa16d22877f4839bd433547d770c676d1d964c accidentally broke
the bdi congestion wait queue logic, causing us to wait on congestion
for WRITE (== 1) when we really wanted BLK_RW_ASYNC (== 0) instead.

<title>NLS: update handling of Unicode</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch (as1239) updates the kernel's treatment of Unicode.  The
character-set conversion routines are well behind the current state of
the Unicode specification: They don't recognize the existence of code
points beyond plane 0 or of surrogate pairs in the UTF-16 encoding.

The old wchar_t 16-bit type is retained because it's still used in
lots of places.  This shouldn't cause any new problems; if a
conversion now results in an invalid 16-bit code then before it must
have yielded an undefined code.

Difficult-to-read names like "utf_mbstowcs" are replaced with more
transparent names like "utf8s_to_utf16s" and the ordering of the
parameters is rationalized (buffer lengths come immediate after the
pointers they refer to, and the inputs precede the outputs).
Fortunately the low-level conversion routines are used in only a few
places; the interfaces to the higher-level uni2char and char2uni
methods have been left unchanged.

Push down lock_super into -&gt;write_super instances and remove it from the
caller.

Following filesystem don't need -&gt;s_lock in -&gt;write_super and are skipped:

 * bfs, nilfs2 - no other uses of s_lock and have internal locks in
	-&gt;write_super
 * ext2 - uses BKL in ext2_write_super and has internal calls without s_lock
 * reiserfs - no other uses of s_lock as has reiserfs_write_lock (BKL) in
 	-&gt;write_super
 * xfs - no other uses of s_lock and uses internal lock (buffer lock on
	superblock buffer) to serialize -&gt;write_super.  Also xfs_fs_write_super
	is superflous and will go away in the next merge window

Move BKL into -&gt;put_super from the only caller.  A couple of
filesystems had trivial enough -&gt;put_super (only kfree and NULLing of
s_fs_info + stuff in there) to not get any locking: coda, cramfs, efs,
hugetlbfs, omfs, qnx4, shmem, all others got the full treatment.  Most
of them probably don't need it, but I'd rather sort that out individually.
Preferably after all the other BKL pushdowns in that area.

[AV: original used to move lock_super() down as well; these changes are
removed since we don't do lock_super() at all in generic_shutdown_super()
now]
[AV: fuse, btrfs and xfs are known to need no damn BKL, exempt]
