[GIT PULL] percpu fixes for 2.6.31-rc6

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Fri Aug 14 2009 - 00:53:33 EST


Hello, Linus.

Please consider pulling from the following percpu fixes tree.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu.git for-linus

This branch contains three patches fixing the following two bugs.

* percpu code assumed num_possible_cpus() == nr_cpu_ids. This is okay
for x86 and other archs which don't have holes in cpu_possible_map
but certain configurations on sparc64 have holes and this wrong
assumption leads to boot failures or other mysterious problems.

To fix this, nr_cpu_ids initialization which used to be done right
after setup_per_cpu_areas() is moved so that it's done right before.
setup_per_cpu_areas() already depends on cpu_possible_map which
nr_cpu_ids also is initialized from, so this should be safe.

Then, num_possible_cpus() usages are substituted with nr_cpu_ids.
For x86 and other archs with contiguous cpu_possible_map, this is
noop. The only non-trivial code change is in
pcpu_embed_first_chunk() where the code is changed to free whole
areas for impossible cpus.

* percpu was calling get_vm_area() with the wrong GFP_ flags instead
of the expected VM_ flags. The only VM_ flag which can change
behavior is VM_IOREMAP which is bit 0 which is __GFP_DMA which is
not included in GFP_KERNEL, so the bug nor the fix won't cause any
actual behavior difference.

Thanks.
