Detach sched.h from mm.h

2007-05-21T16:18:19+00:00

First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline
function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock()
mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why.

This patch
a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h
b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c
c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation
d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly.
e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were
   getting them indirectly

Net result is:
a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if
   they don't need sched.h
b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files:
   on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files,
   after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

Cross-compile tested on

	all arm defconfigs, all mips defconfigs, all powerpc defconfigs,
	alpha alpha-up
	arm
	i386 i386-up i386-defconfig i386-allnoconfig
	ia64 ia64-up
	m68k
	mips
	parisc parisc-up
	powerpc powerpc-up
	s390 s390-up
	sparc sparc-up
	sparc64 sparc64-up
	um-x86_64
	x86_64 x86_64-up x86_64-defconfig x86_64-allnoconfig

as well as my two usual configs.

all-archs: consolidate .data section definition in asm-generic

2007-05-19T07:11:57+00:00

With this consolidation we can now modify the .data
section definition in one spot for all archs.

[MIPS] Drop __devinit tag from allocate_irqno() and free_irqno()

2007-05-11T13:28:31+00:00

This fix these warnings:

WARNING: arch/mips/kernel/built-in.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:free_irqno from __ksymtab_gpl between '__ksymtab_free_irqno' (at offset 0x0) and '__ksymtab_allocate_irqno'

[MIPS] Fix do_default_vi to use get_irq_regs to get the irq register ptr.

2007-05-11T13:28:30+00:00

Harmless bug because this function is only called in case of another
kernel bug anyway which is also why this was missed for so long.
