sh: delete __cpuinit usage from all sh files

2013-07-14T23:36:53+00:00

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.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/sh uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files.  Currently sh does not have any __CPUINIT used in
assembly files.

sh: use clear_tasks_mm_cpumask()

2012-06-01T00:49:30+00:00

Checking for process->mm is not enough because process' main thread may
exit or detach its mm via use_mm(), but other threads may still have a
valid mm.

To fix this we would need to use find_lock_task_mm(), which would walk up
all threads and returns an appropriate task (with task lock held).

clear_tasks_mm_cpumask() has the issue fixed, so let's use it.

sched: Provide scheduler_ipi() callback in response to smp_send_reschedule()

2011-04-14T06:52:32+00:00

For future rework of try_to_wake_up() we'd like to push part of that
function onto the CPU the task is actually going to run on.

In order to do so we need a generic callback from the existing scheduler IPI.

This patch introduces such a generic callback: scheduler_ipi() and
implements it as a NOP.

BenH notes: PowerPC might use this IPI on offline CPUs under rare conditions!
