The implicit presence of module.h everywhere meant that this header
also was getting moduleparam.h which defines struct kernel_param.
Since it only needs to know that kernel_param is a struct, call that
out instead of adding an include of moduleparam.h -- to get rid of this:
include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.h:316: warning: 'struct kernel_param' declared inside parameter list
include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.h:316: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want

The <linux/module.h> pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along
with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in
terms of being included from other commonly used <linux/something.h>
files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times.
The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere.
This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.
There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.
Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can
finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

The original implementations reference THIS_MODULE in an inline.
We could include <linux/export.h>, but it is better to avoid chaining.
Fortunately someone else already thought of this, and made a similar
inline into a #define in <linux/device.h> for device_schedule_callback(),
[see commit 523ded71de0] so follow that precedent here.
Also bubble up any __must_check that were used on the prev. wrapper inline
functions up one to the real __register functions, to preserve any prev.
sanity checks that were used in those instances.

The <linux/crypto.h> (which is in turn in common headers
like tcp.h) wants to use module_name() in an inline fcn.
But having all of <linux/module.h> along for the ride is
overkill and slows down compiles by a measureable amount,
since it in turn includes lots of headers.
Since the inline is never used anywhere in the kernel[1],
we can just remove it, and then also remove the module.h
include as well.
In all the many crypto modules, there were some relying on
crypto.h including module.h -- for them we now explicitly
call out module.h for inclusion.
[1] git grep shows some staging drivers also define the same
static inline, but they also never ever use it.

Allow userspace dm log implementations to register their log device so it
is no longer missing from the list of device dependencies.
When device mapper targets use a device they normally call dm_get_device
which includes it in the device list returned to userspace applications
such as LVM through the DM_TABLE_DEPS ioctl. Userspace log devices
don't use dm_get_device as userspace opens them so they are missing from
the list of dependencies.
This patch extends the DM_ULOG_CTR operation to allow userspace to
respond with the name of the log device (if appropriate) to be
registered via 'dm_get_device'. DM_ULOG_REQUEST_VERSION is incremented.
This is backwards compatible. If the kernel and userspace log server
have both been updated, the new information will be passed down to the
kernel and the device will be registered. If the kernel is new, but
the log server is old, the log server will not pass down any device
information and the kernel will simply bypass the device registration
as before. If the kernel is old but the log server is new, the log
server will see the old version number and not pass the device info.

A lot of files pull in module.h when all they are really
looking for is the basic EXPORT_SYMBOL functionality. The
recent data from Ingo[1] shows that this is one of several
instances that has a significant impact on compile times,
and it should be targeted for factoring out (as done here).
Note that several commonly used header files in include/*
directly include <linux/module.h> themselves (some 34 of them!)
The most commonly used ones of these will have to be made
independent of module.h before the full benefit of this change
can be realized.
We also transition THIS_MODULE from module.h to export.h,
since there are lots of files with subsystem structs that
in turn will have a struct module *owner and only be doing:
.owner = THIS_MODULE;
and absolutely nothing else modular. So, we also want to have
the THIS_MODULE definition present in the lightweight header.

In the OCZ RevoDrive3/zDrive R4 series, the "OCZ SuperScale Storage
Controller" with "Virtualized Controller Architecture 2.0" really seems
to be a Marvell 88SE9485 part, with OCZ firmware/BIOS.
Developed and tested on OCZ RevoDrive3 120GB [PCI 1b85:1021]
Should work on:
- OCZ RevoDrive3 (2x SandForce 2281)
- OCZ RevoDrive3 X2 (4x SandForce 2281)
- OCZ zDrive R4 CM84 (4x SandForce 2281)
- OCZ zDrive R4 CM88 (8x SandForce 2281)
- OCZ zDrive R4 RM84 (4x SandForce 2582)
- OCZ zDrive R4 RM88 (8x SandForce 2582)
All of this because a friend recently bought a OCZ RevoDrive3 and was
bitten by the lack of Linux support.
Notes from testing:
-------------------
- SMART works.
- VPD Device Identification is "OCZ-REVODRIVE3"
- Thin provisioning/TRIM seems to be implemented as WRITE SAME UNMAP,
with deterministic (non-zero) read after TRIM, but I'm not sure if it
works 100% in my testing.
- Some of the tuning in the firmware seems to ensure much better
performance when in a RAID0 setup than using the two devices
seperately.
I have not tested booting from the SSD, because all of this was
developed and tested remotely from the actual hardware.

For a ERESTARTNOHAND/ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR restarting system call
do_signal will prepare the restart of the system call with a rewind of
the PSW before calling get_signal_to_deliver (where the debugger might
take control). For A ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK restarting system call
do_signal will set -EINTR as return code.
There are two issues with this approach:
1) strace never sees ERESTARTNOHAND, ERESTARTSYS, ERESTARTNOINTR or
ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK as the rewinding already took place or the
return code has been changed to -EINTR
2) if get_signal_to_deliver does not return with a signal to deliver
the restart via the repeat of the svc instruction is left in place.
This opens a race if another signal is made pending before the
system call instruction can be reexecuted. The original system call
will be restarted even if the second signal would have ended the
system call with -EINTR.
These two issues can be solved by dropping the early rewind of the
system call before get_signal_to_deliver has been called and by using
the TIF_RESTART_SVC magic to do the restart if no signal has to be
delivered. The only situation where the system call restart via the
repeat of the svc instruction is appropriate is when a SA_RESTART
signal is delivered to user space.
Unfortunately this breaks inferior calls by the debugger again. The
system call number and the length of the system call instruction is
lost over the inferior call and user space will see ERESTARTNOHAND/
ERESTARTSYS/ERESTARTNOINTR/ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK. To correct this a
new ptrace interface is added to save/restore the system call number
and system call instruction length.

This patch introduces a mechanism that allows architecture backends to
remove page tables for the crashkernel memory. This can protect the loaded
kdump kernel from being overwritten by broken kernel code. Two new
functions crash_map_reserved_pages() and crash_unmap_reserved_pages() are
added that can be implemented by architecture code. The
crash_map_reserved_pages() function is called before and
crash_unmap_reserved_pages() after the crashkernel segments are loaded. The
functions are also called in crash_shrink_memory() to create/remove page
tables when the crashkernel memory size is reduced.
To support architectures that have large pages this patch also introduces
a new define KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN. The crashkernel start and size must
always be aligned with KEXEC_CRASH_MEM_ALIGN.

the elfcorehdr= kernel parameter. In order to reserve memory for the header
in the 2nd kernel also the size is required. Current kdump architecture
backends use different methods to do that, e.g. x86 uses the memmap= kernel
parameter. On s390 there is no easy way to transfer this information.
Therefore the elfcorehdr kernel parameter is extended to also pass the size.
This now can also be used as standard mechanism by all future kdump
architecture backends.
The syntax of the kernel parameter is extended as follows:
elfcorehdr=[size[KMG]@]offset[KMG]
This change is backward compatible because elfcorehdr=size is still allowed.
