Linus Torvalds ea66bf8653 - Fix scheduler frequency invariance bug related to overly long tickless periods 
triggering an integer overflow and disabling the feature.
 
 - Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr().
 
 - Fix do_set_cpus_allowed() deadlock scenarios related to calling kfree() with
   the pi_lock held. NOTE: the rcu_free() is the 'lazy' solution here - we looked
   at patches to free the structure after the pi_lock got dropped, but that looked
   quite a bit messier - and none of this is truly performance critical. We can
   revisit this if it's too lazy of a solution ...
