kthreads: kill CLONE_KERNEL, change kernel_thread(kernel_init) to avoid CLONE_SIGHAND
1. Remove CLONE_KERNEL, it has no users and it is dangerous.
The (old) comment says "List of flags we want to share for kernel
threads" but this is not true, we do not want to share ->sighand by
default. This flag can only be used if the caller is sure that both
parent/child will never play with signals (say, allow_signal/etc).
2. Change rest_init() to clone kernel_init() without CLONE_SIGHAND.
In this case CLONE_SIGHAND does not really hurt, and it looks like
optimization because copy_sighand() can avoid kmem_cache_alloc().
But in fact this only adds the minor pessimization. kernel_init()
is going to exec the init process, and de_thread() will need to
unshare ->sighand and do kmem_cache_alloc(sighand_cachep) anyway,
but it needs to do more work and take tasklist_lock and siglock.
When a module is built into the kernel the module_init() function
becomes an initcall. Sometimes debugging through dynamic debug can
help, however, debugging built in kernel modules is typically done by
changing the .config, recompiling, and booting the new kernel in an
effort to determine exactly which module caused a problem.
This patchset can be useful stand-alone or combined with initcall_debug.
There are cases where some initcalls can hang the machine before the
console can be flushed, which can make initcall_debug output inaccurate.
Having the ability to skip initcalls can help further debugging of these
scenarios.
Usage: initcall_blacklist=<list of comma separated initcalls>
ex) added "initcall_blacklist=sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and
the log contains:

init/main.c: don't use pr_debug()
Pertially revert commit ea676e846a81 ("init/main.c: convert to
pr_foo()").
Unbeknownst to me, pr_debug() is different from the other pr_foo()
levels: pr_debug() is a no-op when DEBUG is not defined.
Happily, init/main.c does have a #define DEBUG so we didn't break
initcall_debug. But the functioning of initcall_debug should not be
dependent upon the presence of that #define DEBUG.

printk: remove separate printk_sched buffers and use printk buf instead
To prevent deadlocks with doing a printk inside the scheduler,
printk_sched() was created. The issue is that printk has a console_sem
that it can grab and release. The release does a wake up if there's a
task pending on the sem, and this wake up grabs the rq locks that is
held in the scheduler. This leads to a possible deadlock if the wake up
uses the same rq as the one with the rq lock held already.
What printk_sched() does is to save the printk write in a per cpu buffer
and sets the PRINTK_PENDING_SCHED flag. On a timer tick, if this flag is
set, the printk() is done against the buffer.
There's a couple of issues with this approach.
1) If two printk_sched()s are called before the tick, the second one
will overwrite the first one.
2) The temporary buffer is 512 bytes and is per cpu. This is a quite a
bit of space wasted for something that is seldom used.
In order to remove this, the printk_sched() can use the printk buffer
instead, and delay the console_trylock()/console_unlock() to the queued
work.
Because printk_sched() would then be taking the logbuf_lock, the
logbuf_lock must not be held while doing anything that may call into the
scheduler functions, which includes wake ups. Unfortunately, printk()
also has a console_sem that it uses, and on release, the up(&console_sem)
may do a wake up of any pending waiters. This must be avoided while
holding the logbuf_lock.

printk: ignore too long messages
There was no check for too long messages. The check for free space always
passed when first_seq and next_seq were equal. Enough free space was not
guaranteed, though.
log_store() might be called to store messages up to 64kB + 64kB + 16B.
This is sum of maximal text_len, dict_len values, and the size of the
structure printk_log.
On the other hand, the minimal size for the main log buffer currently is
4kB and it is enforced only by Kconfig.
The good news is that the usage looks safe right now. log_store() is
called only from vprintk_emit() and cont_flush(). Here the "text" part is
always passed via a static buffer and the length is limited to
LOG_LINE_MAX which is 1024. The "dict" part is NULL in most cases. The
only exceptions is when vprintk_emit() is called from printk_emit() and
dev_vprintk_emit(). But printk_emit() is currently used only in
devkmsg_writev() and here "dict" is NULL as well. In dev_vprintk_emit(),
"dict" is limited by the static buffer "hdr" of the size 128 bytes. It
meas that the current maximal printed text is 1024B + 128B + 16B and it
always fit the log buffer.
But it is only matter of time when someone calls printk_emit() with unsafe
parameters, especially the "dict" one.
This patch adds a check for the free space when the buffer is empty. It
reuses the already existing log_has_space() function but it has to add an
extra parameter. It defines whether the buffer is empty. Note that the
same values of "first_idx" and "next_idx" might also mean that the buffer
is full.
If the buffer is empty, we must respect the current position of the
indexes. We cannot reset them to the beginning of the buffer. Otherwise,
the functions reading the buffer would get crazy.
The question is what to do when the message is too long. This patch uses
the easiest solution and just ignores the problematic message. Let's do
something better in a followup patch.

mm/memory-failure.c: support use of a dedicated thread to handle SIGBUS(BUS_MCEERR_AO)
Currently memory error handler handles action optional errors in the
deferred manner by default. And if a recovery aware application wants
to handle it immediately, it can do it by setting PF_MCE_EARLY flag.
However, such signal can be sent only to the main thread, so it's
problematic if the application wants to have a dedicated thread to
handler such signals.
So this patch adds dedicated thread support to memory error handler. We
have PF_MCE_EARLY flags for each thread separately, so with this patch
AO signal is sent to the thread with PF_MCE_EARLY flag set, not the main
thread. If you want to implement a dedicated thread, you call prctl()
to set PF_MCE_EARLY on the thread.
Memory error handler collects processes to be killed, so this patch lets
it check PF_MCE_EARLY flag on each thread in the collecting routines.
No behavioral change for all non-early kill cases.
Tony said:
: The old behavior was crazy - someone with a multithreaded process might
: well expect that if they call prctl(PF_MCE_EARLY) in just one thread, then
: that thread would see the SIGBUS with si_code = BUS_MCEERR_A0 - even if
: that thread wasn't the main thread for the process.

mm/memory-failure.c: don't let collect_procs() skip over processes for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED
When Linux sees an "action optional" machine check (where h/w has reported
an error that is not in the current execution path) we generally do not
want to signal a process, since most processes do not have a SIGBUS
handler - we'd just prematurely terminate the process for a problem that
they might never actually see.
task_early_kill() decides whether to consider a process - and it checks
whether this specific process has been marked for early signals with
"prctl", or if the system administrator has requested early signals for
all processes using /proc/sys/vm/memory_failure_early_kill.
But for MF_ACTION_REQUIRED case we must not defer. The error is in the
execution path of the current thread so we must send the SIGBUS
immediatley.
Fix by passing a flag argument through collect_procs*() to
task_early_kill() so it knows whether we can defer or must take action.
