Dirk Behme reported instability on ARM11 SMP (VIPT non-aliasing cache)
caused by the dynamic linker changing protection on text pages to write
GOT entries. The problem is due to an interaction between the write
faulting code providing new anonymous pages which are incoherent with
the I-cache due to write buffering, and the I-cache not having been
invalidated.
a4db94d plugs the hole with the data cache coherency. This patch
provides the other half of the fix by flushing the I-cache in
flush_cache_range() for VM_EXEC VMAs (which is what we have when the
region is being made executable again.) This ensures that the I-cache
will be up to date with the newly COW'd pages.
Note: if users are writing instructions, then they still need to use
the ARM sys_cacheflush API to ensure that the caches are correctly
synchronized.

flush_cache_mm() is called in two cases:
1. when a process exits, just before the page tables are torn down.
We can allow the stale lines to evict themselves over time without
causing any harm.
2. when a process forks, and we've allocated a new ASID.
The instruction cache issues are dealt with as pages are brought
into the new process address space. Flushing the I-cache here is
therefore unnecessary.
However, we must keep the VIPT aliasing D-cache flush to ensure that
any dirty cache lines are not written back after the pages have been
reallocated for some other use - which would result in corruption.

The I and D caches for copy-on-write pages on processors with
write-allocate caches become incoherent causing problems on application
relying on CoW for text pages (dynamic linker relocating symbols in a
text page). This patch flushes the D-cache for such pages.

Both call sites for __flush_dcache_page() end up calling
__flush_icache_all() themselves, so having __flush_dcache_page() do
this as well is wasteful. Remove the duplicated icache flushing.

cfq_arm_slice_timer() has logic to disable idle window for SSD device. The same
thing should be done at cfq_select_queue() too, otherwise we will still see

After TCP RCU conversion, tw->tw_refcnt should not be set to 1 in
inet_twsk_alloc(). It allows a RCU reader to get this timewait socket,
while we not yet stabilized it.
Only choice we have is to set tw_refcnt to 0 in inet_twsk_alloc(),
then atomic_add() it later, once everything is done.
Location of this atomic_add() is tricky, because we dont want another
writer to find this timewait in ehash, while tw_refcnt is still zero !
Thanks to Kapil Dakhane tests and reports.

Its currently possible that several threads issuing a connect() find
the same timewait socket and try to reuse it, leading to list
corruptions.
Condition for bug is that these threads bound their socket on same
address/port of to-be-find timewait socket, and connected to same
target. (SO_REUSEADDR needed)
To fix this problem, we could unhash timewait socket while holding
ehash lock, to make sure lookups/changes will be serialized. Only
first thread finds the timewait socket, other ones find the
established socket and return an EADDRNOTAVAIL error.
This second version takes into account Evgeniy's review and makes sure
inet_twsk_put() is called outside of locked sections.

when disabling interrupts, driver was writing with IO, this is no
necessary because on ixgbe parts the hardware can "oneshot"
disable and clear the interrupt. So on 82598/82599 use of EIAM
should avoid one posted write per interrupt when in MSI-X mode.
This should improve performance and seems to in my limited
testing, reduce CPU utilization VERY slightly.
