torture: Eliminate torture_runnable and perf_runnable
The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture
to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel
(as in not compiled as loadable modules). However, the 0444 permissions
for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever
being put into practice. Given that there have been no complaints
about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually
makes use of this sysfs capability. The perf_runnable module parameter
for rcuperf is in the same situation.
This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well
as perf_runnable.

torture: Make stutter less vulnerable to compilers and races
The stutter_wait() function repeatedly fetched stutter_pause_test, and
should really just fetch it once on each pass. The races should be
harmless, but why have the races? Also, the whole point of the value
"2" for stutter_pause_test is to get everyone to start at very nearly
the same time, but the value "2" was the first jiffy of the stutter
rather than the last jiffy of the stutter.

sched: Stop switched_to_rt() from sending IPIs to offline CPUs
The rcutorture test suite occasionally provokes a splat due to invoking
rt_mutex_lock() which needs to boost the priority of a task currently
sitting on a runqueue that belongs to an offline CPU:
But the target task's priority has already been adjusted, so the only
purpose of switched_to_rt() invoking resched_curr() is to wake up the
CPU running some task that needs to be preempted by the boosted task.
But the CPU is offline, which presumably means that the task must be
migrated to some other CPU, and that this other CPU will undertake any
needed preemption at the time of migration. Because the runqueue lock
is held when resched_curr() is invoked, we know that the boosted task
cannot go anywhere, so it is not necessary to invoke resched_curr()

This splat cannot be generated by expedited grace periods because they
always invoke resched_cpu() on the current CPU, which is good because
expedited grace periods require that resched_cpu() unconditionally
succeed. However, other parts of RCU can tolerate resched_cpu() acting
as a no-op, at least as long as it doesn't happen too often.
This commit therefore makes resched_cpu() invoke resched_curr() only if
the CPU is either online or is the current CPU.

(3) Don't d_drop() the new_dentry in afs_rename() on error.
Also fix afs_link() and afs_rename() to call key_put() on all error paths
where the key is taken.

afs: Make afs_write_begin() avoid writing to a page that's being stored
Make afs_write_begin() wait for a page that's marked PG_writeback because:
(1) We need to avoid interference with the data being stored so that the
data on the server ends up in a defined state.
(2) page->private is used to track the window of dirty data within a page,
but it's also used by the storage code to track what's being written,
being cleared by the completion notification. Ownership can't be
relinquished by the storage code until completion because it a store
fails, the data must be remarked dirty.
Tracing shows something like the following (edited):
The clear (completion) corresponding to the store+ (store continuation from
a previous page) happens between the second begin (afs_write_begin) and the
store corresponding to that. This results in the second store not seeing
any data to write back, leading to the following warning:

sched/debug: Fix task state recording/printout
The recent conversion of the task state recording to use task_state_index()
broke the sched_switch tracepoint task state output.
task_state_index() returns surprisingly an index (0-7) which is then
printed with __print_flags() applying bitmasks. Not really working and
resulting in weird states like 'prev_state=t' instead of 'prev_state=I'.
Use TASK_REPORT_MAX instead of TASK_STATE_MAX to report preemption. Build a
bitmask from the return value of task_state_index() and store it in
entry->prev_state, which makes __print_flags() work as expected.

x86/decoder: Add new TEST instruction pattern
The kbuild test robot reported this build warning:
Warning: arch/x86/tools/test_get_len found difference at <jump_table>:ffffffff8103dd2c
Warning: ffffffff8103dd82: f6 09 d8 testb $0xd8,(%rcx)
Warning: objdump says 3 bytes, but insn_get_length() says 2
Warning: decoded and checked 1569014 instructions with 1 warnings
This sequence seems to be a new instruction not in the opcode map in the Intel SDM.
The instruction sequence is "F6 09 d8", means Group3(F6), MOD(00)REG(001)RM(001), and 0xd8.
Intel SDM vol2 A.4 Table A-6 said the table index in the group is "Encoding of Bits 5,4,3 of
the ModR/M Byte (bits 2,1,0 in parenthesis)"
In that table, opcodes listed by the index REG bits as:
1) Fix PCI IDs of 9000 series iwlwifi devices, from Luca Coelho.
2) bpf offload bug fixes from Jakub Kicinski.
3) Fix bpf verifier to NOP out code which is dead at run time because
due to branch pruning the verifier will not explore such
instructions. From Alexei Starovoitov.
4) Fix crash when deleting secondary chains in packet scheduler
classifier. From Roman Kapl.
5) Fix buffer management bugs in smc, from Ursula Braun.
6) Fix regression in anycast route handling, from David Ahern.
7) Fix link settings regression in r8169, from Tobias Jakobi.
8) Add back enough UFO support so that live migration still works, from
Willem de Bruijn.
9) Linearize enough packet data for the full extent to which the ipvlan
code will inspect the packet headers, from Gao Feng.
