kthread: Document ways of reducing OS jitter due to per-CPU kthreads
The Linux kernel uses a number of per-CPU kthreads, any of which might
contribute to OS jitter at any time. The usual approach to normal
kthreads, namely to bind them to a "housekeeping" CPU, does not work
with these kthreads because they cannot operate correctly if moved to
some other CPU. This commit therefore lists ways of controlling OS
jitter from the Linux kernel's per-CPU kthreads. It also lists some
ways of diagnosing excessive jitter.

Currently, CPU 0 is constrained to not be a no-CBs CPU, and furthermore

OS jitter and latencies due to RCU callback invocation. This commit
therefore provides no-CBs CPUs a (very crude and energy-inefficient)

"_DMI_" at offset 16 in an SMBIOS entry. smbios_present() may also call
dmi_present() for an address where we found "_SM_", if it failed further
validation.
Check for "_DMI_" in smbios_present() before calling dmi_present().

Revert parts of "hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators"
Commit b67bfe0d42ca ("hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators")
did a lot of nice changes but also contains two small hunks that seem to
have slipped in accidentally and have no apparent connection to the
intent of the patch.
This reverts the two extraneous changes.

idr: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() on negative IDs
idr_find(), idr_remove() and idr_replace() used to silently ignore the
sign bit and perform lookup with the rest of the bits. The weird behavior
has been changed such that negative IDs are treated as invalid. As the
behavior change was subtle, WARN_ON_ONCE() was added in the hope of
determining who's calling idr functions with negative IDs so that they can
be examined for problems.
Up until now, all two reported cases are ID number coming directly from
userland and getting fed into idr_find() and the warnings seem to cause
more problems than being helpful. Drop the WARN_ON_ONCE()s.

ipc: don't allocate a copy larger than max
When MSG_COPY is set, a duplicate message must be allocated for the copy
before locking the queue. However, the copy could not be larger than was
