When mm destruction happens, we should pass mm_update_next_owner() the old mm.
But unfortunately new mm is passed in exec_mmap().
Thus, kernel panic is possible when a multi-threaded process uses exec().
Also, the owner member comment description is wrong. mm->owner does not
necessarily point to the thread group leader.

The current driver may cause glitches on SPI CLK line since one must disable
the SPI controller before changing any HW settings. Fix this by implementing
a local spi_transfer function that won't change speed and/or word size while
CS is active.
While doing that heavy lifting a few other issues were addressed too:
- Make word size 16 and 32 work too.
- Honor bits_per_word and speed_hz in spi transaction.
- Optimize the common path.
This also stops using the "bitbang" framework (except for a few constants).

The input argument to rtc_time_to_tm() is unsigned as well as are members of
the output structure. However signed arithmetic is used within for
calculations leading to incorrect results for input values outside the signed
positive range. If this happens the time of day returned is out of range.
Found the problem when fiddling with the RTC and the driver where year was set
to an unexpectedly large value like 2070, e.g.:
rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 1193046:71582832:26 UTC (3155760954)
while it should be:
rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 00:15:54 UTC (3155760954)
Changing types to unsigned fixes the problem.

The function framebuffer_release just calls kfree, so calling kfree
subsequently on the same argument represents a double free. The comments with
the definition of framebuffer_release in drivers/video/fbsysfs.c suggest that
a more elaborate definition of this function is planned, such that the
splitting up of framebuffer_release and kfree as done in the second instance
might someday make sense, but it does not make sense now.
This was found using the following semantic match.

commit bd2ab67030 "md: close a livelock window
in handle_parity_checks5" introduced a bug in handling 'repair' operations.
After a repair operation completes we clear the state bits tracking this
operation. However, they are cleared too early and this results in the code
deciding to re-run the parity check operation. Since we have done the repair
in memory the second check does not find a mismatch and thus does not do a
writeback.
Test results:
$ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action
$ cat /sys/block/md0/md/mismatch_cnt
51072
$ echo repair > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_action

The random driver would essentially hang if the host's /dev/random returned
-EAGAIN. There was a test of need_resched followed by a schedule inside the
loop, but that didn't help and it's the wrong way to work anyway.
The right way is to ask for an interrupt when there is input available from
the host and handle it then rather than polling.
Now, when the host's /dev/random returns -EAGAIN, the driver asks for a wakeup
when there's randomness available again and sleeps. The interrupt routine
just wakes up whatever processes are sleeping on host_read_wait.
There is an atomic_t, host_sleep_count, which counts the number of processes
waiting for randomness. When this reaches zero, the interrupt is disabled.
An added complication is that async I/O notification was only recently added
to /dev/random (by me), so essentially all hosts will lack it. So, we use the
sigio workaround here, which is to have a separate thread poll on the
descriptor and send an interrupt when there is input on it. This mechanism is
activated when a process gets -EAGAIN (activating this multiple times is
harmless, if a bit wasteful) and deactivated by the last process still
waiting.
The module name was changed from "random" to "hw_random" in order for udev to
recognize it.
The sigio workaround needed some changes. sigio_broken was added for cases
when we know that async notification doesn't work. This is now called from
maybe_sigio_broken, which deals with pts devices.

UML's supposed nanosecond clock interacts badly with NTP when NTP
decides that the clock has drifted ahead and needs to be slowed down.
Slowing down the clock is done by decrementing the cycle-to-nanosecond
multiplier, which is 1. Decrementing that gives you 0 and time is
stopped.
This is fixed by switching to a microsecond clock, with a multiplier
of 1000.

previous tactic of declaring __kmalloc so it could be called directly
from the libc side of the house turned out to be getting too intimate
with slab, and it doesn't work with slob.
So, the uml_kmalloc wrapper is back. It calls kmalloc or whatever
that translates into, and libc code calls it.
kfree is left alone since that still works, leaving a somewhat

Because it's not correct with a non-preemptable BKL and just causes
PREEMPT kernels to have longer latencies than non-PREEMPT ones (which is
obviously not the point of it at all).
Of course, that config option actually got removed as an option earlier,
so for now this basically disables it entirely, but if BKL preemption is
ever resurrected it will be a meaningful optimization. And in the
meantime, it at least documents the intent of the code, while not doing
the wrong thing.

We should not go through the task pointer to get at the thread info,
since it's usually cheaper to just access the thread info directly.
So don't make the code look up 'current', when we can just use the
thread info accessor functions directly. This generally avoids one
level of indirection and tends to work better together with code that
also looks at other thread flags (eg preempt_count).
