83b519e8b9 slab: setup allocators earlier in the boot sequence
This patch makes kmalloc() available earlier in the boot sequence so we can get
rid of some bootmem allocations. The bulk of the changes are due to
kmem_cache_init() being called with interrupts disabled which requires some
changes to allocator boostrap code.

Note: 32-bit x86 does WP protect test in mem_init() so we must setup traps
before we call mem_init() during boot as reported by Ingo Molnar:

  We have a hard crash in the WP-protect code:

As a preparation for initializing the slab allocator early, make sure the

otherwise we'd need a flag day for switching to early slab.

3c7b4e6b8b kmemleak: Add the base support
This patch adds the base support for the kernel memory leak
detector. It traces the memory allocation/freeing in a way similar to
the Boehm's conservative garbage collector, the difference being that
the unreferenced objects are not freed but only shown in
/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak. Enabling this feature introduces an
overhead to memory allocations.

8be6e8f3c3 perf_counter: Rename L2 to LL cache
The top (fastest) and last level (biggest) caches are the most
interesting ones, performance wise.

f0e8527726 moxa: prevent opening unavailable ports
In moxa.c there are 32 minor numbers reserved for each device. The
number of ports actually available per device is stored in
moxa_board_conf->numPorts. This number is not considered in moxa_open().
Opening a port that is not available results in a kernel oops.
This patch adds a test to moxa_open() that prevents opening unavailable
ports.
