EDAC never obeyed this rule: it has a single malloc function that

As this is not accepted anymore, change the allocation schema of the
EDAC *_info structs to enforce this Kernel standard.

edac: move dimm properties to struct dimm_info

On systems based on chip select rows, all channels need to use memories
with the same properties, otherwise the memories on channels A and B
won't be recognized.

However, such assumption is not true for all types of memory
controllers.

Controllers for FB-DIMM's don't have such requirements.

Also, modern Intel controllers seem to be capable of handling such
differences.

So, we need to get rid of storing the DIMM information into a per-csrow
data, storing it, instead at the right place.

The first step is to move grain, mtype, dtype and edac_mode to the
per-dimm struct.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.

2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The problems were:

1. In module removal i82875p_remove_one() is never called.

Variable i82875p_registered is newer changed from 1, which
guarantees i82875p_remove_one() is not called (and even if it were
called, it would be called in wrong order).

As a result, the edac_mc workque is not stopped and keeps probing.
If kernel debugging options are not enabled, user may not notice
anything going wrong.

if debugging options are enabled and I do "rmmod i82875p_edac", I
get:

edac debug: edac_pci_workq_function() checking
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f882d16f

Fix for this is to get rid of needles variable i82875p_registered
altogether and run i82875p_remove_one() *before*
pci_unregister_driver().

2. edac_mc_del_mc() uses mci after freeing mci

edac_mc_del_mc() calls calls edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device(). The
kobject refcount of mci drops to 0 and mci is freed. After this
mci is accessed via debug print and i82875p_remove_one() still
uses mci->pvt and tries to free mci again with edac_mc_free().

The fix for this is add kobject_get(&mci->edac_mci_kobj) after
edac_mc_alloc(). Then the mci is still available after returning
from edac_mc_del_mc() with refcount 1, and mci->pvt is still
available. When i82875p_remove_one() finally calls edac_mc_free(),
this will cause kobject_put() and mci is released properly.
