orangefs: integrate readahead cache changes from out-of-tree

The readahead cache has long been present as a compile time option to
OrangeFS. As it had not been tested in some time, it was disabled by
default. Recently, Walt Ligon started work reviving it, which eventually
culminated in the commit below to OrangeFS SVN.

r12519 | walt | 2016-07-13 14:32:42 -0400 (Wed, 13 Jul 2016) | 1 line
reintegrating readahead cache code

This cache is implemented almost entirely in userspace. There are a few
parameters exposed via sysfs, and the cache must be flushed after an
inode is released.

KVM: x86: use hardware-compatible format for APIC ID register

We currently always shift APIC ID as if APIC was in xAPIC mode.
x2APIC mode wants to use more bits and storing a hardware-compabible
value is the the sanest option.

KVM API to set the lapic expects that bottom 8 bits of APIC ID are in
top 8 bits of APIC_ID register, so the register needs to be shifted in
x2APIC mode.

KVM: x86: support using the vmx preemption timer for tsc deadline timer

The VMX preemption timer can be used to virtualize the TSC deadline timer.
The VMX preemption timer is armed when the vCPU is running, and a VMExit
will happen if the virtual TSC deadline timer expires.

When the vCPU thread is blocked because of HLT, KVM will switch to use
an hrtimer, and then go back to the VMX preemption timer when the vCPU
thread is unblocked.

This solution avoids the complex OS's hrtimer system, and the host
timer interrupt handling cost, replacing them with a little math
(for guest->host TSC and host TSC->preemption timer conversion)
and a cheaper VMexit. This benefits latency for isolated pCPUs.

[A word about performance... Yunhong reported a 30% reduction in average
latency from cyclictest. I made a similar test with tscdeadline_latency
from kvm-unit-tests, and measured

- ~20 clock cycles loss (out of ~3200, so less than 1% but still
statistically significant) in the worst case where the test halts
just after programming the TSC deadline timer

- ~800 clock cycles gain (25% reduction in latency) in the best case
where the test busy waits.

I removed the VMX bits from Yunhong's patch, to concentrate them in the
next patch - Paolo]
