[GIT PULL] Please pull hwpoison updates for 2.6.37

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

Linus,

Here are the hwpoison updates for 2.6.37. The main new feature is 
soft offlining support for huge pages: support to predictively offline 
hugepages based on corrected memory error statistics.  
This can be a large win in memory reliability in some setups
and is transparent to applications.
We already supported that for small pages, but now have it for 
large pages too, because some large memory users like to use those.

Thanks to Naoya-san for spending a lot of time on that
and also cleaning up some code on the way.

This also is the basis for generic huge page migration (most of
the infrastructure is there, but not fully hooked up yet), which
will also give some NUMA tuning benefits.

Also various cleanups and improvements to hwpoison code.

There are some changes outside the usual hwpoison files,
which were needed to implement these features:

Signals:
- IA64 signal fix for _addr_lsb. Similar to the earlier MIPS change.
Acked by Tony.
- signalfd.h fix (from Seto-san): Same fix as for ia64 for signalfd.
This is all really just to report the _addr_lsb siginfo field out to
user space, so that it knows how much memory got corrupted. 
The code for siginfo is unfortunately scattered all over
the tree and I didn't find anyone who felt responsible for it.

- x86 hwpoison signal reporting fix. I tried to get an ack for that,
but wasn't able to motivate the x86 maintainers to reply to their emails.
Basically just pass around the address granuality from handle_mm_fault
to the hwpoison code in fault.c when an error happens.

MM:
- Some fixes to handle_memory_fault() to pass out the error
granuality in the return code. Does not affect any non hwpoison path.
- Migration changes for huge pages.
The migration code has been reviewed extensively by Christoph Lameter.
- hugetlb changes for migration. Have been reviewed by Mel.
- rmap changes for hugetlb migration, including the cleanups you requested 
in the last review cycle. Acked by Rik and others.

Please consider pulling,

Thanks,
-Andi
