Based on the commit:
a586df06 "x86: Support __attribute__((__cold__)) in gcc 4.3"
some of the functions goes to the ".text.unlikely" section.
Looks like there's not many of them (I found printk, panic,
__ssb_dma_not_implemented, fat_fs_error), but still worth to
include I think.

I was debuging some module using "function" and "function_graph"
tracers and noticed, that if you load module after you enabled
tracing, the module's hooks will convert only to NOP instructions.
The attached patch enables modules' hooks if there's function trace
allready on, thus allowing to trace module functions.

The function graph tracer replaces the return address with a hook
to trace the exit of the function call. This hook will finish by
returning to the real location the function should return to.
But the current implementation uses a ret to jump to the real
return location. This causes a imbalance between calls and ret.
That is the original function does a call, the ret goes to the
handler and then the handler does a ret without a matching call.
Although the function graph tracer itself still breaks the branch
predictor by replacing the original ret, by using a second ret and
causing an imbalance, it breaks the predictor even more.
This patch replaces the ret with a jmp to keep the calls and ret
balanced. I tested this on one box and it showed a 1.7% increase in
performance. Another box only showed a small 0.3% increase. But no
box that I tested this on showed a decrease in performance by
making this change.

Bastian Blank reported a boot crash with stackprotector enabled,
and debugged it back to edx register corruption.
For historical reasons irq enable/disable/save/restore had special
calling sequences to make them more efficient. With the more
recent introduction of higher-level and more general optimisations
this is no longer necessary so we can just use the normal PVOP_
macros.
This fixes some residual bugs in the old implementations which left
edx liable to inadvertent clobbering. Also, fix some bugs in
__PVOP_VCALLEESAVE which were revealed by actual use.

This too follows the ARM change, given that the issue at hand applies to
all platforms that implement lazy D-cache writeback.
This fixes up the case when a page mapping disappears between the
flush_dcache_page() call (when PG_dcache_dirty is set for the page) and
the update_mmu_cache() call -- such as in the case of swap cache being
freed early. This kills off the mapping test in update_mmu_cache() and
switches to simply testing for PG_dcache_dirty.

On ARM, update_mmu_cache() does dcache flush for a page only if
it has a kernel mapping (page_mapping(page) != NULL). The correct
behavior would be to force the flush based on dcache_dirty bit only.
One of the cases where present logic would be a problem is when
a RAM based block device[1] is used as a swap disk. In this case,
we would have in-memory data corruption as shown in steps below:
do_swap_page()
{
- Allocate a new page (if not already in swap cache)
- Issue read from swap disk
- Block driver issues flush_dcache_page()
- flush_dcache_page() simply sets PG_dcache_dirty bit and does not
actually issue a flush since this page has no user space mapping yet.
- Now, if swap disk is almost full, this newly read page is removed
from swap cache and corrsponding swap slot is freed.
- Map this page anonymously in user space.
- update_mmu_cache()
- Since this page does not have kernel mapping (its not in page/swap
cache and is mapped anonymously), it does not issue dcache flush
even if dcache_dirty bit is set by flush_dcache_page() above.
<user now gets stale data since dcache was never flushed>
}
Same problem exists on mips too.

- brd (RAM based block device)
- ramzswap (RAM based compressed swap device)
