[PATCH v2] irq: use per_cpu kstat_irqs

From: Eric Dumazet
Date: Fri Nov 05 2010 - 12:07:08 EST


Use modern per_cpu API to increment {soft|hard}irq counters, and
use per_cpu allocation for (struct irq_desc)->kstats_irq instead of an
array.

This gives better SMP/NUMA locality and saves few instructions per irq.

With small nr_cpuids values (8 for example), kstats_irq was a small
array (less than L1_CACHE_BYTES), potentially source of false sharing.

In the !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ case, remove the huge, NUMA/cache unfriendly
kstat_irqs_all[NR_IRQS][NR_CPUS] array.

Note : we still populate kstats_irq for all possible irqs in
early_irq_init(). We probably could use on-demand allocations.
(Code included in alloc_descs()).
Problem is not all IRQS are used with a prior alloc_descs() call.

kstat_irqs_this_cpu() is not used anymore, remove it.

V2: support for !CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ
No white space changes.

Question : Is dynamic percpu allocator ready at this stage for all
arches ? The need is NR_IRQS*4 bytes of percpu memory for
!CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ
