Commit [c0ff7453: cpuset,mm: fix no node to alloc memory when changing
cpuset's mems] wins a super prize for the largest number of memory
barriers entered into fast paths for one commit. [get|put]_mems_allowed
is incredibly heavy with pairs of full memory barriers inserted into a
number of hot paths. This was detected while investigating at large page
allocator slowdown introduced some time after 2.6.32. The largest portion
of this overhead was shown by oprofile to be at an mfence introduced by
this commit into the page allocator hot path.

For extra style points, the commit introduced the use of yield() in an
implementation of what looks like a spinning mutex.

This patch replaces the full memory barriers on both read and write sides
with a sequence counter with just read barriers on the fast path side.
This is much cheaper on some architectures, including x86.  The main bulk
of the patch is the retry logic if the nodemask changes in a manner that
can cause a false failure.

While updating the nodemask, a check is made to see if a false failure is
a risk. If it is, the sequence number gets bumped and parallel allocators
will briefly stall while the nodemask update takes place.

In a page fault test microbenchmark, oprofile samples from
__alloc_pages_nodemask went from 4.53% of all samples to 1.15%. The actual
results were

The overall improvement is small but the System CPU time is much improved
and roughly in correlation to what oprofile reported (these performance
figures are without profiling so skew is expected). The actual number of
page faults is noticeably improved.

For benchmarks like kernel builds, the overall benefit is marginal but
the system CPU time is slightly reduced.

To test the actual bug the commit fixed I opened two terminals. The first
ran within a cpuset and continually ran a small program that faulted 100M
of anonymous data. In a second window, the nodemask of the cpuset was
continually randomised in a loop. Without the commit, the program would
fail every so often (usually within 10 seconds) and obviously with the
commit everything worked fine. With this patch applied, it also worked
fine so the fix should be functionally equivalent.
