Subject: [PATCH] padata: downgrade padata_do_multithreaded to serial execution
for non-SMP
hugetlb parallelization depends on PADATA, and PADATA depends on SMP.
PADATA consists of two distinct functionality: One part is
padata_do_multithreaded which disregards order and simply divides tasks
into several groups for parallel execution. Hugetlb init parallelization
depends on padata_do_multithreaded.
The other part is composed of a set of APIs that, while handling data in
an out-of-order parallel manner, can eventually return the data with
ordered sequence. Currently Only `crypto/pcrypt.c` use them.
All users of PADATA of non-SMP case currently only use
padata_do_multithreaded. It is easy to implement a serial one in
include/linux/padata.h. And it is not necessary to implement another
functionality unless the only user of crypto/pcrypt.c does not depend on
SMP in the future.
