_STK_LIM_MAX could be used to override the RLIMIT_STACK hard limit from
an arch's include/uapi/asm-generic/resource.h file, but is no longer
used since both parisc and metag removed the override. Therefore remove
it entirely, setting the hard RLIMIT_STACK limit to RLIM_INFINITY
directly in include/asm-generic/resource.h.

Apps are increasingly using more than 1024 file descriptors. See
discussion in several distro bug trackers, e.g. BugLink:
http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663090https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-2054
You don't want to raise the default soft limit, since that might break
apps that use select(), but it's safe to raise the default hard limit;
that way, apps that know they need lots of file descriptors can raise
their soft limit without needing root, and without user intervention.
Ubuntu is doing this with a kernel change because they have a policy of
not changing kernel defaults in userland.
While 4096 might not be enough for *all* apps, it seems to be plenty for
the apps I've seen lately that are unhappy with 1024.

Introduce a new rlimit that allows the user to set a runtime timeout on
real-time tasks their slice. Once this limit is exceeded the task will receive
SIGXCPU.
So it measures runtime since the last sleep.

Devan Lippman noticed that the RLIMIT_CPU comment in resource.h is
incorrect: the field is in seconds, not msecs. We used msecs in
earlier versions of the patch but that got changed.

Add a pair of rlimits for allowing non-root tasks to raise nice and rt
priorities. Defaults to traditional behavior. Originally written by
Chris Wright.
The patch implements a simple rlimit ceiling for the RT (and nice) priorities
a task can set. The rlimit defaults to 0, meaning no change in behavior by
default. A value of 50 means RT priority levels 1-50 are allowed. A value of
100 means all 99 privilege levels from 1 to 99 are allowed. CAP_SYS_NICE is
blanket permission.

tips on integrating this with PAM).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
