Jeff Squyres c7c3de87f5 Add ummunotify support to Open MPI. See
http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm-commits&m=127352503417787&w=2 for more
details.

 * Remove the ptmalloc memory component; replace it with a new "linux"
   memory component.
 * The linux memory component will conditionally compile in support
   for ummunotify.  At run-time, if it has ummunotify support and
   finds run-time support for ummunotify (i.e., /dev/ummunotify), it
   uses it.  If not, it tries to use ptmalloc via the glibc memory
   hooks. 
 * Add some more API functions to the memory framework to accomodate
   the ummunotify model (i.e., poll to see if memory has "changed").
 * Add appropriate calls in the rcache to the new memory APIs to see
   if memory has changed, and to react accordingly.
 * Add a few comments in the openib BTL to indicate why we don't need
   to notify the OPAL memory framework about specific instances of
   registered memory.
 * Add dummy API calls in the solaris malloc component (since it
   doesn't have polling/"did memory change" support).

[disable incorrectly set]
WARNING: The special MCA parameter "%s" was set in
an unexpected way, and is likely not working the way you want it to.
Specifically, this MCA parameter is "special" in that it can *only* be
set in the environment. Setting this value in a file -- and sometimes
even on the command line -- will not work as intended. The *only* way
to set this value is to set "OMPI_MCA_%s" in the environment before
starting your job.
Value: %d

[ummunotify eaccess]
Open MPI was unable to open the UMMU notification device. This is
likely a permissions problem on the device itself. UMMU notification
support is therefore disabled in this process; an alternate memory
hook manager *may* be used instead (if available).
Local host: %s
UMMU device: %s
