2d860ad76f genirq: prevent wakeup of freed irq thread
free_irq() can remove an irqaction while the corresponding interrupt
is in progress, but free_irq() sets action->thread to NULL
unconditionally, which might lead to a NULL pointer dereference in
handle_IRQ_event() when the hard interrupt context tries to wake up
the handler thread.

Prevent this by moving the thread stop after synchronize_irq(). No
need to set action->thread to NULL either as action is going to be
freed anyway.

This fixes a boot crash reported against preempt-rt which uses the
mainline irq threads code to implement full irq threading.

e694958388 Make sock_sendpage() use kernel_sendpage()
kernel_sendpage() does the proper default case handling for when the
socket doesn't have a native sendpage implementation.

Now, arguably this might be something that we could instead solve by
just specifying that all protocols should do it themselves at the
protocol level, but we really only care about the common protocols.
Does anybody really care about sendpage on something like Appletalk? Not
likely.

94d5d1b2d8 perf_counter: Report the cloning task as parent on perf_counter_fork()
A bug in (9f498cc: perf_counter: Full task tracing) makes
profiling multi-threaded apps it go belly up.

[ output as: (PID:TID):(PPID:PTID) ]

 # ./perf report -D | grep FORK
0x4b0 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3237):(3236:3236)
0xa10 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3238):(3236:3236)
0xa70 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3239):(3236:3236)
0xad0 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3240):(3236:3236)
0xb18 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (3237:3241):(3236:3236)

Shows us that the test (27d028d perf report: Update for the new
FORK/EXIT events) in builtin-report.c:

        /*
         * A thread clone will have the same PID for both
         * parent and child.
         */
        if (thread == parent)
                return 0;

Will clearly fail.

The problem is that perf_counter_fork() reports the actual
parent, instead of the cloning thread.

Fixing that (with the below patch), yields:

 # ./perf report -D | grep FORK
0x4c8 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1590):(1589:1589)
0xbd8 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1591):(1590:1590)
0xc80 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1592):(1590:1590)
0x3338 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1593):(1590:1590)
0x66b0 [0x18]: PERF_EVENT_FORK: (1590:1594):(1590:1590)

Which both makes more sense and doesn't confuse perf report
anymore.

970892a903 perf_counter: Fix an ipi-deadlock
perf_pending_counter() is called from IRQ context and will call
perf_counter_disable(), however perf_counter_disable() uses
smp_call_function_single() which doesn't fancy being used with
IRQs disabled due to IPI deadlocks.

Fix this by making it use the local __perf_counter_disable()
call and teaching the counter_sched_out() code about pending
disables as well.

This should cover the case where a counter migrates before the
pending queue gets processed.

bcfc2602e8 perf_counter: Fix swcounter context invariance
perf_swcounter_is_counting() uses a lock, which means we cannot
use swcounters from NMI or when holding that particular lock,
this is unintended.

The below removes the lock, this opens up race window, but not
worse than the swcounters already experience due to RCU
traversal of the context in perf_swcounter_ctx_event().

This also fixes the hard lockups while opening a lockdep

	./perf record -e workqueue:workqueue_insertion:record

4d484a4a7a md: allow upper limit for resync/reshape to be set when array is read-only
Normally we only allow the upper limit for a reshape to be decreased
when the array not performing a sync/recovery/reshape, otherwise there
could be races.  But if an array is part-way through a reshape when it
is assembled the reshape is started immediately leaving no window
to set an upper bound.

If the array is started read-only, the reshape will be suspended until
the array becomes writable, so that provides a window during which it
is perfectly safe to reduce the upper limit of a reshape.

So: allow the upper limit (sync_max) to be reduced even if the reshape
thread is running, as long as the array is still read-only.

1a67dde0ab md/raid5: Properly remove excess drives after shrinking a raid5/6
We were removing the drives, from the array, but not
removing symlinks from /sys/.... and not marking the device
as having been removed.

a639755cf8 md/raid5: make sure a reshape restarts at the correct address.
This "if" don't allow for the possibility that the number of devices
doesn't change, and so sector_nr isn't set correctly in that case.
So change '>' to '>='.

67ac6011db md/raid5: allow new reshape modes to be restarted in the middle.
md/raid5 doesn't allow a reshape to restart if it involves writing
over the same part of disk that it would be reading from.
This happens at the beginning of a reshape that increases the number
of devices, at the end of a reshape that decreases the number of
devices, and continuously for a reshape that does not change the
number of devices.

The current code is correct for the "increase number of devices"
case as the critical section at the start is handled by userspace
performing a backup.

It does not work for reducing the number of devices, or the
no-change case.
For 'reducing', we need to invert the test.  For no-change we cannot
really be sure things will be safe, so simply require the array
to be read-only, which is how the user-space code which carefully
starts such arrays works.

51d5668cb2 md: never advance 'events' counter by more than 1.
When assembling arrays, md allows two devices to have different event
counts as long as the difference is only '1'.  This is to cope with
a system failure between updating the metadata on two difference
devices.

However there are currently times when we update the event count by
2.  This was done to keep the event count even when the array is clean
and odd when it is dirty, which allows us to avoid writing common
update to spare devices and so allow those spares to go to sleep.

This is bad for the above reason.  So change it to never increase by
two.  This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and
'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain, but that is only a
small cost.  The spares will get a few more updates but that will
still be spared (;-) most updates and can still go to sleep.

Prior to this patch there was a small chance that after a crash an
array would fail to assemble due to the overly large event count
mismatch.

    blktrace: remove debugfs entries on bad path

added in an explicit invocation of debugfs_remove for bt->dir, in
blk_remove_buf_file_callback we are also getting the directory removed. On
occasion I am seeing memory corruption that I have bisected down to
this commit. [The testing involves a (long) series of I/O benchmarks
with blktrace invoked around the actual runs.] I believe that this
committed patch is correct, but the problem actually lies in the code
in blk_remove_buf_file_callback.

With this patch I am able to consistently get complete runs whereas
previously I could not get a single run to complete.

The first part of the patch simply moves the debugfs_remove below the
relay_close: the relay_close call will remove files under bt->dir, and
so we should not remove the directory until all the files we created
have been removed. (Note: This is not sufficient to fix the problem -
the file system code has ref counts on the directoy, so our invocation
does not cause the directory to actually be removed. Nonetheless, we
should not rely upon that feature.)
