Al Viro 8814b5050d section misannotation in ibmtr_cs
ibmtr_resume() is calling ibmtr_probe(), which is devinit.  Whether
that's the right thing to do there is a separate question, but
since it's PCMCIA and thus will never compile without HOTPLUG...

Al Viro 30037818f7 advansys fix on ISA-less configs
The code

        if (shost->dma_channel != NO_ISA_DMA)
                free_dma(shost->dma_channel);

in there is triggerable only if we have CONFIG_ISA (we only set ->dma_channel to
something other than NO_ISA_DMA under #ifdef CONFIG_ISA).  OTOH, free_dma() is
not guaranteed to be there in absense of CONFIG_ISA.  IOW, driver runs into
undefined symbols on PCI-but-not-ISA configs (e.g. on frv) and it's a false
positive.

Fix: put the entire if () under #ifdef CONFIG_ISA; behaviour doesn't change and
dependency on free_dma() disappears for !CONFIG_ISA.

So make sure our nr_running value is immutable and cannot change

this warning:

  kernel/cpuset.c: In function ‘generate_sched_domains’:
  kernel/cpuset.c:588: warning: ‘ndoms’ may be used uninitialized in this function

triggers because GCC does not recognize that ndoms stays uninitialized
only if doms is NULL - but that flow is covered at the end of
generate_sched_domains().

Help out GCC by initializing this variable to 0. (that's prudent anyway)

Also, this function needs a splitup and code flow simplification:
with 160 lines length it's clearly too long.

Jack Morgenstein 9a5aa622dd mlx4_core: Save/restore default port IB capability mask
Commit 7ff93f8b ("mlx4_core: Multiple port type support") introduced
support for different port types.  As part of that support, SET_PORT
is invoked to set the port type during driver startup.  However, as a
side-effect, for IB ports the invocation of this command also sets the
port's capability mask to zero (losing the default value set by FW).

To fix this, get the default ib port capabilities (via a MAD_IFC Port
Info query) during driver startup, and save them for use in the
mlx4_SET_PORT command when setting the port-type to Infiniband.

This patch fixes problems with subnet manager (SM) failover such as
<https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1183>, which occurred
because the IsTrapSupported bit in the capability mask was zeroed.

Arjan van de Ven 23d0a65cf2 toshiba_acpi: close race in toshiba_acpi driver
the toshiba ACPI driver will, in a failure case, free the rfkill state
before stopping the polling timer that would use this state. More interesting,
in the same failure case handling, it calls the exit function, which also
frees the rfkill state, but after stopping the polling.

If the race happens, a NULL pointer is passed to rfkill_force_state()
which then causes a nice dereference.

Fix the race by just not doing the too-early freeing of the rfkill state.

This appears to be the cause of a hot issue on kerneloops.org; while I
have no solid evidence of that this patch will fix the issue, the race
appears rather real.

Steven Rostedt f1eecf0e4f powerpc/ppc32: static ftrace fixes for PPC32
Impact: fix for PowerPC 32 code

There were some early init code that was not safe for static
ftrace to boot on my PowerBook. This code must only use relative
addressing, and static mcount performs a compare of the
ftrace_trace_function pointer, and gets that with an absolute address.
In the early init boot up code, this will cause a fault.

functions.

Steven Rostedt c7b0d17366 powerpc: ftrace, do nothing in mcount call for dyn ftrace
Impact: quicken mcount calls that are not replaced by dyn ftrace

Dynamic ftrace no longer does on the fly recording of mcount locations.
The mcount locations are now found at compile time. The mcount
function no longer needs to store registers and call a stub function.
It can now just simply return.

Since there are some functions that do not get converted to a nop
(.init sections and other code that may disappear), this patch should
help speed up that code.

Also, the stub for mcount on PowerPC 32 can not be a simple branch
link register like it is on PowerPC 64. According to the ABI specification:

"The _mcount routine is required to restore the link register from
 the stack so that the profiling code can be inserted transparently,
 whether or not the profiled function saves the link register itself."

This means that we must restore the link register that was used
to make the call to mcount.  The minimal mcount function for PPC32
ends up being:

 mcount:
        mflr    r0
        mtctr   r0
        lwz     r0, 4(r1)
        mtlr    r0
        bctr

Where we move the link register used to call mcount into the
ctr register, and then restore the link register from the stack.
Then we use the ctr register to jump back to the mcount caller.
The r0 register is free for us to use.

walimis c072c24975 ftrace: improve documentation
Impact: extend documentation with notice of using wild cards correctly

We know that we can use wild cards to set set_ftrace_filter, but there's
problem when using them naively such as:

   echo h* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

If there are files named with "h" prefix in current directory,
echo "h*" will echo these filenames to set_ftrace_filter, not the
intended "h*".

For example:

  $ cat /debug/tracing/available_filter_functions |grep ^hr |wc -l
  23
  $ ls
  $ touch hraa hrdd
  $ ls
  hraa  hrdd
  $ echo hr* > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
  $ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter

No output in /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter!

If we use '' to escape wild cards, it works:

  $ ls
  hraa  hrdd
  $ echo "hr*" > /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
  $ cat /debug/tracing/set_ftrace_filter |wc -l
  23

This problem can lead to unexpected result if current directory has a
lot of files.

Frederic Weisbecker 1a056155ed tracing/function-graph-tracer: adjustments of the trace informations
Impact: increase the visual qualities of the call-graph-tracer output

This patch applies various trace output formatting changes:

 - CPU is now a decimal number, followed by a parenthesis.

 - Overhead is now on the second column (gives a good visibility)

 - Cost is now on the third column, can't exceed 9999.99 us. It is
   followed by a virtual line based on a "|" character.

 - Functions calls are now the last column on the right. This way, we
   haven't dynamic column (which flow is harder to follow) on its right.

 - CPU and Overhead have their own option flag. They are default-on but you
   can disable them easily:

      echo nofuncgraph-cpu > trace_options
      echo nofuncgraph-overhead > trace_options

TODO:

_ Refactoring of the thread switch output.
_ Give a default-off option to output the thread and its pid on each row.
_ Provide headers
_ ....

Here is an example of the new trace style:

0)           |             mutex_unlock() {
0)      0.639 us |           __mutex_unlock_slowpath();

Russell King 487ff32082 Allow architectures to override copy_user_highpage()
With aliasing VIPT cache support, the ARM implementation of
clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() sets up a temporary kernel space
mapping such that we have the same cache colour as the userspace page.
This avoids having to consider any userspace aliases from this operation.

However, when highmem is enabled, kmap_atomic() have to setup mappings.
The copy_user_highpage() and clear_user_highpage() call these functions
before delegating the copies to copy_user_page() and clear_user_page().

The effect of this is that each of the *_user_highpage() functions setup
their own kmap mapping, followed by the *_user_page() functions setting
up another mapping.  This is rather wasteful.

Thankfully, copy_user_highpage() can be overriden by architectures by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE.  However, replacement of
clear_user_highpage() is more difficult because its inline definition
is not conditional.  It seems that you're expected to define
__HAVE_ARCH_ALLOC_ZEROED_USER_HIGHPAGE and provide a replacement
__alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() implementation instead.

The allocation itself is fine, so we don't want to override that.  What
we really want to do is to override clear_user_highpage() with our own
version which doesn't kmap_atomic() unnecessarily.

Other VIPT architectures (PARISC and SH) would also like to override
this function as well.

Jan Kara 52b19ac993 udf: Fix BUG_ON() in destroy_inode()
udf_clear_inode() can leave behind buffers on mapping's i_private list (when
we truncated preallocation). Call invalidate_inode_buffers() so that the list
is properly cleaned-up before we return from udf_clear_inode(). This is ugly
and suggest that we should cleanup preallocation earlier than in clear_inode()
but currently there's no such call available since drop_inode() is called under
inode lock and thus is unusable for disk operations.

Joerg Roedel b627c8b17c x86: always define DECLARE_PCI_UNMAP* macros
Impact: fix boot crash on AMD IOMMU if CONFIG_GART_IOMMU is off

Currently these macros evaluate to a no-op except the kernel is compiled
with GART or Calgary support. But we also need these macros when we have
SWIOTLB, VT-d or AMD IOMMU in the kernel. Since we always compile at
least with SWIOTLB we can define these macros always.

This patch is also for stable backport for the same reason the SWIOTLB
default selection patch is.

Heiko Carstens 0778dc3a62 [S390] Fix alignment of initial kernel stack.
We need an alignment of 16384 bytes for the initial kernel stack if
the kernel is configured for 16384 bytes stacks but the linker script
currently guarantees only an alignment of 8192 bytes.

So fix this and simply use THREAD_SIZE as alignment value which will
always do the right thing.
