In some cases acpi_device_wakeup() may be called to ensure wakeup
power to be off for a given device even though that device's wakeup
GPE has not been enabled so far. It calls acpi_disable_gpe() on a
GPE that's not enabled and this causes ACPICA to return the AE_LIMIT
status code from that call which then is reported as an error by the
ACPICA's debug facilities (if enabled). This may lead to a fair
amount of confusion, so introduce a new ACPI device wakeup flag
to store the wakeup GPE status and avoid disabling wakeup GPEs
that have not been enabled.

Since multicast frames are marked as no-ack, using
IEEE80211_TX_STAT_ACK to check if they have been
successfully transmitted by the driver is incorrect
since a driver can choose to ignore transmission status
for no-ack frames. This results in incorrect accounting
for such frames.
To fix this issue, this patch introduces a new flag
that can be used by drivers to indicate error-free
transmission of no-ack frames.

We already do have the length field in the struct iio_buffer which is
expected to be in sync with the current size of the buffer. And currently

the IIO core with directly accessing the length field of the buffer.

There haven't been any users of the get_bytes_per_datum() callback for a

iio_compute_scan_bytes() is used to compute this number. So remove the
callback.

Originally device and buffer registration were kept as separate operations
in IIO to allow to register two distinct sets of channels for buffered and
non-buffered operations. This has since already been further restricted and
the channel set registered for the buffer needs to be a subset of the
channel set registered for the device. Additionally the possibility to not
have a raw (or processed) attribute for a channel which was registered for
the device was added a while ago. This means it is possible to not register
any device level attributes for a channel even if it is registered for the
device. Also if a channel's scan_index is set to -1 and the channel is
registered for the buffer it is ignored.
So in summary it means it is possible to register the same channel array for
both the device and the buffer yet still end up with distinctive sets of
channels for both of them. This makes the argument for having to have to
manually register the channels for both the device and the buffer invalid.
Considering that the vast majority of all drivers want to register the same
set of channels for both the buffer and the device it makes sense to move
the buffer registration into the core to avoid some boiler-plate code in the
device driver setup path.

Individual drivers should not be messing with the scan mask that contains
the list of enabled channels. This is something that is supposed to be
managed by the core.
Now that the last few drivers that used it to configure a default scan mask
have been updated to not do this anymore we can unexport the function.
Note, this patch also requires moving a few functions around so they are all
declared before the first internal user.

There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and
wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers
and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For
example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync
instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed
is an lsync or eieio instruction.
This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers
rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the
same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a
barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on
ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows:
Barrier Call Explanation
--------- -------- ----------------------------------
rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system
dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable
smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable
These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb().
Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent
memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of
reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the
CPU and a device.
It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't
provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without
resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to
be gained in trying to define such a function.

- Expose the knob to user space through a proc file /proc/<pid>/setgroups
A value of "deny" means the setgroups system call is disabled in the
current processes user namespace and can not be enabled in the
future in this user namespace.
A value of "allow" means the segtoups system call is enabled.
- Descendant user namespaces inherit the value of setgroups from
their parents.
- A proc file is used (instead of a sysctl) as sysctls currently do
not allow checking the permissions at open time.
- Writing to the proc file is restricted to before the gid_map
for the user namespace is set.
This ensures that disabling setgroups at a user namespace
level will never remove the ability to call setgroups
from a process that already has that ability.
A process may opt in to the setgroups disable for itself by
creating, entering and configuring a user namespace or by calling
setns on an existing user namespace with setgroups disabled.
Processes without privileges already can not call setgroups so this
is a noop. Prodcess with privilege become processes without
privilege when entering a user namespace and as with any other path
to dropping privilege they would not have the ability to call
setgroups. So this remains within the bounds of what is possible
without a knob to disable setgroups permanently in a user namespace.

On some ARMs the memory can be mapped pgprot_noncached() and still
be working for atomic operations. As pointed out by Colin Cross
<ccross@android.com>, in some cases you do want to use
pgprot_noncached() if the SoC supports it to see a debug printk
just before a write hanging the system.
On ARMs, the atomic operations on strongly ordered memory are
implementation defined. So let's provide an optional kernel parameter
for configuring pgprot_noncached(), and use pgprot_writecombine() by
default.

"This became a fairly large pull request. In addition to the usual
driver updates / fixes, there have been a high amount of cleanups in
ASoC area, as well as control API helpers and kernel documentations
fixes touching through the whole tree.

Pull devicetree changes from Grant Likely:
"Lots of activity in the devicetree code for v3.18. Most of it is
related to getting all of the overlay support code in place, but there
are other important things in there.
Highlights:
- OF_RECONFIG notifiers for SPI, I2C and Platform devices. Those
subsystems can now respond to live changes to the device tree.
- CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY method for applying live changes to the device
tree
- Removal of the of_allnodes list. This used to be used to iterate
over all the nodes in the device tree, but it is unnecessary
because the same thing can be done by iterating over the list of
child pointers. Getting rid of of_allnodes saves some memory and
avoids the possibility of of_allnodes being sorted differently from
the child lists.
- Support for retrieving original DTB blob via sysfs. Needed by
kexec.
- More unittests
- Documentation and minor bug fixes"

Add the required firmware commands for A0 steering and a way to enable
that. The firmware support focuses on INIT_HCA, QUERY_HCA, QUERY_PORT,
QUERY_DEV_CAP and QUERY_FUNC_CAP commands. Those commands are used
to configure and query the device.
The different A0 DMFS (steering) modes are:
Static - optimized performance, but flow steering rules are
limited. This mode should be choosed explicitly by the user
in order to be used.
Dynamic - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
In this mode, the FW works in optimized steering mode as long as
it can and afterwards automatically drops to classic (full) DMFS.
Disable - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
The user instructs the system not to use optimized steering, even if
the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS (and thus will be able to use optimized
steering in Default A0 DMFS mode).
Default - this mode is implicitly choosed. In this mode, if the FW
supports Dynamic A0 DMFS, it'll work in this mode. Otherwise, it'll
work at Disable A0 DMFS mode.
Under SRIOV configuration, when the A0 steering mode is enabled,
older guest VF drivers who aren't using the RX QP allocation flag
(MLX4_RESERVE_A0_QP) will get a QP from the general range and
fail when attempting to register a steering rule. To avoid that,
the PF context behaviour is changed once on A0 static mode, to
require support for the allocation flag in VF drivers too.
In order to enable A0 steering, we use log_num_mgm_entry_size param.
If the value of the parameter is not positive, we treat the absolute
value of log_num_mgm_entry_size as a bit field. Setting bit 2 of this
bit field enables static A0 steering.

A0 hybrid steering is a form of high performance flow steering.
By using this mode, mlx4 cards use a fast limited table based steering,
in order to enable fast steering of unicast packets to a QP.
In order to implement A0 hybrid steering we allocate resources
from different zones:
(1) General range
(2) Special MAC-assigned QPs [RSS, Raw-Ethernet] each has its own region.
When we create a rss QP or a raw ethernet (A0 steerable and BF ready) QP,
we try hard to allocate the QP from range (2). Otherwise, we try hard not
to allocate from this range. However, when the system is pushed to its
limits and one needs every resource, the allocator uses every region it can.
Meaning, when we run out of raw-eth qps, the allocator allocates from the
general range (and the special-A0 area is no longer active). If we run out
of RSS qps, the mechanism tries to allocate from the raw-eth QP zone. If that
is also exhausted, the allocator will allocate from the general range
(and the A0 region is no longer active).
Note that if a raw-eth qp is allocated from the general range, it attempts
to allocate the range such that bits 6 and 7 (blueflame bits) in the
QP number are not set.
When the feature is used in SRIOV, the VF has to notify the PF what
kind of QP attributes it needs. In order to do that, along with the
"Eth QP blueflame" bit, we reserve a new "A0 steerable QP". According
to the combination of these bits, the PF tries to allocate a suitable QP.
In order to maintain backward compatibility (with older PFs), the PF
notifies which QP attributes it supports via QUERY_FUNC_CAP command.

When using BF (Blue-Flame), the QPN overrides the VLAN, CV, and SV fields
in the WQE. Thus, BF may only be used for QPNs with bits 6,7 unset.
The current Ethernet driver code reserves a Tx QP range with 256b alignment.
This is wrong because if there are more than 64 Tx QPs in use,
QPNs >= base + 65 will have bits 6/7 set.
This problem is not specific for the Ethernet driver, any entity that
tries to reserve more than 64 BF-enabled QPs should fail. Also, using
ranges is not necessary here and is wasteful.
The new mechanism introduced here will support reservation for
"Eth QPs eligible for BF" for all drivers: bare-metal, multi-PF, and VFs
(when hypervisors support WC in VMs). The flow we use is:
1. In mlx4_en, allocate Tx QPs one by one instead of a range allocation,
and request "BF enabled QPs" if BF is supported for the function
2. In the ALLOC_RES FW command, change param1 to:
a. param1[23:0] - number of QPs
b. param1[31-24] - flags controlling QPs reservation
Bit 31 refers to Eth blueflame supported QPs. Those QPs must have
bits 6 and 7 unset in order to be used in Ethernet.
Bits 24-30 of the flags are currently reserved.
When a function tries to allocate a QP, it states the required attributes
for this QP. Those attributes are considered "best-effort". If an attribute,
such as Ethernet BF enabled QP, is a must-have attribute, the function has
to check that attribute is supported before trying to do the allocation.
In a lower layer of the code, mlx4_qp_reserve_range masks out the bits
which are unsupported. If SRIOV is used, the PF validates those attributes
and masks out unsupported attributes as well. In order to notify VFs which
attributes are supported, the VF uses QUERY_FUNC_CAP command. This command's
mailbox is filled by the PF, which notifies which QP allocation attributes
it supports.

Previously, we've fired all our completion callbacks straight from our ISR.
Some of those callbacks were lightweight (for example, mlx4_en's and
IPoIB napi callbacks), but some of them did more work (for example,
the user-space RDMA stack uverbs' completion handler). Besides that,
doing more than the minimal work in ISR is generally considered wrong,
it could even lead to a hard lockup of the system. Since when a lot
of completion events are generated by the hardware, the loop over those
events could be so long, that we'll get into a hard lockup by the system
watchdog.
In order to avoid that, add a new way of invoking completion events
callbacks. In the interrupt itself, we add the CQs which receive completion
event to a per-EQ list and schedule a tasklet. In the tasklet context
we loop over all the CQs in the list and invoke the user callback.

virtio_cread_bytes is implemented incorrectly in case length happens to
