There is no reason why task in balance_dirty_pages() shouldn't be killable
and it helps in recovering from some error conditions (like when filesystem
goes in error state and cannot accept writeback anymore but we still want to
kill processes using it to be able to unmount it).
There will be follow up patches to further abort the generic_perform_write()
and other filesystem write loops, to avoid large write + SIGKILL combination
exceeding the dirty limit and possibly strange OOM.

The current implementation of dmi_name_in_vendors() is an invitation to
lazy coding and false positives [1]. Searching for a string in 8 know
what you're looking for, so you should know where to look. strstr isn't
fast, especially when it fails, so we should avoid calling it when it
just can't succeed.
Looking at the current users of the function, it seems clear to me that
they are looking for a system or board vendor name, so let's limit
dmi_name_in_vendors to these two DMI fields. This much better matches
the function name, BTW.
[1] We currently have code looking for short names in DMI data, such as
"IBM", "ASUS" or "Acer". I let you guess what will happen the day other
vendors ship products named, for example, "SCHREIBMEISTER", "PEGASUS" or
"Acerola".

Commit c9f01245 ("oom: remove oom_disable_count") has removed the
oom_disable_count counter which has been used for early break out from
oom_badness so we could never select a task with oom_score_adj set to
OOM_SCORE_ADJ_MIN (oom disabled).
Now that the counter is gone we are always going through heuristics
calculation and we always return a non zero positive value. This means
that we can end up killing a task with OOM disabled because it is
indistinguishable from regular tasks with 1% resp. CAP_SYS_ADMIN tasks
with 3% usage of memory or tasks with oom_score_adj set but OOM enabled.
Let's break out early if the task should have OOM disabled.

The driver for the DigsyMTC display configuration EEPROMs device got
added by commit 469dded183 ("misc/eeprom: add eeprom access driver for
digsy_mtc board"). Its Kconfig symbol depends on PPC_MPC5200_GPIO. But
at the time that driver got added PPC_MPC5200_GPIO was already renamed
to GPIO_MPC5200, by commit 6eae1ace68 ("gpio: Move mpc5200 gpio driver
to drivers/gpio").
So make this driver depend on GPIO_MPC5200. And since GPIO_MPC5200
itself implies that GPIOLIB is set, that dependency can be dropped.

'readelf -n' on the s390 vmlinux file generates lots of warnings about
corrupt notes. The reason is that the 'NOTE' program header has incorrect
file and memory sizes. The problem is that the section following the
NOTES section do not switch to a different phdr and they get added to
the NOTE program section. Add a dummy entry to the linker script that
switches to the data phdr before the start of the RODATA section.

commit 27641c3f (drm/vblank: Add support for precise vblank
timestamping) adds preempt_disable()/enable() around a spin locked
section with the comments:
* Disable preemption, so vblank_time_lock is held as short as
* possible, even under a kernel with PREEMPT_RT patches.
/* Disable preemption while holding vblank_time_lock. Do
* it explicitely to guard against PREEMPT_RT kernel.
Just that this has never been tested on a RT kernel which would have
granted that nonsense with a might_sleep() warning because
dev->vblank_time_lock is converted to a "sleeping" spinlock on RT.
So this is activly wrong on RT and superflous on mainline. Remove it.

Commit 31a3ddda16 introduced
a use after free in virtio-pci. The main issue is
that the release method signals removal of the virtio device,
while remove signals removal of the pci device.
For example, on driver removal or hot-unplug,
virtio_pci_release_dev is called before virtio_pci_remove.
We then might get a crash as virtio_pci_remove tries to use the
device freed by virtio_pci_release_dev.
We allocate/free all resources together with the
pci device, so we can leave the release method empty.

After commit e978aa7d7d ("cpuidle: Move dev->last_residency update to
driver enter routine; remove dev->last_state") setting acpi_idle_suspend
to 1 by acpi_processor_suspend() causes the ACPI cpuidle routines to
return error codes continuously, which in turn causes cpuidle to lock up
(hard).
However, acpi_idle_suspend doesn't appear to be useful for any
particular purpose (it's racy and doesn't really provide any real
protection), so it can be removed, which makes the problem go away.
