0c38e1fe0f lib: turn CONFIG_STACKTRACE into an actual option.
I was puzzled why /proc/$$/stack had disappeared, until I figured out I
had disabled the last debug option that did a 'select STACKTRACE'.  This
patch makes the option show up at config time, so it can be enabled
without enabling any of the more heavyweight debug options.

c91eee56dc rhashtable: unexport and make rht_obj() static
No need to export rht_obj(), all inner to outer object translations
occur internally. It was intended to be used with rht_for_each() which
now primarily serves as the iterator for rhashtable_remove_pprev() to
effectively flush and free the full table.

d97b07c54f initramfs: support initramfs that is bigger than 2GiB
Now with 64bit bzImage and kexec tools, we support ramdisk that size is
bigger than 2g, as we could put it above 4G.

Found compressed initramfs image could not be decompressed properly.  It
turns out that image length is int during decompress detection, and it
will become < 0 when length is more than 2G.  Furthermore, during
decompressing len as int is used for inbuf count, that has problem too.

Change len to long, that should be ok as on 32 bit platform long is
32bits.

Tested with following compressed initramfs image as root with kexec.
	gzip, bzip2, xz, lzma, lzop, lz4.
run time for populate_rootfs():
   size        name       Nehalem-EX  Westmere-EX  Ivybridge-EX

4d4b866aee initrd: fix lz4 decompress with initrd
During testing initrd (>2G) support, find decompress/lz4 does not work
with initrd at all.

decompress_* should support:
1. inbuf[]/outbuf[] for kernel preboot.
2. inbuf[]/flush() for initramfs
3. fill()/flush() for initrd.

in the unlz4 does not handle case 3, as input len is passed as 0, and it
failed in first try.

Fix that add one extra if (fill) checking, and get out if EOF from the
fill().

In case 1, it passes down the BLACK color from G to p and u, and maintains

While in the comment, it marks the color of n to BLACK.  This is a typo

93b7aca35d lib/idr.c: fix out-of-bounds pointer dereference
I'm working on address sanitizer project for kernel.  Recently we
started experiments with stack instrumentation, to detect out-of-bounds
read/write bugs on stack.

Just after booting I've hit out-of-bounds read on stack in idr_for_each
(and in __idr_remove_all as well):

	struct idr_layer **paa = &pa[0];

	while (id >= 0 && id <= max) {
		...
		while (n < fls(id)) {
			n += IDR_BITS;
			p = *--paa; <--- here we are reading pa[-1] value.
		}
	}

Despite the fact that after this dereference we are exiting out of loop
and never use p, such behaviour is undefined and should be avoided.

Fix this by moving pointer derference to the beggining of the loop,
right before we will use it.

bitmap_*_region to receive and pass unsigned int.  The return types of

allow a negative error code to be returned.  An int is certainly capable
of representing any realistic return value.

knows that "nbits" is non-negative.  Since no-one passes a negative
bit-count, this shouldn't affect the semantics.

I didn't change the return type, since that might change the semantics
of some expression containing a call to bitmap_weight(). Certainly an
int is capable of holding the result.

This change is only for consistency with the changes to the other
bitmap_* functions; it doesn't change the size of the generated code:
inside BITS_TO_LONGS there is a sizeof(long), which causes bits to be

0679cc4836 lib: bitmap: make nbits parameter of bitmap_empty unsigned
Many functions in lib/bitmap.c start with an expression such as lim =
bits/BITS_PER_LONG.  Since bits has type (signed) int, and since gcc
cannot know that it is in fact non-negative, it generates worse code
than it could.  These patches, mostly consisting of changing various
parameters to unsigned, gives a slight overall code reduction:

[The increases in __bitmap_and{,not} are due to bug fixes 17/18,18/18.
No idea why bitmap_weight suddenly appears.] While 163 bytes treewide is
insignificant, I believe the bitmap functions are often called with
locks held, so saving even a few cycles might be worth it.

While making these changes, I found a few other things that might be
worth including.  16,17,18 are actual bug fixes.  The rest shouldn't
change the behaviour of any of the functions, provided no-one passed
negative nbits values.  If something should come up, it should be fairly
bisectable.

A few issues I thought about, but didn't know what to do with:

* Many of the functions misbehave if nbits is compile-time 0; the
  out-of-line functions generally handle 0 correctly.  bitmap_fill() is
  particularly bad, whether the 0 is known at compile time or not.  It
  would probably be nice to add detection of at least compile-time 0 and
  handle that appropriately.

* I didn't change __bitmap_shift_{left,right} to use unsigned because I
  want to fully understand why the algorithm works before making that
  change.  However, AFAICT, they behave correctly for all (positive) shift
  amounts.  This is not the case for the small_const_nbits versions.  If
  for example nbits = n = BITS_PER_LONG, the shift operators turn into
  no-ops (at least on x86), so one get *dst = *src, whereas one would
  expect to get *dst=0.  That difference in behaviour is somewhat
  annoying.

This patch (of 18):

The compiler can generate slightly smaller and simpler code when it
knows that "nbits" is non-negative.  Since no-one passes a negative
bit-count, this shouldn't affect the semantics.

61b3d6c48f lib: list_sort.c: Limit number of unused cmp callbacks
The helper merge_and_restore_back_links() makes sure to call the
caller's cmp function during the final ->prev pointer fixup, so that the
cmp function may call cond_resched().  However, if the cmp function does
not call cond_resched() at all, this is entirely redundant.  If it does,
doing at least two function calls for every two pointer assignments is a
bit excessive.  This patch limits the calls to once for every 256
iterations.

694123031d lib: list_sort_test(): simplify and harden cleanup
There is no reason to maintain the list structure while freeing the
debug elements.  Aside from the redundant pointer manipulations, it is
also inefficient from a locality-of-reference viewpoint, since they are
visited in a random order (wrt.  the order they were allocated).
Furthermore, if we jumped to exit: after detecting list corruption, it
is actually dangerous.

So just free the elements in the order they were allocated, using the
backing array elts.  Allocate that using kcalloc(), so that if
allocation of one of the debug element fails, we just end up calling
kfree(NULL) for the trailing elements.

Minor details: Use sizeof(*elts) instead of sizeof(void *), and return
err immediately when allocation of elts fails, to avoid introducing
another label just before the final return statement.

5f9be8248d lib/glob.c: add CONFIG_GLOB_SELFTEST
This was useful during development, and is retained for future
regression testing.

GCC appears to have no way to place string literals in a particular
section; adding __initconst to a char pointer leaves the string itself
in the default string section, where it will not be thrown away after
module load.

Thus all string constants are kept in explicitly declared and named
arrays.  Sorry this makes printk a bit harder to read.  At least the
tests are more compact.

The naming scheme used is different from the one used for
DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL though.  Change that symbol name to be
MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT for consistency.  And because the value of that
symbol comes from a similarly-named config option, rename
CONFIG_DEFAULT_MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL as well.

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/Makefile
	net/ipv6/sysctl_net_ipv6.c

Two ipv6_table_template[] additions overlap, so the index
of the ipv6_table[x] assignments needed to be adjusted.

In the drivers/net/Makefile case, we've gotten rid of the
garbage whereby we had to list every single USB networking
driver in the top-level Makefile, there is just one
"USB_NETWORKING" that guards everything.

Pull timer and time updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large update of timers, timekeeping & co

   - Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
     Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
     user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)

   - Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.

   - Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.

   - Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
     and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs.  Some of it
     definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.

   - Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.

   - A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing.  This is a
     long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
     traces.  With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
     for correlation of traces accross separate machines.

   - Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.

   - A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.

   - Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.

   - New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe.  I'm really
     impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
     manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
     specific timers.

[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]

   - Another round of code move from arch to drivers.  Looks like most
     of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for
     a few obnoxious strongholds.

   - The usual updates and fixlets all over the place"

29b88e23a9 Driver core patches for 3.17-rc1
Here's the big driver-core pull request for 3.17-rc1.
 
 Largest thing in here is the dma-buf rework and fence code, that touched
 many different subsystems so it was agreed it should go through this
 tree to handle merge issues.  There's also some firmware loading
 updates, as well as tests added, and a few other tiny changes, the
 changelog has the details.
 
 All have been in linux-next for a long time.
