a7726350e0 ARM: arm-soc cleanup for 3.10
Here is a collection of cleanup patches. Among the pieces that stand out are:
 
 - The deletion of h720x platforms
 - Split of at91 non-dt platforms to their own Kconfig file to keep them separate
 - General cleanups and refactoring of i.MX and MXS platforms
 - Some restructuring of clock tables for OMAP
 - Convertion of PMC driver for Tegra to dt-only
 - Some renames of sunxi -> sun4i (Allwinner A10)
 - ... plus a bunch of other stuff that I haven't mentioned

4d26aa3054 ARM: arm-soc non-critical fixes for 3.10
Here is a collection of fixes (and some intermixed cleanups) that were
 considered less important and thus not included in the later parts of
 the 3.9-rc cycle.
 
 It's a bit all over the map, contents wise. A series of ux500 fixes
 and cleanups, a bunch of various fixes for OMAP and tegra, and some for
 Freescale i.MX and even Qualcomm MSM.
 
 Note that there's also a patch on this branch to globally turn off
 -Wmaybe-uninitialized when building with -Os. It's been posted several
 times by Arnd and no dissent was raised, but nobody seemed interested
 to pick it up. So here it is, as the topmost patch.

600fe9751a ipc_schedule_free() can do vfree() directly now
Commit 32fcfd4071 ("make vfree() safe to call from interrupt
contexts") made it safe to do vfree directly from the RCU callback,
which allows us to simplify ipc/util.c a lot by getting rid of the
differences between vmalloc/kmalloc memory.

4ada8db38a net: Restore NETIF_F_* bit ordering.
Commit 8ad227ff89 ("net: vlan: add 802.1ad support") added some new
NETIF_F_* features bits, but it added them in the middle of existing
values.

Userland depends upon the flag bits via the per-netdevice 'flags' sysfs
file.

So restore the previous ordering by adding the new flags at the end.

126de6b20b linkage.h: fix build breakage due to symbol prefix handling
Al's commit e1b5bb6d12 ("consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS
declarations") broke the build on blackfin and metag due to the
following code:

  #ifndef SYMBOL_NAME
  #ifdef CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
  #define SYMBOL_NAME(x) CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ## x
  #else
  #define SYMBOL_NAME(x) x
  #endif
  #endif
  #define __SYMBOL_NAME(x) __stringify(SYMBOL_NAME(x))

__stringify literally stringifies CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX ##x, so you get
lines like this in kernel/sys_ni.s:

  .weak CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl
  .set CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_quotactl,CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIXsys_ni_syscall

The patches in Rusty's modules-next tree such as "CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX:
cleanup." cleans up the whole mess around symbol prefixes, so this patch
just attempts to fix the build in the meantime.

The intermediate definition of SYMBOL_NAME above isn't used and is
incorrect when CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX is defined as CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX
is a quoted string literal, so define __SYMBOL_NAME directly depending
on CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX.

e8eeded3c5 ppc: Clean up rtas_flash driver somewhat
Clean up some of the problems with the rtas_flash driver:

 (1) It shouldn't fiddle with the internals of the procfs filesystem (altering
     pde->count).

 (2) If pid namespaces are in effect, then you can get multiple inodes
     connected to a single pde, thereby rendering the pde->count > 2 test
     useless.

 (3) The pde->count fudging doesn't work for forked, dup'd or cloned file
     descriptors, so add static mutexes and use them to wrap access to the
     driver through read, write and release methods.

 (4) The driver can only handle one device, so allocate most of the data
     previously attached to the pde->data as static variables instead (though
     allocate the validation data buffer with kmalloc).

 (5) We don't need to save the pde pointers as long as we have the filenames
     available for removal.

 (6) Don't try to multiplex what the update file read method does based on the
     filename.  Instead provide separate file ops and split the function.

Whilst we're at it, tabulate the procfile information and loop through it when
creating or destroying them rather than manually coding each one.

Use remove_proc_subtree() rather than remove_proc_entry() to remove a

Things could theoretically be improved by storing the drm_minor pointer in the
minor-specific dir proc_dir_entry struct data and then scrapping the list of
proc files - but that's shared with the debugfs interface where you can't do
that, so I don't see an easy way of doing it.

Also, use "%u" not "%d" to render the value and use a 12-byte buffer in which

int can give you is 10 chars (4294967295) plus a NUL, so round up to 12 as the

Don't access the proc_dir_entry in ReiserFS's r_open(), r_start() r_show()
procfs interface functions.

ReiserFS stores the ->show() method pointer in PDE->data and the super_block
pointer in PDE->parent->data.  This isn't changing.

Currently, ReiserFS passes the PDE pointer into seq_file::private from
r_open() so that r_start() and r_show() can then access it.  Instead, use
seq_open_private() to allocate a two-pointer struct that's passed through
seq_file::private and put the ->show() method and the sb pointers in there.

4a520d2769 proc: Supply an accessor for getting the data from a PDE's parent
Supply an accessor function for getting the private data from the parent
proc_dir_entry struct of the proc_dir_entry struct associated with an inode.

ReiserFS, for instance, stores the super_block pointer in the proc directory
it makes for that super_block, and a pointer to the respective seq_file show
function in each of the proc files in that directory.

This allows a reduction in the number of file_operations structs, open
functions and seq_operations structs required.  The problem otherwise is that
each show function requires two pieces of data but only has storage for one
per PDE (and this has no release function).

we can use proc subtree deletion to get rid of it and all its children.

c4558a26ff rtl8187se: Use a dir under /proc/net/r8180/
Create a dir under /proc/net/r8180/ named for the device and create that
device's files under there.  This means that there won't be a problem for
multiple devices in the system (if such is possible) and it means we don't
need to save the 'device directory' PDE any more as we can just do a proc
subtree removal.

60bc851ae5 af_unix: fix a fatal race with bit fields
Using bit fields is dangerous on ppc64/sparc64, as the compiler [1]
uses 64bit instructions to manipulate them.
If the 64bit word includes any atomic_t or spinlock_t, we can lose
critical concurrent changes.

This is happening in af_unix, where unix_sk(sk)->gc_candidate/
gc_maybe_cycle/lock share the same 64bit word.

This leads to fatal deadlock, as one/several cpus spin forever
on a spinlock that will never be available again.

A safer way would be to use a long to store flags.
This way we are sure compiler/arch wont do bad things.

As we own unix_gc_lock spinlock when clearing or setting bits,
we can use the non atomic __set_bit()/__clear_bit().

recursion_level can share the same 64bit location with the spinlock,
as it is set only with this spinlock held.

b0261926ef bnx2x: correct reading of speed capabilities
When the bnx2x driver reads the port configuration - mask irrelevant bits.

Without this change, the unintended bits may cause the driver to needlessly
toggle the link, as a comparison in the link flap avoidance flow will show
that the old link did not advertise the same capabilities and thus cannot
be retained.

debugging is enabled, the above warns the user when we are in fact
exectuting in interrupt context
interrupt context.

After some discussion, It seems that a semaphore is the proper mechanism to use
here.  While mutexes are defined to be unusable in interrupt context, no such
condition exists for semaphores (save for the fact that the non blocking api
calls, like up and down_trylock must be used when in irq context).

bf5d770bd2 init: Do not warn on non-zero initcall return
Commit f91eb62f71 ("init: scream bloody murder if interrupts are
enabled too early") added three new warnings.  The first two seemed
reasonable, but the third included a warning when an initcall returned
non-zero.  Although, the third WARN() does include an imbalanced preempt
disabled, or irqs disable, it shouldn't warn if it only had an initcall
that just returns non-zero.

In fact, according to Linus, it shouldn't print at all.  As it only
prints with initcall_debug set, and that already shows enough
information to fix things.

823e75f723 Merge branch 'ipc-scalability'
Merge IPC cleanup and scalability patches from Andrew Morton.

This cleans up many of the oddities in the IPC code, uses the list
iterator helpers, splits out locking and adds per-semaphore locks for
greater scalability of the IPC semaphore code.

Most normal user-level locking by now uses futexes (ie pthreads, but
also a lot of specialized locks), but SysV IPC semaphores are apparently
still used in some big applications, either for portability reasons, or
because they offer tracking and undo (and you don't need to have a
special shared memory area for them).

Our IPC semaphore scalability was pitiful.  We used to lock much too big
ranges, and we used to have a single ipc lock per ipc semaphore array.
Most loads never cared, but some do.  There are some numbers in the
individual commits.

d69f3bad46 ipc: sysv shared memory limited to 8TiB
Trying to run an application which was trying to put data into half of
memory using shmget(), we found that having a shmall value below 8EiB-8TiB
would prevent us from using anything more than 8TiB.  By setting
kernel.shmall greater than 8EiB-8TiB would make the job work.

In the newseg() function, ns->shm_tot which, at 8TiB is INT_MAX.

ipc/shm.c:
 458 static int newseg(struct ipc_namespace *ns, struct ipc_params *params)
 459 {
...
 465         int numpages = (size + PAGE_SIZE -1) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
...
 474         if (ns->shm_tot + numpages > ns->shm_ctlall)
 475                 return -ENOSPC;

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: make ipc/shm.c:newseg()'s numpages size_t, not int]
