ASoC: Fixes for v3.11
A few driver specific fixes here plus one core fix for a memory
corruption issue in DAPM initialisation which could lead to crashes.
The Tegra30 I2S driver was writing the AHUB interface parameters to the
playback path register rather than the capture path register. This
caused the capture parameters not to be configured at all, so if
capturing using non-HW-default parameters (e.g. 16-bit stereo rather
than 8-bit mono) the audio would be corrupted.
With this fixed, audio capture from an analog microphone works correctly
on the Cardhu board.

commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.
tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm
The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table
which is send to the kernel. No direct parameter were
transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting.
The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
removed the use of the rate table system.
To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects
the linklayer by parsing the rate table. It also supports future
versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the
kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in
struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but
only using the lower 4 bits of this field.
Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because
at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that
several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM
detect. Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at
1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have
been more broken than we first realized.

Example to configure an ipip tunnel:
modprobe ipip
ip netns add netns1

ip l s ipip1 netns netns1

ip netns exec netns1 ip a a dev ipip1 192.168.2.123 remote 192.168.2.121
or an ip6_tunnel:
modprobe ip6_tunnel
ip netns add netns1
ip link add ip6tnl1 type ip6tnl remote 2001:660:3008:c1c3::121 local 2001:660:3008:c1c3::123

packet is decapsulated and injecting into the corresponding interface which
stands to another netns.
When one of the two netns is removed, the tunnel is destroyed.

It doesn't make sense to output a tunnel packet using the same
parameters that it was received with since that will generally
just result in the packet going back to us. As a result, userspace
assumes that the tunnel key is cleared when transitioning through
the switch. In the majority of cases this doesn't matter since a
packet is either going to a tunnel port (in which the key is
overwritten with new values) or to a non-tunnel port (in which
case the key is ignored). However, it's theoreticaly possible that
userspace could rely on the documented behavior, so this corrects
it.

Fix the iproute2 command `bridge vlan show`, after switching from
rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg.
Let's start with a little history:
Feb 20: Vlad Yasevich got his VLAN-aware bridge patchset included in
the 3.9 merge window.
In the kernel commit 6cbdceeb, he added attribute support to
bridge GETLINK requests sent with rtgenmsg.
Mar 6th: Vlad got this iproute2 reference implementation of the bridge
vlan netlink interface accepted (iproute2 9eff0e5c)
Apr 25th: iproute2 switched from using rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg (63338dca)
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/239602/http://marc.info/?t=136680900700007
Apr 28th: Linus released 3.9
Apr 30th: Stephen released iproute2 3.9.0
The `bridge vlan show` command haven't been working since the switch to
ifinfomsg, or in a released version of iproute2. Since the kernel side
only supports rtgenmsg, which iproute2 switched away from just prior to
the iproute2 3.9.0 release.
I haven't been able to find any documentation, about neither rtgenmsg
nor ifinfomsg, and in which situation to use which, but kernel commit
88c5b5ce seams to suggest that ifinfomsg should be used.
Fixing this in kernel will break compatibility, but I doubt that anybody
have been using it due to this bug in the user space reference
implementation, at least not without noticing this bug. That said the
functionality is still fully functional in 3.9, when reversing iproute2
commit 63338dca.
This could also be fixed in iproute2, but thats an ugly patch that would
reintroduce rtgenmsg in iproute2, and from searching in netdev it seams
like rtgenmsg usage is discouraged. I'm assuming that the only reason
that Vlad implemented the kernel side to use rtgenmsg, was because
iproute2 was using it at the time.

Recently we met quite a lot of random kernel panic issues after enabling

to do with following bug in pagemap:
In struct pagemapread:
struct pagemapread {
int pos, len;
pagemap_entry_t *buffer;
bool v2;
};
pos is number of PM_ENTRY_BYTES in buffer, but len is the size of
buffer, it is a mistake to compare pos and len in add_page_map() for
checking buffer is full or not, and this can lead to buffer overflow and
random kernel panic issue.
Correct len to be total number of PM_ENTRY_BYTES in buffer.

The i.MX28 RTC can be easily brought into a state in which the RTC is

which is a false positive caused by hugetlb pmd sharing code which
allocates a new pmd from withing mapping->i_mmap_mutex. If this
allocation causes reclaim then the lockdep detector complains that we
might self-deadlock.
This is not correct though, because hugetlb pages are not reclaimable so
their mapping will be never touched from the reclaim path.
The patch tells lockup detector that hugetlb i_mmap_mutex is special by
assigning it a separate lockdep class so it won't report possible
deadlocks on unrelated mappings.
