6db40cf047 pipe: fix check in "set size" fcntl
As it stands this check compares the number of pages to the page size.
This makes no sense and makes the fcntl fail in almost any sane case.

Fix it by checking if nr_pages is not zero (it can become zero only if
arg is too big and round_pipe_size() overflows).

1d862f4122 pipe: fix pipe buffer resizing
pipe_set_size() needs to copy pipe bufs from the old circular buffer
to the new.

The current code gets this wrong in multiple ways, resulting in oops.

b0018361c3 block: bd_start_claiming cleanup
I don't like the subtle multi-context code in bd_claim (ie.  detects where it
has been called based on bd_claiming). It seems clearer to just require a new
function to finish a 2-part claim.

Also improve commentary in bd_start_claiming as to how it should
be used.

619baba195 gianfar: Revive the driver for eTSEC devices (disable timestamping)
Since commit cc772ab7cd ("gianfar: Add
hardware RX timestamping support"), the driver no longer works on
at least MPC8313ERDB and MPC8568EMDS boards (and possibly much more
boards as well).

That's how MPC8313 Reference Manual describes RCTRL_TS_ENABLE bit:

  Timestamp incoming packets as padding bytes. PAL field is set
  to 8 if the PAL field is programmed to less than 8. Must be set
  to zero if TMR_CTRL[TE]=0.

I see that the commit above sets this bit, but it doesn't handle
TMR_CTRL. Manfred probably had this bit set by the firmware for
his boards. But obviously this isn't true for all boards in the
wild.

Also, I recall that Freescale BSPs were explicitly disabling the
timestamping because of a performance drop.

For now, the best way to deal with this is just disable the
timestamping, and later we can discuss proper device tree bindings
and implement enabling this feature via some property.

a7f5378e24 FRV: Reinstate null behaviour for the GDB remote protocol 'p' command
Reinstate the null behaviour that the in-kernel gdbstub had for the GDB
remote protocol 'p' command (retrieve a single register value) prior to
commit 7ca8b9c0da ("frv: extend gdbstub to support more features of
gdb").

Before that, the 'p' command just returned an empty reply, which causes
gdb to then go and use the 'g' command.  However, since that commit, the
'p' command returns an error string, which causes gdb to abort its
connection to the target.

Not all gdb versions are affected, some use try 'g' first, and if that
works, don't bother with 'p', and so don't see the error.

If cr0.wp=0, we have to allow the guest kernel access to a page with pte.w=0.
We do that by setting spte.w=1, since the host cr0.wp must remain set so the
host can write protect pages.  Once we allow write access, we must remove
user access otherwise we mistakenly allow the user to write the page.

Always invalidate spte and flush TLBs when changing page size, to make
sure different sized translations for the same address are never cached

Currently the only case where this occurs is when a non-leaf spte pointer is
overwritten by a leaf, large spte entry. This can happen after dirty
logging is disabled on a memslot, for example.

18e98307de broke microblaze compilation.

dma_direct_map_sg() sets sg->dma_length, however microblaze doesn't
set NEED_SG_DMA_LENGTH so scatterlist strcutres doesn't include
dma_length.

sg->dma_length is always equal to sg->length on microblaze. So we
don't need to set set dma_length, that is, microblaze can simply use
sg->length.

d87815cb20 writeback: limit write_cache_pages integrity scanning to current EOF
sync can currently take a really long time if a concurrent writer is
extending a file. The problem is that the dirty pages on the address
space grow in the same direction as write_cache_pages scans, so if
the writer keeps ahead of writeback, the writeback will not
terminate until the writer stops adding dirty pages.

For a data integrity sync, we only need to write the pages dirty at
the time we start the writeback, so we can stop scanning once we get
to the page that was at the end of the file at the time the scan
started.

This will prevent operations like copying a large file preventing
sync from completing as it will not write back pages that were
dirtied after the sync was started. This does not impact the
existing integrity guarantees, as any dirty page (old or new)
within the EOF range at the start of the scan will still be
captured.

This patch will not prevent sync from blocking on large writes into
holes. That requires more complex intervention while this patch only
addresses the common append-case of this sync holdoff.

254c8c2dbf xfs: remove nr_to_write writeback windup.
Now that the background flush code has been fixed, we shouldn't need to
silently multiply the wbc->nr_to_write to get good writeback. Remove
that code.

0b5649278e writeback: pay attention to wbc->nr_to_write in write_cache_pages
If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages
fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write
has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS:

    wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024
    wbc_writepage: towrt=1024
    wbc_writepage: towrt=0
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-1
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-5
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-21
    wbc_writepage: towrt=-85

This has adverse effects on filesystem writeback behaviour. write_cache_pages()
needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a
certain number of calls to ->writepage are made.  This is a regression
introduced by 17bc6c30cf ("vfs: Add
no_nrwrite_index_update writeback control flag"), but cannot be reverted
directly due to subsequent bug fixes that have gone in on top of it.

c3935e3049 nfsd4: shut down callback queue outside state lock
This reportedly causes a lockdep warning on nfsd shutdown.  That looks
like a false positive to me, but there's no reason why this needs the
state lock anyway.

b9b76dfaac tracing: Fix null pointer deref with SEND_SIG_FORCED

	0000000000000006
IP: [<ffffffff8107bd37>] ftrace_raw_event_signal_generate+0x87/0x140

TP_STORE_SIGINFO() forgets about SEND_SIG_FORCED, fix.

We should probably export is_si_special() and change TP_STORE_SIGINFO()
to use it in the longer term.

af0d5cb908 hp_sdc_rtc: fix broken ioctl conversion
Commit 55929332c9 "drivers: Push down BKL into various drivers"
introduced a regression in hp_sdc_rtc, caused by a missing
change of the .unlocked_ioctl pointer to the newly introduced
function.

Fixes:

	drivers/input/misc/hp_sdc_rtc.c:681: warning: initialization from
	incompatible pointer type
	drivers/input/misc/hp_sdc_rtc.c:665: warning:
	‘hp_sdc_rtc_unlocked_ioctl’ defined but not used
