Replace the array of registers passed to expressions by a struct nft_regs,

This is needed to seperate the verdict from the data registers completely,

Sebastian reported a crash caused by a jump label mismatch after resume.
This happens because we do not save the kernel text section during suspend
and therefore also do not restore it during resume, but use the kernel image
that restores the old system.
This means that after a suspend/resume cycle we lost all modifications done
to the kernel text section.
The reason for this is the pfn_is_nosave() function, which incorrectly
returns that read-only pages don't need to be saved. This is incorrect since
we mark the kernel text section read-only.
We still need to make sure to not save and restore pages contained within
NSS and DCSS segment.
To fix this add an extra case for the kernel text section and only save
those pages if they are not contained within an NSS segment.
Fixes the following crash (and the above bugs as well):

Currently, smpboot_unpark_threads() is invoked before the incoming CPU
has been added to the scheduler's runqueue structures. This might
potentially cause the unparked kthread to run on the wrong CPU, since the
correct CPU isn't fully set up yet.
That causes a sporadic, hard to debug boot crash triggering on some
systems, reported by Borislav Petkov, and bisected down to:
2a442c9c64 ("x86: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code")
This patch places smpboot_unpark_threads() in a CPU hotplug
notifier with priority set so that these kthreads are unparked just after
the CPU has been added to the runqueues.

Old versions of binutils (before 2.23) do not yet understand the
crypto-neon-fp-armv8 fpu instructions, and an attempt to build these
files results in a build failure:
arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-core.S:133: Error: selected processor does not support ARM mode `vld1.8 {q10-q11},[ip]!'
arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-core.S:133: Error: bad instruction `aese.8 q0,q8'

arch/arm/crypto/aes-ce-core.S:133: Error: bad instruction `aesmc.8 q0,q0'
Since the affected versions are still in widespread use, and this breaks
'allmodconfig' builds, we should try to at least get a successful kernel
build. Unfortunately, I could not come up with a way to make the Kconfig
symbol depend on the binutils version, which would be the nicest solution.
Instead, this patch uses the 'as-instr' Kbuild macro to find out whether
the support is present in the assembler, and otherwise emits a non-fatal
warning indicating which selected modules could not be built.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-04-11
This series contains updates to iflink, ixgbe and ixgbevf.
The entire set of changes come from Vlad Zolotarov to ultimately add
the ethtool ops to VF driver to allow querying the RSS indirection table
and RSS random key.
Currently we support only 82599 and x540 devices. On those devices, VFs
share the RSS redirection table and hash key with a PF. Letting the VF
query this information may introduce some security risks, therefore this
feature will be disabled by default.
The new netdev op allows a system administrator to change the default
behaviour with "ip link set" command. The relevant iproute2 patch has

Non interleaved V2 dualpoint touchpad / stick combos have separate stick
button bits in the touchpad packets, if we do not check these then the
trackpoint buttons will not work when using the touchpad, and when pressed
when the user starts using the touchpad will report a release event even
though the button is still pressed.
This commit fixes this by checking the separate bits, note that we simply
combine the buttons, since the hardware does the same when using the touchpad
buttons with the trackpoint, so we do not have enough information to properly
separate them.

When the left touchpad button gets pressed, and then the trackpoint is
moved, and then the button is released, the following happens:
1) touchpad packet is received, touchpad evdev node reports BTN_LEFT 1
2) pointing stick packet is received, the hw will report a BTN_LEFT 1 in
this packet because when the trackstick is active it communicates the
combined touchpad + pointing stick buttons in the trackstick packet,
since alps_report_bare_ps2_packet passes NULL (*) for the dev2 parameter
to alps_report_buttons the combining is not detected and the
pointing stick evdev node will also report BTN_LEFT 1
3) on release of the button a pointing stick packet with BTN_LEFT 0 is
received and the pointing stick evdev node will report BTN_LEFT 0
Note how because of the passing as NULL for dev2 the touchpad evdev node
will never send BTN_LEFT 0 in this scenario leading to a stuck mouse button.
This is a regression in 4.0 introduced by commit 04aae283ba
("Input: ALPS - do not mix trackstick and external PS/2 mouse data")
This commit fixes this by passing in the touchpad evdev as dev2 parameter
when calling alps_report_buttons for the pointingstick on alps v2 devices,
so that alps_report_buttons correctly detect that we're already reporting
the button as pressed via the touchpad evdev node, and will also send the
release event there.

Currently, the ACPI modalias creation covers two mutually exclusive
cases: If the PRP0001 device ID is present in the device's list of
ACPI/PNP IDs and the "compatible" property is present in _DSD, the
created modalias will follow the OF rules of modalias creation.
Otherwise, ACPI rules are used.
However, that is not really desirable, because the presence of PRP0001
in the list of device IDs generally does not preclude using other
ACPI/PNP IDs with that device and those other IDs may be of higher
priority. In those cases, the other IDs should take preference over
PRP0001 and therefore they also should be present in the modalias.
For this reason, rework the modalias creation for ACPI so that it
shows both the ACPI-style and OF-style modalias strings if the
device has a non-empty list of ACPI/PNP IDs (other than PRP0001)
and a valid "compatible" property at the same time.

Dan Carpenter pointed out that the control flow in pt_pmu_hw_init()
is a bit messy: for example the kfree(de_attrs) is entirely
superfluous.
Another problem is the inconsistent mixing of label based and
direct return error handling.
Add modern, label based error handling instead and clean up the code
a bit as well.
Note that we'll still do a kfree(NULL) in the normal case - this does
not matter as this is an init path and kfree() returns early if it
sees a NULL.

unfortunately, allowing an arbitrary 16bit value means a possibility of
overflow in the calculation of total number of pages in bio_map_user_iov() -
we rely on there being no more than PAGE_SIZE members of sum in the
first loop there. If that sum wraps around, we end up allocating
too small array of pointers to pages and it's easy to overflow it in
