7e2ad2ef85 powerpc/85xx: Make defconfigs consistent
The mpc85xx and corenet configs have many differences between them that
can't be explained by the target hardware of each config.  The next
patch will consolidate these targets using kconfig fragments; this
patch shows what the resulting defconfigs will look like (generated by
using savedefconfig on a fragment-generated config).

79cd952000 powerpc/eeh: Dump PHB diag-data for non-existing PE
When detecting EEH error on non-existing PE, including the reserved
one, the PE is simply unfrozen without dumping the PHB diag-data,
which is useful for locating the root cause of the EEH error. The
patch dumps the PHB diag-data when non-existing PE reports error.

Then there is ckpt_regs which saves the checkpointed userspace context
The MSR slot contained in ckpt_regs structure can be used during process

3b476aadbc powerpc/powernv: Add poweroff (EPOW, DPO) events support for PowerNV platform
This patch adds support for OPAL EPOW (Environmental and Power Warnings)
and DPO (Delayed Power Off) events for the PowerNV platform. These events
are generated on FSP (Flexible Service Processor) based systems. EPOW
events are generated due to various critical system conditions that
require system shutdown. A few examples of these conditions are high
ambient temperature or system running on UPS power with low UPS battery.
DPO event is generated in response to admin initiated system shutdown
request. Upon receipt of EPOW and DPO events the host kernel invokes
orderly_poweroff() for performing graceful system shutdown.

On PHB3, PE might be reserved in advance to reflect the M64 segments
consumed by the PE according to M64 BARs (exclude VF BARs) of the PCI
devices included in the PE. The PE is picked based on M64 BARs instead
of the bridge's M64 windows, which might include VF BARs. Otherwise,
wrong PE could be picked.

The patch calculates the used M64 segments and PE numbers according to
the M64 BARs, excluding VF BARs, of PCI devices in one particular PE,
instead of the bridge's M64 windows. Then the right PE number is picked.

96a2f92bf8 powerpc/powernv: Reserve M64 PEs based on BARs
On PHB3, some PEs might be reserved in advance to reflect the M64
segments consumed by those PEs. We're reserving PEs based on the
M64 window of root port, which might contain VF BAR. The PEs for
VFs are allocated dynamically, not reserved based on the consumed
M64 segments. So the M64 window of root port isn't reliable for
the task. Instead, we go through M64 BARs (VF BARs excluded) of
PCI devices under the specified root bus and reserve PEs accordingly,
as the patch does.

e9dc4d7f72 powerpc/powernv: Allow to reserve one PE for multiple times
The PE numbers are reserved according to root port's M64 window,
which is aligned to M64 segment finely. So one PE shouldn't be
reserved for multiple times. We will reserve PE numbers according
to the M64 BARs of PCI device in subsequent patches, which aren't
aligned to M64 segment size finely. It means one particular PE
could be reserved for multiple times.

The patch allows one PE to be reserved for multiple times and we
print the warning message at debugging level.

e8a4fd0afe powerpc: Add macros for the ibm_architecture_vec[] lengths
The encoding of the lengths in the ibm_architecture_vec array is
"interesting" to say the least. It's non-obvious how the number of bytes
we provide relates to the length value.

In fact we already got it wrong once, see 11e9ed43ca "Fix up
ibm_architecture_vec definition".

So add some macros to make it (hopefully) clearer. These at least have
the property that the integer present in the code is equal to the number
of bytes that follows it.

80c394fab8 cxl: Add explicit precision specifiers
C99 says that a precision given as simply '.' with no following digits
or * should be interpreted as 0. The kernel's printf implementation,
however, treats this case as if the precision was omitted. C99 also
says that if both the precision and value are 0, no digits should be
printed. Even if the kernel followed C99 to the letter, I don't think
that would be particularly useful in these cases. For consistency with
most other format strings in the file, use an explicit precision of 16
and add a 0x prefix.

01e2d0627a Revert "drm/i915: Use crtc_state->active in primary check_plane func"
This reverts commit dec4f799d0.

Jörg Otte reports a NULL pointder dereference due to this commit, as
'crtc_state' very much can be NULL:

        crtc_state = state->base.state ?
                intel_atomic_get_crtc_state(state->base.state, intel_crtc) : NULL;

So the change to test 'crtc_state->base.active' cannot possibly be
correct as-is.

There may be some other minimal fix (like just checking crtc_state for
NULL), but I'm just reverting it now for the rc2 release, and people
like Daniel Vetter who actually know this code will figure out what the
right solution is in the longer term.

75a6f82a0d freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed
Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have
the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and
has no remaining links, of course).  However, there's one case where that
does *not* happen.  Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache,
then unlink() and close().

	In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry
is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from
dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal.  In this case, though, we end
up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and
regular one (used by unlink()).  The latter will have its reference to inode
dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it
is on the ->s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure
will finally do it in.  As the result, we have the final iput() delayed
indefinitely.  It's trivial to reproduce -

void flush_dcache(void)
{
        system("mount -o remount,rw /");
}

static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024];

main()
{

Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
 "1) Fixes for a handful of smatch reports (Thanks Dan C.!) and minor
     bug fixes (patches 1-6)

  2) Correctness fixes to the BLK-mode nvdimm driver (patches 7-10).

     Granted these are slightly large for a -rc update.  They have been
     out for review in one form or another since the end of May and were
     deferred from the merge window while we settled on the "PMEM API"
     for the PMEM-mode nvdimm driver (ie memremap_pmem, memcpy_to_pmem,
     and wmb_pmem).

     Now that those apis are merged we implement them in the BLK driver
     to guarantee that mmio aperture moves stay ordered with respect to
     incoming read/write requests, and that writes are flushed through
     those mmio-windows and platform-buffers to be persistent on media.

  These pass the sub-system unit tests with the updates to
  tools/testing/nvdimm, and have received a successful build-report from
  the kbuild robot (468 configs).

892e8cac99 selinux: fix mprotect PROT_EXEC regression caused by mm change
commit 66fc130394 ("mm: shmem_zero_setup
skip security check and lockdep conflict with XFS") caused a regression
for SELinux by disabling any SELinux checking of mprotect PROT_EXEC on
shared anonymous mappings.  However, even before that regression, the
checking on such mprotect PROT_EXEC calls was inconsistent with the
checking on a mmap PROT_EXEC call for a shared anonymous mapping.  On a
mmap, the security hook is passed a NULL file and knows it is dealing
with an anonymous mapping and therefore applies an execmem check and no
file checks.  On a mprotect, the security hook is passed a vma with a
non-NULL vm_file (as this was set from the internally-created shmem
file during mmap) and therefore applies the file-based execute check
and no execmem check.  Since the aforementioned commit now marks the
shmem zero inode with the S_PRIVATE flag, the file checks are disabled
and we have no checking at all on mprotect PROT_EXEC.  Add a test to
the mprotect hook logic for such private inodes, and apply an execmem
check in that case.  This makes the mmap and mprotect checking
consistent for shared anonymous mappings, as well as for /dev/zero and
ashmem.

01ab605704 parisc: Fix some PTE/TLB race conditions and optimize __flush_tlb_range based on timing results
The increased use of pdtlb/pitlb instructions seemed to increase the
frequency of random segmentation faults building packages. Further, we
had a number of cases where TLB inserts would repeatedly fail and all
forward progress would stop. The Haskell ghc package caused a lot of
trouble in this area. The final indication of a race in pte handling was
this syslog entry on sibaris (C8000):

 swap_free: Unused swap offset entry 00000004
 BUG: Bad page map in process mysqld  pte:00000100 pmd:019bbec5
 addr:00000000ec464000 vm_flags:00100073 anon_vma:0000000221023828 mapping: (null) index:ec464
 CPU: 1 PID: 9176 Comm: mysqld Not tainted 4.0.0-2-parisc64-smp #1 Debian 4.0.5-1
 Backtrace:
  [<0000000040173eb0>] show_stack+0x20/0x38
  [<0000000040444424>] dump_stack+0x9c/0x110

  [<00000000402ba2a4>] SyS_madvise+0x404/0x8c0

Note that the pte value is 0 except for the accessed bit 0x100. This bit
shouldn't be set without the present bit.

It should be noted that the madvise system call is probably a trigger for many
of the random segmentation faults.

In looking at the kernel code, I found the following problems:

1) The pte_clear define didn't take TLB lock when clearing a pte.
2) We didn't test pte present bit inside lock in exception support.
3) The pte and tlb locks needed to merged in order to ensure consistency
between page table and TLB. This also has the effect of serializing TLB
broadcasts on SMP systems.

The attached change implements the above and a few other tweaks to try
to improve performance. Based on the timing code, TLB purges are very
slow (e.g., ~ 209 cycles per page on rp3440). Thus, I think it
beneficial to test the split_tlb variable to avoid duplicate purges.
Probably, all PA 2.0 machines have combined TLBs.

I dropped using __flush_tlb_range in flush_tlb_mm as I realized all
applications and most threads have a stack size that is too large to
make this useful. I added some comments to this effect.

Since implementing 1 through 3, I haven't had any random segmentation
faults on mx3210 (rp3440) in about one week of building code and running
as a Debian buildd.
