738b0343e7 Revert "ethtool: Add n-tuple string length to drvinfo and return it"
This reverts commit c79c5ffdce.

As Jeff points out we can't break the user visible interface
like this, we need to add this into the reserved[] thing.

58c24a6161 block: remove padding from io_context on 64bit builds
On 64 bit builds when CONFIG_BLK_CGROUP=n (the default) this removes 8
bytes of padding from structure io_context and drops its size from 72 to
64 bytes, so needing one fewer cachelines and allowing more objects per
slab in it's kmem_cache.

086fa5ff08 block: Rename blk_queue_max_sectors to blk_queue_max_hw_sectors
The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_<limit name>.
blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion.
Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to
set max_hw_sectors.

Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability.  This can
be removed after the merge window is closed.

d76a0812ac perf_events: Add new start/stop PMU callbacks
In certain situations, the kernel may need to stop and start the same
event rapidly. The current PMU callbacks do not distinguish between stop
and release (i.e., stop + free the resource). Thus, a counter may be
released, then it will be immediately re-acquired. Event scheduling will
again take place with no guarantee to assign the same counter. On some
processors, this may event yield to failure to assign the event back due
to competion between cores.

This patch is adding a new pair of callback to stop and restart a counter
without actually release the underlying counter resource. On stop, the
counter is stopped, its values saved and that's it. On start, the value
is reloaded and counter is restarted (on x86, actual restart is delayed
until perf_enable()).

Keycodes in 248 - 254 range were reserved for special needs (scrolling)
of atkbd driver. Now that the driver has been switched to use unsigned
short keycodes instead of unsigned char we can release this range back
into pull. We keep code 255 (ATKBD_KEY_NULL) reserved since users may
have been using it to silence keys they do not care about since atkbd
silently drops scancodes mapped to this keycode.

86c38a31aa tracing: Fix ftrace_event_call alignment for use with gcc 4.5
GCC 4.5 introduces behavior that forces the alignment of structures to
 use the largest possible value. The default value is 32 bytes, so if
 some structures are defined with a 4-byte alignment and others aren't
 declared with an alignment constraint at all - it will align at 32-bytes.

 For things like the ftrace events, this results in a non-standard array.
 When initializing the ftrace subsystem, we traverse the _ftrace_events
 section and call the initialization callback for each event. When the
 structures are misaligned, we could be treating another part of the
 structure (or the zeroed out space between them) as a function pointer.

 This patch forces the alignment for all the ftrace_event_call structures
 to 4 bytes.

 Without this patch, the kernel fails to boot very early when built with
 gcc 4.5.

 It's trivial to check the alignment of the members of the array, so it
 might be worthwhile to add something to the build system to do that
 automatically. Unfortunately, that only covers this case. I've asked one
 of the gcc developers about adding a warning when this condition is seen.

8bd93a2c5d rcu: Accelerate grace period if last non-dynticked CPU
Currently, rcu_needs_cpu() simply checks whether the current CPU
has an outstanding RCU callback, which means that the last CPU
to go into dyntick-idle mode might wait a few ticks for the
relevant grace periods to complete.  However, if all the other
CPUs are in dyntick-idle mode, and if this CPU is in a quiescent
state (which it is for RCU-bh and RCU-sched any time that we are
considering going into dyntick-idle mode), then the grace period
is instantly complete.

This patch therefore repeatedly invokes the RCU grace-period
machinery in order to force any needed grace periods to complete
quickly.  It does so a limited number of times in order to
prevent starvation by an RCU callback function that might pass
itself to call_rcu().

However, if any CPU other than the current one is not in
dyntick-idle mode, fall back to simply checking (with fix to bug
noted by Lai Jiangshan).  Also, take advantage of last
grace-period forcing, the opportunity to do so noted by Steve
Rostedt.  And apply simplified #ifdef condition suggested by
Frederic Weisbecker.

Update rcu_dereference() primitives to use new lockdep-based
checking. The rcu_dereference() in __in6_dev_get() may be
protected either by rcu_read_lock() or RTNL, per Eric Dumazet.
The rcu_dereference() in __sk_free() is protected by the fact
that it is never reached if an update could change it.  Check
for this by using rcu_dereference_check() to verify that the
struct sock's ->sk_wmem_alloc counter is zero.

3120438ad6 rcu: Disable lockdep checking in RCU list-traversal primitives
The theory is that use of bare rcu_dereference() is more prone
to error than use of the RCU list-traversal primitives.
Therefore, disable lockdep RCU read-side critical-section
checking in these primitives for the time being.  Once all of
the rcu_dereference() uses have been dealt with, it may be time
to re-enable lockdep checking for the RCU list-traversal
primitives.

c26d34a585 rcu: Add lockdep-enabled variants of rcu_dereference()
Make rcu_dereference() check for being in an RCU read-side
critical section, and create rcu_dereference_bh(),
rcu_dereference_sched(), and srcu_dereference() to check for the
other flavors of RCU.  Also create rcu_dereference_raw() to
avoid checking, and make rcu_dereference_check() use
rcu_dereference_raw().

632ee20013 rcu: Introduce lockdep-based checking to RCU read-side primitives
Inspection is proving insufficient to catch all RCU misuses,
which is understandable given that rcu_dereference() might be
protected by any of four different flavors of RCU (RCU, RCU-bh,
RCU-sched, and SRCU), and might also/instead be protected by any
of a number of locking primitives. It is therefore time to
enlist the aid of lockdep.

This set of patches is inspired by earlier work by Peter
Zijlstra and Thomas Gleixner, and takes the following approach:

o	Set up separate lockdep classes for RCU, RCU-bh, and RCU-sched.

o	Set up separate lockdep classes for each instance of SRCU.

o	Create primitives that check for being in an RCU read-side
	critical section.  These return exact answers if lockdep is
	fully enabled, but if unsure, report being in an RCU read-side
	critical section.  (We want to avoid false positives!)
	The primitives are:

	For RCU: rcu_read_lock_held(void)

	For RCU-bh: rcu_read_lock_bh_held(void)

	For RCU-sched: rcu_read_lock_sched_held(void)

	For SRCU: srcu_read_lock_held(struct srcu_struct *sp)

o	Add rcu_dereference_check(), which takes a second argument
	in which one places a boolean expression based on the above
	primitives and/or lockdep_is_held().

o	A new kernel configuration parameter, CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, enables
	rcu_dereference_check().  This depends on CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING,
	and should be quite helpful during the transition period while
	CONFIG_PROVE_RCU-unaware patches are in flight.

The existing rcu_dereference() primitive does no checking, but
upcoming patches will change that.

d62abe563f OMAP4: PMIC: Add support for twl6030 codec
In order to have TWL6030 CODEC driver as a platform driver, codec data
should be passed through twl_platform_data structure.

For twl6030 audio codec, the following data may be passed:
    - audpwron_gpio: gpio line used to power-up/down the codec. A low-to-high
      transition powers codec up. Setting audpwron_gpio to a negative value
      means that codec will use manual power sequence instead of automatic
      sequence
    - naudint_irq: irq line for audio interrupt. twl6030 drives NAUDINT line
      to low when an interrupt (codec ready, plug insertion/removal, etc) is
      detected

However, codec driver can operate if any or none of them are passed.

17634ba255 virtio: console: Add a new MULTIPORT feature, support for generic ports
This commit adds a new feature, MULTIPORT. If the host supports this
feature as well, the config space has the number of ports defined for
that device. New ports are spawned according to this information.

The config space also has the maximum number of ports that can be
spawned for a particular device. This is useful in initializing the
appropriate number of virtqueues in advance, as ports might be
hot-plugged in later.

Using this feature, generic ports can be created which are not tied to
hvc consoles.

We also open up a private channel between the host and the guest via
which some "control" messages are exchanged for the ports, like whether
the port being spawned is a console port, resizing the console window,
etc.

Next commits will add support for hotplugging and presenting char
devices in /dev/ for bi-directional guest-host communication.

c021eac414 virtio: Add ability to detach unused buffers from vrings
There's currently no way for a virtio driver to ask for unused

This is redundant, since virtio_ring stores that information.  So

9564e138b1 virtio: Add memory statistics reporting to the balloon driver (V4)
Changes since V3:
 - Do not do endian conversions as they will be done in the host
 - Report stats that reference a quantity of memory in bytes
 - Minor coding style updates

Changes since V2:
 - Increase stat field size to 64 bits
 - Report all sizes in kb (not pages)
 - Drop anon_pages stat and fix endianness conversion

Changes since V1:
 - Use a virtqueue instead of the device config space

When using ballooning to manage overcommitted memory on a host, a system for
guests to communicate their memory usage to the host can provide information
that will minimize the impact of ballooning on the guests.  The current method
employs a daemon running in each guest that communicates memory statistics to a
host daemon at a specified time interval.  The host daemon aggregates this
information and inflates and/or deflates balloons according to the level of
host memory pressure.  This approach is effective but overly complex since a
daemon must be installed inside each guest and coordinated to communicate with
the host.  A simpler approach is to collect memory statistics in the virtio
balloon driver and communicate them directly to the hypervisor.

This patch enables the guest-side support by adding stats collection and
reporting to the virtio balloon driver.

7bc5e3f2be x86/PCI: use host bridge _CRS info by default on 2008 and newer machines
The main benefit of using ACPI host bridge window information is that
we can do better resource allocation in systems with multiple host bridges,
e.g., http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14183

Sometimes we need _CRS information even if we only have one host bridge,
e.g., https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/341681

Most of these systems are relatively new, so this patch turns on
"pci=use_crs" only on machines with a BIOS date of 2008 or newer.
