89061d3d58 futex: Move drop_futex_key_refs out of spinlock'ed region
When requeuing tasks from one futex to another, the reference held
by the requeued task to the original futex location needs to be
dropped eventually.

Dropping the reference may ultimately lead to a call to
"iput_final" and subsequently call into filesystem- specific code -
which may be non-atomic.

It is therefore safer to defer this drop operation until after the
futex_hash_bucket spinlock has been dropped.

93ae5012a7 x86: Don't print number of MCE banks for every CPU
The MCE initialization code explicitly says it doesn't handle
asymmetric configurations where different CPUs support different
numbers of MCE banks, and it prints a big warning in that case.

Therefore, printing the "mce: CPU supports <x> MCE banks"
message into the kernel log for every CPU is pure redundancy
that clutters the log significantly for systems with lots of
CPUs.

036ed8ba61 x86, UV: Fix information in __uv_hub_info structure
A few parts of the uv_hub_info structure are initialized
incorrectly.

 - n_val is being loaded with m_val.
 - gpa_mask is initialized with a bytes instead of an unsigned long.
 - Handle the case where none of the alias registers are used.

Lastly I converted the bau over to using the uv_hub_info->m_val
which is the correct value.

Without this patch, booting a large configuration hits a
problem where the upper bits of the gnode affect the pnode
and the bau will not operate.

52a94909f0 sh: Remove BKL from landisk gio.
The open function got the BKL via the big push down. Replace it by
preempt_enable/disable as this is sufficient for an UP machine.

The ioctl can be unlocked because there is no functionality which
requires serialization. The usage by multiple callers is broken with
and without the BKL due to the local static variable addr.

b2141e6951 raid6/async_tx: handle holes in block list in async_syndrome_val
async_syndrome_val check the P and Q blocks used for RAID6
calculations.
With DDF raid6, some of the data blocks might be NULL, so
this needs to be handled in the same way that async_gen_syndrome
handles it.

As async_syndrome_val calls async_xor, also enhance async_xor
to detect and skip NULL blocks in the list.

5dd33c9a4c md/async: don't pass a memory pointer as a page pointer.
md/raid6 passes a list of 'struct page *' to the async_tx routines,
which then either DMA map them for offload, or take the page_address
for CPU based calculations.

For RAID6 we sometime leave 'blanks' in the list of pages.
For CPU based calcs, we want to treat theses as a page of zeros.
For offloaded calculations, we simply don't pass a page to the
hardware.

Currently the 'blanks' are encoded as a pointer to
raid6_empty_zero_page.  This is a 4096 byte memory region, not a
'struct page'.  This is mostly handled correctly but is rather ugly.

So change the code to pass and expect a NULL pointer for the blanks.
When taking page_address of a page, we need to check for a NULL and
in that case use raid6_empty_zero_page.

5e5e3e78ed md: Fix handling of raid5 array which is being reshaped to fewer devices.
When a raid5 (or raid6) array is being reshaped to have fewer devices,
conf->raid_disks is the latter and hence smaller number of devices.
However sometimes we want to use a number which is the total number of
currently required devices - the larger of the 'old' and 'new' sizes.
Before we implemented reducing the number of devices, this was always
'new' i.e. ->raid_disks.
Now we need max(raid_disks, previous_raid_disks) in those places.

This particularly affects assembling an array that was shutdown while
in the middle of a reshape to fewer devices.

md.c needs a similar fix when interpreting the md metadata.

417b8d4ac8 md/raid456: downlevel multicore operations to raid_run_ops
The percpu conversion allowed a straightforward handoff of stripe
processing to the async subsytem that initially showed some modest gains
(+4%).  However, this model is too simplistic and leads to stripes
bouncing between raid5d and the async thread pool for every invocation
of handle_stripe().  As reported by Holger this can fall into a
pathological situation severely impacting throughput (6x performance
loss).

By downleveling the parallelism to raid_run_ops the pathological
stripe_head bouncing is eliminated.  This version still exhibits an
average 11% throughput loss for:

	mdadm --create /dev/md0 /dev/sd[b-q] -n 16 -l 6
	echo 1024 > /sys/block/md0/md/stripe_cache_size
	dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1024k count=2048

...but the results are at least stable and can be used as a base for
further multicore experimentation.

a7a7c0e1d1 sh: Fix up single page flushing to use PAGE_SIZE.
Presently The SH-4 cache flushing code uses flush_cache_4096() for most
of the real flushing work, which breaks down to a fixed 4096 unroll and
increment. Not only is this sub-optimal for larger page sizes, it's also
uncovered a bug in sh4_flush_dcache_page() when large page sizes are used
and we have no cache aliases -- resulting in only a part of the page's
D-cache lines being written back.

ed9bfdf1a4 md: raid1/raid10: handle allocation errors during array setup.
Both raid1 and raid10 create a mempool during startup.
If the 'alloc' function for this mempool fails, unplug_slaves
is called.
If that happens when the pool is being initialised, unplug_slaves
will try to use the 'conf' structure that isn't filled in yet, and
badness will happen.

So ensure that unplug_slaves doesn't get called unless we know
that the conf structure if fully initialised.

21279cfa10 KEYS: get_instantiation_keyring() should inc the keyring refcount in all cases
The destination keyring specified to request_key() and co. is made available to
the process that instantiates the key (the slave process started by
/sbin/request-key typically).  This is passed in the request_key_auth struct as
the dest_keyring member.

keyctl_instantiate_key and keyctl_negate_key() call get_instantiation_keyring()
to get the keyring to attach the newly constructed key to at the end of
instantiation.  This may be given a specific keyring into which a link will be
made later, or it may be asked to find the keyring passed to request_key().  In
the former case, it returns a keyring with the refcount incremented by
lookup_user_key(); in the latter case, it returns the keyring from the
request_key_auth struct - and does _not_ increment the refcount.

The latter case will eventually result in an oops when the keyring prematurely
runs out of references and gets destroyed.  The effect may take some time to
show up as the key is destroyed lazily.

To fix this, the keyring returned by get_instantiation_keyring() must always
have its refcount incremented, no matter where it comes from.

This can be tested by setting /etc/request-key.conf to:

#OP	TYPE	DESCRIPTION	CALLOUT INFO	PROGRAM ARG1 ARG2 ARG3 ...
#======	=======	===============	===============	===============================
create  *	test:*		*		|/bin/false %u %g %d %{user:_display}
negate	*	*		*		/bin/keyctl negate %k 10 @u

and then doing:

	keyctl add user _display aaaaaaaa @u
        while keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u &&
        keyctl list @u;
        do
                keyctl request2 user test:x test:x @u;
                sleep 31;
                keyctl list @u;
        done

which will oops eventually.  Changing the negate line to have @u rather than
%S at the end is important as that forces the latter case by passing a special
keyring ID rather than an actual keyring ID.

237c80c5c8 rcu: Fix TREE_PREEMPT_RCU CPU_HOTPLUG bad-luck hang
If the following sequence of events occurs, then
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU will hang waiting for a grace period to
complete, eventually OOMing the system:

o	A TREE_PREEMPT_RCU build of the kernel is booted on a system
	with more than 64 physical CPUs present (32 on a 32-bit system).
	Alternatively, a TREE_PREEMPT_RCU build of the kernel is booted
	with RCU_FANOUT set to a sufficiently small value that the
	physical CPUs populate two or more leaf rcu_node structures.

o	A task is preempted in an RCU read-side critical section
	while running on a CPU corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node
	structure.

o	All CPUs corresponding to this same leaf rcu_node structure
	record quiescent states for the current grace period.

o	All of these same CPUs go offline (hence the need for enough
	physical CPUs to populate more than one leaf rcu_node structure).
	This causes the preempted task to be moved to the root rcu_node
	structure.

At this point, there is nothing left to cause the quiescent
state to be propagated up the rcu_node tree, so the current
grace period never completes.

The simplest fix, especially after considering the deadlock
possibilities, is to detect this situation when the last CPU is
offlined, and to set that CPU's ->qsmask bit in its leaf
rcu_node structure.  This will cause the next invocation of
force_quiescent_state() to end the grace period.

Without this fix, this hang can be triggered in an hour or so on
some machines with rcutorture and random CPU onlining/offlining.
With this fix, these same machines pass a full 10 hours of this
sort of abuse.

b7a8212cae drivers/serial/mpc52xx_uart.c: Use UPIO_MEM rather than SERIAL_IO_MEM
As in the commit 9b4a161777, use UPIO_MEM
rather than SERIAL_IO_MEM.  Both have the same value.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

019129d595 rcu: Stopgap fix for synchronize_rcu_expedited() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
For the short term, map synchronize_rcu_expedited() to
synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and to
synchronize_sched_expedited() for TREE_RCU.

Longer term, there needs to be a real expedited grace period for
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, but candidate patches to date are considerably
more complex and intrusive.
