6021b28958 wl12xx: Fix CMD_TEST regression via netlink.
CMD_TEST via netlink API has been broken since
e29c3f59cfbc38c3b481a2694b08962da19c4664: cmd and acx interface rework.

The user of the interface sends the request in a buffer without the
wl12xx_command header but expects the response to have the wl12xx_command
header (with id and status).

This patch reverts the e29c3f5 commit for cmd.c:wl12xx_cmd_test
and implements the needed wrapper functionality in netlink.c. Now the
API of wl12xx_cmd_test and rest of wl12xx_cmd_* commands in cmd.c are
similar.

ff25839bf0 wl12xx: cmd and acx interface rework
Rework cmd and acx interfaces, it was just too confusing earlier. Now
all commands need to contain all the needed headers, either just cmd
headers or both cmd and acx headers. This accomplish to remove the
extra copy done for each command. The interfaces are now properly
documented as well.

Also try to make all commands safe for DMA transfers. I might have missed
some, but most of them should be fixed now.

And this is not all! As a free bonus you will also get some cosmetic
cleanups and code reorganisation. Order today!

32f2e807a3 cfq-iosched: reset oom_cfqq in cfq_set_request()
In case memory is scarce, we now default to oom_cfqq. Once memory is
available again, we should allocate a new cfqq and stop using oom_cfqq for
a particular io context.

Once a new request comes in, check if we are using oom_cfqq, and if yes,
try to allocate a new cfqq.

Tested the patch by forcing the use of oom_cfqq and upon next request thread
realized that it was using oom_cfqq and it allocated a new cfqq.

ecb554a846 block: fix sg SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV regression
I overlooked SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV support when I converted sg to use
the block layer mapping API (2.6.28).

Douglas Gilbert explained SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg37135.html

=
The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were:
   - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer
   - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN
     (data from device) variety. This would overwrite
     some or all of the kernel buffer
   - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space.

The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original
user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would
seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way
of detecting short reads but that was only added this century
and requires co-operation from the LLD.
=

This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this
semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and
enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ
requests.

It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new
from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it
difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst
drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block
layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer
mapping API.

f9f868dbcc timer stats: fix quick check optimization
git commit 507e1231 "timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to
avoid function calls" added one wrong check so that one unnecessary
function call isn't elimated.

time_stats_account_hrtimer() checks if timer->start_pid isn't
initialized in order to find out if timer_stats_update_stats() should
be called.  However start_pid is initialized with -1 instead of 0, so
that the function call always happens.

Check timer->start_site like in timer_stats_account_timer() to fix
this.

6ff7041dbf hrtimer: Fix migration expiry check
The timer migration expiry check should prevent the migration of a
timer to another CPU when the timer expires before the next event is
scheduled on the other CPU. Migrating the timer might delay it because
we can not reprogram the clock event device on the other CPU. But the
code implementing that check has two flaws:

- for !HIGHRES the check compares the expiry value with the clock
  events device expiry value which is wrong for CLOCK_REALTIME based
  timers.

- the check is racy. It holds the hrtimer base lock of the target CPU,
  but the clock event device expiry value can be modified
  nevertheless, e.g. by an timer interrupt firing.

The !HIGHRES case is easy to fix as we can enqueue the timer on the
cpu which was selected by the load balancer. It runs the idle
balancing code once per jiffy anyway. So the maximum delay for the
timer is the same as when we keep the tick on the current cpu going.

In the HIGHRES case we can get the next expiry value from the hrtimer
cpu_base of the target CPU and serialize the update with the cpu_base
lock. This moves the lock section in hrtimer_interrupt() so we can set
next_event to KTIME_MAX while we are handling the expired timers and
set it to the next expiry value after we handled the timers under the
base lock. While the expired timers are processed timer migration is
blocked because the expiry time of the timer is always <= KTIME_MAX.

Also remove the now useless clockevents_get_next_event() function.

7e0c5086c1 hrtimer: migration: do not check expiry time on current CPU
The timer migration code needs to check whether the expiry time of the
timer is before the programmed clock event expiry time when the timer
is enqueued on another CPU because we can not reprogram the timer
device on the other CPU. The current logic checks the expiry time even
if we enqueue on the current CPU when nohz_get_load_balancer() returns
current CPU. This might lead to an endless loop in the expiry check
code when the expiry time of the timer is before the current
programmed next event.

Check whether nohz_get_load_balancer() returns current CPU and skip
the expiry check if this is the case.

The bug was triggered from the networking code. The patch fixes the
regression http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13738

1aaad49e85 printk: Restore previous console_loglevel when re-enabling logging
When logging to console is disabled from userspace using klogctl()
and later re-enabled, console_loglevel gets set to the default
log level instead to the previous value.

This means that if the kernel was booted with 'quiet', the boot is
suddenly no longer quiet after logging to console gets re-enabled.

Save the current console_loglevel when logging is disabled and
restore to that value. If the log level is set to a specific value
while disabled, this is interpreted as an implicit re-enabling of
the logging.

The problem that prompted this patch is described in:

    http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/28/234

There are two variations possible on the patch below:

 1) If klogctl(7) is called while logging is not disabled, then set level
    to default (partially preserving current functionality):
  	case 7:		/* Enable logging to console */
 -		console_loglevel = default_console_loglevel;
 +		if (saved_console_loglevel == -1)
 +			console_loglevel = default_console_loglevel;
 +		else {
 +			console_loglevel = saved_console_loglevel;
 +			saved_console_loglevel = -1;
 +		}

 2) If klogctl(8) is called while logging is disabled, then don't enable
    logging, but remember the requested value for when logging does get
    enabled again:
  	case 8:		/* Set level of messages printed to console */
 [...]
 - 		console_loglevel = len;
 +		if (saved_console_loglevel == -1)
 +			console_loglevel = len;
 +		else
 +			saved_console_loglevel = len;

Yet another option would be to ignore the request.
