925ddb240d i2c: designware: Rework probe() to get clock a bit later
In order to be able to create missing clock for AMD (and in future possibly
others) we move getting clock for the device a bit later. Also make ACPI/DT
configuration in the same place depending on from where the device was
enumerated from.

0b26c845df i2c: designware: Default to fast mode in case of ACPI
There is no way in ACPI to tell in which speed the host controller is
supposed to run, so we default to fast mode (400KHz). Since this has been
the default all the time there should be no functional changes with this
change.

This is the first step required to refactor the driver probe so that we can
supply source clock from ACPI part of the driver to the core.

8dd609805b KEYS: use swapped SKID for performing partial matching
Earlier KEYS code used pure subject key identifiers (fingerprint)
for searching keys. Latest merged code removed that and broke
compatibility with integrity subsytem signatures and original
format of module signatures.

This patch returns back partial matching on SKID.

18dcf433f3 AHCI: Optimize single IRQ interrupt processing
Split interrupt service routine into hardware context handler
and threaded context handler. That allows to protect ports with
individual locks rather than with a single host-wide lock and
move port interrupts handling out of the hardware interrupt
context.

Testing was done by transferring 8GB on two hard drives in
parallel using command 'dd if=/dev/sd{a,b} of=/dev/null'. With
lock_stat statistics I measured access times to ata_host::lock
spinlock (since interrupt handler code is fully embraced with
this lock). The average lock's holdtime decreased eight times
while average waittime decreased two times.

Both before and after the change the transfer time is the same,
while 'perf record -e cycles:k ...' shows 1%-4% CPU time spent
in ahci_single_irq_intr() routine before the update and not even
sampled/shown ahci_single_irq_intr() after the update.

227dfb4dbf AHCI: Do not read HOST_IRQ_STAT reg in multi-MSI mode
As described in AHCI v1.0 specification chapter 10.6.2.2
"Multiple MSI Based Messages" generation of interrupts
is not controlled through the HOST_IRQ_STAT register.

Considering MMIO access is expensive remove unnecessary
reading and writing of HOST_IRQ_STAT register.

Further, serializing access to the host data is no longer
needed and the interrupt service routine can avoid competing
on the host lock.

f667aef6af btrfs: Make btrfs handle security mount options internally to avoid losing security label.
[BUG]
Originally when mount btrfs with "-o subvol=" mount option, btrfs will
lose all security lable.
And if the btrfs fs is mounted somewhere else, due to the lost of
security lable, SELinux will refuse to mount since the same super block
is being mounted using different security lable.

[REPRODUCER]
With SELinux enabled:
 #mkfs -t btrfs /dev/sda5
 #mount -o context=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 /dev/sda5 /mnt/btrfs
 #btrfs subvolume create /mnt/btrfs/subvol
 #mount -o subvol=subvol,context=system_u:object_r:nfs_t:s0 /dev/sda5
  /mnt/test

kernel message:
SELinux: mount invalid.  Same superblock, different security settings
for (dev sda5, type btrfs)

[REASON]
This happens because btrfs will call vfs_kern_mount() and then
mount_subtree() to handle subvolume name lookup.
First mount will cut off all the security lables and when it comes to
the second vfs_kern_mount(), it has no security label now.

[FIX]
This patch will makes btrfs behavior much more like nfs,
which has the type flag FS_BINARY_MOUNTDATA,
making btrfs handles the security label internally.
So security label will be set in the real mount time and won't lose
label when use with "subvol=" mount option.

Similar to the stop_machine deadlock scenario on !PREEMPT kernels
addressed in b22ce2785d "workqueue: cond_resched() after processing

delay can stall RCU. The cond_resched call introduced in that fix will
yield only iff there are other higher priority tasks to run, so force a
quiescent RCU state between work items.

a2ef5dc2c7 x86/xen: Set EFER.NX and EFER.SCE in PVH guests
This fixes two bugs in PVH guests:

  - Not setting EFER.NX means the NX bit in page table entries is
    ignored on Intel processors and causes reserved bit page faults on
    AMD processors.

  - After the Xen commit 7645640d6ff1 ("x86/PVH: don't set EFER_SCE for
    pvh guest") PVH guests are required to set EFER.SCE to enable the
    SYSCALL instruction.

Secondary VCPUs are started with pagetables with the NX bit set so
EFER.NX must be set before using any stack or data segment.
xen_pvh_cpu_early_init() is the new secondary VCPU entry point that
sets EFER before jumping to cpu_bringup_and_idle().

This patchset contains optimizations to TX flow in mlx4_en driver. It also introduce
setting/getting tx copybreak, to enable controlling inline threshold dynamically.

TX flow optimizations was authored and posted to the mailing list by Eric
Dumazet [1] as a single patch. I splitted this patch to smaller patches,
Reviewed it and tested.
Changed from original patch:
- s/iowrite32be/iowrite32/, since ring->doorbell_qpn is stored as be32

The tx copybreak patch was also suggested by Eric Dumazet, and was edited and
reviewed by me. User space patch will be sent after kernel code is ready.

I am sending this patchset now since the merge window is near and don't want to
miss it.

More work need to do:
- Disable BF when xmit_more is in use
- Make TSO use xmit_more too. Maybe by splitting small TSO packets in the
  driver itself, to avoid extra cpu/memory costs of GSO before the driver
- Fix mlx4_en_xmit buggy handling of queue full in the middle of a burst
  partially posted to send queue using xmit_more

Eric, I edited the patches to have you as the Author and the first
signed-off-by. I hope it is ok with you (I wasn't sure if it is ok to sign by
you), anyway all the credit to those changes should go to you.

Patchset was tested and applied over commit 1e203c1 "(net: sched:
suspicious RCU usage in qdisc_watchdog")

1556b8746e net/mlx4_en: Use the new tx_copybreak to set inline threshold
Instead of setting inline threshold using module parameter only on
driver load, use set_tunable() to set it dynamically.
No need to store the threshold per ring, using instead the netdev global
priv->prof->inline_thold
Initial value still is set using the module parameter, therefore
backward compatability is kept.
