201e4aca5a pstore/ram: Should update old dmesg buffer before reading
Without the update, we'll only see the new dmesg buffer after the
reboot, but previously we could see it right away. Making an oops
visible in pstore filesystem before reboot is a somewhat dubious
feature, but removing it wasn't an intentional change, so let's
restore it.

For this we have to make persistent_ram_save_old() safe for calling
multiple times, and also extern it.

c2fb8a3fa2 USB: add NO_D3_DURING_SLEEP flag and revert 151b612847
This patch (as1558) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers:
The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the
ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers.  Users have been forced
to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep.

After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't
like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3
power state.  Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing
we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3
during system sleep.

The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present,
and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set.
Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend.
However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote
wakeup requests while the system is asleep.  Hence USB wakeup is not
functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state
of affairs.

A similar patch has already been applied as commit
151b612847 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during
suspend on ASUS computers).  The patch supersedes that one and reverts
it.  There are two differences:

	The old patch added the flag at the USB level; this patch
	adds it at the PCI level.

	The old patch applied to all chipsets with the same vendor,
	subsystem vendor, and product IDs; this patch makes an
	exception for a known-good system (based on DMI information).

047fe36052 splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses
Dave Jones reported a kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3474! triggered
by splice_shrink_spd() called from vmsplice_to_pipe()

commit 35f3d14dbb (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes)
added capability to adjust pipe->buffers.

Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers
doesn't change for their duration.

Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and
use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate.

splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument.

b4bc9ef625 regulator: tps65217: Convert to regulator_[is_enabled|get_voltage_sel]_regmap
This patch converts .is_enabled and .get_voltage_sel to
regulator_is_enabled_regmap and regulator_get_voltage_sel_regmap.

For .enable, .disable, and .set_voltage_sel, the write protect level is either
1 or 2. So we cannot use regulator_[enable|disable|set_voltage_sel]_regmap.

Now we store the enable reg/mask and vsel reg/mask in regulator_desc,
so we can remove enable_mask, set_vout_reg, and set_vout_mask from
struct tps_info.

1761a110a9 [media] Fix regression in ioctl numbering
Yuck. The VIDIOC_(TRY_)DECODER_CMD ioctls already had ioctl numbers 96 and 97,
and after merging the timings API I forgot to continue numbering from 98. So
now we have two ioctls with number 96 and two with 97.

With the new table-driver ioctl handling in v4l2-ioctl.c it is essential that
each ioctl has its own unique number, so let's fix this quickly for 3.5.

f5d411c91e nohz: Rename ts->idle_tick to ts->last_tick
Now that idle and nohz logics are going to be independant each others,
ts->idle_tick becomes too much a biased name to describe the field that
saves the last scheduled tick on top of which we re-calculate the next
tick to schedule when the timer is restarted.

We want to reuse this even to stop the tick outside idle cases. So let's
rename it to some more generic name: ts->last_tick.

This changes a bit the timer list stat export so we need to increase its
version.

Merge RCU fixes from Paul E. McKenney:

 " This series has four patches, the major point of which is to eliminate
   some slowdowns (including boot-time slowdowns) resulting from some
   RCU_FAST_NO_HZ changes.  The issue with the changes is that posting timers
   from the idle loop has no effect if the CPU has entered dyntick-idle
   mode because the CPU has already computed its wakeup time, and posting
   a timer does not cause it to be recomputed.  The short-term fix is for
   RCU to precompute the timeout value so that the CPU's calculation is
   correct. "

8876d6b5f8 net: Make linux/tcp.h C++ friendly (trivial)
I originally sent this patch to <trivial@kernel.org>, but Jiri Kosina did
not feel that this is fully appropriate for the trivial tree.

Using linux/tcp.h from C++ results in:

cat t.cc
#include <linux/tcp.h>
int main() { }

g++ -c t.cc

In file included from t.cc:1:
/usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: '__u32 __fswab32(__u32)' cannot appear in a constant-expression
/usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: a function call cannot appear in a constant-expression
...

Attached trivial patch fixes this problem.

Tested:
- the t.cc above compiles with g++ and
- the following program generates the same output before/after
  the patch:

#include <linux/tcp.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main ()
{
#define P(a) printf("%s: %08x\n", #a, (int)a)

Introduced two helper functions to map & unmap the IOMMU

ae82fdb140 module_param: stop double-calling parameters.
Commit 026cee0086 "params:
<level>_initcall-like kernel parameters" set old-style module
parameters to level 0.  And we call those level 0 calls where we used
to, early in start_kernel().

We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled
module_params before the corresponding initcall.  Unfortunately level
0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice.

(Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does).

Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls.

300f786b26 c/r: prctl: add ability to get clear_tid_address
Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits.  This
functionality is used by pthread_join().

We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the
current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space.

Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore
pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored.

This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows
the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address.

This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.

A fix for commit b32dfe3771 ("c/r: prctl: add ability to set new

After removing mm->num_exe_file_vmas kernel keeps mm->exe_file until
final mmput(), it never becomes NULL while task is alive.

We can check for other mapped files in mm instead of checking
mm->num_exe_file_vmas, and mark mm with flag MMF_EXE_FILE_CHANGED in

aa9b16306e rcu: Precompute RCU_FAST_NO_HZ timer offsets
When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels.  Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked.  In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed.  This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.

This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough.  However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time.  If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.

This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time.  An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

c48b60538c perf/x86: Use rdpmc() rather than rdmsr() when possible in the kernel
The rdpmc instruction is faster than the equivelant rdmsr call,
so use it when possible in the kernel.

The perfctr kernel patches did this, after extensive testing showed
rdpmc to always be faster (One can look in etc/costs in the perfctr-2.6
package to see a historical list of the overhead).

I have done some tests on a 3.2 kernel, the kernel module I used
was included in the first posting of this patch:

                   rdmsr           rdpmc
 Core2 T9900:      203.9 cycles     30.9 cycles
 AMD fam0fh:        56.2 cycles      9.8 cycles
 Atom 6/28/2:      129.7 cycles     50.6 cycles

The speedup of using rdpmc is large.

[ It's probably possible (and desirable) to do this without
  requiring a new field in the hw_perf_event structure, but
  the fixed events make this tricky. ]

778b032d96 uprobes: Kill uprobes_srcu/uprobe_srcu_id
Kill the no longer needed uprobes_srcu/uprobe_srcu_id code.

It doesn't really work anyway. synchronize_srcu() can only
synchronize with the code "inside" the
srcu_read_lock/srcu_read_unlock section, while
uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() does srcu_read_lock() _after_ we
already hit the breakpoint.

I guess this probably works "in practice". synchronize_srcu() is
slow and it implies synchronize_sched(), and the probed task
enters the non- preemptible section at the start of exception
handler. Still this is not right at least in theory, and
task->uprobe_srcu_id blows task_struct.

2a0fe914a3 mmc: sdio: fix setting card data bus width as 4-bit
SDIO_CCCR_IF[1:0] in SDIO card is used for card data bus width
setting as below:

     00b: 1-bit bus
     01b: Reserved
     10b: 4-bit bus
     11b: 8-bit bus (only for embedded SDIO)

And sdio_enable_wide is for setting data bus width as 4-bit.
But currently, it first reads the register, second OR' 1b with
SDIO_CCCR_IF[1], and then writes it back.

As we can see, this is based on such assumption that the
SDIO_CCCR_IF[0] is always 0. Apparently, this is not right.

68e3e92620 Revert "mm: compaction: handle incorrect MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE type pageblocks"
This reverts commit 5ceb9ce6fe.

That commit seems to be the cause of the mm compation list corruption
issues that Dave Jones reported.  The locking (or rather, absense
there-of) is dubious, as is the use of the 'page' variable once it has
been found to be outside the pageblock range.

So revert it for now, we can re-visit this for 3.6.  If we even need to:
as Minchan Kim says, "The patch wasn't a bug fix and even test workload
was very theoretical".

2f9d3df8aa vfs: move inode stat information closer together
The comment above it says "Stat data, not accessed from path walking",
but in fact some of inode fields we use for the common stat data was way
down at the end of the inode, causing unnecessary cache misses for the
common stat operations.

The inode structure is pretty big, and this can change padding depending
on field width, but at least on the common 64-bit configurations this
doesn't change the size.  Some of our inode layout has historically been
to tro to avoid unnecessary padding fields, but cache locality is at
least as important for layout, if not more.

Noticed by looking at kernel profiles, and noticing that the "i_blkbits"
access stood out like a sore thumb.
