5a367dfb73 V4L/DVB (8246): tvaudio: Stop I2C driver ID abuse
The tvaudio driver is using "official" I2C device IDs for internal
purpose. There must be some historical reason behind this but anyway,
it shouldn't do that. As the stored values are never used, the easiest
way to fix the problem is simply to remove them altogether.

I2C_HW_SMBUS_OVFX2 is referenced in ovcamchip_core.c, but no bus uses
this driver ID, so we can remove the reference. As far as I can see,
the Cypress FX2 webcam is handled by a different driver (dvb-usb).

5f94c1741b KVM: Add coalesced MMIO support (common part)
This patch adds all needed structures to coalesce MMIOs.
Until an architecture uses it, it is not compiled.

Coalesced MMIO introduces two ioctl() to define where are the MMIO zones that
can be coalesced:

- KVM_REGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO registers a coalesced MMIO zone.
  It requests one parameter (struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone) which defines
  a memory area where MMIOs can be coalesced until the next switch to
  user space. The maximum number of MMIO zones is KVM_COALESCED_MMIO_ZONE_MAX.

- KVM_UNREGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO cancels all registered zones inside
  the given bounds (bounds are also given by struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone).

The userspace client can check kernel coalesced MMIO availability by asking
ioctl(KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION) for the KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO capability.
The ioctl() call to KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO will return 0 if not supported,
or the page offset where will be stored the ring buffer.
The page offset depends on the architecture.

After an ioctl(KVM_RUN), the first page of the KVM memory mapped points to
a kvm_run structure. The offset given by KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO is
an offset to the coalesced MMIO ring expressed in PAGE_SIZE relatively
to the address of the start of th kvm_run structure. The MMIO ring buffer
is defined by the structure kvm_coalesced_mmio_ring.

3072367300 pkt_sched: Manage qdisc list inside of root qdisc.
Idea is from Patrick McHardy.

Instead of managing the list of qdiscs on the device level, manage it
in the root qdisc of a netdev_queue.  This solves all kinds of
visibility issues during qdisc destruction.

The way to iterate over all qdiscs of a netdev_queue is to visit
the netdev_queue->qdisc, and then traverse it's list.

The only special case is to ignore builting qdiscs at the root when
dumping or doing a qdisc_lookup().  That was not needed previously
because builtin qdiscs were not added to the device's qdisc_list.

65c0118453 cpumask: Replace cpumask_of_cpu with cpumask_of_cpu_ptr
* This patch replaces the dangerous lvalue version of cpumask_of_cpu
    with new cpumask_of_cpu_ptr macros.  These are patterned after the
    node_to_cpumask_ptr macros.

    In general terms, if there is a cpumask_of_cpu_map[] then a pointer to
    the cpumask_of_cpu_map[cpu] entry is used.  The cpumask_of_cpu_map
    is provided when there is a large NR_CPUS count, reducing
    greatly the amount of code generated and stack space used for
    cpumask_of_cpu().  The pointer to the cpumask_t value is needed for
    calling set_cpus_allowed_ptr() to reduce the amount of stack space
    needed to pass the cpumask_t value.

    If there isn't a cpumask_of_cpu_map[], then a temporary variable is
    declared and filled in with value from cpumask_of_cpu(cpu) as well as
    a pointer variable pointing to this temporary variable.  Afterwards,
    the pointer is used to reference the cpumask value.  The compiler
    will optimize out the extra dereference through the pointer as well
    as the stack space used for the pointer, resulting in identical code.

    A good example of the orthogonal usages is in net/sunrpc/svc.c:

	case SVC_POOL_PERCPU:
	{
		unsigned int cpu = m->pool_to[pidx];
		cpumask_of_cpu_ptr(cpumask, cpu);

		*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
		set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, cpumask);
		return 1;
	}
	case SVC_POOL_PERNODE:
	{
		unsigned int node = m->pool_to[pidx];
		node_to_cpumask_ptr(nodecpumask, node);

		*oldmask = current->cpus_allowed;
		set_cpus_allowed_ptr(current, nodecpumask);
		return 1;
	}

b8f8c3cf0a nohz: prevent tick stop outside of the idle loop
Jack Ren and Eric Miao tracked down the following long standing
problem in the NOHZ code:

	scheduler switch to idle task
	enable interrupts

Window starts here

	----> interrupt happens (does not set NEED_RESCHED)
	      	irq_exit() stops the tick

	----> interrupt happens (does set NEED_RESCHED)

	return from schedule()
	
	cpu_idle(): preempt_disable();

Window ends here

The interrupts can happen at any point inside the race window. The
first interrupt stops the tick, the second one causes the scheduler to
rerun and switch away from idle again and we end up with the tick
disabled.

The fact that it needs two interrupts where the first one does not set
NEED_RESCHED and the second one does made the bug obscure and extremly
hard to reproduce and analyse. Kudos to Jack and Eric.

Solution: Limit the NOHZ functionality to the idle loop to make sure
that we can not run into such a situation ever again.

cpu_idle()
{
	preempt_disable();

	while(1) {
		 tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1); <- tell NOHZ code that we
		 			          are in the idle loop

		 while (!need_resched())
		       halt();

		 tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(); <- disables NOHZ mode
		 preempt_enable_no_resched();
		 schedule();
		 preempt_disable();
	}
}

In hindsight we should have done this forever, but ... 

/me grabs a large brown paperbag.

e761b77252 cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo sched domain managment (take 2)
This is based on Linus' idea of creating cpu_active_map that prevents
scheduler load balancer from migrating tasks to the cpu that is going
down.

It allows us to simplify domain management code and avoid unecessary
domain rebuilds during cpu hotplug event handling.

Please ignore the cpusets part for now. It needs some more work in order
to avoid crazy lock nesting. Although I did simplfy and unify domain
reinitialization logic. We now simply call partition_sched_domains() in
all the cases. This means that we're using exact same code paths as in
cpusets case and hence the test below cover cpusets too.
Cpuset changes to make rebuild_sched_domains() callable from various
contexts are in the separate patch (right next after this one).

This not only boots but also easily handles
	while true; do make clean; make -j 8; done
and
	while true; do on-off-cpu 1; done
at the same time.
(on-off-cpu 1 simple does echo 0/1 > /sys/.../cpu1/online thing).

Suprisingly the box (dual-core Core2) is quite usable. In fact I'm typing
this on right now in gnome-terminal and things are moving just fine.

Also this is running with most of the debug features enabled (lockdep,
mutex, etc) no BUG_ONs or lockdep complaints so far.

I believe I addressed all of the Dmitry's comments for original Linus'
version. I changed both fair and rt balancer to mask out non-active cpus.
And replaced cpu_is_offline() with !cpu_active() in the main scheduler
code where it made sense (to me).

fd2ea0a79f net: Use queue aware tests throughout.
This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking
and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures.

Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes.  The interfaces they use such
as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero.
So everything "just works" for them.

Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a
routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(),
netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc.

pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others.

In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely
improved.  The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the
wrong queue, which is mostly harmless.  The thing to do is probably to
invoke fill_packet() earlier.

The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on
the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping.

Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of
net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx().  If we end up needing any kind of
special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here.

Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver
indicates how many TX queues are actually active.

With IGB changes from Jeff Kirsher.

It might be possible, in the new design (where there will be one qdisc
per device TX queue) to allow similar functionality via a TX hash
algorithm for RR but I really see no reason to export this aspect of
how these multiqueue cards actually implement the scheduling of the
the individual DMA TX rings and the single physical MAC/PHY port.

e8a0464cc9 netdev: Allocate multiple queues for TX.
alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue
structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument.

Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored
through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue()
interfaces.  This makes it easy to grep the tree for all
things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device.

Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and
only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping
for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.

3dce017137 async_tx: remove depend_tx from async_tx_sync_epilog
All callers of async_tx_sync_epilog have called async_tx_quiesce on the
depend_tx, so async_tx_sync_epilog need only call the callback to
complete the operation.

a6795e9ebb configfs: Allow ->make_item() and ->make_group() to return detailed errors.
The configfs operations ->make_item() and ->make_group() currently
return a new item/group.  A return of NULL signifies an error.  Because
of this, -ENOMEM is the only return code bubbled up the stack.

Multiple folks have requested the ability to return specific error codes
when these operations fail.  This patch adds that ability by changing the
->make_item/group() ops to return ERR_PTR() values.  These errors are
bubbled up appropriately.  NULL returns are changed to -ENOMEM for
compatibility.

Also updated are the in-kernel users of configfs.

This is a rework of reverted commit 11c3b79218.
