Add the sysfs entries pp_gfx_power_profile and
pp_compute_power_profile which give user a way to set
power profile through parameters minimum sclk, minimum mclk,
activity threshold, up hysteresis and down hysteresis only
when the entry power_dpm_force_performance_level is in
default value "auto". It is read and write. Example:
echo 500 800 20 0 5 > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_*_power_profile
cat /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_*_power_profile
500 800 20 0 5
Note: first parameter is sclk in MHz, second is mclk in MHz,
third is activity threshold in percentage, fourth is up hysteresis
in ms and fifth is down hysteresis in ms.
echo set > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_*_power_profile
To set power profile state if it exists.
echo reset > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/pp_*_power_profile
To restore default state and clear previous setting.

====================
Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains a rather large update with Netfilter
fixes, specifically targeted to incorrect RCU usage in several spots and
the userspace conntrack helper infrastructure (nfnetlink_cthelper),
more specifically they are:
1) expect_class_max is incorrect set via cthelper, as in kernel semantics
mandate that this represents the array of expectation classes minus 1.
Patch from Liping Zhang.
2) Expectation policy updates via cthelper are currently broken for several
reasons: This code allows illegal changes in the policy such as changing
the number of expeciation classes, it is leaking the updated policy and
such update occurs with no RCU protection at all. Fix this by adding a
new nfnl_cthelper_update_policy() that describes what is really legal on
the update path.
3) Fix several memory leaks in cthelper, from Jeffy Chen.
4) synchronize_rcu() is missing in the removal path of several modules,
this may lead to races since CPU may still be running on code that has
just gone. Also from Liping Zhang.
5) Don't use the helper hashtable from cthelper, it is not safe to walk
over those bits without the helper mutex. Fix this by introducing a
new independent list for userspace helpers. From Liping Zhang.
6) nf_ct_extend_unregister() needs synchronize_rcu() to make sure no
packets are walking on any conntrack extension that is gone after
module removal, again from Liping.
7) nf_nat_snmp may crash if we fail to unregister the helper due to
accidental leftover code, from Gao Feng.
8) Fix leak in nfnetlink_queue with secctx support, from Liping Zhang.

After a new NAPI_STATE_MISSED state was added to NAPI we can get into
this state and in such case we have to reschedule NAPI as some work is
still pending and we have to process it. napi_complete_done() function
returns false if we have to reschedule something (e.g. in case we were
in MISSED state) as current polling have not been completed yet.
nps_enet driver hasn't been verifying the return value of
napi_complete_done() and has been forcibly enabling interrupts. That is
not correct as we should not enable interrupts before we have processed
all scheduled work. As a result we were getting trapped in interrupt
hanlder chain as we had never been able to disabale ethernet
interrupts again.
So this patch makes nps_enet_poll() func verify return value of
napi_complete_done() and enable interrupts only in case all scheduled
work has been completed.

Net device reset can fail when the h/w or f/w is in a bad state.
Subsequent netdevice open fails in bnxt_hwrm_stat_ctx_alloc().
The cleanup invokes bnxt_hwrm_resource_free() which inturn
calls bnxt_disable_int(). In this routine, the code segment
if (ring->fw_ring_id != INVALID_HW_RING_ID)
BNXT_CP_DB(cpr->cp_doorbell, cpr->cp_raw_cons);
results in NULL pointer dereference as cpr->cp_doorbell is not yet
initialized, and fw_ring_id is zero.
The fix is to initialize cpr fw_ring_id to INVALID_HW_RING_ID before
bnxt_init_chip() is invoked.

drv->cpumask defaults to cpu_possible_mask in __cpuidle_driver_init().
On PowerNV platform cpu_present could be less than cpu_possible in cases
where firmware detects the cpu, but it is not available to the OS. When
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, such cpus are not hotplugable at runtime and hence
we skip creating cpu_device.
This breaks cpuidle on powernv where register_cpu() is not called for
cpus in cpu_possible_mask that cannot be hot-added at runtime.
Trying cpuidle_register_device() on cpu without cpu_device will cause
crash like this:

Al Viro noticed that userspace accesses via get_user()/put_user() can be
simplified a lot with regard to usage of the exception handling.
This patch implements a fixup routine for get_user() and put_user() in such
that the exception handler will automatically load -EFAULT into the register
%r8 (the error value) in case on a fault on userspace. Additionally the fixup
routine will zero the target register on fault in case of a get_user() call.
The target register is extracted out of the faulting assembly instruction.
This patch brings a few benefits over the old implementation:
1. Exception handling gets much cleaner, easier and smaller in size.
2. Helper functions like fixup_get_user_skip_1 (all of fixup.S) can be dropped.
3. No need to hardcode %r9 as target register for get_user() any longer. This
helps the compiler register allocator and thus creates less assembler
statements.
4. No dependency on the exception_data contents any longer.
5. Nested faults will be handled cleanly.

pa_memcpy() is the major memcpy implementation in the parisc kernel which is
used to do any kind of userspace/kernel memory copies.
Al Viro noticed various bugs in the implementation of pa_mempcy(), most notably
that in case of faults it may report back to have copied more bytes than it
actually did.
Fixing those bugs is quite hard in the C-implementation, because the compiler
is messing around with the registers and we are not guaranteed that specific
variables are always in the same processor registers. This makes proper fault
handling complicated.
This patch implements pa_memcpy() in assembler. That way we have correct fault
handling and adding a 64-bit copy routine was quite easy.
Runtime tested with 32- and 64bit kernels.

dma_get_sgtable() tries to create a scatterlist table containing valid
struct page pointers for the coherent memory allocation passed in to it.
However, memory can be declared via dma_declare_coherent_memory(), or
via other reservation schemes which means that coherent memory is not
guaranteed to be backed by struct pages. In such cases, the resulting
scatterlist table contains pointers to invalid pages, which causes
kernel oops later.
This patch adds detection of such memory, and refuses to create a
scatterlist table for such memory.

Merge PTRACE_SETREGSET leakage fixes from Dave Martin:
"This series is the collection of fixes I proposed on this topic, that
have not yet appeared upstream or in the stable branches,
The issue can leak kernel stack, but doesn't appear to allow userspace
to attack the kernel directly. The affected architectures are c6x,
h8300, metag, mips and sparc.
[ Mark Salter points out that c6x has no MMU or other mechanism to
prevent userspace access to kernel code or data on c6x, but it
doesn't hurt to clean that case up too. ]
The bugs arise from use of user_regset_copyin(). Users of
user_regset_copyin() can work in one of two ways:
1) Copy directly to thread_struct or equivalent. (This seems to be
the design assumption of the regset API, and is the most common
approach.)
2) Copy to a local variable and then transfer to thread_struct. (A
significant minority of cases.)
