The current test for empty strings fails because it is testing the
address of a field, not a pointer. So the test will always be true.
Test the first character in the string to not be null instead.

Three errors resulting in kernel memory disclosure:
1/ The structures used for the netlink based crypto algorithm report API
are located on the stack. As snprintf() does not fill the remainder of
the buffer with null bytes, those stack bytes will be disclosed to users
of the API. Switch to strncpy() to fix this.
2/ crypto_report_one() does not initialize all field of struct
crypto_user_alg. Fix this to fix the heap info leak.
3/ For the module name we should copy only as many bytes as
module_name() returns -- not as much as the destination buffer could
hold. But the current code does not and therefore copies random data
from behind the end of the module name, as the module name is always
shorter than CRYPTO_MAX_ALG_NAME.
Also switch to use strncpy() to copy the algorithm's name and
driver_name. They are strings, after all.

The ThingM blink(1) is an open source hardware USB RGB LED. It contains
an internal EEPROM, allowing to configure up to 12 light patterns. A
light pattern is a RGB color plus a fade time. This driver registers a
LED class instance with additional sysfs attributes to support basic
functions such as setting RGB colors, fade and playing. Other functions
are still accessible through the hidraw interface.
At this time, the only documentation for the device is the firmware
source code from ThingM, plus a few schematics. They are available at:
https://github.com/todbot/blink1
This patch is version 3. It updates the name of the source file, the
driver and the led sysfs entry, according to comments from Jiri Kosina
and Simon Wood.

We (Linux Kernel Performance project) found a regression
introduced by commit:
5a505085f043 mm/rmap: Convert the struct anon_vma::mutex to an rwsem
which converted all anon_vma::mutex locks rwsem write locks.
The semantics are the same, but the behavioral difference is
quite huge in some cases. After investigating it we found the
root cause: mutexes support lock stealing while rwsems don't.
Here is the link for the detailed regression report:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/29/84
Ingo suggested adding write lock stealing to rwsems:
"I think we should allow lock-steal between rwsem writers - that
will not hurt fairness as most rwsem fairness concerns relate to
reader vs. writer fairness"
And here is the rwsem-spinlock version.
With this patch, we got a double performance increase in one
test box with following aim7 workfile:
FILESIZE: 1M
POOLSIZE: 10M
10 fork_test
/usr/bin/time output w/o patch /usr/bin/time_output with patch
-- Percent of CPU this job got: 369% Percent of CPU this job got: 537%
Voluntary context switches: 640595016 Voluntary context switches: 157915561
We got a 45% increase in CPU usage and saved about 3/4 voluntary context switches.

To make the lockdep selftest working on RT we need to convert the
spinlock tests to a raw spinlock. Otherwise we cannot run the irq
context checks. For mainline this is just annotational as spinlocks
are mapped to raw_spinlocks anyway.

Commit 5a505085f043 ("mm/rmap: Convert the struct anon_vma::mutex
to an rwsem") changed struct anon_vma::mutex to an rwsem, which
caused aim7 fork_test performance to drop by 50%.
Yuanhan Liu did the following excellent analysis:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/29/84
and found that the regression is caused by strict, serialized,
FIFO sequential write-ownership of rwsems. Ingo suggested
implementing opportunistic lock-stealing for the front writer
task in the waitqueue.
Yuanhan Liu implemented lock-stealing for spinlock-rwsems,
which indeed recovered much of the regression - confirming
the analysis that the main factor in the regression was the
FIFO writer-fairness of rwsems.
In this patch we allow lock-stealing to happen when the first
waiter is also writer. With that change in place the
aim7 fork_test performance is fully recovered on my
Intel NHM EP, NHM EX, SNB EP 2S and 4S test-machines.

Since commit c9a4962881929df7f1ef6e63e1b9da304faca4dd ("nfsd:
make client_lock per net") compiling nfs4state.o without
CONFIG_LOCKDEP set, triggers this GCC warning:
fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c: In function ‘free_client’:
fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c:1051:19: warning: unused variable ‘nn’ [-Wunused-variable]
The cause of that warning is that lockdep_assert_held() compiles
away if CONFIG_LOCKDEP is not set. Silence this warning by using
the argument to lockdep_assert_held() as a nop if CONFIG_LOCKDEP
is not set.

This patch fixes the following inconsistencies in bond_release_all:
- IFF_BONDING flag is not stripped from slaves
- MTU is not restored
- no netdev notifiers are sent
Instead of trying to keep bond_release and bond_release_all in sync
I think we can re-use bond_release as the environment for calling it
is correct (RTNL is held). I have been running tests for the past
week and they came out successful. The only way for bond_release to fail
is for the slave to be attached in a different bond or to not be a slave
but that cannot happen as RTNL is held and no slave manipulations can be
achieved.
V2: As suggested bond_release is renamed to __bond_release_one with a
new parameter "all" introduced so to avoid calling unnecessary code while
destroying a bond, and a wrapper for it called bond_release is created
because of ndo_del_link. bond_release_all() is removed.

Bastian Bittorf reported that some of the silent freezes on a Linksys WRT54G
were due to overflow of the RX DMA ring buffer, which was created with 64
slots. That finding reminded me that I was seeing similar crashed on a netbook,
which also has a relatively slow processor. After increasing the number of
slots to 128, runs on the netbook that previously failed now worked; however,
I found that 109 slots had been used in one test. For that reason, the number
of slots is being increased to 256.
