Pull nfsd fixes from Bruce Fields:
"Two main issues:
- We found that turning on pNFS by default (when it's configured at
build time) was too aggressive, so we want to switch the default
before the 4.0 release.
- Recent client changes to increase open parallelism uncovered a
serious bug lurking in the server's open code.
Also fix a krb5/selinux regression.
The rest is mainly smaller pNFS fixes"
* 'for-4.0' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux:
sunrpc: make debugfs file creation failure non-fatal
nfsd: require an explicit option to enable pNFS
NFSD: Fix bad update of layout in nfsd4_return_file_layout
NFSD: Take care the return value from nfsd4_encode_stateid
NFSD: Printk blocklayout length and offset as format 0x%llx
nfsd: return correct lockowner when there is a race on hash insert
nfsd: return correct openowner when there is a race to put one in the hash
NFSD: Put exports after nfsd4_layout_verify fail
NFSD: Error out when register_shrinker() fail
NFSD: Take care the return value from nfsd4_decode_stateid
NFSD: Check layout type when returning client layouts
NFSD: restore trace event lost in mismerge

====================
bnx2x: kdump related fixes
This patch series aims to fix bnx2x driver issues when loading in kdump kernel.
Both issues fixed here would be fatal to the device, requiring full reset of
the system in order to recover, preventing the device from serving its purpose
in the kdump environment.

When IOMM-vtd is active, once main kernel crashes unfinished DMAE transactions
will be blocked, putting the HW in an error state which will cause further
transactions to timeout.
Current employed logic uses wrong macros, causing the first function to be the
only function that cleanups that error state during its probe/load.
This patch allows all the functions to successfully re-load in kdump kernel.

When running in a kdump kernel, it's very likely that due to sync. loss with
management firmware the first PCI function to probe and reach the previous
unload flow would decide it can reset the chip and continue onward. While doing
so, it will only close its own Rx port.
On a 4-port device where 2nd port on engine is a 1g-port, the 2nd port would
allow ingress traffic after the chip is reset [assuming it was active on the
first kernel]. This would later cause a HW attention.
This changes driver flow to close both ports' 1g capabilities during the
previous driver unload flow prior to the chip reset.

Currently the ahci_st driver will hang the system on probe, as the
st_configure_oob function does some register writes before the IP
is clocked. This patch moves the function call to after
ahci_platform_enable_resources (which enables the IP clock), and
resolves the hang.
Addtionally st_ahci_configure_oob should be called in the st_ahci_resume
function, so we also rectify that ensuring it is also called after
the IP clock has been enabled.

As part of testing ahci_st driver working on stih407 I noticed
several things wrong in the DT documentation: -
1) Compatible string doesn't match the driver code
2) pwr-rst reset isn't documented (but exists in the driver)
3) some whitespace issues (spaces not tabs)
Also add in a stih407 family example into the doc.

There's an issue with the way the RX A-MPDU reorder timer is
deleted that can cause a kernel crash like this:
* tid_rx is removed - call_rcu(ieee80211_free_tid_rx)
* station is destroyed
* reorder timer fires before ieee80211_free_tid_rx() runs,
accessing the station, thus potentially crashing due to
the use-after-free
The station deletion is protected by synchronize_net(), but
that isn't enough -- ieee80211_free_tid_rx() need not have
run when that returns (it deletes the timer.) We could use
rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_net(), but that's much
more expensive.
Instead, to fix this, add a field tracking that the session
is being deleted. In this case, the only re-arming of the
timer happens with the reorder spinlock held, so make that
code not rearm it if the session is being deleted and also
delete the timer after setting that field. This ensures the
timer cannot fire after ___ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session()
returns, which fixes the problem.

Use the new tick_suspend/resume_local() and get rid of the
homebrewn implementation of these in the ARM bL switcher. The
check for the cpumask is completely pointless. There is no harm
to suspend a per cpu tick device unconditionally. If that's a
real issue then we fix it proper at the core level and not with
some completely undocumented hacks in some random core code.
Move the tick internals to the core code, now that this nuisance
is gone.

Xen calls on every cpu into tick_resume() which is just wrong.
tick_resume() is for the syscore global suspend/resume
invocation. What XEN really wants is a per cpu local resume
function.
Provide a tick_resume_local() function and use it in XEN.
Also provide a complementary tick_suspend_local() and modify
tick_unfreeze() and tick_freeze(), respectively, to use the
new local tick resume/suspend functions.

clockevents_notify() is a leftover from the early design of the
clockevents facility. It's really not a notification mechanism,
it's a multiplex call.
We are way better off to have explicit calls instead of this
monstrosity. Split out the suspend/resume() calls and invoke
them directly from the call sites.
No locking required at this point because these calls happen
with interrupts disabled and a single cpu online.

The ASRock Q1900DC-ITX mainboard (Baytrail-D) hangs randomly in
both BIOS and UEFI mode while rebooting unless reboot=pci is
used. Add a quirk to reboot via the pci method.
The problem is very intermittent and hard to debug, it might succeed
rebooting just fine 40 times in a row - but fails half a dozen times
the next day. It seems to be slightly less common in BIOS CSM mode
than native UEFI (with the CSM disabled), but it does happen in either
mode. Since I've started testing this patch in late january, rebooting
has been 100% reliable.
Most of the time it already hangs during POST, but occasionally it
might even make it through the bootloader and the kernel might even
start booting, but then hangs before the mode switch. The same symptoms
occur with grub-efi, gummiboot and grub-pc, just as well as (at least)
kernel 3.16-3.19 and 4.0-rc6 (I haven't tried older kernels than 3.16).
Upgrading to the most current mainboard firmware of the ASRock
Q1900DC-ITX, version 1.20, does not improve the situation.
( Searching the web seems to suggest that other Bay Trail-D mainboards
might be affected as well. )

A couple more IIO fixes.
* Fix check for HAS_IOMEM in the cc100001_adc driver to avoid build errors.
Rather curiously it was ORed with Regulator and clock support.
* vf610 driver was trying to use an ADC clock outside the possible
spec on some boards. The driver assumed a fixed clock speed previously
across all boards, but that is not true. This fix ensures that the
reported frequency is correct on all boards.
* The adis imu common code directly set the current trigger to the

leading to a double free via a particular path of changing the trigger
then removing the driver.

When allocating memory for the copy of the FDT that the stub
modifies and passes to the kernel, it uses the current size as
an estimate of how much memory to allocate, and increases it page
by page if it turns out to be too small. However, when loading
the FDT from a UEFI configuration table, the estimated size is
left at its default value of zero, and the allocation loop runs
starting from zero all the way up to the allocation size that
finally fits the updated FDT.
Instead, retrieve the size of the FDT from the FDT header when
loading it from the UEFI config table.

Currently x86-64 efi_call_phys_prolog() saves into a global variable (save_pgd),
and efi_call_phys_epilog() restores the kernel pagetables from that global
variable.
Change this to a cleaner save/restore pattern where the saving function returns
the saved object and the restore function restores that.
Apply the same concept to the 32-bit code as well.
Plus this approach, as an added bonus, allows us to express the
!efi_enabled(EFI_OLD_MEMMAP) situation in a clean fashion as well,
via a 'NULL' return value.

Tapasweni Pathak reported that we do a kmalloc() in efi_call_phys_prolog()
on x86-64 while having interrupts disabled, which is a big no-no, as
kmalloc() can sleep.
Solve this by removing the irq disabling from the prolog/epilog calls
around EFI calls: it's unnecessary, as in this stage we are single
threaded in the boot thread, and we don't ever execute this from
interrupt contexts.

the previous approach used in ancient drivers (sca3000) where we just
exposed the hardware buffer directly to userspace. Very few pieces of
hardware have sufficiently long buffers for that to be an adequate solution.
* bmc150_accel - hardware fifo support.
* mlx90614 - support dual IR sensor devices + some refactoring to clean up the
code and allow some other functionality currently under review.
* L3GD20H gyroscope support added to the st_gyro driver.
* lis3lv02d accelerometer added to the st_gyro driver. Note this part is
also supported by the older lis3 driver under misc. A lengthy discussion
took place and concluded that holding parts out on the basis that whole
driver would be subsumed into this one was counter productive. Better
to add part support and add additional features as people need them.
Basically there was not advantage in not merging the support.
* max517 driver gains support for MAX520 and MAX521 DACs.
Documentation
* 3.20 -> 4.0 renaming for recent docs. Whilst technically a fix, I think
people will cope until the next merge merge window.
* An ABI typo hat -> What: More ABIs should have hats.
* Document in_rot_offset, illuminance_raw and illuminance_scale.
Cleanups
* Fix a scale extraction bug in generic_buffer.c example.
* Constify a load of device tree related structures.

Logically, we just want to jump around the following instruction
and its prologue/epilogue:
call *sys_call_table(,%rax,8)
if the syscall number is too big - we do not specifically target
the "int_ret_from_sys_call" label.
Use a local, numerical label for this jump, for more clarity.
This also makes the code smaller:
-ffffffff8187756b: 0f 87 0f 00 00 00 ja ffffffff81877580 <int_ret_from_sys_call>
+ffffffff8187756b: 77 0f ja ffffffff8187757c <int_ret_from_sys_call>
because jumps to global labels are never translated to short jump
instructions by GAS.
