Add more determinism to initial namespace device-name assignments by
sorting the namespaces by starting dpa.

If label scanning finds multiple valid pmem namespaces allow them to be
surfaced rather than fail namespace scanning. Support for creating
multiple namespaces per region is saved for a later patch.
Note that this adds some new error messages to clarify which of the pmem
namespaces in the set are potentially impacted by invalid labels.

Update nfit_test to handle multiple sub-allocations within a given pmem
region. The mock resource now tracks and un-tracks sub-ranges as they
are requested and released (either explicitly or via devm callback).

Memblock is the standard kernel boot-time memory tracker/allocator. Use it

other features.
Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

When a CPU is physically added to a system then the MADT table is not
updated.
If subsequently a kdump kernel is started on that physically added CPU then
the ACPI enumeration fails to provide the information for this CPU which is
now the boot CPU of the kdump kernel.
As a consequence, generic_processor_info() is not invoked for that CPU so
the number of enumerated processors is 0 and none of the initializations,
including the logical package id management, are performed.
We have code which relies on the correctness of the logical package map and
other information which is initialized via generic_processor_info().
Executing such code will result in undefined behaviour or kernel crashes.
This problem applies only to the kdump kernel because a normal kexec will
switch to the original boot CPU, which is enumerated in MADT, before
jumping into the kexec kernel.
The boot code already has a check for num_processors equal 0 in
prefill_possible_map(). We can use that check as an indicator that the
enumeration of the boot CPU did not happen and invoke generic_processor_info()
for it. That initializes the relevant data for the boot CPU and therefore
prevents subsequent failure.

The 8192eu suffered from two issues when reloading the driver.
The same problems as with the 8723bu where REG_RX_WAIT_CCA bits 22 and
23 didn't get set in rtl8192e_enable_rf().
In addition it also seems prone to issues when setting REG_RF_CTRL to
0 intead of just disabling the RF_ENABLE bit. Similar to what was
causing issues with the 8188eu.
With this patch I can successfully reload the driver and reassociate
to an APi with an 8192eu dongle.

The generic disable_rf() function clears bits 22 and 23 in
REG_RX_WAIT_CCA, however we did not re-enable them again in
rtl8723b_enable_rf()

A device running without RX package aggregation could return more data
in the USB packet than the actual network packet. In this case we
could would clone the skb but then determine that that there was no
packet to handle and exit without freeing the cloned skb first.
This has so far only been observed with 8188eu devices, but could
affect others.

====================
rxrpc: Fixes
This set of patches contains a bunch of fixes:
(1) Fix an oops on incoming call to a local endpoint without a bound
service.
(2) Only ping for a lost reply in a client call (this is inapplicable to
service calls).
(3) Fix maybe uninitialised variable warnings in the ACK/ABORT sending
function by splitting it.
(4) Fix loss of PING RESPONSE ACKs due to them being subsumed by PING ACK
generation.
(5) OpenAFS improperly terminates calls it makes as a client under some
circumstances by not fully hard-ACK'ing the last DATA packets. This
is alleviated by a new call appearing on the same channel implicitly
completing the previous call on that channel. Handle this implicit
completion.
(6) Properly handle expiry of service calls due to the aforementioned
improper termination with no follow up call to implicitly complete it:
(a) The call's background processor needs to be queued to complete the
call, send an abort and notify the socket.
(b) The call's background processor needs to notify the socket (or the
kernel service) when it has completed the call.
(c) A negative error code must thence be returned to the kernel
service so that it knows the call died.
(d) The AFS filesystem must detect the fatal error and end the call.
(7) Must produce a DELAY ACK when the actual service operation takes a
while to process and must cancel the ACK when the reply is ready.
(8) Don't request an ACK on the last DATA packet of the Tx phase as this
confuses OpenAFS.

Since linux-3.15, netlink_dump() can use up to 16384 bytes skb
allocations.
Due to struct skb_shared_info ~320 bytes overhead, we end up using
order-3 (on x86) page allocations, that might trigger direct reclaim and
add stress.
The intent was really to attempt a large allocation but immediately
fallback to a smaller one (order-1 on x86) in case of memory stress.
On recent kernels (linux-4.4), we can remove __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM to
meet the goal. Old kernels would need to remove __GFP_WAIT
While we are at it, since we do an order-3 allocation, allow to use
all the allocated bytes instead of 16384 to reduce syscalls during
large dumps.
iproute2 already uses 32KB recvmsg() buffer sizes.
Alexei provided an initial patch downsizing to SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(16384)

as part of fanout_add(). When processing a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event in

The KSZ9031 skew registers contain an offset, the chip's default value
is "neutral" which does not add any skew. Programming a 0 into a skew
property will actually set it the maximal negative adjustment and not
to a neutral position as one would expect.
Explain this situation in the devicetree binding documentation and list
the settings that the chip considers neutral.
Changing the implementation to accept negative values would have been
a better solution, but would break existing configurations.

Instead of flushing the copy ops when an packet is complete, complete
packets when their copy ops are done. This improves performance by
reducing the number of grant copy hypercalls.
Latency is still limited by the relatively small size of the copy
batch.

Instead of only placing one skb on the guest rx ring at a time, process
a batch of up-to 64. This improves performance by ~10% in some tests.

When an skb is removed from the guest rx queue, immediately wake the
tx queue, instead of after processing them.

Refactor the to-guest (rx) path to:
1. Push responses for completed skbs earlier, reducing latency.
2. Reduce the per-queue memory overhead by greatly reducing the
maximum number of grant copy ops in each hypercall (from 4352 to
64). Each struct xenvif_queue is now only 44 kB instead of 220 kB.
3. Make the code more maintainable.

As far as I am aware only very old Windows network frontends make use of
this style of passing GSO packets from backend to frontend. These
frontends can easily be replaced by the freely available Xen Project
Windows PV network frontend, which uses the 'default' mechanism for
passing GSO packets, which is also used by all Linux frontends.
NOTE: Removal of this feature will not cause breakage in old Windows
frontends. They simply will no longer receive GSO packets - the
packets instead being fragmented in the backend.

The netback source module has become very large and somewhat confusing.
This patch simply moves all code related to the backend to frontend (i.e
guest side rx) data-path into a separate rx source module.
This patch contains no functional change, it is code movement and
minimal changes to avoid patch style-check issues.
