The musb_dsps driver is special in that the parent (glue) device's
driver is accessing registers mapped by the child. The clock is however
shared and is managed by the grandparent device.
Since commit 869c59782981 ("usb: musb: dsps: add support for suspend and
resume") the dsps driver has been accessing these registers as part of
suspend and resume.
The parent driver obviously cannot runtime resume the child during
system suspend and is currently relying on the fact that the child will
be RPM_ACTIVE throughout suspend. The suspend implementation also makes
sure to check that the child is indeed present (and hence the clock
enabled) before accessing the registers.
Let's add an explicit runtime resume of the glue device itself to enable
the clock before doing the register accesses in case these assumptions ever
change (i.e. if the child is left runtime suspended).
Note that the glue-timer cancellation is moved after the child-presence
check to keep error handling simple. This should be fine as the timer is
not setup until the controller is being registered and at that time
glue->musb and its driver data have already been initialised.

Make sure that the controller is runtime resumed when system suspending
to avoid an external abort when accessing the interrupt registers:
Unhandled fault: external abort on non-linefetch (0x1008) at 0xd025840a
...
[<c05481a4>] (musb_default_readb) from [<c0545abc>] (musb_disable_interrupts+0x84/0xa8)
[<c0545abc>] (musb_disable_interrupts) from [<c0546b08>] (musb_suspend+0x38/0xb8)
[<c0546b08>] (musb_suspend) from [<c04a57f8>] (platform_pm_suspend+0x3c/0x64)
This is easily reproduced on a BBB by enabling the peripheral port only
(as the host port may enable the shared clock) and keeping it
disconnected so that the controller is runtime suspended. (Well, you
would also need to the not-yet-merged am33xx-suspend patches by Dave
Gerlach to be able to suspend the BBB.)
This is a regression that was introduced by commit 1c4d0b4e1806 ("usb:
musb: Remove pm_runtime_set_irq_safe") which allowed the parent glue
device to runtime suspend and thereby exposed a couple of older issues:
Register accesses without explicitly making sure the controller is
runtime resumed during suspend was first introduced by commit c338412b5ded
("usb: musb: unconditionally save and restore the context on suspend")
in 3.14.
Commit a1fc1920aaaa ("usb: musb: core: make sure musb is in RPM_ACTIVE on
resume") later started setting the RPM status to active during resume,
and this was also implicitly relying on the parent always being active.
Since commit 71723f95463d ("PM / runtime: print error when activating a
child to unactive parent") this now also results in the following
warning:
musb-hdrc musb-hdrc.0: runtime PM trying to activate child device
musb-hdrc.0 but parent (47401400.usb) is not active
This patch has been verified on 4.13-rc2, 4.12 and 4.9 using a BBB
(the dsps glue would always be active also in 4.8).

The changes in this commit are also being sent to the main rtlwifi
drivers in wireless-next; however, these changes will also be useful for
any debugging of r8822be before it gets moved into the main tree.
Use debugfs to dump register and btcoex status, and also write registers
and h2c.
We create topdir in /sys/kernel/debug/rtlwifi/, and use the MAC address
as subdirectory with several entries to dump mac_reg, bb_reg, rf_reg etc.
An example is
/sys/kernel/debug/rtlwifi/00-11-22-33-44-55-66/mac_0
This change permits examination of device registers in a dynamic manner,
a feature not available with the current debug mechanism.
We use seq_file to replace RT_TRACE to dump status, then we can use 'cat'
to access btcoex's status through debugfs.
(i.e. /sys/kernel/debug/rtlwifi/00-11-22-33-44-55-66/btcoex)
Other related changes are
1. implement btc_disp_dbg_msg() to access btcoex's common status.
2. remove obsolete field bt_exist

The "lock_page_killable()" function waits for exclusive access to the
page lock bit using the WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE bit in the waitqueue entry
set.
That means that if it gets woken up, other waiters may have been
skipped.
That, in turn, means that if it sees the page being unlocked, it *must*
take that lock and return success, even if a lethal signal is also
pending.
So instead of checking for lethal signals first, we need to check for
them after we've checked the actual bit that we were waiting for. Even
if that might then delay the killing of the process.
This matches the order of the old "wait_on_bit_lock()" infrastructure
that the page locking used to use (and is still used in a few other
areas).
Note that if we still return an error after having unsuccessfully tried
to acquire the page lock, that is ok: that means that some other thread
was able to get ahead of us and lock the page, and when that other
thread then unlocks the page, the wakeup event will be repeated. So any
other pending waiters will now get properly woken up.

The dynamic ITR algorithm depends on a calculation of usecs which
assumes that the interrupts have been firing constantly at the interrupt
throttle rate. This is not guaranteed because we could have a low packet
rate, or have been polling in software.
We'll estimate whether this is the case by using jiffies to determine if
we've been too long. If the time difference of jiffies is larger we are
guaranteed to have an incorrect calculation. If the time difference of
jiffies is smaller we might have been polling some but the difference
shouldn't affect the calculation too much.
This ensures that we don't get stuck in BULK latency during certain rare
situations where we receive bursts of packets that force us into NAPI
polling.

Since commit c56625d59726 ("i40e/i40evf: change dynamic interrupt
thresholds") a new higher latency ITR setting called I40E_ULTRA_LATENCY
was added with a cryptic comment about how it was meant for adjusting Rx
more aggressively when streaming small packets.
This mode was attempting to calculate packets per second and then kick
in when we have a huge number of small packets.
Unfortunately, the ULTRA setting was kicking in for workloads it wasn't
intended for including single-thread UDP_STREAM workloads.
This wasn't caught for a variety of reasons. First, the ip_defrag
routines were improved somewhat which makes the UDP_STREAM test still
reasonable at 10GbE, even when dropped down to 8k interrupts a second.
Additionally, some other obvious workloads appear to work fine, such
as TCP_STREAM.
The number 40k doesn't make sense for a number of reasons. First, we
absolutely can do more than 40k packets per second. Second, we calculate
the value inline in an integer, which sometimes can overflow resulting
in using incorrect values.
If we fix this overflow it makes it even more likely that we'll enter
ULTRA mode which is the opposite of what we want.
The ULTRA mode was added originally as a way to reduce CPU utilization
during a small packet workload where we weren't keeping up anyways. It
should never have been kicking in during these other workloads.
Given the issues outlined above, let's remove the ULTRA latency mode. If
necessary, a better solution to the CPU utilization issue for small
packet workloads will be added in a future patch.

In commit 96db776a3682 ("i40e/vf: fix interrupt affinity bug")
we added some code to force exit of polling in case we did
not have the correct CPU. This is important since it was possible for
the IRQ affinity to be changed while the CPU is pegged at 100%. This can
result in the polling routine being stuck on the wrong CPU until
traffic finally stops.
Unfortunately, the implementation, "if the CPU is correct, exit as
normal, otherwise, fall-through to the end-polling exit" is incredibly
confusing to reason about. In this case, the normal flow looks like the
exception, while the exception actually occurs far away from the if
statement and comment.
We recently discovered and fixed a bug in this code because we were
incorrectly initializing the affinity mask.
Re-write the code so that the exceptional case is handled at the check,
rather than having the logic be spread through the regular exit flow.
This does end up with minor code duplication, but the resulting code is
much easier to reason about.
The new logic is identical, but inverted. If we are running on a CPU not
in our affinity mask, we'll exit polling. However, the code flow is much
easier to understand.
Note that we don't actually have to check for MSI-X, because in the MSI
case we'll only have one q_vector, but its default affinity mask should
be correct as it includes all CPUs when it's initialized. Further, we
could at some point add code to setup the notifier for the non-MSI-X
case and enable this workaround for that case too, if desired, though
there isn't much gain since its unlikely to be the common case.

On older kernels a call to irq_set_affinity_hint does not guarantee that
the IRQ affinity will be set. If nothing else on the system sets the IRQ
affinity this can result in a bug in the i40e_napi_poll() routine where
we notice that our interrupt fired on the "wrong" CPU according to our
internal affinity_mask variable.
This results in a bug where we continuously tell NAPI to stop polling to
move the interrupt to a new CPU, but the CPU never changes because our
affinity mask does not match the actual mask setup for the IRQ.
The root problem is a mismatched affinity mask value. So lets initialize
the value to cpu_possible_mask instead. This ensures that prior to the
first time we get an IRQ affinity notification we'll have the mask set
to include every possible CPU.
We use cpu_possible_mask instead of cpu_online_mask since the former is
almost certainly never going to change, while the later might change
after we've made a copy.

If we don't have MSI-X enabled, we handle interrupts on all icr0. This
is a special case, so let's move the conditional into
i40e_update_enable_itr() in order to make i40e_napi_poll easier to
read about.
