Adding subdirs-ccflags-y := -Werror to arch/mips/Kbuild
let us in one go cover all files with -Werror.
In addition this allows us to remove the
individual -Werror definition in various Makefile.
Adding the definition to Kbuild as a recursive
option help us not to forget to do so.
With this change we now compile arch/mips/kernel/cpufreq with -Werror
One drawback:
When specifying a subdirectory covered by the Kbuild file like this:
make arch/mips/kernel/
then kbuild fails to pick up the -Werror definition.

Replace phys_to_dma()/dma_to_phys() looping algorithm with an O(1) algorithm
The approach taken is inspired by the sparse memory implementation: take a
certain number of high-order bits off the address them, use this as an
index into a table containing an offset to the desired address and add
it to the original value. There is a table for mapping physical addresses
to DMA addresses and another one for the reverse mapping. The table sizes
depend on how fine-grained the mappings need to be; Coarser granularity
less to smaller tables. On a processor with 32-bit physical and DMA
addresses, with 4 MIB granularity, memory usage is two 2048-byte arrays.
Each 32-byte cache line thus covers 64 MiB of address space.
Also, renames phys_to_bus() to phys_to_dma() and bus_to_phys() to
dma_to_phys() to align with kernel usage.
[Ralf: Fixed silly build breakage due to stackoverflow warning caused by
huge array on stack.]

The previous patch 4a86f2d27733f610e642649aca3e82e86fca9e22 (lmo) rsp.
84a6fcb368a080620d12fc4d79e07902dbee7335 (kernel.org) was wrong.
The BCM47xx architecture maps the ram into a 128MB address space. It
will be spaced there as often as goes into the 128MB. Detection tries to
find the position where the same memory is found. When reading beyond
128MB the processor will throw an exception. If 128MB RAM is installed,
it will not find a memory alias because it tries to read beyond the 128MB
border. Now it just assumes 128MB installed ram if it can not find an
alias.

The 'mult' element of struct clock_event_device must never be wider
than 32-bits. If it were, it would get truncated when used by
clockevent_delta2ns() when this calls do_div().
We can meet this requirement by using clockevent_set_clock() to set
the MULT and SHIFT values.

commit 3d0518f4, "ext4: New rec_len encoding for very
large blocksizes" made several changes to this path, but from
a perf perspective, un-inlining ext4_rec_len_from_disk() seems
most significant. This function is called from ext4_check_dir_entry(),
which on a file-creation workload is called extremely often.
I tested this with bonnie:
# bonnie++ -u root -s 0 -f -x 200 -d /mnt/test -n 32
(this does 200 iterations) and got this for the file creations:
ext4 stock: Average = 21206.8 files/s
ext4 inlined: Average = 22346.7 files/s (+5%)

I often use "ethtool -i" command to check what driver controls the
ehternet device. But because current virtio_net driver doesn't
support "ethtool -i", it becomes the following:
# ethtool -i eth3
Cannot get driver information: Operation not supported
This patch simply adds the "ethtool -i" support. The following is the
result when using the virtio_net driver with my patch applied to.
# ethtool -i eth3
driver: virtio_net
version: N/A
firmware-version: N/A
bus-info: virtio0
Personally, "-i" is one of the most frequently-used option, and most
network drivers support "ethtool -i", so I think virtio_net also
should do.

RxRPC can potentially deadlock as rxrpc_resend_time_expired() wants to get
call->state_lock so that it can alter the state of an RxRPC call. However, its
caller (call_timer_fn()) has an apparent lock on the timer struct.
The problem is that rxrpc_resend_time_expired() isn't permitted to lock
call->state_lock as this could cause a deadlock against rxrpc_send_abort() as
that takes state_lock and then attempts to delete the resend timer by calling
del_timer_sync().
The deadlock can occur because del_timer_sync() will sit there forever waiting
for rxrpc_resend_time_expired() to return, but the latter may then wait for
call->state_lock, which rxrpc_send_abort() holds around del_timer_sync()...
This leads to a warning appearing in the kernel log that looks something like
the attached.
It should be sufficient to simply dispense with the locks. It doesn't matter
if we set the resend timer expired event bit and queue the event processor
whilst we're changing state to one where the resend timer is irrelevant as the
event can just be ignored by the processor thereafter.

Create a new attribute for virtio-blk devices that will fetch the serial number
of the block device. This attribute can be used by udev to create disk/by-id
symlinks for devices that don't have a UUID (filesystem) associated with them.
ATA_IDENTIFY strings are special in that they can be up to 20 chars long
and aren't required to be nul-terminated. The buffer is also zero-padded
meaning that if the serial is 19 chars or less that we get a nul-terminated
string. When copying this value into a string buffer, we must be careful to
copy up to the nul (if it present) and only 20 if it is longer and not to
attempt to nul terminate; this isn't needed.
Changes since v1:
- Added BUILD_BUG_ON() for PAGE_SIZE check
- Removed min() since BUILD_BUG_ON() handles the check
- Replaced serial_sysfs() by copying id directly to buffer

If we want to support barriers with the cache=writethrough mode in qemu
we need to tell the block layer that we only need queue drains to
implement a barrier. Follow the model set by SCSI and IDE and assume
that there is no volatile write cache if the host doesn't advertize it.
While this might imply working barriers on old qemu versions or other
hypervisors that actually have a volatile write cache this is only a
cosmetic issue - these hypervisors don't guarantee any data integrity
with or without this patch, but with the patch we at least provide
data ordering.

On my (32-bit x86) machine, sys_init_module() uses 124 bytes of stack
once load_module() is inlined.
This effectively reverts ffb4ba76 which inlined it due to stack
pressure.

This simply hoists more code out of load_module; we also put the
identification of the extable and dynamic debug table in with the
others in find_module_sections().
We move the taint check to the actual add/remove of the dynamic debug
info: this is certain (find_module_sections is too early).

Instead of copying and allocating the args and storing it in
load_info, we can just allocate them right before we need them.

Pass the struct load_info into all the other functions in module
loading. This neatens things and makes them more consistent.

Restore the stub module_remove_modinfo_attrs, remove the now-unused
!CONFIG_SYSFS module_sysfs_init.
Also, rename mod_kobject_remove() to mod_sysfs_teardown() as
it is the logical counterpart to mod_sysfs_setup now.

We change the sysfs functions to take struct load_info, and call
them all in mod_sysfs_setup().
We also clean up the #ifdefs a little.
