Currently, the coherency fabric support registers two bus notifiers;
one for platform, one for pci bus types, with the same notifier block.
However, this is illegal and can cause serious issues: the notifier
block is also a link in the notifier list and cannot be inserted twice.
This commit fixes this by using different notifier blocks (with the same
notifier callback) to set the platform and pci bus types notifiers.

The patch corrects the security strength of the HMAC-SHA1 DRBG to 128
bits. This strength defines the size of the seed required for the DRBG.
Thus, the patch lowers the seeding requirement from 256 bits to 128 bits
for HMAC-SHA1.

The current locking approach of the DRBG tries to keep the protected
code paths very minimal. It is therefore possible that two threads query
one DRBG instance at the same time. When thread A requests random
numbers, a shadow copy of the DRBG state is created upon which the
request for A is processed. After finishing the state for A's request is
merged back into the DRBG state. If now thread B requests random numbers
from the same DRBG after the request for thread A is received, but
before A's shadow state is merged back, the random numbers for B will be
identical to the ones for A. Please note that the time window is very
small for this scenario.
To prevent that there is even a theoretical chance for thread A and B
having the same DRBG state, the current time stamp is provided as
additional information string for each new request.
The addition of the time stamp as additional information string implies
that now all generate functions must be capable to process a linked
list with additional information strings instead of a scalar.

When the DRBG is initialized, the core is looked up using the DRBG name.
The name that can be used for the lookup is registered in
cra_driver_name. The cra_name value contains stdrng.
Thus, the lookup code must use crypto_tfm_alg_driver_name to obtain the
precise DRBG name and select the correct DRBG.

The CTR DRBG requires the update function to be called twice when
generating a random number. In both cases, update function must process
the additional information string by using the DF function. As the DF
produces the same result in both cases, we can save one invocation of
the DF function when the first DF function result is reused.
The result of the DF function is stored in the scratchpad storage. The
patch ensures that the scratchpad is not cleared when we want to reuse
the DF result. For achieving this, the CTR DRBG update function must
know by whom and in which scenario it is called. This information is
provided with the reseed parameter to the update function.

armada_370_xp_pmsu_idle_enter
In the inline asm part of the function armada_370_xp_pmsu_idle_enter()
the input operand was used. The intent here was to let the compiler
choose this register so it could do the optimization it
needed.
However an input operand is not supposed to be modified by the inline
asm code. This can lead to improper generated instructions.
In some case generated instruction the compiler made the choice to
reuse the same register to store the return value. But in the assembly
part this register was modified, so it can lead to return an wrong
value.
The fix is to use a clobber. Thanks to this the compiler will know
that the value of this register will be modified.

With commit b6b8a1451fc40412c57d1 that introduced
vmx_check_nested_events, checks for injectable interrupts happen
at different points in time for L1 and L2 that could potentially
cause a race. The regression occurs because KVM_REQ_EVENT is always
set when nested_run_pending is set even if there's no pending interrupt.
Consequently, there could be a small window when check_nested_events
returns without exiting to L1, but an interrupt comes through soon
after and it incorrectly, gets injected to L2 by inject_pending_event
Fix this by adding a call to check for nested events too when a check
for injectable interrupt returns true

The undo code assumes that, upon entering loss recovery, TCP
1) always retransmit something
2) the retransmission never fails locally (e.g., qdisc drop)
so undo_marker is set in tcp_enter_recovery() and undo_retrans is
incremented only when tcp_retransmit_skb() is successful.
When the assumption is broken because TCP's cwnd is too small to
retransmit or the retransmit fails locally. The next (DUP)ACK
would incorrectly revert the cwnd and the congestion state in
tcp_try_undo_dsack() or tcp_may_undo(). Subsequent (DUP)ACKs
may enter the recovery state. The sender repeatedly enter and
(incorrectly) exit recovery states if the retransmits continue to
fail locally while receiving (DUP)ACKs.
The fix is to initialize undo_retrans to -1 and start counting on
the first retransmission. Always increment undo_retrans even if the
retransmissions fail locally because they couldn't cause DSACKs to
undo the cwnd reduction.

The add_vxlan_port ndo driver code was wrongly testing whether HW vxlan offloads
are supported by the device instead of checking if they are currently enabled.
This causes the driver to configure the HW parser to conduct matching for vxlan
packets but since no steering rules were set, vxlan packets are dropped on RX.
Fix that by doing the right test, as done in the del_vxlan_port ndo handler.

The problem was triggered by these steps:
1) create socket, bind and then setsockopt for add mc group.
mreq.imr_multiaddr.s_addr = inet_addr("255.0.0.37");
mreq.imr_interface.s_addr = inet_addr("192.168.1.2");
setsockopt(sockfd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, &mreq, sizeof(mreq));
2) drop the mc group for this socket.
mreq.imr_multiaddr.s_addr = inet_addr("255.0.0.37");
mreq.imr_interface.s_addr = inet_addr("0.0.0.0");
setsockopt(sockfd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, &mreq, sizeof(mreq));
3) and then drop the socket, I found the mc group was still used by the dev:
netstat -g
Interface RefCnt Group
--------------- ------ ---------------------
eth2 1 255.0.0.37
Normally even though the IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP return error, the mc group still need
to be released for the netdev when drop the socket, but this process was broken when
route default is NULL, the reason is that:
The ip_mc_leave_group() will choose the in_dev by the imr_interface.s_addr, if input addr
is NULL, the default route dev will be chosen, then the ifindex is got from the dev,
then polling the inet->mc_list and return -ENODEV, but if the default route dev is NULL,
the in_dev and ifIndex is both NULL, when polling the inet->mc_list, the mc group will be
released from the mc_list, but the dev didn't dec the refcnt for this mc group, so
when dropping the socket, the mc_list is NULL and the dev still keep this group.
v1->v2: According Hideaki's suggestion, we should align with IPv6 (RFC3493) and BSDs,
so I add the checking for the in_dev before polling the mc_list, make sure when
we remove the mc group, dec the refcnt to the real dev which was using the mc address.
The problem would never happened again.

Let's say clock A and B are two gate clocks that share the same register
bit in hardware. Therefore they are registered as shared gate clocks
with imx_clk_gate2_shared().
In a scenario that only clock A is enabled by clk_enable(A) while B is
not used, the shared gate will be unexpectedly disabled in hardware.
It happens because clk_enable(A) increments the share_count from 0 to 1,
while clock B is unused to clock core, and therefore the core function
will just disable B by calling clk->ops->disable() directly. The
consequence of that call is share_count is decremented to 0 and the gate
is disabled in hardware, even though clock A is still in use.
The patch fixes the issue by initializing the share_count per hardware
state and returns enable state per share_count from .is_enabled() hook,
in case it's a shared gate.
While at it, add a check in clk_gate2_disable() to ensure it's never
called with a zero share_count.

A bug was introduced in NETDEV_CHANGE notifier sequence causing the
arp table to be sometimes spuriously cleared (including manual arp
entries marked permanent), upon network link carrier changes.
The changed argument for the notifier was applied only to a single
caller of NETDEV_CHANGE, missing among others netdev_state_change().
So upon net_carrier events induced by the network, which are
triggering a call to netdev_state_change(), arp_netdev_event() would
decide whether to clear or not arp cache based on random/junk stack
values (a kind of read buffer overflow).

In process_backlog the input_pkt_queue is only checked once for new
packets and quota is artificially reduced to reflect precisely the
number of packets on the input_pkt_queue so that the loop exits
appropriately.
This patches changes the behavior to be more straightforward and
less convoluted. Packets are processed until either the quota
is met or there are no more packets to process.
This patch seems to provide a small, but noticeable performance
improvement. The performance improvement is a result of staying
in the process_backlog loop longer which can reduce number of IPI's.

Some older router implementations still send Fragmentation Needed
errors with the Next-Hop MTU field set to zero. This is explicitly
described as an eventuality that hosts must deal with by the
standard (RFC 1191) since older standards specified that those
bits must be zero.
Linux had a generic (for all of IPv4) implementation of the algorithm
described in the RFC for searching a list of MTU plateaus for a good
value. Commit 46517008e116 ("ipv4: Kill ip_rt_frag_needed().")
removed this as part of the changes to remove the routing cache.
Subsequently any Fragmentation Needed packet with a zero Next-Hop
MTU has been discarded without being passed to the per-protocol
handlers or notifying userspace for raw sockets.
When there is a router which does not implement RFC 1191 on an
MTU limited path then this results in stalled connections since
large packets are discarded and the local protocols are not
notified so they never attempt to lower the pMTU.
One example I have seen is an OpenBSD router terminating IPSec
tunnels. It's worth pointing out that this case is distinct from
the BSD 4.2 bug which incorrectly calculated the Next-Hop MTU
since the commit in question dismissed that as a valid concern.
All of the per-protocols handlers implement the simple approach from
RFC 1191 of immediately falling back to the minimum value. Although
this is sub-optimal it is vastly preferable to connections hanging
indefinitely.
Remove the Next-Hop MTU != 0 check and allow such packets
to follow the normal path.

Enabling NO_HZ_FULL currently has the side effect of enabling callback
offloading on all CPUs. This results in lots of additional rcuo kthreads,
and can also increase context switching and wakeups, even in cases where
callback offloading is neither needed nor particularly desirable. This
commit therefore enables callback offloading on a given CPU only if
specifically requested at build time or boot time, or if that CPU has
been specifically designated (again, either at build time or boot time)
as a nohz_full CPU.

An 80-CPU system with a context-switch-heavy workload can require so
many NOCB kthread wakeups that the RCU grace-period kthreads spend several
tens of percent of a CPU just awakening things. This clearly will not
scale well: If you add enough CPUs, the RCU grace-period kthreads would
get behind, increasing grace-period latency.
To avoid this problem, this commit divides the NOCB kthreads into leaders
and followers, where the grace-period kthreads awaken the leaders each of
whom in turn awakens its followers. By default, the number of groups of
kthreads is the square root of the number of CPUs, but this default may
be overridden using the rcutree.rcu_nocb_leader_stride boot parameter.
This reduces the number of wakeups done per grace period by the RCU
grace-period kthread by the square root of the number of CPUs, but of
course by shifting those wakeups to the leaders. In addition, because
the leaders do grace periods on behalf of their respective followers,
the number of wakeups of the followers decreases by up to a factor of two.
Instead of being awakened once when new callbacks arrive and again
at the end of the grace period, the followers are awakened only at
the end of the grace period.
For a numerical example, in a 4096-CPU system, the grace-period kthread
would awaken 64 leaders, each of which would awaken its 63 followers
at the end of the grace period. This compares favorably with the 79
wakeups for the grace-period kthread on an 80-CPU system.

Fix backlight control for Acer TravelMate B113 Laptop by adding
it to the video_dmi_table.
A workaround before that was to use acpi_osi=Linux or
acpi_backlight=vendor on boot but even then, only the function-
keys worked.
With this change there is no need for boot parameters and DE's
controls work as well.

With win8 capabiltiy, the ACPI backlight control is broken.
The system also loses backlight setting when resuming from S3.
Add this model to the the ACPI video detect blacklist to make backlight
functionality work.
Although backlight functionality works via video.use_native_backlight=1,
this approach may be safer.

Some Thinkpad laptops' firmware will initiate a backlight level change
request through operation region on the events of AC plug/unplug, but
since we are not using firmware's interface to do the backlight setting
on these affected laptops, we do not want the firmware to use some
arbitrary value from its ASL variable to set the backlight level on
AC plug/unplug either.
