Pull NFS client fixes from Trond Myklebust:
"Apologies for the relative lateness of this pull request, however the
commits fix some issues with the NFS read/write code updates in
3.16-rc1 that can cause serious Oopsing when using small r/wsize. The
delay was mainly due to extra testing to make sure that the fixes
behave correctly.
Highlights include;
- Stable fix for an NFSv3 posix ACL regression
- Multiple fixes for regressions to the NFS generic read/write code:
- Fix page splitting bugs that come into play when a small
rsize/wsize read/write needs to be sent again (due to error
conditions or page redirty)
- Fix nfs_wb_page_cancel, which is called by the "invalidatepage"
method
- Fix 2 compile warnings about unused variables
- Fix a performance issue affecting unstable writes"
* tag 'nfs-for-3.16-3' of git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/trondmy/linux-nfs:

We attempt to remove noise from coordinates reported by devices in
input_handle_abs_event(), unfortunately, unless we were dropping the
event altogether, we were ignoring the adjusted value and were passing
on the original value instead.

The userspace interface for acceleration sensors is documented as using
m/s^2 units [Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio]
The fullscale raw values for the BMA80 corresponds to -/+ 1, 1.5, 2, etc G
depending on the selected mode.
The scale table was converting to G rather than m/s^2.
Change the scaling table to match the documented interface.

When creating the demux table we need to iterate over the selected scan mask for
the buffer to get the samples which should be copied to destination buffer.
Right now the code uses the mask which contains all active channels, which means
the demux table contains entries which causes it to copy all the samples from
source to destination buffer one by one without doing any demuxing.

commit 99994cd btrfs: dev delete should remove sysfs entry
added a btrfs_kobj_rm_device, which dereferences device->bdev...
right after we check whether device->bdev might be NULL.
I don't honestly know if it's possible to have a NULL device->bdev
here, but assuming that it is (given the test), we need to move
the kobject removal to be under that test.

xfstests generic/127 detected this problem.
With commit 7fc34a62ca4434a79c68e23e70ed26111b7a4cf8, now fsync will only flush
data within the passed range. This is the cause of the above problem,
-- btrfs's fsync has a stage called 'sync log' which will wait for all the
ordered extents it've recorded to finish.
In xfstests/generic/127, with mixed operations such as truncate, fallocate,
punch hole, and mapwrite, we get some pre-allocated extents, and mapwrite will
mmap, and then msync. And I find that msync will wait for quite a long time
(about 20s in my case), thanks to ftrace, it turns out that the previous
fallocate calls 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' to flush dirty pages, but as the
range of dirty pages may be larger than 'btrfs_wait_ordered_range()' wants,
there can be some ordered extents created but not getting corresponding pages
flushed, then they're left in memory until we fsync which runs into the
stage 'sync log', and fsync will just wait for the system writeback thread
to flush those pages and get ordered extents finished, so the latency is
inevitable.
This adds a flush similar to btrfs_start_ordered_extent() in
btrfs_wait_logged_extents() to fix that.

The expression entropy_count -= ibytes << (ENTROPY_SHIFT + 3) could
actually increase entropy_count if during assignment of the unsigned

Such line contains following EFI initialization code:
boot_params.efi_info.efi_systab_hi = (__u32)(__pa(efi_systab_xen) >> 32);
There is no issue if x86 64-bit kernel is build. However, 32-bit case
generate warning (even if that code will not be executed because Xen
does not work on 32-bit EFI platforms) due to __pa() returning unsigned long
type which has 32-bits width. So move whole EFI initialization stuff
to separate function and build it conditionally to avoid above mentioned
warning on x86 32-bit architecture.

The EFI boot stub goes to great pains to relocate the kernel image to
an appropriately aligned address, as indicated by the ->kernel_alignment
field in the bzImage header. However, for the PE stub entry case, we
can request that the EFI PE/COFF loader do the work for us.
Fix by exposing the desired alignment via the SectionAlignment field
in the PE/COFF headers. Despite its name, this field provides an
overall alignment requirement for the loaded file. (Naturally, the
FileAlignment field describes the alignment for individual sections.)
There is no way in the PE/COFF headers to express the concept of
min_alignment; we therefore do not expose the minimum (as opposed to
preferred) alignment.

The original patch is from Ben Hutchings's contribution to debian
kernel. Got Ben's permission to remove the code of efi-pstore.c and
send to linux-efi:
https://github.com/BlankOn/linux-debian/blob/master/debian/patches/features/all/efi-autoload-efivars.patch
efivars is generally useful to have on EFI systems, and in some cases
it may be impossible to load it after a kernel upgrade in order to
complete a boot loader update. At the same time we don't want to waste
memory on non-EFI systems by making them built-in.
Instead, give them module aliases as if they are platform drivers, and
register a corresponding platform device whenever EFI runtime services
are available. This should trigger udev to load them.

The comment describing how struct efivars->lock is used hasn't been
updated in sync with the code. Fix it.

efi_set_rtc_mmss() is never used to set RTC due to bugs found
on many EFI platforms. It is set directly by mach_set_rtc_mmss().
Hence, remove unused efi_set_rtc_mmss() function.

We've got constants, so let's use them instead of hard-coded values.

This patch enables EFI usage under Xen dom0. Standard EFI Linux
Kernel infrastructure cannot be used because it requires direct
access to EFI data and code. However, in dom0 case it is not possible
because above mentioned EFI stuff is fully owned and controlled
by Xen hypervisor. In this case all calls from dom0 to EFI must
be requested via special hypercall which in turn executes relevant
EFI code in behalf of dom0.
When dom0 kernel boots it checks for EFI availability on a machine.
If it is detected then artificial EFI system table is filled.
Native EFI callas are replaced by functions which mimics them
by calling relevant hypercall. Later pointer to EFI system table
is passed to standard EFI machinery and it continues EFI subsystem
initialization taking into account that there is no direct access
to EFI boot services, runtime, tables, structures, etc. After that
system runs as usual.
This patch is based on Jan Beulich and Tang Liang work.
