This is additional to the
commit ea1627c20c34 ("tcp: minor optimizations around tcp_hdr() usage").
At this point, skb->data is same with tcp_hdr() as tcp header has not
been pulled yet. So use the less expensive one to get the tcp header.
Remove the third parameter of tcp_rcv_established() and put it into
the function body.
Furthermore, the local variables are listed as a reverse christmas tree :)

The iSER driver reduces max_sectors. For example, if you load the
ib_iser module with max_sectors=1024, you will see that
/sys/class/block/<bdev>/queue/max_hw_sectors_kb is 508. It is an
incorrect value. The expected value is (max_sectors * sector_size) /
1024 = 512.
Reducing of max_sectors can cause performance degradation due to
unnecessary splitting of IO requests.
The number of pages per MR has been fixed here, so there is no longer
any need to reduce max_sectors.
Fixes: 9c674815d346 ("IB/iser: Fix max_sectors calculation")

In order to forward the guest's ARCH_WORKAROUND_2 calls to EL3,
add a small(-ish) sequence to handle it at EL2. Special care must
be taken to track the state of the guest itself by updating the
workaround flags. We also rely on patching to enable calls into
the firmware.
Note that since we need to execute branches, this always executes

A number of extern struct declarations in p80211types.h were causing
checkpatch warnings: "extern prototypes should be avoided in .h files"
and "function definition argument 'xxxxxx' should also have an
identifier name".
This appears to be a result of using a macro to form the declarations
and checkpatch consequently misinterpreting the declarations as
function prototypes.
On checking, the declarations have no corresponding definition in the
driver and are not used, so they are removed along with the macro used
to construct them, which is not needed elsewhere. After this change,
checkpatch reports that p80211types.h has no obvious issues.

The refill operation of the xattr cache does not know the
reply size in advance, so it makes a guess based on
the maxeasize value returned by the MDS.
In practice, it allocates 16 KiB for the common case and
4 MiB for the large xattr case. However, a typical reply
is just a few hundred bytes.
If we follow the conservative approach, we can prepare a
single memory page for the reply. It is large enough for
any reasonable xattr set and, at the same time, it does
not require multiple page memory reclaim, which can be
costly.
If, for a specific file, the reply is larger than a single
page, the client is prepared to handle that and will fall back
to non-cached xattr code. Indeed, if this happens often and
xattrs are often used to store large values, it makes sense to
disable the xattr cache at all since it wasn't designed for
such [mis]use.

Originally, the limitation of ACL entries is 32, that is not
enough for some use cases. In fact, restricting ACL entries
count is mainly for preparing the RPC reply buffer to receive
the ACL data. So we cannot make the ACL entries count to be
unlimited. But we can enlarge the RPC reply buffer to hold
more ACL entries. On the other hand, MDT backend filesystem
has its own EA size limitation. For example, for ldiskfs case,
if large EA enable, then the max ACL size is 1048492 bytes;
otherwise, it is 4012 bytes. For ZFS backend, such value is
32768 bytes. With such hard limitation, we can calculate how
many ACL entries we can have at most. This patch increases
the RPC reply buffer to match such hard limitation. For old
client, to avoid buffer overflow because of large ACL data
(more than 32 ACL entries), the MDT will forbid the old client
to access the file with large ACL data. As for how to know
whether it is old client or new, a new connection flag
OBD_CONNECT_LARGE_ACL is used for that.

Commit 184add2ca23c ("libata: Apply NOLPM quirk for SanDisk
SD7UB3Q*G1001 SSDs") disabled LPM for SanDisk SD7UB3Q*G1001 SSDs.
This has lead to several reports of users of that SSD where LPM
was working fine and who know have a significantly increased idle
power consumption on their laptops.
Likely there is another problem on the T450s from the original
reporter which gets exposed by the uncore reaching deeper sleep
states (higher PC-states) due to LPM being enabled. The problem as
reported, a hardfreeze about once a day, already did not sound like
it would be caused by LPM and the reports of the SSD working fine
confirm this. The original reporter is ok with dropping the quirk.
A X250 user has reported the same hard freeze problem and for him
the problem went away after unrelated updates, I suspect some GPU
driver stack changes fixed things.
TL;DR: The original reporters problem were triggered by LPM but not
an LPM issue, so drop the quirk for the SSD in question.

BFQ can deem a bfq_queue as soft real-time only if the queue
- periodically becomes completely idle, i.e., empty and with
no still-outstanding I/O request;
- after becoming idle, gets new I/O only after a special reference
time soft_rt_next_start.
In this respect, after commit "block, bfq: consider also past I/O in
soft real-time detection", the value of soft_rt_next_start can never
decrease. This causes a problem with the following special updating
case for soft_rt_next_start: to prevent queues that are not completely
idle to be wrongly detected as soft real-time (when they become
non-empty again), soft_rt_next_start is temporarily set to infinity
for empty queues with still outstanding I/O requests. But, if such an
update is actually performed, then, because of the above commit,
soft_rt_next_start will be stuck at infinity forever, and the queue
will have no more chance to be considered soft real-time.
On slow systems, this problem does cause actual soft real-time
applications to be occasionally not detected as such.
This commit addresses this issue by eliminating the pushing of
soft_rt_next_start to infinity, and by changing the way non-empty
queues are prevented from being wrongly detected as soft
real-time. Simply, a queue that becomes non-empty again can now be
detected as soft real-time only if it has no outstanding I/O request.

The maximum possible duration of the weight-raising period for
interactive applications is limited to 13 seconds, as this is the time
needed to load the largest application that we considered when tuning
weight raising. Unfortunately, in such an evaluation, we did not
consider the case of very slow virtual machines.
For example, on a QEMU/KVM virtual machine
- running in a slow PC;
- with a virtual disk stacked on a slow low-end 5400rpm HDD;
- serving a heavy I/O workload, such as the sequential reading of
several files;
mplayer takes 23 seconds to start, if constantly weight-raised.
To address this issue, this commit conservatively sets the upper limit
for weight-raising duration to 25 seconds.

BFQ computes the duration of weight raising for interactive
applications automatically, using some reference parameters. In
particular, BFQ uses the best durations (see comments in the code for
how these durations have been assessed) for two classes of systems:
slow and fast ones. Examples of slow systems are old phones or systems
using micro HDDs. Fast systems are all the remaining ones. Using these
parameters, BFQ computes the actual duration of the weight raising,
for the system at hand, as a function of the relative speed of the
system w.r.t. the speed of a reference system, belonging to the same
class of systems as the system at hand.
This slow vs fast differentiation proved to be useful in the past, but
happens to have little meaning with current hardware. Even worse, it
does cause problems in virtual systems, where the speed of the system
can vary frequently, and so widely to just confuse the class-detection
mechanism, and, as we have verified experimentally, to cause BFQ to
compute non-sensical weight-raising durations.
This commit addresses this issue by removing the slow class and the
class-detection mechanism.

A description of how weight raising works is missing in BFQ
sources. In addition, the code for handling weight raising is
scattered across a few functions. This makes it rather hard to
understand the mechanism and its rationale. This commits adds such a
description at the beginning of the main source file.
