Fix regression in bbc i2c temperature and fan control on some Sun systems
that causes the driver to refuse to load due to the bbc_i2c_bussel resource not
being present on the (second) i2c bus where the temperature sensors and fan
control are located. (The check for the number of resources was removed when
the driver was ported to a pure OF driver in mid 2008.)

The assumption was that update_mmu_cache() (and the equivalent for PMDs) would
only be called when the PTE being installed will be accessible by the user.
This is not true for code paths originating from remove_migration_pte().
There are dire consequences for placing a non-valid PTE into the TSB. The TLB
miss frramework assumes thatwhen a TSB entry matches we can just load it into
the TLB and return from the TLB miss trap.
So if a non-valid PTE is in there, we will deadlock taking the TLB miss over
and over, never satisfying the miss.
Just exit early from update_mmu_cache() and friends in this situation.
Based upon a report and patch from Christopher Alexander Tobias Schulze.

git://git.linaro.org/people/benjamin.gaignard/kernel into drm-next
This series of patches add the support of DRM/KMS drivers for STMicroelectronics
chipsets stih416 and stih407.
Hardware is split in two main blocks: Compositor and TVout. Each of them
includes specific hardware IPs and the display timing are controlled by a specific
Video Timing Generator hardware IP (VTG).
Compositor is made of the follow hardware IPs:
- GDP (Generic Display Pipeline) which is an entry point for graphic (RGB)
buffers
- VDP (Video Diplay Pipeline) which is an entry point for video (YUV) buffers
- HQVDP (High Quality Video Display Processor) that supports scaling,
deinterlacing and some miscellaneous image quality improvements.
It fetches the Video decoded buffers from memory, processes them and pushes
them to the Compositor through a HW dedicated bus.
- Mixer is responsible of mixing all the entries depending of their
respective z-order and layout
TVout is divided in 3 parts:
- HDMI to generate HDMI signals, depending of chipset version HDMI phy can
change.
- HDA to generate signals for HD analog TV
- VIP to control/switch data path coming from Compositor
On stih416 compositor and Tvout are on different dies so a Video Trafic Advance
inter-die Communication mechanism (VTAC) is needed.

In addition of the drivers for the IPs listed before a thin I2C driver (hdmiddc) is used
by HDMI driver to retrieve EDID for monitor.
To unify interfaces of GDP and VDP we create a "layer" interface called by
compositor to control both GPD and VDP.
Hardware have memory contraints (alignment, contiguous) so we use CMA drm helpers functions
to allocate frame buffer.
File naming convention is:
- sti_* for IPs drivers
- sti_drm_* for drm functions implementation.

Building a 32-bit kernel with CONFIG_X86_USE_3DNOW and CONFIG_EFI_STUB
leads to the following build error,
drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/lib.a(efi-stub-helper.o): In function `efi_relocate_kernel':
efi-stub-helper.c:(.text+0xda5): undefined reference to `_mmx_memcpy'
This is due to the fact that the EFI boot stub pulls in the 3DNow
optimized versions of the memcpy() prototype from
arch/x86/include/asm/string_32.h, even though the _mmx_memcpy()
implementation isn't available in the EFI stub.
For now, predicate CONFIG_EFI_STUB on !CONFIG_X86_USE_3DNOW. This is
most definitely a temporary fix. A complete solution will involve
selectively including kernel headers/symbols into the early-boot
execution environment of the EFI boot stub, i.e. something analogous to
the way that the _SETUP symbol is used.
Previous attempts have been made to fix this kind of problem, though
none seem to have ever been merged,
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20120329104822.GA17233@x1.osrc.amd.com
Clearly, this problem has been around for a long time.

If we goto out_nocoalesce after we free new_nodes[0], we end up freeing
new_nodes[0] again. This was generating a lockdep warning. The fix is
to set new_nodes[0] to NULL, since the out_nocoalesce path safely
ignores NULL entries in the new_nodes array.
This regression was introduced in 2d7f9531.

Intel did some benchmarking on our network throughput when Linux on Hyper-V
is as used as a gateway. This fix gave us almost a 1 Gbps additional throughput
on about 5Gbps base throughput we hadi, prior to increasing the sendbuf size.
The sendbuf mechanism is a copy based transport that we have which is clearly
more optimal than the copy-free page flipping mechanism (for small packets).
In the forwarding scenario, we deal only with MTU sized packets,
and increasing the size of the senbuf area gave us the additional performance.
For what it is worth, Windows guests on Hyper-V, I am told use similar sendbuf
size as well.
The exact value of sendbuf I think is less important than the fact that it needs
to be larger than what Linux can allocate as physically contiguous memory.
Thus the change over to allocating via vmalloc().
We currently allocate 16MB receive buffer and we use vmalloc there for allocation.
Also the low level channel code has already been modified to deal with physically
dis-contiguous memory in the ringbuffer setup.
Based on experimentation Intel did, they say there was some improvement in throughput
as the sendbuf size was increased up to 16MB and there was no effect on throughput
beyond 16MB. Thus I have chosen 16MB here.
Increasing the sendbuf value makes a material difference in small packet handling
In this version of the patch, based on David's feedback, I have added
additional details in the commit log.

When inode is evicted, all the page cache belong to this inode should be
released including the xattr node page. But previously we didn't do this, this

code logic. The comment is unfinished so it confuses more
than it explains, remove it.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"Once again, Catalin's off on holiday and I'm looking after the arm64
tree. Please can you pull the following arm64 updates for 3.17?
Note that this branch also includes the new GICv3 driver (merged via a
stable tag from Jason's irqchip tree), since there is a fix for older
binutils on top.
Changes include:
- context tracking support (NO_HZ_FULL) which narrowly missed 3.16
- vDSO layout rework following Andy's work on x86
- TEXT_OFFSET fuzzing for bootloader testing
- /proc/cpuinfo tidy-up
- preliminary work to support 48-bit virtual addresses, but this is
currently disabled until KVM has been ported to use it (the patches
do, however, bring some nice clean-up)
- boot-time CPU sanity checks (especially useful on heterogenous
systems)
- support for syscall auditing
- support for CC_STACKPROTECTOR
- defconfig updates"
