This patch adds on the fixes done in commits 89dd86db78e0 ("mlx4_core:
Allow large mlx4_buddy bitmaps") and 3de819e6b642 ("mlx4_core: Fix
integer overflow issues around MTT table") so that memory registration
of up to 8TB (log_num_mtt=31) finally works.
It fixes integer overflows in a few mlx4_table_yyy routines in icm.c
by using a u64 intermediate variable, and int/uint issues that caused
table indexes to become nagive by setting some variables to be u32
instead of int. These problems cause crashes when a user attempted to
register > 512GB of RAM.

Commit 0090def("ACPI: Add interface to register/unregister device
to/from power resources") used resource_lock to protect the devices list
that relies on power resource. It caused a mutex dead lock, as below
acpi_power_on ---> lock resource_lock
__acpi_power_on
acpi_power_on_device
acpi_power_get_inferred_state
acpi_power_get_list_state ---> lock resource_lock
This patch adds a new mutex "devices_lock" to protect the devices list
and calls acpi_power_on_device in acpi_power_on, instead of
__acpi_power_on, after the resource_lock is released.

It turns out that there are ACPI BIOSes defining device objects with
_PSx and without either _PSC or _PRx. For devices corresponding to
those ACPI objetcs __acpi_bus_get_power() returns ACPI_STATE_UNKNOWN
and their initial power states are regarded as unknown as a result.
If such a device is a parent of another power-manageable device, the
child cannot be put into a low-power state through ACPI, because
__acpi_bus_set_power() refuses to change power states of devices
whose parents' power states are unknown.
To work around this problem, observe that the ACPI power state of
a device cannot be higher-power (lower-number) than the power state
of its parent. Thus, if the device's _PSC method or the
configuration of its power resources indicates that the device is
in D0, the device's parent has to be in D0 as well. Consequently,
if the parent's power state is unknown when we've just learned that
its child's power state is D0, we can safely set the parent's
power.state field to ACPI_STATE_D0.

Study of Apple's binary driver revealed that the GMUX_READ_PORT should
be written between calls to gmux_index_wait_ready and
gmux_index_wait_complete (i.e., the new index protocol must be
followed). If this is not done correctly, the indexed
gmux device only partially accepts writes which lead to problems
concerning GPU switching. Special thanks to Seth Forshee who helped
greatly with identifying unnecessary changes.

Commit a334872224a67b614dc888460377862621f3dac7 added afex support but lacked
several logical changes. This lack can cause afex to crash, and also
have a slight effect on other flows (i.e., driver always assumes the Tx ring

Only increase the higher 32bits if we really detect a wrap around.
v2: instead of increasing the higher 32bits just use the higher
32bits from the last emitted fence.
v3: also use last emitted fence value as upper limit.
The intention of this patch is to make fences as robust as
they where before introducing 64bit fences. This is
necessary because on older systems it looks like the fence
value gets corrupted on initialization.

This fixes a hang on suspend due to calling wdm_suspend on
the unregistered data interface. The hang should have been
a NULL pointer reference had it not been for a logic error
in the cdc_wdm code.
commit 230718bd net: qmi_wwan: bind to both control and data interface
changed qmi_wwan to use cdc_wdm as a subdriver for devices with
a two-interface QMI/wwan function. The commit failed to update
qmi_wwan_suspend and qmi_wwan_resume, which were written to handle
either a single combined interface function, or no subdriver at all.
The result was that we called into the subdriver both when the
control interface was suspended and when the data interface was
suspended. Calling the subdriver suspend function with an
unregistered interface is not supported and will make the
subdriver bug out.

gred_dequeue() and gred_drop() do not seem to get called when the
queue is empty, meaning that we never start idling while in WRED
mode. And since qidlestart is not stored by gred_store_wred_set(),
we would never stop idling while in WRED mode if we ever started.
This messes up the average queue size calculation that influences
packet marking/dropping behavior.
Now, we start WRED mode idling as we are removing the last packet
from the queue. Also we now actually stop WRED mode idling when we
are enqueuing a packet.

q->vars.qavg is a Wlog scaled value, but q->backlog is not. In order
to pass q->vars.qavg as the backlog value, we need to un-scale it.
Additionally, the qave value returned via netlink should not be Wlog
scaled, so we need to un-scale the result of red_calc_qavg().
This caused artificially high values for "Average Queue" to be shown
by 'tc -s -d qdisc', but did not affect the actual operation of GRED.

UNINLINE_SPIN_UNLOCK, as this was the only one in that block not

Avoid putting values not selected into the resulting .config -
they are not useful for anything, make the output less legible,

The main goal here is to have the resulting .config no carry any
options that aren't enabled and can't be (i.e such where the
default is "no" and can't be changed), so that if any such
option later gets a user visible prompt, the user will actually
be prompted on a "make ...oldconfig" rather than keeping the
previously invisible option disabled.
There's a little bit of other trivial cleanup mixed in here.

Following a relatively recent compiler change, make use of the
fact that for non-zero input BSF and TZCNT produce the same
result, and that CPUs not knowing of TZCNT will treat the
instruction as BSF (i.e. ignore what looks like a REP prefix to
them). The assumption here is that TZCNT would never have worse
performance than BSF.
For the moment, only do this when the respective generic-CPU
option is selected (as there are no specific-CPU options
covering the CPUs supporting TZCNT), and don't do that when size
optimization was requested.

The 64-bit special cases of the former two (the thrird one is
64-bit only anyway) don't need to use "long" temporaries, as the
result will always fit in a 32-bit variable, and the functions
return plain "int". This avoids a few REX prefixes, i.e.
minimally reduces code size.

Daniel Lezcano reported seeing multi-second stalls from
keyboard input on his T61 laptop when NOHZ and CPU_IDLE
were enabled on a 32bit kernel.
He bisected the problem down to commit
1e75fa8be9fb6 ("time: Condense timekeeper.xtime into xtime_sec").
After reproducing this issue, I narrowed the problem down
to the fact that timekeeping_get_ns() returns a 64bit
nsec value that hasn't been accumulated. In some cases
this value was being then stored in timespec.tv_nsec
(which is a long).
On 32bit systems, with idle times larger then 4 seconds
(or less, depending on the value of xtime_nsec), the
returned nsec value would overflow 32bits. This limited
kept time from increasing, causing timers to not expire.
The fix is to make sure we don't directly store the
result of timekeeping_get_ns() into a tv_nsec field,
instead using a 64bit nsec value which can then be
added into the timespec via timespec_add_ns().

On 64 bit x86 we save the current eflags in cpu_init for use in
ret_from_fork. Strictly speaking reserved bits in EFLAGS should
be read as written but in practise it is unlikely that EFLAGS
could ever be extended in this way and the kernel alread clears
any undefined flags early on.
The equivalent 32 bit code simply hard codes 0x0202 as the new
EFLAGS.
This change makes 64 bit use the same mechanism to setup the
initial EFLAGS on fork. Note that 64 bit resets EFLAGS before
calling schedule_tail() as opposed to 32 bit which calls
schedule_tail() first. Therefore the correct value for EFLAGS
has opposite IF bit.

Commit f319da0c68 ("sched: Fix load avg vs cpu-hotplug") was an
incomplete fix:
In particular, the problem is that at the point it calls
calc_load_migrate() nr_running := 1 (the stopper thread), so move the
call to CPU_DEAD where we're sure that nr_running := 0.
Also note that we can call calc_load_migrate() without serialization, we
know the state of rq is stable since its cpu is dead, and we modify the
global state using appropriate atomic ops.

Now that the last architecture to use this has stopped doing so (ARM,
thanks Catalin!) we can remove this complexity from the scheduler
core.

On tickless systems, one CPU runs load balance for all idle CPUs.
The cpu_load of this CPU is updated before starting the load balance
of each other idle CPUs. We should instead update the cpu_load of
the balance_cpu.

ptrace_notify() and get_signal_to_deliver() do unnecessary things
before task_work_run():
1. smp_mb__after_clear_bit() is not needed, test_and_clear_bit()
implies mb().
2. And we do not need the barrier at all, in this case we only
care about the "synchronous" works added by the task itself.
3. No need to clear TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME, and we should not assume
task_works is the only user of this flag.

This reverts commit d35abdb28824cf74f0a106a0f9c6f3ff700a35bf.
task_lock() was added to ensure exit_mm() and thus exit_task_work() is
not possible before task_work_add().
This is wrong, task_lock() must not be nested with write_lock(tasklist).
And this is no longer needed, task_work_add() now fails if it is called
after exit_task_work().

ed3e694d "move exit_task_work() past exit_files() et.al" destroyed
the add/exit synchronization we had, the caller itself should ensure
task_work_add() can't race with the exiting task.
However, this is not convenient/simple, and the only user which tries
to do this is buggy (see the next patch). Unless the task is current,
there is simply no way to do this in general.
Change exit_task_work()->task_work_run() to use the dummy "work_exited"
entry to let task_work_add() know it should fail.

Change task_work's to use llist-like code to avoid pi_lock
in task_work_add(), this makes it useable under rq->lock.
task_work_cancel() and task_work_run() still use pi_lock
to synchronize with each other.
(This is in preparation for a deadlock fix.)
