The function ptep_set_access_flags is only ever used to upgrade
access permissions to a page. That means the only negative side
effect of not flushing remote TLBs is that other CPUs may incur
spurious page faults, if they happen to access the same address,
and still have a PTE with the old permissions cached in their
TLB.
Having another CPU maybe incur a spurious page fault is faster
than always incurring the cost of a remote TLB flush, so replace
the remote TLB flush with a purely local one.
This should be safe on every architecture that correctly
implements flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault() to actually invalidate
the local TLB entry that caused a page fault, as well as on
architectures where the hardware invalidates TLB entries that
cause page faults.
In the unlikely event that you are hitting what appears to be
an infinite loop of page faults, and 'git bisect' took you to
this changeset, your architecture needs to implement
flush_tlb_fix_spurious_fault to actually flush the TLB entry.

Intel has an architectural guarantee that the TLB entry causing
a page fault gets invalidated automatically. This means
we should be able to drop the local TLB invalidation.
Because of the way other areas of the page fault code work,
chances are good that all x86 CPUs do this. However, if
someone somewhere has an x86 CPU that does not invalidate
the TLB entry causing a page fault, this one-liner should
be easy to revert.

The function ptep_set_access_flags() is only ever invoked to set access
flags or add write permission on a PTE. The write bit is only ever set
together with the dirty bit.
Because we only ever upgrade a PTE, it is safe to skip flushing entries on
remote TLBs. The worst that can happen is a spurious page fault on other
CPUs, which would flush that TLB entry.
Lazily letting another CPU incur a spurious page fault occasionally is
(much!) cheaper than aggressively flushing everybody else's TLB.

Jian reported that the following sequence would leave "testfile" with
corrupt data:
# mount localhost:/export /mnt/nfs/ -o vers=3
# echo abc > /mnt/nfs/testfile; echo def >> /export/testfile; echo ghi >> /mnt/nfs/testfile
# cat -v /export/testfile
abc
^@^@^@^@ghi
While there's no locking involved here, the operations are serialized,
so CTO should prevent corruption.
The first write to the file is fine and writes 4 bytes. The file is then
extended on the server. When it's reopened a GETATTR is issued and the
size change is noticed. This causes NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA to be set on
the file. Because the file is opened for write only,
nfs_want_read_modify_write() returns 0 to nfs_write_begin().
nfs_updatepage then calls nfs_write_pageuptodate() to see if it should
extend the nfs_page to cover the whole page. NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA is
still set on the file at that point, but that flag is ignored and
nfs_pageuptodate erroneously extends the write to cover the whole page,
with the write done on the server side filled in with zeroes.
This patch just has that function check for NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA in
addition to NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE. This fixes the bug, but looking
over the code, I wonder if we might have a similar bug in
nfs_revalidate_size(). The difference between those two flags is very
subtle, so it seems like we ought to be checking for
NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA in most of the places that we look for
NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE.
I believe this is regression introduced by commit 8d197a568. The code
did check for NFS_INO_INVALID_DATA prior to that patch.

Commit 1f1ea6c "NFSv4: Fix buffer overflow checking in
__nfs4_get_acl_uncached" accidently dropped the checking for too small
result buffer length.
If someone uses getxattr on "system.nfs4_acl" on an NFSv4 mount
supporting ACLs, the ACL has not been cached and the buffer suplied is
too short, we still copy the complete ACL, resulting in kernel and user
space memory corruption.

For each detected qdio device a line like to following is printed:
qdio: 0.0.4102 OSA on SC 1045 using AI:1 QEBSM:0 PCI:1 TDD:1 SIGA: W AP
The PCI flag is misleading as this stands for "program controlled interrupt".
Rename it to PRI "program requested interrupt" which is more accurate and
does not interfere with another popular piece of technology.
Leave the pci string in the code since changing that would result in a huge
patch.

The commit [23670b322: drm/i915: CPT+ pch transcoder workaround]
caused a regression on some HP laptops with IvyBridge. The whole
laptop screen is shifted downward for a few pixels constantly.
The problem appears only on LVDS while DP and VGA seem unaffected.
Also, the problem disappears once when go and back from S3.
(S4 resume still shows the same problem.)
This patch revives the minimum part the commit above dropped.
For fixing this regression, only the setup of CHICKEN2 bit in
cpt_init_clock_gating() is needed.

The nodelists field in kmem_cache is pointing to the first unused
object in the array field when bootstrap is complete.
A problem with the current approach is that the statically sized
kmem_cache structure use on boot can only contain NR_CPUS entries.
If the number of nodes plus the number of cpus is greater then we
would overwrite memory following the kmem_cache_boot definition.
Increase the size of the array field to ensure that also the node
pointers fit into the array field.
Once we do that we no longer need the kmem_cache_nodelists
array and we can then also use that structure elsewhere.

Not all architectures (in particular, sparc64) have empty_zero_page.
So instead of copying from empty_zero_page, use memset to clear the
inline data by signalling to ext4_xattr_set_entry() via a magic
pointer value, EXT4_ZERO_ATTR_VALUE, which is defined by casting -1 to
a pointer.
This fixes a build failure on sparc64, and the memset() should be more
efficient than using memcpy() anyway.

This commit changes the CMA early initialization code to use phys_addr_t
for representing physical addresses instead of unsigned long.
Without this change, among other things, dma_declare_contiguous() simply
discards any memory regions whose address is not representable as unsigned
long.
This is a problem on 32-bit PAE machines where unsigned long is 32-bit
but physical address space is larger.

dmapool always calls dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_ATOMIC flag,
regardless the flags provided by the caller. This causes excessive
pruning of emergency memory pools without any good reason. Additionaly,
on ARM architecture any driver which is using dmapools will sooner or
later trigger the following error:
"ERROR: 256 KiB atomic DMA coherent pool is too small!
Please increase it with coherent_pool= kernel parameter!".
Increasing the coherent pool size usually doesn't help much and only
delays such error, because all GFP_ATOMIC DMA allocations are always
served from the special, very limited memory pool.
This patch changes the dmapool code to correctly use gfp flags provided
by the dmapool caller.

Some gate clocks have special needs which must be handled during the
disable-unused clocks sequence. These needs might be driven by software
due to the fact that we're disabling a clock outside of the normal
clk_disable path and a clk's enable_count will not be accurate. On the
other hand a specific hardware programming sequence might need to be
followed for this corner case.
This change is needed for the upcoming OMAP port to the common clock
framework. Specifically, it is undesirable to treat the disable-unused
path identically to the normal clk_disable path since other software
layers are involved. In this case OMAP's clockdomain code throws WARNs
and bails early due to the clock's enable_count being set to zero. A
custom callback mitigates this problem nicely.

When we remove a device from an md array, the final removal of
the "dev-XX" sys entry is run asynchronously.
If we then re-add that device immediately before the worker thread
gets to run, we can end up trying to add the "dev-XX" sysfs entry back
before it has been removed.
So in both places where we add a device, call
flush_workqueue(md_misc_wq);
before taking the md lock (as holding the md lock can prevent removal
to complete).

The kernel can only be entered on HYP mode on CPUs which actually
support it, i.e. >= ARMv7. pre-v6 platform support cannot coexist
in the same kernel as support for v7 and higher, so there is no
advantage in having the HYP mode check on pre-v6 hardware.
At least one pre-v6 board is known to fail when the HYP mode check
code is present, although the exact cause remains unknown and may
be unrelated. [1]
This patch restores the old behaviour for pre-v6 platforms, whereby
the CPSR is forced directly to SVC mode with IRQs and FIQs masked.
All kernels capable of booting on v7 hardware will retain the
check, so this should not impair functionality.

syscall_trace_exit is currently doing things back-to-front; invoking
the audit hook *after* signalling the debugger, which presents an
opportunity for the registers to be re-written by userspace in order to
bypass auditing constaints.
This patch fixes the ordering by moving the audit code first and the
tracehook code last. On the face of it, it looks like
current_thread_info()->syscall may be incorrect for the sys_exit
tracepoint, but that's actually not an issue because it will have been
set during syscall entry and cannot have changed since then.
