Bug occurs because __tcp_checksum_complete_user() enables BH, assuming
it is running from softirq context.
Lars trace involved a NIC without RX checksum support but other points
are problematic as well, like the prequeue stuff.
Problem is triggered by a timer, that found socket being owned by user.
tcp_release_cb() should call tcp_write_timer_handler() or
tcp_delack_timer_handler() in the appropriate context :
BH disabled and socket lock held, but 'owned' field cleared,
as if they were running from timer handlers.
Fixes: 6f458dfb4092 ("tcp: improve latencies of timer triggered events")

====================
skbuff: fix skb_segment with zero copy skbs
This fixes a bug in skb_segment where it moves frags
between skbs without orphaning them.
This causes userspace to assume it's safe to
reuse the buffer, and receiver gets corrupted data.
This further might leak information from the
transmitter on the wire.
To fix track which skb does a copied frag belong
to, and orphan frags when copying them.
As we are tracking multiple skbs here, using
short names (skb,nskb,fskb,skb_frag,frag) becomes confusing.
So before adding another one, I refactor these names
slightly.
Patch is split out to make it easier to
verify that all trasformations are trivially correct.
The problem was observed in the field,
so I think that the patch is necessary on stable
as well.

skb_segment copies frags around, so we need
to copy them carefully to avoid accessing
user memory after reporting completion to userspace
through a callback.
skb_segment doesn't normally happen on datapath:
TSO needs to be disabled - so disabling zero copy
in this case does not look like a big deal.

Before commit b355cee88e3b (ACPI / resources: ignore invalid ACPI
device resources), if acpi_dev_resource_memory()/acpi_dev_resource_io()
returns false, it means the the resource is not a memeory/IO resource.
But after commit b355cee88e3b, those functions return false if the
given memory/IO resource entry is invalid (the length of the resource
is zero).
This breaks pnpacpi_allocated_resource(), because it now recognizes
the invalid memory/io resources as resources of unknown type. Thus
users see confusing warning messages on machines with zero length
ACPI memory/IO resources.
Fix the problem by rearranging pnpacpi_allocated_resource() so that
it calls acpi_dev_resource_memory() for memory type and IO type
resources only, respectively.

====================
stmmac fixes: EEE and chained mode
These patches are to fix some new problems in the STMMAC driver.
Mandatory changes are for EEE that needs to be disabled if not supported
and for the chain mode that is broken and the kernel panics if this mode
is enabled.
v3: removed a patch from my previous set that touched the stmmac_tx path
that has not to be applied. Other patches for cleaning-up will be
sent on top of net-next git repo.
v4: do not surround the defaul buffer selection using Koption and adopt
a default to 1536bytes.

vmxnet3's netpoll driver is incorrectly coded. It directly calls
vmxnet3_do_poll, which is the driver internal napi poll routine. As the netpoll
controller method doesn't block real napi polls in any way, there is a potential
for race conditions in which the netpoll controller method and the napi poll
method run concurrently. The result is data corruption causing panics such as this
one recently observed:

On the newly introduced sama5d36, Gigabit and 10/100 Ethernet network
interfaces are probed in a different order than for the sama5d35.
Moreover, users are accustomed to this order in bootloaders and backports
for older kernel revisions.
So this patch switches DT node order as it is done for the other dual-Ethernet
sama5d3 SoC.
Better interface numbering which does not depend on DT node order is being
developed for stronger interface identification.

For non-eager fpu mode, thread's fpu state is allocated during the first
fpu usage (in the context of device not available exception). This
(math_state_restore()) can be a blocking call and hence we enable
interrupts (which were originally disabled when the exception happened),
allocate memory and disable interrupts etc.
But the eager-fpu mode, call's the same math_state_restore() from
kernel_fpu_end(). The assumption being that tsk_used_math() is always
set for the eager-fpu mode and thus avoid the code path of enabling
interrupts, allocating fpu state using blocking call and disable
interrupts etc.
But the below issue was noticed by Maarten Baert, Nate Eldredge and
few others:
If a user process dumps core on an ecrypt fs while aesni-intel is loaded,
we get a BUG() in __find_get_block() complaining that it was called with
interrupts disabled; then all further accesses to our ecrypt fs hang
and we have to reboot.
The aesni-intel code (encrypting the core file that we are writing) needs
the FPU and quite properly wraps its code in kernel_fpu_{begin,end}(),
the latter of which calls math_state_restore(). So after kernel_fpu_end(),
interrupts may be disabled, which nobody seems to expect, and they stay
that way until we eventually get to __find_get_block() which barfs.
For eager fpu, most the time, tsk_used_math() is true. At few instances
during thread exit, signal return handling etc, tsk_used_math() might
be false.
In kernel_fpu_end(), for eager-fpu, call math_state_restore()
only if tsk_used_math() is set. Otherwise, don't bother. Kernel code
path which cleared tsk_used_math() knows what needs to be done
with the fpu state.

This was an optimization that made memcpy type benchmarks a little
faster on ancient (Circa 1998) IDT Winchip CPUs. In real-life

Given this code has likely seen very little use over the last decade,

When running workloads that have high contention in mutexes on an 8 socket
machine, mutex spinners would often spin for a long time with no lock owner.
The main reason why this is occuring is in __mutex_unlock_common_slowpath(),
if __mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock(), then the owner needs to acquire the
mutex->wait_lock before releasing the mutex (setting lock->count to 1). When
the wait_lock is contended, this delays the mutex from being released.
We should be able to release the mutex without holding the wait_lock.

The mutex->spin_mlock was introduced in order to ensure that only 1 thread
spins for lock acquisition at a time to reduce cache line contention. When
lock->owner is NULL and the lock->count is still not 1, the spinner(s) will
continually release and obtain the lock->spin_mlock. This can generate
quite a bit of overhead/contention, and also might just delay the spinner
from getting the lock.
This patch modifies the way optimistic spinners are queued by queuing before
entering the optimistic spinning loop as oppose to acquiring before every
call to mutex_spin_on_owner(). So in situations where the spinner requires
a few extra spins before obtaining the lock, then there will only be 1 spinner
trying to get the lock and it will avoid the overhead from unnecessarily
unlocking and locking the spin_mlock.

The mcs_spinlock code is not meant (or suitable) as a generic locking

Check for fair tasks number to decide, that we've pulled a task.

1) Single cpu machine case.
When rq has only RT tasks, but no one of them can be picked
because of throttling, we enter in endless loop.
pick_next_task_{dl,rt} return NULL.
In pick_next_task_fair() we permanently go to retry
if (rq->nr_running != rq->cfs.h_nr_running)
return RETRY_TASK;
(rq->nr_running is not being decremented when rt_rq becomes
throttled).
No chances to unthrottle any rt_rq or to wake fair here,
because of rq is locked permanently and interrupts are
disabled.
2) In case of SMP this can cause a hang too. Although we unlock
rq in idle_balance(), interrupts are still disabled.
The solution is to check for available tasks in DL and RT
classes instead of checking for sum.

The problems:
1) We check for rt_nr_running before call of put_prev_task().
If previous task is RT, its rt_rq may become throttled
and dequeued after this call.
In case of p is from rt->rq this just causes picking a task
from throttled queue, but in case of its rt_rq is child
we are guaranteed catch BUG_ON.
2) The same with deadline class. The only difference we operate
on only dl_rq.
This patch fixes all the above problems and it adds a small skip in the
DL update like we've already done for RT class:
if (unlikely((s64)delta_exec <= 0))
return;
This will optimize sequential update_curr_dl() calls a little.

apic_icr_write() and its users in smpboot.c were apparently
written under the assumption that this code would only run
during early boot. But nowadays we also execute it when onlining
a CPU later on while the system is fully running. That will make
wakeup_cpu_via_init_nmi and, thus, also native_apic_icr_write
run in plain process context. If we migrate the caller to a
different CPU at the wrong time or interrupt it and write to
ICR/ICR2 to send unrelated IPIs, we can end up sending INIT,
SIPI or NMIs to wrong CPUs.
Fix this by disabling interrupts during the write to the ICR
halves and disable preemption around waiting for ICR
availability and using it.

Commit 028a690a1ebc8b "i386: Remove unneeded test of 'task' in
dump_trace()" correctly removed the unneeded 'task != NULL'
check because it would be set to current if it was NULL.
Commit 2bc5f927d489 "i386: split out dumpstack code from
traps_32.c" moved the code from traps_32.c to its own file
dump_stack.c for preparation of the i386 / x86_64 merge.
Commit 8a541665b906 "dumpstack: x86: various small unification
steps" worked to make i386 and x86_64 dump_stack logic similar.
But this actually reverted the correct change from
028a690a1ebc8b.
Commit d0caf292505d "x86/dumpstack: Remove unneeded check in
dump_trace()" removed the unneeded "task != NULL" check for
x86_64 but left that same unneeded check for i386, that was
added because x86_64 had it!
This chain of events ironically had i386 add back the unneeded
task != NULL check because x86_64 did it, and then the fix for
x86_64 was fixed by Dan. And even more ironically, it was Dan's
smatch bot that told me that a change to dump_stack_32 I made
may be wrong if current can be NULL (it can't), as there was a
check for it by assigning task to current, and then checking if
task is NULL.

The error path of uncore_type_init() frees up any allocations
that were made along the way, but it relies upon type->pmus
being set, which only happens if the function succeeds. As
type->pmus remains null in this case, the call to
uncore_type_exit will do nothing.
Moving the assignment earlier will allow us to actually free
those allocations should something go awry.

Commit:
411cf180fa00 perf/x86/uncore: fix initialization of cpumask
introduced the function uncore_cpumask_init(), which is only
called in __init intel_uncore_init(). But it is not marked
with __init, which produces the following warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x2464a): Section mismatch in reference from the function uncore_cpumask_init() to the function .init.text:uncore_cpu_setup()
The function uncore_cpumask_init() references
the function __init uncore_cpu_setup().
This is often because uncore_cpumask_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of uncore_cpu_setup is wrong.
This patch marks uncore_cpumask_init() with __init.

Prevent tracing of preempt_disable/enable() in sched_clock_cpu().
When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, preempt_disable/enable() are
traced and this causes trace_clock() users (and probably others) to
go into an infinite recursion. Systems with a stable sched_clock()
are not affected.
This problem is similar to that fixed by upstream commit 95ef1e52922
("KVM guest: prevent tracing recursion with kvmclock").

ASoC: Fixes for v3.14
A few things here:
- Avoid memory leaks in error cases with DPCM, this code has never been
that well tested in mainline due to the lack of mainline drivers but
we now have one queued for the merge window!
- Fix the N810 audio driver to load when booted with DT since the
platform was converted to DT during the merge window.
- Fixes for initialisation of some MFD drivers that are probably unused
in mainline

With TX VLAN offload enabled the source MAC address for frames sent using the
VLAN interface is currently set to the address of the real interface. This is
wrong since the VLAN interface may be configured with a different address.
The bug was introduced in commit 2205369a314e12fcec4781cc73ac9c08fc2b47de
("vlan: Fix header ops passthru when doing TX VLAN offload.").
This patch sets the source address before calling the create function of the
real interface.

Current netback uses gso_type to check whether the skb contains
gso offload, and this is wrong. Gso_size is the right one to
check gso existence, and gso_type is only used to check gso type.
Some skbs contains nonzero gso_type and zero gso_size, current
netback would treat these skbs as gso and create wrong response
for this. This also causes ssh failure to domu from other server.
