Drop static on a local variable, when the variable is initialized before
any use, on every possible execution path through the function. The static
has no benefit, and dropping it reduces the code size.
The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>
@bad exists@
position p;
identifier x;
type T;
@@
static T x@p;
...
x = <+...x...+>
@@
identifier x;
expression e;
type T;
position p != bad.p;
@@
-static
T x@p;
... when != x
when strict
?x = e;
// </smpl>
The change in code size is indicates by the following output from the size
command.

It is possible that under heavy system load, the counter in the completion
struct, used for waiting for end of AD conversion, gets incremented twice.
To make sure the driver recovers from this situation, the completion struct
should be reinitialized.

Saying it "returns the result" seems tautological. The read function
does not return num_bytes on success, it returns zero on success. I
noticed this discrepancy because some of the callers were checking for
>= 0.

Some servers seem to accept connections while booting but never send
the SMBNegotiate response neither close the connection, causing all
processes accessing the share hang on uninterruptible sleep state.
This happens when the cifs_demultiplex_thread detects the server is
unresponsive so releases the socket and start trying to reconnect.
At some point, the faulty server will accept the socket and the TCP
status will be set to NeedNegotiate. The first issued command accessing
the share will start the negotiation (pid 5828 below), but the response
will never arrive so other commands will be blocked waiting on the mutex
(pid 55352).
This patch checks for unresponsive servers also on the negotiate stage
releasing the socket and reconnecting if the response is not received
and checking again the tcp state when the mutex is acquired.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
Netfilter updates for next-net (part 2)
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next. This
patchset includes updates for nf_tables, removal of
CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG and a new mode for xt_hashlimit. More
specifically, they:
1) Add new rate match mode for hashlimit, this introduces a new revision
for this match. The idea is to stop matching packets until ratelimit
criteria stands true. Patch from Vishwanath Pai.
2) Add ->select_ops indirection to nf_tables named objects, so we can
choose between different flavours of the same object type, patch from
Pablo M. Bermudo.
3) Shorter function names in nft_limit, basically:
s/nft_limit_pkt_bytes/nft_limit_bytes, also from Pablo M. Bermudo.
4) Add new stateful limit named object type, this allows us to create
limit policies that you can identify via name, also from Pablo.
5) Remove unused hooknum parameter in conntrack ->packet indirection.
From Florian Westphal.
6) Patches to remove CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG and macros such as
IP_NF_ASSERT and IP_NF_ASSERT. From Varsha Rao.
7) Add nf_tables_updchain() helper function and use it from
nf_tables_newchain() to make it more maintainable. Similarly,
add nf_tables_addchain() and use it too.
8) Add new netlink NLM_F_NONREC flag, this flag should only be used for
deletion requests, specifically, to support non-recursive deletion.
Based on what we discussed during NFWS'17 in Faro.
9) Use NLM_F_NONREC from table and sets in nf_tables.
10) Support for recursive chain deletion. Table and set deletion
commands come with an implicit content flush on deletion, while
chains do not. This patch addresses this inconsistency by adding
the code to perform recursive chain deletions. This also comes with
the bits to deal with the new NLM_F_NONREC netlink flag.

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support
The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
hardware features of x86 CPUs:
- Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)
Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
default.
(By Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
decrypt) as well.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
by default.
(By Tom Lendacky)
- Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
switch mm's.
(By Andy Lutomirski)
All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
are all enabled in v4.14 at once"
