KASAN found that our additional element processing scripts drop off
the end of the VPD page into unallocated space. The reason is that
not every element has additional information but our traversal
routines think they do, leading to them expecting far more additional
information than is present. Fix this by adding a gate to the
traversal routine so that it only processes elements that are expected
to have additional information (list is in SES-2 section 6.1.13.1:
Additional Element Status diagnostic page overview)

For adjtimex()'s ADJ_SETOFFSET, make sure the tv_usec value is
sane. We might multiply them later which can cause an overflow
and undefined behavior.
This patch introduces new helper functions to simplify the
checking code and adds comments to clarify
Orginally this patch was by Sasha Levin, but I've basically
rewritten it, so he should get credit for finding the issue
and I should get the blame for any mistakes made since.
Also, credit to Richard Cochran for the phrasing used in the
comment for what is considered valid here.

ROL on a 32 bit integer with a shift of 32 or more is undefined and the
result is arch-dependent. Avoid this by handling the trivial case of
roling by 0 correctly.
The trivial solution of checking if shift is 0 breaks gcc's detection
of this code as a ROL instruction, which is unacceptable.
This bug was reported and fixed in GCC
(https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57157):
The standard rotate idiom,
(x << n) | (x >> (32 - n))
is recognized by gcc (for concreteness, I discuss only the case that x
is an uint32_t here).
However, this is portable C only for n in the range 0 < n < 32. For n
== 0, we get x >> 32 which gives undefined behaviour according to the
C standard (6.5.7, Bitwise shift operators). To portably support n ==
0, one has to write the rotate as something like
(x << n) | (x >> ((-n) & 31))
And this is apparently not recognized by gcc.
Note that this is broken on older GCCs and will result in slower ROL.

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences
are:
* inode and dentry are passed separately
* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.
It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode. That'll change
in the next commits.

mlx4 devices (ConnectX-2, ConnectX-3) has a limitation
where rdma read work queue entries cannot exceed 512 bytes.
A rdma_read wqe needs to fit in 512 bytes:
- wqe control segment (16 bytes)
- rdma segment (16 bytes)
- scatter elements (16 bytes each)
So max_sge_rd should be: (512 - 16 - 16) / 16 = 30.

Although list_for_each_entry_rcu() can in theory be used anywhere
preemption is disabled, it can result in calls to lockdep, which cannot
be used in certain constrained execution environments, such as exception
handlers that do not map the entire kernel into their address spaces.
This commit therefore adds list_entry_lockless() and
list_for_each_entry_lockless(), which never invoke lockdep and can
therefore safely be used from these constrained environments, but only
as long as those environments are non-preemptible (or items are never
deleted from the list).
Use synchronize_sched(), call_rcu_sched(), or synchronize_sched_expedited()
in updates for the needed grace periods. Of course, if items are never
deleted from the list, there is no need to wait for grace periods.

This commit replaces a local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() pair with
a lockdep assertion that interrupts are already disabled. This should
remove the corresponding overhead from the interrupt entry/exit fastpaths.
This change was inspired by the fact that Iftekhar Ahmed's mutation
testing showed that removing rcu_irq_enter()'s call to local_ird_restore()
had no effect, which might indicate that interrupts were always enabled
anyway.

The rcu_expedited, rcu_normal, and rcu_normal_after_boot kernel boot
parameters are pointless in the case of TINY_RCU because in that case
synchronous grace periods, both expedited and normal, are no-ops.
However, these three symbols contribute several hundred bytes of bloat.
This commit therefore uses CPP directives to avoid compiling this code
in TINY_RCU kernels.

Concurrent non-blocking slowpath ramrods can be completed
out-of-order on the completion chain. Recycling completed elements,
while previously sent elements are still completion pending,
can lead to overriding of active elements on the chain. Furthermore,
sending pending slowpath ramrods currently lacks the update of the
chain element physical pointer.
This patch:
* Ensures that ramrods are sent to the FW with
consecutive echo values.
* Handles out-of-order completions by freeing only first
successive completed entries.
* Updates the chain element physical pointer when copying
a pending element into a free element for sending.

The following commit which went into mainline through networking tree
3b13758f51de ("cgroups: Allow dynamically changing net_classid")
conflicts in net/core/netclassid_cgroup.c with the following pending
fix in cgroup/for-4.4-fixes.
1f7dd3e5a6e4 ("cgroup: fix handling of multi-destination migration from subtree_control enabling")
The former separates out update_classid() from cgrp_attach() and
updates it to walk all fds of all tasks in the target css so that it
can be used from both migration and config change paths. The latter
drops @css from cgrp_attach().
Resolve the conflict by making cgrp_attach() call update_classid()
with the css from the first task. We can revive @tset walking in
cgrp_attach() but given that net_cls is v1 only where there always is
only one target css during migration, this is fine.

Steven recommended open coding access to tracepoint->key to add
trace points to headers. Unfortunately this is difficult for some
headers (such as x86 asm/msr.h) because including tracepoint.h
includes so many other headers that it causes include loops.
The main problem is the include of linux/rcupdate.h, which
pulls in a lot of other headers. The rcu header is only needed
when actually defining trace points.
Move the struct tracepoint into a separate tracepoint-defs.h
header that can be included without pulling in all of RCU.

[ paulmck: Shift rcu_note_context_switch() to avoid deadlock, as suggested
by Peter Zijlstra. ]

Although expedited grace periods can be quite useful, and although their
OS jitter has been greatly reduced, they can still pose problems for
extreme real-time workloads. This commit therefore adds a rcu_normal
kernel boot parameter (which can also be manipulated via sysfs)
to suppress expedited grace periods, that is, to treat requests for
expedited grace periods as if they were requests for normal grace periods.
If both rcu_expedited and rcu_normal are specified, rcu_normal wins.
This means that if you are relying on expedited grace periods to speed up
boot, you will want to specify rcu_expedited on the kernel command line,
and then specify rcu_normal via sysfs once boot completes.

Thomas and Phil observed that under stress rhashtable insertion
sometimes failed with EBUSY, even though this error should only
ever been seen when we're under attack and our hash chain length
has grown to an unacceptable level, even after a rehash.
It turns out that the logic for detecting whether there is an
existing rehash is faulty. In particular, when two threads both
try to grow the same table at the same time, one of them may see
the newly grown table and thus erroneously conclude that it had
been rehashed. This is what leads to the EBUSY error.
This patch fixes this by remembering the current last table we
used during insertion so that rhashtable_insert_rehash can detect
when another thread has also done a resize/rehash. When this is
detected we will give up our resize/rehash and simply retry the
insertion with the new table.

Pull power management and ACPI fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"These fix a recent regression in the ACPI PCI host bridge
initialization code, clean up some recent changes (generic power
domains framework, ACPI AML debugger support), fix three older but
annoying bugs (PCI power management. generic power domains framework,
cpufreq) and a build problem (device properties framework), and update
a stale MAINTAINERS entry (ACPI backlight driver).
Specifics:
- Fix a regression in the ACPI PCI host bridge initialization code
introduced by the recent consolidation of the host bridge handling
on x86 and ia64 that forgot to take one special piece of code
related to NUMA on x86 into account (Liu Jiang).
- Improve the Kconfig help description of the new ACPI AML debugger
support option to avoid possible confusion (Peter Zijlstra).
- Remove a piece of code in the generic power domains framework that
should have been removed by one of the recent commits modifying
that code (Ulf Hansson).
- Reduce the log level of a PCI PM message that generates a lot of
false-positive log noise for some drivers and improve the message
itself while at it (Imre Deak).
- Fix the OF-based domain lookup code in the generic power domains
framework to make it drop references to DT nodes correctly (Eric
Anholt).
- Prevent the cpufreq core from setting the policy back to the
default after a CPU offline/online cycle for cpufreq drivers
providing the ->setpolicy callback (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Fix a build problem for CONFIG_ACPI unset in the device properties
framework (Hanjun Guo).
- Fix a stale file path in the ACPI backlight driver entry in
MAINTAINERS (Dan Carpenter)"

Revert commit 033291eccbdb ("vfio: Include No-IOMMU mode") due to lack
of a user. This was originally intended to fill a need for the DPDK
driver, but uptake has been slow so rather than support an unproven
kernel interface revert it and revisit when userspace catches up.

The cputime can only be updated by the current task itself, even in
vtime case. So we can safely use seqcount instead of seqlock as there
is no writer concurrency involved.

Readers need to know if vtime runs at all on some CPU somewhere, this
is a fast-path check to determine if we need to check further the need
to add up any tickless cputime delta.
This fast path check uses context tracking state because vtime is tied
to context tracking as of now. This check appears to be confusing though
so lets use a vtime function that deals with context tracking details
in vtime implementation instead.
