a1dca315ce MIPS: pci-ar724x: avoid data bus error due to a missing PCIe module
If the controller has no PCIe module attached, accessing of the device
configuration space causes a data bus error. Avoid this by checking the
status of the PCIe link in advance, and indicate an error if the link
is down.

c944b0b935 ARM: imx6: spin the cpu until hardware takes it down
Though commit 602bf40 (ARM: imx6: exit coherency when shutting down
a cpu) improves the stability of imx6q cpu hotplug a lot, there are
still hangs seen with a more stressful hotplug testing.

It's expected that once imx_enable_cpu(cpu, false) is called, the cpu
will be taken down by hardware immediately, and the code after that
will not get any chance to execute.  However, this is not always the
case from the testing.  The cpu could possibly be alive for a few
cycles before hardware actually takes it down.  So rather than letting
cpu execute some code that could cause a hang in these cycles, let's
make the cpu spin there and wait for hardware to take it down.

676ce6d5ca block: replace __getblk_slow misfix by grow_dev_page fix
Commit 91f68c89d8 ("block: fix infinite loop in __getblk_slow")
is not good: a successful call to grow_buffers() cannot guarantee
that the page won't be reclaimed before the immediate next call to
__find_get_block(), which is why there was always a loop there.

Yesterday I got "EXT4-fs error (device loop0): __ext4_get_inode_loc:3595:
inode #19278: block 664: comm cc1: unable to read itable block" on console,
which pointed to this commit.

I've been trying to bisect for weeks, why kbuild-on-ext4-on-loop-on-tmpfs
sometimes fails from a missing header file, under memory pressure on
ppc G5.  I've never seen this on x86, and I've never seen it on 3.5-rc7
itself, despite that commit being in there: bisection pointed to an
irrelevant pinctrl merge, but hard to tell when failure takes between
18 minutes and 38 hours (but so far it's happened quicker on 3.6-rc2).

(I've since found such __ext4_get_inode_loc errors in /var/log/messages
from previous weeks: why the message never appeared on console until
yesterday morning is a mystery for another day.)

Revert 91f68c89d8, restoring __getblk_slow() to how it was (plus
a checkpatch nitfix).  Simplify the interface between grow_buffers()
and grow_dev_page(), and avoid the infinite loop beyond end of device
by instead checking init_page_buffers()'s end_block there (I presume
that's more efficient than a repeated call to blkdev_max_block()),
returning -ENXIO to __getblk_slow() in that case.

And remove akpm's ten-year-old "__getblk() cannot fail ... weird"
comment, but that is worrying: are all users of __getblk() really
now prepared for a NULL bh beyond end of device, or will some oops??

Erroneously the DWMAC_CORE_3_40 was set to 34 instead of 0x34.

9b04f35005 ipv4: properly update pmtu
Sylvain Munault reported following info :

 - TCP connection get "stuck" with data in send queue when doing
   "large" transfers ( like typing 'ps ax' on a ssh connection )
 - Only happens on path where the PMTU is lower than the MTU of
   the interface
 - Is not present right after boot, it only appears 10-20min after
   boot or so. (and that's inside the _same_ TCP connection, it works
   fine at first and then in the same ssh session, it'll get stuck)
 - Definitely seems related to fragments somehow since I see a router
   sending ICMP message saying fragmentation is needed.
 - Exact same setup works fine with kernel 3.5.1

Problem happens when the 10 minutes (ip_rt_mtu_expires) expiration
period is over.

ip_rt_update_pmtu() calls dst_set_expires() to rearm a new expiration,
but dst_set_expires() does nothing because dst.expires is already set.

It seems we want to set the expires field to a new value, regardless
of prior one.

With help from Julian Anastasov.

36bf50d769 x86, microcode, AMD: Fix broken ucode patch size check
This issue was recently observed on an AMD C-50 CPU where a patch of
maximum size was applied.

Commit be62adb492 ("x86, microcode, AMD: Simplify ucode verification")
added current_size in get_matching_microcode(). This is calculated as
size of the ucode patch + 8 (ie. size of the header). Later this is
compared against the maximum possible ucode patch size for a CPU family.
And of course this fails if the patch has already maximum size.

5ad105e569 KVM: x86 emulator: use stack size attribute to mask rsp in stack ops
The sub-register used to access the stack (sp, esp, or rsp) is not
determined by the address size attribute like other memory references,
but by the stack segment's B bit (if not in x86_64 mode).

Fix by using the existing stack_mask() to figure out the correct mask.

This long-existing bug was exposed by a combination of a27685c33a
(emulate invalid guest state by default), which causes many more
instructions to be emulated, and a seabios change (possibly a bug) which
causes the high 16 bits of esp to become polluted across calls to real
mode software interrupts.

88ec2789d8 task_work: add a scheduling point in task_work_run()
It seems commit 4a9d4b02 (switch fput to task_work_add) reintroduced
the problem addressed in commit 944be0b2 (close_files(): add scheduling
point)

If a server process with a lot of files (say 2 million tcp sockets)
is killed, we can spend a lot of time in task_work_run() and trigger
a soft lockup.

35f2d16bb9 KVM: MMU: Fix mmu_shrink() so that it can free mmu pages as intended
Although the possible race described in

  commit 85b7059169
  KVM: MMU: fix shrinking page from the empty mmu

was correct, the real cause of that issue was a more trivial bug of
mmu_shrink() introduced by

  commit 1952639665
  KVM: MMU: do not iterate over all VMs in mmu_shrink()

Here is the bug:

	if (kvm->arch.n_used_mmu_pages > 0) {
		if (!nr_to_scan--)
			break;
		continue;
	}

We skip VMs whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero and try to shrink others:
in other words we try to shrink empty ones by mistake.

This patch reverses the logic so that mmu_shrink() can free pages from
the first VM whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero.  Note that we also add
comments explaining the role of nr_to_scan which is not practically
important now, hoping this will be improved in the future.

65b455b123 UBIFS: fix complaints about too small debug buffer size
When debugging is enabled, we use a temporary on-stack buffer for formatting
the key strings like "(11368871, direntry, 0xcd0750)". The buffer size is
32 bytes and sometimes it is not enough to fit the key string - e.g., when
inode numbers are high. This is not fatal, but the key strings are incomplete
and UBIFS complains like this:

	UBIFS assert failed in dbg_snprintf_key at 137 (pid 1)

This is a regression caused by "515315a UBIFS: fix key printing".

Fix the issue by increasing the buffer to 48 bytes.

2530cd4f44 x86/fixup_irq: Use cpu_online_mask instead of cpu_all_mask
When one CPU is going down and this CPU is the last one in irq
affinity, current code is setting cpu_all_mask as the new
affinity for that irq.

But for some systems (such as in Medfield Android mobile) the
firmware sends the interrupt to each CPU in the irq affinity
mask, averaged, and cpu_all_mask includes all potential CPUs,
i.e. offline ones as well.

So replace cpu_all_mask with cpu_online_mask.

d8636a2717 fbcon: fix race condition between console lock and cursor timer (v1.1)
So we've had a fair few reports of fbcon handover breakage between
efi/vesafb and i915 surface recently, so I dedicated a couple of
days to finding the problem.

Essentially the last thing we saw was the conflicting framebuffer
message and that was all.

So after much tracing with direct netconsole writes (printks
under console_lock not so useful), I think I found the race.

Thread A (driver load)    Thread B (timer thread)
  unbind_con_driver ->              |
  bind_con_driver ->                |
  vc->vc_sw->con_deinit ->          |
  fbcon_deinit ->                   |
  console_lock()                    |
      |                             |
      |                       fbcon_flashcursor timer fires
      |                       console_lock() <- blocked for A
      |
      |
fbcon_del_cursor_timer ->
  del_timer_sync
  (BOOM)

Of course because all of this is under the console lock,
we never see anything, also since we also just unbound the active
console guess what we never see anything.

Hopefully this fixes the problem for anyone seeing vesafb->kms
driver handoff.

v1.1: add comment suggestion from Alan.

 3) Unlike AF_UNIX, AF_PACKET sockets don't set a default credentials

c67fe3752a mm: compaction: Abort async compaction if locks are contended or taking too long
Jim Schutt reported a problem that pointed at compaction contending
heavily on locks.  The workload is straight-forward and in his own words;

	The systems in question have 24 SAS drives spread across 3 HBAs,
	running 24 Ceph OSD instances, one per drive.  FWIW these servers
	are dual-socket Intel 5675 Xeons w/48 GB memory.  I've got ~160
	Ceph Linux clients doing dd simultaneously to a Ceph file system
	backed by 12 of these servers.

Early in the test everything looks fine

There was other data but primarily it is all showing that compaction is
contended heavily on the zone->lock and zone->lru_lock.

commit [b2eef8c0: mm: compaction: minimise the time IRQs are disabled
while isolating pages for migration] noted that it was possible for
migration to hold the lru_lock for an excessive amount of time. Very
broadly speaking this patch expands the concept.

This patch introduces compact_checklock_irqsave() to check if a lock
is contended or the process needs to be scheduled. If either condition
is true then async compaction is aborted and the caller is informed.
The page allocator will fail a THP allocation if compaction failed due
to contention. This patch also introduces compact_trylock_irqsave()
which will acquire the lock only if it is not contended and the process
does not need to schedule.

de74f1cc3b mm: have order > 0 compaction start near a pageblock with free pages
Commit 7db8889ab0 ("mm: have order > 0 compaction start off where it
left") introduced a caching mechanism to reduce the amount work the free
page scanner does in compaction.  However, it has a problem.  Consider
two process simultaneously scanning free pages

					    			C
	Process A		M     S     			F
			|---------------------------------------|
	Process B		M 	FS

	C is zone->compact_cached_free_pfn
	S is cc->start_pfree_pfn
	M is cc->migrate_pfn
	F is cc->free_pfn

In this diagram, Process A has just reached its migrate scanner, wrapped
around and updated compact_cached_free_pfn accordingly.

Simultaneously, Process B finishes isolating in a block and updates
compact_cached_free_pfn again to the location of its free scanner.

Process A moves to "end_of_zone - one_pageblock" and runs this check

                if (cc->order > 0 && (!cc->wrapped ||
                                      zone->compact_cached_free_pfn >
                                      cc->start_free_pfn))
                        pfn = min(pfn, zone->compact_cached_free_pfn);

compact_cached_free_pfn is above where it started so the free scanner
skips almost the entire space it should have scanned.  When there are
multiple processes compacting it can end in a situation where the entire
zone is not being scanned at all.  Further, it is possible for two
processes to ping-pong update to compact_cached_free_pfn which is just
random.

Overall, the end result wrecks allocation success rates.

There is not an obvious way around this problem without introducing new
locking and state so this patch takes a different approach.

First, it gets rid of the skip logic because it's not clear that it
matters if two free scanners happen to be in the same block but with
racing updates it's too easy for it to skip over blocks it should not.

Second, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn in a more limited set of
circumstances.

If a scanner has wrapped, it updates compact_cached_free_pfn to the end
	of the zone. When a wrapped scanner isolates a page, it updates
	compact_cached_free_pfn to point to the highest pageblock it
	can isolate pages from.

If a scanner has not wrapped when it has finished isolated pages it
	checks if compact_cached_free_pfn is pointing to the end of the
	zone. If so, the value is updated to point to the highest
	pageblock that pages were isolated from. This value will not
	be updated again until a free page scanner wraps and resets
	compact_cached_free_pfn.

This is not optimal and it can still race but the compact_cached_free_pfn
will be pointing to or very near a pageblock with free pages.

3670e7e12e rapidio/tsi721: fix inbound doorbell interrupt handling
Make sure that there is no doorbell messages left behind due to disabled
interrupts during inbound doorbell processing.

The most common case for this bug is loss of rionet JOIN messages in
systems with three or more rionet participants and MSI or MSI-X enabled.
As result, requests for packet transfers may finish with "destination
unreachable" error message.

This patch is applicable to kernel versions starting from v3.2.
