3ea8d440a8 lib/vsprintf.c: eliminate duplicate hex string array
gcc doesn't merge or overlap const char[] objects with identical contents
(probably language lawyers would also insist that these things have
different addresses), but there's no reason to have the string
"0123456789ABCDEF" occur in multiple places.  hex_asc_upper is declared in
kernel.h and defined in lib/hexdump.c, which is unconditionally compiled
in.

e26c12c777 lib/vsprintf.c: reduce stack use in number()
At least since the initial git commit, when base was passed as a separate
parameter, number() has only been called with bases 8, 10 and 16.  I'm
guessing that 66 was to accommodate 64 0/1, a sign and a '\0', but the
buffer is only used for the actual digits.  Octal digits carry 3 bits of
information, so 24 is enough.  Spell that 3*sizeof(num) so one less place
needs to be changed should long long ever be 128 bits.  Also remove the
commented-out code that would handle an arbitrary base.

51be17dfff lib/vsprintf.c: eliminate some branches
Since FORMAT_TYPE_INT is simply 1 more than FORMAT_TYPE_UINT, and
similarly for BYTE/UBYTE, SHORT/USHORT, LONG/ULONG, we can eliminate a few
instructions by making SIGN have the value 1 instead of 2, and then use
arithmetic instead of branches for computing the right spec->type.  It's a
little hacky, but certainly in the same spirit as SMALL needing to have
the value 0x20.  For example for the spec->qualifier == 'l' case, gcc now
generates

     75e:       0f b6 53 01             movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx
     762:       83 e2 01                and    $0x1,%edx
     765:       83 c2 09                add    $0x9,%edx
     768:       88 13                   mov    %dl,(%rbx)

instead of

     763:       0f b6 53 01             movzbl 0x1(%rbx),%edx
     767:       83 e2 02                and    $0x2,%edx

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt.

 2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers
    can support hw switch offloading.  From Floria Fainelli.

 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave,
    from Madhu Challa.

 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck.

 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel
    Borkmann.

 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25,
    rose, etc.  And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to
    implement MPLS support.  All from Eric Biederman.

 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman.

 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed
    up route lookups even further.  From Alexander Duyck.

 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation,
    from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf.  In particular, in the case where
    an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty
    table, we expand the table much more sanely.

10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric
    Biederman.

11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov.

12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be
    established in the main hash table.  Much less false sharing since
    hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to
    go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed
    underneath.  From Eric Dumazet.

13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk.

14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6.  From
    Hannes Frederic Sowa.

15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic
    Sowa.

16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard

4a20799d11 mm: move memtest under mm
Memtest is a simple feature which fills the memory with a given set of
patterns and validates memory contents, if bad memory regions is detected
it reserves them via memblock API.  Since memblock API is widely used by
other architectures this feature can be enabled outside of x86 world.

This patch set promotes memtest to live under generic mm umbrella and
enables memtest feature for arm/arm64.

It was reported that this patch set was useful for tracking down an issue
with some errant DMA on an arm64 platform.

This patch (of 6):

There is nothing platform dependent in the core memtest code, so other
platforms might benefit from this feature too.

6b6378355b x86, mm: support huge KVA mappings on x86
Implement huge KVA mapping interfaces on x86.

On x86, MTRRs can override PAT memory types with a 4KB granularity.  When
using a huge page, MTRRs can override the memory type of the huge page,
which may lead a performance penalty.  The processor can also behave in an
undefined manner if a huge page is mapped to a memory range that MTRRs
have mapped with multiple different memory types.  Therefore, the mapping
code falls back to use a smaller page size toward 4KB when a mapping range
is covered by non-WB type of MTRRs.  The WB type of MTRRs has no affect on
the PAT memory types.

pud_set_huge() and pmd_set_huge() call mtrr_type_lookup() to see if a
given range is covered by MTRRs.  MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK indicates that the
range is either covered by WB or not covered and the MTRR default value is
set to WB.  0xFF indicates that MTRRs are disabled.

HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is selected when X86_64 or X86_32 with X86_PAE is set.
 X86_32 without X86_PAE is not supported since such config can unlikey be
benefited from this feature, and there was an issue found in testing.

e61ce6ade4 mm: change ioremap to set up huge I/O mappings
ioremap_pud_range() and ioremap_pmd_range() are changed to create huge I/O
mappings when their capability is enabled, and a request meets required
conditions -- both virtual & physical addresses are aligned by their huge
page size, and a requested range fufills their huge page size.  When
pud_set_huge() or pmd_set_huge() returns zero, i.e.  no-operation is
performed, the code simply falls back to the next level.

The changes are only enabled when CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is defined on
the architecture.

0ddab1d2ed lib/ioremap.c: add huge I/O map capability interfaces
Add ioremap_pud_enabled() and ioremap_pmd_enabled(), which return 1 when
I/O mappings with pud/pmd are enabled on the kernel.

ioremap_huge_init() calls arch_ioremap_pud_supported() and
arch_ioremap_pmd_supported() to initialize the capabilities at boot-time.

A new kernel option "nohugeiomap" is also added, so that user can disable
the huge I/O map capabilities when necessary.

simillar to iov_iter_fault_in_readable() but differs in that it is
not limited to faulting in the first iovec and instead faults in
"bytes" bytes iterating over the iovecs as necessary.

Also, instead of only faulting in the first and last page of the
range, all pages are faulted in.

This function is needed by NTFS when it does multi page file
writes.

e9637415a9 block: fix blk_stack_limits() regression due to lcm() change
Linux 3.19 commit 69c953c ("lib/lcm.c: lcm(n,0)=lcm(0,n) is 0, not n")
caused blk_stack_limits() to not properly stack queue_limits for stacked
devices (e.g. DM).

Fix this regression by establishing lcm_not_zero() and switching
blk_stack_limits() over to using it.

DM uses blk_set_stacking_limits() to establish the initial top-level
queue_limits that are then built up based on underlying devices' limits
using blk_stack_limits().  In the case of optimal_io_size (io_opt)
blk_set_stacking_limits() establishes a default value of 0.  With commit
69c953c, lcm(0, n) is no longer n, which compromises proper stacking of
the underlying devices' io_opt.

Test:
$ modprobe scsi_debug dev_size_mb=10 num_tgts=1 opt_blks=1536
$ cat /sys/block/sde/queue/optimal_io_size
786432
$ dmsetup create node --table "0 100 linear /dev/sde 0"

Before this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size
0

After this fix:
$ cat /sys/block/dm-5/queue/optimal_io_size

bc917be810 saner iov_iter initialization primitives
iovec-backed iov_iter instances are assumed to satisfy several properties:
	* no more than UIO_MAXIOV elements in iovec array
	* total size of all ranges is no more than MAX_RW_COUNT
	* all ranges pass access_ok().

The problem is, invariants of data structures should be established in the
primitives creating those data structures, not in the code using those
primitives.  And iov_iter_init() violates that principle.  For a while we
managed to get away with that, but once the use of iov_iter started to
spread, it didn't take long for shit to hit the fan - missed check in
sys_sendto() had introduced a roothole.

We _do_ have primitives for importing and validating iovecs (both native and
compat ones) and those primitives are almost always followed by shoving the
resulting iovec into iov_iter.  Life would be considerably simpler (and safer)
if we combined those primitives with initializing iov_iter.

That gives us two new primitives - import_iovec() and compat_import_iovec().
Calling conventions:
	iovec = iov_array;
	err = import_iovec(direction, uvec, nr_segs,
			   ARRAY_SIZE(iov_array), &iovec,
			   &iter);
imports user vector into kernel space (into iov_array if it fits, allocated
if it doesn't fit or if iovec was NULL), validates it and sets iter up to
refer to it.  On success 0 is returned and allocated kernel copy (or NULL
if the array had fit into caller-supplied one) is returned via iovec.
On failure all allocations are undone and -E... is returned.  If the total
size of ranges exceeds MAX_RW_COUNT, the excess is silently truncated.

compat_import_iovec() expects uvec to be a pointer to user array of compat_iovec;
otherwise it's identical to import_iovec().

Finally, import_single_range() sets iov_iter backed by single-element iovec
covering a user-supplied range -

	err = import_single_range(direction, address, size, iovec, &iter);

does validation and sets iter up.  Again, size in excess of MAX_RW_COUNT gets
silently truncated.

Next commits will be switching the things up to use of those and reducing
the amount of iov_iter_init() instances.

This patch adds the missing bits to allow multiple rehashes.  The
read-side as well as remove already handle this correctly.  So it's
only the rehasher and insertion that need modification to handle
this.

Note that this patch doesn't actually enable it so for now rehashing
is still only performed by the worker thread.

This patch also disables the explicit expand/shrink interface because
the table is meant to expand and shrink automatically, and continuing
to export these interfaces unnecessarily complicates the life of the
rehasher since the rehash process is now composed of two parts.

the last time I merged.  And this worked beautifully.

The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple
overlapping changes, and were easily to resolve.

02fd97c3d4 rhashtable: Allow hash/comparison functions to be inlined
This patch deals with the complaint that we make indirect function
calls on the fast paths unnecessarily in rhashtable.  We resolve
it by moving the fast paths into inline functions that take struct
rhashtable_param (which obviously must be the same set of parameters
supplied to rhashtable_init) as an argument.

The only remaining indirect call is to obj_hashfn (or key_hashfn it
obj_hashfn is unset) on the rehash as well as the insert-during-
rehash slow path.

This patch also extends the support of vairable-length keys to
include those where the key is fixed but scattered in the object.
For example, in netlink we want to key off the namespace and the
portid but they're not next to each other.

This patch does this by directly using the object hash function
as the indicator of whether the key is accessible or not.  It
also adds a new function obj_cmpfn to compare a key against an
object.  This means that the caller no longer needs to supply
explicit compare functions.

All this is done in a backwards compatible manner so no existing
users are affected until they convert to the new interface.
