The effect of cache sync operation is to drain the store buffer and
wait for all internal buffers to be empty. In normal conditions, store
buffer is able to merge the normal memory writes within its 32-byte
data buffers. Due to this erratum present in r3p0, the effect of cache
sync operation on the store buffer still remains when the operation
completes. This means that the store buffer is always asked to drain
and this prevents it from merging any further writes.
This can severely affect performance on the write traffic esp. on
Normal memory NC one.
The proposed workaround is to replace the normal offset of cache sync
operation(0x730) by another offset targeting an unmapped PL310
register 0x740.

Eric W. Biderman and Michal Hocko reported various memory corruptions
that we suspected to be related to a LIST head located on stack, that
was manipulated after thread left function frame (and eventually exited,
so its stack was freed and reused).
Eric Dumazet suggested the problem was probably coming from commit
443457242b (net: factorize
sync-rcu call in unregister_netdevice_many)
This patch fixes __dev_close() and dev_close() to properly deinit their
respective LIST_HEAD(single) before exiting.

When list debugging is enabled, we aim to readably show list corruption
errors, and the basic list_add/list_del operations end up having extra
debugging code in them to do some basic validation of the list entries.
However, "list_del_init()" and "list_move[_tail]()" ended up avoiding
the debug code due to how they were written. This fixes that.
So the _next_ time we have list_move() problems with stale list entries,
we'll hopefully have an easier time finding them..

Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.
This patch reverts the following commits:

1daeddd596 - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration

There is a double completion associated with error handling for RC QPs.
The sequence is:
- The do_rc_ack() routine fields an RNR nack and there are 0
rnr_retries configured on the QP.
- qib_error_qp() stops the pending timer
- qib_rc_send_complete() is called from sdma_complete()
- qib_rc_send_complete() starts the timer because the msb of the psn
just completed says an ack is needed.
- a bunch of flushes occur as ipoib posts WQEs to an error'ed QP
- rc_timeout() calls qib_restart_rc()
- qib_restart_rc() calls qib_send_complete() with a
IB_WC_RETRY_EXC_ERR on a wqe that has already been completed in the
past
The fix avoids starting the timer since another packet will never
arrive.

The driver was not flushing all writebacks before unloading, possibly

This reverts commit 75f1dc0d07 ("block: check bdev_read_only() from
blkdev_get()"). That commit added stricter checking to make sure
devices that were being used read-only were actually opened in that
mode.
It turns out that the change breaks a bunch of kernel code that opens
block devices. Affected systems include dm, md, and the loop device.
Because strict checking for read-only opens of block devices was not
done before this, the code that opens the devices was opening them
read-write even if they were being used read-only. Auditing all that
code will take time, and new userspace packages for dm, mdadm, etc.
will also be required.

Due to the default case handling the older chipsets, a bunch of the newer
ones ended up having the wrong tiling regs used. This commit switches the
default case to handle the newest chipsets.
This also makes nv4e touch the "extra" tiling regs. "nv" doesn't touch
them for C51 but traces of the NVIDIA binary driver show it being done
there.
I couldn't find NV41/NV45 traces to confirm the behaviour there, but an

When Al moved the nameidata_dentry_drop_rcu_maybe() call into the
do_follow_link function in commit 844a391799 ("nothing in
do_follow_link() is going to see RCU"), he mistakenly left the
BUG_ON(inode != path->dentry->d_inode);
behind. Which would otherwise be ok, but that BUG_ON() really needs to
be _after_ dropping RCU, since the dentry isn't necessarily stable
otherwise.
So complete the code movement in that commit, and move the BUG_ON() into
do_follow_link() too. This means that we need to pass in 'inode' as an
argument (just for this one use), but that's a small thing. And
eventually we may be confident enough in our path lookup that we can
just remove the BUG_ON() and the unnecessary inode argument.
