2999b58b79 ide/libata: fix ata_id_is_cfa() (take 4)
When checking for the CFA feature set support, ata_id_is_cfa() tests bit 2 in
word 82 of the identify data instead the word 83;  it also checks the ATA/PI
version support in the word 80 (which the CompactFlash specifications have as
reserved), this having no slightest chance to work on the modern CF cards that
don't have 0x848A in the word 0...

f3d7f23f87 ahci: add a module parameter to ignore the SSS flags for async scanning
The SSS flag, which directs the OS to spin up one disk at a time
to not have the PSU blow out, sometimes gets set even when not needed.
The effect of this is a longer-than-needed boot time.

This patch adds a module parameter that makes the driver ignore SSS
at least as far as the parallel scan during boot is concerned...

These really do have Marvell 6042 chips on them, rather than the 5081 chip.

27421e211a Manually revert "mlock: downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions"
This essentially reverts commit 8edb08caf6.

It downgraded our mmap semaphore to a read-lock while mlocking pages, in
order to allow other threads (and external accesses like "ps" et al) to
walk the vma lists and take page faults etc.  Which is a nice idea, but
the implementation does not work.

Because we cannot upgrade the lock back to a write lock without
releasing the mmap semaphore, the code had to release the lock entirely
and then re-take it as a writelock.  However, that meant that the caller
possibly lost the vma chain that it was following, since now another
thread could come in and mmap/munmap the range.

The code tried to work around that by just looking up the vma again and
erroring out if that happened, but quite frankly, that was just a buggy
hack that doesn't actually protect against anything (the other thread
could just have replaced the vma with another one instead of totally
unmapping it).

The only way to downgrade to a read map _reliably_ is to do it at the
end, which is likely the right thing to do: do all the 'vma' operations
with the write-lock held, then downgrade to a read after completing them
all, and then do the "populate the newly mlocked regions" while holding
just the read lock.  And then just drop the read-lock and return to user
space.

The (perhaps somewhat simpler) alternative is to just make all the
callers of mlock_vma_pages_range() know that the mmap lock got dropped,
and just re-grab the mmap semaphore if it needs to mlock more than one
vma region.

So we can do this "downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions"
thing right, but the way it was done here was absolutely not correct.
Thus the revert, in the expectation that we will do it all correctly
some day.

878b8619f7 Fix memory corruption in console selection
Fix an off-by-two memory error in console selection.

The loop below goes from sel_start to sel_end (inclusive), so it writes
one more character.  This one more character was added to the allocated
size (+1), but it was not multiplied by an UTF-8 multiplier.

This patch fixes a memory corruption when UTF-8 console is used and the
user selects a few characters, all of them 3-byte in UTF-8 (for example
a frame line).

When memory redzones are enabled, a redzone corruption is reported.
When they are not enabled, trashing of random memory occurs.

fc8744adc8 Stop playing silly games with the VM_ACCOUNT flag
The mmap_region() code would temporarily set the VM_ACCOUNT flag for
anonymous shared mappings just to inform shmem_zero_setup() that it
should enable accounting for the resulting shm object.  It would then
clear the flag after calling ->mmap (for the /dev/zero case) or doing
shmem_zero_setup() (for the MAP_ANON case).

This just resulted in vma merge issues, but also made for just
unnecessary confusion.  Use the already-existing VM_NORESERVE flag for
this instead, and let shmem_{zero|file}_setup() just figure it out from
that.

This also happens to make it obvious that the new DRI2 GEM layer uses a
non-reserving backing store for its object allocation - which is quite
possibly not intentional.  But since I didn't want to change semantics
in this patch, I left it alone, and just updated the caller to use the
new flag semantics.

905db44087 packet: Avoid lock_sock in mmap handler
As the mmap handler gets called under mmap_sem, and we may grab
mmap_sem elsewhere under the socket lock to access user data, we
should avoid grabbing the socket lock in the mmap handler.

Since the only thing we care about in the mmap handler is for
pg_vec* to be invariant, i.e., to exclude packet_set_ring, we
can achieve this by simply using a new mutex.

b0a9b5111a hrtimer: prevent negative expiry value after clock_was_set()
Impact: prevent false positive WARN_ON() in clockevents_program_event()

clock_was_set() changes the base->offset of CLOCK_REALTIME and
enforces the reprogramming of the clockevent device to expire timers
which are based on CLOCK_REALTIME. If the clock change is large enough
then the subtraction of the timer expiry value and base->offset can
become negative which triggers the warning in
clockevents_program_event().

Check the subtraction result and set a negative value to 0.

94df7de028 hrtimers: allow the hot-unplugging of all cpus
Impact: fix CPU hotplug hang on Power6 testbox

On architectures that support offlining all cpus (at least powerpc/pseries),
hot-unpluging the tick_do_timer_cpu can result in a system hang.

This comes from the fact that if the cpu going down happens to be the
cpu doing the tick, then as the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happens after the
cpu is dead (via the CPU_DEAD notification), we're left without ticks,
jiffies are frozen and any task relying on timers (msleep, ...) is stuck.
That's particularly the case for the cpu looping in __cpu_die() waiting
for the dying cpu to be dead.

This patch addresses this by having the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happen
earlier during the CPU_DYING notification. For this, a new clockevent
notification type is introduced (CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_CPU_DYING) which is triggered
in hrtimer_cpu_notify().

7f22391cbe hrtimers: increase clock min delta threshold while interrupt hanging
Impact: avoid timer IRQ hanging slow systems

While using the function graph tracer on a virtualized system, the
hrtimer_interrupt can hang the system on an infinite loop.

This can be caused in several situations:

 - the hardware is very slow and HZ is set too high

 - something intrusive is slowing the system down (tracing under emulation)

... and the next clock events to program are always before the current time.

This patch implements a reasonable compromise: if such a situation is
detected, we share the CPUs time in 1/4 to process the hrtimer interrupts.
This is enough to let the system running without serious starvation.

It has been successfully tested under VirtualBox with 1000 HZ and 100 HZ
with function graph tracer launched. On both cases, the clock events were
increased until about 25 ms periodic ticks, which means 40 HZ.

So we change a hard to debug hang into a warning message and a system that
still manages to limp along.

This kernel symbol provides a way for drivers to switch on alternate
function for a certain GPIO pin. Turning it off is done implicitly when
changing the GPIO direction, as that would be fixed when using the given

1c4db8e828 MIPS: RB532: Simplify dev3 init
As rb532_dev3_ctl_res is not used by any platform device, it can be dropped
when not used for holding the physical address of the device 3 controller.

Also a size of one byte should suffice when ioremapping the physical
address mentioned above, as only a single byte is being read from and
written to it.
