915239472a macb: don't use platform_set_drvdata() on a net_device
Commit 71d6429 (Driver core: convert platform_{get,set}_drvdata to
static inline functions) now triggers a warning in the macb network
driver:

  CC      drivers/net/macb.o
drivers/net/macb.c: In function ‘macb_mii_init’:
drivers/net/macb.c:263: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘platform_set_drvdata’ from incompatible pointer type
include/linux/platform_device.h:138: note: expected ‘struct platform_device *’ but argument is of type ‘struct net_device *’

Use dev_set_drvdata() on the device embedded in the net_device instead.

b44d211e16 netlink: handle errors from netlink_dump()
netlink_dump() may failed, but nobody handle its error.
It generates output data, when a previous portion has been returned to
user space. This mechanism works when all data isn't go in skb. If we
enter in netlink_recvmsg() and skb is absent in the recv queue, the
netlink_dump() will not been executed. So if netlink_dump() is failed
one time, the new data never appear and the reader will sleep forever.

netlink_dump() is called from two places:

1. from netlink_sendmsg->...->netlink_dump_start().
   In this place we can report error directly and it will be returned
   by sendmsg().

2. from netlink_recvmsg
   There we can't report error directly, because we have a portion of
   valid output data and call netlink_dump() for prepare the next portion.
   If netlink_dump() is failed, the socket will be mark as error and the
   next recvmsg will be failed.

299c56966a x86: Use u32 instead of long to set reset vector back to 0
A customer of ours, complained that when setting the reset
vector back to 0, it trashed other data and hung their box.
They noticed when only 4 bytes were set to 0 instead of 8,
everything worked correctly.

Mathew pointed out:

 |
 | We're supposed to be resetting trampoline_phys_low and
 | trampoline_phys_high here, which are two 16-bit values.
 | Writing 64 bits is definitely going to overwrite space
 | that we're not supposed to be touching.
 |

So limit the area modified to u32.

3a142a0672 clockevents: Prevent oneshot mode when broadcast device is periodic
When the per cpu timer is marked CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP, then we only
can switch into oneshot mode, when the backup broadcast device
supports oneshot mode as well. Otherwise we would try to switch the
broadcast device into an unsupported mode unconditionally. This went
unnoticed so far as the current available broadcast devices support
oneshot mode. Seth unearthed this problem while debugging and working
around an hpet related BIOS wreckage.

Add the necessary check to tick_is_oneshot_available().

7137c6bd45 aio: fix race between io_destroy() and io_submit()
A race can occur when io_submit() races with io_destroy():

 CPU1						CPU2
io_submit()
  do_io_submit()
    ...
    ctx = lookup_ioctx(ctx_id);
						io_destroy()
    Now do_io_submit() holds the last reference to ctx.
    ...
    queue new AIO
    put_ioctx(ctx) - frees ctx with active AIOs

We solve this issue by checking whether ctx is being destroyed in AIO
submission path after adding new AIO to ctx.  Then we are guaranteed that
either io_destroy() waits for new AIO or we see that ctx is being
destroyed and bail out.

while in RTC HW REG, month range is 1~12, day of the week range is 1~7,
this patch adjusts difference of them.

The efect of this bug was that most of month will be operated on as the
next month by the hardware (When in Jan it maybe even worse).  For
example, if in May, software wrote 4 to the hardware, which handled it as
April.  Then the logic would be different between software and hardware,
which would cause weird things to happen.

2876592f23 mm: vmscan: stop reclaim/compaction earlier due to insufficient progress if !__GFP_REPEAT
should_continue_reclaim() for reclaim/compaction allows scanning to
continue even if pages are not being reclaimed until the full list is
scanned.  In terms of allocation success, this makes sense but potentially
it introduces unwanted latency for high-order allocations such as
transparent hugepages and network jumbo frames that would prefer to fail
the allocation attempt and fallback to order-0 pages.  Worse, there is a
potential that the full LRU scan will clear all the young bits, distort
page aging information and potentially push pages into swap that would
have otherwise remained resident.

This patch will stop reclaim/compaction if no pages were reclaimed in the
last SWAP_CLUSTER_MAX pages that were considered.  For allocations such as
hugetlbfs that use __GFP_REPEAT and have fewer fallback options, the full
LRU list may still be scanned.

Order-0 allocation should not be affected because RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION
is not set so the following avoids the gfp_mask being examined:

        if (!(sc->reclaim_mode & RECLAIM_MODE_COMPACTION))
                return false;

A tool was developed based on ftrace that tracked the latency of
high-order allocations while transparent hugepage support was enabled and
three benchmarks were run.  The "fix-infinite" figures are 2.6.38-rc4 with
Johannes's patch "vmscan: fix zone shrinking exit when scan work is done"
applied.

Mean time for order-1 allocations is reduced.  order-2 looks increased but
with so few allocations, it's not particularly significant.  THP mean
allocation latency is also reduced.  That said, allocation time varies so
significantly that the reductions are within noise.

Max allocation time is reduced by a significant amount for low-order
allocations but reduced for THP allocations which presumably are now
breaking before reclaim has done enough work.

Again, mean time for order-1 allocations is reduced while order-2
allocations are too few to draw conclusions from.  The mean time for THP
allocations is also slightly reduced albeit the reductions are within
varianes.

Once again, our maximum allocation time is significantly reduced for
low-order allocations and slightly increased for THP allocations.

This benchmark creates one thread per CPU which references an amount of
anonymous memory 1.5 times the size of physical RAM.  This pounds swap
quite heavily and is intended to exercise THP a bit.

Mean allocation time for order-1 is reduced as before.  It's also reduced
for THP allocations but the variations here are pretty massive due to
swap.  As before, maximum allocation times are significantly reduced.

Overall, the patch reduces the mean and maximum allocation latencies for
the smaller high-order allocations.  This was with Slab configured so it
would be expected to be more significant with Slub which uses these size
allocations more aggressively.

The mean allocation times for THP allocations are also slightly reduced.
The maximum latency was slightly increased as predicted by the comments
due to reclaim/compaction breaking early.  However, workloads care more
about the latency of lower-order allocations than THP so it's an
acceptable trade-off.

ac3c830419 drivers/nfc/pn544.c: add missing regulator
The regulator framework is used for power management.  The regulators are
only named in the driver code, the actual control stuff is in the board
file for each architecture or use case.

The PN544 chip has three regulators that can be controlled or not -
depending on the architecture where the chip is being used.  So some of
the regulators may not be controllable.  In our current case the third
regulator, which was missing from the code, went unnoticed because we
didn't need to control it.  To be as general as possible - in this respect
- the driver needs to list all regulators.  Then the board file can be
used to actually set the usage.

fba99fa38b swiotlb: fix wrong panic
swiotlb's map_page wrongly calls panic() when it can't find a buffer fit
for device's dma mask.  It should return an error instead.

Devices with an odd dma mask (i.e.  under 4G) like b44 network card hit
this bug (the system crashes):

   http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=129648943830106&w=2

If swiotlb returns an error, b44 driver can use the own bouncing
mechanism.

a879bf582d mm: grab rcu read lock in move_pages()
The move_pages() usage of find_task_by_vpid() requires rcu_read_lock() to
prevent free_pid() from reclaiming the pid.

Without this patch, RCU warnings are printed in v2.6.38-rc4 move_pages()
with:

  CONFIG_LOCKUP_DETECTOR=y
  CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
  CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
  CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y
  CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y

Previously, migrate_pages() went through a similar transformation
replacing usage of tasklist_lock with rcu read lock:

22bacca48a epoll: prevent creating circular epoll structures
In several places, an epoll fd can call another file's ->f_op->poll()
method with ep->mtx held.  This is in general unsafe, because that other
file could itself be an epoll fd that contains the original epoll fd.

The code defends against this possibility in its own ->poll() method using
ep_call_nested, but there are several other unsafe calls to ->poll
elsewhere that can be made to deadlock.  For example, the following simple
program causes the call in ep_insert recursively call the original fd's
->poll, leading to deadlock:

 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <sys/epoll.h>

 int main(void) {
     int e1, e2, p[2];
     struct epoll_event evt = {
         .events = EPOLLIN
     };

     e1 = epoll_create(1);
     e2 = epoll_create(2);
     pipe(p);

     epoll_ctl(e2, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e1, &evt);
     epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, p[0], &evt);
     write(p[1], p, sizeof p);
     epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2, &evt);

     return 0;
 }

On insertion, check whether the inserted file is itself a struct epoll,
and if so, do a recursive walk to detect whether inserting this file would
create a loop of epoll structures, which could lead to deadlock.
