903788892e lib: introduce common method to convert hex digits
hex_to_bin() is a little method which converts hex digit to its actual
value.  There are plenty of places where such functionality is needed.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: use tolower(), saving 3 bytes, test the more common case first - it's quicker]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: relocate tolower to make it even faster! (Joe)]

db0fd97c27 lib/hexdump.c: reduce stack variable size and cleanups
Reduce char linebuf[200] to the actual size required., which is 32 * 3 + 2
+ 32 + 1, ie: linebuf[131].

Change examples to use bool true not int 1.

Align multiline argument indentation to open parenthesis.

Use temporary for ptr[j] so trigraph fits on single line.

Convert printk ptr from %*p, (int)(2 * sizeof(void *)) to %p as %p uses
the same calculation for size.

0fa0559900 scripts/get_maintainer.pl: default to not include unspecified tags
This changes the default of the option --git-all-signature-types to be
disabled by default.

The effect being, that only certain (currently Signed-Off-By:, Acked-by:
and Reviewed-By:) tags are used to get adresses of potential maintainers.

Motivated is this change by the desire to not 'spam' people unnecessary: A
Tested-By or a Reported-By is not ment as a hint that those people want
to/are able to review patches to the code in question.

In a quest to find resilient statistics for this i came up with this:

I produced a list of all the tag-signers not already covered with a
signed-off/acked/reviewed tag somewhere in the last year of git history.

Those were 650 addresses of "assumed non-developers".

And to check if those "assumed non-developers" are professional
testers/reporters worth cc'ing, i then counted their total appearences
in the git log:

469 were mentioned only once.
123 were mentioned twice.
38 three times
8 four times
5 six times
5 five times
1 eight times
1 fourteen times

I believe this supports my thesis, that the ''non-maintainer-tags'' are
not actively useful for patch-review.  (except probably the guy mentioned
fourteen times...)

But of course one could also find arguments to poke holes in this
statistics, for example does this statistic not include code-locality: A
tested-by on a patch that touches some specific piece of code can be more
worth than a signed-off in another part of the tree.

But...  let's play it safe and let's err on the "safe" side meaning to not
spam those people when in doubt.  We already have the signed-off's and
Maintainers file.  So this should be ok.  And if need be, the maintainers
can always forward the patch.

[i probably could make a diploma thesis out of this changelog :)]

e4d26b027a scripts/get_maintainer.pl: optionally ignore non-maintainer signatures
When using --git to determine who to send a patch to, get_maintainers will
currently include all signatures.  This can include signers that simply
report an issue or test a patch.  Signers that use this tag are not
necessarily good candidates to review new patches.

This patch allows get_maintainers to optionally restrict output to only
signatures that use Signed-off-by:, Acked-by:, or Reviewed-by:.

Signed-off-by: is included because those are people who are responsible
for the code.

Acked-by: is questionable, but as signers that use this tag tend to be
active linux gatekeepers, false positives are tolerable.

Reviewed-by: is included because signers responsible for the code thought
that the review feedback for a changeset by that signer was valuable.

This patch has been modified from Florian's original submission to change
the supported signature types to the canonical forms and use slightly
different spacing.  A couple of spacing issues were also corrected in the
original source.  The command line argument was also renamed.

f40c396a9a ratelimit: add ratelimit_state_init()
For now, all users of ratelimit_state allocates it statically, so
DEFINE_RATELIMIT_STATE() is enough.  But, I want to use ratelimit_state
for fs, i.e.  per super_block to suppress too many error reports.

So, this adds ratelimit_state_init() to initialize ratelimite_state
which is dynamically allocated, instead of opencoding.

37682177af asm-generic: don't warn that atomic_t is only 24 bit
32-bit Sparc used to only allow usage of 24-bit of it's atomic_t type.
This was corrected with linux 2.6.3 when Keith M Wesolowski changed the
implementation to use the parisc approach of having an array of spinlocks
to protect the atomic_t.

These warnings were also removed from the sparc implementation when the
new implementation was merged in BKrev:402e4949VThdc6D3iaosSFUgabMfvw, but
the warning still remained in some other places without any 24-bit-only
atomic_t implementation inside the kernel.

We should remove these warnings to allow users to rely on the full 32-bit
range of atomic_t.

4c99000ac4 ntfs: use add_to_page_cache_lru()
Quote from Nick piggin's about btrfs patch
- http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org/msg04472.html.

"add_to_page_cache_lru is exported, so it should be used. Benefits over
using a private pagevec: neater code, 128 bytes fewer stack used, percpu
lru ordering is preserved, and finally don't need to flush pagevec
before returning so batching may be shared with other LRU insertions."

Let's use it instead of private pagevec in ntfs, too.

940370fc86 hangcheck-timer: fix x86_32 bugs
drivers/char/hangcheck-timer.c is doubly broken.  When the overflown value
of TIMER_FREQ is abnormally low, it spams the syslog with KERN_CRIT
messages "Hangcheck: hangcheck value past margin!" But whether it happens
or not depends on HZ and lpj in a complex way.  People have hit it
occasionally as far as google search can tell.

First, the following line overflows unsigned long:

# define TIMER_FREQ (HZ*loops_per_jiffy)

Second, and more importantly, loops_per_jiffy has little to do with the
con= version from the the time scale of get_cycles() (aka rdtsc) to the
time scale of jiffies.

The attached patch resolves both of the problems.

b3b77c8cae endian: #define __BYTE_ORDER
Linux does not define __BYTE_ORDER in its endian header files which makes
some header files bend backwards to get at the current endian.  Lets
#define __BYTE_ORDER in big_endian.h/litte_endian.h to make it easier for
header files that are used in user space too.

In userspace the convention is that

  1. _both_ __LITTLE_ENDIAN and __BIG_ENDIAN are defined,
  2. you have to test for e.g. __BYTE_ORDER == __BIG_ENDIAN.

1f85f87d4f cpuidle: add a repeating pattern detector to the menu governor
Currently, the menu governor uses the (corrected) next timer as key item
for predicting the idle duration.

It turns out that there are specific cases where this breaks down: There
are cases where we have a very repetitive pattern of idle durations, where
the idle period is pretty much the same, for reasons completely unrelated
to the next timer event.  Examples of such repeating patterns are network
loads with irq mitigation, the mouse moving but in theory also the wifi
beacons.

This patch adds a relatively simple detector for such repeating patterns,
where the standard deviation of the last 8 idle periods is compared to a
threshold.

With this extra predictor in place, measurements show that the DECAY
factor can now be increased (the decaying average will now decay slower)
to get an even more stable result.

4eaf3f6439 mem-hotplug: fix potential race while building zonelist for new populated zone
Add global mutex zonelists_mutex to fix the possible race:

     CPU0                                  CPU1                    CPU2
(1) zone->present_pages += online_pages;
(2)                                       build_all_zonelists();
(3)                                                               alloc_page();
(4)                                                               free_page();
(5) build_all_zonelists();
(6)   __build_all_zonelists();
(7)     zone->pageset = alloc_percpu();

In step (3,4), zone->pageset still points to boot_pageset, so bad
things may happen if 2+ nodes are in this state. Even if only 1 node
is accessing the boot_pageset, (3) may still consume too much memory
to fail the memory allocations in step (7).

Besides, atomic operation ensures alloc_percpu() in step (7) will never fail
since there is a new fresh memory block added in step(6).

1f522509c7 mem-hotplug: avoid multiple zones sharing same boot strapping boot_pageset
For each new populated zone of hotadded node, need to update its pagesets
with dynamically allocated per_cpu_pageset struct for all possible CPUs:

    1) Detach zone->pageset from the shared boot_pageset
       at end of __build_all_zonelists().

    2) Use mutex to protect zone->pageset when it's still
       shared in onlined_pages()

Otherwises, multiple zones of different nodes would share same boot strapping
boot_pageset for same CPU, which will finally cause below kernel panic:

0faa56389c mm: fix NR_SECTION_ROOTS == 0 when using using sparsemem extreme.
Got this while compiling for ARM/SA1100:

mm/sparse.c: In function '__section_nr':
mm/sparse.c:135: warning: 'root' is used uninitialized in this function

This patch follows Russell King's suggestion for a new calculation for
NR_SECTION_ROOTS.  Thanks also to Sergei Shtylyov for pointing out the
existence of the macro DIV_ROUND_UP.

Atsushi Nemoto observed:
: This fix doesn't just silence the warning - it fixes a real problem.
:
: Without this fix, mem_section[] might have 0 size so mem_section[0]
: will share other variable area.  For example, I got:
:
: c030c700 b __warned.16478
: c030c700 B mem_section
: c030c701 b __warned.16483
:
: This might cause very strange behavior.  Your patch actually fixes it.

It was wrong.  (I thought irqs_disabled() is only available when the
architecture has CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT)

Remove the #ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT check to enable

cf23422b9d cpu/mem hotplug: enable CPUs online before local memory online
Enable users to online CPUs even if the CPUs belongs to a numa node which
doesn't have onlined local memory.

The zonlists(pg_data_t.node_zonelists[]) of a numa node are created either
in system boot/init period, or at the time of local memory online.  For a
numa node without onlined local memory, its zonelists are not initialized
at present.  As a result, any memory allocation operations executed by
CPUs within this node will fail.  In fact, an out-of-memory error is
triggered when attempt to online CPUs before memory comes to online.

This patch tries to create zonelists for such numa nodes, so that the
memory allocation for this node can be fallback'ed to other nodes.

not allow the reclaim entry function to set an arbitrary page isolation
callback, we do not need that flexibility.

And since we already pass around the group descriptor for the memory
control group isolation case, just use it to decide which one of the two
isolator functions to use.

The decisions can be merged into nearby branches, so no extra cost there.
In fact, we save the indirect calls.
