02b51df1b0 proc connector: add event for process becoming session leader
The act of a process becoming a session leader is a useful signal to a
supervising init daemon such as Upstart.

While a daemon will normally do this as part of the process of becoming a
daemon, it is rare for its children to do so.  When the children do, it is
nearly always a sign that the child should be considered detached from the
parent and not supervised along with it.

The poster-child example is OpenSSH; the per-login children call setsid()
so that they may control the pty connected to them.  If the primary daemon
dies or is restarted, we do not want to consider the per-login children
and want to respawn the primary daemon without killing the children.

This patch adds a new PROC_SID_EVENT and associated structure to the
proc_event event_data union, it arranges for this to be emitted when the
special PIDTYPE_SID pid is set.

912e837aef dme1737: Keep index within pwm_config[]
The static code scanner "Parfait" reported this because pwm_config is
only 3 bytes - pwm_config[3] is out of range.

Since this code path is never called with ix == 3 (the device has no PWM4
output) this doesn't change anything in practice.  But to encourage
testing with Parfait, lets make the warning go away...

54fdade1c3 generic-ipi: make struct call_function_data lockless
This patch can remove spinlock from struct call_function_data, the
reasons are below:

1: add a new interface for cpumask named cpumask_test_and_clear_cpu(),
   it can atomically test and clear specific cpu, we can use it instead
   of cpumask_test_cpu() and cpumask_clear_cpu() and no need data->lock
   to protect those in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt().

2: in smp_call_function_many(), after csd_lock() return, the current's
   cfd_data is deleted from call_function list, so it not have race
   between other cpus, then cfs_data is only used in
   smp_call_function_many() that must disable preemption and not from
   a hardware interrupthandler or from a bottom half handler to call,
   only the correspond cpu can use it, so it not have race in current
   cpu, no need cfs_data->lock to protect it.

3: after 1 and 2, cfs_data->lock is only use to protect cfs_data->refs in
   generic_smp_call_function_interrupt(), so we can define cfs_data->refs
   to atomic_t, and no need cfs_data->lock any more.

c02e3f361c kmod: fix race in usermodehelper code
The user mode helper code has a race in it.  call_usermodehelper_exec()
takes an allocated subprocess_info structure, which it passes to a
workqueue, and then passes it to a kernel thread which it creates, after
which it calls complete to signal to the caller of
call_usermodehelper_exec() that it can free the subprocess_info struct.

But since we use that structure in the created thread, we can't call
complete from __call_usermodehelper(), which is where we create the kernel
thread.  We need to call complete() from within the kernel thread and then
not use subprocess_info afterward in the case of UMH_WAIT_EXEC.  Tested
successfully by me.

af91322ef3 printk: add printk_delay to make messages readable for some scenarios
When syslog is not possible, at the same time there's no serial/net
console available, it will be hard to read the printk messages.  For
example oops/panic/warning messages in shutdown phase.

Add a printk delay feature, we can make each printk message delay some
milliseconds.

Setting the delay by proc/sysctl interface: /proc/sys/kernel/printk_delay

The value range from 0 - 10000, default value is 0

5ae87e79ec poll/select: avoid arithmetic overflow in __estimate_accuracy()
__estimate_accuracy() was prone to integer overflow, for example if *tv ==
{2147, 483648000} on a 32 bit computer (or even for delays as small as
{429, 500000000} if the task is niced).

Because the result was already forced between 0 and 100ms, the effect of
the overflow was not too problematic, but the use of the hrtimer range
feature was not optimal in overflow cases.

This patch ensures that there can not be an integer overflow in this
function.

On resume from suspend, the driver currently resets the logical state as
if it was brought up from halt.  This patch uses the
dev_pm_ops.resume/restore methods to synchronize the hardware with the
memorized logical state, in effect bringing back the accelerometer and
backlight to the state prior to suspend.  Works for both suspend to ram
and hibernation.  The patch has zero effect on the running state.

77f5b10a82 checkpatch: make -f alias --file, add --help, more verbose help message
Impact:
  - More verbose help/usage message.
  - Make the option -f an alias for --file.
  - On -h, --help, and --version display help message and exit(0).
  - With no FILE(s) given, exit(1) with "no input files".
  - On invalid options display help/usage and exit(1).

Based on a patch by Pavel Machek.

113f04a836 checkpatch: handle C99 comments correctly (performance issue)
This fixes the sanitation process in checkpatch.pl so that it blocks out
the text after a C99 style comment the same way it does with block style
comments.  This prevents the text from getting processed as regular code.

45b588d6e5 flex_array: introduce DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAY
FLEX_ARRAY_INIT(element_size, total_nr_elements) cannot determine if
either parameter is valid, so flex arrays which are statically allocated
with this interface can easily become corrupted or reference beyond its
allocated memory.

This removes FLEX_ARRAY_INIT() as a struct flex_array initializer since no
initializer may perform the required checking.  Instead, the array is now
defined with a new interface:

	DEFINE_FLEX_ARRAY(name, element_size, total_nr_elements)

This may be prefixed with `static' for file scope.

This interface includes compile-time checking of the parameters to ensure
they are valid.  Since the validity of both element_size and
total_nr_elements depend on FLEX_ARRAY_BASE_SIZE and FLEX_ARRAY_PART_SIZE,
the kernel build will fail if either of these predefined values changes
such that the array parameters are no longer valid.

Since BUILD_BUG_ON() requires compile time constants, several of the
static inline functions that were once local to lib/flex_array.c had to be
moved to include/linux/flex_array.h.

4af5a2f770 flex_array: add flex_array_shrink function
Add a new function to the flex_array API:

	int flex_array_shrink(struct flex_array *fa)

This function will free all unused second-level pages.  Since elements are
now poisoned if they are not allocated with __GFP_ZERO, it's possible to
identify parts that consist solely of unused elements.

flex_array_shrink() returns the number of pages freed.

19da3dd157 flex_array: poison free elements
Newly initialized flex_array's and/or flex_array_part's are now poisoned
with a new poison value, FLEX_ARRAY_FREE.  It's value is similar to
POISON_FREE used in the various slab allocators, but is different to
distinguish between flex array's poisoned kmem and slab allocator poisoned
kmem.

This will allow us to identify flex_array_part's that only contain free
elements (and free them with an addition to the flex_array API).  This
could also be extended in the future to identify `get' uses on elements
that have not been `put'.

If __GFP_ZERO is passed for a part's gfp mask, the poisoning is avoided.
These elements are considered to be in-use since they have been
initialized.

e6de3988aa flex_array: add flex_array_clear function
Add a new function to the flex_array API:

	int flex_array_clear(struct flex_array *fa,
				unsigned int element_nr)

This function will zero the element at element_nr in the flex_array.

Although this is equivalent to using flex_array_put() and passing a
pointer to zero'd memory, flex_array_clear() does not require such a
pointer to memory that would most likely need to be allocated on the
caller's stack which could be significantly large depending on
element_size.

b781655a6f scripts/get_maintainer.pl: add maintainers in order listed in matched section
Previous behavior was "bottom-up" in each section from the pattern "F:"
entry that matched.  Now information is entered into the various lists in
the "as entered" order for each matched section.

This also allows the F: entry to be put anywhere in a section, not just as
the last entries in the section.

And a couple of improvements:

Don't alphabetically sort before outputting the matched scm, status,
subsystem and web sections.

Ignore content after a single email address so these entries are acceptable
M:	name <address> whatever other comment

And a fix:

Make an M: entry without a name again use the name from an immediately
preceding P: line if it exists.
