237c80c5c8 rcu: Fix TREE_PREEMPT_RCU CPU_HOTPLUG bad-luck hang
If the following sequence of events occurs, then
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU will hang waiting for a grace period to
complete, eventually OOMing the system:

o	A TREE_PREEMPT_RCU build of the kernel is booted on a system
	with more than 64 physical CPUs present (32 on a 32-bit system).
	Alternatively, a TREE_PREEMPT_RCU build of the kernel is booted
	with RCU_FANOUT set to a sufficiently small value that the
	physical CPUs populate two or more leaf rcu_node structures.

o	A task is preempted in an RCU read-side critical section
	while running on a CPU corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node
	structure.

o	All CPUs corresponding to this same leaf rcu_node structure
	record quiescent states for the current grace period.

o	All of these same CPUs go offline (hence the need for enough
	physical CPUs to populate more than one leaf rcu_node structure).
	This causes the preempted task to be moved to the root rcu_node
	structure.

At this point, there is nothing left to cause the quiescent
state to be propagated up the rcu_node tree, so the current
grace period never completes.

The simplest fix, especially after considering the deadlock
possibilities, is to detect this situation when the last CPU is
offlined, and to set that CPU's ->qsmask bit in its leaf
rcu_node structure.  This will cause the next invocation of
force_quiescent_state() to end the grace period.

Without this fix, this hang can be triggered in an hour or so on
some machines with rcutorture and random CPU onlining/offlining.
With this fix, these same machines pass a full 10 hours of this
sort of abuse.

As in the commit 9b4a161777, use UPIO_MEM

019129d595 rcu: Stopgap fix for synchronize_rcu_expedited() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
For the short term, map synchronize_rcu_expedited() to
synchronize_rcu() for TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and to
synchronize_sched_expedited() for TREE_RCU.

Longer term, there needs to be a real expedited grace period for
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, but candidate patches to date are considerably
more complex and intrusive.

37c72e56f6 rcu: Prevent RCU IPI storms in presence of high call_rcu() load
As the number of callbacks on a given CPU rises, invoke
force_quiescent_state() only every blimit number of callbacks
(defaults to 10,000), and even then only if no other CPU has
invoked force_quiescent_state() in the meantime.

This should fix the performance regression reported by Nick.

ed79bab847 virtio_net: use dev_kfree_skb_any() in free_old_xmit_skbs()
Because netpoll can call netdevice start_xmit() method with
irqs disabled, drivers should not call kfree_skb() from

Call compat_unimap_ioctl, not do_unimap_ioctl.

This was broken by commit e9216651.

The compat_unimap_ioctl was originally called do_unimap_ioctl in
fs/compat_ioctl.h which got moved to drivers/char/vt_ioctl.c.
In that patch, the caller was not updated and consequently called
the native handler.

a0219fbdac OMAP: Fix race condition with autodeps
There is a possible race condition in clockdomain
code handling hw supported idle transitions.

When multiple autodeps dependencies are being added
or removed, a transition of still remaining dependent
powerdomain can result in false readings of the
state counter. This is especially fatal for off mode
state counter, as it could result in a driver not
noticing a context loss.

Fixed by disabling hw supported state transitions
when autodeps are being changed.

83db93f4de sysfs: Allow sysfs_notify_dirent to be called from interrupt context.
sysfs_notify_dirent is a simple atomic operation that can be used to
alert user-space that new data can be read from a sysfs attribute.

Unfortunately it cannot currently be called from non-process context
because of its use of spin_lock which is sometimes taken with
interrupts enabled.

So change all lockers of sysfs_open_dirent_lock to disable interrupts,
thus making sysfs_notify_dirent safe to be called from non-process
context (as drivers/md does in md_safemode_timeout).

sysfs_get_open_dirent is (documented as being) only called from
process context, so it uses spin_lock_irq.  Other places
use spin_lock_irqsave.

The usage for sysfs_notify_dirent in md_safemode_timeout was
introduced in 2.6.28, so this patch is suitable for that and more
recent kernels.

97ad5a034d tty: use the new 'flush_delayed_work()' helper to do ldisc flush
This way all flush_to_ldisc work is always done through the workqueues,
and we thus have a single point of serialization.  It also means that we
can avoid calling flush_to_ldisc() entirely if there was no delayed work
pending.

[ Side note: using workqueues and keventd as the single way to enter
  flush_to_ldisc() still doesn't absolutely guarantee that we can't have
  concurrency: keventd is multithreaded and has a thread per CPU, and
  while the WORK_STRUCT_PENDING bit guarantees a single work only being
  on the pending list once, the work might be both pending and _running_
  at the same time. Workqueues are not simple. ]

This was also confirmed to fix bugzilla #14388, even without the earlier
locking fix and cleanup (commit c8e331419: "tty: Make flush_to_ldisc()
locking more robust").  So both commits fix the same bug differently,
and either would have worked on its own.  But I'm committing them both
since they are cleanups independent of each other.

8c53e46314 workqueue: add 'flush_delayed_work()' to run and wait for delayed work
It basically turns a delayed work into an immediate work, and then waits
for it to finish, thus allowing you to force (and wait for) an immediate
flush of a delayed work.

We'll want to use this in the tty layer to clean up tty_flush_to_ldisc().

37ccd92f55 net/fec_mpc52xx: Fix kernel panic on FEC error
The MDIO bus cannot be accessed at interrupt context, but on an FEC
error, the fec_mpc52xx driver reset function also tries to reset the
PHY.  Since the error is detected at IRQ context, and the PHY functions
try to sleep, the kernel ends up panicking.

Resetting the PHY on an FEC error isn't even necessary.  This patch
solves the problem by removing the PHY reset entirely.

c8e3314191 tty: Make flush_to_ldisc() locking more robust
The locking logic in this function is extremely subtle, and it broke
when we started doing potentially concurrent 'flush_to_ldisc()' calls in
commit e043e42bdb ("pty: avoid forcing
'low_latency' tty flag").

The code in flush_to_ldisc() used to set 'tty->buf.head' to NULL, with
the intention that this would then cause any other concurrent calls to
not do anything (locking note: we have to drop the buf.lock over the
call to ->receive_buf that can block, which is why we can have
concurrency here at all in the first place).

It also used to set the TTY_FLUSHING bit, which would then cause any
concurrent 'tty_buffer_flush()' to not free all the tty buffers and
clear 'tty->buf.tail'.  And with 'buf.head' being NULL, and 'buf.tail'
being non-NULL, new data would never touch 'buf.head'.

Does that sound a bit too subtle? It was.  If another concurrent call to
'flush_to_ldisc()' were to come in, the NULL buf.head would indeed cause
it to not process the buffer list, but it would still clear TTY_FLUSHING
afterwards, making the buffer protection against 'tty_buffer_flush()' no
longer work.

So this clears it all up.  We depend purely on TTY_FLUSHING for handling
re-entrancy, and stop playing games with the buffer list entirely.  In
fact, the buffer list handling is now robust enough that we could
probably stop doing the whole "protect against 'tty_buffer_flush()'"
thing entirely.

However, Alan also points out that we would probably be better off
simplifying the locking even further, and just take the tty ldisc_mutex
around all the buffer flushing calls.  That seems like a good idea, but
in the meantime this is a conceptually minimal fix (with the patch
itself being bigger than required just to clean the code up and make it
readable).

This fixes keyboard trouble under X:

b8430e1b82 usb-storage: Workaround devices with bogus sense size
usb-storage: Workaround devices with bogus sense size

Some devices, such as Huawei E169, advertise more than the standard
amount of sense data, causing us to set US_FL_SANE_SENSE, assuming
they support it. However, they subsequently fail the request sense
with that size.

This works around it generically. When a sense request fails due to
a device returning an error, US_FL_SANE_SENSE was set, and that sense
request used a larger sense size, we retry with a smaller size before
giving up.
