I noticed that the logic in the fadvise64_64 syscall is incorrect for
partial pages. While first page of the region is correctly skipped if
it is partial, the last page of the region is mistakenly discarded.
This leads to problems for applications that read data in
non-page-aligned chunks discarding already processed data between the
reads.
A somewhat misguided application that does something like write(XX bytes
(non-page-alligned)); drop the data it just wrote; repeat gets a
significant penalty in performance as a result.

Christian Borntraeger reported a kernel panic after corrupt page counts,
and it turned out to be a regression introduced with commit aa88b68c3b
("thp: keep huge zero page pinned until tlb flush"), at least on s390.
put_huge_zero_page() was moved over from zap_huge_pmd() to
release_pages(), and it was replaced by tlb_remove_page(). However,
release_pages() might not always be triggered by (the arch-specific)
tlb_remove_page().
On s390 we call free_page_and_swap_cache() from tlb_remove_page(), and
not tlb_flush_mmu() -> free_pages_and_swap_cache() like the generic
version, because we don't use the MMU-gather logic. Although both
functions have very similar names, they are doing very unsimilar things,
in particular free_page_xxx is just doing a put_page(), while
free_pages_xxx calls release_pages().
This of course results in very harmful put_page()s on the huge zero
page, on architectures where tlb_remove_page() is implemented in this
way. It seems to affect only s390 and sh, but sh doesn't have THP
support, so the problem (currently) probably only exists on s390.
The following quick hack fixed the issue:

When creating a private mapping of a hugetlbfs file, it is possible to
unmap pages via ftruncate or fallocate hole punch. If subsequent faults
repopulate these mappings, the reserve counts will go negative. This is
because the code currently assumes all faults to private mappings will
consume reserves. The problem can be recreated as follows:
- mmap(MAP_PRIVATE) a file in hugetlbfs filesystem
- write fault in pages in the mapping
- fallocate(FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE) some pages in the mapping
- write fault in pages in the hole
This will result in negative huge page reserve counts and negative
subpool usage counts for the hugetlbfs. Note that this can also be
recreated with ftruncate, but fallocate is more straight forward.
This patch modifies the routines vma_needs_reserves and vma_has_reserves
to examine the reserve map associated with private mappings similar to
that for shared mappings. However, the reserve map semantics for
private and shared mappings are very different. This results in subtly
different code that is explained in the comments.

net: better lockdep annotations
Introduction of qdisc->running seqcount added lockdep false positives.
While chasing the bug, it came to me that we had a lot of copies of the
same stuff in virtual drivers.
This patch series has the qdisc->running fix (considers that a trylock
is attempted in lockdep terminology), and adds a generic helper so
that we no longer have to patch many virtual drivers when a new per-device
or per-qdisc lock is added.
Thanks to David Ahern for reporting the issue and testing my patches :)

Many Intel systems the BIOS declares a SystemIO OpRegion below the SMBus
PCI device as can be seen in ACPI DSDT table from Lenovo Yoga 900:
Device (SBUS)
{
OperationRegion (SMBI, SystemIO, (SBAR << 0x05), 0x10)
Field (SMBI, ByteAcc, NoLock, Preserve)
{
HSTS, 8,
Offset (0x02),
HCON, 8,
HCOM, 8,
TXSA, 8,
DAT0, 8,
DAT1, 8,
HBDR, 8,
PECR, 8,
RXSA, 8,
SDAT, 16
}
There are also bunch of AML methods that that the BIOS can use to access
these fields. Most of the systems in question AML methods accessing the
SMBI OpRegion are never used.
Now, because of this SMBI OpRegion many systems fail to load the SMBus
driver with an error looking like one below:
ACPI Warning: SystemIO range 0x0000000000003040-0x000000000000305F
conflicts with OpRegion 0x0000000000003040-0x000000000000304F
(\_SB.PCI0.SBUS.SMBI) (20160108/utaddress-255)
ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
it instead of the native driver
The reason is that this SMBI OpRegion conflicts with the PCI BAR used by
the SMBus driver.
It turns out that we can install a custom SystemIO address space handler
for the SMBus device to intercept all accesses through that OpRegion. This
allows us to share the PCI BAR with the AML code if it for some reason is
using it. We do not expect that this OpRegion handler will ever be called
but if it is we print a warning and prevent all access from the SMBus
driver itself.

The function is unflattening device sub-tree blob if @dad passed to
the function is valid. Currently, this functionality is used by PPC
PowerNV PCI hotplug driver only. There are possibly multiple nodes
in the first level of depth, fdt_next_node() bails immediately when
@depth becomes negative before the second device node can be probed
successfully. It leads to the device nodes except the first one won't
be unflattened successfully.
This fixes the issue by setting the initial depth (@inital_depth) to
1 when this function is called to unflatten device sub-tree blob. No
logic changes when this function is used to unflatten non-sub-tree
blob.

Core disables all connections for bundles whose interface is already
gone in order to avoid unnecessary operation timeouts during driver
disconnect.
This isn't needed for offloaded connections (as the AP can not send
requests over such connections), and in fact must not be done since only
the bundle driver currently knows how to disable I/O on such connections
in a class-specific way (this may eventually be handled by core though).
Also add comment about why connection are disabled early on forced

Every trace event currently defined for Greybus is recorded in a

in which the event was recorded.
Get rid of the "greybus: " prefix in all of the Greybus trace

helpful. Anyone actually enabling individual trace events should
know enough about what they're doing to recognize which ones
are being enabled.

I'm hitting 5 second timeout in rndis_filter_set_rss_param() while setting
RSS parameters for the device. When this happens we end up returning
-ETIMEDOUT from the function and rndis_filter_device_add() falls back to
setting
net_device->max_chn = 1;
net_device->num_chn = 1;
net_device->num_sc_offered = 0;
but after a moment the rndis request succeeds and subchannels start to
appear. netvsc_sc_open() does unconditional nvscdev->num_sc_offered-- and
it becomes U32_MAX-1. Consequent rndis_filter_device_remove() will hang
while waiting for all U32_MAX-1 subchannels to appear and this is not
going to happen.
The immediate issue could be solved by adding num_sc_offered > 0 check to
netvsc_sc_open() but we're getting out of sync with the host and it's not
easy to adjust things later, e.g. in this particular case we'll be creating
queues without a user request for it and races are expected. Same applies
to other parts of the driver which have the same completion timeout.
Following the trend in drivers/hv/* code I suggest we remove all these
timeouts completely. As a guest we can always trust the host we're running
on and if the host screws things up there is no easy way to recover anyway.

When rtnl_fill_ifinfo() is called for a certain netdevice it queries its
various parameters such as switch id and physical port name. The
function might get called in an atomic context, which means the
underlying driver must not sleep during the query operation.
Don't query the device and sleep during ndo_get_phys_port_name(), but
instead store the needed parameters in port creation time.

When a port is created following a split / unsplit we need to map it to
the correct module and lane, enable it and then continue to initialize
its various parameters such as MTU and VLAN filters.
Under certain conditions, such as trying to split ports at the bottom
row of the front panel by four, we get firmware errors.
After evaluating this with the firmware team it was decided to alter the
split / unsplit flow, so that first all the affected ports are mapped,
then enabled and finally each is initialized separately.
Fix the split / unsplit flow by first mapping and enabling all the
affected ports. Newer firmware versions will support both flows.

Multiple devices from the ADAU family share the same PLL structure and
configuration register layout. Introduce a new helper module that can be
used to calculated the PLL configuration registers based on a specified
input frequency and the desired output frequency of the PLL.
The ADAU1761/ADAU1781 and ADAU1373 drivers are updated to make use of this
new helper module. But future drivers for additional devices from the ADAU
family are also expected to make use of it.
In anticipation of sharing more infrastructure code between different
devices from the ADAU family the new module is called adau-utils.

Currently pmd_mknotpresent will use a zero entry to respresent an
invalidated pmd.
Unfortunately this definition clashes with pmd_none, thus it is
possible for a race condition to occur if zap_pmd_range sees pmd_none
whilst __split_huge_pmd_locked is running too with pmdp_invalidate
just called.
This patch fixes the race condition by modifying pmd_mknotpresent to
create non-zero faulting entries (as is done in other architectures),
removing the ambiguity with pmd_none.

In a subsequent patch, pmd_mknotpresent will clear the valid bit of the
pmd entry, resulting in a not-present entry from the hardware's
perspective. Unfortunately, pmd_present simply checks for a non-zero pmd
value and will therefore continue to return true even after a
pmd_mknotpresent operation. Since pmd_mknotpresent is only used for
managing huge entries, this is only an issue for the 3-level case.
This patch fixes the 3-level pmd_present implementation to take into
account the valid bit. For bisectability, the change is made before the
fix to pmd_mknotpresent.

New device support
* ads1015
- add ads1115 support
* bma220 accelerometer
- new driver
- triggered buffer support.
* bmc150
- add bmm150 support.
* bmp280
- bme280 support with addition of humidity channel.
* max5487 potentiometer
- new driver
* MMA7660FC accelerometer.
- New driver
* st-pressure
- support for the lps22hb
* loop trigger.
- This one is *nasty* but we have real applications (parrot drones) where
it is useful. The trigger basically spins as hard as it can firing off
a new trigger each time all triggered devices come back to say they are
done. It doesn't hang a machine even when doing it on a dummy driver.
A lot nicer than having this implemented within lots of device drivers
anyway.
Core stuff
* Add support to create IIO devices via configfs (similar to we did for
triggers a while back) + docs.
* New channel types
- IIO_ELECTRICAL_CONDUCTIVITY
* Couple of MAINTAINERS patches to list the device tree bindings.
* Make trigger ops structure non optional (comment fix). It hasn't been for
an awful long time, but that's not what the description said.
New features
* ak8975
- support adapters that are limited to byte data only by allowing the
emulated block read i2c function that was recently introduced.
* atlas-ph
- support atlas-ec (electrical conductivity sensor)
* bmi160
- add available frequency and scale attributes to make the driver
more user friendly (and avoid having to read the datasheet to know
what will work).
* dummy
- move creation to configfs interface. It's not real hardware so we
are not that worried about the ABI breakage ;)
* mma8452
- oversampling ration support
* nau7802
- expose available gains to make life easier for userspace.
* st-sensors
- allow use of emulation for SMBus block reads as all the st parts support
it.
* ti-ads1015
- list datasheet names to allow their use by inkernel consumers.
* Various module alias additions to help auto probing. Drop one redundant one
as well.
Cleanups
* ad7266, ad7476, ad7887, ad7923, ad799x
- use direct mode claim function rather than open coding it during sensor
read (prevents switching on buffers mid read).
* ad7793, ad7791
- use direct mode claim to prevent frequency changes when buffers running.
* afe440x - These are ABI breaking but the driver requires custom userspace
code to do anything useful anyway and that is still being written and under
control of TI. Ultimately we may have other libraries to do pulse
oximetry with these devices but we aren't aware of any yet.
- kernel-doc format fixes
- drop ifdef fun around of_match_ptr - it's not worth the mess to save
a tiny amount of space.
- drop some unnecessary register initializations.
- drop the weird locked gain modes as they gain us nothing (can just set
all gains separately).
- remove handling of offset attributes seeing as no channels actually have
them (oops)
- Drop the LED3 input channel as it's an alias for ALED2.
- *big one* remove channel names - an experiment that turned out to not
make sense - see patch for details.
- use regmap fields to clean up code.
- tie the tia gain stages to appropriate channels in the ABI as that is
what they really effect. Same with the LED currents.
- cleanout some unused defines and fix a missnamed one.
* atlas-ph
- reorganise to allow support of other similar parts.
* bmc150
- document supported chips in kconfig help.
* jsa1212
- drop an unneeded i2c functionality check for functionality the driver
doesn't use.
* mxs-lradc
- simply touch screen registration code.
- remove the touch screen unregister as all devm based now.
- disable only those channels that are masked in hardware stop (others
are already dealt with elsewhere)
* st-sensors
- unexport st_sensors_get_buffer_element as nothing outside the st-sensors
core driver uses it.
- fix handling of failure to start up regulators.
* tpl0102
- drop an i2c functionality test for features that aren't needed.
* ti-am335x
- use variable name rather than type in sizeof for clarity.
- use SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS helper macro to tidy up a bit.
Tools
* Add install / uninstall to makefile. Someone cares, so presumably
some people will find it useful!
* generic_buffer
- rename to iio_generic_buffer to line up with other tools.
- handle cleanup when receiving signals
- Add a --device-num option and a --trigger-num option rather than
relying on naming which doesn't work if you have two of the same part.

The old implementation was overcomplicated and slightly bugged in some
corner cases.
Consider following state of BSS-es (limited to 6 for simplification):
drvr->iflist[0]: { bsscfgidx:0, ndev->name:wlan1, }
drvr->iflist[1]: (null)
drvr->iflist[2]: { bsscfgidx:2, ndev->name:wlan1-1, }
drvr->iflist[3]: { bsscfgidx:3, ndev->name:wlan1-2, }
drvr->iflist[4]: (null)
drvr->iflist[5]: (null)
In such case the next AP interface should bsscfgidx 4 (we don't use 1 as
it's reserved for P2P).
With old code the loop iterations were following:
[ifidx = 0] [bsscfgidx = 2] [highest = 2]
[ifidx = 1] [bsscfgidx = 2] [highest = 2] available = true
[ifidx = 2] [bsscfgidx = 2] [highest = 2] bsscfgidx = highest + 1
[ifidx = 3] [bsscfgidx = 3] [highest = 2] bsscfgidx = highest + 1
[ifidx = 4] [bsscfgidx = 3] [highest = 2] available = true
[ifidx = 5] [bsscfgidx = 3] [highest = 2] available = true
There were 2 obvious problems:
1) Having empty BSS at index 1 was resulting in available being always
set to true, even if we would run out of BSS-es.
2) Calculated bsscfgidx was invalid (3 instead of 4) resulting in driver
not being able to create the 4th AP interface.
New code is simpler, placed in file where it's really used, handles
running out of free BSS-es and allows using 4 interfaces at the same
time. It also looks for the first free BSS instead of one after the last
in use. It works well with current driver (which doesn't allow deleting
interfaces) and should be future proof (if we ever allow deleting).
