Currently we clear kasan_zero_page before __flush_tlb_all(). This
works with current implementation of native_flush_tlb[_global]()
because it doesn't cause do any writes to kasan shadow memory.
But any subtle change made in native_flush_tlb*() could break this.
Also current code seems doesn't work for paravirt guests (lguest).
Only after the TLB flush we can be sure that kasan_zero_page is not
used as early shadow anymore (instrumented code will not write to it).
So it should cleared it only after the TLB flush.

Current implementation of udf_translate_to_linux function does not
support multi-bytes characters at all: it counts bytes while calculating
extension length, when inserting CRC inside the name it doesn't
take into account inter-character boundaries and can break into
the middle of the character.
The most efficient way to properly support multi-bytes characters is
merging of translation operations directly into conversion function.
This can help to avoid extra passes along the string or parsing
the multi-bytes character back into unicode to find out it's length.

Although 'struct ustr' tries to structurize the data by combining
the string and its length, it doesn't actually make much benefit,
since it saves only one parameter, but introduces an extra copying
of the whole buffer, serving as an intermediate storage. It looks
quite inefficient and not actually needed.
This commit gets rid of the struct ustr by changing the parameters
of some functions appropriately.

Code in udf_find_entry() and udf_readdir() used the same buffer for
storing filename that was split among blocks and for the resulting
filename in utf8. This worked because udf_get_filename() first
internally copied the name into a different buffer and only then
performed a conversion into the destination buffer. However we want to
get rid of intermediate buffers so use separate buffer for converted
name and name split between blocks so that we don't have the same source

packet: tpacket gso and csum offload

Patch 1 prepares for this by moving the relevant virtio_net_hdr

GSO transmission requires all headers in the skb linear section.
Patch 3 moves parsing of tx_ring slot headers before skb allocation

Dice interface design doesn't allow drivers to read supported combination
between sampling transfer frequencies and the number of Multi bit linear
audio data channels. Due to the design, ALSA dice driver changes current
sampling transfer frequency to generate cache of the combinations at
device probing processing.
Although, this idea is worse because ALSA dice driver changes the state of
clock. This is not what users want when they save favorite configuration
to the device in advance.
Furthermore, there's a possibility that the format of data block is decided
not only according to current sampling transfer frequency, but also the
other factors, i.e. data format for digital interface. It's not good to
generate channel cache according to the sampling transfer frequency only.
This commit purges processing cache data and related structure members. As
a result, users must set preferable sampling transfer frequency before
using ALSA PCM applications, as long as they want to start any PCM
substreams at the rate except for current one.

ALSA PCM core has a functionality for rule of PCM substream parameters.
Typically, when userspace opens PCM character devices, each driver adds
its own rules to PCM substream according to design of hardware. When the
userspace executes hw_params ioctl with favorite parameters, the actual
parameters are calculated according to the rules and the given parameters.
Then, the result is returned to userspace.
Currently, ALSA Dice driver has the rule between channels and rates, while
Dice interface design doesn't allow drivers to retrieve all of the
combinations. Dice drivers are just allowed to get current sampling
transfer frequency and the number of multi bit linear audio data channels
in an data block of an AMDTP packet.
This commit purges the rule, and limit PCM substreams to current sampling
transfer frequency, following to the interface design.

The hda_jack_tbl entries are managed by snd_array for allowing
multiple jacks. It's good per se, but the problem is that struct
hda_jack_callback keeps the hda_jack_tbl pointer. Since snd_array
doesn't preserve each pointer at resizing the array, we can't keep the
original pointer but have to deduce the pointer at each time via
snd_array_entry() instead. Actually, this resulted in the deference
to the wrong pointer on codecs that have many pins such as CS4208.
This patch replaces the pointer to the NID value as the search key.
As an unexpected good side effect, this even simplifies the code, as
only NID is needed in most cases.

schedstats is very useful during debugging and performance tuning but it
incurs overhead to calculate the stats. As such, even though it can be
disabled at build time, it is often enabled as the information is useful.
This patch adds a kernel command-line and sysctl tunable to enable or
disable schedstats on demand (when it's built in). It is disabled
by default as someone who knows they need it can also learn to enable
it when necessary.
The benefits are dependent on how scheduler-intensive the workload is.
If it is then the patch reduces the number of cycles spent calculating
the stats with a small benefit from reducing the cache footprint of the
scheduler.
These measurements were taken from a 48-core 2-socket
machine with Xeon(R) E5-2670 v3 cpus although they were also tested on a
single socket machine 8-core machine with Intel i7-3770 processors.

In constract, this shows a relatively steady 2-3% gain at higher thread
counts. Due to the nature of the patch and the type of workload, it's
not a surprise that the result will depend on the CPU used.

Small improvement and similar gains were seen on the UMA machine.
The gain is small but it stands to reason that doing less work in the
scheduler is a good thing. The downside is that the lack of schedstats and
tracepoints may be surprising to experts doing performance analysis until
they find the existence of the schedstats= parameter or schedstats sysctl.
It will be automatically activated for latencytop and sleep profiling to
alleviate the problem. For tracepoints, there is a simple warning as it's
not safe to activate schedstats in the context when it's known the tracepoint
may be wanted but is unavailable.

The PCIe controller is found on all Juno SoC version. However it's not
functional on R0 due to some hardware bug.
In preparation to add Juno R2 support, this patch moves the
pcie-controller defination to base DTS file. It's marked as disabled by
default and is enabled for Juno R1 explicitly.

The ARMv8 Foundation model sports a command line parameter to use
a GICv3 emulation instead of the default GICv2 interrupt controller.
Add a new .dts file which reuses most of the definitions of the
existing model while just adding the required properties for the
GICv3 node.
This allows the public Foundation model to run with a GICv3.

The ARMv8 Foundation model can be run with a GICv2 or a GICv3.
To prepare for the GICv3 version of the .dts without code duplication,
move most of the nodes of the existing DT (except the GIC) into an
include file and just keep that include statement and the GIC node in
the current foundation-v8.dts.

The Foundation model GIC mapping is wrong, as the GICC region should
be 8kB instead of 4kB (the model implements the GICv2 architecture).
This defect prevents the driver from switching to EOImode==1.

To prepare the ARM foundation model to support GICv3, we adjust
the #address-cells property of the current GICv2 node to be
compatible with the two cells required for GICv3 later.
