aab8f11a6b xen-gntdev: Support mapping in HVM domains
HVM does not allow direct PTE modification, so instead we request
that Xen change its internal p2m mappings on the allocated pages and
map the memory into userspace normally.

Note:
The HVM path for map and unmap is slightly different: HVM keeps the pages
mapped until the area is deleted, while the PV case (use_ptemod being true)
must unmap them when userspace unmaps the range. In the normal use case,
this makes no difference to users since unmap time is deletion time.

68b025c813 xen-gntdev: Add reference counting to maps
This allows userspace to perform mmap() on the gntdev device and then
immediately close the filehandle or remove the mapping using the
remove ioctl, with the mapped area remaining valid until unmapped.
This also fixes an infinite loop when a gntdev device is closed
without first unmapping all areas.

ef91082e90 xen-gntdev: Change page limit to be global instead of per-open
Because there is no limitation on how many times a user can open a
given device file, an per-file-description limit on the number of
pages granted offers little to no benefit. Change to a global limit
and remove the ioctl() as the parameter can now be changed via sysfs.

Xen tools changeset 22768:f8d801e5573e is needed to eliminate the
error this change produces in xc_gnttab_set_max_grants.

e3f24cc521 Btrfs: don't release pages when we can't clear the uptodate bits
Btrfs tracks uptodate state in an rbtree as well as in the
page bits.  This is supposed to enable us to use block sizes other than
the page size, but there are a few parts still missing before that
completely works.

But, our readpage routine trusts this additional range based tracking
of uptodateness, much in the same way the buffer head up to date bits
are trusted for the other filesystems.

The problem is that sometimes we need to allocate memory in order to
split records in the rbtree, even when we are just clearing bits.  This
can be difficult when our clearing function is called GFP_ATOMIC, which
can happen in the releasepage path.

So, what happens today looks like this:

releasepage called with GFP_ATOMIC
btrfs_releasepage calls clear_extent_bit
clear_extent_bit fails to allocate ram, leaving the up to date bit set
btrfs_releasepage returns success

The end result is the page being gone, but btrfs thinking the range is
up to date.   Later on if someone tries to read that same page, the
btrfs readpage code will return immediately thinking the page is already
up to date.

This commit fixes things to fail the releasepage when we can't clear the
extent state bits.  It covers both data pages and metadata tree blocks.

eb14ab8ed2 Btrfs: fix page->private races
There is a race where btrfs_releasepage can drop the
page->private contents just as alloc_extent_buffer is setting
up pages for metadata.  Because of how the Btrfs page flags work,
this results in us skipping the crc on the page during IO.

This patch sovles the race by waiting until after the extent buffer
is inserted into the radix tree before it sets page private.

Fix by jumping backwards to the hook invocation directly instead

54a8c500d5 ALSA: usb-audio: add support for Native Instruments MK2 devices
The MK2 generation of Native Instruments' sound cards are in fact
compliant to the USB audio standard of version 2 and other approved USB
standards. However, they come up as vendor-specific device when first
connected but can be told to come up with a new set of descriptors
upon their next enumeration. The interfaces announced by the new
descriptors will be handled by the kernel's class drivers. This is done
by issuing a vendor specific device request and sending the device to
reset.

There are also some vendor-specific USB requests for some mixer elements
that can't be exported in a standard compliant way. The driver now
supports them with quirks handling mechanisms.

acfdf5c383 nfsd4: acquire only one lease per file
Instead of acquiring one lease each time another client opens a file,
nfsd can acquire just one lease to represent all of them, and reference
count it to determine when to release it.

This fixes a regression introduced by
c45821d263 "locks: eliminate fl_mylease
callback": after that patch, only the struct file * is used to determine
who owns a given lease.  But since we recently converted the server to
share a single struct file per open, if we acquire multiple leases on
the same file from nfsd, it then becomes impossible on unlocking a lease
to determine which of those leases (all of whom share the same struct
file *) we meant to remove.

Thanks to Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> for catching a bug in a previous
version of this patch.

3aa6e0aa8a NFSD: memory corruption due to writing beyond the stat array
If nfsd fails to find an exported via NFS file in the readahead cache, it
should increment corresponding nfsdstats counter (ra_depth[10]), but due to a
bug it may instead write to ra_depth[11], corrupting the following field.

In a kernel with NFSDv4 compiled in the corruption takes the form of an
increment of a counter of the number of NFSv4 operation 0's received; since
there is no operation 0, this is harmless.

In a kernel with NFSDv4 disabled it corrupts whatever happens to be in the
memory beyond nfsdstats.

14392fd329 x86, numa: Add error handling for bad cpu-to-node mappings
CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS may return NUMA_NO_NODE when an
early_cpu_to_node() mapping hasn't been initialized.  In such a
case, it emits a warning and continues without an issue but
callers may try to use the return value to index into an array.

We can catch those errors and fail silently since a warning has
already been emitted.  No current user of numa_add_cpu()
requires this error checking to avoid a crash, but it's better
to be proactive in case a future user happens to have a bug and
a user tries to diagnose it with CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS.

e5fea868e6 x86: Fix and clean up generic_processor_info()
One of the error printouts in generic_processor_info() prints out
the APIC version instead of the cpu index the warning text describes.

Move version validation down, after we get the right cpu index.

-v2: add comments about reason why we can have cpu=0 there.

platforms other than x86_32).
