ad537689c3 [SCSI] qla2xxx: Remove qla2x00_wait_for_loop_ready function.
This function can wait for 5min under certain scenarios. One of them is when
the port is down from switch and bus reset is issued. The bus reset used to
wait for 5 minutes for the loop and upper layer callers used to hang and give
stack trace because of getting stuck for 120 sec. It is legacy code that was
used when the driver used to do queuing of the commands.

Adds support for the Cintiq 24HD. There are two quirks about this
model that haven't been seen in prior tablets. First, a second
touch ring is present on this display; it is being exposed via the
ABS_THROTTLE axis. Second, three capacitive buttons at the top of
the unit are available; though physically a touch strip, we report
the use of these buttons with generic KEY_ events.

Synaptics touchpads on several Dell laptops, particularly Vostro V13
systems, may not respond properly to PS/2 commands and queries immediately
after resuming from suspend to RAM. This leads to unresponsive touchpad
after suspend/resume cycle.

Adding a 1-second delay after resetting the device allows touchpad to
finish initializing (calibrating?) and start reacting properly.

f220242af9 rcu: Make rcutorture test for hotpluggability before offlining CPUs
The rcutorture test now can automatically exercise CPU hotplug and
collect success statistics, which can be correlated with other rcutorture
activity.  This permits rcutorture to completely exercise RCU regardless
of what sort of userspace and filesystem layout is in use.  Unfortunately,
rcutorture is happy to attempt to offline CPUs that cannot be offlined,
for example, CPU 0 in both the x86 and ARM architectures.  Although this
allows rcutorture testing to proceed normally, it confounds attempts at
error analysis due to the resulting flood of spurious CPU-hotplug errors.

Therefore, this commit uses the new cpu_is_hotpluggable() function to
avoid attempting to offline CPUs that are not hotpluggable, which in
turn avoids spurious CPU-hotplug errors.

2987557f52 driver-core/cpu: Expose hotpluggability to the rest of the kernel
When architectures register CPUs, they indicate whether the CPU allows
hotplugging; notably, x86 and ARM don't allow hotplugging CPU 0.
Userspace can easily query the hotpluggability of a CPU via sysfs;
however, the kernel has no convenient way of accessing that property in
an architecture-independent way.  While the kernel can simply try it and
see, some code needs to distinguish between "hotplug failed" and
"hotplug has no hope of working on this CPU"; for example, rcutorture's
CPU hotplug tests want to avoid drowning out real hotplug failures with
expected failures.

Expose this property via a new cpu_is_hotpluggable function, so that the
rest of the kernel can access it in an architecture-independent way.

f23f7fa1c8 rcu: Adaptive dyntick-idle preparation
If there are other CPUs active at a given point in time, then there is a
limit to what a given CPU can do to advance the current RCU grace period.
Beyond this limit, attempting to force the RCU grace period forward will
do nothing but consume energy burning CPU cycles.

Therefore, this commit takes an adaptive approach to RCU_FAST_NO_HZ
preparations for idle.  It pushes the RCU core state machine for
two cycles unconditionally, and then it will push from zero to three
additional cycles, but only as long as the RCU core has work for this
CPU to do immediately.  The rcu_pending() function is used to check
whether the RCU core has such work.

dff1672d91 rcu: Keep invoking callbacks if CPU otherwise idle
The rcu_do_batch() function that invokes callbacks for TREE_RCU and
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU normally throttles callback invocation to avoid degrading
scheduling latency.  However, as long as the CPU would otherwise be idle,
there is no downside to continuing to invoke any callbacks that have passed
through their grace periods.  In fact, processing such callbacks in a
timely manner has the benefit of increasing the probability that the
CPU can enter the power-saving dyntick-idle mode.

Therefore, this commit allows callback invocation to continue beyond the
preset limit as long as the scheduler does not have some other task to
run and as long as context is that of the idle task or the relevant
RCU kthread.

7cb9249900 rcu: Permit dyntick-idle with callbacks pending
The current implementation of RCU_FAST_NO_HZ prevents CPUs from entering
dyntick-idle state if they have RCU callbacks pending.  Unfortunately,
this has the side-effect of often preventing them from entering this
state, especially if at least one other CPU is not in dyntick-idle state.
However, the resulting per-tick wakeup is wasteful in many cases: if the
CPU has already fully responded to the current RCU grace period, there
will be nothing for it to do until this grace period ends, which will
frequently take several jiffies.

This commit therefore permits a CPU that has done everything that the
current grace period has asked of it (rcu_pending() == 0) even if it
still as RCU callbacks pending.  However, such a CPU posts a timer to
wake it up several jiffies later (6 jiffies, based on experience with
grace-period lengths).  This wakeup is required to handle situations
that can result in all CPUs being in dyntick-idle mode, thus failing
to ever complete the current grace period.  If a CPU wakes up before
the timer goes off, then it cancels that timer, thus avoiding spurious
wakeups.

c92b131bdc rcu: Remove dynticks false positives and RCU failures
Assertions in rcu_init_percpu_data() unknowingly relied on outgoing
CPUs being turned off before reaching the idle loop.  Unfortunately,
when running under kvm/qemu on x86, CPUs really can get to idle before
begin shut off.  These CPUs are then born in dyntick-idle mode from an
RCU perspective, which results in splats in rcu_init_percpu_data() and
in RCU wrongly ignoring those CPUs despite them being active.  This in
turn can cause RCU to end grace periods prematurely, potentially freeing
up memory that the newly onlined CPUs were still using.  This is most
decidedly not what we need to see in an RCU implementation.

This commit therefore replaces the assertions in rcu_init_percpu_data()
with code that forces RCU's dyntick-idle view of newly onlined CPUs to
match reality.
