The current SPI code attempts to use bus_lock_mutex for two purposes. One
is to implement spi_bus_lock() which grants exclusive access to the bus.
The other is to serialize access to the physical hardware. This duplicate
purpose causes confusion which leads to cases where access is not locked
when a caller holds the bus lock mutex. Fix this by splitting out the I/O
functionality into a new io_mutex.
This means taking both mutexes in the DMA path, replacing the existing
mutex with the new I/O one in the message pump (the mutex now always
being taken in the message pump) and taking the bus lock mutex in
spi_sync(), allowing __spi_sync() to have no mutex handling.
While we're at it hoist the mutex further up the message pump before we
power up the device so that all power up/down of the block is covered by
it and there are no races with in-line pumping of messages.

IOCTL_EVTCHN_RESTRICT limits the file descriptor to being able to bind
to interdomain event channels from a specific domain. Event channels
that are already bound continue to work for sending and receiving
notifications.
This is useful as part of deprivileging a user space PV backend or
device model (QEMU). e.g., Once the device model as bound to the
ioreq server event channels it can restrict the file handle so an
exploited DM cannot use it to create or bind to arbitrary event
channels.

Certain Hynix eMMC 4.41 cards might get broken when HPI feature is used

Controllers use data strobe line to latch data from devices
under hs400 mode, but not for cmd line. So since emmc 5.1, JEDEC
introduces enhanced strobe mode for latching cmd response from
emmc devices to host controllers. This new feature is optional,
so it depends both on device's cap and host's cap to decide
whether to use it or not.

The EC_CMD_PWM_{GET,SET}_DUTY commands allow us to control a PWM that is
attached to the EC, rather than the main host SoC. The API provides
functionality-based (e.g., keyboard light, backlight) or index-based
addressing of the PWM(s). Duty cycles are represented by a 16-bit value,
where 0 maps to 0% duty cycle and U16_MAX maps to 100%. The period
cannot be controlled.
This command set is more generic than, e.g.,
EC_CMD_PWM_{GET,SET}_KEYBOARD_BACKLIGHT and could possibly used to
replace it on future products.
Let's update the command header to include the definitions.

Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next,
they are:
1) Count pre-established connections as active in "least connection"
schedulers such that pre-established connections to avoid overloading
backend servers on peak demands, from Michal Kubecek via Simon Horman.
2) Address a race condition when resizing the conntrack table by caching
the bucket size when fulling iterating over the hashtable in these
three possible scenarios: 1) dump via /proc/net/nf_conntrack,
2) unlinking userspace helper and 3) unlinking custom conntrack timeout.
From Liping Zhang.
3) Revisit early_drop() path to perform lockless traversal on conntrack
eviction under stress, use del_timer() as synchronization point to
avoid two CPUs evicting the same entry, from Florian Westphal.
4) Move NAT hlist_head to nf_conn object, this simplifies the existing
NAT extension and it doesn't increase size since recent patches to
align nf_conn, from Florian.
5) Use rhashtable for the by-source NAT hashtable, also from Florian.
6) Don't allow --physdev-is-out from OUTPUT chain, just like
--physdev-out is not either, from Hangbin Liu.
7) Automagically set on nf_conntrack counters if the user tries to
match ct bytes/packets from nftables, from Liping Zhang.
8) Remove possible_net_t fields in nf_tables set objects since we just
simply pass the net pointer to the backend set type implementations.
9) Fix possible off-by-one in h323, from Toby DiPasquale.
10) early_drop() may be called from ctnetlink patch, so we must hold
rcu read size lock from them too, this amends Florian's patch #3
coming in this batch, from Liping Zhang.
11) Use binary search to validate jump offset in x_tables, this
addresses the O(n!) validation that was introduced recently
resolve security issues with unpriviledge namespaces, from Florian.
12) Fix reference leak to connlabel in error path of nft_ct, from Zhang.
13) Three updates for nft_log: Fix log prefix leak in error path. Bail
out on loglevel larger than debug in nft_log and set on the new
NF_LOG_F_COPY_LEN flag when snaplen is specified. Again from Zhang.
14) Allow to filter rule dumps in nf_tables based on table and chain
names.
15) Simplify connlabel to always use 128 bits to store labels and
get rid of unused function in xt_connlabel, from Florian.
16) Replace set_expect_timeout() by mod_timer() from the h323 conntrack
helper, by Gao Feng.
17) Put back x_tables module reference in nft_compat on error, from
Liping Zhang.
18) Add a reference count to the x_tables extensions cache in
nft_compat, so we can remove them when unused and avoid a crash
if the extensions are rmmod, again from Zhang.

of nasty outcomes when inodes are transitioned from the unlinked state
to the free state. Small file systems are particularly vulnerable to these
problems, and it can manifest as mainly hangs, but also file system
corruption. The patches have been tested for literally many weeks, with a
very gruelling test, so I have a high level of confidence.
- Andreas Gruenbacher wrote a series of 5 patches for various lockups
during the transition of inodes from unlinked to free. The main patch
is titled "Fix gfs2_lookup_by_inum lock inversion" and the other 4 are
support and cleanup patches related to that.
- Ben Marzinski contributed 2 patches with regard to a recreatable
problem when gfs2 tries to write a page to a file that is being
truncated, resulting in a BUG() in gfs2_remove_from_journal.
Note that Ben had to export vfs function __block_write_full_page to get
this to work properly. It's been posted a long time and he talked to
various VFS people about it, and nobody seemed to mind.
- I contributed 3 patches. (1) The first one fixes a memory corruptor:
a race in which one process can overwrite the gl_object pointer set by
another process, causing kernel panic and other symptoms. (2) The second
patch fixes another race that resulted in a false-positive BUG_ON. This
occurred when resource group reservations were freed by one process
while another process was trying to grab a new reservation in the same
resource group. (3) The third patch fixes a problem with doing journal
replay when the journals are not all the same size.

literally many weeks, with a very gruelling test, so I have a high
level of confidence.
- Andreas Gruenbacher wrote a series of five patches for various
lockups during the transition of inodes from unlinked to free.
The main patch is titled "Fix gfs2_lookup_by_inum lock inversion"
and the other four are support and cleanup patches related to that.
- Ben Marzinski contributed two patches with regard to a recreatable
problem when gfs2 tries to write a page to a file that is being
truncated, resulting in a BUG() in gfs2_remove_from_journal.
Note that Ben had to export vfs function __block_write_full_page to
get this to work properly. It's been posted a long time and he
talked to various VFS people about it, and nobody seemed to mind.
- I contributed 3 patches:
o The first one fixes a memory corruptor: a race in which one
process can overwrite the gl_object pointer set by another
process, causing kernel panic and other symptoms.
o The second patch fixes another race that resulted in a
false-positive BUG_ON. This occurred when resource group
reservations were freed by one process while another process
was trying to grab a new reservation in the same resource
group.
o The third patch fixes a problem with doing journal replay when
the journals are not all the same size"

Normally, an ARS (Address Range Scrub) only happens at
boot/initialization time. There can however arise situations where a
bus-wide rescan is needed - notably, in the case of discovering a latent
media error, we should do a full rescan to figure out what other sectors
are bad, and thus potentially avoid triggering an mce on them in the
future. Also provide a sysfs trigger to start a bus-wide scrub.

Sphinx can't handle well typedefs. Change two typedef
occurrences, in order to cleanup some of such warnings.

Several functions weren't documented. Document them all.
While here, makes checkpatch.pl happy.
