123877b80e iwlwifi: do not set the sequence control bit is not needed
Check the IEEE80211_TX_CTL_ASSIGN_SEQ flag from mac80211, then decide how to
set the TX_CMD_FLG_SEQ_CTL_MSK bit. Setting the wrong bit in BAR frame whill
make the firmware to increment the sequence number which is incorrect and
cause unknown behavior.

0c8551e5fa ARM: OMAP: mcbsp: Fix possible memory corruption
Commits 09d28d ("ARM: OMAP: mcbsp: Start generalize omap2_mcbsp_set_clks_src")
and 7bc0c4 ("ARM: OMAP: mcbsp: Start generalize signal muxing functions")
incorrectly set two struct omap_mcbsp_platform_data fields after
omap_device_build_ss and kfree calls.

Fix this by moving these pdata assignments before those calls.

4b5d8da88e Revert "[media] af9015: limit I2C access to keep FW happy"
This reverts commit ff83bd82cb.

As requested by Antti:
From a talk with him at #linuxtv irc, he strong feeling that some apps
like MythTV will do a lot a lot of I2C I/O and now it adds locks,
with utimatelly means more delays. This could cause bad effects.

There is a new patch for 3.3 that re-writes af9013 in order to limit
I2C I/O. and thus those patches could be nice to have together
because those user who has has problems are most likely MythTV users.

So, let's revert this commit for now.

b4611abfa9 ext4: Fix crash due to getting bogus eh_depth value on big-endian systems
Commit 1939dd84b3 ("ext4: cleanup ext4_ext_grow_indepth code") added a
reference to ext4_extent_header.eh_depth, but forget to pass the value
read through le16_to_cpu.  The result is a crash on big-endian
machines, such as this crash on a POWER7 server:

This is due to getting ext_depth(inode) == 0x101 and therefore running
off the end of the path array in ext4_ext_drop_refs into following
unallocated structures.

This fixes it by adding the necessary le16_to_cpu.

b302545744 block/swim3: Locking fixes
The old PowerMac swim3 driver has some "interesting" locking issues,
using a private lock and failing to lock the queue before completing
requests, which triggered WARN_ONs among others.

This rips out the private lock, makes everything operate under the
block queue lock, and generally makes things simpler.

We used to also share a queue between the two possible instances which
was problematic since we might pick the wrong controller in some cases,
so make the queue and the current request per-instance and use
queuedata to point to our private data which is a lot cleaner.

We still share the queue lock but then, it's nearly impossible to actually
use 2 swim3's simultaneously: one would need to have a Wallstreet
PowerBook, the only machine afaik with two of these on the motherboard,
and populate both hotswap bays with a floppy drive (the machine ships
only with one), so nobody cares...

While at it, add a little fix to clear up stale interrupts when loading
the driver or plugging a floppy drive in a bay.

317df650c5 perf script: Implement option for system-wide profiling
The option is documented in man perf-script but was not yet implemented:

       -a
           Force system-wide collection. Scripts run without a
           <command> normally use -a by default, while scripts run
           with a <command> normally don't - this option allows the
           latter to be run in system-wide mode.

As with perf record you now can profile in system-wide mode for the
runtime of a given command, e.g.:

 # perf script -a syscall-counts sleep 2

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

4f89b336fd rcu: Apply ACCESS_ONCE() to rcu_boost() return value
Both TINY_RCU's and TREE_RCU's implementations of rcu_boost() access
the ->boost_tasks and ->exp_tasks fields without preventing concurrent
changes to these fields.  This commit therefore applies ACCESS_ONCE in
order to prevent compiler mischief.

70321d447a Revert "rcu: Permit rt_mutex_unlock() with irqs disabled"
This reverts commit 5342e269b2.

The approach taken in this patch was deemed too abusive to mutexes,
and thus too likely to result in maintenance problems in the future.
Instead, we will disallow RCU read-side critical sections that partially
overlap with interrupt-disbled code segments.

4968c300e1 rcu: Augment rcu_batch_end tracing for idle and callback state
The current rcu_batch_end event trace records only the name of the RCU
flavor and the total number of callbacks that remain queued on the
current CPU.  This is insufficient for testing and tuning the new
dyntick-idle RCU_FAST_NO_HZ code, so this commit adds idle state along
with whether or not any of the callbacks that were ready to invoke
at the beginning of rcu_do_batch() are still queued.

101db7b41d rcu: Add rcutorture tests for srcu_read_lock_raw()
This commit adds simple rcutorture tests for srcu_read_lock_raw() and
srcu_read_unlock_raw().  It does not test doing srcu_read_lock_raw()
in an exception handler and releasing it in the corresponding process
context.

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.

facc4e1596 rcu: Irq nesting is always 0 on rcu_enter_idle_common
Because tasks don't nest, the ->dyntick_nesting must always be zero upon
entry to rcu_idle_enter_common().  Therefore, pass "0" rather than the

b6fc602014 rcu: Don't check irq nesting from rcu idle entry/exit
Because tasks do not nest, rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() do
not need to check for nesting.  This commit therefore moves nesting
checks from rcu_idle_enter_common() to rcu_irq_exit() and from
rcu_idle_exit_common() to rcu_irq_enter().
