991ea75cb1 drm: use workqueue instead of slow-work
Workqueue can now handle high concurrency.  Convert drm_crtc_helper to
use system_nrt_wq instead of slow-work.  The conversion is mostly
straight forward.  One difference is that drm_helper_hpd_irq_event()
no longer blocks and can be called from any context.

8af7c12436 fscache: convert operation to use workqueue instead of slow-work
Make fscache operation to use only workqueue instead of combination of
workqueue and slow-work.  FSCACHE_OP_SLOW is dropped and
FSCACHE_OP_FAST is renamed to FSCACHE_OP_ASYNC and uses newly added
fscache_op_wq workqueue to execute op->processor().
fscache_operation_init_slow() is dropped and fscache_operation_init()
now takes @processor argument directly.

* Unbound workqueue is used.

* fscache_retrieval_work() is no longer necessary as OP_ASYNC now does
  the equivalent thing.

* sysctl fscache.operation_max_active added to control concurrency.
  The default value is nr_cpus clamped between 2 and
  WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE.

* debugfs support is dropped for now.  Tracing API based debug
  facility is planned to be added.

8b8edefa2f fscache: convert object to use workqueue instead of slow-work
Make fscache object state transition callbacks use workqueue instead
of slow-work.  New dedicated unbound CPU workqueue fscache_object_wq
is created.  get/put callbacks are renamed and modified to take
@object and called directly from the enqueue wrapper and the work
function.  While at it, make all open coded instances of get/put to
use fscache_get/put_object().

* Unbound workqueue is used.

* work_busy() output is printed instead of slow-work flags in object
  debugging outputs.  They mean basically the same thing bit-for-bit.

* sysctl fscache.object_max_active added to control concurrency.  The
  default value is nr_cpus clamped between 4 and
  WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE.

* slow_work_sleep_till_thread_needed() is replaced with fscache
  private implementation fscache_object_sleep_till_congested() which
  waits on fscache_object_wq congestion.

* debugfs support is dropped for now.  Tracing API based debug
  facility is planned to be added.

718be4aaf3 ACPI: skip checking BM_STS if the BIOS doesn't ask for it
It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3
that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not.

Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS.
If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS,
it can retard or completely prevent entry into
deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat:

e120153ddf workqueue: fix how cpu number is stored in work->data
Once a work starts execution, its data contains the cpu number it was
on instead of pointing to cwq.  This is added by commit 7a22ad75
(workqueue: carry cpu number in work data once execution starts) to
reliably determine the work was last on even if the workqueue itself
was destroyed inbetween.

Whether data points to a cwq or contains a cpu number was
distinguished by comparing the value against PAGE_OFFSET.  The
assumption was that a cpu number should be below PAGE_OFFSET while a
pointer to cwq should be above it.  However, on architectures which
use separate address spaces for user and kernel spaces, this doesn't
hold as PAGE_OFFSET is zero.

Fix it by using an explicit flag, WORK_STRUCT_CWQ, to mark what the
data field contains.  If the flag is set, it's pointing to a cwq;
otherwise, it contains a cpu number.

Reported on s390 and microblaze during linux-next testing.

8a35747a5d macvtap: Limit packet queue length
Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.

This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length.  This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.

This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.

Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.

This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.

Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.

Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length.  This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

4c21adf26f x86 cpufreq, perf: Make trace_power_frequency cpufreq driver independent
and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others.

trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric
way in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only.

-> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to
   cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE
   notifier is triggered.
   This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq
   drivers.

trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly
when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores'
frequency depend on each other.

-> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu
   which gets switched automatically fixes this.

Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my
initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch:
- Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names)
- Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id
- Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id

__print_flags() and __print_symbolic() use percpu trace_seq:

1) Its memory is allocated at compile time, it wastes memory if we don't use tracing.
2) It is percpu data and it wastes more memory for multi-cpus system.
3) It disables preemption when it executes its core routine
   "trace_seq_printf(s, "%s: ", #call);" and introduces latency.

So we move this trace_seq to struct trace_iterator.

e870e9a124 tracing: Allow to disable cmdline recording
We found that even enabling a single trace event that will rarely be

(lmbench context switch test)

 2p/0K 2p/16K 2p/64K 8p/16K 8p/64K 16p/16K 16p/64K

  2.39   2.51  2.35   2.75   2.27     2.81    2.24

The overhead is 6% ~ 11%.

It's because when a trace event is enabled 3 tracepoints (sched_switch,
sched_wakeup, sched_wakeup_new) will be activated to map pid to cmdname.

We'd like to avoid this overhead, so add a trace option '(no)record-cmd'
to allow to disable cmdline recording.

f8324e20f8 math-emu: correct test for downshifting fraction in _FP_FROM_INT()
The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is
used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value.
It does this basically in three steps:

1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits.
2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position
   for normalized fractions.
3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position.

There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its
MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be
downshifted.  This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when
packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input.

The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors,
but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions
on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631
<http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>.

Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to
same-size floats may be affected.

The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the
fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<".

I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message.
There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry.

92897b5c66 drm: add "auto" dithering method
There's no convenient/reliable way for drivers to both obey the dithering
mode property, and to be able to attempt to provide a good default in all
cases.

This commit adds an "auto" method to the property which drivers can default
to if they wish, whilst still allowing the user to override the choice as
they do now.

844b9a8707 vfs: fix RCU-lockdep false positive due to /proc
If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some
other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep
splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after
the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable().

This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded
process.  To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for
thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
provided in a separate commit.

07fca0e57f tracing: Properly align linker defined symbols
We define a number of symbols in the linker scipt like this:

    __start_syscalls_metadata = .;
    *(__syscalls_metadata)

But we do not know the alignment of "." when we assign
the __start_syscalls_metadata symbol.
gcc started to uses bigger alignment for structs (32 bytes),
so we saw situations where the linker due to alignment
constraints increased the value of "." after the symbol assignment.

This resulted in boot fails.

Fix this by forcing a 32 byte alignment of "." before the
assignment.

This patch introduces the forced alignment for
ftrace_events and syscalls_metadata.
It may be required in more places.

4f366c5dab wireless: only use alpha2 regulatory information from country IE
The meaning and/or usage of the country IE is somewhat poorly defined.
In practice, this means that regulatory rulesets in a country IE are
often incomplete and might be untrustworthy.  This removes the code
associated with interpreting those rulesets while preserving respect
for country "alpha2" codes also contained in the country IE.

4ced3f74da mac80211: move QoS-enable to BSS info
Ever since

commit e1b3ec1a2a
Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>
Date:   Mon Mar 29 12:18:34 2010 +0200

    mac80211: explicitly disable/enable QoS

mac80211 is telling drivers, in particular
iwlwifi, whether QoS is enabled or not.

However, this is only relevant for station mode,
since only then will any device send nullfunc
frames and need to know whether they should be
QoS frames or not. In other modes, there are
(currently) no frames the device is supposed to
send.

When you now consider virtual interfaces, it
becomes apparent that the current mechanism is
inadequate since it enables/disables QoS on a
global scale, where for nullfunc frames it has
to be on a per-interface scale.

Due to the above considerations, we can change
the way mac80211 advertises the QoS state to
drivers to only ever advertise it as "off" in
station mode, and make it a per-BSS setting.

e7c38157c6 ipv6: Make IP6CB(skb)->nhoff 16-bit.
Even with jumbograms I cannot see any way in which we would need
to records a larger than 65535 valued next-header offset.

The maximum extension header length is (256 << 3) == 2048.
There are only a handful of extension headers specified which
we'd even accept (say 5 or 6), therefore the largest next-header
offset we'd ever have to contend with is something less than
say 16k.

Therefore make it a u16 instead of a u32.
