2ad69677b6 PATA: RPC now selects HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM for pata platform driver
The RPC machine type now selects HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM so we can remove
the special case in the PATA_PLATFORM configuration code.

be77e43abb ata_piix: drop merged SCR access and use slave_link instead
Now that libata has slave_link, there's no need to keep ugly merged
SCR access.  Drop it and use slave_link instead.  This results in
simpler code and much better separate link handling for master and
slave.

b1c72916ab libata: implement slave_link
Explanation taken from the comment of ata_slave_link_init().

 In libata, a port contains links and a link contains devices.  There
 is single host link but if a PMP is attached to it, there can be
 multiple fan-out links.  On SATA, there's usually a single device
 connected to a link but PATA and SATA controllers emulating TF based
 interface can have two - master and slave.

 However, there are a few controllers which don't fit into this
 abstraction too well - SATA controllers which emulate TF interface
 with both master and slave devices but also have separate SCR
 register sets for each device.  These controllers need separate links
 for physical link handling (e.g. onlineness, link speed) but should
 be treated like a traditional M/S controller for everything else
 (e.g. command issue, softreset).

 slave_link is libata's way of handling this class of controllers
 without impacting core layer too much.  For anything other than
 physical link handling, the default host link is used for both master
 and slave.  For physical link handling, separate @ap->slave_link is
 used.  All dirty details are implemented inside libata core layer.
 From LLD's POV, the only difference is that prereset, hardreset and
 postreset are called once more for the slave link, so the reset
 sequence looks like the following.

 prereset(M) -> prereset(S) -> hardreset(M) -> hardreset(S) ->
 softreset(M) -> postreset(M) -> postreset(S)

 Note that softreset is called only for the master.  Softreset resets
 both M/S by definition, so SRST on master should handle both (the
 standard method will work just fine).

As slave_link excludes PMP support and only code paths which deal with
the attributes of physical link are affected, all the changes are
localized to libata.h, libata-core.c and libata-eh.c.

 * ata_is_host_link() updated so that slave_link is considered as host
   link too.

 * iterator extended to iterate over the slave_link when using the
   underbarred version.

 * force param handling updated such that devno 16 is mapped to the
   slave link/device.

 * ata_link_on/offline() updated to return the combined result from
   master and slave link.  ata_phys_link_on/offline() are the direct
   versions.

 * EH autopsy and report are performed separately for master slave
   links.  Reset is udpated to implement the above described reset
   sequence.

Except for reset update, most changes are minor, many of them just
modifying dev->link to ata_dev_phys_link(dev) or using phys online
test instead.

After this update, LLDs can take full advantage of per-dev SCR
registers by simply turning on slave link.

82ef04fb4c libata: make SCR access ops per-link
Logically, SCR access ops should take @link; however, there was no
compelling reason to convert all SCR access ops when adding @link
abstraction as there's one-to-one mapping between a port and a non-PMP
link.  However, that assumption won't hold anymore with the scheduled
addition of slave link.

Make SCR access ops per-link.

4c1eb90a09 sata_nv: reinstate nv_hardreset() for non generic controllers
Commit 2fd673ecf0 which tried to remove
hardreset for generic accidentally removed it for all flavors as all
others were inheriting from nv_generic_ops.  This patch reinstates
nv_hardreset() and puts it into nv_common_ops which all flavors
inherit from.  nv_generic_ops now inherits from nv_common_ops and
overrides .hardreset to ATA_OP_NULL.

While at it, explain why nv_hardreset and ATA_OP_NULL override are
necessary.

d7161a6534 kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping
On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored
if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a
system call.

First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure
it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb,
any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the
exception.

On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was
inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb
core.  The arch specific stub should always set the
kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping.  This
allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace
happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call.

254db57f9b GFS2: Support for I/O barriers
This patch adds barrier support to GFS2. There is not a lot of change
really... we just add the barrier flag when we write journal header
blocks. If the underlying device refuses to support them, we fall back
to the previous way of doing things (wait for the I/O and hope) since
there is nothing else we can do. There is no user configuration,
barriers will always be on unless the device refuses to support them.
This seems a reasonable solution to me since this is a correctness
issue.

71a8c87fb3 [XFS] Remove xfs_iext_irec_compact_full()
Yet another bug was found in xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and while the
source of the bug was found it wasn't an easy task to track it down
because the conditions are very difficult to reproduce.

A HUGE thank-you goes to Russell Cattelan and Eric Sandeen for their
significant effort in tracking down the source of this corruption.

xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() and xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() are almost
identical - they both compact indirect extent lists by moving extents from
subsequent buffers into earlier ones. xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() only
moves extents if all of the extents in the next buffer will fit into the
empty space in the buffer before it. xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() will go
a step further and move part of the next buffer if all the extents wont
fit. It will then shift the remaining extents in the next buffer up to the
start of the buffer. The bug here was that we did not update er_extoff and
this caused extent list corruption.

It does not appear that this extra functionality gains us much. Calling
xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() instead will do a good enough job at
compacting the indirect list and will be quicker too.

For the case in xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct() the total number of extents
in the indirect list will fit into one buffer so we will never need the
extra functionality of xfs_iext_irec_compact_full() there.

Also xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages() doesn't need to do a memmove() (the
buffers will never overlap) so we don't want the performance hit that can
incur.

6ef190cc92 IPoIB: Fix crash when path record fails after path flush
Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM

change introduces a problem if the path record query triggered by
fails, causing path->ah to become NULL.  A later successful path query
will then trigger WARN_ON() in path_rec_completion(), and crash
because path->ah has already been freed, so the ipoib_put_ah() inside
the lock in path_rec_completion() may actually drop the last reference
(contrary to the comment that claims this is safe).

Fix this by updating path->ah and freeing old_ah only when the path
record query is successful.  This prevents the neighbour AH and that
path AH from getting out of sync.

24e8fc498e ALSA: remove unneeded power_mutex lock in snd_pcm_drop
The power_mutex lock in snd_pcm_drop may cause a possible deadlock
chain, and above all, it's unneeded.  Let's get rid of it.

399ccdc1cd ALSA: fix locking in snd_pcm_open*() and snd_rawmidi_open*()
The PCM and rawmidi open callbacks have a lock against card->controls_list
but it takes a wrong one, card->controls_rwsem, instead of a right one
card->ctl_files_rwlock.  This patch fixes them.

This change also fixes automatically the potential deadlocks due to
mm->mmap_sem in munmap and copy_from/to_user, reported by Sitsofe
Wheeler:

  A: snd_ctl_elem_user_tlv(): card->controls_rwsem => mm->mmap_sem
  B: snd_pcm_open(): card->open_mutex => card->controls_rwsem
  C: munmap: mm->mmap_sem => snd_pcm_release(): card->open_mutex

The patch breaks the chain.

b87f17242d sched: maintain only task entities in cfs_rq->tasks list
cfs_rq->tasks list is used by the load balancer to iterate
over all the tasks. Currently it holds all the entities
(both task and group entities) because of which there is
a need to check for group entities explicitly during load
balancing. This patch changes the cfs_rq->tasks list to
hold only task entities.

08ec3c2d45 MN10300: Make sched_clock() report time since boot
Make sched_clock() report time since boot rather than time since last
timer interrupt.

Make sched_clock() expand and scale the 32-bit TSC value running at
IOCLK speed (~33MHz) to a 64-bit nanosecond counter, using cnt32_to_63()
acquired from the ARM arch and without using slow DIVU instructions
every call.
