The current version of hlist_entry_safe() fetches the pointer twice,
once to test for NULL and the other to compute the offset back to the
enclosing structure. This is OK for normal lock-based use because in
that case, the pointer cannot change. However, when the pointer is
protected by RCU (as in "rcu_dereference(p)"), then the pointer can
change at any time. This use case can result in the following sequence
of events:
1. CPU 0 invokes hlist_entry_safe(), fetches the RCU-protected
pointer as sees that it is non-NULL.
2. CPU 1 invokes hlist_del_rcu(), deleting the entry that CPU 0
just fetched a pointer to. Because this is the last entry
in the list, the pointer fetched by CPU 0 is now NULL.
3. CPU 0 refetches the pointer, obtains NULL, and then gets a
NULL-pointer crash.
This commit therefore applies gcc's "({ })" statement expression to
create a temporary variable so that the specified pointer is fetched
only once, avoiding the above sequence of events. Please note that
it is the caller's responsibility to use rcu_dereference() as needed.
This allows RCU-protected uses to work correctly without imposing
any additional overhead on the non-RCU case.
Many thanks to Eric Dumazet for spotting root cause!

but it can lead to the warning of checking root for quota in

Doing this would reliably fail with -EBUSY for me:
# mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/scratch; umount /mnt/scratch; mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb2
...
unable to open /dev/sdb2: Device or resource busy
because mkfs.btrfs tries to open the device O_EXCL, and somebody still has it.
Using systemtap to track bdev gets & puts shows a kworker thread doing a
blkdev put after mkfs attempts a get; this is left over from the unmount
path:
btrfs_close_devices
__btrfs_close_devices
call_rcu(&device->rcu, free_device);
free_device
INIT_WORK(&device->rcu_work, __free_device);
schedule_work(&device->rcu_work);
so unmount might complete before __free_device fires & does its blkdev_put.
Adding an rcu_barrier() to btrfs_close_devices() causes unmount to wait
until all blkdev_put()s are done, and the device is truly free once
unmount completes.

Hi.
I'm trying to send big chunks of memory from application address space via
TCP socket using vmsplice + splice like this
mem = mmap(128Mb);
vmsplice(pipe[1], mem); /* splice memory into pipe */
splice(pipe[0], tcp_socket); /* send it into network */
When I'm lucky and a huge page splices into the pipe and then into the socket
_and_ client and server ends of the TCP connection are on the same host,
communicating via lo, the whole connection gets stuck! The sending queue
becomes full and app stops writing/splicing more into it, but the receiving
queue remains empty, and that's why.
The __skb_fill_page_desc observes a tail page of a huge page and erroneously
propagates its page->pfmemalloc value onto socket (the pfmemalloc on tail pages
contain garbage). Then this skb->pfmemalloc leaks through lo and due to the
tcp_v4_rcv
sk_filter
if (skb->pfmemalloc && !sock_flag(sk, SOCK_MEMALLOC)) /* true */
return -ENOMEM
goto release_and_discard;
no packets reach the socket. Even TCP re-transmits are dropped by this, as skb
cloning clones the pfmemalloc flag as well.
That said, here's the proper page->pfmemalloc propagation onto socket: we
must check the huge-page's head page only, other pages' pfmemalloc and mapping
values do not contain what is expected in this place. However, I'm not sure
whether this fix is _complete_, since pfmemalloc propagation via lo also
oesn't look great.
Both, bit propagation from page to skb and this check in sk_filter, were
introduced by c48a11c7 (netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb), in v3.5 so

This partially reverts commit 1696e6bc2a
("mtd: nand: kill NAND_NO_READRDY").
In that patch I overlooked a few things.
The original documentation for NAND_NO_READRDY included "True for all
large page devices, as they do not support autoincrement." I was
conflating "not support autoincrement" with the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR option,
which was in fact doing nothing. So, when I dropped NAND_NO_AUTOINCR, I
concluded that I then could harmlessly drop NAND_NO_READRDY. But of
course the fact the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR was doing nothing didn't mean
NAND_NO_READRDY was doing nothing...
So, NAND_NO_READRDY is re-introduced as NAND_NEED_READRDY and applied
only to those few remaining small-page NAND which needed it in the first
place.

Pull namespace bugfixes from Eric Biederman:
"This tree includes a partial revert for "fs: Limit sys_mount to only
request filesystem modules." When I added the new style module aliases
to the filesystems I deleted the old ones. A bad move. It turns out
that distributions like Arch linux use module aliases when
constructing ramdisks. Which meant ultimately that an ext3 filesystem
mounted with ext4 would not result in the ext4 module being put into
the ramdisk.
The other change in this tree adds a handful of filesystem module
alias I simply failed to add the first time. Which inconvinienced a
few folks using cifs.

mm: remove_memory(): fix end_pfn setting
include/linux/res_counter.h needs errno.h
GFP_NOIO is often used for idr_alloc() inside preloaded section as the
allocation mask doesn't really matter. If the idr tree needs to be
expanded, idr_alloc() first tries to allocate using the specified
allocation mask and if it fails falls back to the preloaded buffer. This
order prevent non-preloading idr_alloc() users from taking advantage of
preloading ones by using preload buffer without filling it shifting the
burden of allocation to the preload users.
Unfortunately, this allowed/expected-to-fail kmem_cache allocation ends up
generating spurious slab lowmem warning before succeeding the request from
the preload buffer.
This patch makes idr_layer_alloc() add __GFP_NOWARN to the first
kmem_cache attempt and try kmem_cache again w/o __GFP_NOWARN after
allocation from preload_buffer fails so that lowmem warning is generated
if not suppressed by the original @gfp_mask.
