Getting it is not used, let's drop support for notifications about
(un)registered events from connector.
Another option was to check credentials on receiving, but we can always
restore it without bugs if needed, but genetlink has a wider code base
and none complained, that userspace can not get notification when some
other clients were (un)registered.
Kudos for Sebastian Krahmer <krahmer@suse.de>, who found a bug in the
code.

When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, sched_clock() gets
the time from hardware such as the TSC on x86. In this
configuration kgdb will report a softlock warning message on
resuming or detaching from a debug session.
Sequence of events in the problem case:
1) "cpu sched clock" and "hardware time" are at 100 sec prior
to a call to kgdb_handle_exception()
2) Debugger waits in kgdb_handle_exception() for 80 sec and on
exit the following is called ... touch_softlockup_watchdog() -->
__raw_get_cpu_var(touch_timestamp) = 0;
3) "cpu sched clock" = 100s (it was not updated, because the
interrupt was disabled in kgdb) but the "hardware time" = 180 sec
4) The first timer interrupt after resuming from
kgdb_handle_exception updates the watchdog from the "cpu sched clock"
update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() -->
softlockup_tick() --> check (touch_timestamp == 0) (it is "YES"
here, we have set "touch_timestamp = 0" at kgdb) -->
__touch_softlockup_watchdog() ***(A)--> reset "touch_timestamp"
to "get_timestamp()" (Here, the "touch_timestamp" will still be
set to 100s.) ...
scheduler_tick() ***(B)--> sched_clock_tick() (update "cpu sched
clock" to "hardware time" = 180s) ... }
5) The Second timer interrupt handler appears to have a large
jump and trips the softlockup warning.
update_process_times() { ... run_local_timers() -->
softlockup_tick() --> "cpu sched clock" - "touch_timestamp" =
180s-100s > 60s --> printk "soft lockup error messages" ... }
note: ***(A) reset "touch_timestamp" to
"get_timestamp(this_cpu)"
Why is "touch_timestamp" 100 sec, instead of 180 sec?
When CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK is set, the call trace of
get_timestamp() is:
get_timestamp(this_cpu)
-->cpu_clock(this_cpu)
-->sched_clock_cpu(this_cpu)
-->__update_sched_clock(sched_clock_data, now)
The __update_sched_clock() function uses the GTOD tick value to
create a window to normalize the "now" values. So if "now"
value is too big for sched_clock_data, it will be ignored.
The fix is to invoke sched_clock_tick() to update "cpu sched
clock" in order to recover from this state. This is done by
introducing the function touch_softlockup_watchdog_sync(). This
allows kgdb to request that the sched clock is updated when the
watchdog thread runs the first time after a resume from kgdb.

This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the
kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw
breakpoint reservations.
The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it
can start the kernel running from an invalid context.
A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get
created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint
reservations.
The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently
processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is
improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the
hardware breakpoint reservations.
Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it
will be a system wide reservation.

'flush_old_exec()' is the point of no return when doing an execve(), and
it is pretty badly misnamed. It doesn't just flush the old executable
environment, it also starts up the new one.
Which is very inconvenient for things like setting up the new
personality, because we want the new personality to affect the starting
of the new environment, but at the same time we do _not_ want the new
personality to take effect if flushing the old one fails.
As a result, the x86-64 '32-bit' personality is actually done using this
insane "I'm going to change the ABI, but I haven't done it yet" bit
(TIF_ABI_PENDING), with SET_PERSONALITY() not actually setting the
personality, but just the "pending" bit, so that "flush_thread()" can do
the actual personality magic.
This patch in no way changes any of that insanity, but it does split the
'flush_old_exec()' function up into a preparatory part that can fail
(still called flush_old_exec()), and a new part that will actually set
up the new exec environment (setup_new_exec()). All callers are changed
to trivially comply with the new world order.

It's a simplified 'read_cache_page()' which takes a page allocation
flag, so that different paths can control how aggressive the memory
allocations are that populate a address space.
In particular, the intel GPU object mapping code wants to be able to do
a certain amount of own internal memory management by automatically
shrinking the address space when memory starts getting tight. This
allows it to dynamically use different memory allocation policies on a
per-allocation basis, rather than depend on the (static) address space
gfp policy.
The actual new function is a one-liner, but re-organizing the helper
functions to the point where you can do this with a single line of code
is what most of the patch is all about.

[ 427.916699] Call Trace:
The problem is caused by a mismatch between the USB core's view of the
device state and the USB device and xHCI host's view of the device state.
After the device reset and re-configuration, the device and the xHCI host
think they are using alternate setting 0 of all interfaces. However, the
USB core keeps track of the old state, which may include non-zero
alternate settings. It uses intf->cur_altsetting to keep the endpoint
sysfs files for the old state across the reset.
The bandwidth allocation functions need to know what the xHCI host thinks
the current alternate settings are, so original patch set
intf->cur_altsetting to the alternate setting 0. This caused duplicate
endpoint files to be created.
The solution is to not set intf->cur_altsetting before calling
usb_set_interface() in usb_reset_and_verify_device(). Instead, we add a
new flag to struct usb_interface to tell usb_hcd_alloc_bandwidth() to use
alternate setting 0 as the currently installed alternate setting.

commit 541cd3ee00a4fe975b22fac6a3bc846bacef37f7 ("phylib: Fix deadlock
on resume") caused TI DaVinci EMAC ethernet driver to oops upon resume:
PM: resume of devices complete after 237.098 msecs
Restarting tasks ... done.
kernel BUG at kernel/workqueue.c:354!
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
[...]
Backtrace:
[<c002c598>] (__bug+0x0/0x2c) from [<c0052a54>] (queue_delayed_work_on+0x74/0xf8)
[<c00529e0>] (queue_delayed_work_on+0x0/0xf8) from [<c0052b30>] (queue_delayed_work+0x2c/0x30)
The oops pops up because TI DaVinci EMAC driver detaches PHY on
suspend and attaches it back on resume. Attaching makes phylib call
phy_start_machine() that initializes a workqueue. On the other hand,
PHY's resume routine will call phy_start_machine() again, and that
will cause the oops since we just destroyed the already scheduled
workqueue.
This patch fixes the issue by moving workqueue initialization to
phy_device_create().
p.s. We don't see this oops with ucc_geth and gianfar drivers because
they perform a fine-grained suspend, i.e. they just stop the PHYs
without detaching.

Fix a problem in NOMMU mmap with ramfs whereby a shared mmap can happen
over the end of a truncation. The problem is that
ramfs_nommu_check_mappings() checks that the reduced file size against the
VMA tree, but not the vm_region tree.
The following sequence of events can cause the problem:
fd = open("/tmp/x", O_RDWR|O_TRUNC|O_CREAT, 0600);
ftruncate(fd, 32 * 1024);
a = mmap(NULL, 32 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
b = mmap(NULL, 16 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
munmap(a, 32 * 1024);
ftruncate(fd, 16 * 1024);
c = mmap(NULL, 32 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
Mapping 'a' creates a vm_region covering 32KB of the file. Mapping 'b'
sees that the vm_region from 'a' is covering the region it wants and so
shares it, pinning it in memory.
Mapping 'a' then goes away and the file is truncated to the end of VMA
'b'. However, the region allocated by 'a' is still in effect, and has
_not_ been reduced.
Mapping 'c' is then created, and because there's a vm_region covering the
desired region, get_unmapped_area() is _not_ called to repeat the check,
and the mapping is granted, even though the pages from the latter half of
the mapping have been discarded.
However:
d = mmap(NULL, 16 * 1024, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0);
Mapping 'd' should work, and should end up sharing the region allocated by
'a'.
To deal with this, we shrink the vm_region struct during the truncation,
lest do_mmap_pgoff() take it as licence to share the full region
automatically without calling the get_unmapped_area() file op again.

Add BUILD_BUG_ON_NOT_POWER_OF_2()
When code relies on a constant being a power of 2:
#define FOO 512 /* must be a power of 2 */
it would be nice to be able to do:
BUILD_BUG_ON(!is_power_of_2(FOO));
However applying an inline function does not result in a compile-time
constant that can be used with BUILD_BUG_ON(), so trying that gives
results in:
error: bit-field '<anonymous>' width not an integer constant
As suggested by akpm, rather than monkeying around with is_power_of_2()
and risking gcc warts about constant expressions, just create a macro
BUILD_BUG_ON_NOT_POWER_OF_2() to encapsulate this common requirement.

Right now for kfifo_*_user it's not easily possible to distingush between
a user copy failing and the FIFO not containing enough data. The problem
is that both conditions are multiplexed into the same return code.
Avoid this by moving the "copy length" into a separate output parameter
and only return 0/-EFAULT in the main return value.
I didn't fully adapt the weird "record" variants, those seem
to be unused anyways and were rather messy (should they be just removed?)
I would appreciate some double checking if I did all the conversions
correctly.

The pointers to user buffers are currently unsigned char *, which requires

commit 5300990c0370e804e49d9a59d928c5d53fb73487 had stepped on a rather
nasty mess: definitions of ACC_MODE used to be different. Fixed the
resulting breakage, converting them to variant that takes O_... value;
all callers have that and it actually simplifies life (see tomoyo part

(Commit 7cb777a3d71f9d1f7eb149c7a504d21f24219ae8 (mtd: add ARM pismo support)
intended to add this, but seems only to have patched the Makefile without
touching Kconfig or providing any code...)
The following patch adds support for PISMO modules found on ARM Ltd
development platforms. These are MTD modules, and can have a
selection of SRAM, flash or DOC devices as described by an on-board
I2C EEPROM.
We support SRAM and NOR flash devices only by registering appropriate
conventional MTD platform devices as children of the 'pismo' device.

There are two copies of list_sort() in the tree already, one in the DRM
code, another in ubifs. Now XFS needs this as well. Create a generic
list_sort() function from the ubifs version and convert existing users
