This allows processes to override their early/late kill
behaviour on hardware memory errors.
Typically applications which are memory error aware is
better of with early kill (see the error as soon
as possible), all others with late kill (only
see the error when the error is really impacting execution)
There's a global sysctl, but this way an application
can set its specific policy.
We're using two bits, one to signify that the process
stated its intention and that
I also made the prctl future proof by enforcing
the unused arguments are 0.
The state is inherited to children.
Note this makes us officially run out of process flags
on 32bit, but the next patch can easily add another field.
Manpage patch will be supplied separately.

Truncating metadata pages is not safe right now before
we haven't audited all file systems.
To enable truncation only for data address space define
a new address_space callback error_remove_page.
This is used for memory_failure.c memory error handling.
This can be then set to truncate_inode_page()
This patch just defines the new operation and adds documentation.
Callers and users come in followon patches.

When a page has the poison bit set replace the PTE with a poison entry.
This causes the right error handling to be done later when a process runs
into it.
v2: add a new flag to not do that (needed for the memory-failure handler
later) (Fengguang)
v3: remove unnecessary is_migration_entry() test (Fengguang, Minchan)

try_to_unmap currently has multiple modi (migration, munlock, normal unmap)
which are selected by magic flag variables. The logic is not very straight
forward, because each of these flag change multiple behaviours (e.g.
migration turns off aging, not only sets up migration ptes etc.)
Also the different flags interact in magic ways.
A later patch in this series adds another mode to try_to_unmap, so
this becomes quickly unmanageable.
Replace the different flags with a action code (migration, munlock, munmap)
and some additional flags as modifiers (ignore mlock, ignore aging).
This makes the logic more straight forward and allows easier extension
to new behaviours. Change all the caller to declare what they want to
do.
This patch is supposed to be a nop in behaviour. If anyone can prove
it is not that would be a bug.

- Add a new VM_FAULT_HWPOISON error code to handle_mm_fault. Right now
architectures have to explicitely enable poison page support, so
this is forward compatible to all architectures. They only need
to add it when they enable poison page support.
- Add poison page handling in swap in fault code

Add new SIGBUS codes for reporting machine checks as signals. When
the hardware detects an uncorrected ECC error it can trigger these
signals.
This is needed for telling KVM's qemu about machine checks that happen to
guests, so that it can inject them, but might be also useful for other programs.
I find it useful in my test programs.
This patch merely defines the new types.
- Define two new si_codes for SIGBUS. BUS_MCEERR_AO and BUS_MCEERR_AR
* BUS_MCEERR_AO is for "Action Optional" machine checks, which means that some
corruption has been detected in the background, but nothing has been consumed
so far. The program can ignore those if it wants (but most programs would
already get killed)
* BUS_MCEERR_AR is for "Action Required" machine checks. This happens
when corrupted data is consumed or the application ran into an area
which has been known to be corrupted earlier. These require immediate
action and cannot just returned to. Most programs would kill themselves.
- They report the address of the corruption in the user address space
in si_addr.
- Define a new si_addr_lsb field that reports the extent of the corruption
to user space. That's currently always a (small) page. The user application
cannot tell where in this page the corruption happened.
AK: I plan to write a man page update before anyone asks.

Memory migration uses special swap entry types to trigger special actions on
page faults. Extend this mechanism to also support poisoned swap entries, to
trigger poison handling on page faults. This allows follow-on patches to
prevent processes from faulting in poisoned pages again.

Needed for later patch that walks rmap entries on its own.
This used to be very frowned upon, but memory-failure.c does
some rather specialized rmap walking and rmap has been stable
for quite some time, so I think it's ok now to export it.

Hardware poisoned pages need special handling in the VM and shouldn't be
touched again. This requires a new page flag. Define it here.
The page flags wars seem to be over, so it shouldn't be a problem
to get a new one.

In a number of cases, the .suspend, .freeze, .poweroff and .resume,
.thaw, .restore functions are identical. However, they all need to be
assigned to avoid regressionsm as the previous code called .suspend
resp. .resume in all those cases. SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS helps to deal
with this case.
[rjw: Changed the name of the macro and added the comment explaining its
purpose.]

Subject: [PATCH] appletalk: Fix skb leak when ipddp interface is not loaded
...
Fixed up trivial conflicts:
- arch/x86/include/asm/socket.h
converted to <asm-generic/socket.h> in the x86 tree. The generic
header has the same new #define's, so that works out fine.
- drivers/net/tun.c
fix conflict between 89f56d1e9 ("tun: reuse struct sock fields") that
switched over to using 'tun->socket.sk' instead of the redundantly
available (and thus removed) 'tun->sk', and 2b980dbd ("lsm: Add hooks
to the TUN driver") which added a new 'tun->sk' use.
Noted in 'next' by Stephen Rothwell.

IS_SYNC inode
Introduce new function for generic inode syncing (vfs_fsync_range) and use
it from fsync() path. Introduce also new helper for syncing after a sync
write (generic_write_sync) using the generic function.
Use these new helpers for syncing from generic VFS functions. This makes
O_SYNC writes to block devices acquire i_mutex for syncing. If we really
care about this, we can make block_fsync() drop the i_mutex and reacquire
it before it returns.

generic_file_aio_write_nolock() is now used only by block devices and raw
character device. Filesystems should use __generic_file_aio_write() in case
generic_file_aio_write() doesn't suit them. So rename the function to
blkdev_aio_write() and move it to fs/blockdev.c.

Rename __generic_file_aio_write_nolock() to __generic_file_aio_write(), add
comments to write helpers explaining how they should be used and export
__generic_file_aio_write() since it will be used by some filesystems.

blk_ioctl_discard duplicates large amounts of code from blkdev_issue_discard,
the only difference between the two is that blkdev_issue_discard needs to
send a barrier discard request and blk_ioctl_discard a non-barrier one,
and blk_ioctl_discard needs to wait on the request. To facilitates this
add a flags argument to blkdev_issue_discard to control both aspects of the
behaviour. This will be very useful later on for using the waiting
funcitonality for other callers.
Based on an earlier patch from Matthew Wilcox <matthew@wil.cx>.

The commands are conceptually writes, and in the case of IDE and SCSI
commands actually are writes. They were only reads because we thought
that would interact better with the elevators. Now the elevators know
about discard requests, that advantage no longer exists.

Currently, there is a single in_flight counter measuring the number of
requests in the request_queue. But some monitoring tools would like to
know how many read requests and write requests are in progress. Split the
current in_flight counter into two seperate counters for read and write.
This information is exported as a sysfs attribute, as changing the
currently available stat files would break the existing tools.
