Add a helper function for validating a scan mask for devices where exactly one
channel must be selected during sampling. This is a common case among devices
which have scan mask restrictions so it makes sense to provide this function in
the core.

This is useful for cases where the number of valid scan masks grows
exponentially, but it is rather easy to check whether a mask is valid or not
programmatically.
An example of such a case is a device with multiple ADCs where each ADC has a
upstream MUX, which allows to select from a number of physical channels.
+-------+ +-------+
| | | | --- Channel 1
| ADC 1 |---| MUX 1 | --- ...
| | | | --- Channel M
+-------+ +-------+
. . .
. . .
. . .
+-------+ +-------+
| | | | --- Channel M * N + 1
| ADC N |---| MUX N | --- ...
| | | | --- Channel M * N + M
+-------+ +-------+
The number of necessary scan masks for this case is (M+1)**N - 1, on the other
hand it is easy to check whether subsets for each ADC of the scanmask have only
one bit set.

Registering the platform driver before module_init allows us to log oopses
that happen during device probing.
This requires changing module_init to postcore_initcall, and switching
from platform_driver_probe to platform_driver_register because the
platform device is not registered when the platform driver is registered;
and because we use driver_register, now can't use create_bundle() (since
it will try to register the same driver once again), so we have to switch
to platform_device_register_data().
Also, some __init -> __devinit changes were needed.
Overall, the registration logic is now much clearer, since we have only
one driver registration point, and just an optional dummy device, which
is created from the module parameters.

On arches that do not support this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() slab_lock is used
to do atomic cmpxchg() on double word which contains page->_count. The
page count can be changed from get_page() or put_page() without taking
slab_lock. That corrupts page counter.
Fix it by moving page->_count out of cmpxchg_double data. So that slub
does no change it while updating slub meta-data in struct page.

Commit 5963e317b1e9d2a ("ftrace/x86: Do not change stacks in DEBUG when
calling lockdep") prevented lockdep calls from the int3 breakpoint handler
from reseting the stack if a function that was called was in the process
of being converted for tracing and had a breakpoint on it. The idea is,
before calling the lockdep code, do a load_idt() to the special IDT that
kept the breakpoint stack from reseting. This worked well as a quick fix
for this kernel release, until a certain config caused a lockup in the
function tracer start up tests.
Investigating it, I found that the load_idt that was used to prevent
the int3 from changing stacks was itself being traced!
Even though the config had CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING disabled, and
all 'inline' tags were set to always inline, there were still cases that
it did not inline! This was caused by CONFIG_PARAVIRT_GUEST, where it
would add a pointer to the native_load_idt() which made that function
to be traced.
Commit 45959ee7aa645815a ("ftrace: Do not function trace inlined functions")
only touched the 'inline' tags when CONFIG_OPMITIZE_INLINING was enabled.
PARAVIRT_GUEST shows that this was not enough and we need to also
mark always_inline with notrace as well.

Currently there is a 'chicken and egg' issue when the DS is also the mounted
MDS. The nfs_match_client() reference from nfs4_set_ds_client bumps the
cl_count, the nfs_client is not freed at umount, and nfs4_deviceid_purge_client
is not called to dereference the MDS usage of a deviceid which holds a
reference to the DS nfs_client. The result is the umount program returns,
but the nfs_client is not freed, and the cl_session hearbeat continues.
The MDS (and all other nfs mounts) lose their last nfs_client reference in
nfs_free_server when the last nfs_server (fsid) is umounted.
The file layout DS lose their last nfs_client reference in destroy_ds
when the last deviceid referencing the data server is put and destroy_ds is
called. This is triggered by a call to nfs4_deviceid_purge_client which
removes references to a pNFS deviceid used by an MDS mount.
The fix is to track how many pnfs enabled filesystems are mounted from
this server, and then to purge the device id cache once that count reaches
zero.

Minchan Kim reports that when a system has many swap areas, and tmpfs
swaps out to the ninth or more, shmem_getpage_gfp()'s attempts to read
back the page cannot locate it, and the read fails with -ENOMEM.
Whoops. Yes, I blindly followed read_swap_header()'s pte_to_swp_entry(
swp_entry_to_pte()) technique for determining maximum usable swap
offset, without stopping to realize that that actually depends upon the
pte swap encoding shifting swap offset to the higher bits and truncating
it there. Whereas our radix_tree swap encoding leaves offset in the
lower bits: it's swap "type" (that is, index of swap area) that was
truncated.
Fix it by reducing the SWP_TYPE_SHIFT() in swapops.h, and removing the
broken radix_to_swp_entry(swp_to_radix_entry()) from read_swap_header().
This does not reduce the usable size of a swap area any further, it
leaves it as claimed when making the original commit: no change from 3.0
on x86_64, nor on i386 without PAE; but 3.0's 512GB is reduced to 128GB
per swapfile on i386 with PAE. It's not a change I would have risked
five years ago, but with x86_64 supported for ten years, I believe it's
appropriate now.
Hmm, and what if some architecture implements its swap pte with offset
encoded below type? That would equally break the maximum usable swap
offset check. Happily, they all follow the same tradition of encoding
offset above type, but I'll prepare a check on that for next.

The structured data in the kmsg buffer now contains binary data, which

Pstore doesn't support logging kernel messages in run-time, it only
dumps dmesg when kernel oopses/panics. This makes pstore useless for
debugging hangs caused by HW issues or improper use of HW (e.g.
weird device inserted -> driver tried to write a reserved bits ->
SoC hanged. In that case we don't get any messages in the pstore.
Therefore, let's add a runtime logging support: PSTORE_TYPE_CONSOLE.

Without the update, we'll only see the new dmesg buffer after the
reboot, but previously we could see it right away. Making an oops
visible in pstore filesystem before reboot is a somewhat dubious
feature, but removing it wasn't an intentional change, so let's
restore it.
For this we have to make persistent_ram_save_old() safe for calling
multiple times, and also extern it.

This patch (as1558) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers:
The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the
ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers. Users have been forced
to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep.
After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't
like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3
power state. Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing
we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3
during system sleep.
The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present,
and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set.
Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend.
However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote
wakeup requests while the system is asleep. Hence USB wakeup is not
functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state
of affairs.
A similar patch has already been applied as commit
151b61284776be2d6f02d48c23c3625678960b97 (USB: EHCI: fix crash during
suspend on ASUS computers). The patch supersedes that one and reverts
it. There are two differences:
The old patch added the flag at the USB level; this patch
adds it at the PCI level.
The old patch applied to all chipsets with the same vendor,
subsystem vendor, and product IDs; this patch makes an
exception for a known-good system (based on DMI information).

parameters to level 0. And we call those level 0 calls where we used
to, early in start_kernel().
We also loop through the initcall levels and call the levelled
module_params before the corresponding initcall. Unfortunately level
0 is early_init(), so we call the standard module_param calls twice.
(Turns out most things don't care, but at least ubi.mtd does).
Change the level to -1 for standard module_param calls.

Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This

Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore

This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows

When a CPU is entering dyntick-idle mode, tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
calls rcu_needs_cpu() see if RCU needs that CPU, and, if not, computes the
next wakeup time based on the timer wheels. Only later, when actually
entering the idle loop, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will be invoked. In some
cases, rcu_prepare_for_idle() will post timers to wake the CPU back up.
But all for naught: The next wakeup time for the CPU has already been
computed, and posting a timer afterwards does not force that wakeup
time to be recomputed. This means that rcu_prepare_for_idle()'s have
no effect.
This is not a problem on a busy system because something else will wake
up the CPU soon enough. However, on lightly loaded systems, the CPU
might stay asleep for a considerable length of time. If that CPU has
a callback that the rest of the system is waiting on, the system might
run very slowly or (in theory) even hang.
This commit avoids this problem by having rcu_needs_cpu() give
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() an estimate of when RCU will need the CPU
to wake back up, which tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() takes into account
when programming the CPU's wakeup time. An alternative approach is
for rcu_prepare_for_idle() to use hrtimers instead of normal timers,
but timers are much more efficient than are hrtimers for frequently
and repeatedly posting and cancelling a given timer, which is exactly
what RCU_FAST_NO_HZ does.

Stack depth of 255 seems excessive, given that copy_from_user_nmi()
could be slow.

Weird topologies can lead to asymmetric domain setups. This needs
further consideration since these setups are typically non-minimal
too.
For now, make it work by adding an extra mask selecting which CPUs
are allowed to iterate up.
The topology that triggered it is the one from David Rientjes:
10 20 20 30
20 10 20 20
20 20 10 20
30 20 20 10
resulting in boxes that wouldn't even boot.

SDIO_CCCR_IF[1:0] in SDIO card is used for card data bus width
setting as below:
00b: 1-bit bus
01b: Reserved
10b: 4-bit bus
11b: 8-bit bus (only for embedded SDIO)
And sdio_enable_wide is for setting data bus width as 4-bit.
But currently, it first reads the register, second OR' 1b with
SDIO_CCCR_IF[1], and then writes it back.
As we can see, this is based on such assumption that the
SDIO_CCCR_IF[0] is always 0. Apparently, this is not right.
