sched: Cure nr_iowait_cpu() users
Commit
0224cf4c5e (sched: Intoduce get_cpu_iowait_time_us())
broke things by not making sure preemption was indeed disabled
by the callers of nr_iowait_cpu() which took the iowait value of
the current cpu.
This resulted in a heap of preempt warnings. Cure this by making
nr_iowait_cpu() take a cpu number and fix up the callers to pass
in the right number.

sched: Fix over-scheduling bug
Commit
e70971591 ("sched: Optimize unused cgroup configuration") introduced
an imbalanced scheduling bug.
If we do not use CGROUP, function update_h_load won't update h_load. When the
system has a large number of tasks far more than logical CPU number, the
incorrect cfs_rq[cpu]->h_load value will cause load_balance() to pull too
many tasks to the local CPU from the busiest CPU. So the busiest CPU keeps
going in a round robin. That will hurt performance.
The issue was found originally by a scientific calculation workload that
developed by Yanmin. With that commit, the workload performance drops
about 40%.

sched: Fix PROVE_RCU vs cpu_cgroup
PROVE_RCU has a few issues with the cpu_cgroup because the scheduler
typically holds rq->lock around the css rcu derefs but the generic
cgroup code doesn't (and can't) know about that lock.
Provide means to add extra checks to the css dereference and use that
in the scheduler to annotate its users.
The addition of rq->lock to these checks is correct because the
cgroup_subsys::attach() method takes the rq->lock for each task it
moves, therefore by holding that lock, we ensure the task is pinned to
the current cgroup and the RCU derefence is valid.
That leaves one genuine race in __sched_setscheduler() where we used
task_group() without holding any of the required locks and thus raced
with the cgroup code. Solve this by moving the check under the
appropriate lock.

This reverts commit
962400e8fd29981a7b166e463dd143b6ac6a3e76, which was
entirely bogus.
The code used to multiply the character offset by "vc->vc_cols", and
that's actually correct, because 'd' itself is an 'unsigned short'. So
the pointer arithmetic already takes the size of a VGA character into
account. Changing it to use vc_size_row (which is just "vc_cols"
shifted up to take the size of the character into account) ends up
multiplying with the VGA character size twice.
This got reported as bugs for various other subsystems, because what it
actually results in is writing the 16-bit vc_video_erase_char pattern
(usually 0x0720: 0x07 is the default attribute, 0x20 is ASCII space)
into some random other allocation.
So Markus ended up reporting this as a ext4 bug, while to Torsten Kaiser
it looked like a problem with KMS or libata. Jeff Chua saw it in
different places.
And finally - Justin Mattock had slab poisoning enabled, and saw it as a
slab poison overwritten. And bisected and reverted this to verify the
buggy commit.

Previously this was a fortuitous byproduct of userspace using pwrite()

module: fix bne2 "gave up waiting for init of module libcrc32c"
Problem: it's hard to avoid an init routine stumbling over a
request_module these days. And it's not clear it's always a bad idea:
for example, a module like kvm with dynamic dependencies on kvm-intel
or kvm-amd would be neater if it could simply request_module the right
one.
In this particular case, it's libcrc32c:
libcrc32c_mod_init
crypto_alloc_shash
crypto_alloc_tfm
crypto_find_alg
crypto_alg_mod_lookup
crypto_larval_lookup
request_module
If another module is waiting inside resolve_symbol() for libcrc32c to
finish initializing (ie. bne2 depends on libcrc32c) then it does so
holding the module lock, and our request_module() can't make progress
until that is released.
Waiting inside resolve_symbol() without the lock isn't all that hard:
we just need to pass the -EBUSY up the call chain so we can sleep
where we don't hold the lock. Error reporting is a bit trickier: we
need to copy the name of the unfinished module before releasing the
lock.
Other notes:
1) This also fixes a theoretical issue where a weak dependency would allow
symbol version mismatches to be ignored.
2) We rename use_module to ref_module to make life easier for the only
external user (the out-of-tree ksplice patches).

PATCH 1/2 actually drops the lock in places where it's needed

Rather than adding a new "module_loading" list, I think we should be able
to just use the existing "modules" list, and just fix up the locking a
bit.
In fact, maybe we could just move the "look up existing module" a bit

not only can see "who uses me", but also see a list of modules that are
"used by me".
In fact, we always wanted that list in "module_unload_free()": when we

rps: tcp: fix rps_sock_flow_table table updates
I believe a moderate SYN flood attack can corrupt RFS flow table
(rps_sock_flow_table), making RPS/RFS much less effective.
Even in a normal situation, server handling short lived sessions suffer
from bad steering for the first data packet of a session, if another SYN
packet is received for another session.
We do following action in tcp_v4_rcv() :
sock_rps_save_rxhash(sk, skb->rxhash);
We should _not_ do this if sk is a LISTEN socket, as about each
packet received on a LISTEN socket has a different rxhash than
previous one.
-> RPS_NO_CPU markers are spread all over rps_sock_flow_table.
Also, it makes sense to protect sk->rxhash field changes with socket
lock (We currently can change it even if user thread owns the lock
and might use rxhash)
This patch moves sock_rps_save_rxhash() to a sock locked section,
and only for non LISTEN sockets.

omap: remove BUG_ON for disabled interrupts
Remove a BUG_ON for when interrupts are disabled during an MMC request.
During boot, interrupts can be disabled when a request is made, causing
this bug to be triggered. In reality, there's no reason this should halt
the kernel, as the driver has proved reliable in spite of disabled
interrupts, and additionally, there's nothing in this code that would
require interrupts to be enabled.
The only setup I've managed to make it trigger on is on the HTC Herald
during bootup when the driver is built into the kernel (mostly because
that's all I have). I believe it's related to the fact that on bootup I
get many timeout errors on "CMD5" while initializing the card. Each CMD5
timeout triggers that bug (I changed it to a WARN_ON to get it to boot in)
due to the fact that part of the timeout code involves sending the request
again. With interrupts turned off, that BUG would be triggered.

sys_personality: change sys_personality() to accept "unsigned int" instead of u_long
task_struct->pesonality is "unsigned int", but sys_personality() paths use
"unsigned long pesonality". This means that every assignment or
comparison is not right. In particular, if this argument does not fit
into "unsigned int" __set_personality() changes the caller's personality
and then sys_personality() returns -EINVAL.
Turn this argument into "unsigned int" and avoid overflows. Obviously,
this is the user-visible change, we just ignore the upper bits. But this
can't break the sane application.
There is another thing which can confuse the poorly written applications.
User-space thinks that this syscall returns int, not long. This means
that the returned value can be negative and look like the error code. But
note that libc won't be confused and thus errno won't be set, and with
this patch the user-space can never get -1 unless sys_personality() really
fails. And, most importantly, the negative RET != -1 is only possible if
that app previously called personality(RET).

49bbd815fd8ba26d0354900b783b767c7f47c816 ("fb_defio:
fix for non-dirty ptes").
Although the fix provided is correct, it's been suggested to avoid the
underlying race in the same way as it is currently done in filesystems
like NFS, for maintainability.
A following patch "fb_defio: redo fix for non-dirty ptes" will provide
such an alternate fix.

fs/binfmt_flat.c: split the stack & data alignments
The stack and data have different alignment requirements, so don't force
them to wear the same shoe. Increase the data alignment to match that
which the elf2flt linker script has always been using: 0x20 bytes. Not
only does this bring the kernel loader in line with the toolchain, but it
also fixes a swath of gcc tests which try to force larger alignment values
but randomly fail when the FLAT loader fails to deliver.

fix truncate inode time modification breakage
mtime and ctime should be changed only if the file size has actually
changed. Patches changing ext2 and tmpfs from vmtruncate to new truncate
sequence has caused regressions where they always update timestamps.
There is some strange cases in POSIX where truncate(2) must not update
times unless the size has acutally changed, see
6e656be89.
This area is all still rather buggy in different ways in a lot of
filesystems and needs a cleanup and audit (ideally the vfs will provide
a simple attribute or call to direct all filesystems exactly which
attributes to change). But coming up with the best solution will take a
while and is not appropriate for rc anyway.
So fix recent regression for now.

Staging: comedi: amplc_dio200: Protect counter subdevice with spinlock
The internal state of an 82C54 counter timer chip will get messed up if
several threads read, write, configure, or check the status of the chip
simultaneously. Protect the register access sequences with a spin lock.

Staging: comedi: adv_pci_dio: Support Advantech PCI-1735U
Add support for the Advantech PCI-1735U card, including support for a
counter subdevice (based on an 82C54 counter timer chip).
The counter subdevice needs more testing, as the only person I know who
tried it couldn't get it to work!
