8d91771ca4 gpio/nomadik: use ioremap() instead of static mappings
We were using a custom io_p2v() (physical-to-virtual) translation
macro, but it's fully possible to just ioremap() this memory
now, so skip use of static addresses altogether.

1ab8be4a14 net/davinci_emac: fix failing PHY connect attempts
PHY connect attempts fail if no PHY id is specified in the emac platform
data and another mdio bus has been registered before 'davinci_mdio' bus. In
this case when configuring the interface, there will be an attempt to
connect to already attached PHY on the previously registered mdio bus:

net eth1: PHY already attached
net eth1: could not connect to phy smsc911x-0:01
IP-Config: Failed to open eth1
IP-Config: Device `eth1' not found

Fix this by modifying match_first_device() to match first PHY device
on 'davinci_mdio' bus.

c2f1244b86 ehea: only register irq after setting up ports
If we receive an interrupt too early before we set up ports in the probe
function, there won't be any port ready to handle it.

Only registering the irq after the ports are setup fixes the problem,
and works fine without losing any interrupts.

This causes crashes in some situations:

Commit 35f3d14db (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes)
added a slowdown for splice(socket -> pipe), as we might grow the spd
used in skb_splice_bits() for each skb we process in splice() syscall.

Its not needed since skb lengths are capped. The default on-stack arrays
are more than enough.

Use MAX_SKB_FRAGS instead of PIPE_DEF_BUFFERS to describe the reasonable
limit per skb.

Add coalescing support to help splicing of GRO skbs built from linear
skbs (linked into frag_list)

1402d36601 tcp: introduce tcp_try_coalesce
commit c8628155ec (tcp: reduce out_of_order memory use) took care of
coalescing tcp segments provided by legacy devices (linear skbs)

We extend this idea to fragged skbs, as their truesize can be heavy.

ixgbe for example uses 256+1024+PAGE_SIZE/2 = 3328 bytes per segment.

Use this coalescing strategy for receive queue too.

This contributes to reduce number of tcp collapses, at minimal cost, and
reduces memory overhead and packets drops.

2. Configure FW to strip/add default vlan according to afex vlan mode.
3. Notify link up to OS only after vif is fully initialized.
4. Support vif list set/get requests and configure FW accordingly.
5. Supply afex statistics upon request from NIC.
6. Special handling to L2 interface in case of FCoE vif.

da882c1f2e tcp: sk_add_backlog() is too agressive for TCP
While investigating TCP performance problems on 10Gb+ links, we found a
tcp sender was dropping lot of incoming ACKS because of sk_rcvbuf limit
in sk_add_backlog(), especially if receiver doesnt use GRO/LRO and sends
one ACK every two MSS segments.

A sender usually tweaks sk_sndbuf, but sk_rcvbuf stays at its default
value (87380), allowing a too small backlog.

A TCP ACK, even being small, can consume nearly same truesize space than
outgoing packets. Using sk_rcvbuf + sk_sndbuf as a limit makes sense and
is fast to compute.

Performance results on netperf, single flow, receiver with disabled
GRO/LRO : 7500 Mbits instead of 6050 Mbits, no more TCPBacklogDrop
increments at sender.

aca50bd3b4 mm: fix s390 BUG by __set_page_dirty_no_writeback on swap
Mel reports a BUG_ON(slot == NULL) in radix_tree_tag_set() on s390
3.0.13: called from __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() when page_remove_rmap()
tries to transfer dirty flag from s390 storage key to struct page and
radix_tree.

That would be because of reclaim's shrink_page_list() calling
add_to_swap() on this page at the same time: first PageSwapCache is set
(causing page_mapping(page) to appear as &swapper_space), then
page->private set, then tree_lock taken, then page inserted into
radix_tree - so there's an interval before taking the lock when the
radix_tree slot is empty.

We could fix this by moving __add_to_swap_cache()'s spin_lock_irq up
before the SetPageSwapCache.  But a better fix is simply to do what's
five years overdue: Ken Chen introduced __set_page_dirty_no_writeback()
(if !PageDirty TestSetPageDirty) for tmpfs to skip all the radix_tree
overhead, and swap is just the same - it ignores the radix_tree tag, and
does not participate in dirty page accounting, so should be using
__set_page_dirty_no_writeback() too.

s390 testing now confirms that this does indeed fix the problem.

438ced1720 ring-buffer: Add per_cpu ring buffer control files
Add a debugfs entry under per_cpu/ folder for each cpu called
buffer_size_kb to control the ring buffer size for each CPU
independently.

If the global file buffer_size_kb is used to set size, the individual
ring buffers will be adjusted to the given size. The buffer_size_kb will
report the common size to maintain backward compatibility.

If the buffer_size_kb file under the per_cpu/ directory is used to
change buffer size for a specific CPU, only the size of the respective
ring buffer is updated. When tracing/buffer_size_kb is read, it reports
'X' to indicate that sizes of per_cpu ring buffers are not equivalent.

5a26c8f0cf tracing: Remove an unneeded check in trace_seq_buffer()
memcpy() returns a pointer to "bug".  Hopefully, it's not NULL here or
we would already have Oopsed.

07d777fe8c tracing: Add percpu buffers for trace_printk()
Currently, trace_printk() uses a single buffer to write into
to calculate the size and format needed to save the trace. To
do this safely in an SMP environment, a spin_lock() is taken
to only allow one writer at a time to the buffer. But this could
also affect what is being traced, and add synchronization that
would not be there otherwise.

Ideally, using percpu buffers would be useful, but since trace_printk()
is only used in development, having per cpu buffers for something
never used is a waste of space. Thus, the use of the trace_bprintk()
format section is changed to be used for static fmts as well as dynamic ones.
Then at boot up, we can check if the section that holds the trace_printk
formats is non-empty, and if it does contain something, then we
know a trace_printk() has been added to the kernel. At this time
the trace_printk per cpu buffers are allocated. A check is also
done at module load time in case a module is added that contains a
trace_printk().

Once the buffers are allocated, they are never freed. If you use
a trace_printk() then you should know what you are doing.

A buffer is made for each type of context:

  normal
  softirq
  irq
  nmi

The context is checked and the appropriate buffer is used.
This allows for totally lockless usage of trace_printk(),
and they no longer even disable interrupts.

89b8835ec8 x32, siginfo: Provide proper overrides for x32 siginfo_t
Provide the proper override macros for x32 siginfo_t.  The combination
of a special type here and an overall alignment constraint actually
ends up with all the types being properly aligned, but the hack is
needed to keep the substructures inside siginfo_t from adding padding.

Note: use __attribute__((aligned())) since __aligned() is not exported
to user space.

30b8aa9172 md: fix possible corruption of array metadata on shutdown.
commit c744a65c1e
  md: don't set md arrays to readonly on shutdown.

removed the possibility of a 'BUG' when data is written to an array
that has just been switched to read-only, but also introduced the
possibility that the array metadata could be corrupted.

If, when md_notify_reboot gets the mddev lock, the array is
in a state where it is assembled but hasn't been started (as can
happen if the personality module is not available, or in other unusual
situations), then incorrect metadata will be written out making it
impossible to re-assemble the array.

So only call __md_stop_writes() if the array has actually been
activated.

This patch is needed for any stable kernel which has had the above
commit applied.
