This moves __d_rcu_to_refcount() from <linux/dcache.h> into fs/namei.c
and re-implements it using the lockref infrastructure instead. It also
adds a lot of comments about what is actually going on, because turning
a dentry that was looked up using RCU into a long-lived reference
counted entry is one of the more subtle parts of the rcu walk.
We also used to be _particularly_ subtle in unlazy_walk() where we
re-validate both the dentry and its parent using the same sequence
count. We used to do it by nesting the locks and then verifying the
sequence count just once.
That was silly, because nested locking is expensive, but the sequence
count check is not. So this just re-validates the dentry and the parent
separately, avoiding the nested locking, and making the lockref lookup
possible.

A valid parent pointer is always going to have a non-zero reference
count, but if we look up the parent optimistically without locking, we
have to protect against the (very unlikely) race against renaming
changing the parent from under us.
We do that by using lockref_get_not_zero(), and then re-checking the
parent pointer after getting a valid reference.
[ This is a re-implementation of a chunk from the original patch by
Waiman Long: "dcache: Enable lockless update of dentry's refcount".
I've completely rewritten the patch-series and split it up, but I'm
attributing this part to Waiman as it's close enough to his earlier
patch - Linus ]

This behaves like "lockref_get_not_zero()", but instead of doing nothing
if the count was zero, it returns with the lock held.
This allows callers to revalidate the lockref-protected data structure
if required even if the count was zero to begin with, and possibly
increment the count if it passes muster.
In particular, the dentry code wants this when it wants to turn an
RCU-protected dentry into a stable refcounted one: if the dentry count
it zero, but the sequence number still validates the dentry, we can take
a reference to it.

This just replaces the dentry count/lock combination with the lockref
structure that contains both a count and a spinlock, and does the
mechanical conversion to use the lockref infrastructure.
There are no semantic changes here, it's purely syntactic. The
reference lockref implementation uses the spinlock exactly the same way
that the old dcache code did, and the bulk of this patch is just
expanding the internal "d_count" use in the dcache code to use
"d_lockref.count" instead.
This is purely preparation for the real change to make the reference
count updates be lockless during the 3.12 merge window.
[ As with the previous commit, this is a rewritten version of a concept
originally from Waiman, so credit goes to him, blame for any errors
goes to me.
Waiman's patch had some semantic differences for taking advantage of
the lockless update in dget_parent(), while this patch is
intentionally a pure search-and-replace change with no semantic
changes. - Linus ]

This introduces a new "lockref" structure that supports the concept of
lockless updates of reference counts that still honor an attached
spinlock.
NOTE! This reference implementation is not the optimized lockless
version, rather it is the fallback implementation using standard
spinlocks. The actual optimized versions will be merged into 3.12, but
I wanted to get the infrastructure in place and document the new
interfaces.
[ Also note that this particular commit is drastically cut-down minimal
version of the original patch by Waiman. In order to properly credit
the original author I'm marking Waiman as the author here, but in the
end this patch bears little resemblance to the patch by Waiman. So
blame any errors on me editing things down to the point where I can
introduce the infrastructure before the merge window for 3.12 actually
opens. - Linus ]

This reverts commit bb2314b47996491bbc5add73633905c3120b6268.
It wasn't necessarily wrong per se, but we're still busily discussing
the exact details of this all, so I'm going to revert it for now.
It's true that you can already do flink() through /proc and that flink()
isn't new. But as Brad Spengler points out, some secure environments do
not mount proc, and flink adds a new interface that can avoid path
lookup of the source for those kinds of environments.
We may re-do this (and even mark it for stable backporting back in 3.11
and possibly earlier) once the whole discussion about the interface is done.

The other two respectively are a one liner to fix a HVSI protocol
handshake problem causing the console to fail to show up on a bunch of

This solves a problem observed in kexec'ed kernel where 200ms timeout is
too short and bootconsole fails to initialize. Console did eventually
become workable but much later into the boot process.
Observed timeout was around 260ms, but I decided to make it a little bigger
for more reliability.
This has been tested on Power7 machine with Petitboot as a primary
bootloader and PowerNV firmware.

On 64-bit, __pa(&static_var) gets miscompiled by recent versions of
gcc as something like:
addis 3,2,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@ha
addi 3,3,.LANCHOR1+4611686018427387904@toc@l
This ends up effectively ignoring the offset, since its bottom 32 bits
are zero, and means that the result of __pa() still has 0xC in the top
nibble. This happens with gcc 4.8.1, at least.
To work around this, for 64-bit we make __pa() use an AND operator,
and for symmetry, we make __va() use an OR operator. Using an AND
operator rather than a subtraction ends up with slightly shorter code
since it can be done with a single clrldi instruction, whereas it
takes three instructions to form the constant (-PAGE_OFFSET) and add
it on. (Note that MEMORY_START is always 0 on 64-bit.)

/proc/powerpc/lparcfg is an ancient facility (though still actively used)
which allows access to some informations relative to the partition when
running underneath a PAPR compliant hypervisor.
It makes no sense on non-pseries machines. However, currently, not only
can it be created on these if the kernel has pseries support, but accessing
it on such a machine will crash due to trying to do hypervisor calls.
In fact, it should also not do HV calls on older pseries that didn't have
an hypervisor either.
Finally, it has the plumbing to be a module but is a "bool" Kconfig option.
This fixes the whole lot by turning it into a machine_device_initcall
that is only created on pseries, and adding the necessary hypervisor
check before calling the H_GET_EM_PARMS hypercall

nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of
times set to sb_nbio:
do {
wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event);
} while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);
Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
same number of times for the same sb_bio_event. Otherwise,
wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

error
Remove double call of bio_put() in nilfs_end_bio_write() for the case of
BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection. The issue was found by Dan Carpenter
and he suggests first version of the fix too.

Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g. olpc-battery) assume
that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during
probe. Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other
drivers try to use it. This was the case until it was recently moved
out of arch/x86 and restructured around commits ac2504151f5a ("Platform:
OLPC: turn EC driver into a platform_driver") and 85f90cf6ca56 ("x86:
OLPC: switch over to using new EC driver on x86").
Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the
previous behaviour.
Fixes a regression introduced in Linux-3.6 where various drivers such as
olpc-battery and olpc-xo1-sci failed to load due to an inability to
communicate with the EC. The user-visible effect was a lack of battery
monitoring, missing ebook/lid switch input devices, etc.

git://people.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-intel into drm-fixes
Just one patch that soaked for quite a bit to fix a resume issue,
resulting in gpu hangs (or worse) due to tlb containing garbage.

IP sends device configuration (see inet_fill_link_af) as an array
in the netlink information, but the indices in that array are not
exposed to userspace through any current santized header file.
It was available back in 2.6.32 (in /usr/include/linux/sysctl.h)
but was broken by:
commit 02291680ffba92e5b5865bc0c5e7d1f3056b80ec

net ipv4: Decouple ipv4 interface parameters from binary sysctl numbers
Eric was solving the sysctl problem but then the indices were re-exposed
by a later addition of devconf support for IPV4
commit 9f0f7272ac9506f4c8c05cc597b7e376b0b9f3e4
Author: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org>
Date: Tue Nov 16 04:32:48 2010 +0000
ipv4: AF_INET link address family
Putting them in /usr/include/linux/ip.h seemed the logical match
for the DEVCONF_ definitions for IPV6 in /usr/include/linux/ip6.h

rfc 4861 says the Redirected Header option is optional, so
the kernel should not drop the Redirect Message that has no
Redirected Header option. In this patch, the function
ip6_redirect_no_header() is introduced to deal with that
condition.

commit fba875591 ("disable TX in be_close()") disabled TX in be_close()
to protect be_xmit() from touching freed up queues in the AER recovery
flow. But, TX must be disabled *before* cleaning up TX completions in
the close() path, not after. This allows be_tx_compl_clean() to free up
all TX-req skbs that were notified to the HW.

This reverts commit 58ad436fcf49810aa006016107f494c9ac9013db.
It turns out that the change introduced a potential deadlock
by causing a locking dependency with netlink's cb_mutex. I
can't seem to find a way to resolve this without doing major
changes to the locking, so revert this.
