Whilst making an unrelated change to some Documentation, Linus sayeth:
| Afaik, even in Britain, "whilst" is unusual and considered more
| formal, and "while" is the common word.
|
| [...]
|
| Can we just admit that we work with computers, and we don't need to
| use þe eald Englisc spelling of words that most of the world never
| uses?
dictionary.com refers to the word as "Chiefly British", which is
probably an undesirable attribute for technical documentation.
Replace all occurrences under Documentation/ with "while".

In the Function documentation Section of kernel-doc.rst
there is a function_name() function as an example for
how to make a comment about a function.
But at the end of that example there is a reference to foobar
instead of function_name.
I think that should rather be function_name, because that
was the placeholder the whole example was using.

The previous version made it necessary to first generate an
EDID data set without correct CRC and then to fix the CRC in
a second step. This patch adds the CRC calculation to the
makefile in such a way that a correct EDID data set is generated
in a single build step. Successfully tested with all existing
and a couple of new data sets.

The problem was found when EDID data sets for displays other
than the provided samples were generated. The patch has
no effect on the provided samples that still match the data
used in drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid_load.c.
The provided samples use small values for XOFFSET, XPULSE,
YOFFSET and YPULSE, where the error doesn't occur. This fix
corrects the use of that values in case of high values, because
the most significant bits were treated incorrectly.
So in edid.S msbs4 should use bit 8 and 9 of XOFFSET and XPULS.
For YOFFSET and YPULSE msbs4 should use bit 4 and 5.
lsbs2 was introduced for a better overview, without
functional change.
Removing also the useless value 63 of all files, because
it is added in the *.S description files and then it is
subtracted in edid.S.

It has been reported on an older (4.12) kernel but the current upstream
code doesn't cond_resched in the hot remove code at all and the given
range to remove might be really large. Fix the issue by calling
cond_resched once per memory section.

syzbot is reporting too large memory allocation at bfs_fill_super() [1].
Since file system image is corrupted such that bfs_sb->s_start == 0,
bfs_fill_super() is trying to allocate 8MB of continuous memory. Fix
this by adding a sanity check on bfs_sb->s_start, __GFP_NOWARN and
printf().

THP allocation mode is quite complex and it depends on the defrag mode.
This complexity is hidden in alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask from a large
part currently. The NUMA special casing (namely __GFP_THISNODE) is
however independent and placed in alloc_pages_vma currently. This both
adds an unnecessary branch to all vma based page allocation requests and
it makes the code more complex unnecessarily as well. Not to mention
that e.g. shmem THP used to do the node reclaiming unconditionally
regardless of the defrag mode until recently. This was not only
unexpected behavior but it was also hardly a good default behavior and I
strongly suspect it was just a side effect of the code sharing more than
a deliberate decision which suggests that such a layering is wrong.
Get rid of the thp special casing from alloc_pages_vma and move the
logic to alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask. __GFP_THISNODE is applied to the
resulting gfp mask only when the direct reclaim is not requested and
when there is no explicit numa binding to preserve the current logic.
Please note that there's also a slight difference wrt MPOL_BIND now. The
previous code would avoid using __GFP_THISNODE if the local node was
outside of policy_nodemask(). After this patch __GFP_THISNODE is avoided
for all MPOL_BIND policies. So there's a difference that if local node
is actually allowed by the bind policy's nodemask, previously
__GFP_THISNODE would be added, but now it won't be. From the behavior
POV this is still correct because the policy nodemask is used.

ocfs2_defrag_extent() might leak allocated clusters. When the file
system has insufficient space, the number of claimed clusters might be
less than the caller wants. If that happens, the original code might
directly commit the transaction without returning clusters.
This patch is based on code in ocfs2_add_clusters_in_btree().
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: include localalloc.h, reduce scope of data_ac]

The handling of timestamps outside of the 1970..2038 range in the dlm
glue is rather inconsistent: on 32-bit architectures, this has always
wrapped around to negative timestamps in the 1902..1969 range, while on
64-bit kernels all timestamps are interpreted as positive 34 bit numbers
in the 1970..2514 year range.
Now that the VFS code handles 64-bit timestamps on all architectures, we
can make the behavior more consistent here, and return the same result
that we had on 64-bit already, making the file system y2038 safe in the
process. Outside of dlmglue, it already uses 64-bit on-disk timestamps
anway, so that part is fine.
For consistency, I'm changing ocfs2_pack_timespec() to clamp anything
outside of the supported range to the minimum and maximum values. This
avoids a possible ambiguity of values before 1970 in particular, which
used to be interpreted as times at the end of the 2514 range previously.

ocfs2_read_blocks() and ocfs2_read_blocks_sync() are both used to read
several blocks from disk. Currently, the input argument *bhs* can be
NULL or NOT. It depends on the caller's behavior. If the function
fails in reading blocks from disk, the corresponding bh will be assigned
to NULL and put.
Obviously, above process for non-NULL input bh is not appropriate.
Because the caller doesn't even know its bhs are put and re-assigned.
If buffer head is managed by caller, ocfs2_read_blocks and
ocfs2_read_blocks_sync() should not evaluate it to NULL. It will cause
caller accessing illegal memory, thus crash.

Somehow, file system metadata was corrupted, which causes
ocfs2_check_dir_entry() to fail in function ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_el().
According to the original design intention, if above happens we should
skip the problematic block and continue to retrieve dir entry. But
there is obviouse misuse of brelse around related code.
After failure of ocfs2_check_dir_entry(), current code just moves to
next position and uses the problematic buffer head again and again
during which the problematic buffer head is released for multiple times.
I suppose, this a serious issue which is long-lived in ocfs2. This may
cause other file systems which is also used in a the same host insane.
So we should also consider about bakcporting this patch into linux
-stable.

When -EIOCBQUEUED returns, it means that aio_complete() will be called
from dio_complete(), which is an asynchronous progress against
write_iter. Generally, IO is a very slow progress than executing
instruction, but we still can't take the risk to access a freed iocb.
And we do face a BUG crash issue. Using the crash tool, iocb is
obviously freed already.
