cdf66442fa NFS4: Set parsed mount data version to 4
This patch only affects mounting through "-t nfs4" since it doesn't set
up an nfs version to use in the mount data.  The nfs client was trying
to mount using NFS v0, causing either a BUG() or a protocol not
supported message.

08106ac7c8 NFSv4.1: Convert a trivial printk into a dprintk
There is no need to bug the user about the server returning an error
on destroy_session. The error will be handled by the state manager,
without any need for further input from anyone else.
So convert that printk into a debugging dprintk.

029c534737 NFSv4: Fix up decode_attr_mdsthreshold
Fix an incorrect use of 'likely()'. The FATTR4_WORD2_MDSTHRESHOLD
bit is only expected in NFSv4.1 OPEN calls, and so is actually
rather _unlikely_.

decode_attr_mdsthreshold needs to clear FATTR4_WORD2_MDSTHRESHOLD
from the attribute bitmap after it has decoded the data.

1549210fcc NFSv4: Fix an Oops in the open recovery code
The open recovery code does not need to request a new value for the
mdsthreshold, and so does not allocate a struct nfs4_threshold.
The problem is that encode_getfattr_open() will still request an
mdsthreshold, and so we end up Oopsing in decode_attr_mdsthreshold.

This patch fixes encode_getfattr_open so that it doesn't request an
mdsthreshold when the caller isn't asking for one. It also fixes
decode_attr_mdsthreshold so that it errors if the server returns
an mdsthreshold that we didn't ask for (instead of Oopsing).

Pull Sparc updates from David S. Miller:

 1) Remove the idiotic situation wherein Leon was a special case in all
    of the TLB/cache handling code.

    The worst side effect of this bogosity is that you couldn't build a
    kernel with Leon support enabled (to get better build coverage), and
    test boot it on a non-LEON cpu.

    Leon is, in all core respects, programatically identical to the
    32-bit SRMMU.  Except that they put the TLB registers in a different
    alternate address space location.

    Through code patching (for fast paths) and run time checks, this
    issue is now a thing of the past.

    From Sam Ravnborg.

 2) There was a mis-merge of arch/sparc/Kconfig for one of the
    clockevents changes that went in, causing 32-bit sparc to start
    failing to build.

    I merged in your tree to get those clockevents changes (and added a
    note to the merge commit) then added Stephen Rothwell's fix for the
    merge error.

 3) Software quad floating point emulation was not working properly on
    more recent Niagara chips, because the way the situation is reported
    by the cpu has changed.

    Nobody noticed because gcc emits calls to software emulation
    routines in glibc.

4523e14585 mm: fix vma_resv_map() NULL pointer
hugetlb_reserve_pages() can be used for either normal file-backed
hugetlbfs mappings, or MAP_HUGETLB.  In the MAP_HUGETLB, semi-anonymous
mode, there is not a VMA around.  The new call to resv_map_put() assumed
that there was, and resulted in a NULL pointer dereference:

This was reported by Dave Jones, but was reproducible with the

first place.

With this, the oops is gone, and the output of libhugetlbfs's
run_tests.py is identical to plain 3.4 again.

[ Marked for stable, since this was introduced by commit c50ac05081
  ("hugetlb: fix resv_map leak in error path") which was also marked for

fa83523f45 x86/mm/pat: Improve scaling of pat_pagerange_is_ram()
Function pat_pagerange_is_ram() scales poorly to large address
ranges, because it probes the resource tree for each page.

On a 2.6 GHz Opteron, this function consumes 34 ms for a 1 GB range.

It is called twice during untrack_pfn_vma(), slowing process
cleanup and handicapping the OOM killer.

This replacement consumes less than 1ms, under the same conditions.

14674e7011 i2c: Split I2C_M_NOSTART support out of I2C_FUNC_PROTOCOL_MANGLING
Since there are uses for I2C_M_NOSTART which are much more sensible and
standard than most of the protocol mangling functionality (the main one
being gather writes to devices where something like a register address
needs to be inserted before a block of data) create a new I2C_FUNC_NOSTART
for this feature and update all the users to use it.

Also strengthen the disrecommendation of the protocol mangling while we're
at it.

In the case of regmap-i2c we remove the requirement for mangling as
I2C_M_NOSTART is the only mangling feature which is being used.

838bfa6049 i2c-dev: Add support for I2C_M_RECV_LEN
As the bus driver side implementation of I2C_M_RECV_LEN is heavily
tied to SMBus, we can't support received length over 32 bytes, but
let's at least support that.

In practice, the caller will have to setup a buffer large enough to
cover the case where received length byte has value 32, so minimum
32 + 1 = 33 bytes, possibly more if there is a fixed number of bytes
added for the specific slave (for example a checksum.)

1896d256d3 s390/cmpxchg: fix sign extension bugs
For 1 and 2 byte operands for xchg and cmpxchg the old and new values
get or'ed into the larger 4 byte old value before the compare and swap
instruction gets executed. This is done without using the proper byte
mask before or'ing the values.
If the caller passed in negative old or new values these got sign
extended by the caller. Which in turn means that either the old value
never matches, or, even worse, unrelated bytes would be changed in memory.

Luckily there don't seem to be any callers around yet, since that would
have resulted in the specification exception fixed in an earlies patch.

bf3db85311 s390/cmpxchg: fix 1 and 2 byte memory accesses
When accessing a 1 or 2 byte memory operand we cannot use the
passed address since the compare and swap instruction only works
for 4 byte aligned memory operands.
Hence we calculate an aligned address so that compare and swap works
correctly. However we don't pass the calculated address to the inline
assembly. This results in incorrect memory accesses and in a
specification exception if used on non 4 byte aligned memory operands.

Since this didn't happen until now, there don't seem to be
too many users of cmpxchg on unaligned addresses.

6b894a409e s390/cmpxchg: fix compile warnings specific to s390
The cmpxchg macros and functions are a bit different than on other
architectures. In particular the macros do not store the return
value of a __cmpxchg function call in a variable before returning the
value.

This causes compile warnings that only occur on s390 like this one:

net/ipv4/af_inet.c: In function 'build_ehash_secret':
net/ipv4/af_inet.c:241:2: warning: value computed is not used [-Wunused-value]

To get rid of these warnings use the same construct that we already use
for the xchg macro, which was introduced for the same reason.

First the attribute only contains the cpu capability of primary cpus,
which however is not necessarily (or better: unlikely) the type of
cpu the kernel runs on, which is typically an IFL.
In addition all information that is necessary is available in
/proc/sysinfo already. So this attribute partially duplicated
informations.
So programs should look into the sysinfo file to retrieve all
informations they are interested in.

Since with this kernel release also the powersavings cpu attributes
are removed this seems to be a good opportunity to remove another
broken interface.
