1db8508cf4 hugetlbfs: fix build failure with !CONFIG_HUGETLBFS
Fix regression due to 5a6fe12595,
"Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNT"
which added an argument to the function hugetlb_file_setup() but not to
the macro hugetlb_file_setup().

5a6fe12595 Do not account for the address space used by hugetlbfs using VM_ACCOUNT
When overcommit is disabled, the core VM accounts for pages used by anonymous
shared, private mappings and special mappings. It keeps track of VMAs that
should be accounted for with VM_ACCOUNT and VMAs that never had a reserve
with VM_NORESERVE.

Overcommit for hugetlbfs is much riskier than overcommit for base pages
due to contiguity requirements. It avoids overcommiting on both shared and
private mappings using reservation counters that are checked and updated
during mmap(). This ensures (within limits) that hugepages exist in the
future when faults occurs or it is too easy to applications to be SIGKILLed.

As hugetlbfs makes its own reservations of a different unit to the base page
size, VM_ACCOUNT should never be set. Even if the units were correct, we would
double account for the usage in the core VM and hugetlbfs. VM_NORESERVE may
be set because an application can request no reserves be made for hugetlbfs
at the risk of getting killed later.

With commit fc8744adc8, VM_NORESERVE and
VM_ACCOUNT are getting unconditionally set for hugetlbfs-backed mappings. This
breaks the accounting for both the core VM and hugetlbfs, can trigger an
OOM storm when hugepage pools are too small lockups and corrupted counters
otherwise are used. This patch brings hugetlbfs more in line with how the
core VM treats VM_NORESERVE but prevents VM_ACCOUNT being set.

Architectures other than mips and x86 are not using ticket spinlocks.
Therefore, the contention on the lock is meaningless, since there is
nobody known to be waiting on it (arguably /fairly/ unfair locks).

Dummy it out to return 0 on other architectures.

Adds code to set up fence registers at execbuf time on pre-965 chips as
necessary.  Also fixes up a few bugs in the pre-965 tile register support
(get_order != ffs).  The number of fences available to the kernel defaults
to the hw limit minus 3 (for legacy X front/back/depth), but a new parameter
allows userspace to override that as needed.

7f9a50a5b8 module: remove over-zealous check in __module_get()
Impact: fix spurious BUG_ON() triggered under load

module_refcount() isn't reliable outside stop_machine(), as demonstrated
by Karsten Keil <kkeil@suse.de>, networking can trigger it under load
(an inc on one cpu and dec on another while module_refcount() is tallying
 can give false results, for example).

Almost noone should be using __module_get, but that's another issue.

d96f94c604 ACPI: Enable bit 11 in _PDC to advertise hw coord
Bit 11 in intel PDC definitions is meant for OS capability to handle
hardware coordination of P-states. In Linux we have always supported
hwardware coordination of P-states. Just let the BIOSes know that we
support it, by setting this bit.

Some BIOSes use this bit to choose between hardware or software coordination
and without this change below, BIOSes switch to software coordination, which
is not very optimal in terms of power consumption and extra wakeups from idle.

777c6c5f1f wait: prevent exclusive waiter starvation
With exclusive waiters, every process woken up through the wait queue must
ensure that the next waiter down the line is woken when it has finished.

Interruptible waiters don't do that when aborting due to a signal.  And if
an aborting waiter is concurrently woken up through the waitqueue, noone
will ever wake up the next waiter.

This has been observed with __wait_on_bit_lock() used by
lock_page_killable(): the first contender on the queue was aborting when
the actual lock holder woke it up concurrently.  The aborted contender
didn't acquire the lock and therefor never did an unlock followed by
waking up the next waiter.

Add abort_exclusive_wait() which removes the process' wait descriptor from
the waitqueue, iff still queued, or wakes up the next waiter otherwise.
It does so under the waitqueue lock.  Racing with a wake up means the
aborting process is either already woken (removed from the queue) and will
wake up the next waiter, or it will remove itself from the queue and the
concurrent wake up will apply to the next waiter after it.

Use abort_exclusive_wait() in __wait_event_interruptible_exclusive() and
__wait_on_bit_lock() when they were interrupted by other means than a wake
up through the queue.

1f5e31d7e5 fbmem: don't call copy_from/to_user() with mutex held
Avoid calling copy_from/to_user() with fb_info->lock mutex held in fbmem
ioctl().

fb_mmap() is called under mm->mmap_sem (A) held, that also acquires
fb_info->lock (B); fb_ioctl() takes fb_info->lock (B) and does
copy_from/to_user() that might acquire mm->mmap_sem (A), causing a
deadlock.

NOTE: it doesn't push down the fb_info->lock in each own driver's
fb_ioctl(), so there are still potential deadlocks elsewhere.

9062712fa9 libata: implement HORKAGE_1_5_GBPS and apply it to WD My Book
3Gbps is often much more prone to transmission failures.  It's usually
okay to let EH handle speed down after transmission failures but some
WD My Book drives completely shutdown after certain transmission
failures and after it only power cycling can revive them.  Combined
with the fact that external drives often end up with cable assembly
which is longer than usual and more likely to have intervening gender,
this makes these drives very likely to shutdown under certain
configurations virtually rendering them unusable.

This patch implements HOARKGE_1_5_GBPS and applies it to WD My Book
such that 1.5Gbps is forced once the device is identified.

99cf610aa4 libata: clear dev->ering in smarter way
dev->ering used to be cleared together with the rest of ata_device in
ata_dev_init() which is called whenever a probing event occurs.
dev->ering is about to be used to track probing failures so it needs
to remain persistent over multiple porbing events.  This patch
achieves this by doing the following.

* Instead of CLEAR_OFFSET, define CLEAR_BEGIN and CLEAR_END and only
  clear between BEGIN and END.  ering is moved after END.  The split
  of persistent area is to allow hotter items remain at the head.

* ering is explicitly cleared on ata_dev_disable() and when device
  attach succeeds.  So, ering is persistent throug a device's life
  time (unless explicitly cleared of course) and also through periods
  inbetween disablement of an attached device and successful detection
  of the next one.

720eba31f4 modules: Use a better scheme for refcounting
Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is
using a lot of memory.

Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines.

This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() &
percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage.

Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use
nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes.

On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce
size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module)

Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses
because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better
NUMA properties, since each  CPU will use storage on its preferred node,
thanks to percpu storage.

0afd4a21ba net: Fix userland breakage wrt. linux/if_tunnel.h
Reported by Andrew Walrond <andrew@walrond.org>

Changeset c19e654ddb
("gre: Add netlink interface") added an include
of linux/ip.h to linux/if_tunnel.h

We can't really let that get exposed to userspace
because this conflicts with types defined in netinet/ip.h
which userland is almost certainly going to have included
either explicitly or implicitly.

So guard this include with a __KERNEL__ ifdef.

94df7de028 hrtimers: allow the hot-unplugging of all cpus
Impact: fix CPU hotplug hang on Power6 testbox

On architectures that support offlining all cpus (at least powerpc/pseries),
hot-unpluging the tick_do_timer_cpu can result in a system hang.

This comes from the fact that if the cpu going down happens to be the
cpu doing the tick, then as the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happens after the
cpu is dead (via the CPU_DEAD notification), we're left without ticks,
jiffies are frozen and any task relying on timers (msleep, ...) is stuck.
That's particularly the case for the cpu looping in __cpu_die() waiting
for the dying cpu to be dead.

This patch addresses this by having the tick_do_timer_cpu handover happen
earlier during the CPU_DYING notification. For this, a new clockevent
notification type is introduced (CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_CPU_DYING) which is triggered
in hrtimer_cpu_notify().
