E820 reservations are not related to devices, so they may overlap part of,

When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This
forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be
used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a
metadevice.
There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up
to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had
completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in
sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing
commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver.
The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing.
We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the
block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned
into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking.
Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is
removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster
flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

and use an include instead of an extra function declaration. et0macaddr
contains the mac address in text from like 00:11:22:33:44:55. We have to

There are some situations (e.g. in __pm_generic_call()), where
pm_runtime_suspended() is used to decide whether or not to execute
a device's (system) ->suspend() callback. The callback is not
executed if pm_runtime_suspended() returns true, but it does so
for devices that don't even support runtime PM, because the
power.disable_depth device field is ignored by it. This leads to
problems (i.e. devices are not suspened when they should), so rework
pm_runtime_suspended() so that it returns false if the device's
power.disable_depth field is different from zero.

[rewrote descrtion and changed object sizes and ordering - eparis]
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
The desire to keep old names for the EVIOCGKEYCODE/EVIOCSKEYCODE while
extending them to support large scancodes was a mistake. While we tried
to keep ABI intact (and we succeeded in doing that, programs compiled
on older kernels will work on newer ones) there is still a problem with
recompiling existing software with newer kernel headers.
New kernel headers will supply updated ioctl numbers and kernel will
expect that userspace will use struct input_keymap_entry to set and
retrieve keymap data. But since the names of ioctls are still the same
userspace will happily compile even if not adjusted to make use of the
new structure and will start miraculously fail in the field.
To avoid this issue let's revert EVIOCGKEYCODE/EVIOCSKEYCODE definitions
and add EVIOCGKEYCODE_V2/EVIOCSKEYCODE_V2 so that userspace can explicitly
select the style of ioctls it wants to employ.

commit b0ed7a91(ACPICA/ACPI: Add new host interfaces for _OSI suppor)
introduced a regression that _OSI string setup fails.
There are 2 paths to setup _OSI string.
DMI:
acpi_dmi_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux -> acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI
string to osi_setup_string
Boot command line:
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string
Later, acpi_osi_setup_late will be called to handle osi_setup_string.
If _OSI string is "Linux" or "!Linux", then the call path is,
acpi_osi_setup_late -> acpi_cmdline_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux ->
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string
This actually never installs _OSI string(acpi_install_interface not
called), but just copy the _OSI string to osi_setup_string.
This patch fixes the regression.

There's a long-running regression that proved difficult to fix and
which is hitting certain people and is rather annoying in its effects.
Damien reported that after 74f5187ac8 (sched: Cure load average vs
NO_HZ woes) his load average is unnaturally high, he also noted that
even with that patch reverted the load avgerage numbers are not
correct.
The problem is that the previous patch only solved half the NO_HZ
problem, it addressed the part of going into NO_HZ mode, not of
comming out of NO_HZ mode. This patch implements that missing half.
When comming out of NO_HZ mode there are two important things to take
care of:
- Folding the pending idle delta into the global active count.
- Correctly aging the averages for the idle-duration.
So with this patch the NO_HZ interaction should be complete and
behaviour between CONFIG_NO_HZ=[yn] should be equivalent.
Furthermore, this patch slightly changes the load average computation
by adding a rounding term to the fixed point multiplication.

When a nfs_page is freed, nfs_free_request is called which also calls
nfs_clear_request to clean out the lock and open contexts and free the
pagecache page.
However, a couple of places in the nfs code call nfs_clear_request
themselves. What happens here if the refcount on the request is still high?
We'll be releasing contexts and freeing pointers while the request is
possibly still in use.
Remove those bare calls to nfs_clear_context. That should only be done when
the request is being freed.
Note that when doing this, we need to watch out for tests of req->wb_page.
Previously, nfs_set_page_tag_locked() and nfs_clear_page_tag_locked()
would check the value of req->wb_page to figure out if the page is mapped
into the nfsi->nfs_page_tree. We now indicate the page is mapped using
the new bit PG_MAPPED in req->wb_flags .

FAN_NOFD is used in fanotify events that do not provide an open file
descriptor (like the overflow_event).
Signed-off-by: Lino Sanfilippo <LinoSanfilippo@gmx.de>
Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com>
When fanotify_release() is called, there may still be processes waiting for
access permission. Currently only processes for which an event has already been
queued into the groups access list will be woken up. Processes for which no
event has been queued will continue to sleep and thus cause a deadlock when
fsnotify_put_group() is called.
Furthermore there is a race allowing further processes to be waiting on the
access wait queue after wake_up (if they arrive before clear_marks_by_group()
is called).
This patch corrects this by setting a flag to inform processes that the group
is about to be destroyed and thus not to wait for access permission.
[additional changelog from eparis]
Lets think about the 4 relevant code paths from the PoV of the
'operator' 'listener' 'responder' and 'closer'. Where operator is the
process doing an action (like open/read) which could require permission.
Listener is the task (or in this case thread) slated with reading from
the fanotify file descriptor. The 'responder' is the thread responsible
for responding to access requests. 'Closer' is the thread attempting to
close the fanotify file descriptor.
The 'operator' is going to end up in:
fanotify_handle_event()
get_response_from_access()
(THIS BLOCKS WAITING ON USERSPACE)
The 'listener' interesting code path
fanotify_read()
copy_event_to_user()
prepare_for_access_response()
(THIS CREATES AN fanotify_response_event)
The 'responder' code path:
fanotify_write()
process_access_response()
(REMOVE A fanotify_response_event, SET RESPONSE, WAKE UP 'operator')
The 'closer':
fanotify_release()
(SUPPOSED TO CLEAN UP THE REST OF THIS MESS)
What we have today is that in the closer we remove all of the
fanotify_response_events and set a bit so no more response events are
ever created in prepare_for_access_response().
The bug is that we never wake all of the operators up and tell them to
move along. You fix that in fanotify_get_response_from_access(). You
also fix other operators which haven't gotten there yet. So I agree
that's a good fix.

interrupt support. Several devices have buttons connected to a GPIO
line which is not capable to generate interrupts. This patch adds a
new input driver using the generic GPIO layer and the input-polldev
to support such buttons.

* 'pm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/suspend-2.6:
PM / Hibernate: Fix memory corruption related to swap
PM / Hibernate: Use async I/O when reading compressed hibernation image
There is a problem that swap pages allocated before the creation of
a hibernation image can be released and used for storing the contents
of different memory pages while the image is being saved. Since the
kernel stored in the image doesn't know of that, it causes memory
corruption to occur after resume from hibernation, especially on
systems with relatively small RAM that need to swap often.
This issue can be addressed by keeping the GFP_IOFS bits clear
in gfp_allowed_mask during the entire hibernation, including the
saving of the image, until the system is finally turned off or
the hibernation is aborted. Unfortunately, for this purpose
it's necessary to rework the way in which the hibernate and
suspend code manipulates gfp_allowed_mask.
This change is based on an earlier patch from Hugh Dickins.
