The procfs debug code in rtl_debug.c is, ironically, very buggy: it lacks proper locking.
Since the most useful part of the code (the stats) are available through more
standard APIs, I think it is best to just delete the whole mess.

* new field - pipe->files; number of struct file over that pipe (all
sharing the same inode, of course); protected by inode->i_lock.
* pipe_release() decrements pipe->files, clears inode->i_pipe when
if the counter has reached 0 (all under ->i_lock) and, in that case,
frees pipe after having done pipe_unlock()
* fifo_open() starts with grabbing ->i_lock, and either bumps pipe->files
if ->i_pipe was non-NULL or allocates a new pipe (dropping and regaining
->i_lock) and rechecks ->i_pipe; if it's still NULL, inserts new pipe
there, otherwise bumps ->i_pipe->files and frees the one we'd allocated.
At that point we know that ->i_pipe is non-NULL and won't go away, so
we can do pipe_lock() on it and proceed as we used to. If we end up
failing, decrement pipe->files and if it reaches 0 clear ->i_pipe and
free the sucker after pipe_unlock().

... lest we get livelocks between path_is_under() and d_path() and friends.
The thing is, wrt fairness lglocks are more similar to rwsems than to rwlocks;
it is possible to have thread B spin on attempt to take lock shared while thread
A is already holding it shared, if B is on lower-numbered CPU than A and there's
a thread C spinning on attempt to take the same lock exclusive.
As the result, we need consistent ordering between vfsmount_lock (lglock) and
rename_lock (seq_lock), even though everything that takes both is going to take
vfsmount_lock only shared.

Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
This series contains updates to ixgbevf and igb.
The ixgbevf calls to pci_disable_msix() and to free the msix_entries
memory should not occur if device open fails. Instead they should be
called during device driver removal to balance with the call to
pci_enable_msix() and the call to allocate msix_entries memory
during the device probe and driver load.
The remaining 4 of 5 igb patches are simple 1-3 line patches to fix
several issues such as possible null pointer dereference, PHC stopping
on max frequency, make sensor info static and SR-IOV initialization
reordering.
The remaining igb patch to fix anti-spoofing config fixes a problem
in i350 where anti spoofing configuration was written into a wrong
register.
