The Intel Mid goes in and creates a I2C device for the
MPU3050 if the input driver for MPU-3050 is activated.
As of commit:
3904b28efb2c ("iio: gyro: Add driver for the MPU-3050 gyroscope")
.. there is a proper and fully featured IIO driver for this
device, so deprecate the use of the incomplete input driver
by augmenting the device population code to react to the
presence of the IIO driver's Kconfig symbol instead.

We use sync_core() in the alternatives code to stop speculative
execution of prefetched instructions because we are potentially changing
them and don't want to execute stale bytes.
What it does on most machines is call CPUID which is a serializing
instruction. And that's expensive.
However, the instruction cache is serialized when we're on the local CPU
and are changing the data through the same virtual address. So then, we
don't need the serializing CPUID but a simple control flow change. Last
being accomplished with a CALL/RET which the noinline causes.

There is a feature in Hyper-V ('Debug-VM --InjectNonMaskableInterrupt')
which injects NMI to the guest. We may want to crash the guest and do kdump
on this NMI by enabling unknown_nmi_panic. To make kdump succeed we need to
allow the kdump kernel to re-establish VMBus connection so it will see
VMBus devices (storage, network,..).
To properly unload VMBus making it possible to start over during kdump we
need to do the following:
- Send an 'unload' message to the hypervisor. This can be done on any CPU
so we do this the crashing CPU.
- Receive the 'unload finished' reply message. WS2012R2 delivers this
message to the CPU which was used to establish VMBus connection during
module load and this CPU may differ from the CPU sending 'unload'.
Receiving a VMBus message means the following:
- There is a per-CPU slot in memory for one message. This slot can in
theory be accessed by any CPU.
- We get an interrupt on the CPU when a message was placed into the slot.
- When we read the message we need to clear the slot and signal the fact
to the hypervisor. In case there are more messages to this CPU pending
the hypervisor will deliver the next message. The signaling is done by
writing to an MSR so this can only be done on the appropriate CPU.
To avoid doing cross-CPU work on crash we have vmbus_wait_for_unload()
function which checks message slots for all CPUs in a loop waiting for the
'unload finished' messages. However, there is an issue which arises when
these conditions are met:
- We're crashing on a CPU which is different from the one which was used
to initially contact the hypervisor.
- The CPU which was used for the initial contact is blocked with interrupts
disabled and there is a message pending in the message slot.
In this case we won't be able to read the 'unload finished' message on the
crashing CPU. This is reproducible when we receive unknown NMIs on all CPUs
simultaneously: the first CPU entering panic() will proceed to crash and
all other CPUs will stop themselves with interrupts disabled.
The suggested solution is to handle unknown NMIs for Hyper-V guests on the
first CPU which gets them only. This will allow us to rely on VMBus
interrupt handler being able to receive the 'unload finish' message in
case it is delivered to a different CPU.
The issue is not reproducible on WS2016 as Debug-VM delivers NMI to the
boot CPU only, WS2012R2 and earlier Hyper-V versions are affected.

When an NFS4ERR_BAD_SEQID is received the open-owner is removed from
the ->state_owners rbtree so that it will no longer be used.
If any stateids attached to this open-owner are still in use, and if a
request using one gets an NFS4ERR_BAD_STATEID reply, this can for bad.
The state is marked as needing recovery and the nfs4_state_manager()
is scheduled to clean up. nfs4_state_manager() finds states to be
recovered by walking the state_owners rbtree. As the open-owner is
not in the rbtree, the bad state is not found so nfs4_state_manager()
completes having done nothing. The request is then retried, with a
predicatable result (indefinite retries).
If the stateid is for a delegation, this open_owner will be used
to open files when the delegation is returned. For that to work,
a new open-owner needs to be presented to the server.
This patch changes NFS4ERR_BAD_SEQID handling to leave the open-owner
in the rbtree but updates the 'create_time' so it looks like a new
open-owner. With this the indefinite retries no longer happen.

If a file has both flock locks and OFD locks, then it is possible that
two different nfs4 lock states could apply to file accesses from a
single process.
It is not possible to know, efficiently, which one is "correct".
Presumably the state which represents a lock that covers the region
undergoing IO would be the "correct" one to use, but finding that has
a non-trivial cost and would provide miniscule value.
Currently we just return whichever is first in the list, which could
result in inconsistent behaviour if an application ever put it self in
this position. As consistent behaviour is preferable (when perfectly
correct behaviour is not available), change the search to return a
consistent result in this circumstance.
Specifically: if there is both a flock and OFD lock state, always return
the flock one.

Various places assume that if nfs4_fl_prepare_ds() turns a non-NULL 'ds',
then ds->ds_clp will also be non-NULL.
This is not necessasrily true in the case when the process received a fatal signal
while nfs4_pnfs_ds_connect is waiting in nfs4_wait_ds_connect().
In that case ->ds_clp may not be set, and the devid may not recently have been marked
unavailable.
So add a test for ds_clp == NULL and return NULL in that case.

If we successfully updated the change attribute, we should timestamp the
cache. While we do know that the other attributes are not completely up
to date, we have the NFS_INO_INVALID_ATTR flag that let us know that,
so it is valid to say that the cache has not timed out.
We can also clear NFS_INO_REVAL_PAGECACHE, since our change attribute
is now known to be valid.
Conversely, if the change attribute did not match, we should make sure to
also revalidate the access and ACL caches.

which are captured in MMU and Cache Build Configuration Registers respectively.
This was used in boot code to check for configurations mismatches,

Partitions that are not aligned to the blocksize of a device may cause
invalid I/O requests because the blocklayer cares only about alignment
within the partition when building requests on partitions.
device
|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|
partition offset 512byte
|-512-|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|--------4096--------|
When reading/writing one 4k block of the partition this maps to
reading/writing with an offset of 512 byte of the device leading to
unaligned requests for the device which in turn may cause unexpected
behavior of the device driver.
For DASD devices we have to translate the block number into a cylinder,
head, record format. The unaligned requests lead to wrong calculation
and therefore to misdirected I/O. In a "good" case this leads to I/O
errors because the underlying hardware detects the wrong addressing.
In a worst case scenario this might destroy data on the device.
To prevent partitions that are not aligned to the physical blocksize
of a device check for the alignment in the blkpg_ioctl.

The WRITE_SAME commands are not present in the blk_default_cmd_filter
write_ok list, and thus are failed with -EPERM when the SG_IO ioctl()
is executed without CAP_SYS_RAWIO capability (e.g., unprivileged users).
[ sg_io() -> blk_fill_sghdr_rq() > blk_verify_command() -> -EPERM ]
The problem can be reproduced with the sg_write_same command
# sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda
#
# capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \
'sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda'
Write same: pass through os error: Operation not permitted
#
For comparison, the WRITE_VERIFY command does not observe this problem,
since it is in that list:
# capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \
'sg_write_verify --num 1 --ilen 512 --lba 0 /dev/sda'
#
So, this patch adds the WRITE_SAME commands to the list, in order
for the SG_IO ioctl to finish successfully:
# capsh --drop=cap_sys_rawio -- -c \
'sg_write_same --num 1 --xferlen 512 /dev/sda'
#
That case happens to be exercised by QEMU KVM guests with 'scsi-block' devices
(qemu "-device scsi-block" [1], libvirt "<disk type='block' device='lun'>" [2]),
which employs the SG_IO ioctl() and runs as an unprivileged user (libvirt-qemu).
In that scenario, when a filesystem (e.g., ext4) performs its zero-out calls,
which are translated to write-same calls in the guest kernel, and then into
SG_IO ioctls to the host kernel, SCSI I/O errors may be observed in the guest:

Currently the read operation on the message debug file returns error if
there's no data ready to be read. It expects the userspace to retry if
it fails. Since the mailbox response could be asynchronous, it would be
good to add support to block the read until the data is available.
We can also implement poll file operations so that the userspace can
wait to become ready to perform any I/O.
This patch implements the poll and fasync file operation callback for
the test mailbox device.

The PDC driver is a mailbox controller. A mailbox controller
can report that a mailbox message has been "transmitted" either when
a tx interrupt fires or by having the mailbox framework poll. This
commit converts the PDC driver to the poll method. We found that the
tx interrupt happens when the descriptors are read by the SPU hw. Thus,
the interrupt method does not allow more than one tx message in the PDC
tx DMA ring at a time. To keep the SPU hw busy, we would like to keep
the tx ring full under heavy load.
With the poll method, the PDC driver responds that the previous message
has been transmitted if the tx ring has space for another message.
SPU request messages take a variable number of descriptors. If 15
descriptors are available, there is a good chance another message will
fit. Also increased the ring size from 128 to 512 descriptors.
With this change, I found the PDC driver hangs on its spinlock under
heavy load. The PDC spinlock is not required; so I removed it. Calls
to pdc_send_data() are already synchronized because of the channel
spinlock in the mailbox framework. Other references to ring indexes
should not require locking because they only written on either the
tx or rx side.

Minor fix to ensure that debugfs stats pseudo-files are
removed when driver module is unloaded. Previously, the call to
debugfs_remove_recursive() was never being called since the
directory was not empty, and a seg fault would occur if another
process tried to access these leftover files.

Ensure that DMA is disabled, and pointers reset, when changing
DMA base addresses in pdc_ring_init(). This allows a mailbox client
to be re-inserted after being removed. Otherwise, the DMA doesn't
restart so the client hangs while being reinserted.
