This patch is to fix the chain mode that was broken
and generated a panic. This patch reviews the chain/ring
modes now shaing the same structure and taking care
about the pointers and callbacks.

vmxnet3's netpoll driver is incorrectly coded. It directly calls
vmxnet3_do_poll, which is the driver internal napi poll routine. As the netpoll
controller method doesn't block real napi polls in any way, there is a potential
for race conditions in which the netpoll controller method and the napi poll
method run concurrently. The result is data corruption causing panics such as this
one recently observed:

The fix is to do as other drivers do, and have the poll controller call the top

On the newly introduced sama5d36, Gigabit and 10/100 Ethernet network
interfaces are probed in a different order than for the sama5d35.
Moreover, users are accustomed to this order in bootloaders and backports
for older kernel revisions.
So this patch switches DT node order as it is done for the other dual-Ethernet
sama5d3 SoC.
Better interface numbering which does not depend on DT node order is being
developed for stronger interface identification.

For non-eager fpu mode, thread's fpu state is allocated during the first
fpu usage (in the context of device not available exception). This
(math_state_restore()) can be a blocking call and hence we enable
interrupts (which were originally disabled when the exception happened),
allocate memory and disable interrupts etc.
But the eager-fpu mode, call's the same math_state_restore() from
kernel_fpu_end(). The assumption being that tsk_used_math() is always
set for the eager-fpu mode and thus avoid the code path of enabling
interrupts, allocating fpu state using blocking call and disable
interrupts etc.
But the below issue was noticed by Maarten Baert, Nate Eldredge and
few others:
If a user process dumps core on an ecrypt fs while aesni-intel is loaded,
we get a BUG() in __find_get_block() complaining that it was called with
interrupts disabled; then all further accesses to our ecrypt fs hang
and we have to reboot.
The aesni-intel code (encrypting the core file that we are writing) needs
the FPU and quite properly wraps its code in kernel_fpu_{begin,end}(),
the latter of which calls math_state_restore(). So after kernel_fpu_end(),
interrupts may be disabled, which nobody seems to expect, and they stay
that way until we eventually get to __find_get_block() which barfs.
For eager fpu, most the time, tsk_used_math() is true. At few instances
during thread exit, signal return handling etc, tsk_used_math() might
be false.
In kernel_fpu_end(), for eager-fpu, call math_state_restore()
only if tsk_used_math() is set. Otherwise, don't bother. Kernel code
path which cleared tsk_used_math() knows what needs to be done
with the fpu state.

This was an optimization that made memcpy type benchmarks a little
faster on ancient (Circa 1998) IDT Winchip CPUs. In real-life
workloads, it wasn't even noticable, and I doubt anyone is running
benchmarks on 16 year old silicon any more.
Given this code has likely seen very little use over the last decade,
let's just remove it.

The error path of uncore_type_init() frees up any allocations
that were made along the way, but it relies upon type->pmus
being set, which only happens if the function succeeds. As
type->pmus remains null in this case, the call to
uncore_type_exit will do nothing.
Moving the assignment earlier will allow us to actually free
those allocations should something go awry.

Prevent tracing of preempt_disable/enable() in sched_clock_cpu().
When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, preempt_disable/enable() are
traced and this causes trace_clock() users (and probably others) to
go into an infinite recursion. Systems with a stable sched_clock()
are not affected.

With TX VLAN offload enabled the source MAC address for frames sent using the
VLAN interface is currently set to the address of the real interface. This is
wrong since the VLAN interface may be configured with a different address.
The bug was introduced in commit 2205369a314e12fcec4781cc73ac9c08fc2b47de
("vlan: Fix header ops passthru when doing TX VLAN offload.").
This patch sets the source address before calling the create function of the

Current netback uses gso_type to check whether the skb contains
gso offload, and this is wrong. Gso_size is the right one to
check gso existence, and gso_type is only used to check gso type.
Some skbs contains nonzero gso_type and zero gso_size, current
netback would treat these skbs as gso and create wrong response
for this. This also causes ssh failure to domu from other server.

Adds support for HFSX 'HasFolderCount' flag and a corresponding
'folderCount' field in folder records. (For reference see
HFS_FOLDERCOUNT and kHFSHasFolderCountBit/kHFSHasFolderCountMask in
Apple's source code.)
Ignoring subfolder count leads to fs errors found by Mac:
...
Checking catalog hierarchy.
HasFolderCount flag needs to be set (id = 105)
(It should be 0x10 instead of 0)
Incorrect folder count in a directory (id = 2)
(It should be 7 instead of 6)
...
Steps to reproduce:
Format with "newfs_hfs -s /dev/diskXXX".
Mount in Linux.
Create a new directory in root.
Unmount.
Run "fsck_hfs /dev/diskXXX".
The patch handles directory creation, deletion, and rename.

The expected logic of proc_map_files_get_link() is either to return 0
and initialize 'path' or return an error and leave 'path' uninitialized.
By the time dname_to_vma_addr() returns 0 the corresponding vma may have
already be gone. In this case the path is not initialized but the
return value is still 0. This results in 'general protection fault'
inside d_path().

We received several reports of bad page state when freeing CMA pages
previously allocated with alloc_contig_range:
BUG: Bad page state in process Binder_A pfn:63202
page:d21130b0 count:0 mapcount:1 mapping: (null) index:0x7dfbf
page flags: 0x40080068(uptodate|lru|active|swapbacked)
Based on the page state, it looks like the page was still in use. The
page flags do not make sense for the use case though. Further debugging
showed that despite alloc_contig_range returning success, at least one
page in the range still remained in the buddy allocator.
There is an issue with isolate_freepages_block. In strict mode (which
CMA uses), if any pages in the range cannot be isolated,
isolate_freepages_block should return failure 0. The current check
keeps track of the total number of isolated pages and compares against
the size of the range:
if (strict && nr_strict_required > total_isolated)
total_isolated = 0;
After taking the zone lock, if one of the pages in the range is not in
the buddy allocator, we continue through the loop and do not increment
total_isolated. If in the last iteration of the loop we isolate more
than one page (e.g. last page needed is a higher order page), the check
for total_isolated may pass and we fail to detect that a page was
skipped. The fix is to bail out if the loop immediately if we are in
strict mode. There's no benfit to continuing anyway since we need all
pages to be isolated. Additionally, drop the error checking based on
nr_strict_required and just check the pfn ranges. This matches with
what isolate_freepages_range does.

GFP_THISNODE is for callers that implement their own clever fallback to
remote nodes. It restricts the allocation to the specified node and
does not invoke reclaim, assuming that the caller will take care of it
when the fallback fails, e.g. through a subsequent allocation request
without GFP_THISNODE set.
However, many current GFP_THISNODE users only want the node exclusive
aspect of the flag, without actually implementing their own fallback or
triggering reclaim if necessary. This results in things like page
migration failing prematurely even when there is easily reclaimable
memory available, unless kswapd happens to be running already or a
concurrent allocation attempt triggers the necessary reclaim.
Convert all callsites that don't implement their own fallback strategy
to __GFP_THISNODE. This restricts the allocation a single node too, but
at the same time allows the allocator to enter the slowpath, wake
kswapd, and invoke direct reclaim if necessary, to make the allocation
happen when memory is full.

with struct file * derived from the rest.

Our write() system call has always been atomic in the sense that you get
the expected thread-safe contiguous write, but we haven't actually
guaranteed that concurrent writes are serialized wrt f_pos accesses, so
threads (or processes) that share a file descriptor and use "write()"
concurrently would quite likely overwrite each others data.
This violates POSIX.1-2008/SUSv4 Section XSI 2.9.7 that says:
"2.9.7 Thread Interactions with Regular File Operations
All of the following functions shall be atomic with respect to each
other in the effects specified in POSIX.1-2008 when they operate on
regular files or symbolic links: [...]"
and one of the effects is the file position update.
This unprotected file position behavior is not new behavior, and nobody
has ever cared. Until now. Yongzhi Pan reported unexpected behavior to
Michael Kerrisk that was due to this.
This resolves the issue with a f_pos-specific lock that is taken by
read/write/lseek on file descriptors that may be shared across threads
or processes.

We're now blacklisting "Crucial_CT???M500SSD1" and
"Crucial_CT???M500SSD3". Also, "Micron_M500*" is blacklisted which is
about the same devices as the crucial branded ones. Let's merge the
two Crucial M500 entries and widen the match to
"Crucial_CT???M500SSD*" so that we don't have to fiddle with new
entries for similar devices.

When trying to map a bunch of instruction addresses to their respective
threads, I kept getting a lot of bogus entries [I forget the exact
reason as I patched my code months ago].
Looking through ip__resolve_ams, I noticed the check for
if (al.sym)
and realized, most times I have an al.map definition but sometimes an
al.sym is undefined. In the cases where al.sym is undefined, the loop
keeps going even though a valid al.map exists.
Modify this check to use the more reliable al.map. This fixed my bogus
entries.

The 88pm860 is a MFD device and the CODEC driver is using the regmap struct of
the parent device, hence automatic IO setup will not work and we need to
manually call snd_soc_codec_set_cache_io(). The issue was introduced in commit
f9ded3b2e7 ("ASoC: 88pm860x: Use regmap for I/O").

Now we are using devm_regulator_register(), so we don't need the *rdev[] array
to store return value of devm_regulator_register. Use a *rdev variable is
enough for checking return status.
