d_splice_alias() callers expect it to either stash the inode reference
into a new alias, or drop the inode reference. That makes it possible
to just return d_splice_alias() result from ->lookup() instance, without
any extra housekeeping required.
Unfortunately, that should include the failure exits. If d_splice_alias()
returns an error, it leaves the dentry it has been given negative and
thus it *must* drop the inode reference. Easily fixed, but it goes way
back and will need backporting.

Code before the .fixup section needs to have the .insn directive.
This has no side effects on MIPS32/64 but it affects the way microMIPS
loads the address for the return label.
Fixes the following build problem:
mips-linux-gnu-ld: arch/mips/built-in.o: .fixup+0x4a0: Unsupported jump between
ISA modes; consider recompiling with interlinking enabled.
mips-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: Bad value

When CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP is enabled, the following compilation error
occurs:

Add a simple read-only counter to super_block that indicates how deep this
is in the stack of filesystems. Previously ecryptfs was the only stackable
filesystem and it explicitly disallowed multiple layers of itself.
Overlayfs, however, can be stacked recursively and also may be stacked
on top of ecryptfs or vice versa.
To limit the kernel stack usage we must limit the depth of the
filesystem stack. Initially the limit is set to 2.

Add support for statfs to the overlayfs filesystem. As the upper layer
is the target of all write operations assume that the space in that
filesystem is the space in the overlayfs. There will be some inaccuracy as
overwriting a file will copy it up and consume space we were not expecting,
but it is better than nothing.
Use the upper layer dentry and mount from the overlayfs root inode,
passing the statfs call to that filesystem.

Overlayfs allows one, usually read-write, directory tree to be
overlaid onto another, read-only directory tree. All modifications
go to the upper, writable layer.
This type of mechanism is most often used for live CDs but there's a
wide variety of other uses.
The implementation differs from other "union filesystem"
implementations in that after a file is opened all operations go
directly to the underlying, lower or upper, filesystems. This
simplifies the implementation and allows native performance in these
cases.
The dentry tree is duplicated from the underlying filesystems, this
enables fast cached lookups without adding special support into the
VFS. This uses slightly more memory than union mounts, but dentries
are relatively small.
Currently inodes are duplicated as well, but it is a possible
optimization to share inodes for non-directories.
Opening non directories results in the open forwarded to the
underlying filesystem. This makes the behavior very similar to union
mounts (with the same limitations vs. fchmod/fchown on O_RDONLY file
descriptors).
Usage:
mount -t overlayfs overlayfs -olowerdir=/lower,upperdir=/upper/upper,workdir=/upper/work /overlay
The following cotributions have been folded into this patch:

AV:
- ovl_copy_up_locked() - dput(ERR_PTR(...)) on two failure exits
- ovl_clear_empty() - one failure exit forgetting to do unlock_rename(),
lack of check for udir being the parent of upper, dropping and regaining
the lock on udir (which would require _another_ check for parent being
right).
- bogus d_drop() in copyup and rename [fix from your mail]
- copyup/remove and copyup/rename races [fix from your mail]
- ovl_dir_fsync() leaving ERR_PTR() in ->realfile
- ovl_entry_free() is pointless - it's just a kfree_rcu()
- fold ovl_do_lookup() into ovl_lookup()

Whiteout isn't actually a new file type, but is represented as a char
device (Linus's idea) with 0/0 device number.
This has several advantages compared to introducing a new whiteout file
type:
- no userspace API changes (e.g. trivial to make backups of upper layer
filesystem, without losing whiteouts)
- no fs image format changes (you can boot an old kernel/fsck without
whiteout support and things won't break)
- implementation is trivial

"The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a
function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong

Some header file declarations included the "weak" attribute. That's
error-prone because it causes every implementation to be weak, with no
strong version at all, and the linker chooses one based on link order.
What we want is the "weak" attribute only on the *definition* of the

Using a VID value that is not high enough for the requested P state can
cause machine checks. Add a ceiling function to ensure calulated VIDs
with fractional values are set to the next highest integer VID value.
The algorythm for calculating the non-trubo VID from the BIOS writers
guide is:
vid_ratio = (vid_max - vid_min) / (max_pstate - min_pstate)
vid = ceiling(vid_min + (req_pstate - min_pstate) * vid_ratio)

Code which changes policy to powersave changes also max_policy_pct based on
max_freq. Code which change max_perf_pct has upper limit base on value
max_policy_pct. When policy is changing from powersave back to performance
then max_policy_pct is not changed. Which means that changing max_perf_pct is
not possible to high values if max_freq was too low in powersave policy.
Test case:
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
800000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
3300000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
performance
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
100
$ echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
$ echo 800000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
$ echo 20 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
powersave
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
800000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
20
$ echo performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
$ echo 3300000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
$ echo 100 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
performance
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
3300000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
24
And now intel_pstate driver allows to set maximal value for max_perf_pct based
on max_policy_pct which is 24 for previous powersave max_freq 800000.
This patch will set default value for max_policy_pct when setting policy to
performance so it will allow to set also max value for max_perf_pct.

When mac80211 wants to ensure that a frame is sent, it calls
the flush() callback. Until now, iwldvm implemented this by
waiting that all the frames are sent (ACKed or timeout).
In case of weak signal, this can take a significant amount
of time, delaying the next connection (in case of roaming).
Many users have reported that the flush would take too long
leading to the following error messages to be printed:
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues Q 2
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Current SW read_ptr 161 write_ptr 201
iwl data: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 fe ff 01 00 00 00 00 00
[snip]
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: FH TRBs(0) = 0x00000000
[snip]
iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: Q 0 is active and mapped to fifo 3 ra_tid 0x0000 [9,9]
[snip]
Instead of waiting for these packets, simply drop them. This
significantly improves the responsiveness of the network.
Note that all the queues are flushed, but the VO one. This
is not typically used by the applications and it likely
contains management frames that are useful for connection
or roaming.
This bug is tracked here:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56581
But it is duplicated in distributions' trackers.
A simple search in Ubuntu's database led to these bugs:

Don't add the time event to the list. We added it several
times the same time event, which leads to an infinite loop
when walking the list.
Since we (currently) don't support more than one ROC for STA
vif at a time, enforce this and don't add the time event
to any list.
We were also missing the locking of the mutex which led to
a lockdep splat - fix that.

The tx power should be limited from many reasons.
currently, setting the tx power is available by the mvm only for
station interface. Adding the tx power condition to
bss_info_changed_ap_ibss make it available also for AP.

The probe requests sent during scan must get BT prio 3.
Fix that.

The LTR is the handshake between the device and the root
complex about the latency allowed when the bus exits power
save. This configuration was missing and this led to high
latency in the link power up. The end user could experience
high latency in the network because of this.

The malta-amon.c file provides functions to access the YAMON Monitoring
interface to bring up secondary VPEs in case of SMP/CMP. As a
result of which, there is no need to build it if CMP is not used.
