Add comments that dirty bit in storage key gets set whenever page content

look at one of the two places where we comment on this.

If we hot-remove memory only and leave the cpus alive, the corresponding
node will not be removed. But the node_start_pfn and node_spanned_pages
in pg_data will be reset to 0. In this case, when we hot-add the memory
back next time, the node_start_pfn will always be 0 because no pfn is less
than 0. After that, if we hot-remove the memory again, it will cause
kernel panic in function find_biggest_section_pfn() when it tries to scan
all the pfns.
The zone will also have the same problem.
This patch sets start_pfn to the start_pfn of the section being added when
spanned_pages of the zone or pg_data is 0.
---How to reproduce---
1. hot-add a container with some memory and cpus;
2. hot-remove the container's memory, and leave cpus there;
3. hot-add these memory again;
4. hot-remove them again;
then, the kernel will panic.

SLUB only focuses on the nodes which have normal memory and it ignores the
other node's hot-adding and hot-removing.
Aka: if some memory of a node which has no onlined memory is online, but
this new memory onlined is not normal memory (for example, highmem), we
should not allocate kmem_cache_node for SLUB.
And if the last normal memory is offlined, but the node still has memory,
we should remove kmem_cache_node for that node. (The current code delays
it when all of the memory is offlined)
So we only do something when marg->status_change_nid_normal > 0.
marg->status_change_nid is not suitable here.
The same problem doesn't exist in SLAB, because SLAB allocates kmem_list3
for every node even the node don't have normal memory, SLAB tolerates
kmem_list3 on alien nodes. SLUB only focuses on the nodes which have
normal memory, it don't tolerate alien kmem_cache_node. The patch makes
SLUB become self-compatible and avoids WARNs and BUGs in rare conditions.

Currently memory_hotplug only manages the node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY], it
forgets to manage node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY]. This may cause
node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] to become incorrect.
Example, if a node is empty before online, and we online a memory which is
in ZONE_NORMAL. And after online, node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] is correct,
but node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] is incorrect, the online code doesn't set
the new online node to node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY].
The same thing will happen when offlining (the offline code doesn't clear
the node from node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] when needed). Some memory
managment code depends node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY], so we have to fix up
the node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY].
We add node_states_check_changes_online() and
node_states_check_changes_offline() to detect whether
node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] and node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] are changed
while hotpluging.
Also add @status_change_nid_normal to struct memory_notify, thus the
memory hotplug callbacks know whether the node_states[N_NORMAL_MEMORY] are
changed. (We can add a @flags and reuse @status_change_nid instead of
introducing @status_change_nid_normal, but it will add much more
complexity in memory hotplug callback in every subsystem. So introducing
@status_change_nid_normal is better and it doesn't change the sematics of
@status_change_nid)

We use __free_page() to put a page to buddy system when onlining pages.
__free_page() will store NR_FREE_PAGES in zone's pcp.vm_stat_diff, so we
should allocate zone's pcp before onlining pages, otherwise we will lose
some free pages.

If sparse memory vmemmap is enabled, we can't free the memory to store
struct page when a memory device is hotremoved, because we may store
struct page in the memory to manage the memory which doesn't belong to
this memory device. When we hotadded this memory device again, we will
reuse this memory to store struct page, and struct page may contain some
obsolete information, and we will get bad-page state:

warning
When calling unregister_node(), the function shows following message at
device_release().
"Device 'node2' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must
be fixed."
The reason is node's device struct does not have a release() function.
So the patch registers node_device_release() to the device's release()
function for suppressing the warning message. Additionally, the patch
adds memset() to initialize a node struct into register_node(). Because
the node struct is part of node_devices[] array and it cannot be freed by
node_device_release(). So if system reuses the node struct, it has a
garbage.

NR_FREE_PAGES will be wrong after offlining pages. We add/dec
NR_FREE_PAGES like this now:
1. move all pages in buddy system to MIGRATE_ISOLATE, and dec NR_FREE_PAGES
2. don't add NR_FREE_PAGES when it is freed and the migratetype is
MIGRATE_ISOLATE
3. dec NR_FREE_PAGES when offlining isolated pages.
4. add NR_FREE_PAGES when undoing isolate pages.
When we come to step 3, all pages are in MIGRATE_ISOLATE list, and
NR_FREE_PAGES are right. When we come to step4, all pages are not in
buddy system, so we don't change NR_FREE_PAGES in this step, but we change
NR_FREE_PAGES in step3. So NR_FREE_PAGES is wrong after offlining pages.
So there is no need to change NR_FREE_PAGES in step3.
This patch also fixs a problem in step2: if the migratetype is
MIGRATE_ISOLATE, we should not add NR_FRR_PAGES when we remove pages from
pcppages.

When a memory block is onlined, we will try allocate memory on that node
to store page_cgroup. If onlining the memory block failed, we don't
offline the page cgroup, and we have no chance to offline this page cgroup
unless the memory block is onlined successfully again. It will cause that
we can't hot-remove the memory device on that node, because some memory is
used to store page cgroup. If onlining the memory block is failed, there
is no need to stort page cgroup for this memory. So auto offline
page_cgroup when onlining memory block failed.

hwpoisoned may be set when we offline a page by the sysfs interface
/sys/devices/system/memory/soft_offline_page or
/sys/devices/system/memory/hard_offline_page. If we don't clear
this flag when onlining pages, this page can't be freed, and will

should skip such page when offlining pages.

"Device 'memory528' does not have a release() function, it is broken and

The reason is memory_block's device struct does not have a release()

So the patch registers memory_block_release() to the device's release()

moves kfree(mem) into the release function since the release function is

Before the patch, it's hard (for me, at least) to say why all these free
chunks weren't considered for allocation:
Normal: 0*4kB 0*8kB 0*16kB 0*32kB 0*64kB 0*128kB 1*256kB 1*512kB
1*1024kB 1*2048kB 3*4096kB = 16128kB
After the patch, it's obvious that the reason is that all of these are
in the MIGRATE_CMA (C) freelist:
Normal: 0*4kB 0*8kB 0*16kB 0*32kB 0*64kB 0*128kB 1*256kB (C) 1*512kB

receipt of RX_E_STOP. In Rx stop_wait state, on receipt of
RX_E_STARTED event does enet stop
RX_E_STOPPED event does rx_cleanup_cbfn
rx_cleanup_cbfn in this case is called without post_cbfn. post_cbfn
happens only after RX_E_STARTED event is received in start_wait. Without
doing post_cbfn, NAPI remains disabled and in cleanup we try to disable
again causing endless wait. ifconfig process and other workers can thus
get stuck.
- Introducing start_stop_wait state for Rx. This state handles the case of
if post_cbfn is not done simply do stop without the cleanup.

I installed Fedora 17 which no longer supports grub v1. I worked
with grub2 for a while, but there's so many issues with it and automated
rebooting, that I decided to switch to syslinux. Instead of using

On CPUs without support for unrestricted guests DPL cannot be smaller
than RPL for data segments during guest entry, but this state can occurs
if a data segment selector changes while vcpu is in real mode to a value
with lowest two bits != 00. Fix that by forcing DPL == RPL on transition
to protected mode.
This is a regression introduced by c865c43de66dc97.

Pull USB patches from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here's the big set of USB patches for 3.8-rc1.
Lots of USB host driver cleanups in here, and a bit of a reorg of the
EHCI driver to make it easier for the different EHCI platform drivers
to all work together nicer, which was a reduction in overall code. We
also deleted some unused firmware files, and got rid of the very old
file_storage usb gadget driver that had been broken for a long time.
This means we ended up removing way more code than added, always a
nice thing to see:

Other than that, the usual set of new device ids, driver fixes, gadget

older drivers (telephony and rts_pstor), and added a new one (fwserial

Pull driver core updates from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here's the large driver core updates for 3.8-rc1.
The biggest thing here is the various __dev* marking removals. This
is going to be a pain for the merge with different subsystem trees, I
know, but all of the patches included here have been ACKed by their
various subsystem maintainers, as they wanted them to go through here.
If this is too much of a pain, I can pull all of them out of this tree
and just send you one with the other fixes/updates and then, after
3.8-rc1 is out, do the rest of the removals to ensure we catch them
all, it's up to you. The merges should all be trivial, and Stephen
has been doing them all in linux-next for a few weeks now quite
easily.
Other than the __dev* marking removals, there's nothing major here,
some firmware loading updates and other minor things in the driver
core.
All of these have (much to Stephen's annoyance), been in linux-next
for a while.

Due to my recent commit (ath9k: allow to load EEPROM
content via firmware API) smatch complains about that
the 'pdata' variable in 'ath9k_hw_init' can be NULL
and it is dereferenced before checking that. That is
absolutely correct.
Check the 'pdata' variable before using it to avoid
a NULL pointer dereference.
