save_stack_trace() stores the instruction pointer, not the

As reported by Anton Blanchard when we use
percpu_counter_read_positive() to make our orphan socket limit checks,
the check can be off by up to num_cpus_online() * batch (which is 32
by default) which on a 128 cpu machine can be as large as the default
orphan limit itself.
Fix this by doing the full expensive sum check if the optimized check
triggers.

cwq->nr_active is used to keep track of how many work items are active
for the cpu workqueue, where 'active' is defined as either pending on
global worklist or executing. This is used to implement the
max_active limit and workqueue freezing. If a work item is queued
after nr_active has already reached max_active, the work item doesn't
increment nr_active and is put on the delayed queue and gets activated
later as previous active work items retire.
try_to_grab_pending() which is used in the cancellation path
unconditionally decremented nr_active whether the work item being
cancelled is currently active or delayed, so cancelling a delayed work
item makes nr_active underflow. This breaks max_active enforcement
and triggers BUG_ON() in destroy_workqueue() later on.
This patch fixes this bug by adding a flag WORK_STRUCT_DELAYED, which
is set while a work item in on the delayed list and making
try_to_grab_pending() decrement nr_active iff the work item is
currently active.
The addition of the flag enlarges cwq alignment to 256 bytes which is
getting a bit too large. It's scheduled to be reduced back to 128
bytes by merging WORK_STRUCT_PENDING and WORK_STRUCT_CWQ in the next
devel cycle.

We used to use i_head_snapc to keep track of which snapc the current epoch
of dirty data was dirtied under. It is used by queue_cap_snap to set up
the cap_snap. However, since we queue cap snaps for any dirty caps, not
just for dirty file data, we need to keep a valid i_head_snapc anytime
we have dirty|flushing caps. This fixes a NULL pointer deref in
queue_cap_snap when writing back dirty caps without data (e.g.,
snaptest-authwb.sh).

A couple issues here:

It is possible that phylib will call adjust_link before returning
from {,of_}phy_connect(), which may cause the following [very rare,
though] oops upon reopening the device:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x0000024c

[...]
Here is why. Drivers store phydev in their private structures, e.g.
gianfar driver:
static int init_phy(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
priv->phydev = of_phy_connect(...);
...
}
So that adjust_link could retrieve it back:
static void adjust_link(struct net_device *dev)
{
...
struct phy_device *phydev = priv->phydev;
...
}
If the device has been opened before, then phydev->state is set to
PHY_HALTED (or undefined if the driver didn't call phy_stop()).
Now, phy_connect starts the PHY state machine before returning phydev to
the driver:
phy_start_machine(phydev, NULL);
if (phydev->irq > 0)
phy_start_interrupts(phydev);
return phydev;
The time between 'phy_start_machine()' and 'return phydev' is undefined.
The start machine routine delays execution for 1 second, which is enough
for most cases. But under heavy load, or if you're unlucky, it is quite
possible that PHY state machine will execute before phy_connect()
returns, and so adjust_link callback will try to dereference phydev,
which is not yet ready.
To fix the issue, simply initialize the PHY's state to PHY_READY during
phy_attach(). This will ensure that phylib won't call adjust_link before
phy_start().

After commit 852972acff8f10f3a15679be2059bb94916cba5d (ACPI: Disable
ASPM if the platform won't provide _OSC control for PCIe) control of
the PCIe Capability Structure is unconditionally requested by
acpi_pci_root_add(), which in principle may cause problems to
happen in two ways. First, the BIOS may refuse to give control of
the PCIe Capability Structure if it is not asked for any of the
_OSC features depending on it at the same time. Second, the BIOS may
assume that control of the _OSC features depending on the PCIe
Capability Structure will be requested in the future and may behave
incorrectly if that doesn't happen. For this reason, control of
the PCIe Capability Structure should always be requested along with
control of any other _OSC features that may depend on it (ie. PCIe
native PME, PCIe native hot-plug, PCIe AER).
Rework the PCIe port driver so that (1) it checks which native PCIe
port services can be enabled, according to the BIOS, and (2) it
requests control of all these services simultaneously. In
particular, this causes pcie_portdrv_probe() to fail if the BIOS
refuses to grant control of the PCIe Capability Structure, which
means that no native PCIe port services can be enabled for the PCIe
Root Complex the given port belongs to. If that happens, ASPM is
disabled to avoid problems with mishandling it by the part of the
PCIe hierarchy for which control of the PCIe Capability Structure
has not been received.
Make it possible to override this behavior using 'pcie_ports=native'
(use the PCIe native services regardless of the BIOS response to the
control request), or 'pcie_ports=compat' (do not use the PCIe native
services at all).
Accordingly, rework the existing PCIe port service drivers so that
they don't request control of the services directly.

It is possible that the BIOS will not grant control of all _OSC
features requested via acpi_pci_osc_control_set(), so it is
recommended to negotiate the final set of _OSC features with the
query flag set before calling _OSC to request control of these
features.
To implement it, rework acpi_pci_osc_control_set() so that the caller
can specify the mask of _OSC control bits to negotiate and the mask
of _OSC control bits that are absolutely necessary to it. Then,
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will run _OSC queries in a loop until
the mask of _OSC control bits returned by the BIOS is equal to the
mask passed to it. Also, before running the _OSC request
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will check if the caller's required
control bits are present in the final mask.
Using this mechanism we will be able to avoid situations in which the
BIOS doesn't grant control of certain _OSC features, because they
depend on some other _OSC features that have not been requested.

There is the assumption in acpi_pci_osc_control_set() that it is
always sufficient to compare the mask of _OSC control bits to be
requested with the result of an _OSC query where all of the known
control bits have been checked. However, in general, that need not
be the case. For example, if an _OSC feature A depends on an _OSC
feature B and control of A, B plus another _OSC feature C is
requested simultaneously, the BIOS may return A, B, C, while it would
only return C if A and C were requested without B.
That may result in passing a wrong mask of _OSC control bits to an
_OSC control request, in which case the BIOS may only grant control
of a subset of the requested features. Moreover, acpi_pci_run_osc()
will return error code if that happens and the caller of
acpi_pci_osc_control_set() will not know that it's been granted
control of some _OSC features. Consequently, the system will
generally not work as expected.
Apart from this acpi_pci_osc_control_set() always uses the mask
of _OSC control bits returned by the very first invocation of
acpi_pci_query_osc(), but that is done with the second argument
equal to OSC_PCI_SEGMENT_GROUPS_SUPPORT which generally happens
to affect the returned _OSC control bits.
For these reasons, make acpi_pci_osc_control_set() always check if
control of the requested _OSC features will be granted before making
the final control request. As a result, the osc_control_qry and
osc_queried members of struct acpi_pci_root are not necessary any
more, so drop them and remove the remaining code referring to them.

Xen events are logically edge triggered, as Xen only calls the event
upcall when an event is newly set, but not continuously as it remains set.
As a result, use handle_edge_irq rather than handle_level_irq.
This has the important side-effect of fixing a long-standing bug of
events getting lost if:
- an event's interrupt handler is running
- the event is migrated to a different vcpu
- the event is re-triggered
The most noticable symptom of these lost events is occasional lockups
of blkfront.
Many thanks to Tom Kopec and Daniel Stodden in tracking this down.

IPIs and VIRQs are inherently per-cpu event types, so treat them as such:
- use a specific percpu irq_chip implementation, and
- handle them with handle_percpu_irq
This makes the path for delivering these interrupts more efficient
(no masking/unmasking, no locks), and it avoid problems with attempts
to migrate them.

Now that the worklist is global, having works pending after wq
destruction can easily lead to oops and destroy_workqueue() have
several BUG_ON()s to catch these cases. Unfortunately, BUG_ON()
doesn't tell much about how the work became pending after the final
flush_workqueue().
This patch adds WQ_DYING which is set before the final flush begins.
If a work is requested to be queued on a dying workqueue,
WARN_ON_ONCE() is triggered and the request is ignored. This clearly
indicates which caller is trying to queue a work on a dying workqueue
and keeps the system working in most cases.
Locking rule comment is updated such that the 'I' rule includes
modifying the field from destruction path.

If netconsole is in use, there is a possibility for deadlock in 3c59x between
boomerang_interrupt and boomerang_start_xmit. Both routines take the vp->lock,
and if netconsole is in use, a pr_* call from the boomerang_interrupt routine
will result in the netconsole code attempting to trnasmit an skb, which can try
to take the same spin lock, resulting in deadlock.
The fix is pretty straightforward. This patch allocats a bit in the 3c59x
private structure to indicate that its handling an interrupt. If we get into
the transmit routine and that bit is set, we can be sure that we have recursed
and will deadlock if we continue, so instead we just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so
the stack requeues the skb to try again later.

The tlb flushing code uses the mm_users field of the mm_struct to
decide if each page table entry needs to be flushed individually with
IPTE or if a global flush for the mm_struct is sufficient after all page
table updates have been done. The comment for mm_users says "How many
users with user space?" but the /proc code increases mm_users after it
found the process structure by pid without creating a new user process.
Which makes mm_users useless for the decision between the two tlb
flusing methods. The current code can be confused to not flush tlb
entries by a concurrent access to /proc files if e.g. a fork is in
progres. The solution for this problem is to make the tlb flushing
logic independent from the mm_users field.

This is based upon a report by Meelis Roos showing that it's possible
that we'll try to fetch a property that is 32K in size with some
devices. With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in
and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work.
In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup.
The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical. It
used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel
memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we
explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap
table.
So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked
into the main kernel image.
But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this
indirect bounce buffering.
Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K
smaller.
It was also discovered during these conversions that the
implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was
fixed here as well. Currently that interface is not in use.

MPIC_U3_HT_IRQS is selected both by PPC_PMAC64 and PPC_MAPLE, but depends
on PPC_MAPLE, so a PPC_PMAC64-only config gets this warning:
warning: (PPC_PMAC64 && PPC_PMAC && POWER4 || PPC_MAPLE && PPC64 && PPC_BOOK3S) selects MPIC_U3_HT_IRQS which has unmet direct dependencies (PPC_MAPLE)
Fix that by removing the dependency on PPC_MAPLE.

The ioctls are actually compatible, but due to historical mistake the
numbers differ between 32bit and 64bit.

pci_device_to_OF_node() can return null, and list_for_each_entry will
never enter the loop when dev is NULL, so it looks like this test is
a typo.
