Similar situation to that of __alloc_fd(); do not use unless you
really have to. You should not touch any descriptor table other
than your own; it's a sure sign of a really bad API design.
As with __alloc_fd(), you *must* use a first-class reference to
struct files_struct; something obtained by get_files_struct(some task)
(let alone direct task->files) will not do. It must be either
current->files, or obtained by get_files_struct(current) by the
owner of that sucker and given to you.

Essentially, alloc_fd() in a files_struct we own a reference to.
Most of the time wanting to use it is a sign of lousy API
design (such as android/binder). It's *not* a general-purpose
interface; better that than open-coding its guts, but again,
playing with other process' descriptor table is a sign of bad
design.

Both modular callers of sock_map_fd() had been buggy; sctp one leaks
descriptor and file if copy_to_user() fails, 9p one shouldn't be
exposing file in the descriptor table at all.
Switch both to sock_alloc_file(), export it, unexport sock_map_fd() and
make it static.

This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port
as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the
port is attached to KGDB).
Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able
to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33). This is
because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus
is able to intercept the magic sequence.
Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling
communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully
detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw
console.
Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so
initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger
console:
Type $3#33 to enter the debugger>
For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option,
when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key
press, so the kernel will be printing this:
Hit <return> to enter the debugger>
This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes
nmi_console feature somewhat useless.
And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking
can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

It was noticed that polling drivers (like KGDB) are not able to use
serial ports if the ports were not previously initialized via console.
I.e. when booting with console=ttyAMA0 kgdboc=ttyAMA0, everything works
fine, but with console=ttyFOO kgdboc=ttyAMA0, the kgdboc doesn't work.
This is because we don't initialize the hardware. Calling ->startup() is
not an option, because drivers request interrupts there, and drivers
fail to handle situations when tty isn't opened with interrupts enabled.
So, we have to implement a new callback (actually, tty_ops already have
a similar callback), which does everything needed to initialize just the
hardware.

The new arch callback should manage NMIs that usually cause KGDB to
enter. That is, not all NMIs should be enabled/disabled, but only
those that issue kgdb_handle_exception().
We must mask it as serial-line interrupt can be used as an NMI, so
if the original KGDB-entry cause was say a breakpoint, then every
input to KDB console will cause KGDB to reenter, which we don't want.

The legacy serial driver will detect the Winbond CIR device as a serial
port, since it looks exactly like a serial port unless you know what
it is from the PNP ID.
Here we track this port as a special PORT_8250_CIR type, preventing the

Allow user-space processes to use transactional execution (TX).
If the TX facility is available user space programs can use
transactions for fine-grained serialization based on the data
objects that are referenced during a transaction. This is
useful for lockless data structures and speculative compiler
optimizations.

In some cases, it is necessary to enter or exit userspace-RCU-idle mode
from an interrupt handler, for example, if some other CPU sends this
CPU a resched IPI. In this case, the current CPU would enter the IPI
handler in userspace-RCU-idle mode, but would need to exit the IPI handler
after having exited that mode.
To allow this to work, this commit adds two new APIs to TREE_RCU:
- rcu_user_enter_after_irq(). This must be called from an interrupt between
rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit(). After the irq calls rcu_irq_exit(),
the irq handler will return into an RCU extended quiescent state.
In theory, this interrupt is never a nested interrupt, but in practice
it might interrupt softirq, which looks to RCU like a nested interrupt.
- rcu_user_exit_after_irq(). This must be called from a non-nesting
interrupt, interrupting an RCU extended quiescent state, also
between rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit(). After the irq calls
rcu_irq_exit(), the irq handler will return in an RCU non-quiescent
state.
[ Combined with "Allow calls to rcu_exit_user_irq from nesting irqs." ]

RCU currently insists that only idle tasks can enter RCU idle mode, which
prohibits an adaptive tickless kernel (AKA nohz cpusets), which in turn
would mean that usermode execution would always take scheduling-clock
interrupts, even when there is only one task runnable on the CPU in
question.
This commit therefore adds rcu_user_enter() and rcu_user_exit(), which
allow non-idle tasks to enter RCU idle mode. These are quite similar
to rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit(), respectively, except that they
omit the idle-task checks.
[ Updated to use "user" flag rather than separate check functions. ]
[ paulmck: Updated to drop exports of new functions based on Josh's patch

definitions into their own v4l2-controls.h header, included by videodev2.h.

Pull more networking fixes from David Miller:
1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of
bugs. These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need
to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not
expecting this possibility. The callers have cached pointers to the
packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to
continue using pskb_may_pull().
So they could end up reading garbage.
It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use
skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify
the linear SKB data area.
2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can
call down into the TCP keepalive code. The case basically involves
creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling
setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...)
Fixed by Eric Dumazet.
3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered
on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP. Fix
from Andrzej Kaczmarek.
4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in
place. From Andrei Emeltchenko.
5) Fix deadlock between cfg80211_mutex and reg_regdb_search_mutex in
cfg80211, from Luis R. Rodriguez.
6) Fix interrupt double release in iwlwifi, from Emmanuel Grumbach.
7) Missing module license in bcm87xx driver, from Peter Huewe.
8) Team driver can lose port changed events when adding devices to a
team, fix from Jiri Pirko.
9) Fix endless loop when trying ot unregister PPPOE device in zombie
state, from Xiaodong Xu.
10) batman-adv layer needs to set MAC address of software device
earlier, otherwise we call tt_local_add with it uninitialized.
11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but

Commit 1ad75b9e1628 ("c/r: prctl: add minimal address test to
PR_SET_MM") added some address checking to prctl_set_mm() used by
checkpoint-restore. This causes a build error for no-MMU systems:
kernel/sys.c: In function 'prctl_set_mm':
kernel/sys.c:1868:34: error: 'mmap_min_addr' undeclared (first use in this function)
The test for mmap_min_addr doesn't make a lot of sense for no-MMU code
as noted in commit 6e1415467614 ("NOMMU: Optimise away the
{dac_,}mmap_min_addr tests").
This patch defines mmap_min_addr as 0UL in the no-MMU case so that the
compiler will optimize away tests for "addr < mmap_min_addr".

cputime into generic layer.
Archs that consider the whole time spent in the idle task as idle
time (ia64, powerpc) can rely on the generic vtime_account()
and implement vtime_account_system() and vtime_account_idle(),

Use a naming based on vtime as a prefix for virtual based
cputime accounting APIs:
- account_system_vtime() -> vtime_account()
- account_switch_vtime() -> vtime_task_switch()
It makes it easier to allow for further declension such
as vtime_account_system(), vtime_account_idle(), ... if we
want to find out the context we account to from generic code.
This also make it better to know on which subsystem these APIs
refer to.
