ibmveth: Fix alignment of rx queue bug
This patch fixes a bug found by Nish Aravamudan
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/15/220) where the driver is not following
the spec (it is not aligning the rx buffer on a 16-byte boundary) and the
hypervisor aborts the registration, making the device unusable.
The fix follows BenH's recommendation (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/20/461)
to replace the kmalloc+map for a single call to dma_alloc_coherent()
because that function always aligns to a 16-byte boundary.
The stable trees will run into this bug whenever the rx buffer kmalloc call
returns something not aligned on a 16-byte boundary.

staging: zcache: fix cleancache race condition with shrinker
This patch fixes a race condition that results in memory
corruption when using cleancache.
The race exists between the zcache shrinker handler,
shrink_zcache_memory() and cleancache_get_page().
In most cases, the shrinker will both evict a zbpg
from its buddy list and flush it from tmem before a
cleancache_get_page() occurs on that page. A subsequent
cleancache_get_page() will fail in the tmem layer.
In the rare case that two occur together and the
cleancache_get_page() path gets through the tmem
layer before the shrinker path can flush tmem,
zbud_decompress() does a check to see if the zbpg is a
"zombie", i.e. not on a buddy list, which means the shrinker
is in the process of reclaiming it. If the zbpg is a zombie,
zbud_decompress() returns -EINVAL.
However, this return code is being ignored by the caller,
zcache_pampd_get_data_and_free(), which results in the
caller of cleancache_get_page() thinking that the page has
been properly retrieved when it has not.
This patch modifies zcache_pampd_get_data_and_free() to
convey the failure up the stack so that the caller of
cleancache_get_page() knows the page retrieval failed.
This needs to be applied to stable trees as well.
zcache-main.c was named zcache.c before v3.1, so
I'm not sure how you want to handle trees earlier
than that.

arm64: TLB maintenance functionality
This patch adds the TLB maintenance functions. There is no distinction
made between the I and D TLBs. TLB maintenance operations are
automatically broadcast between CPUs in hardware. The inner-shareable
operations are always present, even on UP systems.
NOTE: Large part of this patch to be dropped once Peter Z's generic
mmu_gather patches are merged.

arm64: Cache maintenance routines
The patch adds functionality required for cache maintenance. The AArch64
architecture mandates non-aliasing VIPT or PIPT D-cache and VIPT (may
have aliases) or ASID-tagged VIVT I-cache. Cache maintenance operations
are automatically broadcast in hardware between CPUs.

arm64: CPU support
This patch adds AArch64 CPU specific functionality. It assumes that the
implementation is generic to AArch64 and does not require specific
identification. Different CPU implementations may require the setting of
various ACTLR_EL1 bits but such information is not currently available
and it should ideally be pushed to firmware.

This patch contains the initialisation of the memory blocks, MMU

Device nGnRnE (equivalent to Strongly Ordered), Device nGnRE (classic

Cache policies are supported via the memory attributes register

arm64: MMU definitions
The virtual memory layout is described in
Documentation/arm64/memory.txt. This patch adds the MMU definitions for
the 4KB and 64KB translation table configurations. The SECTION_SIZE is
2MB with 4KB page and 512MB with 64KB page configuration.
PHYS_OFFSET is calculated at run-time and stored in a variable (no
run-time code patching at this stage).
On the current implementation, both user and kernel address spaces are
512G (39-bit) each with a maximum of 256G for the RAM linear mapping.
Linux uses 3 levels of translation tables with the 4K page configuration
and 2 levels with the 64K configuration. Extending the memory space
beyond 39-bit with the 4K pages or 42-bit with 64K pages requires an
additional level of translation tables.
The SPARSEMEM configuration is global to all AArch64 platforms and
allows for 1GB sections with SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP enabled by default.

udf: Fix data corruption for files in ICB
When a file is stored in ICB (inode), we overwrite part of the file, and
the page containing file's data is not in page cache, we end up corrupting
file's data by overwriting them with zeros. The problem is we use
simple_write_begin() which simply zeroes parts of the page which are not
written to. The problem has been introduced by be021ee4 (udf: convert to
new aops).
Fix the problem by providing a ->write_begin function which makes the page
properly uptodate.

powerpc: Don't use __put_user() in patch_instruction
patch_instruction() can be called very early on ppc32, when the kernel
isn't yet running at it's linked address. That can cause the !
is_kernel_addr() test in __put_user() to trip and call might_sleep()
which is very bad at that point during boot.
Use a lower level function instead for now, at least until we get to
rework ppc32 boot process to do the code patching later, like ppc64
does.

powerpc: Make sure IPI handlers see data written by IPI senders
We have been observing hangs, both of KVM guest vcpu tasks and more
generally, where a process that is woken doesn't properly wake up and
continue to run, but instead sticks in TASK_WAKING state. This
happens because the update of rq->wake_list in ttwu_queue_remote()
is not ordered with the update of ipi_message in
smp_muxed_ipi_message_pass(), and the reading of rq->wake_list in
scheduler_ipi() is not ordered with the reading of ipi_message in
smp_ipi_demux(). Thus it is possible for the IPI receiver not to see
the updated rq->wake_list and therefore conclude that there is nothing
for it to do.
In order to make sure that anything done before smp_send_reschedule()
is ordered before anything done in the resulting call to scheduler_ipi(),
this adds barriers in smp_muxed_message_pass() and smp_ipi_demux().
The barrier in smp_muxed_message_pass() is a full barrier to ensure that
there is a full ordering between the smp_send_reschedule() caller and
scheduler_ipi(). In smp_ipi_demux(), we use xchg() rather than
xchg_local() because xchg() includes release and acquire barriers.
Using xchg() rather than xchg_local() makes sense given that
ipi_message is not just accessed locally.
This moves the barrier between setting the message and calling the
cause_ipi() function into the individual cause_ipi implementations.
Most of them -- those that used outb, out_8 or similar -- already had
a full barrier because out_8 etc. include a sync before the MMIO
store. This adds an explicit barrier in the two remaining cases.
These changes made no measurable difference to the speed of IPIs as
measured using a simple ping-pong latency test across two CPUs on
different cores of a POWER7 machine.
The analysis of the reason why processes were not waking up properly
is due to Milton Miller.

During a context switch we always restore the per thread DSCR value.
If we aren't doing explicit DSCR management
(ie thread.dscr_inherit == 0) and the default DSCR changed while
the process has been sleeping we end up with the wrong value.
Check thread.dscr_inherit and select the default DSCR or per thread

This was found with the following test case, when running with
more threads than CPUs (ie forcing context switching):
