Remove the driver for Tsi500 Parallel RapidIO switch because this device
has not been available for several years. Since the first introduction of
Tsi500, the parallel RapidIO interface was replaced by the serial RapidIO
(sRIO) and therefore there is no value in keeping this driver.

mwave: fix info leak in mwave_ioctl()
Smatch complains that on 64 bit systems, there is a hole in the
MW_ABILITIES struct between ->component_count and ->component_list[]. It
leaks stack information from the mwave_ioctl() function.
I've added a memset() to initialize the struct to zero.

fat: additions to support fat_fallocate
Implement preallocation via the fallocate syscall on VFAT partitions.
With FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE, there is no way to distinguish if the mismatch
between i_size and no. of clusters allocated is a consequence of
fallocate or just plain corruption. When a non fallocate aware (old)
linux fat driver tries to write to such a file, it throws an error.Also,
fsck detects this as inconsistency and truncates the prealloc'd blocks.
To avoid this, as suggested by OGAWA, remove changes that make fallocate
persistent across mounts and restrict lifetime of blocks from fallocate(2)
to file release.

reiserfs: fix deadlock with nfs racing on create/lookup
Reiserfs is currently able to be deadlocked by having two NFS clients
where one has removed and recreated a file and another is accessing the
file with an open file handle.
If one client deletes and recreates a file with timing such that the
recreated file obtains the same [dirid, objectid] pair as the original
file while another client accesses the file via file handle, the create
and lookup can race and deadlock if the lookup manages to create the
in-memory inode first.
The create thread, in insert_inode_locked4, will hold the write lock while
waiting on the other inode to be unlocked. The lookup thread, anywhere in
the iget path, will release and reacquire the write lock while it
schedules. If it needs to reacquire the lock while the create thread has
it, it will never be able to make forward progress because it needs to
reacquire the lock before ultimately unlocking the inode.
This patch drops the write lock across the insert_inode_locked4 call so
that the ordering of inode_wait -> write lock is retained. Since this
would have been the case before the BKL push-down, this is safe.

autofs4: translate pids to the right namespace for the daemon
The PID and the TGID of the process triggering the mount are sent to the
daemon. Currently the global pid values are sent (ones valid in the
initial pid namespace) but this is wrong if the autofs daemon itself is
not running in the initial pid namespace.
So send the pid values that are valid in the namespace of the autofs daemon.
The namespace to use is taken from the oz_pgrp pid pointer, which was set
at mount time to the mounting process' pid namespace.
If the pid translation fails (the triggering process is in an unrelated
pid namespace) then the automount fails with ENOENT.

autofs4: allow autofs to work outside the initial PID namespace
Enable autofs4 to work in a "container". oz_pgrp is converted from pid_t
to struct pid and this is stored at mount time based on the "pgrp=" option
or if the option is missing then the current pgrp.
The "pgrp=" option is interpreted in the PID namespace of the current
process. This option is flawed in that it doesn't carry the namespace
information, so it should be deprecated. AFAICS the autofs daemon always
sends the current pgrp, which is the default anyway.
The oz_pgrp is also set from the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_SETPIPEFD_CMD ioctl.
This ioctl sets oz_pgrp to the current pgrp. It is not allowed to change
the pid namespace.
oz_pgrp is used mainly to determine whether the process traversing the
autofs mount tree is the autofs daemon itself or not. This function now
compares the pid pointers instead of the pid_t values.
One other use of oz_pgrp is in autofs4_show_options. There is shows the
virtual pid number (i.e. the one that is valid inside the PID namespace
of the calling process)
For debugging printk convert oz_pgrp to the value in the initial pid
namespace.

lib/bitmap.c: speed up bitmap_find_free_region
In bitmap_find_free_region(), if we skip the all-ones words and find bits
in a not-all-ones word, we can improve performance of it.
For example, If bitmap_find_free_region() is called with order=0, First,
It scans bitmap array by the increment of long type, then find 1 free bit
within 1 long type value. In 32 bits system and 1024 bits size, in the
worst case, We need 1024 for-loops to find 1 free bit. But, If this is
applied, it takes 64 for-loops. Instead, It will be needed additional
if-comparison of every word and It can take time slightly as 'Test case
3'. But, In many cases, It will speed up significantly.
Test cases bellows show the time taken to execute bitmap_find_free_region()
before and after patch.
Test case 1: order is 0. all bits are one except that last one bit is zero.
before patch: 29727 ns
after patch: 2349 ns
Test case 2: order is 1. all bits are one except that last 2 contiguous bits
are zero.
before patch: 15475 ns
after patch: 2225 ns
Test case 3: order is 1. all words are not-all-ones and don't have 2 contiguous
bits except that last 2 contiguous are zero.

drivers/leds/leds-ot200.c: fix error caused by shifted mask
During the development of this driver an in-house register documentation
was used. The last week some integration tests were done and this problem
was found. It turned out that the released register documentation is
wrong.
The fix is very simple: shift all masks by one.

smp: Give WARN()ing when calling smp_call_function_many()/single() in serving irq
Currently the functions smp_call_function_many()/single() will give a
WARN()ing only in the case of irqs_disabled(), but that check is not
enough to guarantee execution of the SMP cross-calls.
In many other cases such as softirq handling/interrupt handling, the two
APIs still can not be called, just as the smp_call_function_many()
comments say:
* You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a
* hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler. Preemption
* must be disabled when calling this function.
There is a real case for softirq DEADLOCK case:
CPUA CPUB
spin_lock(&spinlock)
Any irq coming, call the irq handler
irq_exit()
spin_lock_irq(&spinlock)
<== Blocking here due to
CPUB hold it
__do_softirq()
run_timer_softirq()
timer_cb()
call smp_call_function_many()
send IPI interrupt to CPUA
wait_csd()
Then both CPUA and CPUB will be deadlocked here.
So we should give a warning in the nmi, hardirq or softirq context as well.
Moreover, adding one new macro in_serving_irq() which indicates we are
processing nmi, hardirq or sofirq.

memcg: debugging facility to access dangling memcgs
If memcg is tracking anything other than plain user memory (swap, tcp buf
mem, or slab memory), it is possible - and normal - that a reference will
be held by the group after it is dead. Still, for developers, it would be
extremely useful to be able to query about those states during debugging.
This patch provides a debugging facility in the root memcg, so we can
inspect which memcgs still have pending objects, and what is the cause of
this state.

mm/dmapool.c: fix null dev in dma_pool_create()
A few drivers invoke dma_pool_create() with a null dev. Note that dev is
dereferenced in dev_to_node(dev), causing a null pointer dereference.
A long term solution is to disallow null dev. Once the drivers are fixed,
we can simplify the core code here. For now we add WARN_ON(!dev) to
notify the driver maintainers and avoid the null pointer dereference.

drop_caches: add some documentation and info message
I would like to resurrect Dave's patch. The last time it was posted was
here https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/16/250 and there didn't seem to be any
strong opposition.
Kosaki was worried about possible excessive logging when somebody drops
caches too often (but then he claimed he didn't have a strong opinion on
that) but I would say opposite. If somebody does that then I would really
like to know that from the log when supporting a system because it almost
for sure means that there is something fishy going on. It is also worth
mentioning that only root can write drop caches so this is not an flooding
attack vector.
I am bringing that up again because this can be really helpful when
chasing strange performance issues which (surprise surprise) turn out to
be related to artificially dropped caches done because the admin thinks
this would help...
I have just refreshed the original patch on top of the current mm tree
but I could live with KERN_INFO as well if people think that KERN_NOTICE
is too hysterical.

mm: memmap_init_zone() performance improvement
We have what we call an "architectural simulator". It is a computer
program that pretends that it is a computer system. We use it to test the
firmware before real hardware is available. We have booted Linux on our
simulator. As you would expect it takes longer to boot on the simulator
than it does on real hardware.
With my patch - boot time 41 minutes
Without patch - boot time 94 minutes
These numbers do not scale linearly to real hardware. But indicate to me
a place where Linux can be improved.
memmap_init_zone() loops through every Page Frame Number (pfn), including
pfn values that are within the gaps between existing memory sections. The
unneeded looping will become a boot performance issue when machines
configure larger memory ranges that will contain larger and more numerous
gaps.
The code will skip across invalid pfn values to reduce the number of loops
executed.
