connector: create connector workqueue only while needed once
The netlink connector uses its own workqueue to relay the datas sent
from userspace to the appropriate callback. If you launch the test
from Documentation/connector and change it a bit to send a high flow
of data, you will see thousands of events coming to the "cqueue"
workqueue by looking at the workqueue tracer.
This flow of events can be sent very quickly. So, to not encumber the
kevent workqueue and delay other jobs, the "cqueue" workqueue should
remain.
But this workqueue is pointless most of the time, it will always be
created (assuming you have built it of course) although only
developpers with specific needs will use it.
So avoid this "most of the time useless task", this patch proposes to
create this workqueue only when needed once. The first jobs to be
sent to connector callbacks will be sent to kevent while the "cqueue"
thread creation will be scheduled to kevent too.
The following jobs will continue to be scheduled to keventd until the
cqueue workqueue is created, and then the rest of the jobs will
continue to perform as usual, through this dedicated workqueue.
Each time I tested this patch, only the first event was sent to
keventd, the rest has been sent to cqueue which have been created
quickly.
Also, this patch fixes some trailing whitespaces on the connector files.

modules: Use a better scheme for refcounting
Current refcounting for modules (done if CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y) is
using a lot of memory.
Each 'struct module' contains an [NR_CPUS] array of full cache lines.
This patch uses existing infrastructure (percpu_modalloc() &
percpu_modfree()) to allocate percpu space for the refcount storage.
Instead of wasting NR_CPUS*128 bytes (on i386), we now use
nr_cpu_ids*sizeof(local_t) bytes.
On a typical distro, where NR_CPUS=8, shiping 2000 modules, we reduce
size of module files by about 2 Mbytes. (1Kb per module)
Instead of having all refcounters in the same memory node - with TLB misses
because of vmalloc() - this new implementation permits to have better
NUMA properties, since each CPU will use storage on its preferred node,
thanks to percpu storage.

This is a port of libata's pata_cs5536.c (written by Martin K. Petersen)
to IDE subsystem.
Changes done while at it:
* Reprogram PIO/MWDMA timings if needed before and after DMA transfer
(chipset uses shared PIO/MWDMA timings).
* Fix cable detection to report 80-wires cable if BIOS set it for any
device on a port (IDE core will do drive-side cable detection later).
* Don't disable UDMA while programming PIO timings.
* Simplify PCI/MSR support.
Pros of having IDE host driver in addition to libata's one:
* IDE is much lighter than SCSI+libata, the host driver itself is also
a bit smaller:
text data bss dec hex filename
1261 496 4 1761 6e1 drivers/ata/pata_cs5536.o
1242 128 4 1374 55e drivers/ide/cs5536.o
* This allows use of IDE features which are unavailable under libata.
v2:
* Fixes per review from Sergei:
- simplify dependency check in Kconfig
- use IDE_DRV_MASK also for ->drive_data
- disable UDMA when programming MWDMA
- program new DTC timings only when necessary
- fix printk() level in cs5536_init_one()
* Fix patch description according to comments from Alan and Sergei.
v3:
* Smarter masking of UDMA bits per Sergei's suggestion.

It downgraded our mmap semaphore to a read-lock while mlocking pages, in
order to allow other threads (and external accesses like "ps" et al) to
walk the vma lists and take page faults etc. Which is a nice idea, but
the implementation does not work.
Because we cannot upgrade the lock back to a write lock without
releasing the mmap semaphore, the code had to release the lock entirely
and then re-take it as a writelock. However, that meant that the caller
possibly lost the vma chain that it was following, since now another
thread could come in and mmap/munmap the range.
The code tried to work around that by just looking up the vma again and
erroring out if that happened, but quite frankly, that was just a buggy
hack that doesn't actually protect against anything (the other thread
could just have replaced the vma with another one instead of totally
unmapping it).
The only way to downgrade to a read map _reliably_ is to do it at the
end, which is likely the right thing to do: do all the 'vma' operations
with the write-lock held, then downgrade to a read after completing them
all, and then do the "populate the newly mlocked regions" while holding
just the read lock. And then just drop the read-lock and return to user
space.
The (perhaps somewhat simpler) alternative is to just make all the
callers of mlock_vma_pages_range() know that the mmap lock got dropped,
and just re-grab the mmap semaphore if it needs to mlock more than one
vma region.
So we can do this "downgrade mmap sem while populating mlocked regions"
thing right, but the way it was done here was absolutely not correct.
Thus the revert, in the expectation that we will do it all correctly
some day.

phylib: Rework suspend/resume code to check netdev wakeup capability
In most cases (e.g. PCI drivers) MDIO and MAC controllers are
represented by the same device. But for SOC ethernets we have
separate devices. So, in SOC case, checking whether MDIO
controller may wakeup is not only makes little sense, but also
prevents us from doing per-netdevice wakeup management.
This patch reworks suspend/resume code so that now it checks
for net device's wakeup flags, not MDIO controller's ones.
Each netdevice should manage its wakeup flags, and phylib will
decide whether suspend an attached PHY or not.

net: Optimize memory usage when splicing from sockets.
The recent fix of data corruption when splicing from sockets uses
memory very inefficiently allocating a new page to copy each chunk of

smsc911x: allow mac address to be saved before device reset
Some platforms (for example pcm037) do not have an EEPROM fitted,
instead storing their mac address somewhere else. The bootloader
fetches this and configures the ethernet adapter before the kernel is
started.
This patch allows a platform to indicate to the driver via the
SMSC911X_SAVE_MAC_ADDRESS flag that the mac address has already been
configured via such a mechanism, and should be saved before resetting
the chip.

On LAN9115/LAN9117/LAN9215/LAN9217, external phys are supported. These
are usually indicated by a hardware strap which sets an "external PHY
detected" bit in the HW_CFG register.
In some cases it is desirable to override this hardware strap and force
use of either the internal phy or an external PHY. This patch adds
SMSC911X_FORCE_INTERNAL_PHY and SMSC911X_FORCE_EXTERNAL_PHY flags so a
platform can indicate this preference via its platform_data.

smsc911x: add support for platform-specific irq flags
this patch adds support for the platform_device's resources to indicate

IORESOURCE_IRQ_LOWLEVEL (which corresponds to IRQF_TRIGGER_LOW). These

Fix memory corruption in console selection
Fix an off-by-two memory error in console selection.
The loop below goes from sel_start to sel_end (inclusive), so it writes
one more character. This one more character was added to the allocated
size (+1), but it was not multiplied by an UTF-8 multiplier.
This patch fixes a memory corruption when UTF-8 console is used and the
user selects a few characters, all of them 3-byte in UTF-8 (for example
a frame line).
When memory redzones are enabled, a redzone corruption is reported.
When they are not enabled, trashing of random memory occurs.

Stop playing silly games with the VM_ACCOUNT flag
The mmap_region() code would temporarily set the VM_ACCOUNT flag for
anonymous shared mappings just to inform shmem_zero_setup() that it
should enable accounting for the resulting shm object. It would then
clear the flag after calling ->mmap (for the /dev/zero case) or doing
shmem_zero_setup() (for the MAP_ANON case).
This just resulted in vma merge issues, but also made for just
unnecessary confusion. Use the already-existing VM_NORESERVE flag for
this instead, and let shmem_{zero|file}_setup() just figure it out from
that.
This also happens to make it obvious that the new DRI2 GEM layer uses a
non-reserving backing store for its object allocation - which is quite
possibly not intentional. But since I didn't want to change semantics
in this patch, I left it alone, and just updated the caller to use the
new flag semantics.
