sched: Change NODE sched_domain group creation
The NODE sched_domain is 'special' in that it allocates sched_groups
per CPU, instead of sharing the sched_groups between all CPUs.
While this might have some benefits on large NUMA and avoid remote
memory accesses when iterating the sched_groups, this does break
current code that assumes sched_groups are shared between all
sched_domains (since the dynamic cpu_power patches).
So refactor the NODE groups to behave like all other groups.
(The ALLNODES domain again shared its groups across the CPUs for some
reason).
If someone does measure a performance decrease due to this change we
need to revisit this and come up with another way to have both dynamic
cpu_power and NUMA work nice together.

sched: Fix erroneous all_pinned logic
The scheduler load balancer has specific code to deal with cases of
unbalanced system due to lots of unmovable tasks (for example because of
hard CPU affinity). In those situation, it excludes the busiest CPU that
has pinned tasks for load balance consideration such that it can perform
second 2nd load balance pass on the rest of the system.
This all works as designed if there is only one cgroup in the system.
However, when we have multiple cgroups, this logic has false positives and
triggers multiple load balance passes despite there are actually no pinned
tasks at all.
The reason it has false positives is that the all pinned logic is deep in
the lowest function of can_migrate_task() and is too low level:
load_balance_fair() iterates each task group and calls balance_tasks() to
migrate target load. Along the way, balance_tasks() will also set a
all_pinned variable. Given that task-groups are iterated, this all_pinned
variable is essentially the status of last group in the scanning process.
Task group can have number of reasons that no load being migrated, none
due to cpu affinity. However, this status bit is being propagated back up
to the higher level load_balance(), which incorrectly think that no tasks
were moved. It kick off the all pinned logic and start multiple passes
attempt to move load onto puller CPU.
To fix this, move the all_pinned aggregation up at the iterator level.
This ensures that the status is aggregated over all task-groups, not just
last one in the list.

sched: Fix sched-domain avg_load calculation
In function find_busiest_group(), the sched-domain avg_load isn't
calculated at all if there is a group imbalance within the domain. This
will cause erroneous imbalance calculation.
The reason is that calculate_imbalance() sees sds->avg_load = 0 and it
will dump entire sds->max_load into imbalance variable, which is used
later on to migrate entire load from busiest CPU to the puller CPU.
This has two really bad effect:
1. stampede of task migration, and they won't be able to break out
of the bad state because of positive feedback loop: large load
delta -> heavier load migration -> larger imbalance and the cycle
goes on.
2. severe imbalance in CPU queue depth. This causes really long
scheduling latency blip which affects badly on application that
has tight latency requirement.
The fix is to have kernel calculate domain avg_load in both cases. This
will ensure that imbalance calculation is always sensible and the target
is usually half way between busiest and puller CPU.

ALSA: HDA: Fix single internal mic on ALC275 (Sony Vaio VPCSB1C5E)
In cases where there is only one internal mic connected to ADC 0x11,
alc275_setup_dual_adc won't handle the case, so we need to add the
ADC node to the array of candidates.
The MCP7x hardware computes the audio infoframe channel count
automatically, but requires the audio driver to set the audio
infoframe checksum manually via the Nv_VERB_SET_Info_Frame_Checksum
control verb.
When audio starts playing, nvhdmi_8ch_7x_pcm_prepare sets the checksum
to (0x71 - chan - chanmask). For example, for 2ch audio, chan == 1
and chanmask == 0 so the checksum is set to 0x70. When audio playback
finishes and the device is closed, nvhdmi_8ch_7x_pcm_close resets the
channel formats, causing the channel count to revert to 8ch. Since
the checksum is not reset, the hardware starts generating audio
infoframes with invalid checksums. This causes some displays to blank
the video.
Fix this by updating the checksum and channel mask when the device is
closed and also when it is first initialized. In addition, make sure
that the channel mask is appropriate for an 8ch infoframe by setting
it to 0x13 (FL FR LFE FC RL RR RLC RRC).

dm: improve block integrity support
The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return). To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking). But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.
Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template. Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.
Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
the point of no return)

With the ->sync_page() hook gone, we have a few users that
add their own static address_space_operations without any
functions defined.
fs/inode.c already has an empty_aops that it uses for init
purposes. Lets export that and use it in the places where
an otherwise empty aops was defined.

block: get rid of elv_insert() interface

perf probe: Fix listing incorrect line number with inline function
Fix a bug showing incorrect line number when a probe is put on the head of an
inline function. This patch updates find_perf_probe_point() and introduces new
rules to get correct line number.
- If debuginfo doesn't have a correct file name, we shouldn't return line
number too, because, without file name, line number is meaningless.
- If the address is in a function, it stores the function name and the offset
from the function entry.
- If the address is on a line, it tries to get the relative line number from
the function entry line, except for the address is same as the entry
address of the function (in this case, the relative line number should
be 0).
- If the address is in an inline function entry (call-site), it uses the
inline function call line number as the line on which the address is.
- If the address is in an inline function body, it stores the inline
function name and offset from the inline function call site instead of the
(non-inlined) function.

This is broken in the same manner as for VGA: trying to write to an
invalid address on the (currently 7-bit) i2c bus.
One notable failure appears to be for MacBooks. The scary part was that
it gave the appearance of working (i.e. reporting the absence of the
panel) on various all-in-one machines with ghost LVDS panels and not
failing for laptops.

Following the fix to reset the GMBUS controller after a NAK, we finally
utilize the 0xa0 probe for a CRT connection. And discover that the code
is broken. Shock.
There are a number of issues, but following a key insight from Dave
Airlie, that 0xA0 is an invalid address on a 7-bit bus (though not if we
were to enable 10-bit addressing), and would look like the EDID port
0x50, it is possible to see where the confusion starts.
In short, a write to 0xA0 is accepted by the GMBUS controller which we
interpreted as meaning the existence of a connection (a slave on the
other end of the wire ACKing the write). That was false.
During testing with a broken GMBUS implementation, which never reset an
earlier NAK, this test always reported a NAK and so we proceeded on to
the next test.

sched: Clean up rebalance_domains() load-balance interval calculation
Instead of the possible multiple-evaluation of num_online_cpus()
in rebalance_domains() that Linus reported, avoid it altogether
in the normal case since it's implemented with a Hamming weight
function over a cpu bitmask which can be darn expensive for those
with big iron.
This also makes it cleaner, smaller and documents the code.

UBI: do not select KALLSYMS_ALL
All UBI needs is to make sure we stacktraces when UBI debugging
is enabled. It is enough to select KALLSYMS for this, KALLSYMS_ALL
is not necessary.
And the current Kconfig line we have:
select KALLSYMS_ALL if KALLSYMS && DEBUG_KERNEL
is just too complex to be sane and right. But this "if" part there
is needed to prevent "unmet direct dependency" warnings, because
KALLSYMS_ALL depends on KALLSYMS and DEBUG_KERNEL, so we cannot
just select KALLSYMS_ALL.
Anyway, this feels messy, and we do not seem to really need KALLSYMS_ALL,
so select KALLSYMS instead.
