staging: comedi: Add helper macro for comedi_driver boilerplate
Introduce the module_comedi_driver macro which is a convenience
macro for comedi driver modules similar to module_platform_driver.
It is intended to be used by drivers where the init/exit section
does nothing but register/unregister the comedi driver. By using
this macro it is possible to eliminate a few lines of boilerplate
code per comedi driver.

patches renames instances of the later to the former. The patch also renames allocate to

autofs: make the autofsv5 packet file descriptor use a packetized pipe
The autofs packet size has had a very unfortunate size problem on x86:
because the alignment of 'u64' differs in 32-bit and 64-bit modes, and
because the packet data was not 8-byte aligned, the size of the autofsv5
packet structure differed between 32-bit and 64-bit modes despite
looking otherwise identical (300 vs 304 bytes respectively).
We first fixed that up by making the 64-bit compat mode know about this
problem in commit a32744d4abae ("autofs: work around unhappy compat
problem on x86-64"), and that made a 32-bit 'systemd' work happily on a
64-bit kernel because everything then worked the same way as on a 32-bit
kernel.
But it turned out that 'automount' had actually known and worked around
this problem in user space, so fixing the kernel to do the proper 32-bit
compatibility handling actually *broke* 32-bit automount on a 64-bit
kernel, because it knew that the packet sizes were wrong and expected
those incorrect sizes.
As a result, we ended up reverting that compatibility mode fix, and
thus breaking systemd again, in commit fcbf94b9dedd.
With both automount and systemd doing a single read() system call, and
verifying that they get *exactly* the size they expect but using
different sizes, it seemed that fixing one of them inevitably seemed to
break the other. At one point, a patch I seriously considered applying
from Michael Tokarev did a "strcmp()" to see if it was automount that
was doing the operation. Ugly, ugly.
However, a prettier solution exists now thanks to the packetized pipe
mode. By marking the communication pipe as being packetized (by simply
setting the O_DIRECT flag), we can always just write the bigger packet
size, and if user-space does a smaller read, it will just get that
partial end result and the extra alignment padding will simply be thrown
away.
This makes both automount and systemd happy, since they now get the size
they asked for, and the kernel side of autofs simply no longer needs to
care - it could pad out the packet arbitrarily.
Of course, if there is some *other* user of autofs (please, please,
please tell me it ain't so - and we haven't heard of any) that tries to
read the packets with multiple writes, that other user will now be
broken - the whole point of the packetized mode is that one system call
gets exactly one packet, and you cannot read a packet in pieces.

The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about
individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that
as a special packetized mode.
When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by
Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous
writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe
buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn
will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw
away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer).
End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that
the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a
packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at
a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is
sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway),
and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of
the packet.
NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and
writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will
currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that
happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF).
Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to
explicitly support bigger packets some day.
The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface,
allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes
(which have had bugs with 32/64-bit compatibility modes). But user
space can create packetized pipes with "pipe2(fd, O_DIRECT)", which will
fail with an EINVAL on kernels that do not support this interface.

"This has our collection of bug fixes. I missed the last rc because I
thought our patches were making NFS crash during my xfs test runs.
Turns out it was an NFS client bug fixed by someone else while I tried
to bisect it.
All of these fixes are small, but some are fairly high impact. The
biggest are fixes for our mount -o remount handling, a deadlock due to
GFP_KERNEL allocations in readdir, and a RAID10 error handling bug.
This was tested against both 3.3 and Linus' master as of this morning."

drm/i915: Set the Stencil Cache eviction policy to non-LRA mode.
drm/radeon/kms: need to set up ss on DP bridges as well
While that commit was technically the right thing to do, and made the
x86-64 compat mode work identically to native 32-bit mode (and thus
fixing the problem with a 32-bit systemd install on a 64-bit kernel), it
turns out that the automount binaries had workarounds for this compat
problem.
Now, the workarounds are disgusting: doing an "uname()" to find out the
architecture of the kernel, and then comparing it for the 64-bit cases
and fixing up the size of the read() in automount for those. And they
were confused: it's not actually a generic 64-bit issue at all, it's
very much tied to just x86-64, which has different alignment for an
'u64' in 64-bit mode than in 32-bit mode.
But the end result is that fixing the compat layer actually breaks the
case of a 32-bit automount on a x86-64 kernel.
There are various approaches to fix this (including just doing a
"strcmp()" on current->comm and comparing it to "automount"), but I
think that I will do the one that teaches pipes about a special "packet
mode", which will allow user space to not have to care too deeply about
the padding at the end of the autofs packet.
That change will make the compat workaround unnecessary, so let's revert
it first, and get automount working again in compat mode. The
packetized pipes will then fix autofs for systemd.

drm/i915: Set the Stencil Cache eviction policy to non-LRA mode.
Clearing bit 5 of CACHE_MODE_0 is necessary to prevent GPU hangs in
OpenGL programs such as Google MapsGL, Google Earth, and gzdoom when
using separate stencil buffers. Without it, the GPU tries to use the
LRA eviction policy, which isn't supported. This was supposed to be off
by default, but seems to be on for many machines.
This cannot be done in gen6_init_clock_gating with most of the other
workaround bits; the render ring needs to exist. Otherwise, the
register write gets dropped on the floor (one printk will show it
changed, but a second printk immediately following shows the value
reverts to the old one).

Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"Some of these had been in existence since the 2.6.27 days, some since
3.0 - and some due to new features added in v3.4.
The one that is most interesting is David's one - in the low-level
assembler code we had be checking events needlessly. With his patch
now we do it when the appropriate flag is set - with the added benefit
that we can process events faster. Stefano's is fixing a mistake
where the Linux IRQ numbers were ACK-ed instead of the Xen IRQ,
resulting in missing interrupts. The other ones are bootup related
that can show up on various hardware."
- In the low-level assembler code we would jump to check events even if
none were present. This incorrect behavior had been there since
2.6.27 days!
- When using the fast-path for ACK-ing interrupts we were using the
Linux IRQ numbers instead of the Xen ones (and they can differ) and
missing interrupts in process.
- Fix bootup crashes when ACPI hotplug CPUs were present and they would
expand past the set number of CPUs we were allocated.
- Deal with broken BIOSes when uploading C-states to the hypervisor.
- Disable the cpuid check for MWAIT_LEAF if the ACPI PAD driver is
loaded. If the ACPI PAD driver is used it will crash, so lets not
export the functionality so the ACPI PAD driver won't load.

Pull build fixes for less mainstream architectures from Paul Gortmaker:
"These are fixes for frv(1), blackfin(2), powerpc(1) and xtensa(4).
Fortunately the touches are nearly all specific to files just used by
the arch in question. The two touches to shared/common files
[kernel/irq/debug.h and drivers/pci/Makefile] are trivial to assess as
no risk to anyone.
Half of them relate to xtensa directly. It was only when I fixed the
last xtensa issue that I realized that the arch has been broken for a
significant time, and isn't a specific v3.4 regression. So if you
wanted, we could leave xtensa lying bleeding in the street for a
couple more weeks and queue those for 3.5. But given they are no risk
to anyone outside of xtensa, I figured to just leave them in.
If you are OK with taking the xtensa fixes, then please pull to get:
- one last implicit include uncovered by system.h that is in a file
specific to just one powerpc defconfig. (I'd sync'd with BenH).
- fix an oversight in the PCI makefile where shared code wasn't being
compiled for ARCH=frv
- fix a missing include for GPIO in blackfin framebuffer.
- audit and tag endif in blackfin ezkit board file, in order to find
and fix the misplaced endif masking a block of code.
- fix irq/debug.h choice of temporary macro names to be more internal
so they don't conflict with names used by xtensa.
- fix a reference to an undeclared local var in xtensa's signal.c
- fix an implicit bug.h usage in xtensa's asm/io.h uncovered by my
removing bug.h from kernel.h
- fix xtensa to properly indicate it is using asm-generic/hardirq.h
in order to resolve the link error - undefined ack_bad_irq
The xtensa still fails final link as my latest binutils does something
evil when ld forward-relocates unlikely() blocks, but in theory people
who have older/valid toolchains could now use the thing."

xen: correctly check for pending events when restoring irq flags
In xen_restore_fl_direct(), xen_force_evtchn_callback() was being
called even if no events were pending. This resulted in (depending on
workload) about a 100 times as many xen_version hypercalls as
necessary.
Fix this by correcting the sense of the conditional jump.
This seems to give a significant performance benefit for some
workloads.
There is some subtle tricksy "..since the check here is trying to
check both pending and masked in a single cmpw, but I think this is
correct. It will call check_events now only when the combined
mask+pending word is 0x0001 (aka unmasked, pending)." (Ian)
