proc: make struct proc_dir_entry::name a terminal array rather than a pointer
Since __proc_create() appends the name it is given to the end of the PDE
structure that it allocates, there isn't a need to store a name pointer.
Instead we can just replace the name pointer with a terminal char array of
_unspecified_ length. The compiler will simply append the string to statically
defined variables of PDE type overlapping any hole at the end of the structure
and, unlike specifying an explicitly _zero_ length array, won't give a warning
if you try to statically initialise it with a string of more than zero length.
Also, whilst we're at it:
(1) Move namelen to end just prior to name and reduce it to a single byte
(name shouldn't be longer than NAME_MAX).
(2) Move pde_unload_lock two places further on so that if it's four bytes in
size on a 64-bit machine, it won't cause an unused hole in the PDE struct.

Btrfs: make a lockdep class for each root
This patch was originally from Tejun Heo. lockdep complains about the btrfs
locking because we sometimes take btree locks from two different trees at the
same time. The current classes are based only on level in the btree, which
isn't enough information for lockdep to figure out if the lock is safe.

Btrfs: switch the btrfs tree locks to reader/writer
The btrfs metadata btree is the source of significant
lock contention, especially in the root node. This
commit changes our locking to use a reader/writer
lock.
The lock is built on top of rw spinlocks, and it
extends the lock tracking to remember if we have a
read lock or a write lock when we go to blocking. Atomics
count the number of blocking readers or writers at any
given time.
It removes all of the adaptive spinning from the old code
and uses only the spinning/blocking hints inside of btrfs
to decide when it should continue spinning.
In read heavy workloads this is dramatically faster. In write
heavy workloads we're still faster because of less contention
on the root node lock.
We suffer slightly in dbench because we schedule more often
during write locks, but all other benchmarks so far are improved.

ramoops: use module parameters instead of platform data if not available
Use generic module parameters instead of platform data, if platform data
are not available. This limitation has been introduced with commit c3b92ce9e75 ("ramoops: use the platform data structure instead of module
params").

Vmware balloon: switch to using sysem-wide freezable workqueue
With the arrival of concurrency-managed workqueues there is no need for
our driver to use dedicated workqueue; system-wide one should suffice just
fine.
panic, vt: do not force oops output when panic_timeout < 0
Don't force output if you intend to reboot immediately.
In this patch, I'm disabling the functionality enabled by
vc->vc_panic_force_write if panic_timeout < 0 (i.e. no timeout).
vc_panic_force_write is only enabled for fb video consoles if the
FBINFO_CAN_FORCE_OUTPUT flag is set.
For our application, we're using ram_oops to preserved the panic in
memory. We want to reliably, and as fast as possible, machine_restart.
The vc_panic_force_write flag results in a bunch of graphics driver code
to be invoked which slows down restart and decreases reliability. Since
we're already storing the panic in RAM and are going to reboot
immediately, there is no benefit in mode switching back to the vc in
order to display the panic output. The log buffer will get flushed by
the console_unblank() call so remote management consoles should see all
output.
When a kernel BUG or oops occurs, ChromeOS intends to panic and
immediately reboot, with stacktrace and other messages preserved in RAM
across reboot.
But the longer we delay, the more likely the user is to poweroff and
lose the info.
panic_timeout (seconds before rebooting) is set by panic= boot option or
sysctl or /proc/sys/kernel/panic; but 0 means wait forever, so at
present we have to delay at least 1 second.
Let a negative number mean reboot immediately (with the small cosmetic
benefit of suppressing that newline-less "Rebooting in %d seconds.."
message).

Add support for the shm_rmid_forced sysctl. If set to 1, all shared
memory objects in current ipc namespace will be automatically forced to
use IPC_RMID.
The POSIX way of handling shmem allows one to create shm objects and
call shmdt(), leaving shm object associated with no process, thus
consuming memory not counted via rlimits.
With shm_rmid_forced=1 the shared memory object is counted at least for
one process, so OOM killer may effectively kill the fat process holding
the shared memory.
It obviously breaks POSIX - some programs relying on the feature would
stop working. So set shm_rmid_forced=1 only if you're sure nobody uses
"orphaned" memory. Use shm_rmid_forced=0 by default for compatability
reasons.
The feature was previously impemented in -ow as a configure option.

We return ENOMEM from mqueue_get_inode even when we have enough memory.
Namely in case the system rlimit of mqueue was reached. This error
propagates to mq_queue and user sees the error unexpectedly. So fix
this up to properly return EMFILE as described in the manpage:
EMFILE The process already has the maximum number of files and
message queues open.
instead of:
ENOMEM Insufficient memory.
With the previous patch we just switch to ERR_PTR/PTR_ERR/IS_ERR error
handling here.
If new_inode fails to allocate an inode we need only to return with
NULL. But now we test the opposite and have all the work in a nested
block. So do the opposite to save one indentation level (and remove
unnecessary line breaks).
This is only a preparation/cleanup for the next patch where we fix up
return values from mqueue_get_inode.

exec: do not call request_module() twice from search_binary_handler()
Currently, search_binary_handler() tries to load binary loader module
using request_module() if a loader for the requested program is not yet
loaded. But second attempt of request_module() does not affect the result
of search_binary_handler().
If request_module() triggered recursion, calling request_module() twice
causes 2 to the power of MAX_KMOD_CONCURRENT (= 50) repetitions. It is
not an infinite loop but is sufficient for users to consider as a hang up.
Therefore, this patch changes not to call request_module() twice, making 1
to the power of MAX_KMOD_CONCURRENT repetitions in case of recursion.

fs/exec.c: use BUILD_BUG_ON for VM_STACK_FLAGS & VM_STACK_INCOMPLETE_SETUP
Commit a8bef8ff6ea1 ("mm: migration: avoid race between
shift_arg_pages() and rmap_walk() during migration by not migrating
temporary stacks") introduced a BUG_ON() to ensure that VM_STACK_FLAGS
and VM_STACK_INCOMPLETE_SETUP do not overlap. The check is a compile
time one, so BUILD_BUG_ON is more appropriate.

If an inode's mode permits opening /proc/PID/io and the resulting file
descriptor is kept across execve() of a setuid or similar binary, the
ptrace_may_access() check tries to prevent using this fd against the
task with escalated privileges.
Unfortunately, there is a race in the check against execve(). If
execve() is processed after the ptrace check, but before the actual io
information gathering, io statistics will be gathered from the
privileged process. At least in theory this might lead to gathering
sensible information (like ssh/ftp password length) that wouldn't be
available otherwise.
Holding task->signal->cred_guard_mutex while gathering the io
information should protect against the race.
The order of locking is similar to the one inside of ptrace_attach():
first goes cred_guard_mutex, then lock_task_sighand().

procfs: return ENOENT on opening a being-removed proc entry
Change the return value to ENOENT. This return value is then returned
when opening the proc entry that have been removed. For example,
open("/proc/bus/pci/XX/YY") when the corresponding device is being
hot-removed.
