workqueue: avoid using deprecated functions
The network merge brought in a few users of functions that got
deprecated by the workqueue cleanups: the 'system_nrt_wq' is now the
same as the regular system_wq, since all workqueues are now non-
reentrant.
Similarly, remove one use of flush_work_sync() - the regular
flush_work() has become synchronous, and the "_sync()" version is thus
deprecated as being superfluous.
Don't check MAY_WRITE as a newly created file may not have write mode bits,
but POSIX allows the creating process to write regardless.
This is ok because NFSv4 OPEN ops handle write permissions correctly -
the ACCESS in the OPEN compound is to differentiate READ v EXEC permissions.
Fixes a regression due to commit 6168f62c (NFSv4: Add ACCESS operation to
OPEN compound)

9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very
many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.
From Eric Dumazet.
10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are
a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace
support. This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces
enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user
namespace. Everything is converted except for the most complex of the
filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs,
nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review.
The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into
subsystems and filesystems as reasonable. Leaving the make_kuid and
from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values
come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network.
Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user
namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues.
The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit
union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int.
Those places were converted into explicit unions. I made certain to
handle those places with simple trivial patches.
Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing
quota by projid. I had never heard of the project identifiers before.
Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts
for most of the code size growth in my git tree.
Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from
"capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing
root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to
non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications.
While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code
I made a few other cleanups. I capitalized on the fact we process
netlink messages in the context of the message sender. I removed
usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.
Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no
problems from identical code from different trees showing up in
linux-next.
After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to
win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

"This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1. A lot of activities this
round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.
* delayed_work combines a timer and a work item. The handling of the
timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors. delayed_work is
updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
expected.
* Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
timer+work usages. mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.
These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
and behave like timer which is executed with process context.
* A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
half-broken under certain circumstances. This problem doesn't
exist for non-reentrant workqueues. While non-reentrancy check
isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
the overhead isn't too high.
All workqueues are made non-reentrant. This removes the
distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
flush_[delayed_]_work_sync(). The former is now as strong as the
latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
execution of any previous queueing on return.
* In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
hotplug handling significantly.
* Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU
hotplug.
There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from
tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from

s390/mm,pageattr: add more page table walk sanity checks
The current page table walk code in pageattr.c only checks for large pages
while walking the kernel page table, but happily assumes that everything
else is just fine.
Add more checks so we never access invalid memory regions.

s390/mm: fix pmd_huge() usage for kernel mapping
pmd_huge() will always return 0 on !HUGETLBFS, however we use that helper
function when walking the kernel page tables to decide if we have a
1MB page frame or not.
Since we create 1MB frames for the kernel 1:1 mapping independently of
HUGETLBFS this can lead to incorrect storage accesses since the code
can assume that we have a pointer to a page table instead of a pointer
to a 1MB frame.
Fix this by adding a pmd_large() primitive like other architectures have
it already and remove all references to HUGETLBFS/HUGETLBPAGE from the
code that walks kernel page tables.

s390/dcssblk: cleanup device attribute usage
Let the driver core handle device attribute creation and removal. This

MACHINE_HAS_PFMF and MACHINE_HAS_HPAGE actually have the same semantics:
the cpu has the EDAT1 facility installed in zArch mode. So remove one

The two old macros simply get mapped to MACHINE_HAS_EDAT1.

ACPI: Add new sysfs interface to export device description
Add support to export the device description obtained from the ACPI _STR
method, if one exists for a device, to user-space via a sysfs interface.
This new interface provides a standard and platform neutral way for users
to obtain the description text stored in the ACPI _STR method. If no
_STR method exists for the device, no sysfs 'description' file will be
created. The 'description' file will be located in the /sys/devices/
directory using the device's path.
This fixes a local merge conflict resolution done wrong locally in
arm-soc for-next. soc.h was added on a cleanup branch, but the driver
was moved and the header no longer needed.

Merge tag 'multiplatform' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc
Pull ARM soc multiplatform enablement from Olof Johansson:
"This is a pretty significant branch. It's the introduction of the
first multiplatform support on ARM, and with this (and the later
branch) merged, it is now possible to build one kernel that contains
support for highbank, vexpress, mvebu, socfpga, and picoxcell. More
platforms will be convered over in the next few releases.
Two critical last things had to be done for this to be practical and
possible:
* Today each platform has its own include directory under
mach-<mach>/include/mach/*, and traditionally that is where a lot
of driver/platform shared definitions have gone, such as platform
data structures. They now need to move out to a common location
instead, and this branch moves a large number of those out to
include/linux/platform_data.
* Each platform used to list the device trees to compile for its
boards in mach-<mach>/Makefile.boot.
Both of the above changes will mean that there are some merge
conflicts to come (and some to resolve here). It's a one-time move
and once it settles in, we should be good for quite a while. Sorry
for the overhead."
Fix conflicts as per Olof.
