rbd: don't use sscanf() in rbd_add_parse_args()
Make use of a few simple helper routines to parse the arguments
rather than sscanf(). This will treat both missing and too-long
arguments as invalid input (rather than silently truncating the
input in the too-long case). In time this can also be used by
rbd_add() to use the passed-in buffer in place, rather than copying
its contents into new buffers.
It appears to me that the sscanf() previously used would not
correctly handle a supplied snapshot--the two final "%s" conversion
specifications were not separated by a space, and I'm not sure
how sscanf() handles that situation. It may not be well-defined.
So that may be a bug this change fixes (but I didn't verify that).
The sizes of the mon_addrs and options buffers are now passed to
rbd_add_parse_args(), so they can be supplied to copy_token().

comma-separated monitor IP addresses, each with an optional port
number. I think "mon_addrs" captures that notion a little better.

In order to select a new unique identifier for an added rbd device,
the list of all existing ones is searched and a value one greater
than the highest id is used.
The list search can be avoided by using an atomic variable that
keeps track of the current highest id. Using a get/put model for
id's we can limit the boundless growth of id numbers a bit by
arranging to reuse the current highest id once it gets released.
Add these calls to "put" the id when an rbd is getting removed.
Note that this changes the pattern of device id's used--new values
will never be below the highest one seen so far (even if there
exists an unused lower one). I assert this is OK because the key
property of an rbd id is its uniqueness, not its magnitude.
Regardless, a follow-on patch will restore the old way of doing
things, I just think this commit just makes the incremental change

sch_sfq: revert dont put new flow at the end of flows
This reverts commit d47a0ac7b6 (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of
flows)
As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects.
In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent
old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for
unlimited amount of time.
It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would
add complexity outside of SFQ scope.
A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I
tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy
so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.

memcg: free mem_cgroup by RCU to fix oops
After fixing the GPF in mem_cgroup_lru_del_list(), three times one
machine running a similar load (moving and removing memcgs while
swapping) has oopsed in mem_cgroup_zone_nr_lru_pages(), when retrieving
memcg zone numbers for get_scan_count() for shrink_mem_cgroup_zone():
this is where a struct mem_cgroup is first accessed after being chosen
by mem_cgroup_iter().
Just what protects a struct mem_cgroup from being freed, in between
mem_cgroup_iter()'s css_get_next() and its css_tryget()? css_tryget()
fails once css->refcnt is zero with CSS_REMOVED set in flags, yes: but
what if that memory is freed and reused for something else, which sets
"refcnt" non-zero? Hmm, and scope for an indefinite freeze if refcnt is
left at zero but flags are cleared.
It's tempting to move the css_tryget() into css_get_next(), to make it
really "get" the css, but I don't think that actually solves anything:
the same difficulty in moving from css_id found to stable css remains.
But we already have rcu_read_lock() around the two, so it's easily fixed
if __mem_cgroup_free() just uses kfree_rcu() to free mem_cgroup.
However, a big struct mem_cgroup is allocated with vzalloc() instead of
kzalloc(), and we're not allowed to vfree() at interrupt time: there
doesn't appear to be a general vfree_rcu() to help with this, so roll
our own using schedule_work(). The compiler decently removes
vfree_work() and vfree_rcu() when the config doesn't need them.

Unfortunately this is not how snprintf works. snprintf returns the
number of characters that would have been written if there was enough
space. In the above case, if the first snprintf returns a value larger
than size, we pass a negative size into the second snprintf and happily
scribble over the stack. If you have 3000 character c++ methods thats a
lot of stack to trample.
This patch fixes repsep_snprintf by clamping the value at size - 1 which
is the maximum snprintf can write before adding the NULL terminator.
I get the sinking feeling that there are a lot of other uses of snprintf
that have this same bug, we should audit them all.
