This isn't a real fix to the problem, but rather a stopgap measure while
trying to find a proper solution.
There are several laptops out there that fail to light up the eDP panel
in UEFI boot mode. They seem to be mostly IVB machines, including but
apparently not limited to Dell XPS 13, Asus TX300, Asus UX31A, Asus
UX32VD, Acer Aspire S7. They seem to work in CSM or legacy boot.
The difference between UEFI and CSM is that the BIOS provides a
different VBT to the kernel. The UEFI VBT typically specifies 18 bpp and
1.62 GHz link for eDP, while CSM VBT has 24 bpp and 2.7 GHz link. We end
up clamping to 18 bpp in UEFI mode, which we can fit in the 1.62 Ghz
link, and for reasons yet unknown fail to light up the panel.
Dithering from 24 to 18 bpp itself seems to work; if we use 18 bpp with
2.7 GHz link, the eDP panel lights up. So essentially this is a link
speed issue, and *not* a bpp clamping issue.
The bug raised its head since
commit 657445fe8660100ad174600ebfa61536392b7624
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
Date: Sat May 4 10:09:18 2013 +0200
which started clamping bpp *before* computing the link requirements, and
thus affecting the required bandwidth. Clamping after the computations
kept the link at 2.7 GHz.
Even though the BIOS tells us to use 18 bpp through the VBT, it happily
boots up at 24 bpp and 2.7 GHz itself! Use this information to
selectively ignore the VBT provided value.
We can't ignore the VBT eDP bpp altogether, as there are other laptops
that do require the clamping to be used due to EDID reporting higher bpp
than the panel can support.

net: unix: inherit SOCK_PASS{CRED, SEC} flags from socket to fix race
In the case of credentials passing in unix stream sockets (dgram
sockets seem not affected), we get a rather sparse race after
commit 16e5726 ("af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default").
We have a stream server on receiver side that requests credential
passing from senders (e.g. nc -U). Since we need to set SO_PASSCRED
on each spawned/accepted socket on server side to 1 first (as it's
not inherited), it can happen that in the time between accept() and
setsockopt() we get interrupted, the sender is being scheduled and
continues with passing data to our receiver. At that time SO_PASSCRED
is neither set on sender nor receiver side, hence in cmsg's
SCM_CREDENTIALS we get eventually pid:0, uid:65534, gid:65534
(== overflow{u,g}id) instead of what we actually would like to see.
On the sender side, here nc -U, the tests in maybe_add_creds()
invoked through unix_stream_sendmsg() would fail, as at that exact
time, as mentioned, the sender has neither SO_PASSCRED on his side
nor sees it on the server side, and we have a valid 'other' socket
in place. Thus, sender believes it would just look like a normal
connection, not needing/requesting SO_PASSCRED at that time.
As reverting 16e5726 would not be an option due to the significant
performance regression reported when having creds always passed,
one way/trade-off to prevent that would be to set SO_PASSCRED on
the listener socket and allow inheriting these flags to the spawned
socket on server side in accept(). It seems also logical to do so
if we'd tell the listener socket to pass those flags onwards, and
would fix the race.

Merge branch 'bridge_pvid'
Toshiaki Makita says:
====================
bridge: Fix problems around the PVID
There seem to be some undesirable behaviors related with PVID.
1. It has no effect assigning PVID to a port. PVID cannot be applied
to any frame regardless of whether we set it or not.
2. FDB entries learned via frames applied PVID are registered with
VID 0 rather than VID value of PVID.
3. We can set 0 or 4095 as a PVID that are not allowed in IEEE 802.1Q.
This leads interoperational problems such as sending frames with VID
4095, which is not allowed in IEEE 802.1Q, and treating frames with VID
0 as they belong to VLAN 0, which is expected to be handled as they have
no VID according to IEEE 802.1Q.
Note: 2nd and 3rd problems are potential and not exposed unless 1st problem
is fixed, because we cannot activate PVID due to it.
This is my analysis for each behavior.
1. We are using VLAN_TAG_PRESENT bit when getting PVID, and not when
adding/deleting PVID.
It can be fixed in either way using or not using VLAN_TAG_PRESENT,
but I think the latter is slightly more efficient.
2. We are setting skb->vlan_tci with the value of PVID but the variable
vid, which is used in FDB later, is set to 0 at br_allowed_ingress()
when untagged frames arrive at a port with PVID valid. I'm afraid that
vid should be updated to the value of PVID if PVID is valid.
3. According to IEEE 802.1Q-2011 (6.9.1 and Table 9-2), we cannot use
VID 0 or 4095 as a PVID.
It looks like that there are more stuff to consider.
- VID 0:
VID 0 shall not be configured in any FDB entry and used in a tag header
to indicate it is a 802.1p priority-tagged frame.
Priority-tagged frames should be applied PVID (from IEEE 802.1Q 6.9.1).
In my opinion, since we can filter incomming priority-tagged frames by
deleting PVID, we don't need to filter them by vlan_bitmap.
In other words, priority-tagged frames don't have VID 0 but have no VID,
which is the same as untagged frames, and should be filtered by unsetting
PVID.
So, not only we cannot set PVID as 0, but also we don't need to add 0 to
vlan_bitmap, which enables us to simply forbid to add vlan 0.
- VID 4095:
VID 4095 shall not be transmitted in a tag header. This VID value may be
used to indicate a wildcard match for the VID in management operations or
FDB entries (from IEEE 802.1Q Table 9-2).
In current implementation, we can create a static FDB entry with all
existing VIDs by not specifying any VID when creating it.
I don't think this way to add wildcard-like entries needs to change,
and VID 4095 looks no use and can be unacceptable to add.
Consequently, I believe what we should do for 3rd problem is below:
- Not allowing VID 0 and 4095 to be added.
- Applying PVID to priority-tagged (VID 0) frames.
Note: It has been descovered that another problem related to priority-tags
remains. If we use vlan 0 interface such as eth0.0, we cannot communicate
with another end station via a linux bridge.
This problem exists regardless of whether this patch set is applied or not
because we might receive untagged frames from another end station even if we
are sending priority-tagged frames.
This issue will be addressed by another patch set introducing an additional
egress policy, on which Vlad Yasevich is working.
See http://marc.info/?t=137880893800001&r=1&w=2 for detailed discussion.
Patch set follows this mail.
The order of patches is not the same as described above, because the way
to fix 1st problem is based on the assumption that we don't use VID 0 as
a PVID, which is realized by fixing 3rd problem.
(1/4)(2/4): Fix 3rd problem.
(3/4): Fix 1st problem.
(4/4): Fix 2nd probelm.
v2:
- Add descriptions about the problem related to priority-tags in cover letter.
- Revise patch comments to reference the newest spec.

Polling TX statuses too frequently has two negative effects. First is
randomly peek CPU usage, causing overall system functioning delays.
Second bad effect is that device is not able to fill TX statuses in

drm/i915: Disable GGTT PTEs on GEN6+ suspend
Once the machine gets to a certain point in the suspend process, we
expect the GPU to be idle. If it is not, we might corrupt memory.
Empirically (with an early version of this patch) we have seen this is
not the case. We cannot currently explain why the latent GPU writes
occur.
In the technical sense, this patch is a workaround in that we have an
issue we can't explain, and the patch indirectly solves the issue.
However, it's really better than a workaround because we understand why
it works, and it really should be a safe thing to do in all cases.
The noticeable effect other than the debug messages would be an increase
in the suspend time. I have not measure how expensive it actually is.
I think it would be good to spend further time to root cause why we're
seeing these latent writes, but it shouldn't preclude preventing the
fallout.
NOTE: It should be safe (and makes some sense IMO) to also keep the
VALID bit unset on resume when we clear_range(). I've opted not to do
this as properly clearing those bits at some later point would be extra
work.

tty/serial: at91: fix uart/usart selection for older products
Since commit 055560b04a8cd063aea916fd083b7aec02c2adb8 (serial: at91:
distinguish usart and uart) the older products which do not have a
name field in their register map are unable to use their serial output.
As the main console output is usually the serial interface (aka DBGU) it
is pretty unfortunate.
So, instead of failing during probe() we just silently configure the serial
peripheral as an uart. It allows us to use these serial outputs.
The proper solution is proposed in another patch.

tcp: remove the sk_can_gso() check from tcp_set_skb_tso_segs()
sk_can_gso() should only be used as a hint in tcp_sendmsg() to build GSO
packets in the first place. (As a performance hint)
Once we have GSO packets in write queue, we can not decide they are no
longer GSO only because flow now uses a route which doesn't handle
TSO/GSO.
Core networking stack handles the case very well for us, all we need
is keeping track of packet counts in MSS terms, regardless of
segmentation done later (in GSO or hardware)
Right now, if tcp_fragment() splits a GSO packet in two parts,
@left and @right, and route changed through a non GSO device,
both @left and @right have pcount set to 1, which is wrong,
and leads to incorrect packet_count tracking.
This problem was added in commit d5ac99a648 ("[TCP]: skb pcount with MTU

TCP stack should make sure it owns skbs before mangling them.
We had various crashes using bnx2x, and it turned out gso_size

of the _previous_ packet send. TCP stack can sometime retransmit
packets that are still in Qdisc.
Of course we could make bnx2x driver more robust (using
ACCESS_ONCE(shinfo->gso_size) for example), but the bug is TCP stack.

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is
address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for
the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area.
__get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store and retrieve operations
could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use
optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr()
or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided
and less registers are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too.
The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then
specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by
f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, u);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(this_cpu_ptr(&x), y, sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
this_cpu_inc(y)

ACPI / PM: Drop two functions that are not used any more
Two functions defined in device_pm.c, acpi_dev_pm_add_dependent()
and acpi_dev_pm_remove_dependent(), have no callers and may be
dropped, so drop them.
Moreover, they are the only functions adding entries to and removing
entries from the power_dependent list in struct acpi_device, so drop
that list too.
