floppy: cancel any pending fd_timeouts before adding a new one
In commit 070ad7e793dc ("floppy: convert to delayed work and
single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed
work. However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process,
and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then
re-queued the timeout.
This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout
rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the
floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it
should.
Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy
driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed.
Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the
issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead.
The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s
one.

dm thin: commit metadata before creating metadata snapshot
Userland sometimes sees a corrupt metadata block if metadata is changing
rapidly when a metadata snapshot is reserved for userland, To make the
problem go away, commit before we take the metadata snapshot (which is a
sensible thing to do anyway).
The checksums mean userland spots this corruption immediately so there's
no risk of acting on incorrect data. No corruption exists from the
kernel's point of view, and thin_check passes after pool shutdown.
I believe this is to do with shared blocks at the first level of the
{device, mapping} btree. Prior to the metadata-snap support no sharing
at this level was possible, so this patch is only required after commit cc8394d86f045b86ff303d3c9e4ce47d97148951 ("dm thin: provide userspace

Especially vesafb likes to map everything as uc- (yikes), and if that

kernel will downgrade our request to uc-, resulting in abyssal
performance.
Unfortunately we can't do this as early as readon does (i.e. as the
first thing we do when initializing the hw) because our fb/mmio space
region moves around on a per-gen basis. So I've had to move it below
the gtt initialization, but that seems to work, too. The important
thing is that we do this before we set up the gtt wc mapping.
Now an altogether different question is why people compile their
kernels with vesafb enabled, but I guess making things just work isn't
bad per se ...

When a monitor EDID doesn't give the preferred bit, driver assumes
that the mode with the higest resolution and rate is the preferred
mode. Meanwhile the recent changes for allowing more modes in the
GFT/CVT ranges give actually more modes, and some modes may be over
the native size. Thus such a mode would be picked up as the preferred
mode although it's no native resolution.

The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things. This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.
So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.
RAID5 is a bit different. Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe. So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread. So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.
Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.
Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.
This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later. I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.
We currently only allow a device to be re-added if it appear to be
in-sync. This is overly restrictive as it may be desirable to re-add
a device that is in the middle of recovery.
So remove the test for "InSync" - the test on rdev->raid_disk is
sufficient to ensure that the re-add will succeed.

md/raid5: prefer replacing failed devices over want-replacement devices.
If a RAID5 has both a failed device and a device marked as
'WantReplacement', then we should preferentially replace the failed
device.
However the current code replaces whichever is found first.
So split into 2 loops, check fail failed/missing first, and only check
for WantReplacement if nothing is failed or missing.
md/raid10: Don't try to recovery unmatched (and unused) chunks.
If a RAID10 has an odd number of chunks - as might happen when there
are an odd number of devices - the last chunk has no pair and so is
not mirrored. We don't store data there, but when recovering the last
device in an array we retry to recover that last chunk from a
non-existent location. This results in an error, and the recovery
aborts.
When we get to that last chunk we should just stop - there is nothing
more to do anyway.
This bug has been present since the introduction of RAID10, so the
patch is appropriate for any -stable kernel.

xmon_core
xmon
die
xmon is iterating through 0 to NR_CPUS. I'm not sure why we are still
open coding this but iterating above nr_cpu_ids is definitely a bug.
This patch iterates through all possible cpus, in case we issue a
system reset and CPUs in an offline state call in.
Perhaps the old code was trying to handle CPUs that were in the
partition but were never started (eg kexec into a kernel with an
nr_cpus= boot option). They are going to die way before we get into
xmon since we haven't set any kernel state up for them.

batman-adv: Don't leak information through uninitialized packet fields
The reserved fields in batman-adv packets are not set to a constant value. The
content of these memory regions is leaked unintentionally to the network.

batman-adv: Remove bat_ prefix from bat_{debugfs, sysfs}.{c, h}
The "bat_" prefix in the source files implementing the batman-adv sysfs and
debugfs interface doesn't have a special meaning and are only used by these
files and files that implement the actual B.A.T.M.A.N. path finding algorithm.
The prefix is better suited to mark files that are used to implement the main
part of the path finding. All other files should not use it and therefore gets
renamed.

batman-adv: Transform BATADV_LOG_BUFF(idx) into function
The linux Documentation/CodingStyle says that:
* Chapter 12: "inline functions are preferable to macros resembling functions"
* Chapter 12.2: Depending on local variables with a magic name is bad
* Chapter 12.3: Macros with arguments used as l-value are bad
