genetlink: fix usage of NLM_F_EXCL or NLM_F_REPLACE
Currently, it is not possible to use neither NLM_F_EXCL nor
NLM_F_REPLACE from genetlink. This is due to this checking in
genl_family_rcv_msg:
if (nlh->nlmsg_flags & NLM_F_DUMP)
NLM_F_DUMP is NLM_F_MATCH|NLM_F_ROOT. Thus, if NLM_F_EXCL or
NLM_F_REPLACE flag is set, genetlink believes that you're
requesting a dump and it calls the .dumpit callback.
The solution that I propose is to refine this checking to
make it stricter:
if ((nlh->nlmsg_flags & NLM_F_DUMP) == NLM_F_DUMP)
And given the combination NLM_F_REPLACE and NLM_F_EXCL does
not make sense to me, it removes the ambiguity.
There was a patch that tried to fix this some time ago (0ab03c2
netlink: test for all flags of the NLM_F_DUMP composite) but it
tried to resolve this ambiguity in *all* existing netlink subsystems,
not only genetlink. That patch was reverted since it broke iproute2,
which is using NLM_F_ROOT to request the dump of the routing cache.

s390: convert interrupt handling to use generic hardirq
With the introduction of PCI it became apparent that s390 should
convert to generic hardirqs as too many drivers do not have the
correct dependency for GENERIC_HARDIRQS. On the architecture
level s390 does not have irq lines. It has external interrupts,
I/O interrupts and adapter interrupts. This patch hard-codes all
external interrupts as irq #1, all I/O interrupts as irq #2 and
all adapter interrupts as irq #3. The additional information from
the lowcore associated with the interrupt is stored in the
pt_regs of the interrupt frame, where the interrupt handler can
pick it up. For PCI/MSI interrupts the adapter interrupt handler
scans the relevant bit fields and calls generic_handle_irq with
the virtual irq number for the MSI interrupt.

ARC ASID allocator used asid_mm_map[ ] to find a mm corresponding to an
ASID. This would help identify an existing assignee (from a prev
allocation cycle) and force it to be marked as unallocated so that it
would know to refresh it's ASID when it's mm is switched.
Without the reverse map, it is not possible to reach out to current
assignee so we track the ASID allocations generations and on every
switch mm, refresh the ASID if it is from prev generation.
The motivation for this change is SMP ASID allocatino which wiuld have
required a multi-dimensional asid-to-mmp[ ][ ].
(1) get_new_mmu_context() moves mm->ASID to a new value ONLY if it was
from a prev allocation cycle/generation OR if mm had no ASID
allocated (as opposed to before where it would unconditionally
assign it a new ASID)
Callers desiring unconditional update of ASID, e.g.local_flush_tlb_mm()
(for parent's addess space invalidation at fork) need to first force
the parent to an unallocated ASID.
(2) get_new_mmu_context() always sets the MMU PID reg with unchanged/new
ASID value.
The gains are:
- consolidation of all asid alloc logic into get_new_mmu_context()
- avoiding code duplication in switch_mm() for PID reg setting
- Enables future change to fold activate_mm() into switch_mm()

ARC: MMUv4 preps/1 - Fold PTE K/U access flags
The current ARC VM code has 13 flags in Page Table entry: some software
(accesed/dirty/non-linear-maps) and rest hardware specific. With 8k MMU
page, we need 19 bits for addressing page frame so remaining 13 bits is
just about enough to accomodate the current flags.
In MMUv4 there are 2 additional flags, SZ (normal or super page) and WT
(cache access mode write-thru) - and additionally PFN is 20 bits (vs. 19
before for 8k). Thus these can't be held in current PTE w/o making each
entry 64bit wide.
It seems there is some scope of compressing the current PTE flags (and
freeing up a few bits). Currently PTE contains fully orthogonal distinct
access permissions for kernel and user mode (Kr, Kw, Kx; Ur, Uw, Ux)
which can be folded into one set (R, W, X). The translation of 3 PTE
bits into 6 TLB bits (when programming the MMU) can be done based on
following pre-requites/assumptions:
1. For kernel-mode-only translations (vmalloc: 0x7000_0000 to
0x7FFF_FFFF), PTE additionally has PAGE_GLOBAL flag set (and user
space entries can never be global). Thus such a PTE can translate
to Kr, Kw, Kx (as appropriate) and zero for User mode counterparts.
2. For non global entries, the PTE flags can be used to create mirrored
K and U TLB bits. This is true after commit a950549c675f2c8c504
"ARC: copy_(to|from)_user() to honor usermode-access permissions"
which ensured that user-space translations _MUST_ have same access
permissions for both U/K mode accesses so that copy_{to,from}_user()
play fair with fault based CoW break and such...
There is no such thing as free lunch - the cost is slightly infalted
TLB-Miss Handlers.
In the exception return path, for both U/K cases, intr are already
disabled (for various existing reasons). So when we drop down to
@restore_regs, we need not redo that.
There was subtle issue - when intr were NOT being disabled for
ret-to-kernel-but-no-preemption case - now fixed by moving the
IRQ_DISABLE further up in @resume_kernel_mode.
So what do we gain:
* Shaves off a few insn in return path.
* Eliminates the need for IRQ_DISABLE_SAVE assembler macro for ARCv2
hence allows for entry code sharing.
After the recent cleanups, all the exception handlers now have same
boilerplate prologue code. Move that into common macro.
This reduces readability but helps greatly with sharing / duplicating
entry code with ARCv2 ISA where the handlers are pretty much the same,
just the entry prologue is different (due to hardware assist).
Also while at it, add the missing FAKE_RET_FROM_EXCPN calls in couple of
places to drop down to pure kernel mode (from exception mode) before
jumping off into "C" code.
parisc: Fix interrupt routing for C8000 serial ports
We can't use dev->mod_index for selecting the interrupt routing entry,
because it's not an index into interrupt routing table. It will be even
wrong on a machine with 2 CPUs (4 cores). But all needed information is
contained in the PAT entries for the serial ports. mod[0] contains the
iosapic address and mod_info has some indications for the interrupt
input (at least it looks like it). This patch implements the searching
for the right iosapic and uses this interrupt input information.

staging: zcache: fix "zcache=" kernel parameter
Commit 835f2f5 ("staging: zcache: enable zcache to be built/loaded as

Inside zcache_comp_init() function, zcache_comp_name variable is
checked for being empty. If not empty, the above variable is tested
for being compatible with Crypto API. Unfortunately, after that
function ends unconditionally (by the "goto out" directive) and returns:
- non-zero value if verification succeeded, wrongly indicating an error
- zero value if verification failed, falsely informing that function
zcache_comp_init() ended properly.
A solution to this problem is as following:
1. Move the "goto out" directive inside the "if (!ret)" statement
2. In case that crypto_has_comp() returned 0, change the value of ret
to non-zero before "goto out" to indicate an error.
This patch replaces an earlier one from Michal Hocko (based on report
from Cristian Rodriguez):
It also addressed the same issue but didn't fix the zcache_comp_init()
for case when the compressor data passed to "zcache=" option was invalid

"Oleg is working on fixing a very tight race between opening a event
file and deleting that event at the same time (both must be done as
root).
I also found a bug while testing Oleg's patches which has to do with a
race with kprobes using the function tracer.
There's also a deadlock fix that was introduced with the previous
fixes"

igb: fix vlan filtering in promisc mode when not in VT mode
This patch fixes a VT mode check to make sure VLAN filters are disabled when
in promisc mode and VT is not enabled.
The problem with the previous check was that:
E1000_MRQC_ENABLE_VMDQ is defined as 0x00000003
but when not in VT mode:
mrqc |= E1000_MRQC_ENABLE_RSS_4Q (0x00000002)
So the above check will trigger regardless if VT mode is being used or not.

This patch fixes an issue with the 82598EB device, where lldpad is causing Tx
Hangs on the card as soon as it attempts to configure DCB for the device. The
adapter will continually Tx hang and reset in a loop.
