sh: Mark __switch_to() as __notrace_funcgraph
Annotate __switch_to() so that the function graph tracer does not try to
trace it. Use __notrace_funcgraph, as opposed to notrace, so that other
tracers can continue to trace __switch_to().
The reason that we don't want to trace __switch_to() with the function
graph tracer is because of how the return address stack in task_struct
is implemented. When we enter __switch_to we store the real return
address on prev's ret_stack. When we return from __switch_to() we've
patched the return address on the kernel stack to be
return_to_handler. Calling return_to_handler we do,
Which tries to pop the real return address from current->ret_stack. The
problem being that we stored the return address on prev->ret_stack, but
current now points to next, and next->ret_stack doesn't contain the
correct return address (and is possibly even empty).

dma-debug: Fix the overlap() function to be correct and readable
Linus noticed how unclean and buggy the overlap() function is:
- It uses convoluted (and bug-causing) positive checks for
range overlap - instead of using a more natural negative
check.
- Even the positive checks are buggy: a positive intersection
check has four natural cases while we checked only for three,
missing the (addr < start && addr2 == end) case for example.
- The variables are mis-named, making it non-obvious how the
check was done.
- It needlessly uses u64 instead of unsigned long. Since these
are kernel memory pointers and we explicitly exclude highmem
ranges anyway we cannot ever overflow 32 bits, even if we
could. (and on 64-bit it doesnt matter anyway)
All in one, this function needs a total revamp. I used Linus's
suggestions minus the paranoid checks (we cannot overflow really
because if we get totally bad DMA ranges passed far more things
break in the systems than just DMA debugging). I also fixed a
few other small details i noticed.

The semantics of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV were:
- copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer
- do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN
(data from device) variety. This would overwrite
some or all of the kernel buffer
- copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space.
The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original
user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would
seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way
of detecting short reads but that was only added this century
and requires co-operation from the LLD.
=
This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this
semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and
enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ
requests.
It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new
from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it
difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst
drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block
layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer
mapping API.
zhou sf reported this regiression and tested this patch:
Currently, blk_scsi_ioctl_init() is not called since it lacks
an initcall marking. This causes the command table to be
unitialized, hence somce commands are block when they should
not have been.

cxgb3 looks up the netdev_queue it stashes away in a qset during
initialization. For multiport devices, the TX queue index it uses is
offset by the first_qset index of each port. This leads to a crash
once LLTX is removed, since hard_start_xmit is called with one TX
queue lock held, while the TX reclaim timer task grabs a different
(wrong) TX queue lock when it frees skbs.

net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacks
Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with
receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper
to wrap the memory barrier.
Without the memory barrier, following race can happen.
The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt
and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches.
If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and
rcv_nxt are opposit to each other.
Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already
passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for
tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask.
In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the
waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1.
The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its
cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side. The CPU1 will then
endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the
socket.

The thing is that cond_resched() is a no-op when system_state !=

scheduled, therefore link detection doesn't work.
I belive that the main problem is in cond_resched()[1], but despite

It seems, the current threshold for root resizing is too aggressive,
and it causes misleading warnings during big updates, but it might be
also responsible for memory problems, especially with non-preempt
configs, when RCU freeing is delayed long after call_rcu.
It should be also mentioned that because of non-atomic changes during
resizing/rebalancing the current lookup algorithm can miss valid leaves
so it's additional argument to shorten these activities even at a cost
of a minimally longer searching.

According to this and other similar reports average depth is slightly
increased (~0.2), and root nodes are shorter (log 17 vs. 18), but
there is no visible performance decrease. So, until memory handling is
improved or added parameters for changing this individually, this
patch resets to safer defaults.

davinci_emac: fix kernel oops when changing MAC address while interface is down
Check that network interface is running before changing its MAC address.
Otherwise, rxch is accessed when it's NULL - causing a kernel oops.
Moreover, check that the new MAC address is valid.

The f_dev in _request_firmware() is allocated via the fw_setup_device()
and fw_register_device() calls and its class set to firmware_class (the
class release function is fw_dev_release).
Commit 6acf70f078ca replaced the kfree(dev) in fw_dev_release() with a
put_device() call but my understanding is that the release function is
called via put_device -> kobject_put -> kref_put -> koject_release etc.
and it should call kfree since it's the last to see this device
structure alive.
Because of that, the _request_firmware() function on its -ENOENT error
path only calls device_unregister(f_dev) which would eventually call
fw_dev_release() but there is no kfree (the subsequent put_device call
would just make the kref negative).

Serio ports are not being restarted any longer because resume operations
after hibernate do nothing, since the device has not been marked as
