ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK has two functions - promote reset to hardreset if
ATA_LFLAG_HRST_TO_RESUME is set and preventing EH from shortcutting
reset action when probing is requested. The former is gone now and
the latter can easily be achieved by making EH to perform at least one
reset if reset is requested, which also makes more sense than
depending on RESUME_LINK flag.
As ATA_EHI_RESUME_LINK was the only EHI reset modifier, this also
kills reset modifier handling.

Now that hardreset is the preferred method of resetting, there's no
need for ATA_LFLAG_HRST_TO_RESUME flag. Kill it.

When both soft and hard resets are available, libata preferred
softreset till now. The logic behind it was to be softer to devices;
however, this doesn't really help much. Rationales for the change:
* BIOS may freeze lock certain things during boot and softreset can't
unlock those. This by itself is okay but during operation PHY event
or other error conditions can trigger hardreset and the device may
end up with different configuration.
For example, after a hardreset, previously unlockable HPA can be
unlocked resulting in different device size and thus revalidation
failure. Similar condition can occur during or after resume.
* Certain ATAPI devices require hardreset to recover after certain
error conditions. On PATA, this is done by issuing the DEVICE RESET
command. On SATA, COMRESET has equivalent effect. The problem is
that DEVICE RESET needs its own execution protocol.
For SFF controllers with bare TF access, it can be easily
implemented but more advanced controllers (e.g. ahci and sata_sil24)
require specialized implementations. Simply using hardreset solves
the problem nicely.
* COMRESET initialization sequence is the norm in SATA land and many
SATA devices don't work properly if only SRST is used. For example,
some PMPs behave this way and libata works around by always issuing
hardreset if the host supports PMP.
Like the above example, libata has developed a number of mechanisms
aiming to promote softreset to hardreset if softreset is not going
to work. This approach is time consuming and error prone.
Also, note that, dependingon how you read the specs, it could be
argued that PMP fan-out ports require COMRESET to start operation.
In fact, all the PMPs on the market except one don't work properly
if COMRESET is not issued to fan-out ports after PMP reset.
* COMRESET is an integral part of SATA connection and any working
device should be able to handle COMRESET properly. After all, it's
the way to signal hardreset during reboot. This is the most used
and recommended (at least by the ahci spec) method of resetting
devices.
So, this patch makes libata prefer hardreset over softreset by making
the following changes.
* Rename ATA_EH_RESET_MASK to ATA_EH_RESET and use it whereever
ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET used to be used. ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET is
now only used to tell prereset whether soft or hard reset will be
issued.
* Strip out now unneeded promote-to-hardreset logics from
ata_eh_reset(), ata_std_prereset(), sata_pmp_std_prereset() and
other places.

mb_cache_entry_alloc() was allocating cache entries with GFP_KERNEL. But
filesystems are calling this function while holding xattr_sem so possible
recursion into the fs violates locking ordering of xattr_sem and transaction
start / i_mutex for ext2-4. Change mb_cache_entry_alloc() so that filesystems
can specify desired gfp mask and use GFP_NOFS from all of them.

This fixes DMA on architectures where DMA is nontrivial, like PPC64.
We must use the host-device's (PCI) struct device for any DMA
operation instead of the SSB device. For this we add a new
struct device pointer to the SSB device structure that will always
point to the right device for DMAing.
Without this patch b43 and b44 drivers won't work on complex-DMA
architectures, that for example need dev->archdata for DMA operations.

struct ipv6_opt_hdr is the common structure for IPv6 extension
headers, and it is common to increment the pointer to get
the real content. On the other hand, since the structure
consists only of 1-byte next-header field and 1-byte length
field, size of that structure depends on architecture; 2 or 4.
Add "packed" attribute to get 2.

git commit 54a015104136974262afa4b8ddd943ea70dec8a2 ("asmlinkage_protect

and some other architectures. The reason is that some architectures add
the "-traditional" flag to the invocation of $(AS), which disables
variadic macro argument support.

Increase the PNP "number of devices" limit. We currently use an unsigned
char, which limits us to 256 devices per protocol. This patch changes that to
an unsigned int.
Not all backends can take advantage of this: we limit ISAPNP to 10 devices in
isapnp_cfg_begin(), and PNPBIOS is limited to 256 devices because the BIOS
interfaces use a one-byte device node number.
But there is no limit on the number of PNPACPI devices we may have. Large HP
Integrity machines have more than 256, which causes the current "unsigned char
number" to wrap around. This causes errors like this:
pnp: PnP ACPI init
kobject_add failed for 00:00 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.

This patch increases the limit to fix this PNPACPI problem. It should not
have any adverse effect on ISAPNP or PNPBIOS because their limits are still
enforced in the backends.

It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully
be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the
low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big
honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros.
I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding
to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his
prettier syntax that uses vararg macros). Thus the previous two commits
that actually implement it.

The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler
clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions
is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs. The tail/sibling-call
optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use
stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent.
Other optimizations can do it too.
Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the
compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all
the manifestations of this issue that crop up.
More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument
variables live at the end of the function. This makes their original
stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler
tends not clobber them for something else. It's still no guarantee, but
it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host
we don't need callbacks now. As it is not reliable, the debug check is
overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time. Document this.
Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable
callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance
protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

The effects of cgroup_disable=foo are:
- foo isn't auto-mounted if you mount all cgroups in a single hierarchy
- foo isn't visible as an individually mountable subsystem
As a result there will only ever be one call to foo->create(), at init time;
all processes will stay in this group, and the group will never be mounted on
a visible hierarchy. Any additional effects (e.g. not allocating metadata)
are up to the foo subsystem.
This doesn't handle early_init subsystems (their "disabled" bit isn't set be,
but it could easily be extended to do so if any of the early_init systems
wanted it - I think it would just involve some nastier parameter processing
since it would occur before the command-line argument parser had been run.
Hugh said:
Ballpark figures, I'm trying to get this question out rather than
processing the exact numbers: CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR adds 15% overhead
to the affected paths, booting with cgroup_disable=memory cuts that back to
1% overhead (due to slightly bigger struct page).
I'm no expert on distros, they may have no interest whatever in
CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR=y; and the rest of us can easily build with or
without it, or apply the cgroup_disable=memory patches.
Unix bench's execl test result on x86_64 was

Took some cycles to re-read the Lguest Journey end-to-end, fix some
rot and tighten some phrases.
Only comments change. No new jokes, but a couple of recycled old jokes.

'video' into release

add_timer_on() can add a timer on a CPU which is currently in a long
idle sleep, but the timer wheel is not reevaluated by the nohz code on
that CPU. So a timer can be delayed for quite a long time. This
triggered a false positive in the clocksource watchdog code.
To avoid this we need to wake up the idle CPU and enforce the
reevaluation of the timer wheel for the next timer event.
Add a function, which checks a given CPU for idle state, marks the
idle task with NEED_RESCHED and sends a reschedule IPI to notify the
other CPU of the change in the timer wheel.
Call this function from add_timer_on().

cpuidle C-state sysfs node time and usage are very easy to overflow because
they are all of unsigned int type, time will overflow within about two hours,
usage will take longer time to overflow, but they are increasing for ever.
This patch will convert them to unsigned long long.

pcie: utilize pcie transaction pending bit
PCIE has a mechanism to wait for Non-Posted request to complete. I think
pci_disable_device is a good place to do this.

Motorola ROKR Z6 cellphone has bugs in its USB, so it is impossible to use
it as mass storage. Patch describes new "unusual" USB device for it with
FIX_INQUIRY and FIX_CAPACITY flags and new BULK_IGNORE_TAG flag.
Last flag relaxes check for equality of bcs->Tag and us->tag in
usb_stor_Bulk_transport routine.

This patch (as1057) fixes a problem with the X-Rite/Gretag-Macbeth
Eye-One Pro display colorimeter; the device crashes when it receives a
Set-Interface request. A new quirk (USB_QUIRK_NO_SET_INTF) is
introduced and a quirks entry is created for this device.
