This patch (as1091) changes the way usbcore handles interface
unbinding. If the interface's driver supports "soft" unbinding (a new
flag in the driver structure) then in-flight URBs are not cancelled
and endpoints are not disabled. Instead the driver is allowed to
continue communicating with the device (although of course it should
stop before its disconnect routine returns).
The purpose of this change is to allow drivers to do a clean shutdown
when they get unbound from a device that is still plugged in. Killing
all the URBs and disabling the endpoints before calling the driver's
disconnect method doesn't give the driver any control over what
happens, and it can leave devices in indeterminate states. For
example, when usb-storage unbinds it doesn't want to stop while in the
middle of transmitting a SCSI command.
The soft_unbind flag is added because in the past, a number of drivers
have experienced problems related to ongoing I/O after their disconnect
routine returned. Hence "soft" unbinding is made available only to
drivers that claim to support it.
The patch also replaces "interface_to_usbdev(intf)" with "udev" in a
couple of places, a minor simplification.

Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but
it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are
still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters
waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime.
This patch:
- reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure,
- makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(),
- makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n),
- makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs,
- extends counters from 32bit to 64bit,
- renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter,
- enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT),
- set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT
- removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling.
If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend.
Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area
to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with
acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

All modifications and most access to the mddev->disks list are made
under the reconfig_mutex lock. However there are three places where
the list is walked without any locking. If a reconfig happens at this
time, havoc (and oops) can ensue.
So use RCU to protect these accesses:
- wrap them in rcu_read_{,un}lock()
- use list_for_each_entry_rcu
- add to the list with list_add_rcu
- delete from the list with list_del_rcu
- delay the 'free' with call_rcu rather than schedule_work
Note that export_rdev did a list_del_init on this list. In almost all
cases the entry was not in the list anymore so it was a no-op and so
safe. It is no longer safe as after list_del_rcu we may not touch
the list_head.
An audit shows that export_rdev is called:
- after unbind_rdev_from_array, in which case the delete has
already been done,
- after bind_rdev_to_array fails, in which case the delete isn't needed.
- before the device has been put on a list at all (e.g. in
add_new_disk where reading the superblock fails).
- and in autorun devices after a failure when the device is on a
different list.
So remove the list_del_init call from export_rdev, and add it back
immediately before the called to export_rdev for that last case.
Note also that ->same_set is sometimes used for lists other than
mddev->list (e.g. candidates). In these cases rcu is not needed.

Serial drivers using DMA (like the atmel_serial driver) tend to get very
confused when the xmit buffer is flushed and nobody told them. They
also tend to spew a lot of garbage since the DMA engine keeps running
after the buffer is flushed and possibly refilled with unrelated data.
This patch adds a new flush_buffer operation to the uart_ops struct,
along with a call to it from uart_flush_buffer() right after the xmit
buffer has been cleared. The driver can implement this in order to
syncronize its internal DMA state with the xmit buffer when the buffer
is flushed.

This patch adds all needed structures to coalesce MMIOs.
Until an architecture uses it, it is not compiled.
Coalesced MMIO introduces two ioctl() to define where are the MMIO zones that
can be coalesced:
- KVM_REGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO registers a coalesced MMIO zone.
It requests one parameter (struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone) which defines
a memory area where MMIOs can be coalesced until the next switch to
user space. The maximum number of MMIO zones is KVM_COALESCED_MMIO_ZONE_MAX.
- KVM_UNREGISTER_COALESCED_MMIO cancels all registered zones inside
the given bounds (bounds are also given by struct kvm_coalesced_mmio_zone).
The userspace client can check kernel coalesced MMIO availability by asking
ioctl(KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION) for the KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO capability.
The ioctl() call to KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO will return 0 if not supported,
or the page offset where will be stored the ring buffer.
The page offset depends on the architecture.
After an ioctl(KVM_RUN), the first page of the KVM memory mapped points to
a kvm_run structure. The offset given by KVM_CAP_COALESCED_MMIO is
an offset to the coalesced MMIO ring expressed in PAGE_SIZE relatively
to the address of the start of th kvm_run structure. The MMIO ring buffer
is defined by the structure kvm_coalesced_mmio_ring.
