Merge more incoming from Andrew Morton:
- Various fixes which were stalled or which I picked up recently
- A large rotorooting of the AIO code. Allegedly to improve
performance but I don't really have good performance numbers (I might
have lost the email) and I can't raise Kent today. I held this out
of 3.9 and we could give it another cycle if it's all too late/scary.
I ended up taking only the first two thirds of the AIO rotorooting. I
left the percpu parts and the batch completion for later. - Linus

Thanks to Zach Brown's work to rip out the retry infrastructure, we don't
need this anymore - ki_retry was only called right after the kiocb was
initialized.
This also refactors and trims some duplicated code, as well as cleaning up
the refcounting/error handling a bit.

Previously, allocating a kiocb required touching quite a few global
(well, per kioctx) cachelines... so batching up allocation to amortize
those was worthwhile. But we've gotten rid of some of those, and in
another couple of patches kiocb allocation won't require writing to any
shared cachelines, so that means we can just rip this code out.

Cancelling kiocbs requires adding them to a per kioctx linked list,
which is one of the few things we need to take the kioctx lock for in
the fast path. But most kiocbs can't be cancelled - so if we just do
this lazily, we can avoid quite a bit of locking overhead.
While we're at it, instead of using a flag bit switch to using ki_cancel
itself to indicate that a kiocb has been cancelled/completed. This lets
us get rid of ki_flags entirely.

Analagous to wait_event_timeout() and friends, this adds
wait_event_hrtimeout() and wait_event_interruptible_hrtimeout().
Note that unlike the versions that use regular timers, these don't
return the amount of time remaining when they return - instead, they
return 0 or -ETIME if they timed out. because I was uncomfortable with
the semantics of doing it the other way (that I could get it right,
anyways).
If the timer expires, there's no real guarantee that expire_time -
current_time would be <= 0 - due to timer slack certainly, and I'm not
sure I want to know the implications of the different clock bases in
hrtimers.
If the timer does expire and the code calculates that the time remaining
is nonnegative, that could be even worse if the calling code then reuses
that timeout. Probably safer to just return 0 then, but I could imagine
weird bugs or at least unintended behaviour arising from that too.
I came to the conclusion that if other users end up actually needing the
amount of time remaining, the sanest thing to do would be to create a
version that uses absolute timeouts instead of relative.

Freeing a kiocb needed to touch the kioctx for three things:
* Pull it off the reqs_active list
* Decrementing reqs_active
* Issuing a wakeup, if the kioctx was in the process of being freed.
This patch moves these to aio_complete(), for a couple reasons:
* aio_complete() already has to issue the wakeup, so if we drop the
kioctx refcount before aio_complete does its wakeup we don't have to
do it twice.
* aio_complete currently has to take the kioctx lock, so it makes sense
for it to pull the kiocb off the reqs_active list too.
* A later patch is going to change reqs_active to include unreaped
completions - this will mean allocating a kiocb doesn't have to look
at the ringbuffer. So taking the decrement of reqs_active out of
kiocb_free() is useful prep work for that patch.
This doesn't really affect cancellation, since existing (usb) code that
implements a cancel function still calls aio_complete() - we just have
to make sure that aio_complete does the necessary teardown for cancelled
kiocbs.
It does affect code paths where we free kiocbs that were never
submitted; they need to decrement reqs_active and pull the kiocb off the
reqs_active list. This occurs in two places: kiocb_batch_free(), which
is going away in a later patch, and the error path in io_submit_one.

This removes the retry-based AIO infrastructure now that nothing in tree
is using it.
We want to remove retry-based AIO because it is fundemantally unsafe.
It retries IO submission from a kernel thread that has only assumed the
mm of the submitting task. All other task_struct references in the IO
submission path will see the kernel thread, not the submitting task.
This design flaw means that nothing of any meaningful complexity can use
retry-based AIO.
This removes all the code and data associated with the retry machinery.
The most significant benefit of this is the removal of the locking
around the unused run list in the submission path.

The current kernel returns -EINVAL unless a given mmap length is
"almost" hugepage aligned. This is because in sys_mmap_pgoff() the
given length is passed to vm_mmap_pgoff() as it is without being aligned
with hugepage boundary.
This is a regression introduced in commit 40716e29243d ("hugetlbfs: fix
alignment of huge page requests"), where alignment code is pushed into
hugetlb_file_setup() and the variable len in caller side is not changed.
To fix this, this patch partially reverts that commit, and adds
alignment code in caller side. And it also introduces hstate_sizelog()
in order to get proper hstate to specified hugepage size.

Pull ARM SoC platform updates (part 3) from Arnd Bergmann:
"This is the third and smallest of the SoC specific updates. Changes
include:
- SMP support for the Xilinx zynq platform
- Smaller imx changes
- LPAE support for mvebu
- Moving the orion5x, kirkwood, dove and mvebu platforms to a common
"mbus" driver for their internal devices.
It would be good to get feedback on the location of the "mbus" driver.
Since this is used on multiple platforms may potentially get shared
with other architectures (powerpc and arm64), it was moved to
drivers/bus/. We expect other similar drivers to get moved to the
same place in order to avoid creating more top-level directories under
drivers/ or cluttering up the messy drivers/misc/ even more."

Pull ARM SoC platform updates (part 2) from Arnd Bergmann:
"These patches are all for Renesas shmobile, and depend on the earlier
pinctrl updates. Remarkably, this adds support for three new SoCs:
r8a73a4, r8a73a4 and r8a7778. The bulk of the code added for these is
for pinctrl (using the new subsystem) and for clocks (not yet using
the common clock subsystem). The latter will have to get converted in
one of the upcoming releases, but shmobile is not ready for that yet.
The series also contains Renesas shmobile board changes, adding one
board file for each of the three new SoCs. These boards are using a
mix of classic and device-tree based probing, as there is still a lot
of infrastructure in shmobile that has not been converted to DT yet.
Once those are resolved to the degree that no board specific setup
code is needed, they can get folded into the respective SoC setup files."

Pull 'full dynticks' support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree from Frederic Weisbecker adds a new, (exciting! :-) core
kernel feature to the timer and scheduler subsystems: 'full dynticks',
or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.
This feature extends the nohz variable-size timer tick feature from
idle to busy CPUs (running at most one task) as well, potentially
reducing the number of timer interrupts significantly.
This feature got motivated by real-time folks and the -rt tree, but
the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than
that:
- HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able
to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power. A periodic timer tick at
HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%. This feature
removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on
typical distro configs even on modern systems.
- Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks
should experience as little jitter as possible. The last remaining
source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick.
- A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation,
especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature
helps desktop and mobile workloads as well.
The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer
reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus
slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency.
Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing
two NOHZ kconfig modes:
- CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named
as a config option. This is the traditional Linux periodic tick
design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of
whether a CPU is idle or not.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the
periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the
tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one
timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a
CPU.
The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the
user having to configure anything. CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by
default.
This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been
steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support
and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already.
This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature. The pull
request is marked RFC because:
- it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is
small but did not get ready in time.
- it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge
window. The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the
merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I
marked it RFC.
- it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and
while the components have been in testing for some time, the full
combination is still not very widely used. That it's default-off
should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no
known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either.
- the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100%
equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick. In
particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects
on scheduler load-balancing and statistics. This should not impact
correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this
feature at this point.
- it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be
enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on
its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed.
Without flaming us to crisp! :-)
Future plans:
- there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off
the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a
CPU. We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go
for the 0 Hz target though.
- once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from
nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only
as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do -
once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running.
I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in
v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long -
but the final word is up to you as usual.

contact with the slot pads for long enough to reply to a CMD13
while being removed.

Pull ARM SoC board specific changes (part 1) from Olof Johansson:
"These changes are all for board specific files. These used to make up
a large portion of the ARM changes in the past, but as we are
generalizing the support and moving to device tree probing, this has
gotten significantly smaller.
The only platform actually adding new code here at the moment is
Renesas shmobile, as they are still busy converting their code to
device tree and have not come far enough to not need it."

Pull ARM SoC driver changes from Olof Johansson:
"This is a rather large set of patches for device drivers that for one
reason or another the subsystem maintainer preferred to get merged
through the arm-soc tree. There are both new drivers as well as
existing drivers that are getting converted from platform-specific
code into standalone drivers using the appropriate subsystem specific
interfaces.
In particular, we can now have pinctrl, clk, clksource and irqchip
drivers in one file per driver, without the need to call into platform
specific interface, or to get called from platform specific code, as
long as all information about the hardware is provided through a
device tree.
Most of the drivers we touch this time are for clocksource. Since now
most of them are part of drivers/clocksource, I expect that we won't
have to touch these again from arm-soc and can let the clocksource
maintainers take care of these in the future.
Another larger part of this series is specific to the exynos platform,
which is seeing some significant effort in upstreaming and
modernization of its device drivers this time around, which
unfortunately is also the cause for the churn and a lot of the merge
conflicts.
There is one new subsystem that gets merged as part of this series:
the reset controller interface, which is a very simple interface for
taking devices on the SoC out of reset or back into reset. Patches to
use this interface on i.MX follow later in this merge window, and we
are going to have other platforms (at least tegra and sirf) get
converted in 3.11. This will let us get rid of platform specific
callbacks in a number of platform independent device drivers."

When BSD process accounting is enabled and logs information to a
filesystem which gets frozen, system easily becomes unusable because
each attempt to account process information blocks. Thus e.g. every task
gets blocked in exit.
It seems better to drop accounting information (which can already happen
when filesystem is running out of space) instead of locking system up.
So we just skip the write if the filesystem is frozen.

The scheduler doesn't yet fully support environments
with a single task running without a periodic tick.
In order to ensure we still maintain the duties of scheduler_tick(),
keep at least 1 tick per second.
This makes sure that we keep the progression of various scheduler
accounting and background maintainance even with a very low granularity.
Examples include cpu load, sched average, CFS entity vruntime,
avenrun and events such as load balancing, amongst other details
handled in sched_class::task_tick().
This limitation will be removed in the future once we get
these individual items to work in full dynticks CPUs.

Pull nfsd changes from J Bruce Fields:
"Highlights include:
- Some more DRC cleanup and performance work from Jeff Layton
- A gss-proxy upcall from Simo Sorce: currently krb5 mounts to the
server using credentials from Active Directory often fail due to
limitations of the svcgssd upcall interface. This replacement
lifts those limitations. The existing upcall is still supported
for backwards compatibility.
- More NFSv4.1 support: at this point, if a user with a current
client who upgrades from 4.0 to 4.1 should see no regressions. In
theory we do everything a 4.1 server is required to do. Patches
for a couple minor exceptions are ready for 3.11, and with those
and some more testing I'd like to turn 4.1 on by default in 3.11."
Fix up semantic conflict as per Stephen Rothwell and linux-next:
Commit 030d794bf498 ("SUNRPC: Use gssproxy upcall for server RPCGSS
authentication") adds two new users of "PDE(inode)->data", but we're
supposed to use "PDE_DATA(inode)" instead since commit d9dda78bad87
("procfs: new helper - PDE_DATA(inode)").
The old PDE() macro is no longer available since commit c30480b92cf4
("proc: Make the PROC_I() and PDE() macros internal to procfs")
