linux/compiler.h has macros to denote functions that acquire or release
locks, but not to denote functions called with a lock held that return
with the lock still held. Add a __must_hold macro to cover that case.

To avoid an explosion of request_module calls on a chain of abusive
scripts, fail maximum recursion with -ELOOP instead of -ENOEXEC. As soon
as maximum recursion depth is hit, the error will fail all the way back
up the chain, aborting immediately.
This also has the side-effect of stopping the user's shell from attempting
to reexecute the top-level file as a shell script. As seen in the
dash source:
if (cmd != path_bshell && errno == ENOEXEC) {
*argv-- = cmd;
*argv = cmd = path_bshell;
goto repeat;
}
The above logic was designed for running scripts automatically that lacked
the "#!" header, not to re-try failed recursion. On a legitimate -ENOEXEC,
things continue to behave as the shell expects.
Additionally, when tracking recursion, the binfmt handlers should not be
involved. The recursion being tracked is the depth of calls through
search_binary_handler(), so that function should be exclusively responsible
for tracking the depth.

Ptrace jailers want to be sure that the tracee can never escape
from the control. However if the tracer dies unexpectedly the
tracee continues to run in potentially unsafe mode.
Add the new ptrace option PTRACE_O_EXITKILL. If the tracer exits
it sends SIGKILL to every tracee which has this bit set.
Note that the new option is not equal to the last-option << 1. Because
currently all options have an event, and the new one starts the eventless
group. It uses the random 20 bit, so we have the room for 12 more events,
but we can also add the new eventless options below this one.

This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support.
The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do
the u32->int sign extension.
The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is
to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched
function declarations.

Add lockdep annotations. Not only this can help to find the potential
problems, we do not want the false warnings if, say, the task takes two
different percpu_rw_semaphore's for reading. IOW, at least ->rw_sem
should not use a single class.
This patch exposes this internal lock to lockdep so that it represents the
whole percpu_rw_semaphore. This way we do not need to add another "fake"
->lockdep_map and lock_class_key. More importantly, this also makes the
output from lockdep much more understandable if it finds the problem.
In short, with this patch from lockdep pov percpu_down_read() and
percpu_up_read() acquire/release ->rw_sem for reading, this matches the
actual semantics. This abuses __up_read() but I hope this is fine and in
fact I'd like to have down_read_no_lockdep() as well,
percpu_down_read_recursive_readers() will need it.

percpu_rw_semaphore->writer_mutex was only added to simplify the initial
rewrite, the only thing it protects is clear_fast_ctr() which otherwise
could be called by multiple writers. ->rw_sem is enough to serialize the
writers.
Kill this mutex and add "atomic_t write_ctr" instead. The writers
increment/decrement this counter, the readers check it is zero instead of
mutex_is_locked().
Move atomic_add(clear_fast_ctr(), slow_read_ctr) under down_write() to
avoid the race with other writers. This is a bit sub-optimal, only the
first writer needs this and we do not need to exclude the readers at this
stage. But this is simple, we do not want another internal lock until we
add more features.
And this speeds up the write-contended case. Before this patch the racing
writers sleep in synchronize_sched_expedited() sequentially, with this
patch multiple synchronize_sched_expedited's can "overlap" with each
other. Note: we can do more optimizations, this is only the first step.

Currently the writer does msleep() plus synchronize_sched() 3 times to
acquire/release the semaphore, and during this time the readers are
blocked completely. Even if the "write" section was not actually started
or if it was already finished.
With this patch down_write/up_write does synchronize_sched() twice and
down_read/up_read are still possible during this time, just they use the
slow path.
percpu_down_write() first forces the readers to use rw_semaphore and
increment the "slow" counter to take the lock for reading, then it
takes that rw_semaphore for writing and blocks the readers.
Also. With this patch the code relies on the documented behaviour of
synchronize_sched(), it doesn't try to pair synchronize_sched() with
barrier.

The LP855x family devices support the PWM input for the backlight control.
Period of the PWM is configurable in the platform side. Platform
specific functions are unnecessary anymore because generic PWM functions
are used inside the driver.
(PWM input mode)
To set the brightness, new lp855x_pwm_ctrl() is used.
If a PWM device is not allocated, devm_pwm_get() is called.
The PWM consumer name is from the chip name such as 'lp8550' and 'lp8556'.
To get the brightness value, no additional handling is required.
Just the value of 'props.brightness' is returned.
If the PWM driver is not ready while initializing the LP855x driver, it's
OK. The PWM device can be retrieved later, when the brightness value is
changed.
Documentation is updated with an example.

Currently the __define_initcall() macro takes three arguments, fn, id and
level. The level argument is exactly the same as the id argument but
wrapped in quotes. To overcome this need to specify three arguments to
the __define_initcall macro, where one argument is the stringification of
another, we can just use the stringification macro instead.

Pull Automatic NUMA Balancing bare-bones from Mel Gorman:
"There are three implementations for NUMA balancing, this tree
(balancenuma), numacore which has been developed in tip/master and
autonuma which is in aa.git.
In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because
its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about
scheduling. In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be
desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building
scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9.
The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are
mel: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108
mingo: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331
tglx: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437
srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397
The results are a mixed bag. In my own tests, balancenuma does
reasonably well. It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against
mainline. On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is
incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad
but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts. Thomas'
results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of
numacore or autonuma. Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a
large machine with imbalanced node sizes.
My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved
dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally.
We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of
migration even when it shows that overall performance is better.
There are also cases where it regresses. Of interest is that for
specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of
warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by
the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports. Recently I
reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with
NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of
this problem is. Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch
handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case. It's possible
numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration.
These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start
with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has
not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks."

A few leftover fixes for 3.8:
- VIC support for hdmi infoframes with the associated drm helper, fixes
some black TVs (Paulo Zanoni)
- Modeset state check (and fixup if the BIOS messed with the hw) for
lid-open. modeset-rework fallout. Somehow the original reporter went
awol, so this stalled for way too long until we've found a new
victim^Wreporter with broken BIOS.
- seqno wrap fixes from Mika and Chris.
- Some minor fixes all over from various people.
- Another race fix in the pageflip vs. unpin code from Chris.
- hsw vga resume support and a few more fdi link fixes (only used for vga
on hsw) from Paulo.
- Regression fix for DMAR from Zhenyu Wang - I've scavenged memory from my
DMAR for a while and it broke right away :(
- Regression fix from Takashi Iwai for ivb lvds - some w/a needs to be
(partially) moved back into place. Note that these are regressions in

This reverts commit bd52276fa1d4 ("x86-64/efi: Use EFI to deal with
platform wall clock (again)"), and the two supporting commits:
da5a108d05b4: "x86/kernel: remove tboot 1:1 page table creation code"
185034e72d59: "x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable mapping for virtual EFI calls")
as they all depend semantically on commit 53b87cf088e2 ("x86, mm:
Include the entire kernel memory map in trampoline_pgd") that got
reverted earlier due to the problems it caused.
This was pointed out by Yinghai Lu, and verified by me on my Macbook Air
that uses EFI.

Pull target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"It has been a very busy development cycle this time around in target
land, with the highlights including:
- Kill struct se_subsystem_dev, in favor of direct se_device usage
(hch)
- Simplify reservations code by combining SPC-3 + SCSI-2 support for
virtual backends only (hch)
- Simplify ALUA code for virtual only backends, and remove left over
abstractions (hch)
- Pass sense_reason_t as return value for I/O submission path (hch)
- Refactor MODE_SENSE emulation to allow for easier addition of new
mode pages. (roland)
- Add emulation of MODE_SELECT (roland)
- Fix bug in handling of ExpStatSN wrap-around (steve)
- Fix bug in TMR ABORT_TASK lookup in qla2xxx target (steve)
- Add WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=0 support for IBLOCK backends (nab)
- Convert ib_srpt to use modern target_submit_cmd caller + drop
legacy ioctx->kref usage (nab)
- Convert ib_srpt to use modern target_submit_tmr caller (nab)
- Add link_magic for fabric allow_link destination target_items for
symlinks within target_core_fabric_configfs.c code (nab)
- Allocate pointers in instead of full structs for
config_group->default_groups (sebastian)
- Fix 32-bit highmem breakage for FILEIO (sebastian)
All told, hch was able to shave off another ~1K LOC by killing the
se_subsystem_dev abstraction, along with a number of PR + ALUA
simplifications. Also, a nice patch by Roland is the refactoring of
MODE_SENSE handling, along with the addition of initial MODE_SELECT
emulation support for virtual backends.
Sebastian found a long-standing issue wrt to allocation of full
config_group instead of pointers for config_group->default_group[]
setup in a number of areas, which ends up saving memory with big
configurations. He also managed to fix another long-standing BUG wrt
to broken 32-bit highmem support within the FILEIO backend driver.
Thank you again to everyone who contributed this round!"

"This is a patchset which didn't make the last merge window. It adds a
debugging capability to feed ACPI tables via the initramfs.
On a grander scope, it formalizes using the initramfs protocol for
feeding arbitrary blobs which need to be accessed early to the kernel:
they are fed first in the initramfs blob (lots of bootloaders can
concatenate this at boot time, others can use a single file) in an
uncompressed cpio archive using filenames starting with "kernel/".
The ACPI maintainers requested that this patchset be fed via the x86

FIMC is stand for Fully Interfactive Mobile Camera and
supports image scaler/rotator/crop/flip/csc and input/output DMA operations
and also supports writeback and display output operations.
This driver is registered to IPP subsystem framework to be used by user side
and user can control the FIMC hardware through some interfaces of IPP subsystem
framework.
Changelog v6:
- fix build warning.
Changelog v1 ~ v5:
- add comments, code fixups and cleanups.

This patch adds Image Post Processing(IPP) support for exynos drm driver.
IPP supports image scaler/rotator and input/output DMA operations
using IPP subsystem framework to control FIMC, Rotator and GSC hardware
and supports some user interfaces for user side.
And each IPP-based drivers support Memory to Memory operations
with various converting. And in case of FIMC hardware, it also supports
Writeback and Display output operations through local path.
Features:
- Memory to Memory operation support.
- Various pixel formats support.
- Image scaling support.
- Color Space Conversion support.
- Image crop operation support.
- Rotate operation support to 90, 180 or 270 degree.
- Flip operation support to vertical, horizontal or both.
- Writeback operation support to display blended image of FIMD fifo on screen
A summary to IPP Subsystem operations:
First of all, user should get property capabilities from IPP subsystem
and set these properties to hardware registers for desired operations.
The properties could be pixel format, position, rotation degree and
flip operation.
And next, user should set source and destination buffer data using
DRM_EXYNOS_IPP_QUEUE_BUF ioctl command with gem handles to source and
destinition buffers.
And next, user can control user-desired hardware with desired operations
such as play, stop, pause and resume controls.
And finally, user can aware of dma operation completion and also get
destination buffer that it contains user-desried result through dequeue
command.
IOCTL commands:
- DRM_EXYNOS_IPP_GET_PROPERTY
. get ipp driver capabilitis and id.
- DRM_EXYNOS_IPP_SET_PROPERTY
. set format, position, rotation, flip to source and destination buffers
- DRM_EXYNOS_IPP_QUEUE_BUF
. enqueue/dequeue buffer and make event list.
- DRM_EXYNOS_IPP_CMD_CTRL
. play/stop/pause/resume control.
Event:
- DRM_EXYNOS_IPP_EVENT
. a event to notify dma operation completion to user side.
Basic control flow:
Open -> Get properties -> User choose desired IPP sub driver(FIMC, Rotator
or GSCALER) -> Set Property -> Create gem handle -> Enqueue to source and
destination buffers -> Command control(Play) -> Event is notified to User
-> User gets destinition buffer complated -> (Enqueue to source and
destination buffers -> Event is notified to User) * N -> Queue/Dequeue to
source and destination buffers -> Command control(Stop) -> Free gem handle
-> Close
Changelog v1 ~ v5:
- added comments, code fixups and cleanups.

This enables the functionality added in the previous
patches. Userspace acceleration drivers can use the
CS ioctl to submit command buffers to the async DMA
rings.

Please suspend this patch because I just received two new
DevSlp drives but found word 78 bit 5 is _not_ set.
I'm checking with the drive vendor whether he gave me
the wrong information. If bit 5 is not the necessary and
sufficient condition, I will implement another patch to
replace ata_device->sata_settings into ->devslp_timing.
