Pull MTD fixes from Brian Norris:
"Three main MTD fixes for 3.18:
- A regression from 3.16 which was noticed in 3.17. With the
restructuring of the m25p80.c driver and the SPI NOR library
framework, we omitted proper listing of the SPI device IDs. This
means m25p80.c wouldn't auto-load (modprobe) properly when built as
a module. For now, we duplicate the device IDs into both modules.
- The OMAP / ELM modules were depending on an implicit link ordering.
Use deferred probing so that the new link order (in 3.18-rc) can
still allow for successful probing.
- Fix suspend/resume support for LH28F640BF NOR flash"

"A bit has accumulated, but it's been a week or so since my last batch
of post-merge-window fixes, so...
1) Missing module license in netfilter reject module, from Pablo.
Lots of people ran into this.
2) Off by one in mac80211 baserate calculation, from Karl Beldan.
3) Fix incorrect return value from ax88179_178a driver's set_mac_addr

4) Checking of skb_gso_segment()'s return value was not all
encompassing, it can return an SKB pointer, a pointer error, or
NULL. Fix from Florian Westphal.
This is crummy, and longer term will be fixed to just return error
pointers or a real SKB.
6) Encapsulation offloads not being handled by
skb_gso_transport_seglen(). From Florian Westphal.
7) Fix deadlock in TIPC stack, from Ying Xue.
8) Fix performance regression from using rhashtable for netlink
sockets. The problem was the synchronize_net() invoked for every
socket destroy. From Thomas Graf.
9) Fix bug in eBPF verifier, and remove the strong dependency of BPF
on NET. From Alexei Starovoitov.
10) In qdisc_create(), use the correct interface to allocate

initialized properly. From Sabrina Dubroca.
11) Off by one in ip_set_nfnl_get_byindex(), from Dan Carpenter.
12) nf_tables_newchain() was erroneously expecting error pointers from
netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats(). It only returna a valid pointer or
NULL. From Sabrina Dubroca.
13) Fix use-after-free in _decode_session6(), from Li RongQing.
14) When we set the TX flow hash on a socket, we mistakenly do so
before we've nailed down the final source port. Move the setting
deeper to fix this. From Sathya Perla.
15) NAPI budget accounting in amd-xgbe driver was counting descriptors
instead of full packets, fix from Thomas Lendacky.
16) Fix total_data_buflen calculation in hyperv driver, from Haiyang
Zhang.
17) Fix bcma driver build with OF_ADDRESS disabled, from Hauke
Mehrtens.
18) Fix mis-use of per-cpu memory in TCP md5 code. The problem is
that something that ends up being vmalloc memory can't be passed
to the crypto hash routines via scatter-gather lists. From Eric
Dumazet.
19) Fix regression in promiscuous mode enabling in cdc-ether, from
Olivier Blin.
20) Bucket eviction and frag entry killing can race with eachother,
causing an unlink of the object from the wrong list. Fix from
Nikolay Aleksandrov.
21) Missing initialization of spinlock in cxgb4 driver, from Anish
Bhatt.

====================
netfilter/ipvs fixes for net
The following patchset contains fixes for netfilter/ipvs. This round of
fixes is larger than usual at this stage, specifically because of the
nf_tables bridge reject fixes that I would like to see in 3.18. The
patches are:
1) Fix a null-pointer dereference that may occur when logging
errors. This problem was introduced by 4a4739d56b0 ("ipvs: Pull
out crosses_local_route_boundary logic") in v3.17-rc5.
2) Update hook mask in nft_reject_bridge so we can also filter out
packets from there. This fixes 36d2af5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow
to filter from prerouting and postrouting"), which needs this chunk
to work.
3) Two patches to refactor common code to forge the IPv4 and IPv6
reject packets from the bridge. These are required by the nf_tables
reject bridge fix.
4) Fix nft_reject_bridge by avoiding the use of the IP stack to reject
packets from the bridge. The idea is to forge the reject packets and
inject them to the original port via br_deliver() which is now
exported for that purpose.
5) Restrict nft_reject_bridge to bridge prerouting and input hooks.
the original skbuff may cloned after prerouting when the bridge stack
needs to flood it to several bridge ports, it is too late to reject
the traffic.

packet. The new functions are:
* nf_reject_ip6_tcphdr_get(): to sanitize and to obtain the TCP header.

* nf_reject_ip6_tcphdr_put(): to build the TCP header.

Changes to the basic direct I/O code have broken the raw driver when reading
to the end of a raw device. Instead of returning a short read for a read that
extends partially beyond the device's end or 0 when at the end of the device,
these reads now return EIO.
The raw driver needs the same end of device handling as was added for normal
block devices. Using blkdev_read_iter, which has the needed size checks,
prevents the EIO conditions at the end of the device.

Pull two RCU fixes from Paul E. McKenney:
" - Complete the work of commit dd56af42bd82 (rcu: Eliminate deadlock

intended to allow synchronize_sched_expedited() to be safely
used when holding locks acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers.
This commit makes the put_online_cpus() avoid the deadlock
instead of just handling the get_online_cpus().
- Complete the work of commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo
kthreads only for onlined CPUs), which was intended to allow
RCU to avoid allocating unneeded kthreads on systems where the
firmware says that there are more CPUs than are really present.
This commit makes rcu_barrier() aware of the mismatch, so that
it doesn't hang waiting for non-existent CPUs. "

Commit 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") changed
page migration to uncharge the old page right away. The page is locked,
unmapped, truncated, and off the LRU, but it could race with writeback
ending, which then doesn't unaccount the page properly:
test_clear_page_writeback() migration
wait_on_page_writeback()
TestClearPageWriteback()
mem_cgroup_migrate()
clear PCG_USED
mem_cgroup_update_page_stat()
if (PageCgroupUsed(pc))
decrease memcg pages under writeback
release pc->mem_cgroup->move_lock
The per-page statistics interface is heavily optimized to avoid a
function call and a lookup_page_cgroup() in the file unmap fast path,
which means it doesn't verify whether a page is still charged before
clearing PageWriteback() and it has to do it in the stat update later.
Rework it so that it looks up the page's memcg once at the beginning of
the transaction and then uses it throughout. The charge will be
verified before clearing PageWriteback() and migration can't uncharge
the page as long as that is still set. The RCU lock will protect the
memcg past uncharge.
As far as losing the optimization goes, the following test results are
from a microbenchmark that maps, faults, and unmaps a 4GB sparse file
three times in a nested fashion, so that there are two negative passes
that don't account but still go through the new transaction overhead.
There is no actual difference:
old: 33.195102545 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.01% )
new: 33.199231369 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.03% )
The time spent in page_remove_rmap()'s callees still adds up to the
same, but the time spent in the function itself seems reduced:
# Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol
old: 0.12% 0.11% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap
new: 0.12% 0.08% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap

If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
collapse this memory into thp memory.
This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags
until the final action of madvise_behavior(). This causes the
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.
Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
handler. There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem.
It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags
in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
behavior into madvise_behavior(). I think it's best to just let it
always set vma->vm_flags itself.

Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs)
avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This
fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their
age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have.
Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless
rcuo kthreads being created.
It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the
people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but
I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing
piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to
post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because
otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies
about the number of CPUs.
It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on
any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately
does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending
callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks
that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system.
Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an
rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error
in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at
boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU
before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal
to invoke rcu_barrier().
So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to
CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it
complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some
pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo
kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but
to hang indefinitely.

The bug referenced by the comment in this commit was not
completely fixed in GCC 4.8.2, as I mentioned in a thread back
in February:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/12/797
The conclusion at that time was to make the quirk unconditional
until the bug could be found and fixed in GCC. Unfortunately,
when I submitted the patch (commit a9f18034) I left a comment
in that claimed the bug was fixed in GCC 4.8.2+.
This comment is inaccurate, and should be removed.

usually had for the _whole_ rc period.
There are a few bad bugs where the guest can OOPS or crash the host.
We have also started looking at attack models for nested
virtualization; bugs that usually result in the guest ring 0 crashing
itself become more worrisome if you have nested virtualization,
because the nested guest might bring down the non-nested guest as
well. For current uses of nested virtualization these do not really
have a security impact, but you never know and bugs are bugs
nevertheless.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This is material that didn't make it to my 3.18-rc1 pull request for
various reasons, mostly related to timing and travel (LinuxCon EU /
LPC) plus a couple of fixes for recent bugs.
The only really new thing here is the PM QoS class for memory
bandwidth, but it is simple enough and users of it will be added in
the next cycle. One major change in behavior is that platform devices
enumerated by ACPI will use 32-bit DMA mask by default. Also included
is an ACPICA update to a new upstream release, but that's mostly
cleanups, changes in tools and similar. The rest is fixes and
cleanups mostly.
Specifics:
- Fix for a recent PCI power management change that overlooked the
fact that some IRQ chips might not be able to configure PCIe PME
for system wakeup from Lucas Stach.
- Fix for a bug introduced in 3.17 where acpi_device_wakeup() is
called with a wrong ordering of arguments from Zhang Rui.
- A bunch of intel_pstate driver fixes (all -stable candidates) from
Dirk Brandewie, Gabriele Mazzotta and Pali Rohár.
- Fixes for a rather long-standing problem with the OOM killer and
the freezer that frozen processes killed by the OOM do not actually
release any memory until they are thawed, so OOM-killing them is
rather pointless, with a couple of cleanups on top (Michal Hocko,
Cong Wang, Rafael J Wysocki).
- ACPICA update to upstream release 20140926, inlcuding mostly
cleanups reducing differences between the upstream ACPICA and the
kernel code, tools changes (acpidump, acpiexec) and support for the
_DDN object (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).
- New PM QoS class for memory bandwidth from Tomeu Vizoso.
- Default 32-bit DMA mask for platform devices enumerated by ACPI
(this change is mostly needed for some drivers development in
progress targeted at 3.19) from Heikki Krogerus.
- ACPI EC driver cleanups, mostly related to debugging, from Lv
Zheng.

in linux-next tree for a few days. Now the buggy patch has been
dropped entirely from my next branch. Thus I hope those changes can
still be merged in 3.18-rc2 as most of them are platform thermal

- introduce ACPI INT340X thermal drivers.
Newer laptops and tablets may have thermal sensors and other

OS to use via the ACPI INT340x device objects. Several drivers are
introduced to expose the temperature information and cooling
ability from these objects to user-space via the normal thermal
framework.
From: Lu Aaron, Lan Tianyu, Jacob Pan and Zhang Rui.
- introduce a new thermal governor, which just uses a hysteresis to
switch abruptly on/off a cooling device. This governor can be used
to control certain fan devices that can not be throttled but just
switched on or off. From: Peter Feuerer.
- introduce support for some new thermal interrupt functions on

Add a simple read-only counter to super_block that indicates how deep this
is in the stack of filesystems. Previously ecryptfs was the only stackable
filesystem and it explicitly disallowed multiple layers of itself.
Overlayfs, however, can be stacked recursively and also may be stacked
on top of ecryptfs or vice versa.
To limit the kernel stack usage we must limit the depth of the
filesystem stack. Initially the limit is set to 2.

Whiteout isn't actually a new file type, but is represented as a char
device (Linus's idea) with 0/0 device number.
This has several advantages compared to introducing a new whiteout file
type:
- no userspace API changes (e.g. trivial to make backups of upper layer
filesystem, without losing whiteouts)
- no fs image format changes (you can boot an old kernel/fsck without
whiteout support and things won't break)
- implementation is trivial
