Pull core debug changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Currently there are two methods to set the panic_timeout: via
'panic=X' boot commandline option, or via /proc/sys/kernel/panic.
This tree adds a third panic_timeout configuration method:
configuration via Kconfig, via CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT=X - useful to
distros that generally want their kernel defaults to come with the
.config.
CONFIG_PANIC_TIMEOUT defaults to 0, which was the previous default
value of panic_timeout.
Doing that unearthed a few arch trickeries regarding arch-special
panic_timeout values and related complications - hopefully all
resolved to the satisfaction of everyone"

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
1) The value choosen for the new SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option on
parisc was very poorly choosen, let's fix it while we still can.
From Eric Dumazet.
2) Our generic reciprocal divide was found to handle some edge cases
incorrectly, part of this is encoded into the BPF as deep as the JIT
engines themselves. Just use a real divide throughout for now.
From Eric Dumazet.
3) Because the initial lookup is lockless, the TCP metrics engine can
end up creating two entries for the same lookup key. Fix this by
doing a second lookup under the lock before we actually create the
new entry. From Christoph Paasch.
4) Fix scatter-gather list init in usbnet driver, from Bjørn Mork.
5) Fix unintended 32-bit truncation in cxgb4 driver's bit shifting.

6) Netlink socket dumping uses the wrong socket state for timewait
sockets. Fix from Neal Cardwell.
7) Fix netlink memory leak in ieee802154_add_iface(), from Christian
Engelmayer.
8) Multicast forwarding in ipv4 can overflow the per-rule reference
counts, causing all multicast traffic to cease. Fix from Hannes
Frederic Sowa.
9) via-rhine needs to stop all TX queues when it resets the device,
from Richard Weinberger.

In commit 1ec047eb4751e3 ("ipv6: introduce per-interface counter for
dad-completed ipv6 addresses") I build the detection of the first
operational link-local address much to complex. Additionally this code
now has a race condition.
Replace it with a much simpler variant, which just scans the address
list when duplicate address detection completes, to check if this is
the first valid link local address and send RS and MLD reports then.

The body of i2c_parent_is_i2c_adapter() is currently guarded by
I2C_MUX. It should be CONFIG_I2C_MUX instead.
Among potentially other problems, this resulted in i2c_lock_adapter()
only locking I2C mux child adapters, and not the parent adapter. In
turn, this could allow inter-mingling of mux child selection and I2C
transactions, which could result in I2C transactions being directed to
the wrong I2C bus, and possibly even switching between busses in the
middle of a transaction.
One concrete issue caused by this bug was corrupted HDMI EDID reads
during boot on the NVIDIA Tegra Seaboard system, although this only
became apparent in recent linux-next, when the boot timing was changed
just enough to trigger the race condition.

A number of situations currently require the heavyweight smp_mb(),
even though there is no need to order prior stores against later
loads. Many architectures have much cheaper ways to handle these
situations, but the Linux kernel currently has no portable way
to make use of them.
This commit therefore supplies smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() to remedy this situation. The new
smp_load_acquire() primitive orders the specified load against
any subsequent reads or writes, while the new smp_store_release()
primitive orders the specifed store against any prior reads or
writes. These primitives allow array-based circular FIFOs to be
implemented without an smp_mb(), and also allow a theoretical
hole in rcu_assign_pointer() to be closed at no additional
expense on most architectures.
In addition, the RCU experience transitioning from explicit
smp_read_barrier_depends() and smp_wmb() to rcu_dereference()
and rcu_assign_pointer(), respectively resulted in substantial
improvements in readability. It therefore seems likely that
replacing other explicit barriers with smp_load_acquire() and
smp_store_release() will provide similar benefits. It appears
that roughly half of the explicit barriers in core kernel code
might be so replaced.

We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
asm-generic/barrier.h.
Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.
There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.

Linus disliked the _no_lockdep() naming, so instead
use the more-consistent raw_* prefix to the non-lockdep
enabled seqcount methods.
This also adds raw_ methods for the write operations
as well, which will be utilized in a following patch.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:
- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
when tso is disabled for lower device.
Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.
With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.
In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

Pull ACPI and PM fixes and new device IDs from Rafael Wysocki:
"These commits, except for one, are regression fixes and the remaining
one fixes a divide error leading to a kernel panic. The majority of
the regressions fixed here were introduced during the 3.12 cycle, one
of them is from this cycle and one is older.
Specifics:
- VGA switcheroo was broken for some users as a result of the
ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) changes in 3.12, because some
previously ignored hotplug events started to be handled. The fix
causes them to be ignored again.
- There are two more issues related to cpufreq's suspend/resume
handling changes from the 3.12 cycle addressed by Viresh Kumar's
fixes.
- intel_pstate triggers a divide error in a timer function if the
P-state information it needs is missing during initialization.
This leads to kernel panics on nested KVM clients and is fixed by
failing the initialization cleanly in those cases.
- PCI initalization code changes during the 3.9 cycle uncovered BIOS
issues related to ACPI wakeup notifications (some BIOSes send them
for devices that aren't supposed to support ACPI wakeup). Work
around them by installing an ACPI wakeup notify handler for all PCI
devices with ACPI support.
- The Calxeda cpuilde driver's probe function is tagged as __init,
which is incorrect and causes a section mismatch to occur during
build. Fix from Andre Przywara removes the __init tag from there.
- During the 3.12 cycle ACPIPHP started to print warnings about
missing _ADR for devices that legitimately don't have it. Fix from
Toshi Kani makes it only print the warnings where they make sense"

VM to VM GSO traffic is broken if it goes through VXLAN or GRE
tunnel and the physical NIC on the host supports hardware VXLAN/GRE
GSO offload (e.g. bnx2x and next-gen mlx4).
Two issues -
(VXLAN) VM traffic has SKB_GSO_DODGY and SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL with
SKB_GSO_TCP/UDP set depending on the inner protocol. GSO header
integrity check fails in udp4_ufo_fragment if inner protocol is
TCP. Also gso_segs is calculated incorrectly using skb->len that
includes tunnel header. Fix: robust check should only be applied
to the inner packet.
(VXLAN & GRE) Once GSO header integrity check passes, NULL segs
is returned and the original skb is sent to hardware. However the
tunnel header is already pulled. Fix: tunnel header needs to be
restored so that hardware can perform GSO properly on the original
packet.

The SCTP outqueue structure maintains a data chunks
that are pending transmission, the list of chunks that
are pending a retransmission and a length of data in
flight. It also tries to keep the emtpy state so that
it can performe shutdown sequence or notify user.
The problem is that the empy state is inconsistently
tracked. It is possible to completely drain the queue
without sending anything when using PR-SCTP. In this
case, the empty state will not be correctly state as
report by Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>. This
can cause an association to be perminantly stuck in the
SHUTDOWN_PENDING state.
Additionally, SCTP is incredibly inefficient when setting
the empty state. Even though all the data is availaible
in the outqueue structure, we ignore it and walk a list
of trasnports.
In the end, we can completely remove the extra empty
state and figure out if the queue is empty by looking
at 3 things: length of pending data, length of in-flight
data, and exisiting of retransmit data. All of these
are already in the strucutre.

Function llc_conn_ac_inc_vr_by_1() evaluates via macro
PDU_GET_NEXT_Vr() into ...
llc_sk(sk)->vR = ++llc_sk(sk)->vR & 0xffffffffffffff7f
... but the order in which the side effects take place is
undefined because there is no intervening sequence point.
As llc_sk(sk)->vR is written in llc_sk(sk)->vR (assignment
left-hand side) and written in ++llc_sk(sk)->vR & 0xffffffffffffff7f
this might possibly yield undefined behavior.
The final value of llc_sk(sk)->vR is ambiguous, because,
depending on the order of expression evaluation, the
increment may occur before, after, or interleaved with
the assignment. In C, evaluating such an expression yields
undefined behavior.
Since we're doing the increment via PDU_GET_NEXT_Vr() macro
and the only place it is being used is from
llc_conn_ac_inc_vr_by_1(), in order to increment vR by 1
with a follow-up optimized modulo, rewrite the expression
into ((vR + 1) & CONST) in order to fix this.

When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads
in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to
be invoked directly.
But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's
header_ops up to the VLAN device.
This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops
routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but
will see a VLAN device instead.
Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange
to pass the proper real device instead.
To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header(). There are
implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a
->rebuild (f.e. PLIP). So we need a helper function just like
dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes.
Use this helper in the one existing place where the
header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code.
With lots of help from Florian Westphal.

The changes in the ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem made
during the 3.12 development cycle uncovered a problem with VGA
switcheroo that on some systems, when the device-specific method
(ATPX in the radeon case, _DSM in the nouveau case) is used to turn
off the discrete graphics, the BIOS generates ACPI hotplug events for
that device and those events cause ACPIPHP to attempt to remove the
device from the system (they are events for a device that was present
previously and is not present any more, so that's what should be done
according to the spec). Then, the system stops functioning correctly.
Since the hotplug events in question were simply silently ignored
previously, the least intrusive way to address that problem is to
make ACPIPHP ignore them again. For this purpose, introduce a new
ACPI device flag, no_hotplug, and modify ACPIPHP to ignore hotplug
events for PCI devices whose ACPI companions have that flag set.
Next, make the radeon and nouveau switcheroo detection code set the
no_hotplug flag for the discrete graphics' ACPI companion.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Some holiday bug fixes for 3.13... There is still one bug I'd like to
get fixed before 3.13-final.
The vlan code erroneously assignes the header ops of the underlying
real device to the VLAN device above it when the real device can
hardware offload VLAN handling. That's completely bogus because
header ops are tied to the device type, so they only expect to see a
'dev' argument compatible with their ops.
The fix is the have the VLAN code use a special set of header ops that
does the pass-thru correctly, by calling the underlying real device's
header ops but _also_ passing in the real device instead of the VLAN
device.
That fix is currently waiting some testing.

nothing to do with libata but it's just an workaround which is easy to

really need kernel freezables - both kthread and workqueue. There are
few specific workqueues which constitute PM operations and require
freezing, which will be converted to use workqueue_set_max_active()
instead. All other kernel freezer uses are planned to be removed,
followed by the removal of kthread and workqueue freezer support,
hopefully.

The arbitrary restriction on page counts offered by the core
migrate_page_move_mapping() code results in rather suspicious looking
fiddling with page reference counts in the aio_migratepage() operation.
To fix this, make migrate_page_move_mapping() take an extra_count parameter
that allows aio to tell the code about its own reference count on the page
being migrated.
While cleaning up aio_migratepage(), make it validate that the old page
being passed in is actually what aio_migratepage() expects to prevent
misbehaviour in the case of races.

Sasha Levin found a NULL pointer dereference that is due to a missing
page table lock, which in turn is due to the pmd entry in question being
a transparent huge-table entry.
The code - introduced in commit 1998cc048901 ("mm: make
madvise(MADV_WILLNEED) support swap file prefetch") - correctly checks
for this situation using pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(), but it
turns out that that function doesn't work correctly.
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() expected that pmd_bad() would
trigger if the transparent hugepage bit was set, but it doesn't do that
if pmd_numa() is also set. Note that the NUMA bit only gets set on real
NUMA machines, so people trying to reproduce this on most normal
development systems would never actually trigger this.
Fix it by removing the very subtle (and subtly incorrect) expectation,
and instead just checking pmd_trans_huge() explicitly.

This patch allows FILEIO to update hw_max_sectors based on the current
max_bytes_per_io. This is required because vfs_[writev,readv]() can accept
a maximum of 2048 iovecs per call, so the enforced hw_max_sectors really
needs to be calculated based on block_size.
This addresses a >= v3.5 bug where block_size=512 was rejecting > 1M
sized I/O requests, because FD_MAX_SECTORS was hardcoded to 2048 for
the block_size=4096 case.

There are a few subtle races, between change_protection_range (used by
mprotect and change_prot_numa) on one side, and NUMA page migration and
compaction on the other side.
The basic race is that there is a time window between when the PTE gets
made non-present (PROT_NONE or NUMA), and the TLB is flushed.
During that time, a CPU may continue writing to the page.
This is fine most of the time, however compaction or the NUMA migration
code may come in, and migrate the page away.
When that happens, the CPU may continue writing, through the cached
translation, to what is no longer the current memory location of the
process.
This only affects x86, which has a somewhat optimistic pte_accessible.
All other architectures appear to be safe, and will either always flush,
or flush whenever there is a valid mapping, even with no permissions
(SPARC).
The basic race looks like this:
CPU A CPU B CPU C
load TLB entry
make entry PTE/PMD_NUMA
fault on entry
read/write old page
start migrating page
change PTE/PMD to new page
read/write old page [*]
flush TLB
reload TLB from new entry
read/write new page
lose data
[*] the old page may belong to a new user at this point!
The obvious fix is to flush remote TLB entries, by making sure that
pte_accessible aware of the fact that PROT_NONE and PROT_NUMA memory may
still be accessible if there is a TLB flush pending for the mm.
This should fix both NUMA migration and compaction.
