When many pf_packet listeners are created on a lot of interfaces the
current implementation using global packet type lists scales poorly.
This patch adds per net_device packet type lists to fix this problem.
The patch was originally written by Eric Biederman for linux-2.6.29.
Tested on linux-3.16.

Merge "Samsung 3rd DT updates for v3.20" from Kukjin Kim:
- add DISP1 power domain for support HDMI support on exynos5420/5422/5800
and the power domain node including FIMD1, MIXER and HDMI modules
(tested on exynos5420 Peach Pit and exynos5800 Peach Pi Chromebooks
and exynos5422 Odroid XU3 by Javier Martinez Canillas)
Note this is including a patch for adding clock IDs for the DISP1 power
domain with Mike and Sylwester's acks so that could be handled together
to avoid non-working.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

The pedometer needs to filter out false steps that might be generated by
tapping the foot, sitting, etc. To do that it computes the number of
steps that occur in a given time and decides the user is moving only
if this value is over a threshold. E.g.: the user starts moving only
if he takes 4 steps in 3 seconds. This filter is applied only when
the user starts moving.
A device that has such pedometer functionality is Freescale's MMA9553L:
http://www.freescale.com/files/sensors/doc/ref_manual/MMA9553LSWRM.pdf.
To export this feature, this patch introduces IIO_CHAN_INFO_DEBOUNCE_COUNT
and IIO_CHAN_INFO_DEBOUNCE_TIME. For the pedometer, in_steps_debounce_count
will specify the number of steps that need to occur in
in_steps_debounce_time seconds so that the pedometer decides the user is
moving.

- Fix memory leak in error code path of runtime map code - Dan Carpenter
- Improve robustness of get_memory_map() by removing assumptions on the

memmap size - Ard Biesheuvel
- Remove superfluous guid unparse calls - Ivan Khoronzhuk

kindly picked up some patches from the linux-efi mailing list while I
was out on annual leave in December.
Perhaps the biggest risk is the get_memory_map() change from Ard, which
changes the way that both the arm64 and x86 EFI boot stub build the
early memory map. It would be good to have it bake in linux-next for a
while.

Currently we allocate an nvme_iod for each IO, which holds the
sg list, prps, and other IO related info. Set a threshold of
2 pages and/or 8KB of data, below which we can just embed this
in the per-command pdu in blk-mq. For any IO at or below
NVME_INT_PAGES and NVME_INT_BYTES, we save a kmalloc and kfree.
For higher IOPS, this saves up to 1% of CPU time.

LRO, GRO, delayed ACKs, and middleboxes can cause "stretch ACKs" that
cover more than the RFC-specified maximum of 2 packets. These stretch
ACKs can cause serious performance shortfalls in common congestion
control algorithms that were designed and tuned years ago with
receiver hosts that were not using LRO or GRO, and were instead
politely ACKing every other packet.
This patch series fixes Reno and CUBIC to handle stretch ACKs.
This patch prepares for the upcoming stretch ACK bug fix patches. It
adds an "acked" parameter to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to allow for future
fixes to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to correctly handle stretch ACKs, and
changes all congestion control algorithms to pass in 1 for the ACKed
count. It also changes tcp_slow_start() to return the number of packet
ACK "credits" that were not processed in slow start mode, and can be
processed by the congestion control module in additive increase mode.
In future patches we will fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch
ACKs, and fix Reno and CUBIC handling of stretch ACKs in slow start
and additive increase mode.

When a power domain is powered off on Exynos5420 SoC, the input clocks of
the devices attached to this power domain are re-parented to oscclk and
restored to the original parent after powering on the power domain.
So a reference to the input and parent clocks for the devices attached to
a power domain are needed to be able to do the re-parenting. The DISP1 pd
includes modules which uses the following clocks:
ACLK_200_DISP1 (MIXER and HDMILINK)
ACLK_300_DISP1 (FIMD1)
ACLK_400_DISP1 (Internal Buses)
Each of these clocks are generated as the output of a clock mux so add an
ID for all of these clock muxes and their parents to be referenced in the
DISP1 power domain device node.

While not strictly needed (DM _could_ just check for q->mq_ops to assume

If a trace event contains an array, there is currently no standard
way to format this for text output. Drivers are currently hacking
around this by a) local hacks that use the trace_seq functionailty
directly, or b) just not printing that information. For fixed size
arrays, formatting of the elements can be open-coded, but this gets
cumbersome for arrays of non-trivial size.
These approaches result in non-standard content of the event format
description delivered to userspace, so userland tools needs to be
taught to understand and parse each array printing method
individually.
This patch implements a __print_array() helper that tracepoint
implementations can use instead of reinventing it. A simple C-style
syntax is used to delimit the array and its elements {like,this}.
So that the helpers can be used with large static arrays as well as
dynamic arrays, they take a pointer and element count: they can be
used with __get_dynamic_array() for use with dynamic arrays.

In an x86 PV guest, get_user_pages_fast() on a userspace address range
containing foreign mappings does not work correctly because the M2P
lookup of the MFN from a userspace PTE may return the wrong page.
Force get_user_pages_fast() to fail on such addresses by marking the PTEs
as special.
If Xen has XENFEAT_gnttab_map_avail_bits (available since at least
4.0), we can do so efficiently in the grant map hypercall. Otherwise,
it needs to be done afterwards. This is both inefficient and racy
(the mapping is visible to the task before we fixup the PTEs), but
will be fine for well-behaved applications that do not use the mapping
until after the mmap() system call returns.
Guests with XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap (ARM and x86 HVM or PVH)
do not need this since get_user_pages() has always worked correctly
for them.

Introduce gnttab_unmap_refs_async() that can be used to safely unmap
pages that may be in use (ref count > 1). If the pages are in use the
unmap is deferred and retried later. This polling is not very clever
but it should be good enough if the cases where the delay is necessary
are rare.
The initial delay is 5 ms and is increased linearly on each subsequent
retry (to reduce load if the page is in use for a long time).
This is needed to allow block backends using grant mapping to safely
use network storage (block or filesystem based such as iSCSI or NFS).
The network storage driver may complete a block request whilst there
is a queued network packet retry (because the ack from the remote end
races with deciding to queue the retry). The pages for the retried
packet would be grant unmapped and the network driver (or hardware)
would access the unmapped page.
