The current scheme of using the i_flock list is really difficult to
manage. There is also a legitimate desire for a per-inode spinlock to
manage these lists that isn't the i_lock.
Start conversion to a new scheme to eventually replace the old i_flock
list with a new "file_lock_context" object.
We start by adding a new i_flctx to struct inode. For now, it lives in
parallel with i_flock list, but will eventually replace it. The idea is
to allocate a structure to sit in that pointer and act as a locus for
all things file locking.
We allocate a file_lock_context for an inode when the first lock is
added to it, and it's only freed when the inode is freed. We use the
i_lock to protect the assignment, but afterward it should mostly be
accessed locklessly.

Per the PCI Power Management spec r1.2, sec 3.2.4, a device that advertises
No_Soft_Reset == 0 in the PMCSR register (reported by lspci as "NoSoftRst-")
should perform an internal reset when transitioning from D3hot to D0 via
software control. Configuration context is lost and the device requires a
full reinitialization sequence.
Unfortunately the definition of "internal reset", beyond the application of
the configuration context, is largely left to the interpretation of the
specific device. Some devices don't seem to perform an "internal reset"
even if they report No_Soft_Reset == 0.
We still need to honor the PCI specification and restore PCI config context
in the event that we do a PM reset, so we don't cache and modify the
PCI_PM_CTRL_NO_SOFT_RESET bit for the device, but for interfaces where the
intention is to reset the device, like pci_reset_function(), we need a
mechanism to flag that PM reset (a D3hot->D0 transition) doesn't perform
any significant "internal reset" of the device.

Add pci_claim_bridge_resource() to claim a PCI-PCI bridge window. This is
like regular pci_claim_resource(), except that if we fail to claim the
window, we check to see if we can reduce the size of the window and try
again.
This is for scenarios like this:
pci_bus 0000:00: root bus resource [mem 0xc0000000-0xffffffff]
pci 0000:00:01.0: bridge window [mem 0xbdf00000-0xddefffff 64bit pref]
pci 0000:01:00.0: reg 0x10: [mem 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff pref]
The 00:01.0 window is illegal: it starts before the host bridge window, so
we have to assume the [0xbdf00000-0xbfffffff] region is inaccessible. We
can make it legal by clipping it to [mem 0xc0000000-0xddefffff 64bit pref].
Previously we discarded the 00:01.0 window and tried to reassign that part
of the hierarchy from scratch. That is a problem because Linux doesn't
always assign things optimally. For example, in this case, BIOS put the
01:00.0 device in a prefetchable window below 4GB, but after 5b28541552ef,
Linux puts the prefetchable window above 4GB where the 32-bit 01:00.0
device can't use it.
Clipping the 00:01.0 window is less intrusive than completely reassigning
things and is sufficient to let us use most of the BIOS configuration. Of
course, it's possible that devices below 00:01.0 will no longer fit. If
that's the case, we'll have to reassign things. But that's a separate
problem.

Enable a mechanism for devices to quirk that they do not behave when
doing a PCI bus reset. We require a modest level of spec compliant
behavior in order to do a reset, for instance the device should come
out of reset without throwing errors and PCI config space should be
accessible after reset. This is too much to ask for some devices.

Although cond_resched_rcu_qs() only applies to TASKS_RCU, it is used
in places where it would be useful for it to apply to the normal RCU
flavors, rcu_preempt, rcu_sched, and rcu_bh. This is especially the
case for workloads that aggressively overload the system, particularly
those that generate large numbers of RCU updates on systems running
NO_HZ_FULL CPUs. This commit therefore communicates quiescent states
from cond_resched_rcu_qs() to the normal RCU flavors.
Note that it is unfortunately necessary to leave the old ->passed_quiesce
mechanism in place to allow quiescent states that apply to only one
flavor to be recorded. (Yes, we could decrement ->rcu_qs_ctr_snap in
that case, but that is not so good for debugging of RCU internals.)
In addition, if one of the RCU flavor's grace period has stalled, this
will invoke rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle(), resulting in a heavy-weight
quiescent state visible from other CPUs.

When we put our declared work task in the global workqueue with
schedule_delayed_work(), its delay parameter is always zero.
Therefore, we should define a regular work in rhashtable structure
instead of a delayed work.
By the way, we add a condition to check whether resizing functions
are NULL before cancelling the work, avoiding to cancel an
uninitialized work.
Lastly, while we wait for all work items we submitted before to run
to completion with cancel_delayed_work(), ht->mutex has been taken in
rhashtable_destroy(). Moreover, cancel_delayed_work() doesn't return
until all work items are accomplished, and when work items are
scheduled, the work's function - rht_deferred_worker() will be called.
However, as rht_deferred_worker() also needs to acquire the lock,
deadlock might happen at the moment as the lock is already held before.
So if the cancel work function is moved out of the lock covered scope,
this will avoid the deadlock.

RAW sockets with hdrinc suffer from contention on rt_uncached_lock
spinlock.
One solution is to use percpu lists, since most routes are destroyed

It is unclear why we even have to put these routes in uncached_list,
as all outgoing packets should be freed when a device is dismantled.

For some reason, we made the bandwidth separate flags, which
is rather confusing - a single rate cannot have different
bandwidths at the same time.
Change this to no longer be flags but use a separate field
for the bandwidth ('bw') instead.
While at it, add support for 5 and 10 MHz rates - these are
reported as regular legacy rates with their real bitrate,
but tagged as 5/10 now to make it easier to distinguish them.
In the nl80211 API, the flags are preserved, but the code
now can also clearly only set a single one of the flags.

Currently the Linux server can not decode RDMA_NOMSG type requests.
Operations whose length exceeds the fixed size of RDMA SEND buffers,
like large NFSv4 CREATE(NF4LNK) operations, must be conveyed via
RDMA_NOMSG.
For an RDMA_MSG type request, the client sends the RPC/RDMA, RPC
headers, and some or all of the NFS arguments via RDMA SEND.
For an RDMA_NOMSG type request, the client sends just the RPC/RDMA
header via RDMA SEND. The request's read list contains elements for
the entire RPC message, including the RPC header.
NFSD expects the RPC/RMDA header and RPC header to be contiguous in
page zero of the XDR buffer. Add logic in the RDMA READ path to make
the read list contents land where the server prefers, when the
incoming message is a type RDMA_NOMSG message.

During the CAN FD standardization process within the ISO it turned out that
the failure detection capability has to be improved.
The CAN in Automation organization (CiA) defined the already implemented CAN
FD controllers as 'non-ISO' and the upcoming improved CAN FD controllers as
'ISO' compliant. See at http://www.can-cia.com/index.php?id=1937
Finally there will be three types of CAN FD controllers in the future:
1. ISO compliant (fixed)
2. non-ISO compliant (fixed, like the M_CAN IP v3.0.1 in m_can.c)
3. ISO/non-ISO CAN FD controllers (switchable, like the PEAK USB FD)
So the current M_CAN driver for the M_CAN IP v3.0.1 has to expose its non-ISO
implementation by setting the CAN_CTRLMODE_FD_NON_ISO ctrlmode at startup.
As this bit cannot be switched at configuration time CAN_CTRLMODE_FD_NON_ISO
must not be set in ctrlmode_supported of the current M_CAN driver.

There are no more users of this field left so it can finally be removed.
New users should use snd_soc_dapm_to_codec(w->dapm);
The reason why it is removed is because it doesn't fit to well anymore in
the componentized ASoC hierarchy, where DAPM works on the snd_soc_component
level. And the alternative of snd_soc_dapm_to_codec(w->dapm) typically
generates the same amount of code, so there is really no reason to keep it.
For automatic conversion the following coccinelle semantic patch can be used:

Introduces support for the group policy extension to the VXLAN virtual
port. The extension is disabled by default and only enabled if the user
has provided the respective configuration.
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vxlan0 -- \
set Interface vxlan0 type=vxlan options:exts=gbp
The configuration interface to enable the extension is based on a new
attribute OVS_VXLAN_EXT_GBP nested inside OVS_TUNNEL_ATTR_EXTENSION
which can carry additional extensions as needed in the future.
The group policy metadata is stored as binary blob (struct ovs_vxlan_opts)
internally just like Geneve options but transported as nested Netlink
attributes to user space.
Renames the existing TUNNEL_OPTIONS_PRESENT to TUNNEL_GENEVE_OPT with the
binary value kept intact, a new flag TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT is introduced.
The attributes OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_VXLAN_OPTS and existing
OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_GENEVE_OPTS are implemented mutually exclusive.

Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide
a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers
based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped
to/from skb->mark. This allows further mapping to a SELinux context
using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS,
tc, etc.
The group membership is defined by the lower 16 bits of skb->mark, the
upper 16 bits are used for flags.
SELinux allows to manage label to secure local resources. However,
distributed applications require ACLs to implemented across hosts. This
is typically achieved by matching on L2-L4 fields to identify the
original sending host and process on the receiver. On top of that,
netlabel and specifically CIPSO [1] allow to map security contexts to
universal labels. However, netlabel and CIPSO are relatively complex.
This patch provides a lightweight alternative for overlay network
environments with a trusted underlay. No additional control protocol
is required.

Group A Group B Group B Group A

Backwards compatibility:
A VXLAN-GBP socket can receive standard VXLAN frames and will assign
the default group 0x0000 to such frames. A Linux VXLAN socket will
drop VXLAN-GBP frames. The extension is therefore disabled by default
and needs to be specifically enabled:
ip link add [...] type vxlan [...] gbp
In a mixed environment with VXLAN and VXLAN-GBP sockets, the GBP socket
must run on a separate port number.
Examples:
iptables:
host1# iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner 101 -j MARK --set-mark 0x200

Conflicts:
drivers/net/xen-netfront.c
Minor overlapping changes in xen-netfront.c, mostly to do
with some buffer management changes alongside the split
of stats into TX and RX.

USB-serial fixes for v3.18-rc5
Here are a few fixes for reported problems including a possible
null-deref on probe with keyspan, a misbehaving modem, and a couple of
issues with the USB console.
Some new device IDs are also added.
