Pull x86 mm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- Continued work to add support for 5-level paging provided by future
Intel CPUs. In particular we switch the x86 GUP code to the generic
implementation. (Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Continued work to add PCID CPU support to native kernels as well.
In this round most of the focus is on reworking/refreshing the TLB
flush infrastructure for the upcoming PCID changes. (Andy
Lutomirski)"

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:

topology code (Peter Zijlstra)
- Another round of consolidating ~20 of incremental scheduler code
history: this time in terms of wait-queue nomenclature. (I didn't
get much feedback on these renaming patches, and we can still
easily change any names I might have misplaced, so if anyone hates
a new name, please holler and I'll fix it.) (Ingo Molnar)

Pull objtool updates from Ingo Molnar:
"This is an extensive rewrite of the objdump tool to track all stack

Pull core block/IO updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
core cleanups.
Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
already sent out.
This pull request contains:
- A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
different schemes for different places.
- Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
scheduler interactions in blk-mq.
- And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
and do bounce buffering in the block layer.
- A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
hangs or stalls.
- Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
differences across types of devices.
- A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.
- Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
that of the underlying device.
- Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
lightnvm, particular around pblk.
- A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
amplification.
- A series from Ming, improving and hardening blk-mq support for
stopping/starting and quiescing hardware queues.
- Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.
- A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set
support. Most notably, this kills the bio rescue work queues, if we
don't really need them.
- Lots of other little bug fixes that are all over the place"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl
Pull pinctrl fix from Linus Walleij:
"Brian noticed that this regression has not got a proper fix for the
entire merge window and consequently we need to revert the offending
commit.
It's part of the RT-mainstream work, the dance goes like this, two
steps forward, one step back.
Summary:
- A last fix for v4.12, an IRQ problem reported early in the merge
window appears not to have been properly fixed, so the offending
commit will be reverted and we will find the proper fix for v4.13.
Hopefully"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/core
Pull perf/core improvements and fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:
Intel PT enhancements:
- Support "ptwrite" instruction, a way to stuff 32 or 64 bit values into
the Intel PT trace (Adrian Hunter)
- Support power events in Intel PT to report changes to C-state (Adrian
Hunter)
- Synthesize Intel PT events as PERF_RECORD_SAMPLE records with a
perf_event_attr.type (PERF_TYPE_SYNTH) just after the range used by the
kernel, i.e. right after what is allocated for PMUs, at INT_MAX + 1U,
attr.config will have the identification for the synthesized event and
the PERF_SAMPLE_RAW payload will have its fields (Adrian Hunter)
Infrastructure changes:
- Remove warning() and error(), using instead pr_warning() and
pr_error(), consolidating error reporting (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- Add platform dependency to 'perf test 15' (Thomas Richter)

uapi/linux/a.out.h uses a number of predefined macros that are
deprecated because they're in the application namespace
(e.g. '#ifdef linux' instead of '#ifdef __linux__').
This patch either corrects or just removes them if they are not
applicable to Linux.
The primary reason this is worth bothering to fix, considering how
obsolete a.out binary support is, is that the GCC build process
considers this such a severe error that it will copy the header into a
private directory and change the macro names, which causes future
updates to the header to be masked. This header probably doesn't get
updated very often anymore, but it is the _only_ uapi header that gets
this treatment, so IMHO it is worth patching just to drive that number
all the way to zero.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux
Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
"Hopefully the last two powerpc fixes for 4.12.
The CXL one is larger than I'd usually send at rc7, but it fixes new
code this cycle, so better to have it working for the release. It was
actually sent a few weeks back but got blocked in testing behind
another fix that was causing issues.
We are still tracking one crash in v4.12-rc7, but only one person has
reproduced it and the commit identified by bisect doesn't touch any of
the relevant code, so I think it's 50/50 whether that commit is
actually the problem or it's some code layout / toolchain issue.
Two fixes for code we merged this cycle:
- cxl: Fixes for Coherent Accelerator Interface Architecture 2.0
- Avoid miscompilation w/GCC 4.6.3 on 32-bit - don't inline
copy_to/from_user()
Thanks to Al Viro, Larry Finger, Christophe Lombard"

Previously, objtool ignored functions which have the IRET instruction
in them. That's because it assumed that such functions know what
they're doing with respect to frame pointers.
With the new "objtool 2.0" changes, it stopped ignoring such functions,
and started complaining about them:
arch/x86/kernel/alternative.o: warning: objtool: do_sync_core()+0x1b: unsupported instruction in callable function
arch/x86/kernel/alternative.o: warning: objtool: text_poke()+0x1a8: unsupported instruction in callable function
arch/x86/kernel/ftrace.o: warning: objtool: do_sync_core()+0x16: unsupported instruction in callable function
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.o: warning: objtool: machine_check_poll()+0x166: unsupported instruction in callable function
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.o: warning: objtool: do_machine_check()+0x147: unsupported instruction in callable function
Silence those warnings for now. They can be re-enabled later, once we
have unwind hints which will allow the code to annotate the IRET usages.

When a read is directed to the cache, we risk that the lba has been
updated during the time we made the L2P table lookup and the time we are
actually reading form the cache. We intentionally not hold the L2P lock
not to block other threads.
While strict ordering is not a guarantee at this level (unless REQ_FLUSH
has been previously issued), we have experience that some databases that
have recently implemented direct I/O support, issue metadata reads very
close to the writes, without issuing a fsync in the middle. An easy way
to support them while they is to make an extra effort and check the L2P
map right before reading the cache.

When user threads place data into the write buffer, they reserve space
and do the memory copy out of the lock. As a consequence, when the write
thread starts persisting data, there is a chance that it is not copied
yet. In this case, avoid polling, and schedule before retrying.

CBR (core-to-bus ratio) packets provide an indication of CPU frequency. A
more accurate measure can be made by counting the cycles (given by CYC
packets) in between other timing packets (either MTC or TSC). Using TSC
packets has at least 2 issues: 1) timing might have stopped (e.g. mwait) or
2) TSC packets within PSB+ might slip past CYC packets. For now, simply do
not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSC. That leaves the case
where 2 MTC packets are used, otherwise falling back to the CBR value.
