cfg_lock is never held long and we don't want to sleep while the
lock is being held. Thus it can be converted to a simple spinlock.
In addition we can now use the lock during the evaluation of a
wake_up condition.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm
Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
- Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing.
The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement
either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm.
ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers
to the memory controller on a power-fail event.
Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure".
A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures
that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been
flushed to media.
- On-demand ARS (address range scrub).
Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the
media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a
re-scrub at any time.
- Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command
format.
- Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem.

Pull block driver updates from Jens Axboe:
"This branch also contains core changes. I've come to the conclusion
that from 4.9 and forward, I'll be doing just a single branch. We
often have dependencies between core and drivers, and it's hard to
always split them up appropriately without pulling core into drivers
when that happens.
That said, this contains:
- separate secure erase type for the core block layer, from
Christoph.
- set of discard fixes, from Christoph.
- bio shrinking fixes from Christoph, as a followup up to the
op/flags change in the core branch.
- map and append request fixes from Christoph.

"There are a couple of new things for s390 with this merge request:
- a new scheduling domain "drawer" is added to reflect the unusual

percent gain with the additional domain.
- the new crc-32 checksum crypto module uses the vector-galois-field

- proper __ro_after_init support, this requires RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA in

- kcov instrumentation support. A prerequisite for that is the
inline assembly basic block cleanup, which is the reason for the
net/iucv/iucv.c change.

- the ETR clock synchronization is removed, this has been superseeded

Currently, presence of direct_access() in block_device_operations
indicates support of DAX on its block device. Because
block_device_operations is instantiated with 'const', this DAX
capablity may not be enabled conditinally.
In preparation for supporting DAX to device-mapper devices, add
QUEUE_FLAG_DAX to request_queue flags to advertise their DAX
support. This will allow to set the DAX capability based on how
mapped device is composed.

The workqueue "chp_wq" is involved in performing pending
configure tasks for channel paths.
It has a single work item(&cfg_work) and hence doesn't require
ordering. Also, it is not being used on a memory reclaim path.
Hence, the singlethreaded workqueue has been replaced with the use of
system_wq.
System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded
workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue
created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple
work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a
per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering
guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the
increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.

Not all machines / hypervisors support the chsc commands to fetch
the fmt1 descriptor. When these commands fail the channel path would
currently not be available to linux.
Since users of these descriptors can already deal with invalid data
make fetching it optional. The only data that is mandatory for us is
the fmt0 channel path descriptor.
Also make the return code for missing facilities in
chsc_get_channel_measurement_chars consistent to other functions.

Prior to commit 1bc6664bdfb949bc69a08113801e7d6acbf6bc3f a call to
enable_cmf for a device for which channel measurement was already
enabled resulted in a reset of the measurement data.
What looked like bugs at the time (a 2nd allocation was triggered
but failed, reset was called regardless of previous failures, and
errors have not been reported to userspace) was actually something
at least one userspace tool depended on. Restore that behavior in
a sane way.

Use the same code structure when determining preferred consoles for
Linux running as KVM guest as with Linux running in LPAR and z/VM
guest:
- Extend the console_mode variable to cover vt220 and hvc consoles
- Determine sensible console defaults in conmode_default()
- Remove KVM-special handling in set_preferred_console()
Ensure that the sclp line mode console is also registered when the
vt220 console was selected to not change existing behavior that
someone might be relying on.
As an externally visible change, KVM guest users can now select
the 3270 or 3215 console devices using the conmode= kernel parameter,
provided that support for the corresponding driver was compiled into
the kernel.

Additionally, the default outbound queue cannot be set to outbound queue 3

The function set_features is called to configure network device features
on the hardware. If errors occur, the network device features should
reflect the changed hardware state and the function should return an
error in order to notify the user.
In case of an error, the current implementation does not necessarily
save the changed hardware state in the network device features before an
error is returned.
This patch improves error handling by saving features, that could be
changed, to the network device features before returning an error. If
the device is not running, an additional check in fix_features removes
features, that require hardware changes, before they are passed to
set_features. Thus, the corresponding check was removed in set_features.

Network device features indicate the capabilities of network devices (e.g.,
TX checksum offloading and TSO) and their configuration state. Additional
network device features (vlan_features) indicate for each network device,
which capabilities can be used on VLAN devices, that are configured on the
respective base network device.
In the current qeth implementation, network device features are only set
for the base network devices and not for the VLAN devices. Thus, features
like TX checksum offloading cannot be used on VLAN devices.
This patch adds network device features to vlan_features, so they can be
used by VLAN devices.

Set scatter/gather ON by default on OSA, for both layer 2 and
layer 3 modes. We always use fragmentation over QDIO anyway,
so let the upper layers of the stack take advantage of that.

The patch enables NETIF_F_SG flag for OSA in layer 2 mode.
It also adds performance accounting for fragmented sends,
adds a conditional skb_linearize() attempt if the skb had
too many fragments for QDIO SBAL, and fills netdevice->gso_*
attributes.

It is possible to specify a user offset for the TOD clock, e.g. +2 hours.
The TOD clock will carry this offset even if the clock is synchronized
with STP. This makes the time stamps acquired with get_sync_clock()
useless as another LPAR migth use a different TOD offset.
Use the PTFF instrution to get the TOD epoch difference and subtract
it from the TOD clock value to get a physical timestamp. As the epoch
difference contains the sync check delta as well the LPAR offset value
to the physical clock needs to be refreshed after each clock
synchronization.

The sync clock operation of the channel subsystem call for STP delivers
the TOD clock difference as a result. Use this TOD clock difference
instead of the difference between the TOD timestamps before and after
the sync clock operation.

Show the dynamic and static cpu mhz of each cpu. Since these values
are per cpu this requires a fundamental extension of the format of
/proc/cpuinfo.
Historically we had only a single line per cpu and a summary at the
top of the file. This format is hardly extendible if we want to add
more per cpu information.
Therefore this patch adds per cpu blocks at the end of /proc/cpuinfo:
cpu : 0
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
cpu : 1
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
cpu : 2
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
cpu : 3
cpu Mhz dynamic : 5504
cpu Mhz static : 5504
Right now each block contains only the dynamic and static cpu mhz,
but it can be easily extended like on every other architecture.
This extension is supposed to be compatible with the old format.
