Usually the vcpu->requests bitmap is sparse, so a test_and_clear_bit() for
each request generates a large number of unneeded atomics if a bit is set.
Replace with a separate test/clear sequence. This is safe since there is
no clear_bit() outside the vcpu thread.

KVM_REQ_KICK poisons vcpu->requests by having a bit set during normal
operation. This causes the fast path check for a clear vcpu->requests
to fail all the time, triggering tons of atomic operations.
Fix by replacing KVM_REQ_KICK with a vcpu->guest_mode atomic.

In common cases, guest SRAO MCE will cause corresponding poisoned page
be un-mapped and SIGBUS be sent to QEMU-KVM, then QEMU-KVM will relay
the MCE to guest OS.
But it is reported that if the poisoned page is accessed in guest
after unmapping and before MCE is relayed to guest OS, userspace will
be killed.
The reason is as follows. Because poisoned page has been un-mapped,
guest access will cause guest exit and kvm_mmu_page_fault will be
called. kvm_mmu_page_fault can not get the poisoned page for fault
address, so kernel and user space MMIO processing is tried in turn. In
user MMIO processing, poisoned page is accessed again, then userspace
is killed by force_sig_info.
To fix the bug, kvm_mmu_page_fault send HWPOISON signal to QEMU-KVM
and do not try kernel and user space MMIO processing for poisoned
page.

In TPS6507x, depending on the status of DEFDCDC{2,3} pin either
DEFDCDC{2,3}_LOW or DEFDCDC{2,3}_HIGH register needs to be read or
programmed to change the output voltage.
The current driver assumes DEFDCDC{2,3} pins are always tied low
and thus operates only on DEFDCDC{2,3}_LOW register. This need
not always be the case (as is found on OMAP-L138 EVM).
Unfortunately, software cannot read the status of DEFDCDC{2,3} pins.
So, this information is passed through platform data depending on
how the board is wired.

This fixes hang when target device of mirred packet classifier
action is removed.
If a mirror or redirection action is configured to cause packets
to go to another device, the classifier holds a ref count, but was assuming
the adminstrator cleaned up all redirections before removing. The fix
is to add a notifier and cleanup during unregister.
The new list is implicitly protected by RTNL mutex because
it is held during filter add/delete as well as notifier.

Commit 2a6b69765ad794389f2fc3e14a0afa1a995221c2
(ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the
ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it
during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems
need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work. To allow
the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area
during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line
option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its
alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal
file).

The .data..init_task output section was missing
a load offset causing a popwerpc target to fail to boot.
Sean MacLennan tracked it down to the definition of
INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION().
There are only two users of INIT_TASK_DATA_SECTION()
in the kernel today: cris and popwerpc.
cris do not support relocatable kernels and is thus not
impacted by this change.

all other output sections.

It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3
that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not.
Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS.
If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS,
it can retard or completely prevent entry into
deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat:

Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.
This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length. This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.
This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.
Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.
This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.
Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.
Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.
Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length. This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

The kernel's math-emu code contains a macro _FP_FROM_INT() which is
used to convert an integer to a raw normalized floating-point value.
It does this basically in three steps:
1. Compute the exponent from the number of leading zero bits.
2. Downshift large fractions to put the MSB in the right position
for normalized fractions.
3. Upshift small fractions to put the MSB in the right position.
There is an boundary error in step 2, causing a fraction with its
MSB exactly one bit above the normalized MSB position to not be
downshifted. This results in a non-normalized raw float, which when
packed becomes a massively inaccurate representation for that input.
The impact of this depends on a number of arch-specific factors,
but it is known to have broken emulation of FXTOD instructions
on UltraSPARC III, which was originally reported as GCC bug 44631
<http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44631>.
Any arch which uses math-emu to emulate conversions from integers to
same-size floats may be affected.
The fix is simple: the exponent comparison used to determine if the
fraction should be downshifted must be "<=" not "<".
I'm sending a kernel module to test this as a reply to this message.
There are also SPARC user-space test cases in the GCC bug entry.

If a single-threaded process does a file-descriptor operation, and some
other process accesses that same file descriptor via /proc, the current
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable() can give a false-positive RCU-lockdep
splat due to the reference count being increased by the /proc access after
the reference-count check in fget_light() but before the check in
rcu_dereference_check_fdtable().
This commit prevents this false positive by checking for a single-threaded
process. To avoid #include hell, this commit uses the wrapper for
thread_group_empty(current) defined by rcu_my_thread_group_empty()
provided in a separate commit.

We define a number of symbols in the linker scipt like this:
__start_syscalls_metadata = .;
*(__syscalls_metadata)
But we do not know the alignment of "." when we assign
the __start_syscalls_metadata symbol.
gcc started to uses bigger alignment for structs (32 bytes),
so we saw situations where the linker due to alignment
constraints increased the value of "." after the symbol assignment.
This resulted in boot fails.
Fix this by forcing a 32 byte alignment of "." before the
assignment.
This patch introduces the forced alignment for
ftrace_events and syscalls_metadata.
It may be required in more places.

If we fail to assign resources to a PCI BAR, this patch makes us try the
original address from BIOS rather than leaving it disabled.
Linux tries to make sure all PCI device BARs are inside the upstream
PCI host bridge or P2P bridge apertures, reassigning BARs if necessary.
Windows does similar reassignment.
Before this patch, if we could not move a BAR into an aperture, we left
the resource unassigned, i.e., at address zero. Windows leaves such BARs
at the original BIOS addresses, and this patch makes Linux do the same.
This is a bit ugly because we disable the resource long before we try to
reassign it, so we have to keep track of the BIOS BAR address somewhere.
For lack of a better place, I put it in the struct pci_dev.
I think it would be cleaner to attempt the assignment immediately when the
claim fails, so we could easily remember the original address. But we
currently claim motherboard resources in the middle, after attempting to
claim PCI resources and before assigning new PCI resources, and changing
that is a fairly big job.

OCFS2 uses t_commit trigger to compute and store checksum of the just
committed blocks. When a buffer has b_frozen_data, checksum is computed
for it instead of b_data but this can result in an old checksum being
written to the filesystem in the following scenario:
1) transaction1 is opened
2) handle1 is opened
3) journal_access(handle1, bh)
- This sets jh->b_transaction to transaction1
4) modify(bh)
5) journal_dirty(handle1, bh)
6) handle1 is closed
7) start committing transaction1, opening transaction2
8) handle2 is opened
9) journal_access(handle2, bh)
- This copies off b_frozen_data to make it safe for transaction1 to commit.
jh->b_next_transaction is set to transaction2.
10) jbd2_journal_write_metadata() checksums b_frozen_data
11) the journal correctly writes b_frozen_data to the disk journal
12) handle2 is closed
- There was no dirty call for the bh on handle2, so it is never queued for
any more journal operation
13) Checkpointing finally happens, and it just spools the bh via normal buffer
writeback. This will write b_data, which was never triggered on and thus
contains a wrong (old) checksum.
This patch fixes the problem by calling the trigger at the moment data is
frozen for journal commit - i.e., either when b_frozen_data is created by
do_get_write_access or just before we write a buffer to the log if
b_frozen_data does not exist. We also rename the trigger to t_frozen as
that better describes when it is called.

Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket. In
dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with
sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get.
The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these
calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the
sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so
that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index
and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and
can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit.
We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper
checks. The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue
if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it
returns -1. sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be
completely removed.

For some reason if we declare a static variable and then assign it
later, and the assignment contains a __attribute__((__aligned__(#))),
some versions of gcc will ignore it.
This caused the syscall meta data to not be compact in its section
and caused a kernel oops when the section was being read.
The fix for these versions of gcc seems to be to add the aligned
attribute to the declaration as well.
This fixes the BZ regression:

* 'drm-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6:
drm: correctly update connector DPMS status in drm_fb_helper
drm/radeon/kms: fix shared ddc handling
drm/ttm: Allocate the page pool manager in the heap.

Repeated ttm_page_alloc_init/fini fails noisily because the pool
manager kobj isn't zeroed out between uses (we could do just that but
statically allocated kobjects are generally considered a bad thing).
Move it to kzalloc'ed memory.
Note that this patch drops the refcounting behavior of the pool
allocator init/fini functions: it would have led to a race condition
in its current form, and anyway it was never exploited.
This fixes a regression with reloading kms modules at runtime, since
page allocator was introduced.

This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()',
'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply
set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make
every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating
the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly.
Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic
superblock synchronization optimization which is about
preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up
even if there is nothing to synchronize.
This patch does not do any functional change, just adds
accessor functions.
