Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This branch contains platform-related driver updates for ARM and
ARM64, these are the areas that bring the changes:
New drivers:
- driver support for Renesas R-Car V3M (R8A77970)
- power management support for Amlogic GX
- a new driver for the Tegra BPMP thermal sensor
- a new bus driver for Technologic Systems NBUS
Changes for subsystems that prefer to merge through arm-soc:
- the usual updates for reset controller drivers from Philipp Zabel,
with five added drivers for SoCs in the arc, meson, socfpa,
uniphier and mediatek families
- updates to the ARM SCPI and PSCI frameworks, from Sudeep Holla,
Heiner Kallweit and Lorenzo Pieralisi
Changes specific to some ARM-based SoC
- the Freescale/NXP DPAA QBMan drivers from PowerPC can now work on
ARM as well
- several changes for power management on Broadcom SoCs
- various improvements on Qualcomm, Broadcom, Amlogic, Atmel,
Mediatek
- minor Cleanups for Samsung, TI OMAP SoCs"
[ NOTE! This doesn't work without the previous ARM SoC device-tree pull,
because the R8A77970 driver is missing a header file that came from
that pull.
The fact that this got merged afterwards only fixes it at this point,
and bisection of that driver will fail if/when you walk into the
history of that driver. - Linus ]

For existing SoC support, there was a lot of ongoing work, as usual
most of that concentrated on the Renesas, Rockchip, OMAP, i.MX,
Amlogic and Allwinner platforms, but others were also active.
Rob Herring and many others worked on reducing the number of issues
that the latest version of 'dtc' now warns about. Unfortunately there
is still a lot left to do.
A rework of the ARM foundation model introduced several new files for
common variations of the model"

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"Most of the commits are for defconfig changes, to enable newly added
drivers or features that people have started using. For the changed
lines lines, we have mostly cleanups, the affected platforms are OMAP,
Versatile, EP93xx, Samsung, Broadcom, i.MX, and Actions.
The largest single change is the introduction of the TI "sysc" bus
driver, with the intention of cleaning up more legacy code.
Two new SoC platforms get added this time:
- Allwinner R40 is a modernized version of the A20 chip, now with a
Quad-Core ARM Cortex-A7. According to the manufacturer, it is
intended for "Smart Hardware"
- Broadcom Hurricane 2 (Aka Strataconnect BCM5334X) is a family of
chips meant for managed gigabit ethernet switches, based around a
Cortex-A9 CPU.
Finally, we gain SMP support for two platforms: Renesas R-Car E2 and
Amlogic Meson8/8b, which were previously added but only supported
uniprocessor operation"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace update from Eric Biederman:
"The only change that is production ready this round is the work to
increase the number of uid and gid mappings a user namespace can
support from 5 to 340.
This code was carefully benchmarked and it was confirmed that in the
existing cases the performance remains the same. In the worst case
with 340 mappings an cache cold stat times go from 158ns to 248ns.
That is noticable but still quite small, and only the people who are
doing crazy things pay the cost.
This work uncovered some documentation and cleanup opportunities in
the mapping code, and patches to make those cleanups and improve the
documentation will be coming in the next merge window"

Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, we introduce sysfile-based quota support which is
required for Android by default. In addition, we allow that users are
able to reserve some blocks in runtime to mitigate performance drops

- issue cache_flush on dirty devices only among multiple devices
- exploit cp_error flag and add more faults to enhance fault
injection test
- conduct more readaheads during f2fs_readdir
- add a range for discard commands
Bug fixes:
- fix zero stat->st_blocks when inline_data is set
- drop crypto key and free stale memory pointer while evict_inode is
failing
- fix some corner cases in free space and segment management
- fix wrong last_disk_size

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs
Pull AFS updates from David Howells:
"kAFS filesystem driver overhaul.
The major points of the overhaul are:
(1) Preliminary groundwork is laid for supporting network-namespacing
of kAFS. The remainder of the namespacing work requires some way
to pass namespace information to submounts triggered by an
automount. This requires something like the mount overhaul that's
in progress.
(2) sockaddr_rxrpc is used in preference to in_addr for holding
addresses internally and add support for talking to the YFS VL
server. With this, kAFS can do everything over IPv6 as well as
IPv4 if it's talking to servers that support it.
(3) Callback handling is overhauled to be generally passive rather
than active. 'Callbacks' are promises by the server to tell us
about data and metadata changes. Callbacks are now checked when
we next touch an inode rather than actively going and looking for
it where possible.
(4) File access permit caching is overhauled to store the caching
information per-inode rather than per-directory, shared over
subordinate files. Whilst older AFS servers only allow ACLs on
directories (shared to the files in that directory), newer AFS
servers break that restriction.
To improve memory usage and to make it easier to do mass-key
removal, permit combinations are cached and shared.
(5) Cell database management is overhauled to allow lighter locks to
be used and to make cell records autonomous state machines that
look after getting their own DNS records and cleaning themselves
up, in particular preventing races in acquiring and relinquishing
the fscache token for the cell.
(6) Volume caching is overhauled. The afs_vlocation record is got rid
of to simplify things and the superblock is now keyed on the cell
and the numeric volume ID only. The volume record is tied to a
superblock and normal superblock management is used to mediate
the lifetime of the volume fscache token.
(7) File server record caching is overhauled to make server records
independent of cells and volumes. A server can be in multiple
cells (in such a case, the administrator must make sure that the
VL services for all cells correctly reflect the volumes shared
between those cells).
Server records are now indexed using the UUID of the server
rather than the address since a server can have multiple
addresses.
(8) File server rotation is overhauled to handle VMOVED, VBUSY (and
similar), VOFFLINE and VNOVOL indications and to handle rotation
both of servers and addresses of those servers. The rotation will
also wait and retry if the server says it is busy.
(9) Data writeback is overhauled. Each inode no longer stores a list
of modified sections tagged with the key that authorised it in
favour of noting the modified region of a page in page->private
and storing a list of keys that made modifications in the inode.
This simplifies things and allows other keys to be used to
actually write to the server if a key that made a modification
becomes useless.
(10) Writable mmap() is implemented. This allows a kernel to be build
entirely on AFS.
Note that Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can
be added back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998)"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl
Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle:
Core:
- The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a
menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the
subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of
two things:
(a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in
a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the
highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical
places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview,
denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint...
It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that
this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an
embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware.
(b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic.
Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are
expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in
directly for their set-up.
- Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a
very vanilla subsystem. Do not depend on it, if we need it, select
it.
- Exposing the pin control subsystem in menuconfig uncovered a bunch
of obscure bugs that are now hopefully fixed, all more or less
pertaining to Blackfin.
- Unified namespace for cross-calls between pin control and GPIO.
- New support for clock skew/delay generic DT bindings and generic
pin config options for this.
- Minor documentation improvements.
Various:
- The Renesas SH-PFC pin controller has evolved a lot. It seems
Renesas are churning out new SoCs by the minute.
- A bunch of non-critical fixes for the Rockchip driver.
- Improve the use of library functions instead of open coding.
- Support the MCP28018 variant in the MCP28x08 driver.
- Static constifying"

alloc_warn() and dump_header() have to explicitly handle NULL nodemask
which forces both paths to use pr_cont. We can do better. printk
already handles NULL pointers properly so all we need is to teach
nodemask_pr_args to handle NULL nodemask carefully. This allows
simplification of both alloc_warn() and dump_header() and gets rid of
pr_cont altogether.
This patch has been motivated by patch from Joe Perches

In reset_deferred_meminit() we determine number of pages that must not
be deferred. We initialize pages for at least 2G of memory, but also
pages for reserved memory in this node.
The reserved memory is determined in this function:
memblock_reserved_memory_within(), which operates over physical
addresses, and returns size in bytes. However, reset_deferred_meminit()
assumes that that this function operates with pfns, and returns page
count.
The result is that in the best case machine boots slower than expected
due to initializing more pages than needed in single thread, and in the
worst case panics because fewer than needed pages are initialized early.

This is the second step which introduces a tunable interface that allow
numa stats configurable for optimizing zone_statistics(), as suggested
by Dave Hansen and Ying Huang.
=========================================================================
When page allocation performance becomes a bottleneck and you can
tolerate some possible tool breakage and decreased numa counter
precision, you can do:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/vm/numa_stat
In this case, numa counter update is ignored. We can see about
*4.8%*(185->176) drop of cpu cycles per single page allocation and
reclaim on Jesper's page_bench01 (single thread) and *8.1%*(343->315)
drop of cpu cycles per single page allocation and reclaim on Jesper's
page_bench03 (88 threads) running on a 2-Socket Broadwell-based server
(88 threads, 126G memory).
Benchmark link provided by Jesper D Brouer (increase loop times to
10000000):
https://github.com/netoptimizer/prototype-kernel/tree/master/kernel/mm/bench
=========================================================================
When page allocation performance is not a bottleneck and you want all
tooling to work, you can do:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/numa_stat
This is system default setting.
Many thanks to Michal Hocko, Dave Hansen, Ying Huang and Vlastimil Babka

According to Vlastimil Babka, the drained field in pagevec is
potentially misleading because it might be interpreted as draining this
pagevec instead of the percpu lru pagevecs. Rename the field for
clarity.

As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold
pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that
allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of
__GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying
other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the
__GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page
allocator.
This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the
per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu
list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential
benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's
even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance
of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the
zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway.
The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the
allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was
tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising
given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the
fault path.

Most callers users of free_hot_cold_page claim the pages being released
are cache hot. The exception is the page reclaim paths where it is
likely that enough pages will be freed in the near future that the
per-cpu lists are going to be recycled and the cache hotness information
is lost. As no one really cares about the hotness of pages being
released to the allocator, just ditch the parameter.
The APIs are renamed to indicate that it's no longer about hot/cold
pages. It should also be less confusing as there are subtle differences
between them. __free_pages drops a reference and frees a page when the
refcount reaches zero. free_hot_cold_page handled pages whose refcount
was already zero which is non-obvious from the name. free_unref_page
should be more obvious.
No performance impact is expected as the overhead is marginal. The
parameter is removed simply because it is a bit stupid to have a useless
parameter copied everywhere.

When a pagevec is initialised on the stack, it is generally used
multiple times over a range of pages, looking up entries and then
releasing them. On each pagevec_release, the per-cpu deferred LRU
pagevecs are drained on the grounds the page being released may be on
those queues and the pages may be cache hot. In many cases only the
first drain is necessary as it's unlikely that the range of pages being
walked is racing against LRU addition. Even if there is such a race,
the impact is marginal where as constantly redraining the lru pagevecs
costs.
This patch ensures that pagevec is only drained once in a given
lifecycle without increasing the cache footprint of the pagevec
structure. Only sparsetruncate tiny is shown here as large files have
many exceptional entries and calls pagecache_release less frequently.

The impact on bonnie is marginal and within the noise because a
significant percentage of the file being truncated has been reclaimed
and consists of shadow entries which reduce the hotness of the
pagevec_release path.

During truncation, the mapping has already been checked for shmem and
dax so it's known that workingset_update_node is required.
This patch avoids the checks on mapping for each page being truncated.
In all other cases, a lookup helper is used to determine if
workingset_update_node() needs to be called. The one danger is that the
API is slightly harder to use as calling workingset_update_node directly
without checking for dax or shmem mappings could lead to surprises.
However, the API rarely needs to be used and hopefully the comment is
enough to give people the hint.

As you'd expect, the gain is marginal but it can be detected. The
differences in bonnie are all within the noise which is not surprising
given the impact on the microbenchmark.
radix_tree_update_node_t is a callback for some radix operations that
optionally passes in a private field. The only user of the callback is
workingset_update_node and as it no longer requires a mapping, the
private field is removed.

Currently we remove pages from the radix tree one by one. To speed up
page cache truncation, lock several pages at once and free them in one
go. This allows us to batch radix tree operations in a more efficient
way and also save round-trips on mapping->tree_lock. As a result we
gain about 20% speed improvement in page cache truncation.
Data from a simple benchmark timing 10000 truncates of 1024 pages (on
ext4 on ramdisk but the filesystem is barely visible in the profiles).
The range shows 1% and 95% percentiles of the measured times:

Patch series "Speed up page cache truncation", v1.
When rebasing our enterprise distro to a newer kernel (from 4.4 to 4.12)
we have noticed a regression in bonnie++ benchmark when deleting files.
Eventually we have tracked this down to a fact that page cache
truncation got slower by about 10%. There were both gains and losses in
the above interval of kernels but we have been able to identify that
commit 83929372f629 ("filemap: prepare find and delete operations for
huge pages") caused about 10% regression on its own.
After some investigation it didn't seem easily possible to fix the
regression while maintaining the THP in page cache functionality so
we've decided to optimize the page cache truncation path instead to make
up for the change. This series is a result of that effort.
Patch 1 is an easy speedup of cancel_dirty_page(). Patches 2-6 refactor
page cache truncation code so that it is easier to batch radix tree
operations. Patch 7 implements batching of deletes from the radix tree
which more than makes up for the original regression.
This patch (of 7):
cancel_dirty_page() does quite some work even for clean pages (fetching
of mapping, locking of memcg, atomic bit op on page flags) so it
accounts for ~2.5% of cost of truncation of a clean page. That is not
much but still dumb for something we don't need at all. Check whether a
page is actually dirty and avoid any work if not.

Some memory is reserved but unavailable: not present in memblock.memory
(because not backed by physical pages), but present in memblock.reserved.
Such memory has backing struct pages, but they are not initialized by
going through __init_single_page().
In some cases these struct pages are accessed even if they do not
contain any data. One example is page_to_pfn() might access page->flags
if this is where section information is stored (CONFIG_SPARSEMEM,
SECTION_IN_PAGE_FLAGS).
One example of such memory: trim_low_memory_range() unconditionally
reserves from pfn 0, but e820__memblock_setup() might provide the
exiting memory from pfn 1 (i.e. KVM).
Since struct pages are zeroed in __init_single_page(), and not during
allocation time, we must zero such struct pages explicitly.
The patch involves adding a new memblock iterator:
for_each_resv_unavail_range(i, p_start, p_end)
Which iterates through reserved && !memory lists, and we zero struct pages
explicitly by calling mm_zero_struct_page().
===
Here is more detailed example of problem that this patch is addressing:
Run tested on qemu with the following arguments:
-enable-kvm -cpu kvm64 -m 512 -smp 2
This patch reports that there are 98 unavailable pages.
They are: pfn 0 and pfns in range [159, 255].
Note, trim_low_memory_range() reserves only pfns in range [0, 15], it does
not reserve [159, 255] ones.
e820__memblock_setup() reports linux that the following physical ranges are
available:
[1 , 158]
[256, 130783]
Notice, that exactly unavailable pfns are missing!
Now, lets check what we have in zone 0: [1, 131039]
pfn 0, is not part of the zone, but pfns [1, 158], are.
However, the bigger problem we have if we do not initialize these struct
pages is with memory hotplug. Because, that path operates at 2M
boundaries (section_nr). And checks if 2M range of pages is hot
removable. It starts with first pfn from zone, rounds it down to 2M
boundary (sturct pages are allocated at 2M boundaries when vmemmap is
created), and checks if that section is hot removable. In this case
start with pfn 1 and convert it down to pfn 0. Later pfn is converted
to struct page, and some fields are checked. Now, if we do not zero
struct pages, we get unpredictable results.
In fact when CONFIG_VM_DEBUG is enabled, and we explicitly set all
vmemmap memory to ones, the following panic is observed with kernel test
without this patch applied:

* A new variant of memblock_virt_alloc_* allocations:
memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw()
- Does not zero the allocated memory
- Does not panic if request cannot be satisfied
* optimize early system hash allocations
Clients can call alloc_large_system_hash() with flag: HASH_ZERO to
specify that memory that was allocated for system hash needs to be
zeroed, otherwise the memory does not need to be zeroed, and client will
initialize it.
If memory does not need to be zero'd, call the new
memblock_virt_alloc_raw() interface, and thus improve the boot
performance.
* debug for raw alloctor
When CONFIG_DEBUG_VM is enabled, this patch sets all the memory that is
returned by memblock_virt_alloc_try_nid_raw() to ones to ensure that no
places excpect zeroed memory.

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2.
As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck.
KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of
kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream.
We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't
consider KASan as a suitable replacement).
The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC
versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2
years, and try again.
Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports
KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons.
This patch (of 4):
Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

Currently, we account page tables separately for each page table level,
but that's redundant -- we only make use of total memory allocated to
page tables for oom_badness calculation. We also provide the
information to userspace, but it has dubious value there too.
This patch switches page table accounting to single counter.
mm->pgtables_bytes is now used to account all page table levels. We use
bytes, because page table size for different levels of page table tree
may be different.
The change has user-visible effect: we don't have VmPMD and VmPUD
reported in /proc/[pid]/status. Not sure if anybody uses them. (As
alternative, we can always report 0 kB for them.)
OOM-killer report is also slightly changed: we now report pgtables_bytes
instead of nr_ptes, nr_pmd, nr_puds.
Apart from reducing number of counters per-mm, the benefit is that we
now calculate oom_badness() more correctly for machines which have
different size of page tables depending on level or where page tables
are less than a page in size.
The only downside can be debuggability because we do not know which page
table level could leak. But I do not remember many bugs that would be
caught by separate counters so I wouldn't lose sleep over this.

Let's add wrappers for ->nr_ptes with the same interface as for nr_pmd
and nr_pud.
The patch also makes nr_ptes accounting dependent onto CONFIG_MMU. Page
table accounting doesn't make sense if you don't have page tables.
It's preparation for consolidation of page-table counters in mm_struct.

On a machine with 5-level paging support a process can allocate
significant amount of memory and stay unnoticed by oom-killer and memory
cgroup. The trick is to allocate a lot of PUD page tables. We don't
account PUD page tables, only PMD and PTE.
We already addressed the same issue for PMD page tables, see commit
dc6c9a35b66b ("mm: account pmd page tables to the process").
Introduction of 5-level paging brings the same issue for PUD page
tables.
The patch expands accounting to PUD level.

Patch series "Ranged pagevec tagged lookup", v3.
In this series I provide a ranged variant of pagevec_lookup_tag() and
use it in places where it makes sense. This series removes some common
code and it also has a potential for speeding up some operations
similarly as for pagevec_lookup_range() (but for now I can think of only
artificial cases where this happens).
This patch (of 16):
Implement a variant of find_get_pages_tag() that stops iterating at
given index. Lots of users of this function (through pagevec_lookup())
actually want a range lookup and all of them are currently open-coding
this.
Also create corresponding pagevec_lookup_range_tag() function.

empty_bad_page() and empty_bad_pte_table() seem to be relics from old
days which is not used by any code for a long time. I have tried to
find when exactly but this is not really all that straightforward due to
many code movements - traces disappear around 2.4 times.
Anyway no code really references neither empty_bad_page nor
empty_bad_pte_table. We only allocate the storage which is not used by
anybody so remove them.

Since commit 59dc76b0d4df ("mm: vmscan: reduce size of inactive file
list") 'pgdat->inactive_ratio' is not used, except for printing
"node_inactive_ratio: 0" in /proc/zoneinfo output.
Remove it.

This is an optimization patch that only affect mmu_notifier users which
rely on the invalidate_range() callback. This patch avoids calling that
callback twice in a row from inside __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end
Existing pattern (before this patch):
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
pte/pmd/pud_clear_flush_notify()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
New pattern (after this patch):
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
pte/pmd/pud_clear_flush_notify()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range()
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_only_end()
We call the invalidate_range callback after clearing the page table
under the page table lock and we skip the call to invalidate_range
inside the __mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() function.
Idea from Andrea Arcangeli

This patch only affects users of mmu_notifier->invalidate_range callback
which are device drivers related to ATS/PASID, CAPI, IOMMUv2, SVM ...
and it is an optimization for those users. Everyone else is unaffected
by it.
When clearing a pte/pmd we are given a choice to notify the event under
the page table lock (notify version of *_clear_flush helpers do call the
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range). But that notification is not necessary
in all cases.
This patch removes almost all cases where it is useless to have a call
to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range before
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end. It also adds documentation in all
those cases explaining why.
Below is a more in depth analysis of why this is fine to do this:
For secondary TLB (non CPU TLB) like IOMMU TLB or device TLB (when
device use thing like ATS/PASID to get the IOMMU to walk the CPU page
table to access a process virtual address space). There is only 2 cases
when you need to notify those secondary TLB while holding page table
lock when clearing a pte/pmd:
A) page backing address is free before mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end
B) a page table entry is updated to point to a new page (COW, write fault
on zero page, __replace_page(), ...)
Case A is obvious you do not want to take the risk for the device to write
to a page that might now be used by something completely different.
Case B is more subtle. For correctness it requires the following sequence
to happen:
- take page table lock
- clear page table entry and notify (pmd/pte_huge_clear_flush_notify())
- set page table entry to point to new page
If clearing the page table entry is not followed by a notify before setting
the new pte/pmd value then you can break memory model like C11 or C++11 for
the device.
Consider the following scenario (device use a feature similar to ATS/
PASID):
Two address addrA and addrB such that |addrA - addrB| >= PAGE_SIZE we
assume they are write protected for COW (other case of B apply too).
[Time N] -----------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {try to write to addrA}
CPU-thread-1 {try to write to addrB}
CPU-thread-2 {}
CPU-thread-3 {}
DEV-thread-0 {read addrA and populate device TLB}
DEV-thread-2 {read addrB and populate device TLB}
[Time N+1] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrA)}}
CPU-thread-1 {COW_step0: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start(addrB)}}
CPU-thread-2 {}
CPU-thread-3 {}
DEV-thread-0 {}
DEV-thread-2 {}
[Time N+2] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrA}}
CPU-thread-1 {COW_step1: {update page table point to new page for addrB}}
CPU-thread-2 {}
CPU-thread-3 {}
DEV-thread-0 {}
DEV-thread-2 {}
[Time N+3] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {preempted}
CPU-thread-1 {preempted}
CPU-thread-2 {write to addrA which is a write to new page}
CPU-thread-3 {}
DEV-thread-0 {}
DEV-thread-2 {}
[Time N+3] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {preempted}
CPU-thread-1 {preempted}
CPU-thread-2 {}
CPU-thread-3 {write to addrB which is a write to new page}
DEV-thread-0 {}
DEV-thread-2 {}
[Time N+4] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {preempted}
CPU-thread-1 {COW_step3: {mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(addrB)}}
CPU-thread-2 {}
CPU-thread-3 {}
DEV-thread-0 {}
DEV-thread-2 {}
[Time N+5] ---------------------------------------------------------------
CPU-thread-0 {preempted}
CPU-thread-1 {}
CPU-thread-2 {}
CPU-thread-3 {}
DEV-thread-0 {read addrA from old page}
DEV-thread-2 {read addrB from new page}
So here because at time N+2 the clear page table entry was not pair with a
notification to invalidate the secondary TLB, the device see the new value
for addrB before seing the new value for addrA. This break total memory
ordering for the device.
When changing a pte to write protect or to point to a new write protected
page with same content (KSM) it is ok to delay invalidate_range callback
to mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end() outside the page table lock. This
is true even if the thread doing page table update is preempted right
after releasing page table lock before calling
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end
Thanks to Andrea for thinking of a problematic scenario for COW.

for_each_memblock_type macro function relies on idx variable defined in
the caller context. Silent macro arguments are almost always wrong
thing to do. They make code harder to read and easier to get wrong.
Let's use an explicit iterator parameter for for_each_memblock_type and
make the code more obious. This patch is a mere cleanup and it
shouldn't introduce any functional change.

Joonsoo has noticed that "mm: drop migrate type checks from
has_unmovable_pages" would break CMA allocator because it relies on
has_unmovable_pages returning false even for CMA pageblocks which in
fact don't have to be movable:
alloc_contig_range
start_isolate_page_range
set_migratetype_isolate
has_unmovable_pages
This is a result of the code sharing between CMA and memory hotplug
while each one has a different idea of what has_unmovable_pages should
return. This is unfortunate but fixing it properly would require a lot
of code duplication.
Fix the issue by introducing the requested migrate type argument and
special case MIGRATE_CMA case where CMA page blocks are handled
properly. This will work for memory hotplug because it requires
MIGRATE_MOVABLE.

When SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO swapped-in pages are shared by several
processes, it can cause unnecessary memory wastage by skipping swap
cache. Because, with swapin fault by read, they could share a page if
the page were in swap cache. Thus, it avoids allocating same content
new pages.
This patch makes the swapcache skipping work only if the swap pte is
non-sharable.
