Pull random updates from Ted Ts'o:
"Add wait_for_random_bytes() and get_random_*_wait() functions so that
callers can more safely get random bytes if they can block until the
CRNG is initialized.
Also print a warning if get_random_*() is called before the CRNG is
initialized. By default, only one single-line warning will be printed
per boot. If CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM is defined, then a
warning will be printed for each function which tries to get random
bytes before the CRNG is initialized. This can get spammy for certain
architecture types, so it is not enabled by default"

Pull ->s_options removal from Al Viro:
"Preparations for fsmount/fsopen stuff (coming next cycle). Everything
gets moved to explicit ->show_options(), killing ->s_options off +
some cosmetic bits around fs/namespace.c and friends. Basically, the
stuff needed to work with fsmount series with minimum of conflicts
with other work.
It's not strictly required for this merge window, but it would reduce
the PITA during the coming cycle, so it would be nice to have those
bits and pieces out of the way"

Using strscpy was wrong because FORTIFY_SOURCE is passing the maximum
possible size of the outermost object, but strscpy defines the count
parameter as the exact buffer size, so this could copy past the end of
the source. This would still be wrong with the planned usage of
__builtin_object_size(p, 1) for intra-object overflow checks since it's
the maximum possible size of the specified object with no guarantee of
it being that large.
Reuse of the fortified functions like this currently makes the runtime
error reporting less precise but that can be improved later on.

The value written to fail-nth file is parsed as 0-based. Parsing as
one-based is more natural to understand and it enables to cancel the
previous setup by simply writing '0'.
This change also converts task->fail_nth from signed to unsigned int.

Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui:
- Improve thermal cpu_cooling interaction with cpufreq core.
The cpu_cooling driver is designed to use CPU frequency scaling to
avoid high thermal states for a platform. But it wasn't glued really
well with cpufreq core.
For example clipped-cpus is copied from the policy structure and its
much better to use the policy->cpus (or related_cpus) fields directly
as they may have got updated. Not that things were broken before this
series, but they can be optimized a bit more.
This series tries to improve interactions between cpufreq core and
cpu_cooling driver and does some fixes/cleanups to the cpu_cooling
driver. (Viresh Kumar)

Hyper-V identifies vCPUs by Virtual Processor Index, which can be
queried via HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX msr. It is defined by the spec as a
sequential number which can't exceed the maximum number of vCPUs per VM.
APIC ids can be sparse and thus aren't a valid replacement for VP
indices.
Current KVM uses its internal vcpu index as VP_INDEX. However, to make
it predictable and persistent across VM migrations, the userspace has to
control the value of VP_INDEX.
This patch achieves that, by storing vp_index explicitly on vcpu, and
allowing HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX to be set from the host side. For
compatibility it's initialized to KVM vcpu index. Also a few variables
are renamed to make clear distinction betweed this Hyper-V vp_index and
KVM vcpu_id (== APIC id). Besides, a new capability,
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_VP_INDEX, is added to allow the userspace to skip
attempting msr writes where unsupported, to avoid spamming error logs.

Transparent State Migration copies a client's lease state from the
server where a filesystem used to reside to the server where it now
resides. When an NFSv4.1 client first contacts that destination
server, it uses EXCHANGE_ID to detect trunking relationships.
The lease that was copied there is returned to that client, but the
destination server sets EXCHGID4_FLAG_CONFIRMED_R when replying to
the client. This is because the lease was confirmed on the source
server (before it was copied).
Normally, when CONFIRMED_R is set, a client purges the lease and
creates a new one. However, that throws away the entire benefit of
Transparent State Migration.
Therefore, the client must not purge that lease when it is possible
that Transparent State Migration has occurred.

If the page cache is being flushed, then we want to ensure that we
do start a commit once the pages are done being flushed.
If we just wait until all I/O is done to that file, we can end up
livelocking until the balance_dirty_pages() mechanism puts its
foot down and forces I/O to stop.
So instead we do more or less the same thing that O_DIRECT does,
and set up a counter to tell us when the flush is done,

An interrupted rename will leave the old dentry behind if the rename
succeeds. Fix this by forcing a lookup the next time through
->d_revalidate.
A previous attempt at solving this problem took the approach to complete
the work of the rename asynchronously, however that approach was wrong
since it would allow the d_move() to occur after the directory's i_mutex
had been dropped by the original process.

struct rpc_procinfo contains function pointers, and marking it as

p_count is the only writeable memeber of struct rpc_procinfo, which is
a good candidate to be const-ified as it contains function pointers.
This patch moves it into out out struct rpc_procinfo, and into a
separate writable array that is pointed to by struct rpc_version and
indexed by p_statidx.

There is a flaw in the Hyper-V SynIC implementation in KVM: when message
page or event flags page is enabled by setting the corresponding msr,
KVM zeroes it out. This is problematic because on migration the
corresponding MSRs are loaded on the destination, so the content of
those pages is lost.
This went unnoticed so far because the only user of those pages was
in-KVM hyperv synic timers, which could continue working despite that
zeroing.
Newer QEMU uses those pages for Hyper-V VMBus implementation, and
zeroing them breaks the migration.
Besides, in newer QEMU the content of those pages is fully managed by
QEMU, so zeroing them is undesirable even when writing the MSRs from the
guest side.
To support this new scheme, introduce a new capability,
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2, which, when enabled, makes sure that the synic
pages aren't zeroed out in KVM.

Currently the writeback statistics code uses a percpu counters to hold
various statistics. Furthermore we have 2 families of functions - those
which disable local irq and those which doesn't and whose names begin
with double underscore. However, they both end up calling
__add_wb_stats which in turn calls percpu_counter_add_batch which is
already irq-safe.
Exploiting this fact allows to eliminated the __wb_* functions since
they don't add any further protection than we already have.
Furthermore, refactor the wb_* function to call __add_wb_stat directly
without the irq-disabling dance. This will likely result in better
runtime of code which deals with modifying the stat counters.
While at it also document why percpu_counter_add_batch is in fact
preempt and irq-safe since at least 3 people got confused.

Page migration (for memory hotplug, soft_offline_page or mbind) needs to
allocate a new memory. This can trigger an oom killer if the target
memory is depleated. Although quite unlikely, still possible,
especially for the memory hotplug (offlining of memoery).
Up to now we didn't really have reasonable means to back off.
__GFP_NORETRY can fail just too easily and __GFP_THISNODE sticks to a
single node and that is not suitable for all callers.
But now that we have __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL we should use it. It is
preferable to fail the migration than disrupt the system by killing some
processes.

semantic
__GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
the page allocator. This has been true but only for allocations
requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER. It has been always
ignored for smaller sizes. This is a bit unfortunate because there is
no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
semantic. Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
success. This will work independent of the order and overrides the
default allocator behavior. Page allocator users have several levels of
guarantee vs. cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
aggressive reclaim
- GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
the request is a performance optimization and there is another
fallback for a slow path.
- (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
context with an expensive slow path fallback.
- GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
_default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
(e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
is not invoked.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
won't be triggered.
- GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
because they already had their semantic. No new users are added.
__alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.
