kernfs_node->parent and ->name are currently marked as "published"
indicating that kernfs users may access them directly; however, those
fields may get updated by kernfs_rename[_ns]() and unrestricted access
may lead to erroneous values or oops.
Protect ->parent and ->name updates with a irq-safe spinlock
kernfs_rename_lock and implement the following accessors for these
fields.
* kernfs_name() - format the node's name into the specified buffer
* kernfs_path() - format the node's path into the specified buffer
* pr_cont_kernfs_name() - pr_cont a node's name (doesn't need buffer)
* pr_cont_kernfs_path() - pr_cont a node's path (doesn't need buffer)
* kernfs_get_parent() - pin and return a node's parent
All can be called under any context. The recursive sysfs_pathname()
in fs/sysfs/dir.c is replaced with kernfs_path() and
sysfs_rename_dir_ns() is updated to use kernfs_get_parent() instead of
dereferencing parent directly.

kernfs_rename()
Implement helpers to determine node from dentry and root from
super_block. Also add a kernfs_rename_ns() wrapper which assumes NULL
namespace. These generally make sense and will be used by cgroup.

A write to a kernfs_node is buffered through a kernel buffer. Writes
<= PAGE_SIZE are performed atomically, while larger ones are executed
in PAGE_SIZE chunks. While this is enough for sysfs, cgroup which is
scheduled to be converted to use kernfs needs a bit more control over
it.
This patch adds kernfs_ops->atomic_write_len. If not set (zero), the
behavior stays the same. If set, writes upto the size are executed
atomically and larger writes are rejected with -E2BIG.
A different implementation strategy would be allowing configuring
chunking size while making the original write size available to the
write method; however, such strategy, while being more complicated,
doesn't really buy anything. If the write implementation has to
handle chunking, the specific chunk size shouldn't matter all that
much.

Currently, kernfs_nodes are made visible to userland on creation,
which makes it difficult for kernfs users to atomically succeed or
fail creation of multiple nodes. In addition, if something fails
after creating some nodes, the created nodes might already be in use
and their active refs need to be drained for removal, which has the
potential to introduce tricky reverse locking dependency on active_ref
depending on how the error path is synchronized.
This patch introduces per-root flag KERNFS_ROOT_CREATE_DEACTIVATED.
If set, all nodes under the root are created in the deactivated state
and stay invisible to userland until explicitly enabled by the new
kernfs_activate() API. Also, nodes which have never been activated
are guaranteed to bypass draining on removal thus allowing error paths
to not worry about lockding dependency on active_ref draining.

kernfs_iop_lookup(), kernfs_dir_pos() and kernfs_dir_next_pos() were
missing kernfs_active() tests before using the found kernfs_node. As
deactivated state is currently visible only while a node is being
removed, this doesn't pose an actual problem. e.g. lookup succeeding
on a deactivated node doesn't harm anything as the eventual file
operations are gonna fail and those failures are indistinguishible
from the cases in which the lookups had happened before the node was
deactivated.
However, we're gonna allow new nodes to be created deactivated and
then activated explicitly by the kernfs user when it sees fit. This
is to support atomically making multiple nodes visible to userland and
thus those nodes must not be visible to userland before activated.
Let's plug the lookup and readdir holes so that deactivated nodes are
invisible to userland.

kernfs_dir_ops are currently being invoked without any active
reference, which makes it tricky for the invoked operations to
determine whether the objects associated those nodes are safe to
access and will remain that way for the duration of such operations.
kernfs already has active_ref mechanism to deal with this which makes
the removal of a given node the synchronization point for gating the
file operations. There's no reason for dir_ops to be any different.
Update the dir_ops handling so that active_ref is held while the
dir_ops are executing. This guarantees that while a dir_ops is
executing the target nodes stay alive.
As kernfs_dir_ops doesn't have any in-kernel user at this point, this
doesn't affect anybody.

driver-core now supports synchrnous self-deletion of attributes and
the asynchrnous removal mechanism is scheduled for removal. Use it
instead of device_schedule_callback().
* Conversions in arch/s390/pci/pci_sysfs.c and
drivers/s390/block/dcssblk.c are straightforward.
* drivers/s390/cio/ccwgroup.c is a bit more tricky because
ccwgroup_notifier() was (ab)using device_schedule_callback() to
purely obtain a process context to kick off ungroup operation which
may block from a notifier callback.
Rename ccwgroup_ungroup_callback() to ccwgroup_ungroup() and make it
take ccwgroup_device * instead. The new function is now called
directly from ccwgroup_ungroup_store().
ccwgroup_notifier() chain is updated to explicitly bounce through
ccwgroup_device->ungroup_work. This also removes possible failure

Sometimes it's necessary to implement a node which wants to delete
nodes including itself. This isn't straightforward because of kernfs
active reference. While a file operation is in progress, an active
reference is held and kernfs_remove() waits for all such references to
drain before completing. For a self-deleting node, this is a deadlock
as kernfs_remove() ends up waiting for an active reference that itself
is sitting on top of.
This currently is worked around in the sysfs layer using
sysfs_schedule_callback() which makes such removals asynchronous.
While it works, it's rather cumbersome and inherently breaks
synchronicity of the operation - the file operation which triggered
the operation may complete before the removal is finished (or even
started) and the removal may fail asynchronously. If a removal
operation is immmediately followed by another operation which expects
the specific name to be available (e.g. removal followed by rename
onto the same name), there's no way to make the latter operation
reliable.
The thing is there's no inherent reason for this to be asynchrnous.
All that's necessary to do this synchronous is a dedicated operation
which drops its own active ref and deactivates self. This patch
implements kernfs_remove_self() and its wrappers in sysfs and driver
core. kernfs_remove_self() is to be called from one of the file
operations, drops the active ref the task is holding, removes the self
node, and restores active ref to the dead node so that the ref is
balanced afterwards. __kernfs_remove() is updated so that it takes an
early exit if the target node is already fully removed so that the
active ref restored by kernfs_remove_self() after removal doesn't
confuse the deactivation path.
This makes implementing self-deleting nodes very easy. The normal
removal path doesn't even need to be changed to use
kernfs_remove_self() for the self-deleting node. The method can
invoke kernfs_remove_self() on itself before proceeding the normal
removal path. kernfs_remove() invoked on the node by the normal
deletion path will simply be ignored.
This will replace sysfs_schedule_callback(). A subtle feature of
sysfs_schedule_callback() is that it collapses multiple invocations -
even if multiple removals are triggered, the removal callback is run
only once. An equivalent effect can be achieved by testing the return
value of kernfs_remove_self() - only the one which gets %true return
value should proceed with actual deletion. All other instances of
kernfs_remove_self() will wait till the enclosing kernfs operation
which invoked the winning instance of kernfs_remove_self() finishes
and then return %false. This trivially makes all users of
kernfs_remove_self() automatically show correct synchronous behavior
even when there are multiple concurrent operations - all "echo 1 >
delete" instances will finish only after the whole operation is
completed by one of the instances.
Note that manipulation of active ref is implemented in separate public
functions - kernfs_[un]break_active_protection().
kernfs_remove_self() is the only user at the moment but this will be
used to cater to more complex cases.
v2: For !CONFIG_SYSFS, dummy version kernfs_remove_self() was missing
and sysfs_remove_file_self() had incorrect return type. Fix it.

KERNFS_REMOVED is used to mark half-initialized and dying nodes so
that they don't show up in lookups and deny adding new nodes under or
renaming it; however, its role overlaps that of deactivation.
It's necessary to deny addition of new children while removal is in
progress; however, this role considerably intersects with deactivation
- KERNFS_REMOVED prevents new children while deactivation prevents new
file operations. There's no reason to have them separate making
things more complex than necessary.
This patch removes KERNFS_REMOVED.
* Instead of KERNFS_REMOVED, each node now starts its life
deactivated. This means that we now use both atomic_add() and
atomic_sub() on KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS, which is INT_MIN. The compiler
generates an overflow warnings when negating INT_MIN as the negation
can't be represented as a positive number. Nothing is actually
broken but let's bump BIAS by one to avoid the warnings for archs
which negates the subtrahend..
* A new helper kernfs_active() which tests whether kn->active >= 0 is
added for convenience and lockdep annotation. All KERNFS_REMOVED
tests are replaced with negated kernfs_active() tests.
* __kernfs_remove() is updated to deactivate, but not drain, all nodes
in the subtree instead of setting KERNFS_REMOVED. This removes
deactivation from kernfs_deactivate(), which is now renamed to
kernfs_drain().
* Sanity check on KERNFS_REMOVED in kernfs_put() is replaced with
checks on the active ref.
* Some comment style updates in the affected area.
v2: Reordered before removal path restructuring. kernfs_active()
dropped and kernfs_get/put_active() used instead. RB_EMPTY_NODE()
used in the lookup paths.
v3: Reverted most of v2 except for creating a new node with
KN_DEACTIVATED_BIAS.

There currently are two mechanisms gating active ref lockdep
annotations - KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag and KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF type mask.
The former disables lockdep annotations in kernfs_get/put_active()
while the latter disables all of kernfs_deactivate().
While KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF also behaves as an optimization to skip the
deactivation step for non-file nodes, the benefit is marginal and it
needlessly diverges code paths. Let's drop KERNFS_ACTIVE_REF.
While at it, add a test helper kernfs_lockdep() to test KERNFS_LOCKDEP
flag so that it's more convenient and the related code can be compiled
out when not enabled.
v2: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor
KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag"). As the earlier patch already added
KERNFS_LOCKDEP tests to kernfs_deactivate(), those additions are
dropped from this patch and the existing ones are simply converted
to kernfs_lockdep().

kernfs_addrm_cxt and the accompanying kernfs_addrm_start/finish() were
added because there were operations which should be performed outside
kernfs_mutex after adding and removing kernfs_nodes. The necessary
operations were recorded in kernfs_addrm_cxt and performed by
kernfs_addrm_finish(); however, after the recent changes which
relocated deactivation and unmapping so that they're performed
directly during removal, the only operation kernfs_addrm_finish()
performs is kernfs_put(), which can be moved inside the removal path
too.
This patch moves the kernfs_put() of the base ref to __kernfs_remove()
and remove kernfs_addrm_cxt and kernfs_addrm_start/finish().
* kernfs_add_one() is updated to grab and release kernfs_mutex itself.
sysfs_addrm_start/finish() invocations around it are removed from
all users.
* __kernfs_remove() puts an unlinked node directly instead of chaining
it to kernfs_addrm_cxt. Its callers are updated to grab and release
kernfs_mutex instead of calling kernfs_addrm_start/finish() around
it.

kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of
the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently
is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race
problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are
multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its
addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion
before returning.
It can be easily fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation
from kernfs_addrm_finish() to kernfs_deactivated(). The function may
be called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.

The recursive nature of kernfs_remove() means that, even if
kernfs_remove() is not allowed to be called multiple times on the same
node, there may be race conditions between removal of parent and its
descendants. While we can claim that kernfs_remove() shouldn't be
called on one of the descendants while the removal of an ancestor is
in progress, such rule is unnecessarily restrictive and very difficult
to enforce. It's better to simply allow invoking kernfs_remove() as
the caller sees fit as long as the caller ensures that the node is
accessible.
The current behavior in such situations is broken. Whoever enters
removal path first takes the node off the hierarchy and then
deactivates. Following removers either return as soon as it notices
that it's not the first one or can't even find the target node as it
has already been removed from the hierarchy. In both cases, the
following removers may finish prematurely while the nodes which should
be removed and drained are still being processed by the first one.
This patch restructures so that multiple removers, whether through
recursion or direction invocation, always follow the following rules.
* When there are multiple concurrent removers, only one puts the base
ref.
* Regardless of which one puts the base ref, all removers are blocked
until the target node is fully deactivated and removed.
To achieve the above, removal path now first marks all descendants
including self REMOVED and then deactivates and unlinks leftmost
descendant one-by-one. kernfs_deactivate() is called directly from
__kernfs_removal() and drops and regrabs kernfs_mutex for each
descendant to drain active refs. As this means that multiple removers
can enter kernfs_deactivate() for the same node, the function is
updated so that it can handle multiple deactivators of the same node -
only one actually deactivates but all wait till drain completion.
The restructured removal path guarantees that a removed node gets
unlinked only after the node is deactivated and drained. Combined
with proper multiple deactivator handling, this guarantees that any
invocation of kernfs_remove() returns only after the node itself and
all its descendants are deactivated, drained and removed.
v2: Draining separated into a separate loop (used to be in the same
loop as unlink) and done from __kernfs_deactivate(). This is to
allow exposing deactivation as a separate interface later.
Root node removal was broken in v1 patch. Fixed.
v3: Revert most of v2 except for root node removal fix and
simplification of KERNFS_REMOVED setting loop.
v4: Refreshed on top of ("kernfs: make kernfs_deactivate() honor
KERNFS_LOCKDEP flag").

kernfs_node->u.completion is used to notify deactivation completion
from kernfs_put_active() to kernfs_deactivate(). We now allow
multiple racing removals of the same node and the current removal
scheme is no longer correct - kernfs_remove() invocation may return
before the node is properly deactivated if it races against another
removal. The removal path will be restructured to address the issue.
To help such restructure which requires supporting multiple waiters,
this patch replaces kernfs_node->u.completion with
kernfs_root->deactivate_waitq. This makes deactivation event
notifications share a per-root waitqueue_head; however, the wait path
is quite cold and this will also allow shaving one pointer off
kernfs_node.

dma_buf_map_attachment and dma_buf_vmap can return NULL or
ERR_PTR on a error. This encourages a common buggy pattern in
callers:
sgt = dma_buf_map_attachment(attach, DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL);
if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(sgt))
return PTR_ERR(sgt);
This causes the caller to return 0 on an error. IS_ERR_OR_NULL
is almost always a sign of poorly-defined error handling.
This patch converts dma_buf_map_attachment to always return
ERR_PTR, and fixes the callers that incorrectly handled NULL.
There are a few more callers that were not checking for NULL
at all, which would have dereferenced a NULL pointer later.
There are also a few more callers that correctly handled NULL
and ERR_PTR differently, I left those alone but they could also
be modified to delete the NULL check.
This patch also converts dma_buf_vmap to always return NULL.
All the callers to dma_buf_vmap only check for NULL, and would
have dereferenced an ERR_PTR and panic'd if one was ever
returned. This is not consistent with the rest of the dma buf
APIs, but matches the expectations of all of the callers.

HPFS needs to load 4 consecutive 512-byte sectors when accessing the
directory nodes or bitmaps. We can't switch to 2048-byte block size
because files are allocated in the units of 512-byte sectors.
Previously, the driver would allocate a 2048-byte area using kmalloc,
copy the data from four buffers to this area and eventually copy them
back if they were modified.
In the current implementation of the buffer cache, buffers are allocated
in the pagecache. That means that 4 consecutive 512-byte buffers are
stored in consecutive areas in the kernel address space. So, we don't
need to allocate extra memory and copy the content of the buffers there.
This patch optimizes the code to avoid copying the buffers. It checks
if the four buffers are stored in contiguous memory - if they are not,
it falls back to allocating a 2048-byte area and copying data there.

Previously, hpfs scanned all bitmaps each time the user asked for free
space using statfs. This patch changes it so that hpfs scans the
bitmaps only once, remembes the free space and on next invocation of
statfs it returns the value instantly.
New versions of wine are hammering on the statfs syscall very heavily,
making some games unplayable when they're stored on hpfs, with load
times in minutes.
This should be backported to the stable kernels because it fixes

f8dae00684d678afa13041ef170cecfd1297ed40: parisc: Ensure full cache coherency for kmap/kunmap
caused negative caching side-effects, e.g. hanging processes with expect and
too many inequivalent alias messages from flush_dcache_page() on Debian 5 systems.
This patch now partly reverts it and has been in production use on our debian buildd
makeservers since a week without any major problems.

The built-in ROM fonts lack many necessary ASCII characters, which is
why it makes sens to prefer the Linux fonts instead if they are
available. This makes consoles on STI graphics cards which are not
supported by the stifb driver (e.g. Visualize FXe) looks much nicer.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"Here's a set of patches for (hopefully) -rc1. Some of them are fixes,
but a good number of them also do things such as enable new drivers in
the defconfigs for platforms that have such devices, increases
coverage of the multiplatform defconfig and some DTS changes that
plumbs up some of the devices that now have bindings and driver
support.
The commit dates are recent; we've mostly collected these fixes in the
last few days but I also had to rebuild the branch yesterday to sort
out some internal conflicts which reset the timestamps. The changes
should have been tested by each platform maintainer already (and few
of them have cross-platform impact) so I'm personally not too
concerned by it at this time"

Both proc files are writeable and used for configuring cells. But
there is missing correct mode flag for writeable files. Without
this patch both proc files are read only.
[ It turns out they aren't really read-only, since root can write to
them even if the write bit isn't set due to CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE ]

With commit d8d14bd09cdd ("fs/compat: fix lookup_dcookie() parameter
handling") I changed the type of the len parameter of the
lookup_dcookie() syscall.
However I missed that there was still a stale declaration in
arch/tile/.. which now causes a compile error on tile:
In file included from fs/dcookies.c:28:0:
include/linux/compat.h:425:17: error: conflicting types for 'compat_sys_lookup_dcookie'
fs/dcookies.c:207:1: error: conflicting types for 'compat_sys_lookup_dcookie'
Simply remove the declaration in the tile architecture, which is only a
leftover from before the different compat lookup_dcookie() versions have
been merged. The correct declaration is now in include/linux/compat.h
The build error was reported by Fenguang's build bot.

Revert commit ef83b0781a73 "PCI: Remove from bus_list and release
resources in pci_release_dev()" that made some nasty race conditions
become possible. For example, if a Thunderbolt link is unplugged
and then replugged immediately, the pci_release_dev() resulting from
the hot-remove code path may be racing with the hot-add code path
which after that commit causes various kinds of breakage to happen
(up to and including a hard crash of the whole system).
Moreover, the problem that commit ef83b0781a73 attempted to address
cannot happen any more after commit 8a4c5c329de7 "PCI: Check parent
kobject in pci_destroy_dev()", because pci_destroy_dev() will now
return immediately if it has already been executed for the given
device.
Note, however, that the invocation of msi_remove_pci_irq_vectors()
removed by commit ef83b0781a73 from pci_free_resources() along with
the other changes made by it is not added back because of subsequent
code changes depending on that modification.

TI_EDMA fell out of automatically selected options in the multi_v7
defconfig due to a select being removed from the davinci Kconfig entry. So
we need to re-enable explicitly to not regress some platforms.
The rest is just the result of running 'make multi_v7_defconfig + make
savedefconfig' to remove entries that are no longer needed due to changed
dependencies/selects or defaults.
