This commit switches synchronize_sched_expedited() from stop_one_cpu_nowait()
to smp_call_function_single(), thus moving from an IPI and a pair of
context switches to an IPI and a single pass through the scheduler.
Of course, if the scheduler actually does decide to switch to a different
task, there will still be a pair of context switches, but there would
likely have been a pair of context switches anyway, just a bit later.

This commit converts the rcu_data structure's ->cpu_no_qs field
to a union. The bytewise side of this union allows individual access
to indications as to whether this CPU needs to find a quiescent state
for a normal (.norm) and/or expedited (.exp) grace period. The setwise
side of the union allows testing whether or not a quiescent state is
needed at all, for either type of grace period.
For now, only .norm is used. A later commit will introduce the expedited
usage.

This commit inverts the sense of the rcu_data structure's ->passed_quiesce
field and renames it to ->cpu_no_qs. This will allow a later commit to
use an "aggregate OR" operation to test expedited as well as normal grace
periods without added overhead.

An upcoming commit needs to invert the sense of the ->passed_quiesce
rcu_data structure field, so this commit is taking this opportunity
to clarify things a bit by renaming ->qs_pending to ->core_needs_qs.
So if !rdp->core_needs_qs, then this CPU need not concern itself with
quiescent states, in particular, it need not acquire its leaf rcu_node
structure's ->lock to check. Otherwise, it needs to report the next
quiescent state.

Currently, synchronize_sched_expedited() uses a single global counter
to track the number of remaining context switches that the current
expedited grace period must wait on. This is problematic on large
systems, where the resulting memory contention can be pathological.
This commit therefore makes synchronize_sched_expedited() instead use
the combining tree in the same manner as synchronize_rcu_expedited(),
keeping memory contention down to a dull roar.
This commit creates a temporary function sync_sched_exp_select_cpus()
that is very similar to sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus(). A later commit
will consolidate these two functions, which becomes possible when
synchronize_sched_expedited() switches from stop_one_cpu_nowait() to
smp_call_function_single().

The current preemptible-RCU expedited grace-period algorithm invokes
synchronize_sched_expedited() to enqueue all tasks currently running
in a preemptible-RCU read-side critical section, then waits for all the
->blkd_tasks lists to drain. This works, but results in both an IPI and
a double context switch even on CPUs that do not happen to be running
in a preemptible RCU read-side critical section.
This commit implements a new algorithm that causes less OS jitter.
This new algorithm IPIs all online CPUs that are not idle (from an
RCU perspective), but refrains from self-IPIs. If a CPU receiving
this IPI is not in a preemptible RCU read-side critical section (or
is just now exiting one), it pushes quiescence up the rcu_node tree,
otherwise, it sets a flag that will be handled by the upcoming outermost
rcu_read_unlock(), which will then push quiescence up the tree.
The expedited grace period must of course wait on any pre-existing blocked
readers, and newly blocked readers must be queued carefully based on
the state of both the normal and the expedited grace periods. This
new queueing approach also avoids the need to update boost state,
courtesy of the fact that blocked tasks are no longer ever migrated to
the root rcu_node structure.

This is a nearly pure code-movement commit, moving rcu_report_exp_rnp(),
sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done(), and rcu_preempted_readers_exp() so
that later commits can make synchronize_sched_expedited() use them.
The non-code-movement portion of this commit tags rcu_report_exp_rnp()
as __maybe_unused to avoid build errors when CONFIG_PREEMPT=n.

Now that there is an ->expedited_wq waitqueue in each rcu_state structure,
there is no need for the sync_rcu_preempt_exp_wq global variable. This
commit therefore substitutes ->expedited_wq for sync_rcu_preempt_exp_wq.
It also initializes ->expedited_wq only once at boot instead of at the
start of each expedited grace period.

In kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, synchronize_rcu_expedited()
invokes synchronize_sched_expedited() while holding RCU-preempt's
root rcu_node structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex, which is acquired after
the rcu_data structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex. The first thing that
synchronize_sched_expedited() will do is acquire RCU-sched's rcu_data
structure's ->exp_funnel_mutex. There is no danger of an actual deadlock
because the locking order is always from RCU-preempt's expedited mutexes
to those of RCU-sched. Unfortunately, lockdep considers both rcu_data
structures' ->exp_funnel_mutex to be in the same lock class and therefore
reports a deadlock cycle.
This commit silences this false positive by placing RCU-sched's rcu_data
structures' ->exp_funnel_mutex locks into their own lock class.

Code like this in inline functions confuses some recent versions of gcc:
const int n = const-expr;

For more details, see:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=67055#c13
This compiler bug results in the following failure after 114b7fd4b (rcu:

Commit 505a666ee3fc ("writeback: plug writeback in wb_writeback() and
writeback_inodes_wb()") has us holding a plug during writeback_sb_inodes,
which increases the merge rate when relatively contiguous small files
are written by the filesystem. It helps both on flash and spindles.
For an fs_mark workload creating 4K files in parallel across 8 drives,
this commit improves performance ~9% more by unplugging before calling
cond_resched(). cond_resched() doesn't trigger an implicit unplug, so
explicitly getting the IO down to the device before scheduling reduces
latencies for anyone waiting on clean pages.
It also cuts down on how often we use kblockd to unplug, which means
less work bouncing from one workqueue to another.
Many more details about how we got here:

The various definitions of __pfn_to_phys() have been consolidated to
use a generic macro in include/asm-generic/memory_model.h. This hit
mainline in the form of 012dcef3f058 "mm: move __phys_to_pfn and
__pfn_to_phys to asm/generic/memory_model.h". When the generic macro
was implemented the type cast to phys_addr_t was dropped which caused
boot regressions on ARM platforms with more than 4GB of memory and
LPAE enabled.
It was suggested to use PFN_PHYS() defined in include/linux/pfn.h
as provides the correct logic and avoids further duplication.

Some of the device files are required to be user accessible for PSM while
most should remain accessible only by root.
Add a parameter to hfi1_cdev_init which controls if the user should have access
to this device which places it in a different class with the appropriate
devnode callback.
In addition set the devnode call back for the existing class to be a bit more
explicit for those permissions.
Finally remove the unnecessary null check before class_destroy

Commit 2ee507c47293 ("sched: Add function single_task_running to let a task
check if it is the only task running on a cpu") referenced the current
runqueue with the smp_processor_id. When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled,
that is only allowed if preemption is disabled or the currrent task is
bound to the local cpu (e.g. kernel worker).
With commit f78195129963 ("kvm: add halt_poll_ns module parameter") KVM
calls single_task_running. If CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled that
generates a lot of kernel messages.
To avoid adding preemption in that cases, as it would limit the usefulness,
we change single_task_running to access directly the cpu local runqueue.

Some string_get_size() calls (e.g.:
string_get_size(1, 512, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...)
string_get_size(15, 64, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...)
) result in an infinite loop. The problem is that if size is equal to
divisor[units]/blk_size and is smaller than divisor[units] we'll end
up with size == 0 when we start doing sf_cap calculations:
For string_get_size(1, 512, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...) case:
...
remainder = do_div(size, divisor[units]); -> size is 0, remainder is 1
remainder *= blk_size; -> remainder is 512
...
size *= blk_size; -> size is still 0
size += remainder / divisor[units]; -> size is still 0
The caller causing the issue is sd_read_capacity(), the problem was
noticed on Hyper-V, such weird size was reported by host when scanning
collides with device removal. This is probably a separate issue worth
fixing, this patch is intended to prevent the library routine from
infinite looping.

The shadow which correspond 16 bytes memory may span 2 or 3 bytes. If
the memory is aligned on 8, then the shadow takes only 2 bytes. So we
check "shadow_first_bytes" is enough, and need not to call
"memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 15);". But the code "if
(likely(!last_byte))" is wrong judgement.
e.g. addr=0, so last_byte = 15 & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK = 7, then the code
will continue to call "memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 15);"

When bio bounce is involved, one new bio and its biovecs are
cloned from the comming bio, which can be one fast-cloned bio
from upper layer(such as dm).
So it is obviously wrong to assume the start index of the coming(
original) bio's io vector is zero, which can be any value between
0 and (bi_max_vecs - 1), especially in case of bio split.

biovecs has become immutable since v3.13, so it isn't necessary
to allocate biovecs for the new cloned bios, then we can save
one extra biovecs allocation/copy, and the allocation is often
not fixed-length and a bit more expensive.
For example, if the 'max_sectors_kb' of null blk's queue is set
as 16(32 sectors) via sysfs just for making more splits, this patch
can increase throught about ~70% in the sequential read test over
null_blk(direct io, bs: 1M).

This patch removes config option of KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS,
and like other ARCHs, just choose the maximum allowed
value from hardware, and follows the reasons:
1) from distribution view, the option has to be
defined as the max allowed value because it need to
meet all kinds of virtulization applications and
need to support most of SoCs;
2) using a bigger value doesn't introduce extra memory
consumption, and the help text in Kconfig isn't accurate
because kvm_vpu structure isn't allocated until request
of creating VCPU is sent from QEMU;
3) the main effect is that the field of vcpus[] in 'struct kvm'
becomes a bit bigger(sizeof(void *) per vcpu) and need more cache
lines to hold the structure, but 'struct kvm' is one generic struct,
and it has worked well on other ARCHs already in this way. Also,
the world switch frequecy is often low, for example, it is ~2000
when running kernel building load in VM from APM xgene KVM host,
so the effect is very small, and the difference can't be observed
in my test at all.

Although the ThumbEE registers and traps were present in earlier
versions of the v8 architecture, it was retrospectively removed and so
we can do the same.
Whilst this breaks migrating a guest started on a previous version of
the kernel, it is much better to kill these (non existent) registers
as soon as possible.

When running a guest with the architected timer disabled (with QEMU and
the kernel_irqchip=off option, for example), it is important to make
sure the timer gets turned off. Otherwise, the guest may try to
enable it anyway, leading to a screaming HW interrupt.
The fix is to unconditionally turn off the virtual timer on guest
exit.

Cortex-A53 processors <= r0p4 are affected by erratum #843419 which can
lead to a memory access using an incorrect address in certain sequences
headed by an ADRP instruction.
There is a linker fix to generate veneers for ADRP instructions, but
this doesn't work for kernel modules which are built as unlinked ELF
objects.
This patch adds a new config option for the erratum which, when enabled,
builds kernel modules with the mcmodel=large flag. This uses absolute
addressing for all kernel symbols, thereby removing the use of ADRP as
a PC-relative form of addressing. The ADRP relocs are removed from the
module loader so that we fail to load any potentially affected modules.

When saving/restoring the VFP registers from a compat (AArch32)
signal frame, we rely on the compat registers forming a prefix of the
native register file and therefore make use of copy_{to,from}_user to
transfer between the native fpsimd_state and the compat_vfp_sigframe.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work so well in a big-endian environment.
Our fpsimd save/restore code operates directly on 128-bit quantities
(Q registers) whereas the compat_vfp_sigframe represents the registers
as an array of 64-bit (D) registers. The architecture packs the compat D
registers into the Q registers, with the least significant bytes holding
the lower register. Consequently, we need to swap the 64-bit halves when
converting between these two representations on a big-endian machine.
This patch replaces the __copy_{to,from}_user invocations in our
compat VFP signal handling code with explicit __put_user loops that
operate on 64-bit values and swap them accordingly.

We have a couple of CPU hotplug notifiers for resetting the CPU debug
state to a sane value when a CPU comes online.
This patch ensures that we mask out CPU_TASKS_FROZEN so that we don't
miss any online events occuring due to suspend/resume.

The commit [b67893206fc0: leds:lp55xx: fix firmware loading error]
tries to address the firmware file handling with user helper, but it
sets a wrong Kconfig CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER_FALLBACK. Since the
wrong option was enabled, the system got a regression -- it suffers
from the unexpected long delays for non-present firmware files.
This patch corrects the Kconfig dependency to the right one,
CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER. This doesn't change the fallback
behavior but only enables UMH when needed.
