Prevent clean ext3 filesystems from mounting by default with the ext2
driver (with no journal!) by putting ext4 ahead of ext2 in the default
probe order. This will have the effect of mounting ext2 filesystems
with ext4.ko by default, which is a safer failure than hoping the user
notices that their journalled ext3 is now running without a journal!
Users who require ext2.ko for ext2 can either disable ext4.ko or
explicitly request ext2 via "mount -t ext2" or "rootfstype=ext2".

Change the journal's checksum functions to gate on whether or not the
crc32c driver is loaded, and gate the loading on the superblock bits.
This prevents a journal crash if someone loads a journal in no-csum
mode and then randomizes the superblock, thus flipping on the feature
bits.

If there is a error while copying data from userspace into the page
cache during a write(2) system call, in data=journal mode, in
ext4_journalled_write_end() were using page_zero_new_buffers() from
fs/buffer.c. Unfortunately, this sets the buffer dirty flag, which is
no good if journalling is enabled. This is a long-standing bug that
goes back for years and years in ext3, but a combination of (a)
data=journal not being very common, (b) in many case it only results
in a warning message. and (c) only very rarely causes the kernel hang,
means that we only really noticed this as a problem when commit
998ef75ddb caused this failure to happen frequently enough to cause
generic/208 to fail when run in data=journal mode.
The fix is to have our own version of this function that doesn't call
mark_dirty_buffer(), since we will end up calling
ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() on the buffer head(s) in questions very
shortly afterwards in ext4_journalled_write_end().
Thanks to Dave Hansen and Linus Torvalds for helping to identify the
root cause of the problem.

Fix multiple bugs in ext4_encrypted_zeroout(), including one that
could cause us to write an encrypted zero page to the wrong location
on disk, potentially causing data and file system corruption.
Fortunately, this tends to only show up in stress tests, but even with
these fixes, we are seeing some test failures with generic/127 --- but
these are now caused by data failures instead of metadata corruption.
Since ext4_encrypted_zeroout() is only used for some optimizations to
keep the extent tree from being too fragmented, and
ext4_encrypted_zeroout() itself isn't all that optimized from a time
or IOPS perspective, disable the extent tree optimization for
encrypted inodes for now. This prevents the data corruption issues
reported by generic/127 until we can figure out what's going wrong.

Since ext4_page_crypto() doesn't need an encryption context (at least
not any more), this allows us to simplify a number function signature
and also allows us to avoid needing to allocate a context in
ext4_block_write_begin(). It also means we no longer need a separate
ext4_decrypt_one() function.

In cases where the file system block size is the same as the page
size, and ext4_writepage() is asked to write out a page which is
either has the unwritten bit set in the extent tree, or which does not
yet have a block assigned due to delayed allocation, we can bail out
early and, unlocking the page earlier and avoiding a round trip
through ext4_bio_write_page() with the attendant calls to
set_page_writeback() and redirty_page_for_writeback().

There are times when ext4_bio_write_page() is called even though we
don't actually need to do any I/O. This happens when ext4_writepage()
gets called by the jbd2 commit path when an inode needs to force its
pages written out in order to provide data=ordered guarantees --- and
a page is backed by an unwritten (e.g., uninitialized) block on disk,
or if delayed allocation means the page's backing store hasn't been
allocated yet. In that case, we need to skip the call to
ext4_encrypt_page(), since in addition to wasting CPU, it leads to a
bounce page and an ext4 crypto context getting leaked.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
