This patch changes the multi-block allocation code, such that
directory inodes only get a single block reserved in the bitmap.
That way, the bitmaps are more tightly packed together, and there
are fewer spans of free blocks for in-use block reservations.
This means it takes less time to find a free span of blocks in the
bitmap, which speeds things up. This increases the performance of
some workloads by almost 2X. In Nate's mockup.py script (which does
(1) create dir, (2) create dir in dir, (3) create file in that dir)
the test executes in 23 steps rather than 43 steps, a 47%
performance improvement.

Recent commit e61133dda480062d221f09e4fc18f66763f8ecd0 added support
for a new firmware feature to force an adapter to use 32 bit MSIs.
However, this firmware is not available for all systems. The hack below
allows devices needing 32 bit MSIs to work on these systems as well.
It is careful to only enable this on Gen2 slots, which should limit
this to configurations where this hack is needed and tested to work.
[Small change to factor out the hack into a separate function -- BenH]

In commit 9353374 "Context switch the new EBB SPRs" we added support for

off on that patch we missed some. To be fair these are not actually new
SPRs, but they are now potentially user accessible so need to be context

Added the cra_alignmask field for CBC and ECB modes.
Fixed a bug in GCM where AES block size was being used instead of
authsize.
Removed use of blkcipher_walk routines for scatterlist processing.
Corner cases in the code prevent us from processing an entire

turns out to be unecessary anyway.

In function be_get_nic_desc(), it will go through the descriptor array
returned from f/w. By comparing the desc_type field, it determines whether
there is a nic descriptor in the array or not. In the case of no nic
descriptor, this function should return NULL.
The code may return an invalide descriptor, when there is no nic descriptor
in the array and the desc_count is less than MAX_RESOURCE_DESC. In this case,
even there is no nic descriptor, it will still return the lase descriptor
since the i doesn't equal to MAX_RESOURCE_DESC.
This patch fix this issue by returning the descriptor when find it and return
NULL for other cases.

The current code uses 2 bits for determining page's dcache color, thus
sorting pages into 4 bins, whereas the aliasing dcache really has 2 bins
(8k page, 64k dcache - 4 way-set-assoc).
This can cause extraneous flushes - e.g. color 0 and 2.

The VM_EXEC check in update_mmu_cache() was getting optimized away
because of a stupid error in definition of macro addr_not_cache_congruent()
The intention was to have the equivalent of following:
if (a || (1 ? b : 0))
but we ended up with following:
if (a || 1 ? b : 0)
And because precedence of '||' is more that that of '?', gcc was optimizing
away evaluation of <a>
Nasty Repercussions:
1. For non-aliasing configs it would mean some extraneous dcache flushes
for non-code pages if U/K mappings were not congruent.
2. For aliasing config, some needed dcache flush for code pages might
be missed if U/K mappings were congruent.

This patch is a fix for a bug triggering newly_acked_sacked < 0
in tcp_ack(.).
The bug is triggered by sacked_out decreasing relative to prior_sacked,
but packets_out remaining the same as pior_packets. This is because the
snapshot of prior_packets is taken after tcp_sacktag_write_queue() while
prior_sacked is captured before tcp_sacktag_write_queue(). The problem
is: tcp_sacktag_write_queue (tcp_match_skb_to_sack() -> tcp_fragment)
adjusts the pcount for packets_out and sacked_out (MSS change or other
reason). As a result, this delta in pcount is reflected in
(prior_sacked - sacked_out) but not in (prior_packets - packets_out).
This patch does the following:
1) initializes prior_packets at the start of tcp_ack() so as to
capture the delta in packets_out created by tcp_fragment.
2) introduces a new "previous_packets_out" variable that snapshots
packets_out right before tcp_clean_rtx_queue, so pkts_acked can be
correctly computed as before.
3) Computes pkts_acked using previous_packets_out, and computes
newly_acked_sacked using prior_packets.

ARC700 MMU provides fully orthogonal permission bits per page:
Ur, Uw, Ux, Kr, Kw, Kx
The user mode page permission templates used to have all Kernel mode
access bits enabled.
This caused a tricky race condition observed with uClibc buffered file
read and UNIX pipes.
1. Read access to an anon mapped page in libc .bss: write-protected
zero_page mapped: TLB Entry installed with Ur + K[rwx]
2. grep calls libc:getc() -> buffered read layer calls read(2) with the
internal read buffer in same .bss page.
The read() call is on STDIN which has been redirected to a pipe.
read(2) => sys_read() => pipe_read() => copy_to_user()
3. Since page has Kernel-write permission (despite being user-mode
write-protected), copy_to_user() suceeds w/o taking a MMU TLB-Miss
Exception (page-fault for ARC). core-MM is unaware that kernel
erroneously wrote to the reserved read-only zero-page (BUG #1)
4. Control returns to userspace which now does a write to same .bss page
Since Linux MM is not aware that page has been modified by kernel, it
simply reassigns a new writable zero-init page to mapping, loosing the
prior write by kernel - effectively zero'ing out the libc read buffer
under the hood - hence grep doesn't see right data (BUG #2)
The fix is to make all kernel-mode access permissions mirror the
user-mode ones. Note that the kernel still has full access to pages,
when accessed directly (w/o MMU) - this fix ensures that kernel-mode
access in copy_to_from() path uses the same faulting access model as for
pure user accesses to keep MM fully aware of page state.
The issue is peudo-random because it only shows up if the TLB entry
installed in #1 is present at the time of #3. If it is evicted out, due
to TLB pressure or some-such, then copy_to_user() does take a TLB Miss
Exception, with a routine write-to-anon COW processing installing a
fresh page for kernel writes and also usable as it is in userspace.
Further the issue was dormant for so long as it depends on where the
libc internal read buffer (in .bss) is mapped at runtime.
If it happens to reside in file-backed data mapping of libc (in the
page-aligned slack space trailing the file backed data), loader zero
padding the slack space, does the early cow page replacement, setting
things up at the very beginning itself.
With gcc 4.8 based builds, the libc buffer got pushed out to a real
anon mapping which triggers the issue.

Flush and INVALIDATE the dcache page.
This helper is only used for writeback of CODE pages to memory. So
there's no value in keeping the dcache lines around. Infact it is risky
as a writeback on natural eviction under pressure can cause un-needed
writeback with weird issues on aliasing dcache configurations.

Pull MIPS update from Ralf Baechle:
- Fix a build error if <linux/printk.h> is included without
<linux/linkage.h> having been included before.
- Cleanup and fix the damage done by the generic idle loop patch.
- A kprobes fix that brings the MIPS code in line with what other
architectures are for quite a while already.
- Wire up the native getdents64(2) syscall for 64 bit - for some reason
it was only for the compat ABIs. This has been reported to cause an
application issue. This turned out bigger than I meant but the wait
instruction support code was driving me nuts.
* 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus:
MIPS: N64: Wire getdents64(2)
kprobes/mips: Fix to check double free of insn slot
MIPS: Idle: Break r4k_wait into two functions and fix it.
MIPS: Idle: Do address fiddlery in helper functions.
MIPS: Idle: Consolidate all declarations in <asm/idle.h>.
MIPS: Idle: Don't call local_irq_disable() in cpu_wait() implementations.
MIPS: Idle: Re-enable irqs at the end of r3081, au1k and loongson2 cpu_wait.
MIPS: Idle: Make call of function pointer readable.
MIPS: Idle: Consistently reformat inline assembler.
MIPS: Idle: cleaup SMTC idle hook as per Linux coding style.
MIPS: Consolidate idle loop / WAIT instruction support in a single file.
MIPS: clock.h: Remove declaration of cpu_wait.
Add include dependencies to <linux/printk.h>.
MIPS: Rewrite pfn_valid to work in modules, too.

Like on UL30VT, the ACPI video driver can't control backlight correctly on
Asus UL30A. Vendor driver (asus-laptop) can work. This patch is to
add "Asus UL30A" to ACPI video detect blacklist in order to use
asus-laptop for video control on the "Asus UL30A" rather than ACPI
video driver.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jic23/iio into staging-linus
Jonathan writes:
First round of IIO fixes for the 3.10 cycle.
The usual mixed bag of little fixes.
1) A fix for mxs-lradc having missed out on some global abi changes that and
hence being unable to start up buffered output.
2) Clean up error handling in tsl2x7x
3) A build fix for some of the dac drivers when they have spi master support
built in, but i2c support build as a module.
4) Add a missing disable after a oneshot capture to the st sensor core.
5) Exynos adc driver took a novel an incorrect route to get at its private
data store.

====================
Somewhat surprisingly, the net_dropmonitor reporting script doesn't work
at all. This series fixes it and then makes it slightly more efficient.
