In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
must explicitly initialize any locks.
The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
the structure.
This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
this worth while.
Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
the seqcount lockdep enablement.
Feedback would be appreciated!

Negative message lengths make no sense -- so don't do negative queue
lenghts or identifier counts. Prevent them from getting negative.
Also change the underlying data types to be unsigned to avoid hairy
surprises with sign extensions in cases where those variables get
evaluated in unsigned expressions with bigger data types, e.g size_t.
In case a user still wants to have "unlimited" sizes she could just use
INT_MAX instead.

A vmalloc fault needs to sync up PGD/PTE entry from init_mm to current
task's "active_mm". ARC vmalloc fault handler however was using mm.
A vmalloc fault for non user task context (actually pre-userland, from
init thread's open for /dev/console) caused the handler to deref NULL mm
(for mm->pgd)
The reasons it worked so far is amazing:
1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD.
In SMP that MMU register is repurposed hence need for mm pointer deref.
2. In pre-3.12 SMP kernel, the problem triggering vmalloc didn't exist in
pre-userland code path - it was introduced with commit 20bafb3d23d108bc

This patch uses CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET to filter symbols which
are not in kernel address space because these symbols are
generally for generating code purpose and can't be run at
kernel mode, so we needn't keep them in /proc/kallsyms.
For example, on ARM there are some symbols which may be
linked in relocatable code section, then perf can't parse
symbols any more from /proc/kallsyms, this patch fixes the
problem (introduced b9b32bf70f2fb710b07c94e13afbc729afe221da)

When a memcg is deleted mem_cgroup_reparent_charges() moves charged
memory to the parent memcg. As of v3.11-9444-g3ea67d0 "memcg: add per
cgroup writeback pages accounting" there's bad pointer read. The goal
was to check for counter underflow. The counter is a per cpu counter
and there are two problems with the code:
(1) per cpu access function isn't used, instead a naked pointer is used
which easily causes oops.
(2) the check doesn't sum all cpus
Test:
$ cd /sys/fs/cgroup/memory
$ mkdir x
$ echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
$ (echo $BASHPID >> x/tasks && exec cat) &
[1] 7154
$ grep ^mapped x/memory.stat
mapped_file 53248
$ echo 7154 > tasks
$ rmdir x
<OOPS>
The fix is to remove the check. It's currently dangerous and isn't
worth fixing it to use something expensive, such as
percpu_counter_sum(), for each reparented page. __this_cpu_read() isn't
enough to fix this because there's no guarantees of the current cpus
count. The only guarantees is that the sum of all per-cpu counter is >=
nr_pages.

Johan has been conned^Wgracious in accepting the maintainership of the
USB serial drivers, especially as he's been doing all of the real work
for the past few years.
At the same time, remove a bunch of old entries for USB serial drivers
that don't make sense anymore, given that the developers are no longer
around, and individual driver maintainerships for tiny things like this
is pretty pointless.

Commit b1adaf65ba03 ("[SCSI] block: add sg buffer copy helper
functions") introduces two sg buffer copy helpers, and calls
flush_kernel_dcache_page() on pages in SG list after these pages are
written to.
Unfortunately, the commit may introduce a potential bug:
- Before sending some SCSI commands, kmalloc() buffer may be passed to
block layper, so flush_kernel_dcache_page() can see a slab page
finally
- According to cachetlb.txt, flush_kernel_dcache_page() is only called
on "a user page", which surely can't be a slab page.
- ARCH's implementation of flush_kernel_dcache_page() may use page
mapping information to do optimization so page_mapping() will see the
slab page, then VM_BUG_ON() is triggered.
Aaro Koskinen reported the bug on ARM/kirkwood when DEBUG_VM is enabled,
and this patch fixes the bug by adding test of '!PageSlab(miter->page)'
before calling flush_kernel_dcache_page().

When memcg code needs to know whether any given memcg has children, it
uses the cgroup child iteration primitives and returns true/false
depending on whether the iteration loop is executed at least once or
not.
Because a cgroup's list of children is RCU protected, these primitives
require the RCU read-lock to be held, which is not the case for all
memcg callers. This results in the following splat when e.g. enabling
hierarchy mode:
WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 1 at kernel/cgroup.c:3043 css_next_child+0xa3/0x160()

In the memcg case, we only care about children when we are attempting to
modify inheritable attributes interactively. Racing with deletion could
mean a spurious -EBUSY, no problem. Racing with addition is handled
just fine as well through the memcg_create_mutex: if the child group is
not on the list after the mutex is acquired, it won't be initialized
from the parent's attributes until after the unlock.

The memcg OOM lock is a mutex-type lock that is open-coded due to
memcg's special needs. Add annotations for lockdep coverage.

Commit 84235de394d9 ("fs: buffer: move allocation failure loop into the
allocator") allowed __GFP_NOFAIL allocations to bypass the limit if they
fail to reclaim enough memory for the charge. But because the main test
case was on a 3.2-based system, the patch missed the fact that on newer
kernels the charge function needs to return root_mem_cgroup when
bypassing the limit, and not NULL. This will corrupt whatever memory is
at NULL + percpu pointer offset. Fix this quickly before problems are
reported.

We do not want to dirty the dentry->d_flags cacheline in dput() just to
set the DCACHE_REFERENCED flag when it is already set in the common case
anyway. This way the first cacheline of the dentry (which contains the
RCU lookup information etc) can stay shared among multiple CPU's.
This finishes off some of the details of all the scalability patches
merged during the merge window.
Also don't mark dentry_kill() for inlining, since it's the uncommon path
and inlining it just makes the common path slower due to extra function
entry/exit overhead.

The last i915 drm update brought with it this annoying warning
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_crt.c: In function ‘intel_crt_get_config’:
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_crt.c:110:21: warning: unused variable ‘dev’ [-Wunused-variable]
struct drm_device *dev = encoder->base.dev;

introduced by commit 7195a50b5c7e ("drm/i915: Add HSW CRT output readout
support").
Remove the offending pointless variable.

Pull NUMA balancing memory corruption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"So these fixes are definitely not something I'd like to sit on, but as
I said to Mel at the KS the timing is quite tight, with Linus planning
v3.12-final within a week.
Fedora-19 is affected:
comet:~> grep NUMA_BALANCING /boot/config-3.11.3-201.fc19.x86_64
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_NUMA_BALANCING=y
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING_DEFAULT_ENABLED=y
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y
AFAICS Ubuntu will be affected as well, once it updates the kernel:
hubble:~> grep NUMA_BALANCING /boot/config-3.8.0-32-generic
CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_NUMA_BALANCING=y
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING_DEFAULT_ENABLED=y
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING=y
These 6 commits are a minimalized set of cherry-picks needed to fix
the memory corruption bugs. All commits are fixes, except "mm: numa:
Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsites" which is a cleanup that made two
followup fixes simpler.
I've done targeted testing with just this SHA1 to try to make sure
there are no cherry-picking artifacts. The original non-cherry-picked
set of fixes were exposed to linux-next for a couple of weeks"
* 'core-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
mm: Account for a THP NUMA hinting update as one PTE update
mm: Close races between THP migration and PMD numa clearing
mm: numa: Sanitize task_numa_fault() callsites
mm: Prevent parallel splits during THP migration
mm: Wait for THP migrations to complete during NUMA hinting faults
mm: numa: Do not account for a hinting fault if we raced
