Pull ARM DT updates from Olof Johansson:
"Device tree contents continue to be the largest branches we submit.
This time around, some of the contents worth pointing out is:
New SoC platforms:
- Freescale i.MX 7Solo
- Broadcom BCM23550
- Cirrus Logic EP7209 and EP7211 (clps711x platforms)_
- Hisilicon HI3519
- Renesas R8A7792
Some of the other delta that is sticking out, line-count wise:
- Exynos moves of IP blocks under an SoC bus, which causes a large
delta due to indentation changes
- a new Tegra K1 board: Apalis
- a bunch of small updates to many Allwinner platforms; new hardware
support, some cleanup, etc"

Using set_bit() to set a bit in an integer is not a good idea, since
the function expects an unsigned long as argument, which can be 64 bit
wide. Coverity reports this problem as
>>> CID 1364488: Memory - illegal accesses (INCOMPATIBLE_CAST)
>>> Pointer "&ret" points to an object whose effective type is "int"
>>> (32 bits, signed) but is dereferenced as a wider "unsigned
+long" (64 bits, unsigned). This may lead to memory corruption.
245 set_bit(1, (unsigned long *)&ret);
Just use BIT instead.

- Add the error propagating support in compress-offload API
- HD-audio: a usual Dell headset fixup, an Intel HDMI/DP fix, and the
default mixer setup change ot turn off the loopback
- Lots of updates for ASoC Intel drivers, mostly board support and
bug fixing, and to the NAU8825 driver
- Work on generalizing bits of simple-card to allow more code sharing
with the Renesas rsrc-card (which can't use simple-card due to DPCM)
- Removal of the Odroid X2 driver due to replacement with simple-card
- Support for several new Mediatek platforms and associated boards

On a system with sparse node ids, eg. a powerpc system with 4 nodes
numbered like so:
node 0: [mem 0x0000000000000000-0x00000007ffffffff]
node 1: [mem 0x0000000800000000-0x0000000fffffffff]
node 16: [mem 0x0000001000000000-0x00000017ffffffff]
node 17: [mem 0x0000001800000000-0x0000001fffffffff]
The code in rand_initialize() will allocate 4 pointers for the pool
array, and initialise them correctly.
However when go to use the pool, in eg. extract_crng(), we use the
numa_node_id() to index into the array. For the higher numbered node ids
this leads to random memory corruption, depending on what was kmalloc'ed
adjacent to the pool array.
Fix it by using nr_node_ids to size the pool array.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull userns vfs updates from Eric Biederman:
"This tree contains some very long awaited work on generalizing the
user namespace support for mounting filesystems to include filesystems
with a backing store. The real world target is fuse but the goal is
to update the vfs to allow any filesystem to be supported. This
patchset is based on a lot of code review and testing to approach that
goal.
While looking at what is needed to support the fuse filesystem it
became clear that there were things like xattrs for security modules
that needed special treatment. That the resolution of those concerns
would not be fuse specific. That sorting out these general issues
made most sense at the generic level, where the right people could be
drawn into the conversation, and the issues could be solved for
everyone.
At a high level what this patchset does a couple of simple things:
- Add a user namespace owner (s_user_ns) to struct super_block.
- Teach the vfs to handle filesystem uids and gids not mapping into
to kuids and kgids and being reported as INVALID_UID and
INVALID_GID in vfs data structures.
By assigning a user namespace owner filesystems that are mounted with
only user namespace privilege can be detected. This allows security
modules and the like to know which mounts may not be trusted. This
also allows the set of uids and gids that are communicated to the
filesystem to be capped at the set of kuids and kgids that are in the
owning user namespace of the filesystem.
One of the crazier corner casees this handles is the case of inodes
whose i_uid or i_gid are not mapped into the vfs. Most of the code
simply doesn't care but it is easy to confuse the inode writeback path
so no operation that could cause an inode write-back is permitted for
such inodes (aka only reads are allowed).
This set of changes starts out by cleaning up the code paths involved
in user namespace permirted mounts. Then when things are clean enough
adds code that cleanly sets s_user_ns. Then additional restrictions
are added that are possible now that the filesystem superblock
contains owner information.
These changes should not affect anyone in practice, but there are some
parts of these restrictions that are changes in behavior.
- Andy's restriction on suid executables that does not honor the
suid bit when the path is from another mount namespace (think
/proc/[pid]/fd/) or when the filesystem was mounted by a less
privileged user.
- The replacement of the user namespace implicit setting of MNT_NODEV
with implicitly setting SB_I_NODEV on the filesystem superblock
instead.
Using SB_I_NODEV is a stronger form that happens to make this state
user invisible. The user visibility can be managed but it caused
problems when it was introduced from applications reasonably
expecting mount flags to be what they were set to.
There is a little bit of work remaining before it is safe to support
mounting filesystems with backing store in user namespaces, beyond
what is in this set of changes.
- Verifying the mounter has permission to read/write the block device
during mount.
- Teaching the integrity modules IMA and EVM to handle filesystems
mounted with only user namespace root and to reduce trust in their
security xattrs accordingly.
- Capturing the mounters credentials and using that for permission
checks in d_automount and the like. (Given that overlayfs already
does this, and we need the work in d_automount it make sense to
generalize this case).
Furthermore there are a few changes that are on the wishlist:
- Get all filesystems supporting posix acls using the generic posix
acls so that posix_acl_fix_xattr_from_user and
posix_acl_fix_xattr_to_user may be removed. [Maintainability]
- Reducing the permission checks in places such as remount to allow
the superblock owner to perform them.
- Allowing the superblock owner to chown files with unmapped uids and
gids to something that is mapped so the files may be treated
normally.
I am not considering even obvious relaxations of permission checks
until it is clear there are no more corner cases that need to be
locked down and handled generically.
Many thanks to Seth Forshee who kept this code alive, and putting up
with me rewriting substantial portions of what he did to handle more
corner cases, and for his diligent testing and reviewing of my
changes"

The IV output vectors should only be copied from the _complete operation
and not from the _process operation, i.e only from the operation that is
designed to copy the result of the request to the right location. This
copy is already done in the _complete operation, so this commit removes
the duplicated code in the _process op.

The workqueue "workq" provides support for sd/mmc async request, which
makes next request do dma_map_sg() while previous request transferring
data.
The workqueue has a single workitem(&host->work) and hence doesn't require
ordering. Also, it is not being used on a memory reclaim path. Hence,
the singlethreaded workqueue has been replaced with the use of system_wq.
System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded
workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue
created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple
work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a
per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering
guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the
increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.
Work item has been flushed in rtsx_pci_sdmmc_drv_remove() to ensure that
there are no pending tasks while disconnecting the driver.

The rtsx_pci driver is using a fixed 3s timeout for R1B responses, which
in some cases isn't suffient. For example, erase/discard requests may
require longer timeouts.
Instead of always using a fixed timeout, let's use the per request
calculated busy timeout from the mmc core.

Move the system PM callbacks within #ifdef CONFIG_PM_SLEEP as to avoid
them being build when not used. This also allows us to use the
SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS macro which simplifies the code.
Within this context it also makes sense to move the declaration of the
struct sdhci_pltfm_pmops, outside the #ifdef CONFIG_PM as the
SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS deals with this. This further simplifies the code.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
- Replace pcommit with ADR / directed-flushing.
The pcommit instruction, which has not shipped on any product, is
deprecated. Instead, the requirement is that platforms implement
either ADR, or provide one or more flush addresses per nvdimm.
ADR (Asynchronous DRAM Refresh) flushes data in posted write buffers
to the memory controller on a power-fail event.
Flush addresses are defined in ACPI 6.x as an NVDIMM Firmware
Interface Table (NFIT) sub-structure: "Flush Hint Address Structure".
A flush hint is an mmio address that when written and fenced assures
that all previous posted writes targeting a given dimm have been
flushed to media.
- On-demand ARS (address range scrub).
Linux uses the results of the ACPI ARS commands to track bad blocks
in pmem devices. When latent errors are detected we re-scrub the
media to refresh the bad block list, userspace can also request a
re-scrub at any time.
- Support for the Microsoft DSM (device specific method) command
format.
- Support for EDK2/OVMF virtual disk device memory ranges.
- Various fixes and cleanups across the subsystem.

Currently, NR_KERNEL_STACK tracks the number of kernel stacks in a zone.
This only makes sense if each kernel stack exists entirely in one zone,
and allowing vmapped stacks could break this assumption.
Since frv has THREAD_SIZE < PAGE_SIZE, we need to track kernel stack
allocations in a unit that divides both THREAD_SIZE and PAGE_SIZE on all
architectures. Keep it simple and use KiB.

There are now a number of accounting oddities such as mapped file pages
being accounted for on the node while the total number of file pages are
accounted on the zone. This can be coped with to some extent but it's
confusing so this patch moves the relevant file-based accounted. Due to
throttling logic in the page allocator for reliable OOM detection, it is
still necessary to track dirty and writeback pages on a per-zone basis.

This moves the LRU lists from the zone to the node and related data such
as counters, tracing, congestion tracking and writeback tracking.
Unfortunately, due to reclaim and compaction retry logic, it is
necessary to account for the number of LRU pages on both zone and node
logic. Most reclaim logic is based on the node counters but the retry
logic uses the zone counters which do not distinguish inactive and
active sizes. It would be possible to leave the LRU counters on a
per-zone basis but it's a heavier calculation across multiple cache
lines that is much more frequent than the retry checks.
Other than the LRU counters, this is mostly a mechanical patch but note
that it introduces a number of anomalies. For example, the scans are
per-zone but using per-node counters. We also mark a node as congested
when a zone is congested. This causes weird problems that are fixed
later but is easier to review.
In the event that there is excessive overhead on 32-bit systems due to
the nodes being on LRU then there are two potential solutions
1. Long-term isolation of highmem pages when reclaim is lowmem
When pages are skipped, they are immediately added back onto the LRU
list. If lowmem reclaim persisted for long periods of time, the same
highmem pages get continually scanned. The idea would be that lowmem
keeps those pages on a separate list until a reclaim for highmem pages
arrives that splices the highmem pages back onto the LRU. It potentially
could be implemented similar to the UNEVICTABLE list.
That would reduce the skip rate with the potential corner case is that
highmem pages have to be scanned and reclaimed to free lowmem slab pages.
2. Linear scan lowmem pages if the initial LRU shrink fails
This will break LRU ordering but may be preferable and faster during
memory pressure than skipping LRU pages.
