Pull PWM changes from Thierry Reding:
"A new driver has been added to support the PWM mode of the timer
counter blocks found on Atmel AT91 SoCs. The VT8500 driver now
supports changing the PWM signal polarity and the TI drivers (EHRPWM
and ECAP) gained suspend and resume functionality.
User drivers can now query the core for whether access to a PWM device
will sleep (if the PWM chip is on a slow bus such as I2C or SPI).
The pwm-backlight driver now handles the backlight BL_CORE_FBBLANK
state in addition to the FB layer's blanking states.
To round things off, a few fixes and cleanups are also included"

Pull MMC update from Chris Ball:
"MMC highlights for 3.9:
Core:
- Support for packed commands in eMMC 4.5. (This requires a host
capability to be turned on. It increases write throughput by 20%+,
but may also increase average write latency; more testing needed.)
- Add DT bindings for capability flags.
- Add mmc_of_parse() for shared DT parsing between drivers.
Drivers:
- android-goldfish: New MMC driver for the Android Goldfish emulator.
- mvsdio: Add DT bindings, pinctrl, use slot-gpio for card detection.
- omap_hsmmc: Fix boot hangs with RPMB partitions.
- sdhci-bcm2835: New driver for controller used by Raspberry Pi.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace and namespace infrastructure changes from Eric W Biederman:
"This set of changes starts with a few small enhnacements to the user
namespace. reboot support, allowing more arbitrary mappings, and
support for mounting devpts, ramfs, tmpfs, and mqueuefs as just the
user namespace root.
I do my best to document that if you care about limiting your
unprivileged users that when you have the user namespace support
enabled you will need to enable memory control groups.
There is a minor bug fix to prevent overflowing the stack if someone
creates way too many user namespaces.
The bulk of the changes are a continuation of the kuid/kgid push down
work through the filesystems. These changes make using uids and gids
typesafe which ensures that these filesystems are safe to use when
multiple user namespaces are in use. The filesystems converted for
3.9 are ceph, 9p, afs, ocfs2, gfs2, ncpfs, nfs, nfsd, and cifs. The
changes for these filesystems were a little more involved so I split
the changes into smaller hopefully obviously correct changes.
XFS is the only filesystem that remains. I was hoping I could get
that in this release so that user namespace support would be enabled
with an allyesconfig or an allmodconfig but it looks like the xfs
changes need another couple of days before it they are ready."

1) apply, and then revert, the sysfs export of ATA host controller
number. Discussion was continuing after patch application, trying to
figure out how to best mesh exported data with the installers,
boot-time agents and other parties that want this info.
2) Merge Zero-Power Optical Device Driver (ZPODD) support, bringing the
wonderfulness of sane power management to your CD/DVD device.
Includes one SCSI-subsystem patch (with appropriate ACKs), adding
runtime PM support to 'sr' driver. That is the ZPODD interaction
bits.
Patchset went through some 13 revisions before it got here; kudos to
Intel for persistence.
3) pata_samsung_cf: use devm_clk_get()

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen
Pull Xen update from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"This has two new ACPI drivers for Xen - a physical CPU offline/online
and a memory hotplug. The way this works is that ACPI kicks the
drivers and they make the appropiate hypercall to the hypervisor to
tell it that there is a new CPU or memory. There also some changes to
the Xen ARM ABIs and couple of fixes. One particularly nasty bug in
the Xen PV spinlock code was fixed by Stefan Bader - and has been
there since the 2.6.32!
Features:
- Xen ACPI memory and CPU hotplug drivers - allowing Xen hypervisor
to be aware of new CPU and new DIMMs
- Cleanups
Bug-fixes:
- Fixes a long-standing bug in the PV spinlock wherein we did not
kick VCPUs that were in a tight loop.
- Fixes in the error paths for the event channel machinery"
Fix up a few semantic conflicts with the ACPI interface changes in

MMC defines a number of standard DT bindings. Having each driver parse
them individually adds code redundancy and is error prone. Provide a
standard function to unify the parsing. After all drivers are converted
to using it instead of their own parsers, this function can be integrated

This patch supports packed write command of eMMC4.5 devices. Several
writes can be grouped in packed command and all data of the individual
commands can be sent in a single transfer on the bus. Large amounts of
data in one transfer rather than several data of small size are
effective for eMMC write internally. As a result, packed command help
write throughput be improved. The following tables show the results
of packed write.
Type A:
test none | packed
iozone 25.8 | 31
tiotest 27.6 | 31.2
lmdd 31.2 | 35.4
Type B:

4d55c5a1 ("mmc: sdhci: enable preset value after uhs initialization")
added preset value support and enabled it by default during sd card init.
Below are the enhancements introduced by this patch:
1. In current code, preset value is enabled after setting clock finished,
which means the clock is manually set by driver firstly and then suddenly
switched to preset value at this point. So the first setting is useless
and unnecessary. What's more, the first clock setting may differ from the
preset one. The better way is enable preset value just after switch to
UHS mode so the preset value can take effect immediately. So move preset
value enable from mmc_sd_init_card to sdhci_set_ios which will be called
during set timing.
2. In current code, preset value is disabled at the beginning of
mmc_attach_sd. It's too late since low freq (400khz) should be set in
mmc_power_up. So move preset value disable to sdhci_set_ios which will
be called during power up.
3. host->clock and ios->drv_type should also be updated according to the
preset value if it's enabled. Current code missed this.
4. This patch also introduce a quirk to disable preset value in case
preset value doesn't work.
This patch has been verified on sdhci-pxav3 platform with both preset
enabled and disabled.

The "disable-wp" property is used to specify that a given SD card slot
doesn't have a concept of write protect. This eliminates the need for
special case code for SD slots that should never be write protected
(like a micro SD slot or a dev board).
The dw_mmc driver is special in needing to specify "disable-wp"
because the lack of a "wp-gpios" property means to use the special
purpose write protect line. On some other mmc devices the lack of
"wp-gpios" means that write protect should be disabled.

In "ksm: remove old stable nodes more thoroughly" I said that I'd never
seen its WARN_ON_ONCE(page_mapped(page)). True at the time of writing,
but it soon appeared once I tried fuller tests on the whole series.
It turned out to be due to the KSM page migration itself: unmerge_and_
remove_all_rmap_items() failed to locate and replace all the KSM pages,
because of that hiatus in page migration when old pte has been replaced
by migration entry, but not yet by new pte. follow_page() finds no page
at that instant, but a KSM page reappears shortly after, without a
fault.
Add FOLL_MIGRATION flag, so follow_page() can do migration_entry_wait()
for KSM's break_cow(). I'd have preferred to avoid another flag, and do
it every time, in case someone else makes the same easy mistake; but did
not find another transgressor (the common get_user_pages() is of course
safe), and cannot be sure that every follow_page() caller is prepared to
sleep - ia64's xencomm_vtop()? Now, THP's wait_split_huge_page() can
already sleep there, since anon_vma locking was changed to mutex, but
maybe that's somehow excluded.

This change adds a follow_page_mask function which is equivalent to
follow_page, but with an extra page_mask argument.
follow_page_mask sets *page_mask to HPAGE_PMD_NR - 1 when it encounters
a THP page, and to 0 in other cases.
__get_user_pages() makes use of this in order to accelerate populating
THP ranges - that is, when both the pages and vmas arrays are NULL, we
don't need to iterate HPAGE_PMD_NR times to cover a single THP page (and
we also avoid taking mm->page_table_lock that many times).

This also switches to using them in compaction (where an additional

Note that in compaction.c I avoid calling zone_end_pfn() repeatedly
because I expect at some point the sycronization issues with start_pfn &

Switching merge_across_nodes after running KSM is liable to oops on stale
nodes still left over from the previous stable tree. It's not something
that people will often want to do, but it would be lame to demand a reboot
when they're trying to determine which merge_across_nodes setting is best.
How can this happen? We only permit switching merge_across_nodes when
pages_shared is 0, and usually set run 2 to force that beforehand, which
ought to unmerge everything: yet oopses still occur when you then run 1.
Three causes:
1. The old stable tree (built according to the inverse
merge_across_nodes) has not been fully torn down. A stable node
lingers until get_ksm_page() notices that the page it references no
longer references it: but the page is not necessarily freed as soon as
expected, particularly when swapcache.
Fix this with a pass through the old stable tree, applying
get_ksm_page() to each of the remaining nodes (most found stale and
removed immediately), with forced removal of any left over. Unless the
page is still mapped: I've not seen that case, it shouldn't occur, but
better to WARN_ON_ONCE and EBUSY than BUG.
2. __ksm_enter() has a nice little optimization, to insert the new mm
just behind ksmd's cursor, so there's a full pass for it to stabilize
(or be removed) before ksmd addresses it. Nice when ksmd is running,
but not so nice when we're trying to unmerge all mms: we were missing
those mms forked and inserted behind the unmerge cursor. Easily fixed
by inserting at the end when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE.
3. It is possible for a KSM page to be faulted back from swapcache
into an mm, just after unmerge_and_remove_all_rmap_items() scanned past
it. Fix this by copying on fault when KSM_RUN_UNMERGE: but that is
private to ksm.c, so dissolve the distinction between
ksm_might_need_to_copy() and ksm_does_need_to_copy(), doing it all in
the one call into ksm.c.
A long outstanding, unrelated bugfix sneaks in with that third fix:
ksm_does_need_to_copy() would copy from a !PageUptodate page (implying I/O
error when read in from swap) to a page which it then marks Uptodate. Fix
this case by not copying, letting do_swap_page() discover the error.

The function names page_xchg_last_nid(), page_last_nid() and
reset_page_last_nid() were judged to be inconsistent so rename them to a
struct_field_op style pattern. As it looked jarring to have
reset_page_mapcount() and page_nid_reset_last() beside each other in
memmap_init_zone(), this patch also renames reset_page_mapcount() to
page_mapcount_reset(). There are others like init_page_count() but as
it is used throughout the arch code a rename would likely cause more
conflicts than it is worth.

Andrew Morton pointed out that page_xchg_last_nid() and
reset_page_last_nid() were "getting nuttily large" and asked that it be
investigated.
reset_page_last_nid() is on the page free path and it would be
unfortunate to make that path more expensive than it needs to be. Due
to the internal use of page_xchg_last_nid() it is already too expensive
but fortunately, it should also be impossible for the page->flags to be
updated in parallel when we call reset_page_last_nid(). Instead of
unlining the function, it uses a simplier implementation that assumes no
parallel updates and should now be sufficiently short for inlining.
page_xchg_last_nid() is called in paths that are already quite expensive
(splitting huge page, fault handling, migration) and it is reasonable to
uninline. There was not really a good place to place the function but
mm/mmzone.c was the closest fit IMO.

swap_lock is heavily contended when I test swap to 3 fast SSD (even
slightly slower than swap to 2 such SSD). The main contention comes
from swap_info_get(). This patch tries to fix the gap with adding a new
per-partition lock.
Global data like nr_swapfiles, total_swap_pages, least_priority and
swap_list are still protected by swap_lock.
nr_swap_pages is an atomic now, it can be changed without swap_lock. In
theory, it's possible get_swap_page() finds no swap pages but actually
there are free swap pages. But sounds not a big problem.
Accessing partition specific data (like scan_swap_map and so on) is only
protected by swap_info_struct.lock.
Changing swap_info_struct.flags need hold swap_lock and
swap_info_struct.lock, because scan_scan_map() will check it. read the
flags is ok with either the locks hold.
If both swap_lock and swap_info_struct.lock must be hold, we always hold
the former first to avoid deadlock.
swap_entry_free() can change swap_list. To delete that code, we add a
new highest_priority_index. Whenever get_swap_page() is called, we
check it. If it's valid, we use it.
It's a pity get_swap_page() still holds swap_lock(). But in practice,
swap_lock() isn't heavily contended in my test with this patch (or I can
say there are other much more heavier bottlenecks like TLB flush). And
BTW, looks get_swap_page() doesn't really need the lock. We never free
swap_info[] and we check SWAP_WRITEOK flag. The only risk without the
lock is we could swapout to some low priority swap, but we can quickly
recover after several rounds of swap, so sounds not a big deal to me.
But I'd prefer to fix this if it's a real problem.
"swap: make each swap partition have one address_space" improved the
swapout speed from 1.7G/s to 2G/s. This patch further improves the
speed to 2.3G/s, so around 15% improvement. It's a multi-process test,
so TLB flush isn't the biggest bottleneck before the patches.

When I use several fast SSD to do swap, swapper_space.tree_lock is
heavily contended. This makes each swap partition have one
address_space to reduce the lock contention. There is an array of
address_space for swap. The swap entry type is the index to the array.
In my test with 3 SSD, this increases the swapout throughput 20%.
