b02b371e6d USB: add Cypress c67x00 OTG controller core driver
This patch add the core driver for the c67x00 USB OTG controller.  The core
driver is responsible for the platform bus binding and creating either
USB HCD or USB Gadget instances for each of the serial interface engines
on the chip.

This driver does not directly implement the HCD or gadget behaviours; it
just controls access to the chip.

db4742dd8f [SCSI] add support for variable length extended commands
Add support for variable-length, extended, and vendor specific
CDBs to scsi-ml. It is now possible for initiators and ULD's
to issue these types of commands. LLDs need not change much.
All they need is to raise the .max_cmd_len to the longest command
they support (see iscsi patch).

- clean-up some code paths that did not expect commands to be
  larger than 16, and change cmd_len members' type to short as
  char is not enough.

64a87b244b [SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer
- struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own.
   This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's
   cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd
   could function without a request attached. So clean that up.

 - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed
   adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd.

 - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left
   that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it
   and is reflected in the patch below is.
   MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB
                      as per the SCSI standard and is not related
                      to the implementation.
   BLK_MAX_CDB.     - The allocated space at the request level

 - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use ->cmnd in a DMA
   Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen.

(*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined
   by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike
   the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly
   true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and
   vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel
   will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's.
   So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command
   scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's

c45a6816c1 virtio: explicit advertisement of driver features
A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed
some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature
negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns.

There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I
didn't notice when it was violated.

So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports
in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio
core.  The intersection of device and driver features are presented in
a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device.

Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long
bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a
straight-forward little-endian array of bytes.

Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they
really have to.

API changes:
- dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature.
- drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field
- use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits

72e61eb40b virtio: change config to guest endian.
A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed
some flaws in the API, in particular how easy it is to break big
endian machines.

The virtio config space was originally chosen to be little-endian,
because we thought the config might be part of the PCI config space
for virtio_pci.  It's actually a separate mmio region, so that
argument holds little water; as only x86 is currently using the virtio
mechanism, we can change this (but must do so now, before the
impending s390 merge).

API changes:
- __virtio_config_val() just becomes a striaght vdev->config_get() call.

5539ae9613 virtio: finer-grained features for virtio_net
So, we previously had a 'VIRTIO_NET_F_GSO' bit which meant that 'the
host can handle csum offload, and any TSO (v4&v6 incl ECN) or UFO
packets you might want to send.  I thought this was good enough for
Linux, but it actually isn't, since we don't do UFO in software.

So, add separate feature bits for what the host can handle.  Add
equivalent ones for the guest to say what it can handle, because LRO
is coming too (thanks Herbert!).

8147313287 virtio: export more headers to userspace
Rusty,

is there a reason why we dont export the virtio headers for
9p, balloon, console, pci, and virtio_ring? kvm uses make sync,
but I think it is still useful to heave these headers exported
as they might be useful for other userspace tools.

I dont export virtio.h, because it does not seem to have useful
information for userspace and it requires scatterlist.h which is
also not exported. See also my other mail about your "virtio:
change config to guest endian." patch.

1adb0850a1 genirq: reenable a nobody cared disabled irq when a new driver arrives
Uwe Kleine-Koenig has some strange hardware where one of the shared
interrupts can be asserted during boot before the appropriate driver
loads. Requesting the shared irq line from another driver result in a
spurious interrupt storm which finally disables the interrupt line.

I have seen similar behaviour on resume before (the hardware does not
work anymore so I can not verify).

Change the spurious disable logic to increment the disable depth and
mark the interrupt with an extra flag which allows us to reenable the
interrupt when a new driver arrives which requests the same irq
line. In the worst case this will disable the irq again via the
spurious trap, but there is a decent chance that the new driver is the
one which can handle the already asserted interrupt and makes the box
usable again.

Eric Biederman said further: This case also happens on a regular basis
in kdump kernels where we deliberately don't shutdown the hardware
before starting the new kernel.  This patch should reduce the need for
using irqpoll in that situation by a small amount.

34990cf702 Add a new sysfs_streq() string comparison function
Add a new sysfs_streq() string comparison function, which ignores
the trailing newlines found in sysfs inputs.  By example:

	sysfs_streq("a", "b")	==> false
	sysfs_streq("a", "a")	==> true
	sysfs_streq("a", "a\n")	==> true
	sysfs_streq("a\n", "a")	==> true

This is intended to simplify parsing of sysfs inputs, letting them
avoid the need to manually strip off newlines from inputs.

7dffa3c673 ntp: handle leap second via timer
Remove the leap second handling from second_overflow(), which doesn't have to
check for it every second anymore.  With CONFIG_NO_HZ this also makes sure the
leap second is handled close to the full second.  Additionally this makes it
possible to abort a leap second properly by resetting the STA_INS/STA_DEL
status bits.

9f14f669d1 ntp: increase time_offset resolution
time_offset is already a 64bit value but its resolution barely used, so this
makes better use of it by replacing SHIFT_UPDATE with TICK_LENGTH_SHIFT.

Side note: the SHIFT_HZ in SHIFT_UPDATE was incorrect for CONFIG_NO_HZ and the

so the change isn't that big, but it saves a little in shifts by replacing

eea83d896e ntp: NTP4 user space bits update
This adds a few more things from the ntp nanokernel related to user space.
It's now possible to select the resolution used of some values via STA_NANO
and the kernel reports in which mode it works (pll/fll).

If some values for adjtimex() are outside the acceptable range, they are now
simply normalized instead of letting the syscall fail.  I removed
MOD_CLKA/MOD_CLKB as the mapping didn't really makes any sense, the kernel
doesn't support setting the clock.

f8bd2258e2 remove div_long_long_rem
x86 is the only arch right now, which provides an optimized for
div_long_long_rem and it has the downside that one has to be very careful that
the divide doesn't overflow.

The API is a little akward, as the arguments for the unsigned divide are
signed.  The signed version also doesn't handle a negative divisor and
produces worse code on 64bit archs.

There is little incentive to keep this API alive, so this converts the few
users to the new API.

2418f4f28f introduce explicit signed/unsigned 64bit divide
The current do_div doesn't explicitly say that it's unsigned and the signed
counterpart is missing, which is e.g.  needed when dealing with time values.

This introduces 64bit signed/unsigned divide functions which also attempts to
cleanup the somewhat awkward calling API, which often requires the use of
temporary variables for the dividend.  To avoid the need for temporary
variables everywhere for the remainder, each divide variant also provides a
version which doesn't return the remainder.

Each architecture can now provide optimized versions of these function,
otherwise generic fallback implementations will be used.

As an example I provided an alternative for the current x86 divide, which
avoids the asm casts and using an union allows gcc to generate better code.
It also avoids the upper divde in a few more cases, where the result is known
(i.e.  upper quotient is zero).

8ec970d856 [CRYPTO] api: Fix scatterwalk_sg_chain
When I backed out of using the generic sg chaining (as it isn't currently
portable) and introduced scatterwalk_sg_chain/scatterwalk_sg_next I left
out the sg_is_last check in the latter.  This causes it to potentially
dereference beyond the end of the sg array.

As most uses of scatterwalk_sg_next are bound by an overall length, this
only affected the chaining code in authenc and eseqiv. Thanks to Patrick
McHardy for identifying this problem.

This patch also clears the "last" bit on the head of the chained list as
it's no longer last.  This also went missing in scatterwalk_sg_chain and
is present in sg_chain.

5f464707c8 x86: fix HT cpu booting on 32-bit
Since recent smpboot 32/64-bit merge, my dual Xeon with HT has been
booting only 2 of its 4 cpus (when running an i386 kernel; but x86_64
is okay).  J.A. Magallón reports the same.

 native_cpu_up: bad cpu 2
 native_cpu_up: bad cpu 3

The mach-default cpu_present_to_apicid() was just returning cpu number
(2, 3) instead of apicid (6, 7): looks like we now need the x86_64 code
even for the i386 case.

Comparing with other versions of cpu_present_to_apicid(), it seems a
good idea to include an NR_CPUS test too, since cpu_present() doesn't
include that; but that wasn't a problem here, and may no problem at all.

Prior to that smpboot merge, my Xeon booted the two HT siblings on one
physical first, then the two siblings on the other physical after - when
i386, but alternated them when x86_64.  Since the merge, the x86_64
sequence is unchanged, but the i386 sequence is now like x86_64.

I prefer this consistency, and I prefer the new sequence: booting with
maxcpus=2 then uses the independent physicals without HT sharing.

* Wrapping the inclusions of generic.h in both big_endian.h and

* Shifting big_endian.h and little_endian.h from header-y to

3ac7fe5a4a infrastructure to debug (dynamic) objects
We can see an ever repeating problem pattern with objects of any kind in the
kernel:

1) freeing of active objects
2) reinitialization of active objects

Both problems can be hard to debug because the crash happens at a point where
we have no chance to decode the root cause anymore.  One problem spot are
kernel timers, where the detection of the problem often happens in interrupt
context and usually causes the machine to panic.

While working on a timer related bug report I had to hack specialized code
into the timer subsystem to get a reasonable hint for the root cause.  This
debug hack was fine for temporary use, but far from a mergeable solution due
to the intrusiveness into the timer code.

The code further lacked the ability to detect and report the root cause
instantly and keep the system operational.

Keeping the system operational is important to get hold of the debug
information without special debugging aids like serial consoles and special
knowledge of the bug reporter.

The problems described above are not restricted to timers, but timers tend to
expose it usually in a full system crash.  Other objects are less explosive,
but the symptoms caused by such mistakes can be even harder to debug.

Instead of creating specialized debugging code for the timer subsystem a
generic infrastructure is created which allows developers to verify their code
and provides an easy to enable debug facility for users in case of trouble.

The debugobjects core code keeps track of operations on static and dynamic
objects by inserting them into a hashed list and sanity checking them on
object operations and provides additional checks whenever kernel memory is
freed.

The tracked object operations are:
- initializing an object
- adding an object to a subsystem list
- deleting an object from a subsystem list

Each operation is sanity checked before the operation is executed and the
subsystem specific code can provide a fixup function which allows to prevent
the damage of the operation.  When the sanity check triggers a warning message
and a stack trace is printed.

The list of operations can be extended if the need arises.  For now it's
limited to the requirements of the first user (timers).

The core code enqueues the objects into hash buckets.  The hash index is
generated from the address of the object to simplify the lookup for the check
on kfree/vfree.  Each bucket has it's own spinlock to avoid contention on a
global lock.

The debug code can be compiled in without being active.  The runtime overhead
is minimal and could be optimized by asm alternatives.  A kernel command line
option enables the debugging code.

Thanks to Ingo Molnar for review, suggestions and cleanup patches.

fc3ba692a4 mm: Add NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP counter
Fuse will use temporary buffers to write back dirty data from memory mappings
(normal writes are done synchronously).  This is needed, because there cannot
be any guarantee about the time in which a write will complete.

By using temporary buffers, from the MM's point if view the page is written
back immediately.  If the writeout was due to memory pressure, this
effectively migrates data from a full zone to a less full zone.

This patch adds a new counter (NR_WRITEBACK_TEMP) for the number of pages used
as temporary buffers.

189d3c4a94 mm: bdi: allow setting a minimum for the bdi dirty limit
Under normal circumstances each device is given a part of the total write-back
cache that relates to its current avg writeout speed in relation to the other
devices.

min_ratio - allows one to assign a minimum portion of the write-back cache to
a particular device.  This is useful in situations where you might want to
provide a minimum QoS.  (One request for this feature came from flash based
storage people who wanted to avoid writing out at all costs - they of course
needed some pdflush hacks as well)

max_ratio - allows one to assign a maximum portion of the dirty limit to a
particular device.  This is useful in situations where you want to avoid one
device taking all or most of the write-back cache.  Eg.  an NFS mount that is
prone to get stuck, or a FUSE mount which you don't trust to play fair.

Add "min_ratio" to /sys/class/bdi.  This indicates the minimum percentage of
the global dirty threshold allocated to this bdi.

caafa43243 pidns: make pid->level and pid_ns->level unsigned
These values represent the nesting level of a namespace and pids living in it,
and it's always non-negative.

Turning this from int to unsigned int saves some space in pid.c (11 bytes on
x86 and 64 on ia64) by letting the compiler optimize the pid_nr_ns a bit.
E.g.  on ia64 this removes the sign extension calls, which compiler adds to
optimize access to pid->nubers[ns->level].

24336eaeec pids: introduce change_pid() helper
Based on Eric W. Biederman's idea.

Without tasklist_lock held task_session()/task_pgrp() can return NULL if the
caller races with setprgp()/setsid() which does detach_pid() + attach_pid().
This can happen even if task == current.

Intoduce the new helper, change_pid(), which should be used instead.  This way
the caller always sees the special pid != NULL, either old or new.

Also change the prototype of attach_pid(), it always returns 0 and nobody
check the returned value.
