efficiently read hw eq contexts.
Add cxgb4_sync_txq_pidx() - called by iw_cxgb4 to sync up the sw/hw

Add dbfifo_int_thresh to cxgb4_lld_info so iw_cxgb4 knows the threshold.

The generic PM domains core code currently requires domains to be in
the "power on" state for adding devices to them, but this limitation
turns out to be inconvenient in some situations, so remove it.
For this purpose, make __pm_genpd_add_device() set the device's
need_restore flag if the domain is in the "power off" state, so that
the device's "restore state" (usually .runtime_resume()) callback
is executed when it is resumed after the domain has been turned on.
If the domain is in the "power on" state, the device's need_restore
flag will be cleared by __pm_genpd_add_device(), so that its "save
state" (usually .runtime_suspend()) callback is executed when the
domain is about to be turned off. However, since that default
behavior need not be always desirable, add a helper function
pm_genpd_dev_need_restore() allowing a device's need_restore flag
to be set/unset at any time.

The PRE_BUILD and POST_BUILD options of ktest are added to allow the
user to add temporary patch to the system and remove it on builds. This
is sometimes use to take a change from another git branch and add it to
a series without the fix so that this series can be tested, when an
unrelated bug exists in the series.
The problem comes when a tagged commit is being used. For example, if
v3.2 is being tested, and we add a patch to it, the kernelrelease for
that commit will be 3.2.0+, but without the patch the version will be
3.2.0. This can cause problems when the kernelrelease is determined for
creating the /lib/modules directory. The kernel booting has the '+' but
the module directory will not, and the modules will be missing for that
boot, and may not allow the kernel to succeed.
The fix is to put the creation of the kernelrelease in the POST_BUILD
logic, before it applies the POST_BUILD operation. The POST_BUILD is
where the patch may be removed, removing the '+' from the kernelrelease.
The calculation of the kernelrelease will also stay in its current
location but will be ignored if it was already calculated previously.

Some discussion with the glibc mailing lists revealed that this was
necessary for 64-bit platforms with MIPS-like sign-extension rules
for 32-bit values. The original symptom was that passing (uid_t)-1 to
setreuid() was failing in programs linked -pthread because of the "setxid"
mechanism for passing setxid-type function arguments to the syscall code.
SYSCALL_WRAPPERS handles ensuring that all syscall arguments end up with
proper sign-extension and is thus the appropriate fix for this problem.
On other platforms (s390, powerpc, sparc64, and mips) this was fixed
in 2.6.28.6. The general issue is tracked as CVE-2009-0029.

( net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb() )
- Must be IRQ safe (non NAPI drivers can use it)
- Must not leak the frag if build_skb() fails to allocate sk_buff
This patch introduces netdev_alloc_frag() for drivers willing to
use build_skb() instead of __netdev_alloc_skb() variants.
Factorize code so that :
__dev_alloc_skb() is a wrapper around __netdev_alloc_skb(), and
dev_alloc_skb() a wrapper around netdev_alloc_skb()
Use __GFP_COLD flag.

As iwlwifi use fat skbs, it should not pull too much data in skb->head,
and particularly no tcp data payload, or splice() is slower, and TCP
coalescing is disabled. Copying payload to userland also involves at
least two copies (part from header, part from fragment)
Each layer will pull its header from the fragment as needed.
(on 64bit arches, skb_tailroom(skb) at this point is 192 bytes)
With this patch applied, I have a major reduction of collapsed/pruned
TCP packets, a nice increase of TCPRcvCoalesce counter, and overall
better Internet User experience.
Small packets are still using a fragless skb, so that page can be reused
by the driver.

And huge number of bug fixes:
* Fixed a write ordering problem on SyncTarget nodes for a write

only be triggered with a device that has a firmware that
actually reorders writes to the same block
* Fixed a race between disconnect and receive_state, that could cause
a IO lockup
* Fixed resend/resubmit for requests with disk or network timeout
* Make sure that hard state changed do not disturb the connection
establishing process (I.e. detach due to an IO error). When the
bug was triggered it caused a retry in the connect process
* Postpone soft state changes to no disturb the connection
establishing process (I.e. becoming primary). When the bug
was triggered it could cause both nodes going into SyncSource state
* Fixed a refcount leak that could cause failures when trying to
unload a protocol family modules, that was used by DRBD
* Dedicated page pool for meta data IOs
* Deny normal detach (as opposed to --forced) if the user tries
to detach from the last UpToDate disk in the resource
* Fixed a possible protocol error that could be caused by
"unusual" BIOs.
* Enforce the disk-timeout option also on meta-data IO operations
* Implemented stable bitmap pages when we do a full write out of
the bitmap
* Fixed a rare compatibility issue with DRBD's older than 8.3.7
when negotiating the bio_size
* Fixed a rare race condition where an empty resync could stall with

* Made the re-establishing of connections quicker, if it got a broken pipe

The fix in commit 1b1287032 (gpio/omap: fix missing check in
*_runtime_suspend()) exposed another bug in the context restore path.
Currently, the per-bank context restore happens whenever the context
loss count is different in runtime suspend and runtime resume *and*
whenever the per-bank contex_loss_count == 0:
if (context_lost_cnt_after != bank->context_loss_count ||
!context_lost_cnt_after) {
omap_gpio_restore_context(bank);
Restoring context when the context_lost_cnt_after == 0 is clearly
wrong, since this will be true until the first off-mode transition
(which could be never, if off-mode is never enabled.) This check
causes the context to be restored on *every* runtime PM transition.
Before commit 1b1287032 (gpio/omap: fix missing check in
*_runtime_suspend()), this code was never executed in non-OFF mode, so
there were never spurious context restores happening. After that
change though, spurious context restores could happen.
To fix, simply remove the !context_lost_cnt_after check. It is not
needed.
This bug was found when noticing that the smc911x NIC on 3530/Overo
was not working, and git bisect tracked it down to this patch. It
seems that the spurious context restore was causing the smsc911x to
not be properly probed on this platform.

Block layer now handles O_EXCL in a generic way for block devices.
The semantics is however different for floppy and all other block devices,
as floppy driver contains its own O_EXCL handling.
The semantics for all-but-floppy bdevs is "there can be at most one O_EXCL
open of this file", while for floppy bdev the semantics is "if someone has
the bdev open with O_EXCL, noone else can open it".
There is actual userspace-observable change in behavior because of this
since commit e525fd89d3 ("block: make blkdev_get/put() handle exclusive
access") -- on kernels containing this commit, mount of /dev/fd0 causes
the fd0 block device be claimed with _EXCL, preventing subsequent
open(/dev/fd0).
Bring things back into shape, i.e. make it possible, analogically to
other block devices, to mount the floppy and open() it afterwards --
remove the floppy-specific handling and let the generic bdev code O_EXCL
handling take over.

There are several races in floppy driver between bottom half
(scheduled_work) and timers (fd_timeout, fd_timer). Due to slowness
of the actual floppy devices, those races are never (at least to my
knowledge) triggered on a bare floppy metal. However on virtualized
(emulated) floppy drives, which are of course magnitudes faster
than the real ones, these races trigger reliably. They usually exhibit
themselves as NULL pointer dereferences during DMA setup, such as

This patch converts all the timers and bottom halfs to be processed in a single

performed quite some testing (on real hardware), which didn't reveal any issues
(this includes not only writing and reading data, but also formatting
(unfortunately I didn't find any Double-Density disks any more)). Ability to
handle errors properly (supplying known bad floppies) has also been verified.

This should help the merge with the at91 adc driver that is currently
in the staging tree.

ARM: at91: Add ADC driver to at91sam9260/at91sam9g20 dtsi files

Now that the bulk of at91sam9g20-related nodes are located in at91sam9260.dtsi,
we have to re-create the path to this ADC node for SoC specific parts.
