Pull x86 cleanups from Peter Anvin:
"The biggest textual change is the cleanup to use symbolic constants
for x86 trap values.The only *functional* change and the reason for the x86/x32 dependency
is the move of is_ia32_task() into so that it can
be used in other code that needs to understand if a system call comes
from the compat entry point (and therefore uses i386 system call
numbers) or not. One intended user for that is the BPF system call
filter. Moving it out of means we can define it
unconditionally, returning always true on i386."* 'x86-cleanups-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:

This reverts commit b43d17f319f2c502b17139d1cf70731b2b62c644.
Dave Jones reports that it causes lockups on his laptop, and his debug
output showed a lot of processes hung waiting for page_writeback (or
more commonly - processes hung waiting for a lock that was held during
that writeback wait).The page_writeback hint made Ted suggest that Dave look at this commit,
and Dave verified that reverting it makes his problems go away.Ted says:
"That commit fixes a race which is seen when you write into fallocated
(and hence uninitialized) disk blocks under *very* heavy memory
pressure. Furthermore, although theoretically it could trigger under
normal direct I/O writes, it only seems to trigger if you are issuing
a huge number of AIO writes, such that a just-written page can get
evicted from memory, and then read back into memory, before the
workqueue has a chance to update the extent tree.This race has been around for a little over a year, and no one noticed
until two months ago; it only happens under fairly exotic conditions,
and in fact even after trying very hard to create a simple repro under
lab conditions, we could only reproduce the problem and confirm the
fix on production servers running MySQL on very fast PCIe-attached
flash devices.Given that Dave was able to hit this problem pretty quickly, if we
confirm that this commit is at fault, the only reasonable thing to do
is to revert it IMO."Reported-and-tested-by: Dave Jones

Pull nfsd changes from Bruce Fields:
Highlights:
- Benny Halevy and Tigran Mkrtchyan implemented some more 4.1 features,
moving us closer to a complete 4.1 implementation.
- Bernd Schubert fixed a long-standing problem with readdir cookies on
ext2/3/4.
- Jeff Layton performed a long-overdue overhaul of the server reboot
recovery code which will allow us to deprecate the current code (a
rather unusual user of the vfs), and give us some needed flexibility
for further improvements.
- Like the client, we now support numeric uid's and gid's in the
auth_sys case, allowing easier upgrades from NFSv2/v3 to v4.x.Plus miscellaneous bugfixes and cleanup.
Thanks to everyone!
There are also some delegation fixes waiting on vfs review that I
suppose will have to wait for 3.5. With that done I think we'll finally
turn off the "EXPERIMENTAL" dependency for v4 (though that's mostly
symbolic as it's been on by default in distro's for a while).And the list of 4.1 todo's should be achievable for 3.5 as well:
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index.php/Server_4.0_and_4.1_issues

Remove the run_tests script and launch the selftests by calling "make
run_tests" from the selftests top directory instead. This delegates to
the Makefile in each selftest directory, where it is decided how to launch
the local test.This removes the need to add each selftest directory to the now removed
"run_tests" top script.Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker
