Since commit 63a4cc24867d, bio->bi_rw contains flags in the lower
portion and the op code in the higher portions. This means that
old code that relies on manually setting bi_rw is most likely
going to be broken. Instead of letting that brokeness linger,
rename the member, to force old and out-of-tree code to break
at compile time instead of at runtime.No intended functional changes in this commit.

The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
attributes passed by pointer. Thus the pointer can point to const data.
However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead unsigned
long will do fine:1. This is just simpler. Both in terms of reading the code and setting
attributes. Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
attributes are passed by value.Semantic patches for this change (at least most of them):

KVM/ARM Changes for v4.8 - Take 2
Includes GSI routing support to go along with the new VGIC and a small fix that
has been cooking in -next for a while. -
Blacklisting a module in linux has long been a problem. The current
procedure is to use rd.blacklist=module_name, however, that doesn't
cover the case after the initramfs and before a boot prompt (where one
is supposed to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to blacklist
runtime loading). Using rd.shell to get an early prompt is hit-or-miss,
and doesn't cover all situations AFAICT.This patch adds this functionality of permanently blacklisting a module
by its name via the kernel parameter module_blacklist=module_name.[v2]: Rusty, use core_param() instead of __setup() which simplifies
things.[v3]: Rusty, undo wreckage from strsep()
[v4]: Rusty, simpler version of blacklisted()

Pull orangefs update from Martin Brandenburg:
"Kernel side caching and executable bugfixThis allows OrangeFS to utilize the dcache and adds an in kernel
attribute cache. We previously used the user side client for this
purpose.We see a modest performance increase on small file operations. For
example, without the cache, compiling coreutils takes about 17
minutes. With the patch and a 50 millisecond timeout for
dcache_timeout_msecs and getattr_timeout_msecs (the default),
compiling coreutils takes about 6 minutes 20 seconds. On the same
hardware, compiling coreutils on an xfs filesystem takes 90 seconds.
We see similar improvements with mdtest and a test involving writing,
reading, and deleting a large number of small files.Interested parties can review more data at the following URL.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1v4aUeppKexIbRMz_Yn9k4eaM3uy2KCaPoe_93YKWOtA/pubhtml
The eventual goal of this is to allow getdents to turn into a
readdirplus to the OrangeFS server. The cache will be filled then,
which should provide a performance benefit to the common case of
readdir followed by getattr on each entry (i.e. ls -l).This also fixes a bug. When orangefs_inode_permission was added, it
did not collect i_size from the OrangeFS server, since this presses an
unnecessary load on the OrangeFS server. However, it left a case
where i_size is never initialized. Then running an executable could
fail.With this patch, size is always collected to be inserted into the
cache. Thus the bug disappears. If this patch is not accepted during
this merge window, we will send a one-line band-aid for this bug
instead"* tag 'for-linus-v4.8' of git://github.com/martinbrandenburg/linux:

Add channelized messaging driver to support native RapidIO messaging
exchange between multiple senders/recipients on devices that use kernel
RapidIO subsystem services.This device driver is the result of collaboration within the RapidIO.org
Software Task Group (STG) between Texas Instruments, Prodrive
Technologies, Nokia Networks, BAE and IDT. Additional input was
received from other members of RapidIO.org.The objective was to create a character mode driver interface which
exposes messaging capabilities of RapidIO endpoint devices (mports)
directly to applications, in a manner that allows the numerous and
varied RapidIO implementations to interoperate.This char mode device driver allows user-space applications to setup
messaging communication channels using single shared RapidIO messaging
mailbox.By default this driver uses RapidIO MBOX_1 (MBOX_0 is reserved for use by
RIONET Ethernet emulation driver).[weiyj.lk@gmail.com: rapidio/rio_cm: fix return value check in riocm_init()]

Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how
userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options:* ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace.
* on - unlimited logging from userspace
* off - logging from userspace gets ignoredThe default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it.
This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do
that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane
levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps
around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a
sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of
survival from all the spamming.It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is
booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line.Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl
interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg.That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been
supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a
one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime.
This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the
logging on us through sysctl(2).This patch is based on previous patches from Linus and Steven.

Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris:
"NAND:Quoting Boris:
'This pull request contains only one notable change:
- Addition of the MTK NAND controller driverAnd a bunch of specific NAND driver improvements/fixes. Here are the
changes that are worth mentioning:
- A few fixes/improvements for the xway NAND controller driver
- A few fixes for the sunxi NAND controller driver
- Support for DMA in the sunxi NAND driver
- Support for the sunxi NAND controller IP embedded in A23/A33 SoCs
- Addition for bitflips detection in erased pages to the brcmnand driver
- Support for new brcmnand IPs
- Update of the OMAP-GPMC binding to support DMA channel description'In addition, some small fixes around error handling, etc., as well
as one long-standing corner case issue (2.6.20, I think?) with
writing 1 byte less than a page.NOR:
- rework some error handling on reads and writes, so we can better
handle (for instance) SPI controllers which have limitations on
their maximum transfer size- add new Cadence Quad SPI flash controller driver
- add new Atmel QSPI flash controller driver
- add new Hisilicon SPI flash controller driver
- support a few new flash, and update supported features on others
- fix the logic used for detecting a fully-unlocked flash
And other miscellaneous small fixes"
