Pull intel iommu updates from David Woodhouse:
"This lays a little of the groundwork for upcoming Shared Virtual
Memory support — fixing some bogus #defines for capability bits and
adding the new ones, and starting to use the new wider page tables
where we can, in anticipation of actually filling in the new fields
therein.It also allows graphics devices to be assigned to VM guests again.
This got broken in 3.17 by disallowing assignment of RMRR-afflicted
devices. Like USB, we do understand why there's an RMRR for graphics
devices — and unlike USB, it's actually sane. So we can make an
exception for graphics devices, just as we do USB controllers.Finally, tone down the warning about the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit, due to
persistent requests. X2APIC_OPT_OUT was added to the spec as a nasty
hack to allow broken BIOSes to forbid us from using X2APIC when they
do stupid and invasive things and would break if we did.Someone noticed that since Windows doesn't have full IOMMU support for
DMA protection, setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit made Windows avoid
initialising the IOMMU on the graphics unit altogether.This means that it would be available for use in "driver mode", where
the IOMMU registers are made available through a BAR of the graphics
device and the graphics driver can do SVM all for itself.So they started setting the X2APIC_OPT_OUT bit on *all* platforms with
SVM capabilities. And even the platforms which *might*, if the
planets had been aligned correctly, possibly have had SVM capability
but which in practice actually don't"* git://git.infradead.org/intel-iommu:

Pull chrome platform updates from Olof Johansson:
"Here's a set of updates to the Chrome OS platform drivers for this
merge window.Main new things this cycle is:
- Driver changes to expose the lightbar to users. With this, you can
make your own blinkenlights on Chromebook Pixels.- Changes in the way that the atmel_mxt trackpads are probed. The
laptop driver is trying to be smart and not instantiate the devices
that don't answer to probe. For the trackpad that can come up in
two modes (bootloader or regular), this gets complicated since the
driver already knows how to handle the two modes including the
actual addresses used. So now the laptop driver needs to know more
too, instantiating the regular address even if the bootloader one
is the probe that passed.- mfd driver improvements by Javier Martines Canillas, and a few
bugfixes from him, kbuild and myself"* tag 'chrome-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/olof/chrome-platform:

I_DIO_WAKEUP is never directly used, but fix it up anyway.
Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen
Signed-off-by: Al Viro -
do_blockdev_direct_IO() increments and decrements the inode
->i_dio_count for each IO operation. It does this to protect against
truncate of a file. Block devices don't need this sort of protection.For a capable multiqueue setup, this atomic int is the only shared
state between applications accessing the device for O_DIRECT, and it
presents a scaling wall for that. In my testing, as much as 30% of
system time is spent incrementing and decrementing this value. A mixed
read/write workload improved from ~2.5M IOPS to ~9.6M IOPS, with
better latencies too. Before:clat percentiles (usec):

DLM. Code is not ready for general use and triggers a WARNING if
used. However it is looking good and mostly done and having in
mainline will help co-ordinate development.- RAID5/6 can now batch multiple (4K wide) stripe_heads so as to
handle a full (chunk wide) stripe as a single unit.- RAID6 can now perform read-modify-write cycles which should help
performance on larger arrays: 6 or more devices.- RAID5/6 stripe cache now grows and shrinks dynamically. The value
set is used as a minimum.- Resync is now allowed to go a little faster than the 'mininum' when
there is competing IO. How much faster depends on the speed of the
devices, so the effective minimum should scale with device speed to

Pull initial ACPI support for arm64 from Will Deacon:
"This series introduces preliminary ACPI 5.1 support to the arm64
kernel using the "hardware reduced" profile. We don't support any
peripherals yet, so it's fairly limited in scope:- MEMORY init (UEFI)
- ACPI discovery (RSDP via UEFI)
- CPU init (FADT)
- GIC init (MADT)
- SMP boot (MADT + PSCI)
- ACPI Kconfig options (dependent on EXPERT)
ACPI for arm64 has been in development for a while now and hardware
has been available that can boot with either FDT or ACPI tables. This
has been made possible by both changes to the ACPI spec to cater for
ARM-based machines (known as "hardware-reduced" in ACPI parlance) but
also a Linaro-driven effort to get this supported on top of the Linux
kernel. This pull request is the result of that work.These changes allow us to initialise the CPUs, interrupt controller,
and timers via ACPI tables, with memory information and cmdline coming
from EFI. We don't support a hybrid ACPI/FDT scheme. Of course,
there is still plenty of work to do (a serial console would be nice!)
but I expect that to happen on a per-driver basis after this core
series has been merged.Anyway, the diff stat here is fairly horrible, but splitting this up
and merging it via all the different subsystems would have been
extremely painful. Instead, we've got all the relevant Acks in place
and I've not seen anything other than trivial (Kconfig) conflicts in
-next (for completeness, I've included my resolution below). Nearly
half of the insertions fall under Documentation/.So, we'll see how this goes. Right now, it all depends on EXPERT and

v2: gracefully handle the case where some dentry pointers end up NULL
and be more dilligent about zeroing out dentry pointersWe currently have a problem that SELinux policy is being enforced when
creating debugfs files. If a debugfs file is created as a side effect of
doing some syscall, then that creation can fail if the SELinux policy
for that process prevents it.This seems wrong. We don't do that for files under /proc, for instance,
so Bruce has proposed a patch to fix that.While discussing that patch however, Greg K.H. stated:
"No kernel code should care / fail if a debugfs function fails, so
please fix up the sunrpc code first."This patch converts all of the sunrpc debugfs setup code to be void
return functins, and the callers to not look for errors from those
functions.This should allow rpc_clnt and rpc_xprt creation to work, even if the
kernel fails to create debugfs files for some reason.Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman

This patch adds a GETATTR to the end of ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE
operations so we can set the updated inode size and change attribute
directly. DEALLOCATE will still need to release pagecache pages, so
nfs42_proc_deallocate() now calls truncate_pagecache_range() before
contacting the server.Signed-off-by: Anna Schumaker

Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris:
"Common MTD:- Add Kconfig option for keeping both the 'master' and 'partition'
MTDs registered as devices. This would really make a better
default if we could do it over, as it allows a lot more flexibility
in (1) determining the flash topology of the system from user-space
and (2) adding temporary partitions at runtime (ioctl(BLKPG)).Unfortunately, this would possibly cause user-space breakage, as it
will cause renumbering of the /dev/mtdX devices. We'll see if we
can change this in the future, as there have already been a few
people looking for this feature, and I know others have just been
working around our current limitations instead of fixing them this
way.- Along with the previous change, add some additional information to
sysfs, so user-space can read the offset of each partition within
its master deviceSPI NOR:
- add new device tree compatible binding to represent the
mostly-compatible class of SPI NOR flash which can be detected by
their extended JEDEC ID bytes, cutting down the duplication of our
ID tables- misc. new IDs
Various other miscellaneous fixes and changes"

This is an improved straw bucket that correctly avoids any data movement
between items A and B when neither A nor B's weights are changed. Said
differently, if we adjust the weight of item C (including adding it anew
or removing it completely), we will only see inputs move to or from C,
never between other items in the bucket.Notably, there is not intermediate scaling factor that needs to be
calculated. The mapping function is a simple function of the item weights.The below commits were squashed together into this one (mostly to avoid
adding and then yanking a ~6000 lines worth of crush_ln_table):- crush: add a straw2 bucket type

Glue it altogehter. The raid6 rmw path should work the same as the
already existing raid5 logic. So emulate the prexor handling/flags
and split functions as needed.1) Enable xor_syndrome() in the async layer.
2) Split ops_run_prexor() into RAID4/5 and RAID6 logic. Xor the syndrome
at the start of a rmw run as we did it before for the single parity.3) Take care of rmw run in ops_run_reconstruct6(). Again process only
the changed pages to get syndrome back into sync.4) Enhance set_syndrome_sources() to fill NULL pages if we are in a rmw
run. The lower layers will calculate start & end pages from that and
call the xor_syndrome() correspondingly.5) Adapt the several places where we ignored Q handling up to now.

v3: s-o-b comment, explanation of performance and descision for
the start/stop implementationImplementing rmw functionality for RAID6 requires optimized syndrome
calculation. Up to now we can only generate a complete syndrome. The
target P/Q pages are always overwritten. With this patch we provide
a framework for inplace P/Q modification. In the first place simply
fill those functions with NULL values.xor_syndrome() has two additional parameters: start & stop. These
will indicate the first and last page that are changing during a
rmw run. That makes it possible to avoid several unneccessary loops
and speed up calculation. The caller needs to implement the following
logic to make the functions work.1) xor_syndrome(disks, start, stop, ...): "Remove" all data of source
blocks inside P/Q between (and including) start and end.2) modify any block with start
