Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This patch set consists of the usual driver updates (ufs, storvsc,
pm8001 hpsa). It also has removal of the user space target driver
code (everyone is using LIO now), a partial PCI MSI-X update, more
multi-queue updates, conversion to 64 bit LUNs (so we could
theoretically cope with any LUN returned by a device) and placeholder
support for the ZBC device type (Shingle drives), plus an assortment
of minor updates and bug fixes"* tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi: (143 commits)

"A rather large update of timers, timekeeping & co- Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)- Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.
- Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.
- Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs. Some of it
definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.- Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.
- A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing. This is a
long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
traces. With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
for correlation of traces accross separate machines.- Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.
- A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.
- Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.
- New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe. I'm really
impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
specific timers.[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]

of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for

Generic implementation of a resizable, scalable, concurrent hash table
based on [0]. The implementation supports both, fixed size keys specified
via an offset and length, or arbitrary keys via own hash and compare
functions.Lookups are lockless and protected as RCU read side critical sections.
Automatic growing/shrinking based on user configurable watermarks is
available while allowing concurrent lookups to take place.Objects to be hashed must include a struct rhash_head. The reason for not
using the existing struct hlist_head is that the expansion and shrinking
will have two buckets point to a single entry which would lead in obscure
reverse chaining behaviour.Code includes a boot selftest if CONFIG_TEST_RHASHTABLE is defined.

Currently, we have a 3-stage seeding process in prandom():
Phase 1 is from the early actual initialization of prandom()
subsystem which happens during core_initcall() and remains
most likely until the beginning of late_initcall() phase.
Here, the system might not have enough entropy available
for seeding with strong randomness from the random driver.
That means, we currently have a 32bit weak LCG() seeding
the PRNG status register 1 and mixing that successively
into the other 3 registers just to get it up and running.Phase 2 starts with late_initcall() phase resp. when the
random driver has initialized its non-blocking pool with
enough entropy. At that time, we throw away *all* inner
state from its 4 registers and do a full reseed with strong
randomness.Phase 3 starts right after that and does a periodic reseed
with random slack of status register 1 by a strong random
source again.A problem in phase 1 is that during bootup data structures
can be initialized, e.g. on module load time, and thus access
a weakly seeded prandom and are never changed for the rest
of their live-time, thus carrying along the results from a
week seed. Lets make sure that current but also future users
access a possibly better early seeded prandom.This patch therefore improves phase 1 by trying to make it
more 'unpredictable' through mixing in seed from a possible
hardware source. Now, the mix-in xors inner state with the
outcome of either of the two functions arch_get_random_{,seed}_int(),
preferably arch_get_random_seed_int() as it likely represents
a non-deterministic random bit generator in hw rather than
a cryptographically secure PRNG in hw. However, not all might
have the first one, so we use the PRNG as a fallback if
available. As we xor the seed into the current state, the
worst case would be that a hardware source could be unverifiable
compromised or backdoored. In that case nevertheless it
would be as good as our original early seeding function
prandom_seed_very_weak() since we mix through xor which is
entropy preserving.Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

Blk-mq drivers usually preallocate their S/G list as part of the request,
but if we want to support the very large S/G lists currently supported by
the SCSI code that would tie up a lot of memory in the preallocated request
pool. Add support to the scatterlist code so that it can initialize a
S/G list that uses a preallocated first chunks and dynamically allocated
additional chunks. That way the scsi-mq code can preallocate a first
page worth of S/G entries as part of the request, and dynamically extend
the S/G list when needed.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso

crashes, from Eric Dumazet.8) Interpret the NAPI budget correctly in the new systemport driver,
from Florian Fainelli.9) VLAN code frees percpu stats in the wrong place, leading to crashes
in the get stats handler. From Eric Dumazet.10) TCP sockets doing a repair can crash with a divide by zero, because
we invoke tcp_push() with an MSS value of zero. Just skip that part
of the sendmsg paths in repair mode. From Christoph Paasch.11) IRQ affinity bug fixes in mlx4 driver from Amir Vadai.
12) Don't ignore path MTU icmp messages with a zero mtu, machines out
there still spit them out, and all of our per-protocol handlers for
PMTU can cope with it just fine. From Edward Allcutt.13) Some NETDEV_CHANGE notifier invocations were not passing in the
correct kind of cookie as the argument, from Loic Prylli.14) Fix crashes in long multicast/broadcast reassembly, from Jon Paul

Jan points out that I forgot to make the needed fixes to the
lz4_uncompress_unknownoutputsize() function to mirror the changes done
in lz4_decompress() with regards to potential pointer overflows.The only in-kernel user of this function is the zram code, which only
takes data from a valid compressed buffer that it made itself, so it's
not a big issue. But due to external kernel modules using this
function, it's better to be safe here.Reported-by: Jan Beulich

These updates fix one bug in the component helper where the matched
components are not properly cleaned up when the master fails to bind.
I'll provide a version of this for stable trees if it's deemed that
we need to backport it.The second patch causes the component helper to ignore duplicate
matches when adding components - this is something that was originally
needed for imx-drm, but since that has now been updated, we no longer
need to skip over a component which has already been matched.The final patch starts the process of updating the component helper
API to achieve two goals: to allow the API to be more efficient when
deferred probing occurs, and to allow for future improvements to the
component helper without having a major impact on the users.This represents groundwork for some other changes; once this has been
merged, I will then send two further pull requests (one for the staging
tree, and one for the DRM tree) to update the drivers to the new API.
This will result in these three commits being shared with those trees.

Now that explicit invocation of percpu_ref_exit() is necessary to free
the percpu counter, we can implement percpu_ref_reinit() which
reinitializes a released percpu_ref. This can be used implement
scalable gating switch which can be drained and then re-opened without
worrying about memory allocation failures.percpu_ref_is_zero() is added to be used in a sanity check in
percpu_ref_exit(). As this function will be useful for other purposes
too, make it a public interface.v2: Use smp_read_barrier_depends() instead of smp_load_acquire(). We
only need data dep barrier and smp_load_acquire() is stronger and
heavier on some archs. Spotted by Lai Jiangshan.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

Currently, a percpu_ref undoes percpu_ref_init() automatically by
freeing the allocated percpu area when the percpu_ref is killed.
While seemingly convenient, this has the following niggles.* It's impossible to re-init a released reference counter without
going through re-allocation.* In the similar vein, it's impossible to initialize a percpu_ref
count with static percpu variables.* We need and have an explicit destructor anyway for failure paths -
percpu_ref_cancel_init().This patch removes the automatic percpu counter freeing in
percpu_ref_kill_rcu() and repurposes percpu_ref_cancel_init() into a
generic destructor now named percpu_ref_exit(). percpu_ref_destroy()
is considered but it gets confusing with percpu_ref_kill() while
"exit" clearly indicates that it's the counterpart of
percpu_ref_init().All percpu_ref_cancel_init() users are updated to invoke
percpu_ref_exit() instead and explicit percpu_ref_exit() calls are
added to the destruction path of all percpu_ref users.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

percpu_ref->pcpu_count is a percpu pointer with a status flag in its
lowest bit. As such, it always goes through arithmetic operations
which is very cumbersome to do on a pointer. It has to be first
casted to unsigned long and then back.Let's just make the field unsigned long so that we can skip the first
casts. While at it, rename it to pcpu_counter_ptr to clarify that
it's a pointer value.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

* All four percpu_ref_*() operations implemented in the header file
perform the same operation to determine whether the percpu_ref is
alive and extract the percpu pointer. Factor out the common logic
into __pcpu_ref_alive(). This doesn't change the generated code.* There are a couple places in percpu-refcount.c which masks out
PCPU_REF_DEAD to obtain the percpu pointer. Factor it out into
pcpu_count_ptr().* The above changes make the WARN_ON_ONCE() conditional at the top of
percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm() the only user of REF_STATUS(). Test
PCPU_REF_DEAD directly and remove REF_STATUS().This patch doesn't introduce any functional change.

percpu-refcount currently reserves two lowest bits of its percpu
pointer to indicate its state; however, only one bit is used for
PCPU_REF_DEAD.Simplify it by removing PCPU_STATUS_BITS/MASK and testing
PCPU_REF_DEAD directly. This also allows the compiler to choose a
more efficient instruction depending on the architecture.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo
