We have two APIs for compatiblity timespec/val, with confusingly
similar names. compat_(get|put)_time(val|spec) *do* handle the case
where COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is set, whereas
(get|put)_compat_time(val|spec) do not. This is an accident waiting
to happen.Clean it up by favoring the full-service version; the limited version
is replaced with double-underscore versions static to kernel/compat.c.A common pattern is to convert a struct timespec to kernel format in
an allocation on the user stack. Unfortunately it is open-coded in
several places. Since this allocation isn't actually needed if
COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME is true (since user format == kernel format)
encapsulate that whole pattern into the function
compat_convert_timespec(). An equivalent function should be written
for struct timeval if it is needed in the future.Finally, get rid of compat_(get|put)_timeval_convert(): each was only
used once, and the latter was not even doing what the function said
(no conversion actually was being done.) Moving the conversion into
compat_sys_settimeofday() itself makes the code much more similar to
sys_settimeofday() itself.v3: Remove unused compat_convert_timeval().
v2: Drop bogus "const" in the destination argument for
compat_convert_time*().Cc: Mauro Carvalho Chehab

With commit d8d14bd09cdd ("fs/compat: fix lookup_dcookie() parameter

Revert commit ef83b0781a73 "PCI: Remove from bus_list and release
resources in pci_release_dev()" that made some nasty race conditions
become possible. For example, if a Thunderbolt link is unplugged
and then replugged immediately, the pci_release_dev() resulting from
the hot-remove code path may be racing with the hot-add code path
which after that commit causes various kinds of breakage to happen
(up to and including a hard crash of the whole system).Moreover, the problem that commit ef83b0781a73 attempted to address
cannot happen any more after commit 8a4c5c329de7 "PCI: Check parent
kobject in pci_destroy_dev()", because pci_destroy_dev() will now
return immediately if it has already been executed for the given
device.Note, however, that the invocation of msi_remove_pci_irq_vectors()
removed by commit ef83b0781a73 from pci_free_resources() along with
the other changes made by it is not added back because of subsequent
code changes depending on that modification.Fixes: ef83b0781a73 (PCI: Remove from bus_list and release resources in pci_release_dev())

Move sync_filesystem() after sb_prepare_remount_readonly(). If writers
sneak in anywhere from sync_filesystem() to sb_prepare_remount_readonly()
it can cause inodes to be dirtied and writeback to occur well after

needs to be reduced, because the particular BIOS issue indicated by

voltage regulators. Fix from Mark Brown that works around a 3.13
regression in lm90 on PCs occuring if the regulator API is enabled.- Prevent the Exynos4 devfreq driver from being built on multiplatform,
because it depends on things that aren't available during such builds.

so modify the kernel's ACPICA code to follow the upstream in that
respect (only one variable definition is affected) to reduce
divergences between the two. From Lv Zheng.- Make the ACPI device PM code use ACPI_COMPANION() instead of its own

Commit 384a48d71520 "ALSA: hda: HDMI: Support codecs with fewer cvts
than pins" dynamically enabled each pin widget's PIN_OUT only when the
pin was actively in use. This was required on certain NVIDIA CODECs for
correct operation. Specifically, if multiple pin widgets each had their
mux input select the same audio converter widget and each pin widget had
PIN_OUT enabled, then only one of the pin widgets would actually receive
the audio, and often not the one the user wanted!However, this apparently broke some Intel systems, and commit
6169b673618b "ALSA: hda - Always turn on pins for HDMI/DP" reverted the
dynamic setting of PIN_OUT. This in turn broke the afore-mentioned NVIDIA
CODECs.This change supports either dynamic or static handling of PIN_OUT,
selected by a flag set up during CODEC initialization. This flag is
enabled for all recent NVIDIA GPUs.Reported-by: Uosis

Current xen-selfballoon driver is too aggressive which may cause OOM be
triggered more often. Eg. this bug reported by James:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/21/158There are two mainly reasons:
1) The original goal_page didn't consider some pages used by kernel space, like
slab pages and pages used by device drivers.2) The balloon driver may not give back memory to guest OS fast enough when the
workload suddenly aquries a lot of physical memory.In both cases, the guest OS will suffer from memory pressure and OOM may
be triggered.The fix is make xen-selfballoon driver not that aggressive by adding extra 10%
of total ram pages to goal_page.
It's more valuable to keep the guest system reliable and response faster than
balloon out these 10% pages to XEN.Signed-off-by: Bob Liu

The grant mapping API does m2p_override unnecessarily: only gntdev needs it,
for blkback and future netback patches it just cause a lock contention, as
those pages never go to userspace. Therefore this series does the following:
- the original functions were renamed to __gnttab_[un]map_refs, with a new
parameter m2p_override
- based on m2p_override either they follow the original behaviour, or just set
the private flag and call set_phys_to_machine
- gnttab_[un]map_refs are now a wrapper to call __gnttab_[un]map_refs with
m2p_override false
- a new function gnttab_[un]map_refs_userspace provides the old behaviourIt also removes a stray space from page.h and change ret to 0 if
XENFEAT_auto_translated_physmap, as that is the only possible return value
there.v2:
- move the storing of the old mfn in page->index to gnttab_map_refs
- move the function header update to a separate patchv3:
- a new approach to retain old behaviour where it needed
- squash the patches into onev4:
- move out the common bits from m2p* functions, and pass pfn/mfn as parameter
- clear page->private before doing anything with the page, so m2p_find_override
won't race with thisv5:
- change return value handling in __gnttab_[un]map_refs
- remove a stray space in page.h
- add detail why ret = 0 now at some placesv6:
- don't pass pfn to m2p* functions, just get it locallySigned-off-by: Zoltan Kiss

Avoid returning incorrect acl mask attributes when the server doesn't

We have the following means for encoding writable or dirty ptes:
PTE_DIRTY PTE_RDONLY
!pte_dirty && !pte_write 0 1
!pte_dirty && pte_write 0 1
pte_dirty && !pte_write 1 1
pte_dirty && pte_write 1 0So we can't distinguish between writable clean ptes and read only
ptes. This can cause problems with ptes being incorrectly flagged as
read only when they are writable but not dirty.This patch introduces a new software bit PTE_WRITE which allows us to
correctly identify writable ptes. PTE_RDONLY is now only clear for
valid ptes where a page is both writable and dirty.Signed-off-by: Steve Capper

Pull btrfs updates from Chris Mason:
"This is a pretty big pull, and most of these changes have been
floating in btrfs-next for a long time. Filipe's properties work is a
cool building block for inheriting attributes like compression down on
a per inode basis.Jeff Mahoney kicked in code to export filesystem info into sysfs.
Otherwise, lots of performance improvements, cleanups and bug fixes.
Looks like there are still a few other small pending incrementals, but
I wanted to get the bulk of this in first"* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs: (149 commits)

Pull ubifs updates from Artem Bityutskiy:
- Improve the NOR erasure quirk - now it tries to do as little writes
as possible, because the eraseblock may be in an "unstable" state and
write operation sometimes causes NOR chip lock-ups.- Both UBI and UBIFS changes are now maintainer in one single tree,
because the amount of changes dropped significantly.* tag 'upstream-3.14-rc1' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubifs:
UBI: avoid program operation on NOR flash after erasure interrupted
MAINTAINERS: keep UBI and UBIFS stuff in the same tree
UBI: fix error return code -
