  • Remove myself as cpufreq maintainer.
    x86 driver changes can go through the regular x86/ACPI trees.
    ARM driver changes through the ARM trees.
    cpufreq core changes are rare these days, and can just go to lkml/direct.

  • Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

    1) Fix bluetooth userland regression reported by Keith Packard, from
    Gustavo Padovan.

    2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan.

    3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet.

    4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal
    Cardwell.

    5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom
    they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless
    encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end
    defeating this specification.

    This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless
    code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.

    Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it
    asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the
    slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

    Reported by Marc Merlin and fixed by Eric Dumazet.

    Nayak, João Paulo Rechi Vita, Cho, Yu-Chen, Andrei Emeltchenko,

    5) Ipv6 multicast code uses wrong loop index, from RongQing Li.

    6) Link handling and firmware fixes in bnx2x driver from Yaniv Rosner
    and Yuval Mintz.

    7) mlx4 erroneously allocates 4 pages at a time, regardless of page
    size, fix from Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo.

    8) SCTP socket option wasn't extended in a backwards compatible way,
    fix from Thomas Graf.

    9) Add missing address change event emissions to bonding, from Shlomo
    Pongratz.

    10) /proc/net/dev regressed because it uses a private offset to track
    where we are in the hash table, but this doesn't track the offset
    pullback that the seq_file code does resulting in some entries being
    missed in large dumps.

    Fix from Eric Dumazet.

    11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it
    invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't. Let the natural sequence
    generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE
    settings, guide the tcp_push() calls.

    Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch
    effectively into GSO/TSO clusters.

    From Eric Dumazet.

    12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a
    socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we
    cannot touch it after queueing it like that.

    Fixes from Eric Dumazet.

    13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
    immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
    to transmit the PPP frame.

    But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
    TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.

    Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
    particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should
    only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
    when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.

    David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
    it's downstream can't take data any more.

    14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver
    changes, re-add. From Marc Kleine-Budde.

    15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen.

  • The bluesmoke mailing list no longer works, so use
    linux-edac@vger.kernel.org. And, use a less restrictive pattern so all
    drivers/edac changes go to linux-edac as well.

    Borislav suggested I just push this through the tile tree since there
    is currently no core edac maintainer (emails to Doug Thompson bounce).

  • Pull urgent cgroup fix from Tejun Heo:
    "Commit 61d1d219c4c0 ('cgroup: remove extra calls to
    find_existing_css_set') which was part of the rc1 cgroup pull request
    made writes to the cgroup "tasks" file return an uninitialized retval
    on success which can cause boot failures with systemd.

    The change stayed in linux-next for quite some time but gcc
    interestingly failed to emit warning about using uninitialized
    variable and the problem seems to materialize only for certain build
    combinations (probably depends on register allocation).

    It's just missing local variable initialization and the fix is trivial
    & safe. As the problem is critical when it materializes, I'm
    fast-tracking it. Also included is Li's email address change in
    MAINTAINERS."

  • Pull "remoteproc/rpmsg: new subsystem" from Arnd Bergmann:
    "This new subsystem provides a common way to talk to secondary
    processors on an SoC, e.g. a DSP, GPU or service processor, using
    virtio as the transport. In the long run, it should replace a few
    dozen vendor specific ways to do the same thing, which all never made
    it into the upstream kernel. There is a broad agreement that rpmsg is
    the way to go here and several vendors have started working on
    replacing their own subsystems.

    Two branches each add one virtio protocol number. Fortunately the
    numbers were agreed upon in advance, so there are only context
    changes.

    Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann "

    Fixed up trivial protocol number conflict due to the mentioned additions
    next to each other.
