  • Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
    "Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
    locking violations, etc.

    The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
    "has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
    to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.

    Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
    several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.

    PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."

  • Pull ext4 updates from Theodore Ts'o:
    "The one new feature added in this patch series is the ability to use
    the "punch hole" functionality for inodes that are not using extent
    maps.

    In the bug fix category, we fixed some races in the AIO and fstrim
    code, and some potential NULL pointer dereferences and memory leaks in
    error handling code paths.

    In the optimization category, we fixed a performance regression in the
    jbd2 layer introduced by commit d9b01934d56a ("jbd: fix fsync() tid
    wraparound bug", introduced in v3.0) which shows up in the AIM7
    benchmark. We also further optimized jbd2 by minimize the amount of
    time that transaction handles are held active.

    This patch series also features some additional enhancement of the
    extent status tree, which is now used to cache extent information in a
    more efficient/compact form than what we use on-disk."

    to be effecting v3.5 and v3.6 kernels with MSFT iSCSI initiators that

    - a number of drivers got support for more variants and mostly got
    cleaned up on the way (sis630, i801, at91, tegra, designware)
    - i2c got rid of all *_set_drvdata(..., NULL) on remove/probe failure
    - removed the i2c_smbus_process_call from the core since there are no
    users
    - mxs can now switch between PIO and DMA depending on the message
    size and the bus speed can now be arbitrary

    In addition, there is the usual bunch of fixes, cleanups, devm_*
    conversions, etc"

    Fixed conflict (and buggy devm_* conversion) in i2c-s3c2410.c

  • Pull PWM changes from Thierry Reding:
    "A new driver has been added to support the PWM mode of the timer
    counter blocks found on Atmel AT91 SoCs. The VT8500 driver now
    supports changing the PWM signal polarity and the TI drivers (EHRPWM
    and ECAP) gained suspend and resume functionality.

    User drivers can now query the core for whether access to a PWM device
    will sleep (if the PWM chip is on a slow bus such as I2C or SPI).

    The pwm-backlight driver now handles the backlight BL_CORE_FBBLANK
    state in addition to the FB layer's blanking states.

    To round things off, a few fixes and cleanups are also included"

  • Pull MMC update from Chris Ball:
    "MMC highlights for 3.9:

    Core:
    - Support for packed commands in eMMC 4.5. (This requires a host
    capability to be turned on. It increases write throughput by 20%+,
    but may also increase average write latency; more testing needed.)
    - Add DT bindings for capability flags.
    - Add mmc_of_parse() for shared DT parsing between drivers.

    Drivers:
    - android-goldfish: New MMC driver for the Android Goldfish emulator.
    - mvsdio: Add DT bindings, pinctrl, use slot-gpio for card detection.
    - omap_hsmmc: Fix boot hangs with RPMB partitions.
    - sdhci-bcm2835: New driver for controller used by Raspberry Pi.
    - sdhci-esdhc-imx: Add 8-bit data, auto CMD23 support, use slot-gpio.
    - sh_mmcif: Add support for eMMC DDR, bundled MMCIF IRQs.
    - tmio_mmc: Add DT bindings, support for vccq regulator"

  • Make it drop the pde in *all* cases when no new reference to it is
    put into an inode - both when an inode had already been set up
    (as we were already doing) and when inode allocation has failed.
    Makes for simpler logics in callers...

  • If proc_get_inode() succeeded, but d_make_root() failed, pde_put() for
    proc_root will be called twice: the first time due to iput() called from
    d_make_root() and the second time directly in the end of
    proc_fill_super().

  • According to SUSv3:

    [EACCES] Permission denied. An attempt was made to access a file in a way
    forbidden by its file access permissions.

    [EPERM] Operation not permitted. An attempt was made to perform an operation
    limited to processes with appropriate privileges or to the owner of a file
    or other resource.

    So -EPERM should be returned if capability checks fails.

    Strictly speaking this is an API change since the error code user sees is
    altered.
