Using uname with the processor flag option in some cases can yield 'unknown'
so lets use the machine flag option as it is deterministic. Add a dependency
for all_32 when building on a x86 64 bit host so that both bitnesses are
built in this case.Cc: Andy Lutomirski

AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

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:

The new Atmel MXT driver expects i2c client's address contain the
primary (main address) of the chip, and calculates the expected
bootloader address form the primary address. Unfortunately chrome_laptop
does probe the devices and if touchpad (or touchscreen, or both) comes
up in bootloader mode the i2c device gets instantiated with the
bootloader address which confuses the driver.To work around this issue let's probe the primary address first. If the
device is not detected at the primary address we'll probe alternative
addresses as "dummy" devices. If any of them are found, destroy the
dummy client and instantiate client with proper name at primary address
still.Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

Calling unlazy_walk() in walk_component() and do_last() when we find
a symlink that needs to be followed doesn't acquire a reference to vfsmount.
That's fine when the symlink is on the same vfsmount as the parent directory
(which is almost always the case), but it's not always true - one _can_
manage to bind a symlink on top of something. And in such cases we end up
with excessive mntput().Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # since 2.6.39

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):

commit a39f46df33c6 ("toshiba_acpi: Fix regression caused by backlight extra
check code") causes the backlight to no longer work on the Toshiba Z30,
reverting that commit fixes this but restores the original issue fixed
by that commit.Looking at the toshiba_acpi backlight code for a fix for this I noticed that
the toshiba code is the only code under platform/x86 which unconditionally
registers a vendor acpi backlight interface, without checking for acpi_video
backlight support first.This commit adds the necessary checks bringing toshiba_acpi in line with the
other drivers, and fixing the Z30 regression without needing to revert the
commit causing it.Chances are that there will be some Toshiba models which have a non working
acpi-video implementation while the toshiba vendor backlight interface does
work, this commit adds an empty dmi_id table where such systems can be added,
this is identical to how other drivers handle such systems.BugLink: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1206036

Pull md updates from Neil Brown:
"More updates that usual this time. A few have performance impacts
which hould mostly be positive, but RAID5 (in particular) can be very
work-load ensitive... We'll have to wait and see.Highlights:
- "experimental" code for managing md/raid1 across a cluster using
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
some extent"* tag 'md/4.1' of git://neil.brown.name/md: (58 commits)

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
I fully expect people to use FDT by default for the immediate future"* tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: (31 commits)
