It is only set after everyone has dereferenced the transport,
and serves no useful purpose: setting it is racy, so all the
socket code, etc still needs to be able to cope with the cases
where they miss reading it.

If the server reboots before it can commit the unstable writes to disk,
then nfs_commit_release_pages() will detect this when it compares the
verifier returned by COMMIT to the one returned by WRITE. When this
happens, the client needs to resend those writes in order to guarantee
that they make it to stable storage.
This patch adds a signalling mechanism to notify fsync() that it
needs to retry all writes before it can exit.

We want to be able to pass on the information that the page was not
dirtied under a lock. Instead of adding a flag parameter, do this
by passing a pointer to a 'struct nfs_lock_owner' that may be NULL.
Also reuse this structure in struct nfs_lock_context to carry the
fl_owner_t and pid_t.

Follow up on commit c285f6ff6787 "firewire: remove global lock around
address handlers, convert to RCU":
- address_handler_lock no longer serializes the address handler, only
its function to serialize updates to the list of handlers remains.
Rename the lock to address_handler_list_lock.
- Callers of fw_core_remove_address_handler() must be able to sleep.
Comment on this in the API documentation.
- The counterpart fw_core_add_address_handler() is by nature something
which is used in process context. Replace spin_lock_bh() by
spin_lock() in fw_core_add_address_handler() and in
fw_core_remove_address_handler(), and document that process context
is now required for fw_core_add_address_handler().
- Extend the documentation of fw_address_callback_t.

virtio network device multiqueue support reserves
vq 3 for future use (useful both for future extensions and to make it
pretty - this way receive vqs have even and transmit - odd numbers).
Make it possible to skip initialization for
specific vq numbers by specifying NULL for name.
Document this usage as well as (existing) NULL callback.
Drivers using this not coded up yet, so I simply tested
with virtio-pci and verified that this patch does
not break existing drivers.

Sometimes, virtio device need to configure irq affinity hint to maximize the
performance. Instead of just exposing the irq of a virtqueue, this patch
introduce an API to set the affinity for a virtqueue.
The api is best-effort, the affinity hint may not be set as expected due to
platform support, irq sharing or irq type. Currently, only pci method were
implemented and we set the affinity according to:
- if device uses INTX, we just ignore the request
- if device has per vq vector, we force the affinity hint
- if the virtqueues share MSI, make the affinity OR over all affinities

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

This adds support for socket of type SOCK_RAW to LLCP.
sk_buff are copied and sent to raw sockets with a 2 bytes extra header:
The first byte header contains the nfc adapter index.
The second one contains flags:
- 0x01 - Direction (0=RX, 1=TX)
- 0x02-0x80 - Reserved
A raw socket has to be explicitly bound to a nfc adapter. This is achieved
by specifying the adapter index to be bound to in the dev_idx field of the
sockaddr_nfc_llcp struct passed to bind().

Similar situation to that of __alloc_fd(); do not use unless you
really have to. You should not touch any descriptor table other
than your own; it's a sure sign of a really bad API design.
As with __alloc_fd(), you *must* use a first-class reference to
struct files_struct; something obtained by get_files_struct(some task)
(let alone direct task->files) will not do. It must be either
current->files, or obtained by get_files_struct(current) by the
owner of that sucker and given to you.

Most of the time wanting to use it is a sign of lousy API

playing with other process' descriptor table is a sign of bad

This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port
as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the
port is attached to KGDB).
Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able
to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33). This is
because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus
is able to intercept the magic sequence.
Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling
communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully
detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw
console.
Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so
initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger
console:
Type $3#33 to enter the debugger>
For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option,
when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key
press, so the kernel will be printing this:
Hit <return> to enter the debugger>
This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes
nmi_console feature somewhat useless.
And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking
can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.

It was noticed that polling drivers (like KGDB) are not able to use
serial ports if the ports were not previously initialized via console.
I.e. when booting with console=ttyAMA0 kgdboc=ttyAMA0, everything works
fine, but with console=ttyFOO kgdboc=ttyAMA0, the kgdboc doesn't work.
This is because we don't initialize the hardware. Calling ->startup() is
not an option, because drivers request interrupts there, and drivers
fail to handle situations when tty isn't opened with interrupts enabled.
So, we have to implement a new callback (actually, tty_ops already have
a similar callback), which does everything needed to initialize just the
hardware.

The new arch callback should manage NMIs that usually cause KGDB to
enter. That is, not all NMIs should be enabled/disabled, but only
those that issue kgdb_handle_exception().
We must mask it as serial-line interrupt can be used as an NMI, so
if the original KGDB-entry cause was say a breakpoint, then every
input to KDB console will cause KGDB to reenter, which we don't want.

In some cases, it is necessary to enter or exit userspace-RCU-idle mode
from an interrupt handler, for example, if some other CPU sends this
CPU a resched IPI. In this case, the current CPU would enter the IPI
handler in userspace-RCU-idle mode, but would need to exit the IPI handler
after having exited that mode.
To allow this to work, this commit adds two new APIs to TREE_RCU:
- rcu_user_enter_after_irq(). This must be called from an interrupt between
rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit(). After the irq calls rcu_irq_exit(),
the irq handler will return into an RCU extended quiescent state.
In theory, this interrupt is never a nested interrupt, but in practice
it might interrupt softirq, which looks to RCU like a nested interrupt.
- rcu_user_exit_after_irq(). This must be called from a non-nesting
interrupt, interrupting an RCU extended quiescent state, also
between rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit(). After the irq calls
rcu_irq_exit(), the irq handler will return in an RCU non-quiescent
state.

RCU currently insists that only idle tasks can enter RCU idle mode, which
prohibits an adaptive tickless kernel (AKA nohz cpusets), which in turn
would mean that usermode execution would always take scheduling-clock
interrupts, even when there is only one task runnable on the CPU in
question.
This commit therefore adds rcu_user_enter() and rcu_user_exit(), which
allow non-idle tasks to enter RCU idle mode. These are quite similar
to rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit(), respectively, except that they
omit the idle-task checks.
