Asking for a non-current task's stack can't be done without races
unless the task is frozen in kernel mode. As far as I know,
vm_is_stack_for_task() never had a safe non-current use case.
The __unused annotation is because some KSTK_ESP implementations
ignore their parameter, which IMO is further justification for this
patch.

This reverts more of:
b76437579d13 ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps")
... which was partially reverted by:
65376df58217 ("proc: revert /proc/<pid>/maps [stack:TID] annotation")
Originally, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps was the same as /proc/TID/maps.
In current kernels, /proc/PID/maps (or /proc/TID/maps even for
threads) shows "[stack]" for VMAs in the mm's stack address range.
In contrast, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps uses KSTK_ESP to guess the
target thread's stack's VMA. This is racy, probably returns garbage
and, on arches with CONFIG_TASK_INFO_IN_THREAD=y, is also crash-prone:
KSTK_ESP is not safe to use on tasks that aren't known to be running
ordinary process-context kernel code.
This patch removes the difference and just shows "[stack]" for VMAs
in the mm's stack range. This is IMO much more sensible -- the
actual "stack" address really is treated specially by the VM code,
and the current thread stack isn't even well-defined for programs
that frequently switch stacks on their own.

Reporting these fields on a non-current task is dangerous. If the
task is in any state other than normal kernel code, they may contain
garbage or even kernel addresses on some architectures. (x86_64
used to do this. I bet lots of architectures still do.) With
CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, it can OOPS, too.
As far as I know, there are no use programs that make any material
use of these fields, so just get rid of them.

Some time ago, we brought our UV BIOS callback code up to speed with the
new EFI memory mapping scheme, in commit:
d1be84a232e3 ("x86/uv: Update uv_bios_call() to use efi_call_virt_pointer()")
By leveraging some changes that I made to a few of the EFI runtime
callback mechanisms, in commit:
80e75596079f ("efi: Convert efi_call_virt() to efi_call_virt_pointer()")
This got everything running smoothly on UV, with the new EFI mapping
code. However, this left one, small loose end, in that EFI_OLD_MEMMAP
(a.k.a. efi=old_map) will no longer work on UV, on kernels that include
the aforementioned changes.
At the time this was not a major issue (in fact, it still really isn't),
but there's no reason that EFI_OLD_MEMMAP *shouldn't* work on our
systems. This commit adds a check into uv_bios_call(), to see if we have
the EFI_OLD_MEMMAP bit set in efi.flags. If it is set, we fall back to
using our old callback method, which uses efi_call() directly on the __va()
of our function pointer.

target_complete_cmd_with_length"
This reverts commit c1ccbfe0311e2380a6d2dcb0714b36904f5d586f.
Reverting this patch, as it incorrectly assumes the additional length
for INQUIRY in target_complete_cmd_with_length() is SCSI allocation
length, which breaks existing user-space code when SCSI allocation
length is smaller than additional length.
root@scsi-mq:~# sg_inq --len=4 -vvvv /dev/sdb
found bsg_major=253
open /dev/sdb with flags=0x800
inquiry cdb: 12 00 00 00 04 00
duration=0 ms
inquiry: pass-through requested 4 bytes (data-in) but got -28 bytes
inquiry: pass-through can't get negative bytes, say it got none
inquiry: got too few bytes (0)
INQUIRY resid (32) should never exceed requested len=4
inquiry: failed requesting 4 byte response: Malformed response to
SCSI command [resid=32]
AFAICT the original change was not to address a specific host issue,
so go ahead and revert to original logic for now.

This patch addresses a bug where a local EXTENDED_COPY WRITE or READ
backend I/O request would always return SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION,
even if underlying xcopy_pt_cmd->se_cmd generated a different
SCSI status code.
ESX host environments expect to hit SAM_STAT_RESERVATION_CONFLICT
for certain scenarios, and SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION results in
non-retriable status for these cases.
Tested on v4.1.y with ESX v5.5u2+ with local IBLOCK backend copy.

This patch addresses a bug where EXTENDED_COPY across multiple LUNs
results in a CHECK_CONDITION when the source + destination are not
located on the same physical node.
ESX Host environments expect sense COPY_ABORTED w/ COPY TARGET DEVICE
NOT REACHABLE to be returned when this occurs, in order to signal
fallback to local copy method.
As described in section 6.3.3 of spc4r22:
"If it is not possible to complete processing of a segment because the
copy manager is unable to establish communications with a copy target
device, because the copy target device does not respond to INQUIRY,
or because the data returned in response to INQUIRY indicates
an unsupported logical unit, then the EXTENDED COPY command shall be
terminated with CHECK CONDITION status, with the sense key set to
COPY ABORTED, and the additional sense code set to COPY TARGET DEVICE
NOT REACHABLE."
Tested on v4.1.y with ESX v5.5u2+ with BlockCopy across multiple nodes.

This patch fixes a regression in >= v4.1.y code where the original
SCF_ACK_KREF assignment in target_get_sess_cmd() was dropped upstream
in commit 054922bb, but the series for addressing TMR ABORT_TASK +
LUN_RESET with fabric session reinstatement in commit febe562c20 still
depends on this code in transport_cmd_finish_abort().
The regression manifests itself as a se_cmd->cmd_kref +1 leak, where
ABORT_TASK + LUN_RESET can hang indefinately for a specific I_T session
for drivers using SCF_ACK_KREF, resulting in hung kthreads.
This patch has been verified with v4.1.y code.

If UBIFS is facing an error while walking a directory, it reports this
error and ubifs_readdir() returns the error code. But the VFS readdir
logic does not make the getdents system call fail in all cases. When the
readdir cursor indicates that more entries are present, the system call
will just return and the libc wrapper will try again since it also
knows that more entries are present.
This causes the libc wrapper to busy loop for ever when a directory is
corrupted on UBIFS.
A common approach do deal with corrupted directory entries is
skipping them by setting the cursor to the next entry. On UBIFS this
approach is not possible since we cannot compute the next directory
entry cursor position without reading the current entry. So all we can
do is setting the cursor to the "no more entries" position and make
getdents exit.

We have a fairly common pattern where you print several things as
continuations on one single line in a loop, and then at the end you do
printk(KERN_CONT "\n");
to flush the buffered output.
But if the output was flushed by something else (concurrent printk
activity, or just system logging), we don't want that final flushing to
just print an empty line.
So just suppress empty continuation lines when they couldn't be merged
into the line they are a continuation of.

Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
"This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
implied by flags.
The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
being used. The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.
The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e088546522
("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
situation where this assumption did not hold.
See
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166
for the patch proposal"
Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
FOLL_WRITE by me.

The timer_irq_works() boot check may sometimes fail in a VM, when
the Host is overcommitted or when the Guest is running nested.
Since the intended check is unnecessary on VMware's virtual
hardware, by-pass it.

This removes the 'write' argument from access_process_vm() and replaces
it with 'gup_flags' as use of this function previously silently implied
FOLL_FORCE, whereas after this patch callers explicitly pass this flag.
We make this explicit as use of FOLL_FORCE can result in surprising
behaviour (and hence bugs) within the mm subsystem.

Writing the outer loop of an LL/SC sequence using do {...} while
constructs potentially allows the compiler to hoist memory accesses
between the STXR and the branch back to the LDXR. On CPUs that do not
guarantee forward progress of LL/SC loops when faced with memory
accesses to the same ERG (up to 2k) between the failed STXR and the
branch back, we may end up livelocking.
This patch avoids this issue in our percpu atomics by rewriting the
outer loop as part of the LL/SC inline assembly block.

If a CPU does not implement a global monitor for certain memory types,
then userspace can attempt a kernel DoS by issuing SWP instructions
targetting the problematic memory (for example, a framebuffer mapped
with non-cacheable attributes).
The SWP emulation code protects against these sorts of attacks by
checking for pending signals and potentially rescheduling when the STXR
instruction fails during the emulation. Whilst this is good for avoiding
livelock, it harms emulation of legitimate SWP instructions on CPUs
where forward progress is not guaranteed if there are memory accesses to
the same reservation granule (up to 2k) between the failing STXR and
the retry of the LDXR.
This patch solves the problem by retrying the STXR a bounded number of
times (4) before breaking out of the LL/SC loop and looking for
something else to do.

A scheduler performance regression has been reported by Joseph Salisbury,
which he bisected back to:
3d30544f0212 ("sched/fair: Apply more PELT fixes)
The regression triggers when several levels of task groups are involved
(read: SystemD) and cpu_possible_mask != cpu_present_mask.
The root cause is that group entity's load (tg_child->se[i]->avg.load_avg)
is initialized to scale_load_down(se->load.weight). During the creation of
a child task group, its group entities on possible CPUs are attached to
parent's cfs_rq (tg_parent) and their loads are added to the parent's load
(tg_parent->load_avg) with update_tg_load_avg().
But only the load on online CPUs will then be updated to reflect real load,
whereas load on other CPUs will stay at the initial value.
The result is a tg_parent->load_avg that is higher than the real load, the
weight of group entities (tg_parent->se[i]->load.weight) on online CPUs is
smaller than it should be, and the task group gets a less running time than
what it could expect.
( This situation can be detected with /proc/sched_debug. The ".tg_load_avg"
of the task group will be much higher than sum of ".tg_load_avg_contrib"
of online cfs_rqs of the task group. )
The load of group entities don't have to be intialized to something else
than 0 because their load will increase when an entity is attached.

When building the ARM kernel with CONFIG_EFI=y, the following build
error may occur when using a less recent version of binutils (2.23 or
older):
STUBCPY drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/lib-sort.stub.o
00000000 R_ARM_ABS32 sort
00000004 R_ARM_ABS32 __ksymtab_strings
drivers/firmware/efi/libstub/lib-sort.stub.o: absolute symbol references not allowed in the EFI stub
(and when building with debug symbols, the list above is much longer, and
contains all the internal references between the .debug sections and the
actual code)
This issue is caused by the fact that objcopy v2.23 or earlier does not
support wildcards in its -R and -j options, which means the following
line from the Makefile:
STUBCOPY_FLAGS-y := -R .debug* -R *ksymtab* -R *kcrctab*
fails to take effect, leaving harmless absolute relocations in the binary
that are indistinguishable from relocations that may cause crashes at
runtime due to the fact that these relocations are resolved at link time
using the virtual address of the kernel, which is always different from
the address at which the EFI firmware loads and invokes the stub.
So, as a workaround, disable debug symbols explicitly when building the
stub for ARM, and strip the ksymtab and kcrctab symbols for the only
exported symbol we currently reuse in the stub, which is 'sort'.
