Some USB function drivers (e.g. f_mass_storage.c) need to delay or defer the
data/status stages of standard control requests like SET_CONFIGURATION or
SET_INTERFACE till they are done with their bookkeeping and are actually ready
for accepting new commands to their interface.
They can now achieve this functionality by returning USB_GADGET_DELAYED_STATUS
in their setup handlers (e.g. set_alt()). The composite framework will then
defer completion of the control transfer by not completing the data/status stages.
This ensures that the host does not send new packets to the interface till the
function driver is ready to take them.
When the function driver that requested for USB_GADGET_DELAYED_STATUS is done
with its bookkeeping, it should signal the composite framework to continue with
the data/status stages of the control transfer. It can do so by invoking
the new API usb_composite_setup_continue(). This is where the control transfer's
data/status stages are completed and host can initiate new transfers.
The DELAYED_STATUS mechanism is currently only supported if the expected data phase
is 0 bytes (i.e. w_length == 0). Since SET_CONFIGURATION and SET_INTERFACE are the
only cases that will use this mechanism, this is not a limitation.

Linux kernel excludes guard page when performing mlock on a VMA with
down-growing stack. However, some architectures have up-growing stack
and locking the guard page should be excluded in this case too.
This patch fixes lvm2 on PA-RISC (and possibly other architectures with
up-growing stack). lvm2 calculates number of used pages when locking and
when unlocking and reports an internal error if the numbers mismatch.
[ Patch changed fairly extensively to also fix /proc/<pid>/maps for the
grows-up case, and to move things around a bit to clean it all up and
share the infrstructure with the /proc bits.
Tested on ia64 that has both grow-up and grow-down segments - Linus ]

Implement good battery algorithm defined in the battery charging V1.2 spec
for detecting different charging ports. USB hardware is put into low power
mode when connected to a dedicated charging port. vbus_draw and set_power
methods are implemented for determining the allowed current from Host in
different states (un-configured/suspend/configured).
The charger block is implemented using vendor specific registers and the
PHY used in MSM8960(28nm PHY) different from older targets like MSM8x60
and MSM7x30(45nm PHY). The PHY vendor and product id registers are not
implemented in the above chipsets. Hence PHY type is passed via platform
data.

This partially reverts commit e6e1e2593592a8f6f6380496655d8c6f67431266.
That commit changed the structure layout of the trace structure, which
in turn broke PowerTOP (1.9x generation) quite badly.
I appreciate not wanting to expose the variable in question, and
PowerTOP was not using it, so I've replaced the variable with just a
padding field - that way if in the future a new field is needed it can
just use this padding field.

The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it
actually needs the irq-safe one.
That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b'
instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do
not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation
code.
And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic
code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any
protection against interrupts or preemption. Which definitely doesn't
work for SLUB.
This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw
instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty
much everything under the sun. Most big Linux distributions tend to
compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem.
This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions
to use 'bool' like they should.
[ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just
sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to
use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with. So we should probably just remove
the unprotected version entirely as pointless. - Linus ]

The two first HC capability registers (CAPLENGTH and HCIVERSION)
are defined as one 8-bit and one 16-bit register. Most HC
implementations have selected to treat these registers as part
of a 32-bit register, giving the same layout for both big and
small endian systems.
This patch adds a new quirk, big_endian_capbase, to support
controllers with big endian register interfaces that treat
HCIVERSION and CAPLENGTH as individual registers.

This patch (as1459) updates the documentation for the pre_reset method
in struct usb_driver. When a driver is notified of an impending
reset, it must cancel all outstanding I/O and not start any new I/O
until it has been notified that the reset is complete.
As far as I know, most existing drivers that implement pre_reset do
this now. The major exceptions appear to be the SpeedTouch and
CDC-WDM drivers.

The huge_memory.c THP page fault was allowed to run if vm_ops was null
(which would succeed for /dev/zero MAP_PRIVATE, as the f_op->mmap wouldn't
setup a special vma->vm_ops and it would fallback to regular anonymous
memory) but other THP logics weren't fully activated for vmas with vm_file
not NULL (/dev/zero has a not NULL vma->vm_file).
So this removes the vm_file checks so that /dev/zero also can safely use
THP (the other albeit safer approach to fix this bug would have been to
prevent the THP initial page fault to run if vm_file was set).
After removing the vm_file checks, this also makes huge_memory.c stricter
in khugepaged for the DEBUG_VM=y case. It doesn't replace the vm_file
check with a is_pfn_mapping check (but it keeps checking for VM_PFNMAP
under VM_BUG_ON) because for a is_cow_mapping() mapping VM_PFNMAP should
only be allowed to exist before the first page fault, and in turn when
vma->anon_vma is null (so preventing khugepaged registration). So I tend
to think the previous comment saying if vm_file was set, VM_PFNMAP might
have been set and we could still be registered in khugepaged (despite
anon_vma was not NULL to be registered in khugepaged) was too paranoid.
The is_linear_pfn_mapping check is also I think superfluous (as described
by comment) but under DEBUG_VM it is safe to stay.

When readdir() returns a directory entry for the root of a mounted
filesystem, Linux follows the old convention of returning the inode
number of the covered directory (despite newer versions of POSIX declaring
that this is a bug).
To ensure this continues to work, the NFSv4 readdir implementation requests
the 'mounted-on-fileid' from the server.
However, readdirplus also needs to instantiate an inode for this entry, and
for that, we also need to request the real fileid as per this patch.

When a task is traced and is in a stopped state, the tracer
may execute a ptrace request to examine the tracee state and
get its task struct. Right after, the tracee can be killed
and thus its breakpoints released.
This can happen concurrently when the tracer is in the middle
of reading or modifying these breakpoints, leading to dereferencing
a freed pointer.
Hence, to prepare the fix, create a generic breakpoint reference
holding API. When a reference on the breakpoints of a task is
held, the breakpoints won't be released until the last reference
is dropped. After that, no more ptrace request on the task's
breakpoints can be serviced for the tracer.

On occasion, it is useful for the NFS layer to distinguish between
soft timeouts and other EIO errors due to (say) encoding errors,
or authentication errors.
The following patch ensures that the default behaviour of the RPC
layer remains to return EIO on soft timeouts (until we have
audited all the callers).

If a server for some reason keeps sending NFS4ERR_DELAY errors, we can end
up looping forever inside nfs4_proc_create_session, and so the usual
mechanisms for detecting if the nfs_client is dead don't work.
Fix this by ensuring that we loop inside the nfs4_state_manager thread
instead.

NVIDIA mcp65 familiy of controllers cause command timeouts when DIPM
is used. Implement ATA_FLAG_NO_DIPM and apply it.
This problem was reported by Stefan Bader in the following thread.
