virtio: Fix scheduling while atomic in virtio_balloon stats
This is a fix for my earlier patch: "virtio: Add memory statistics reporting to
the balloon driver (V4)".
I discovered that all_vm_events() can sleep and therefore stats collection
cannot be done in interrupt context. One solution is to handle the interrupt
by noting that stats need to be collected and waking the existing vballoon
kthread which will complete the work via stats_handle_request(). Rusty, is
this a saner way of doing business?
There is one issue that I would like a broader opinion on. In stats_request, I
update vb->need_stats_update and then wake up the kthread. The kthread uses
vb->need_stats_update as a condition variable. Do I need a memory barrier
between the update and wake_up to ensure that my kthread sees the correct
value? My testing suggests that it is not needed but I would like some
confirmation from the experts.

virtio: Add memory statistics reporting to the balloon driver (V4)
Changes since V3:
- Do not do endian conversions as they will be done in the host
- Report stats that reference a quantity of memory in bytes
- Minor coding style updates
Changes since V2:
- Increase stat field size to 64 bits
- Report all sizes in kb (not pages)
- Drop anon_pages stat and fix endianness conversion
Changes since V1:
- Use a virtqueue instead of the device config space
When using ballooning to manage overcommitted memory on a host, a system for
guests to communicate their memory usage to the host can provide information
that will minimize the impact of ballooning on the guests. The current method
employs a daemon running in each guest that communicates memory statistics to a
host daemon at a specified time interval. The host daemon aggregates this
information and inflates and/or deflates balloons according to the level of
host memory pressure. This approach is effective but overly complex since a
daemon must be installed inside each guest and coordinated to communicate with
the host. A simpler approach is to collect memory statistics in the virtio
balloon driver and communicate them directly to the hypervisor.
This patch enables the guest-side support by adding stats collection and
reporting to the virtio balloon driver.

When a work is queued to the workqueue the work struct contains pointers

hw-breakpoint: Keep track of dr7 local enable bits
When the user enables breakpoints through dr7, he can choose
between "local" or "global" enable bits but given how linux is
implemented, both have the same effect.
That said we don't keep track how the user enabled the breakpoints
so when the user requests the dr7 value, we only translate the
"enabled" status using the global enabled bits. It means that if
the user enabled a breakpoint using the local enabled bit, reading
back dr7 will set the global bit and clear the local one.
Apps like Wine expect a full dr7 POKEUSER/PEEKUSER match for emulated
softwares that implement old reverse engineering protection schemes.
We fix that by keeping track of the whole dr7 value given by the user
in the thread structure to drop this bug. We'll think about
something more proper later.

V4L/DVB: bttv: Move I2C IR initialization
Move I2C IR initialization from just after I2C bus setup to right
before non-I2C IR initialization. This avoids the case where an I2C IR
device is blocking audio support (at least the PV951 suffers from
this). It is also more logical to group IR support together,
regardless of the connectivity.
This fixes bug #15184:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15184
Due to lack of time, space, motivation, hardware and probably expertise,
I have reluctantly decided to orphan the DECnet code in the kernel.
Judging by the deafening silence on the linux-decnet mailing list I
suspect it's either not being used anyway, or the few people that are
using it are happy with their older kernels.
The 'outer_cache' variable is needed by the outer_inv_range(),
outer_clean_range() and outer_flush_range() functions, which are
declared as inline in asm/cacheflush.h. Otherwise drivers built
as a loadable module, which access these functions, will have
an undefined symbol.

[SCSI] fcoe: Only rmmod fcoe.ko if there are no active connections
Currently we're gracefully tearing down each active connection
when fcoe.ko is removed. We shouldn't allow the user to destroy
connections by removing the module. We should force the user to
destroy each connection and then the module can be removed.
This patch makes it so a refrerence count on the module is taken
each time a fcoe_interface is created. The reference count
is dropped when the fcoe_interface is destroyed. This makes it
so that module_exit() doesn't get called unless all fcoe_interfaces
have been destroyed.
This patch leaves the removal of interfaces in the module_exit
routine so that if the user does a 'rmmod -f' we'll clean everything
up before removing the module.
The module_put line was put before the out_putdev goto line because
we should only be decrementing the reference count if a
fcoe_interface is actually destroyed. If we can't find the netdev
or the fcoe_interface then it's assumed that something else has
destroyed the fcoe_interface and it would have decremented the
reference count at that time.

serial: 8250: add serial transmitter fully empty test
When controlling an industrial radio modem it can be necessary to
manipulate the handshake lines in order to control the radio modem's
transmitter, from userspace.
The transmitter should not be turned off before all characters have been
transmitted. serial8250_tx_empty() was reporting that all characters were
transmitted before they actually were.
===
Discovered in parallel with more testing and analysis by Kees Schoenmakers
as follows:
I ran into an NetMos 9835 serial pci board which behaves a little
different than the standard. This type of expansion board is very common.
"Standard" 8250 compatible devices clear the 'UART_LST_TEMT" bit together
with the "UART_LSR_THRE" bit when writing data to the device.
The NetMos device does it slightly different
I believe that the TEMT bit is coupled to the shift register. The problem
is that after writing data to the device and very quickly after that one
does call serial8250_tx_empty, it returns the wrong information.
My patch makes the test more robust (and solves the problem) and it does
not affect the already correct devices.
Alan:
We may yet need to quirk this but now we know which chips we have a
way to do that should we find this breaks some other 8250 clone with
dodgy THRE.
