block: clear req->errors on bio completion only for fs requests
Impact: subtle behavior change
For fs requests, rq is only carrier of bios and rq error status as a
whole doesn't mean much. This is the reason why rq->errors is being
cleared on each partial completion of a request as on each partial
completion the error status is transferred to the respective bios.
For pc requests, rq->errors is used to carry error status to the
issuer and thus __end_that_request_first() doesn't clear it on such
cases.
The condition was fine till now as only fs and pc requests have used
bio and thus the bio completion path. However, future changes will
unify data accesses to bio and all non fs users care about rq error
status. Clear rq->errors on bio completion only for fs requests.
In general, the implicit clearing is a bit too subtle especially as
the meaning of rq->errors is completely dependent on low level
drivers. Unifying / cleaning up rq->errors usage and letting llds
manage it would be better. TODO comment added.
hd dance around local irq and HD_IRQ enable without achieving much.
It ends up transferring data from irq handler with both local irq and
HD_IRQ disabled. The only place it actually does something is while
transferring the first block of a request which it does with HD_IRQ
disabled but local irq enabled.
Unfortunately, the dancing is horribly broken from locking POV. IRQ
and timeout handlers access block queue without grabbing the queue
lock and running the driver in SMP configuration crashes the whole
machine pretty quickly.
Remove meaningless irq enable/disable dancing and add proper locking
in issue, irq and timeout paths.

Add new HEAD_TEXT_SECTION macro.
This patch is preparation for replacing all uses of ".head.text" or
".text.head" in the kernel with macros, so that the section name can
later be changed without having to touch a lot of the kernel.
Since some linker scripts do more complex things than referencing
HEAD_TEXT, we add a HEAD_TEXT_SECTION macro that just contains the
actual name.
I've defined HEAD_TEXT_SECTION in a new header,
include/linux/section-names.h, so that this section name only needs to
appear in one place. I anticipate creating similar macro structures
for a number of other section names.
The long-term goal here is to be able to change the kernel's magic
section names to those that are compatible with -ffunction-sections
-fdata-sections. This requires renaming all magic sections with names
of the form ".text.foo".

PM/Hibernate: Fix waiting for image device to appear on resume
Commit c751085943362143f84346d274e0011419c84202 ("PM/Hibernate: Wait for
SCSI devices scan to complete during resume") added a call to
scsi_complete_async_scans() to software_resume(), so that it waited for
the SCSI scanning to complete, but the call was added at a wrong place.
Namely, it should have been added after wait_for_device_probe(), which
is called only if the image partition hasn't been specified yet. Also,
it's reasonable to check if the image partition is present and only wait
for the device probing and SCSI scanning to complete if it is not the
case.
Additionally, since noresume is checked right at the beginning of
software_resume() and the function returns immediately if it's set, it
doesn't make sense to check it once again later.

write_lock(¤t->fs->lock) guarantees we can't wrongly miss
LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE, this is what we care about. Use rcu_read_lock()
instead of ->siglock to iterate over the sub-threads. We must see
all CLONE_THREAD|CLONE_FS threads which didn't pass exit_fs(), it
takes fs->lock too.
With or without this patch we can miss the freshly cloned thread
and set LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE, we don't care.
do_execve() must not clear fs->in_exec if it was set by another thread
If do_execve() fails after check_unsafe_exec(), it clears fs->in_exec
unconditionally. This is wrong if we race with our sub-thread which
also does do_execve:
Two threads T1 and T2 and another process P, all share the same
->fs.
T1 starts do_execve(BAD_FILE). It calls check_unsafe_exec(), since
->fs is shared, we set LSM_UNSAFE but not ->in_exec.
P exits and decrements fs->users.
T2 starts do_execve(), calls check_unsafe_exec(), now ->fs is not
shared, we set fs->in_exec.
T1 continues, open_exec(BAD_FILE) fails, we clear ->in_exec and
return to the user-space.
T1 does clone(CLONE_FS /* without CLONE_THREAD */).
T2 continues without LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE while ->fs is shared with
another process.
Change check_unsafe_exec() to return res = 1 if we set ->in_exec, and change
do_execve() to clear ->in_exec depending on res.
When do_execve() suceeds, it is safe to clear ->in_exec unconditionally.
It can be set only if we don't share ->fs with another process, and since
we already killed all sub-threads either ->in_exec == 0 or we are the
only user of this ->fs.
Also, we do not need fs->lock to clear fs->in_exec.
Currently we look it up from ->ioprio, but ->ioprio can change if
either the process gets its IO priority changed explicitly, or if
cfq decides to temporarily boost it. So if we are unlucky, we can
end up attempting to remove a node from a different rbtree root than
where it was added.
Fix this by using ->org_ioprio as the prio_tree index, since that
will only change for explicit IO priority settings (not for a boost).
Additionally cache the rbtree root inside the cfqq, then we don't have
to add code to reinsert the cfqq in the prio_tree if IO priority changes.
cfq-iosched: fix bug with aliased request and cooperation detection
cfq_prio_tree_lookup() should return the direct match, yet it always
returns zero. Fix that.
cfq_prio_tree_add() assumes that we don't get a direct match, while
it is very possible that we do. Using O_DIRECT, you can have different
cfqq with matching requests, since you don't have the page cache
to serialize things for you. Fix this bug by only adding the cfqq if
there isn't an existing match.

block: fix intermittent dm timeout based oops
Very rarely under stress testing of dm, oopses are occuring as
something tampers with an old stack frame. This has been traced back
to blk_abort_queue() leaving a timeout_list pointing to the stack.
The reason is that sometimes blk_abort_request() won't delete the
timer (if the request is marked as complete but before the timer has
been removed, a small race window). Fix this by splicing back from
the ususally empty list to the q->timeout_list.

warn if q->queue_lock doesn't appear to be locked. In fact, q->queue_lock
is NULL (though that apparently isn't otherwise a problem as the driver is
using card->lock for everything).
Although blk_init_queue() with take a request_fn_proc and spinlock_t*,
there isn't a corresponding init helper that takes a make_request_fn.
Setting queue_lock to &card->lock explicitly seems to work fine for me.
The warning goes away and the device appears to behave.
This simplifies I/O stat accounting switching code and separates it
completely from I/O scheduler switch code.
Requests are accounted according to the state of their request queue

flush the request queue when switching I/O accounting state.

was only being performed in the KMS case. Ensure it's done even if we
don't have modesetting enabled.

I/O port protection: update for windows compatibility.
For windows compatibility,
1) On a port protection violation, simply ignore the request and
do not return an exception (allow the control method to continue execution.)
2) If only part of the request overlaps a protected port,
read/write the individual ports that are not protected.

This fixes an inconsistent behaviour when loading the driver with the
switch on or off. In the former case you would also need to soft unblock
the switch via the sysfs file entries to really disable rfkill, in the
latter you wouldn't.

sony-laptop: fix bogus error message display on resume
sony_backlight_update_status returns 0 on success -1 on failure (i.e.: the
return value from acpi_callsetfunc. The return value in the resume path
was broken and thus always displaying a bogus warning about not being able
to restore the brightness level.

When resuming from standby (on a laptop) I see the following message in
my kernel.log:
"ACPI: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode"
This apparently prevented sony-laptop to properly restore the brightness
level on resume.
The cause: In drivers/acpi/ec.c the acpi_ec_suspend function clears the
GPE mode bit, but this is not restored in acpi_ec_resume (the function
below it). The patch below fixes this by properly restoring the GPE_MODE
bit. Tested and confirmed to work.

ACPI/hpet: prevent boot hang when hpet=force used on ICH-4M
Linux tells ICH4 users that they can (manually) invoke
"hpet=force" to enable the undocumented ICH-4M HPET.
The HPET becomes available for both clocksource and clockevents.
But as of ff69f2bba67bd45514923aaedbf40fe351787c59
(acpi: fix of pmtimer overflow that make Cx states time incorrect)
the HPET may be used via clocksource for idle accounting, and
hpet=force on an ICH4 box hangs boot.
It turns out that touching the MMIO HPET withing
the ARB_DIS part of C3 will hang the hardware.
The fix is to simply move the timer access outside
the ARB_DIS region. This is a no-op on modern hardware
because ARB_DIS is no longer used.

[ARM] 5460/1: Orion: reduce namespace pollution
Symbols like SOFT_RESET are way too generic to be exported at large.
To avoid this, let's move the mbus bridge register defines into a
separate file and include it where needed. This affects mach-kirkwood,
mach-loki, mach-mv78xx0 and mach-orion5x simultaneously as they all
share code in plat-orion which relies on those defines.
Some other defines have been moved to narrower scopes, or simply deleted

USB: g_file_storage: fix use-after-free bug when closing files
This patch (as1231) fixes a use-after-free bug in g_file_storage. A
device's name may not be available after the device is unregistered,
even if the device structure itself is still allocated. Since
close_backing_file() prints a LUN's name for debugging, it shouldn't
be called after the LUN has been unregistered.
That whole area needed to be cleaned up; the backing files were
getting closed in a couple of different places. The patch fixes
things so that they get closed in just one place, as part of the
unbind procedure, immediately before the LUN is unregistered.
