work_on_cpu(): rewrite it to create a kernel thread on demand
It seems that the kernel calls these acpi-cpufreq functions at a quite
high frequency.
Valdis Kletnieks also reports that this causes 70-90 forks per second on
his hardware.

add some long-missing capabilities to fs_mask
When POSIX capabilities were introduced during the 2.1 Linux
cycle, the fs mask, which represents the capabilities which having
fsuid==0 is supposed to grant, did not include CAP_MKNOD and
CAP_LINUX_IMMUTABLE. However, before capabilities the privilege
to call these did in fact depend upon fsuid==0.
This patch introduces those capabilities into the fsmask,
restoring the old behavior.
See the thread starting at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/3/11/157 for
reference.
Note that if this fix is deemed valid, then earlier kernel versions (2.4
and 2.2) ought to be fixed too.

async: Fix module loading async-work regression
Several drivers use asynchronous work to do device discovery, and we
synchronize with them in the compiled-in case before we actually try to
mount root filesystems etc.
However, when compiled as modules, that synchronization is missing - the
module loading completes, but the driver hasn't actually finished
probing for devices, and that means that any user mode that expects to
use the devices after the 'insmod' is now potentially broken.
We already saw one case of a similar issue in the ACPI battery code,
where the kernel itself expected the module to be all done, and unmapped
the init memory - but the async device discovery was still running.
That got hacked around by just removing the "__init" (see commit
5d38258ec026921a7b266f4047ebeaa75db358e5 "ACPI battery: fix async boot
oops"), but the real fix is to just make the module loading wait for all
async work to be completed.
It will slow down module loading, but since common devices should be
built in anyway, and since the bug is really annoying and hard to handle
from user space (and caused several S3 resume regressions), the simple
fix to wait is the right one.
This fixes at least
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13063
but probably a few other bugzilla entries too (12936, for example), and
is confirmed to fix Rafael's storage driver breakage after resume bug
report (no bugzilla entry).
We should also be able to now revert that ACPI battery fix.

keys: Handle there being no fallback destination keyring for request_key()
When request_key() is called, without there being any standard process
keyrings on which to fall back if a destination keyring is not specified, an
oops is liable to occur when construct_alloc_key() calls down_write() on
dest_keyring's semaphore.
Due to function inlining this may be seen as an oops in down_write() as called
from request_key_and_link().
This situation crops up during boot, where request_key() is called from within
the kernel (such as in CIFS mounts) where nobody is actually logged in, and so
PAM has not had a chance to create a session keyring and user keyrings to act
as the fallback.
To fix this, make construct_alloc_key() not attempt to cache a key if there is
no fallback key if no destination keyring is given specifically.

mutex: have non-spinning mutexes on s390 by default
Impact: performance regression fix for s390
The adaptive spinning mutexes will not always do what one would expect on
virtualized architectures like s390. Especially the cpu_relax() loop in
mutex_spin_on_owner might hurt if the mutex holding cpu has been scheduled
away by the hypervisor.
We would end up in a cpu_relax() loop when there is no chance that the
state of the mutex changes until the target cpu has been scheduled again by
the hypervisor.
For that reason we should change the default behaviour to no-spin on s390.
We do have an instruction which allows to yield the current cpu in favour of
a different target cpu. Also we have an instruction which allows us to figure
out if the target cpu is physically backed.
However we need to do some performance tests until we can come up with
a solution that will do the right thing on s390.

sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load
Freezing tasks via the cgroup freezer causes the load average to climb
because the freezer's current implementation puts frozen tasks in
uninterruptible sleep (D state).
Some applications which perform job-scheduling functions consult the
load average when making decisions. If a cgroup is frozen, the load
average does not provide a useful measure of the system's utilization
to such applications. This is especially inconvenient if the job
scheduler employs the cgroup freezer as a mechanism for preempting low
priority jobs. Contrast this with using SIGSTOP for the same purpose:
the stopped tasks do not count toward system load.
Change task_contributes_to_load() to return false if the task is
frozen. This results in /proc/loadavg behavior that better meets
users' expectations.

work_on_cpu(): rewrite it to create a kernel thread on demand
Impact: circular locking bugfix
The various implemetnations and proposed implemetnations of work_on_cpu()
are vulnerable to various deadlocks because they all used queues of some
form.
Unrelated pieces of kernel code thus gained dependencies wherein if one
work_on_cpu() caller holds a lock which some other work_on_cpu() callback
also takes, the kernel could rarely deadlock.
Fix this by creating a short-lived kernel thread for each work_on_cpu()
invokation.
This is not terribly fast, but the only current caller of work_on_cpu() is
pci_call_probe().
It would be nice to find some other way of doing the node-local
allocations in the PCI probe code so that we can zap work_on_cpu()
altogether. The code there is rather nasty. I can't think of anything
simple at this time...

dm kcopyd: fix callback race
If the thread calling dm_kcopyd_copy is delayed due to scheduling inside
split_job/segment_complete and the subjobs complete before the loop in
split_job completes, the kcopyd callback could be invoked from the
thread that called dm_kcopyd_copy instead of the kcopyd workqueue.
dm_kcopyd_copy -> split_job -> segment_complete -> job->fn()
Snapshots depend on the fact that callbacks are called from the singlethreaded
kcopyd workqueue and expect that there is no racing between individual
callbacks. The racing between callbacks can lead to corruption of exception
store and it can also mean that exception store callbacks are called twice
for the same exception - a likely reason for crashes reported inside
pending_complete() / remove_exception().
This patch fixes two problems:
1. job->fn being called from the thread that submitted the job (see above).
- Fix: hand over the completion callback to the kcopyd thread.
2. job->fn(read_err, write_err, job->context); in segment_complete
reports the error of the last subjob, not the union of all errors.
- Fix: pass job->write_err to the callback to report all error bits
(it is done already in run_complete_job)

Barriers are submitted to a worker thread that issues them in-order.
The thread is modified so that when it sees a barrier request it waits
for all pending IO before the request then submits the barrier and
waits for it. (We must wait, otherwise it could be intermixed with
following requests.)
Errors from the barrier request are recorded in a per-device barrier_error
variable. There may be only one barrier request in progress at once.
For now, the barrier request is converted to a non-barrier request when
sending it to the underlying device.
This patch guarantees correct barrier behavior if the underlying device
doesn't perform write-back caching. The same requirement existed before
barriers were supported in dm.
Bottom layer barrier support (sending barriers by target drivers) and

cap_prctl: don't set error to 0 at 'no_change'
One-liner: capsh --print is broken without this patch.
In certain cases, cap_prctl returns error > 0 for success. However,
the 'no_change' label was always setting error to 0. As a result,
for example, 'prctl(CAP_BSET_READ, N)' would always return 0.
It should return 1 if a process has N in its bounding set (as
by default it does).
I'm keeping the no_change label even though it's now functionally
the same as 'error'.

igb: remove sysfs entry that was used to set the number of vfs
This patch removes the sysfs entry num_vfs which was added to support
enabling pci virtual functions for 82576.
To prevent VFs from loading automatically a module parameter "max_vfs" was
added so that the number of VFs per PF can be limited. This is especially
useful when 4 or more 82576 ports are on the system because otherwise to
load all VFs would result in 8 interface per physical port.

igbvf: add new driver to support 82576 virtual functions
This adds an igbvf driver to handle virtual functions provided by the
igb driver when SR-IOV has been enabled. A virtual function is a
lightweight pci-e function that supports a single queue and shares
resources with the 82576 physical function contained within the igb
driver.
To spawn virtual functions from the igb driver all that is needed is to
enable CONFIG_PCI_IOV and have an 82576 Ethernet adapter on a system that
supports SR-IOV in the BIOS. The virtual functions will appear after the
interface is loaded.
