PCI: clear bridge resource range if BIOS assigned bad one
Yannick found that video does not work with 2.6.34. The cause of this
bug was that the BIOS had assigned the wrong range to the PCI bridge
above the video device. Before 2.6.34 the kernel would have shrunk
the size of the bridge window, but since
d65245c PCI: don't shrink bridge resources
the kernel will avoid shrinking BIOS ranges.
So zero out the old range if we fail to claim it at boot time; this will
cause us to allocate a new range at startup, restoring the 2.6.34
behavior.

Btrfs: avoid BUG when dropping root and reference in same transaction
If btrfs_ioctl_snap_destroy() deletes a snapshot but finishes
with end_transaction(), the cleaner kthread may come in and
drop the root in the same transaction. If that's the case, the
root's refs still == 1 in the tree when btrfs_del_root() deletes
the item, because commit_fs_roots() hasn't updated it yet (that
happens during the commit).
This wasn't a problem before only because
btrfs_ioctl_snap_destroy() would commit the transaction before dropping
the dentry reference, so the dead root wouldn't get queued up until
after the fs root item was updated in the btree.
Since it is not an error to drop the root reference and the root in the
same transaction, just drop the BUG_ON() in btrfs_del_root().

net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matches
Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will
drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and
is not one of the special pkts tested for in
skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then
the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan.
For example,
vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx
will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any
packet handlers at all. However,
bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx
and
bond0 -> ethx
will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev,
because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a
slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only
delivers them to exact matches.
This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging
skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the
skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add
logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it
is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This
makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers
a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves.
Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be
delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others
be dropped out right in the vlan path.
I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes
and load balancing modes.

sata_sil24: memset() overflow
cb->atapi.cdb is an array of 16 u8 elements. The call too memset()
would set the first part of the sge array to zero as well. It's not
a packed struct.
This one has been around for five years. I found it with Smatch. I
think the reason no one has seen it before is because we normally call
sil24_fill_sg() and that overwrites sge with proper information?

gianfar: Revive the driver for eTSEC devices (disable timestamping)
Since commit
cc772ab7cdcaa24d1fae332d92a1602788644f7a ("gianfar: Add
hardware RX timestamping support"), the driver no longer works on
at least MPC8313ERDB and MPC8568EMDS boards (and possibly much more
boards as well).
That's how MPC8313 Reference Manual describes RCTRL_TS_ENABLE bit:
Timestamp incoming packets as padding bytes. PAL field is set
to 8 if the PAL field is programmed to less than 8. Must be set
to zero if TMR_CTRL[TE]=0.
I see that the commit above sets this bit, but it doesn't handle
TMR_CTRL. Manfred probably had this bit set by the firmware for
his boards. But obviously this isn't true for all boards in the
wild.
Also, I recall that Freescale BSPs were explicitly disabling the
timestamping because of a performance drop.
For now, the best way to deal with this is just disable the
timestamping, and later we can discuss proper device tree bindings
and implement enabling this feature via some property.

'p' command returns an error string, which causes gdb to abort its

Not all gdb versions are affected, some use try 'g' first, and if that

powerpc: Enable asymmetric SMT scheduling on POWER7
The POWER7 core has dynamic SMT mode switching which is controlled by
the hypervisor. There are 3 SMT modes:
SMT1 uses thread 0
SMT2 uses threads 0 & 1
SMT4 uses threads 0, 1, 2 & 3
When in any particular SMT mode, all threads have the same performance
as each other (ie. at any moment in time, all threads perform the same).
The SMT mode switching works such that when linux has threads 2 & 3 idle
and 0 & 1 active, it will cede (H_CEDE hypercall) threads 2 and 3 in the
idle loop and the hypervisor will automatically switch to SMT2 for that
core (independent of other cores). The opposite is not true, so if
threads 0 & 1 are idle and 2 & 3 are active, we will stay in SMT4 mode.
Similarly if thread 0 is active and threads 1, 2 & 3 are idle, we'll go
into SMT1 mode.
If we can get the core into a lower SMT mode (SMT1 is best), the threads
will perform better (since they share less core resources). Hence when

sched: Add asymmetric group packing option for sibling domain
Check to see if the group is packed in a sched doman.
This is primarily intended to used at the sibling level. Some cores
like POWER7 prefer to use lower numbered SMT threads. In the case of
POWER7, it can move to lower SMT modes only when higher threads are
idle. When in lower SMT modes, the threads will perform better since
they share less core resources. Hence when we have idle threads, we
want them to be the higher ones.
This adds a hook into f_b_g() called check_asym_packing() to check the
packing. This packing function is run on idle threads. It checks to
see if the busiest CPU in this domain (core in the P7 case) has a
higher CPU number than what where the packing function is being run
on. If it is, calculate the imbalance and return the higher busier
thread as the busiest group to f_b_g(). Here we are assuming a lower
CPU number will be equivalent to a lower SMT thread number.
It also creates a new SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to enable this feature at
any scheduler domain level.
It also creates an arch hook to enable this feature at the sibling
level. The default function doesn't enable this feature.

sched: Fix capacity calculations for SMT4
Handle cpu capacity being reported as 0 on cores with more number of
hardware threads. For example on a Power7 core with 4 hardware
threads, core power is 1177 and thus power of each hardware thread is
1177/4 = 294. This low power can lead to capacity for each hardware
thread being calculated as 0, which leads to tasks bouncing within the
core madly!
Fix this by reporting capacity for hardware threads as 1, provided
their power is not scaled down significantly because of frequency
scaling or real-time tasks usage of cpu.

sched: Change nohz idle load balancing logic to push model
In the new push model, all idle CPUs indeed go into nohz mode. There is
still the concept of idle load balancer (performing the load balancing
on behalf of all the idle cpu's in the system). Busy CPU kicks the nohz
balancer when any of the nohz CPUs need idle load balancing.
The kickee CPU does the idle load balancing on behalf of all idle CPUs
instead of the normal idle balance.
This addresses the below two problems with the current nohz ilb logic:
* the idle load balancer continued to have periodic ticks during idle and
wokeup frequently, even though it did not have any rebalancing to do on
behalf of any of the idle CPUs.
* On x86 and CPUs that have APIC timer stoppage on idle CPUs, this
periodic wakeup can result in a periodic additional interrupt on a CPU
doing the timer broadcast.
Also currently we are migrating the unpinned timers from an idle to the cpu
doing idle load balancing (when all the cpus in the system are idle,
there is no idle load balancing cpu and timers get added to the same idle cpu
where the request was made. So the existing optimization works only on semi idle
system).
And In semi idle system, we no longer have periodic ticks on the idle load
balancer CPU. Using that cpu will add more delays to the timers than intended
(as that cpu's timer base may not be uptodate wrt jiffies etc). This was
causing mysterious slowdowns during boot etc.
For now, in the semi idle case, use the nearest busy cpu for migrating timers
from an idle cpu. This is good for power-savings anyway.

sched: Avoid side-effect of tickless idle on update_cpu_load
tickless idle has a negative side effect on update_cpu_load(), which
in turn can affect load balancing behavior.
update_cpu_load() is supposed to be called every tick, to keep track
of various load indicies. With tickless idle, there are no scheduler
ticks called on the idle CPUs. Idle CPUs may still do load balancing
(with idle_load_balance CPU) using the stale cpu_load. It will also
cause problems when all CPUs go idle for a while and become active
again. In this case loads would not degrade as expected.
This is how rq->nr_load_updates change looks like under different
conditions:

That is update_cpu_load works properly only when all CPUs are busy.
If all are idle, all the CPUs get way lower updates. And when few
CPUs are busy and rest are idle, only busy and ilb CPU does proper
updates and rest of the idle CPUs will do lower updates.
The patch keeps track of when a last update was done and fixes up
the load avg based on current time.
On one of my test system SPECjbb with warehouse 1..numcpus, patch
improves throughput numbers by ~1% (average of 6 runs). On another
test system (with different domain hierarchy) there is no noticable
change in perf.

writeback: limit write_cache_pages integrity scanning to current EOF
sync can currently take a really long time if a concurrent writer is
extending a file. The problem is that the dirty pages on the address
space grow in the same direction as write_cache_pages scans, so if
the writer keeps ahead of writeback, the writeback will not
terminate until the writer stops adding dirty pages.
For a data integrity sync, we only need to write the pages dirty at
the time we start the writeback, so we can stop scanning once we get
to the page that was at the end of the file at the time the scan
started.
This will prevent operations like copying a large file preventing
sync from completing as it will not write back pages that were
dirtied after the sync was started. This does not impact the
existing integrity guarantees, as any dirty page (old or new)
within the EOF range at the start of the scan will still be
captured.
This patch will not prevent sync from blocking on large writes into
holes. That requires more complex intervention while this patch only
addresses the common append-case of this sync holdoff.

writeback: pay attention to wbc->nr_to_write in write_cache_pages
If a filesystem writes more than one page in ->writepage, write_cache_pages
fails to notice this and continues to attempt writeback when wbc->nr_to_write
has gone negative - this trace was captured from XFS:
wbc_writeback_start: towrt=1024
wbc_writepage: towrt=1024
wbc_writepage: towrt=0
wbc_writepage: towrt=-1
wbc_writepage: towrt=-5

needs to terminate after a certain number of pages are written, not after a
certain number of calls to ->writepage are made. This is a regression
