38e23c95f9 fs: Mark get_filesystem_list() as __init function.
"int get_filesystem_list(char * buf)" is called by only
"static void __init get_fs_names(char *page)".
We can mark get_filesystem_list() as "__init".

2eae7a1874 kill vfs_stat_fd / vfs_lstat_fd
There's really no reason to keep vfs_stat_fd and vfs_lstat_fd with
Oleg's vfs_fstatat.  Use vfs_fstatat for the few cases having the
directory fd, and switch all others to vfs_stat / vfs_lstat.

2f9092e102 Fix i_mutex vs. readdir handling in nfsd
Commit 14f7dd63 ("Copy XFS readdir hack into nfsd code") introduced a
bug to generic code which had been extant for a long time in the XFS
version -- it started to call through into lookup_one_len() and hence
into the file systems' ->lookup() methods without i_mutex held on the
directory.

This patch fixes it by locking the directory's i_mutex again before
calling the filldir functions. The original deadlocks which commit
14f7dd63 was designed to avoid are still avoided, because they were due
to fs-internal locking, not i_mutex.

While we're at it, fix the return type of nfsd_buffered_readdir() which
should be a __be32 not an int -- it's an NFS errno, not a Linux errno.
And return nfserrno(-ENOMEM) when allocation fails, not just -ENOMEM.
Sparse would have caught that, if it wasn't so busy bitching about
__cold__.

Commit 05f4f678 ("nfsd4: don't do lookup within readdir in recovery
code") introduced a similar problem with calling lookup_one_len()
without i_mutex, which this patch also addresses. To fix that, it was
necessary to fix the called functions so that they expect i_mutex to be
held; that part was done by J. Bruce Fields.

8c594ea81d Btrfs: use the right node in reada_for_balance
reada_for_balance was using the wrong index into the path node array,
so it wasn't reading the right blocks.  We never directly used the
results of the read done by this function because the btree search is
started over at the end.

This fixes reada_for_balance to reada in the correct node and to
avoid searching past the last slot in the node.  It also makes sure to
hold the parent lock while we are finding the nodes to read.

11c8349b4e Btrfs: fix oops on page->mapping->host during writepage
The extent_io writepage call updates the writepage index in the inode
as it makes progress.  But, it was doing the update after unlocking the page,
which isn't legal because page->mapping can't be trusted once the page
is unlocked.

This lead to an oops, especially common with compression turned on.  The
fix here is to update the writeback index before unlocking the page.

d313d7a31a Btrfs: add a priority queue to the async thread helpers
Btrfs is using WRITE_SYNC_PLUG to send down synchronous IOs with a
higher priority.  But, the checksumming helper threads prevent it
from being fully effective.

There are two problems.  First, a big queue of pending checksumming
will delay the synchronous IO behind other lower priority writes.  Second,
the checksumming uses an ordered async work queue.  The ordering makes sure
that IOs are sent to the block layer in the same order they are sent
to the checksumming threads.  Usually this gives us less seeky IO.

But, when we start mixing IO priorities, the lower priority IO can delay
the higher priority IO.

This patch solves both problems by adding a high priority list to the async
helper threads, and a new btrfs_set_work_high_prio(), which is used
to make put a new async work item onto the higher priority list.

The ordering is still done on high priority IO, but all of the high
priority bios are ordered separately from the low priority bios.  This
ordering is purely an IO optimization, it is not involved in data
or metadata integrity.

ffbd517d5a Btrfs: use WRITE_SYNC for synchronous writes
Part of reducing fsync/O_SYNC/O_DIRECT latencies is using WRITE_SYNC for
writes we plan on waiting on in the near future.  This patch
mirrors recent changes in other filesystems and the generic code to
use WRITE_SYNC when WB_SYNC_ALL is passed and to use WRITE_SYNC for
other latency critical writes.

Btrfs uses async worker threads for checksumming before the write is done,
and then again to actually submit the bios.  The bio submission code just
runs a per-device list of bios that need to be sent down the pipe.

This list is split into low priority and high priority lists so the
WRITE_SYNC IO happens first.

8a577ffc75 driver: dont update dev_name via device_add path
notice one system /proc/iomem some entries missed the name for pci_devices

it turns that dev->dev.kobj name is changed after device_add.

for pci code: via acpi_pci_root_driver.ops.add (aka acpi_pci_root_add)
==> pci_acpi_scan_root is used to scan pci bus/device, and at the same
time we read the resource for pci_dev in the pci_read_bases, we have
res->name = pci_name(pci_dev); pci_name is calling dev_name.

later via acpi_pci_root_driver.ops.start (aka acpi_pci_root_start) ==>
pci_bus_add_device to add all pci_dev in kobj tree.  pci_bus_add_device
will call device_add.

actually in device_add

        /* first, register with generic layer. */
        error = kobject_add(&dev->kobj, dev->kobj.parent, "%s", dev_name(dev));
        if (error)
                goto Error;

will get one new name for that kobj, old name is freed.

6a7c7eaf71 PM/Suspend: Introduce two new platform callbacks to avoid breakage
Commit 900af0d973 (PM: Change suspend
code ordering) changed the ordering of suspend code in such a way
that the platform .prepare() callback is now executed after the
device drivers' late suspend callbacks have run.  Unfortunately, this
turns out to break ARM platforms that need to talk via I2C to power
control devices during the .prepare() callback.

For this reason introduce two new platform suspend callbacks,
.prepare_late() and .wake(), that will be called just prior to
disabling non-boot CPUs and right after bringing them back on line,
respectively, and use them instead of .prepare() and .finish() for
ACPI suspend.  Make the PM core execute the .prepare() and .finish()
platform suspend callbacks where they were executed previously (that
is, right after calling the regular suspend methods provided by
device drivers and right before executing their regular resume
methods, respectively).

It is not necessary to make analogous changes to the hibernation
code and data structures at the moment, because they are only used
by ACPI platforms.

<linux/seccomp.h> uses EINVAL so should include <linux/errno.h>.  This
fixes a build error on 64-bit MIPS if CONFIG_SECCOMP is disabled.

613cbe3d48 Don't set relatime when noatime is specified
Since commit 0a1c01c947 ("Make relatime
default") when a file system is mounted explicitely with noatime it gets
both the MNT_RELATIME and MNT_NOATIME bits set.

This shows up like this in /proc/mounts:

  /dev/xxx /yyy ext3 rw,noatime,relatime,errors=continue,data=writeback 0 0

That looks strange.  The VFS uses noatime in this case, but both flags
are set.  So it's more a cosmetic issue, but still better to fix.

38cfe96804 lguest: document 32-bit and PAE requirements
Robert noted that we don't actually document that lguest is 32-bit only,
nor that PAE must be off (CONFIG_PAE is now prompted for if HIGHMEM is
set to "off).

84a139a985 virtio: fix suspend when using virtio_balloon
Break out of wait_event_interruptible() if freezing has been requested,
in the vballoon thread. Without this change vballoon refuses to stop and
the system can't suspend.

a489f0b555 lguest: fix guest crash on non-linear addresses in gdt pvops
Fixes guest crash 'lguest: bad read address 0x4800000 len 256'

The new per-cpu allocator ends up handing a non-linear address to
write_gdt_entry.  We do __pa() on it, and hand it to the host, which
kills us.

I've long wanted to make the hypercall "LOAD_GDT_ENTRY" to match the IDT
code, but had no pressing reason until now.
