This reverts commit d3805611.

If we end up splitting on the first segment, we don't adjust
the sector count. That results in hitting a BUG() with attempting
to split 0 sectors.

As this is just a performance issue and not a regression since
4.3 release, let's just rever this change. That gives us more
time to test a real fix for 4.5, which would be marked for
stable anyway.

The dmi_ver wasn't updated correctly before the dmi_decode method run
to save the uuid.

That resulted in "dmidecode -s system-uuid" and
/sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid disagreeing. The latter was buggy and
this fixes it.

 "PeiyangX Qiu reported that if a module fails to load between calling

  The solution is to call ftrace_release_mod() on the failing module in
  the fail path befor do_init_module() is called.  This will remove any
  allocations made for that module, and nothing if ftrace_module_init()
  wasn't called yet for that module.

  Note, once do_init_module() is called, the MODULE_GOING notifiers are
  called for the failed module, which calls into the ftrace code to do
  the proper clean up (basically calling ftrace_release_mod())"

* tag 'trace-v4.4-rc4-4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
  ftrace/module: Call clean up function when module init fails early

If the module init code fails after calling ftrace_module_init() and before
calling do_init_module(), we can suffer from a memory leak. This is because
ftrace_module_init() allocates pages to store the locations that ftrace
hooks are placed in the module text. If do_init_module() fails, it still
calls the MODULE_GOING notifiers which will tell ftrace to do a clean up of
the pages it allocated for the module. But if load_module() fails before
then, the pages allocated by ftrace_module_init() will never be freed.

Call ftrace_release_mod() on the module if load_module() fails before
getting to do_init_module().

When mapping a non-page-aligned scatterlist entry, we copy the original
offset to the output DMA address before aligning it to hand off to
iommu_map_sg(), then later adding the IOVA page address portion to get
the final mapped address. However, when the IOVA page size is smaller
than the CPU page size, it is the offset within the IOVA page we want,
not that within the CPU page, which can easily be larger than an IOVA
page and thus result in an incorrect final address.

Fix the bug by taking only the IOVA-aligned part of the offset as the
basis of the DMA address, not the whole thing.

Patch 3759824d ("tcp: PRR uses CRB mode by default and SS mode
conditionally") introduced a bug that cwnd may become 0 when both
inflight and sndcnt are 0 (cwnd = inflight + sndcnt). This may lead
to a div-by-zero if the connection starts another cwnd reduction
phase by setting tp->prior_cwnd to the current cwnd (0) in
tcp_init_cwnd_reduction().

To prevent this we skip PRR operation when nothing is acked or
sacked. Then cwnd must be positive in all cases as long as ssthresh
is positive:

1) The proportional reduction mode
   inflight > ssthresh > 0

2) The reduction bound mode
  a) inflight == ssthresh > 0

  b) inflight < ssthresh
     sndcnt > 0 since newly_acked_sacked > 0 and inflight < ssthresh

Therefore in all cases inflight and sndcnt can not both be 0.
We check invalid tp->prior_cwnd to avoid potential div0 bugs.

In reality this bug is triggered only with a sequence of less common
events.  For example, the connection is terminating an ECN-triggered
cwnd reduction with an inflight 0, then it receives reordered/old
ACKs or DSACKs from prior transmission (which acks nothing). Or the
connection is in fast recovery stage that marks everything lost,
but fails to retransmit due to local issues, then receives data
packets from other end which acks nothing.

sixpack_close is called by the tty layer in tty context. The tty context is
protected by sp_get() and sp_put(). However network layer activity via
sp_xmit() is not protected this way. We must therefore stop the queue

Spansion and Winbond have occasionally used the same manufacturer ID,
and they don't support the same features. Particularly, writing SR=0
seems to break read access for Spansion's s25fl064k. Unfortunately, we
don't currently have a way to differentiate these Spansion and Winbond
parts, so rather than regressing support for these Spansion flash, let's
drop the new Winbond lock/unlock support for now. We can try to address
Winbond support during the next release cycle.

On 2015/11/06, Dmitry Vyukov reported a deadlock involving the splice
system call and AF_UNIX sockets,

http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2015/11/06/24

The situation was analyzed as

(a while ago) A: socketpair()
B: splice() from a pipe to /mnt/regular_file
	does sb_start_write() on /mnt
C: try to freeze /mnt
	wait for B to finish with /mnt
A: bind() try to bind our socket to /mnt/new_socket_name
	lock our socket, see it not bound yet
	decide that it needs to create something in /mnt
	try to do sb_start_write() on /mnt, block (it's
	waiting for C).
D: splice() from the same pipe to our socket
	lock the pipe, see that socket is connected
	try to lock the socket, block waiting for A
B:	get around to actually feeding a chunk from
	pipe to file, try to lock the pipe.  Deadlock.

The patch fixes this by removing the kern_path_create related code from
unix_mknod and executing it as part of unix_bind prior acquiring the
readlock of the socket in question. This means that A (as used above)
will sb_start_write on /mnt before it acquires the readlock, hence, it
won't indirectly block B which first did a sb_start_write and then
waited for a thread trying to acquire the readlock. Consequently, A
being blocked by C waiting for B won't cause a deadlock anymore
(effectively, both A and B acquire two locks in opposite order in the
situation described above).

Dmitry Vyukov(<dvyukov@google.com>) tested the original patch.
