commit d6580a9f ("kexec: sysrq: simplify
sysrq-c handler") changed the behavior of sysrq-c to unconditional
dereference of NULL pointer.  So in cases with CONFIG_KEXEC, where
crash_kexec() was directly called from sysrq-c before, now it can be said
that a step of "real oops" was inserted before starting kdump.

However, in contrast to oops via SysRq-c from keyboard which results in
panic due to in_interrupt(), oops via "echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger" will
not become panic unless panic_on_oops=1.  It means that even if dump is
properly configured to be taken on panic, the sysrq-c from proc interface
might not start crashdump while the sysrq-c from keyboard can start
crashdump.  This confuses traditional users of kdump, i.e.  people who
expect sysrq-c to do common behavior in both of the keyboard and proc
interface.

This patch brings the keyboard and proc interface behavior of sysrq-c in
line, by forcing panic_on_oops=1 before oops in sysrq-c handler.

And some updates in documentation are included, to clarify that there is
no longer dependency with CONFIG_KEXEC, and that now the system can just
crash by sysrq-c if no dump mechanism is configured.

When a slab cache uses SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, we must be careful when allocating
objects, since slab allocator could give a freed object still used by lockless
readers.

In particular, nf_conntrack RCU lookups rely on ct->tuplehash[xxx].hnnode.next
being always valid (ie containing a valid 'nulls' value, or a valid pointer to next
object in hash chain.)

kmem_cache_zalloc() setups object with NULL values, but a NULL value is not valid
for ct->tuplehash[xxx].hnnode.next.

Fix is to call kmem_cache_alloc() and do the zeroing ourself.

As spotted by Patrick, we also need to make sure lookup keys are committed to
memory before setting refcount to 1, or a lockless reader could get a reference
on the old version of the object. Its key re-check could then pass the barrier.

Add two new spi_device.mode bits to accomodate more protocol options, and
pass them through to usermode drivers:

 * SPI_NO_CS ... a second 3-wire variant, where the chipselect
   line is removed instead of a data line; transfers are still
   full duplex.

   This obviously has STRONG protocol implications since the
   chipselect transitions can't be used to synchronize state
   transitions with the SPI master.

 * SPI_READY ... defines open drain signal that's pulled low
   to pause the clock.  This defines a 5-wire variant (normal
   4-wire SPI plus READY) and two 4-wire variants (READY plus
   each of the 3-wire flavors).

   Such hardware flow control can be a big win.  There are ADC
   converters and flash chips that expose READY signals, but not
   many host controllers support it today.

The spi_bitbang code should be changed to use SPI_NO_CS instead of its
current nonportable hack.  That's a mode most hardware can easily support
(unlike SPI_READY).

There already is a "default-on" trigger but there are problems with it.

For one, it's a inefficient way to do it and requires led trigger support
to be compiled in.

But the real reason is that is produces a glitch on the LED.  The GPIO is
allocate with the LED *off*, then *later* when the trigger runs it is
turned back on.  If the LED was already on via the GPIO's reset default or
action of the firmware, this produces a glitch where the LED goes from on
to off to on.  While normally this is fast enough that it wouldn't be
noticeable to a human observer, there are still serious problems.

One is that there may be something else on the GPIO line, like a hardware
alarm or watchdog, that is fast enough to notice the glitch.

Another is that the kernel may panic before the LED is turned back on, thus
hanging with the LED in the wrong state.  This is not just speculation, but
actually happened to me with an embedded system that has an LED which
should turn off when the kernel finishes booting, which was left in the
incorrect state due to a bug in the OF LED binding code.

We also let GPIO LEDs get their initial value from whatever the current
state of the GPIO line is.  On some systems the LEDs are put into some
state by the firmware or hardware before Linux boots, and it is desired to
have them keep this state which is otherwise unknown to Linux.

This requires that the underlying GPIO driver support reading the value of
output GPIOs.  Some drivers support this and some do not.

The platform device binding gains a field in the platform data
"default_state" that controls this.  There are three constants defined to
select from on, off, or keeping the current state.  The OpenFirmware
binding uses a property named "default-state" that can be set to "on",
"off", or "keep".  The default if the property isn't present is off.

This helper chip can drive up to 8 leds, with two programmable DIM
modes; it could even be used as a gpio expander but this driver assumes
it is used as a led controller.

The DIM modes are used to set _blink_ patterns for leds, the pattern is
specified supplying two parameters:
  - period: from 0s to 1.6s
  - duty cycle: percentage of the period the led is on, from 0 to 100

LP3944 can be found on Motorola A910 smartphone, where it drives the rgb

This patch contains a device-mapper mirror log module that forwards
requests to userspace for processing.

The structures used for communication between kernel and userspace are
located in include/linux/dm-log-userspace.h.  Due to the frequency,
diversity, and 2-way communication nature of the exchanges between
kernel and userspace, 'connector' was chosen as the interface for
communication.

The first log implementations written in userspace - "clustered-disk"
and "clustered-core" - support clustered shared storage.   A userspace
daemon (in the LVM2 source code repository) uses openAIS/corosync to
process requests in an ordered fashion with the rest of the nodes in the
cluster so as to prevent log state corruption.  Other implementations
with no association to LVM or openAIS/corosync, are certainly possible.

(Imagine if two machines are writing to the same region of a mirror.
They would both mark the region dirty, but you need a cluster-aware
entity that can handle properly marking the region clean when they are
done.  Otherwise, you might clear the region when the first machine is
done, not the second.)
