When nilfs flushes out dirty data to reduce memory pressure, creation
of checkpoints is wrongly postponed.  This bug causes irregular
checkpoint creation especially in small footprint systems.

To correct this issue, a timer for the checkpoint creation has to be
continued if a log writer does not create a checkpoint.

This will do the correction.

Bruno Prémont and Dunphy, Bill noticed me that NILFS will certainly
hang on ARM-based targets.

I found this was caused by an underflow of dirty pages counter.  A
b-tree cache routine was marking page dirty without adjusting page
account information.

This fixes the dirty page accounting leak and resolves the hang on
arm-based targets.

This reverts commit d0646f7b, as
requested by Eric Sandeen.

It can basically cause an ext4 filesystem to miss recovery (and thus get
mounted with errors) if the journal checksum does not match.

Quoth Eric:

   "My hand-wavy hunch about what is happening is that we're finding a
    bad checksum on the last partially-written transaction, which is
    not surprising, but if we have a wrapped log and we're doing the
    initial scan for head/tail, and we abort scanning on that bad
    checksum, then we are essentially running an unrecovered filesystem.

    But that's hand-wavy and I need to go look at the code.

    We lived without journal checksums on by default until now, and at
    this point they're doing more harm than good, so we should revert
    the default-changing commit until we can fix it and do some good
    power-fail testing with the fixes in place."

In try_to_unuse(), swcount is a local copy of *swap_map, including the
SWAP_HAS_CACHE bit; but a wrong comparison against swap_count(*swap_map),
which masks off the SWAP_HAS_CACHE bit, succeeded where it should fail.

That had the effect of resetting the mm from which to start searching
for the next swap page, to an irrelevant mm instead of to an mm in which
this swap page had been found: which may increase search time by ~20%.
But we're used to swapoff being slow, so never noticed the slowdown.

Remove that one spurious use of swap_count(): Bo Liu thought it merely
redundant, Hugh rewrote the description since it was measurably wrong.

In commit c1c7af60 ("drm/i915: force
mode set at lid open time") the intel graphics driver was taught to
restore the LVDS mode on lid open.

That caused problems with interaction with the suspend/resume code,
which commonly runs at the same time (suspend is often caused by the lid
close event, while lid open is commonly a resume event), which was
worked around with in commit 06891e27
("drm/i915: fix suspend/resume breakage in lid notifier").

However, in the meantime the lid event code had also grown a user event
notifier (commit 06324194: "drm/i915:
generate a KMS uevent at lid open/close time"), and now _that_ causes
problems with suspend/resume and some versions of Xorg reacting to those
uevents by setting the mode.

So this effectively reverts that commit 06324194, and makes the lid
open protection logic against suspend/resume more explicit.  This fixes
at least one laptop. See

Mapping the same memory using two different attributes (memory
type, shareability, cacheability) is unpredictable.  During boot,
we encounter a situation when we're updating the kernel's page
tables which can lead to dirty cache lines existing in the cache
which are subsequently missed.  This causes stack corruption,
and therefore a crash.

Therefore, ensure that the shared and cacheability settings
matches the configuration that will be used later; this together
with the restriction in early_cachepolicy() ensures that we won't
create a mismatch during boot.

The patch below also addresses a couple of other corner cases in readdir
seen with a large (e.g. 64k) msize.  I'm not sure what people think of
my co-opting of fid->aux here.  I'd be happy to rework if there's a better
way.

When the size of the user supplied buffer passed to readdir is smaller
than the data returned in one go by the 9P read request, v9fs_dir_readdir()
currently discards extra data so that, on the next call, a 9P read
request will be issued with offset < previous offset + bytes returned,
which voilates the constraint described in paragraph 3 of read(5) description.
This patch preseves the leftover data in fid->aux for use in the next call.

I do not know if you've looked on the patch, but unfortunately it is
incorrect. A suggested better version is in this email (the old
version didn't work in case the user provided buffer was not long
enough - it incorrectly appended null byte on a position of last char,
and thus broke the contract of the readlink method). However, I'm
still not sure this is 100% correct thing to do, I think readlink is
supposed to return buffer without last null byte in all cases, but we
do return last null byte (even the old version).. on the other hand it
is likely unspecified what is in the remaining part of the buffer, so
null character may be fine there ;):

Don't pass NULL pointers to fput() in the error handling paths of the NOMMU
do_mmap_pgoff() as it can't handle it.

The following can be used as a test program:

	int main() { static long long a[1024 * 1024 * 20] = { 0 }; return a;}

Without the patch, the code oopses in atomic_long_dec_and_test() as called by
fput() after the kernel complains that it can't allocate that big a chunk of
memory.  With the patch, the kernel just complains about the allocation size
and then the program segfaults during execve() as execve() can't complete the
allocation of all the new ELF program segments.
