When CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONED_MASTER=y, it is fatal to call
mtd_device_parse_register() twice on the same MTD, as we try to register
the same device/kobject multipile times.

When CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONED_MASTER=n, calling
mtd_device_parse_register() is more of just a nuisance, as we can mostly
navigate around any conflicting actions.

But anyway, doing so is a Bad Thing (TM), and we should complain loudly
for any drivers that try to do this.

add_mtd_device() has a comment suggesting that the caller should have

up in sysfs, but not for proper operation of the mtd device itself.
Currently we have five drivers registering mtd devices during module
initialization, so they don't actually provide a parent device to link
to. That means we cannot WARN_ON() here, as it would trigger false
positives.

For many use cases, it helps to have a device node for the entire
MTD device as well as device nodes for the individual partitions.
For example, this allows querying the entire device's properties.
A common idiom is to create an additional partition which spans
over the whole device.

This patch makes a config option, CONFIG_MTD_PARTITIONED_MASTER,
which makes the master partition present even when the device is
partitioned. This isn't turned on by default since it presents
a backwards-incompatible device numbering.

The patch also makes the parent of a partition device be the master,

When checking the upper boundary (i.e., whether an address is higher

If a write to one time programmable memory (OTP) hits the end of this
memory area, no more data can be written. The count variable in
mtdchar_write() in drivers/mtd/mtdchar.c is not decreased anymore.
We are trapped in the loop forever, mtdchar_write() will never return
in this case.

The desired behavior of a write in such a case is described in [1]:
- Try to write as much data as possible, truncate the write to fit into
  the available memory and return the number of bytes that actually
  have been written.
- If no data could be written at all, return -ENOSPC.

This patch fixes the behavior of OTP write if there is not enough space
for all data:

1) mtd_write_user_prot_reg() in drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c is modified to
   return -ENOSPC if no data could be written at all.
2) mtdchar_write() is modified to handle -ENOSPC correctly. Exit if a
   write returned -ENOSPC and yield the correct return value, either
   then number of bytes that could be written, or -ENOSPC, if no data
   could be written at all.

Furthermore the patch harmonizes the behavior of the OTP memory write
in drivers/mtd/devices/mtd_dataflash.c with the other implementations
and the requirements from [1]. Instead of returning -EINVAL if the data
does not fit into the OTP memory, we try to write as much data as
possible/truncate the write.

The MTD subsystem has historically tried to be as configurable as possible. The
side-effect of this is that its configuration menu is rather large, and we are
gradually shrinking it. For example, we recently merged partitions support with
the mtdcore.

This patch does the next step - it merges the mtdchar module to mtdcore. And in
this case this is not only about eliminating too fine-grained separation and
simplifying the configuration menu. This is also about eliminating seemingly
useless kernel module.

Indeed, mtdchar is a module that allows user-space making use of MTD devices
via /dev/mtd* character devices. If users do not enable it, they simply cannot
use MTD devices at all. They cannot read or write the flash contents. Is it a
sane and useful setup? I believe not. And everyone just enables mtdchar.

Having mtdchar separate is also a little bit harmful. People sometimes miss the
fact that they need to enable an additional configuration option to have
user-space MTD interfaces, and then they wonder why on earth the kernel does
not allow using the flash? They spend time asking around.

Thus, let's just get rid of this module and make it part of mtd core.

Note, mtdchar had additional configuration option to enable OTP interfaces,
which are present on some flashes. I removed that option as well - it saves a
really tiny amount space.

[dwmw2: Strictly speaking, you can mount file systems on MTD devices just
        fine without the mtdchar (or mtdblock) devices; you just can't do
        other manipulations directly on the underlying device. But still I
        agree that it makes sense to make this unconditional. And Yay! we
        get to kill off an instance of checking CONFIG_foo_MODULE, which is
        an abomination that should never happen.]

'mtd_device_parse_register()' and 'parse_mtd_partitions()' functions accept a

At the moment, the argument type is 'const char **', which means that only the

This reverts commits a5091539 and

This is a revert of a revert of a revert.  In addition, it reverts the
even older i915 change to stop using the __GFP_NO_KSWAPD flag due to the
original commits in linux-next.

It turns out that the original patch really was bogus, and that the
original revert was the correct thing to do after all.  We thought we
had fixed the problem, and then reverted the revert, but the problem
really is fundamental: waking up kswapd simply isn't the right thing to
do, and direct reclaim sometimes simply _is_ the right thing to do.

When certain allocations fail, we simply should try some direct reclaim,
and if that fails, fail the allocation.  That's the right thing to do
for THP allocations, which can easily fail, and the GPU allocations want
to do that too.

So starting kswapd is sometimes simply wrong, and removing the flag that
said "don't start kswapd" was a mistake.  Let's hope we never revisit
this mistake again - and certainly not this many times ;)

  Hmm,  so it's just took longer to hit the problem and observe
  kswapd0 spinning on my CPU again - it's not as endless like before -
  but still it easily eats minutes - it helps to	turn off  Firefox

    prune_super+0x149/0x1b0
    shrink_slab+0xba/0x510

The sysrq+m indicates the system has no swap so it'll never reclaim
anonymous pages as part of reclaim/compaction.  That is one part of the
problem but not the root cause as file-backed pages could also be
reclaimed.

The likely underlying problem is that kswapd is woken up or kept awake
for each THP allocation request in the page allocator slow path.

If compaction fails for the requesting process then compaction will be
deferred for a time and direct reclaim is avoided.  However, if there
are a storm of THP requests that are simply rejected, it will still be
the the case that kswapd is awake for a prolonged period of time as
pgdat->kswapd_max_order is updated each time.  This is noticed by the
main kswapd() loop and it will not call kswapd_try_to_sleep().  Instead
it will loopp, shrinking a small number of pages and calling
shrink_slab() on each iteration.

The temptation is to supply a patch that checks if kswapd was woken for
THP and if so ignore pgdat->kswapd_max_order but it'll be a hack and not
backed up by proper testing.  As 3.7 is very close to release and this
is not a bug we should release with, a safer path is to revert "mm:
remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD" for now and revisit it with the view to ironing
out the balance_pgdat() logic in general.

When transparent huge pages were introduced, memory compaction and swap
storms were an issue, and the kernel had to be careful to not make THP
allocations cause pageout or compaction.

Now that we have working compaction deferral, kswapd is smart enough to
invoke compaction and the quadratic behaviour around isolate_free_pages
has been fixed, it should be safe to remove __GFP_NO_KSWAPD.

mtd_read_oob() has some unexpected similarities to mtd_read(). For
instance, when ops->datbuf != NULL, nand_base.c might return max_bitflips;
however, when ops->datbuf == NULL, nand_base's code potentially could
return -EUCLEAN (no in-tree drivers do this yet). In any case where the
driver might return max_bitflips, we should translate this into an
appropriate return code using the bitflip_threshold.

Essentially, mtd_read_oob() duplicates the logic from mtd_read().

This prevents users of mtd_read_oob() from receiving a positive return
value (i.e., from max_bitflips) and interpreting it as an unknown error.

The drivers' _read() method, absent an error, returns a non-negative integer
indicating the maximum number of bit errors that were corrected in any one
region comprising an ecc step.  MTD returns -EUCLEAN if this is >=
bitflip_threshold, 0 otherwise.  If bitflip_threshold is zero, the comparison is
not made since these devices lack ECC and always return zero in the non-error
case (thanks Brian)¹.  Note that this is a subtle change to the driver
