      Pull workqueue / powernow-k8 fix from Tejun Heo:
       "This is the fix for the bug where cpufreq/powernow-k8 was tripping
        BUG_ON() in try_to_wake_up_local() by migrating workqueue worker to a

        the actual fix which makes powernow-k8 use work_on_cpu() instead of
        performing manual migration.
      
        While pretty late in the merge cycle, both changes are on the safer
        side.  Jiri and I verified two existing users of work_on_cpu() and

      cpufreq/powernow-k8: workqueue user shouldn't migrate the kworker to another CPU · 6889125b
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      powernowk8_target() runs off a per-cpu work item and if the
      cpufreq_policy->cpu is different from the current one, it migrates the
      kworker to the target CPU by manipulating current->cpus_allowed.  The
      function migrates the kworker back to the original CPU but this is
      still broken.  Workqueue concurrency management requires the kworkers
      to stay on the same CPU and powernowk8_target() ends up triggerring
      BUG_ON(rq != this_rq()) in try_to_wake_up_local() if it contends on
      fidvid_mutex and sleeps.
      
      It is unclear why this bug is being reported now.  Duncan says it
      appeared to be a regression of 3.6-rc1 and couldn't reproduce it on
      3.5.  Bisection seemed to point to 63d95a91 "workqueue: use @pool
      instead of @gcwq or @cpu where applicable" which is an non-functional
      change.  Given that the reproduce case sometimes took upto days to
      trigger, it's easy to be misled while bisecting.  Maybe something made
      contention on fidvid_mutex more likely?  I don't know.
      
      This patch fixes the bug by using work_on_cpu() instead if @pol->cpu
      isn't the same as the current one.  The code assumes that
      cpufreq_policy->cpu is kept online by the caller, which Rafael tells
      me is the case.
      
      stable: ed48ece2 ("workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using

      workqueue: reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq · ed48ece2
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      The existing work_on_cpu() implementation is hugely inefficient.  It
      creates a new kthread, execute that single function and then let the
      kthread die on each invocation.
      
      Now that system_wq can handle concurrent executions, there's no
      advantage of doing this.  Reimplement work_on_cpu() using system_wq
      which makes it simpler and way more efficient.
      
      stable: While this isn't a fix in itself, it's needed to fix a
              workqueue related bug in cpufreq/powernow-k8.  AFAICS, this
              shouldn't break other existing users.

      Stephen M. Cameron 提交于
      If a command completes with a status of CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR, this
      information should be conveyed to the SCSI mid layer, not dropped
      on the floor.  Unlike a similar bug in the hpsa driver, this bug
      only affects tape drives and CD and DVD ROM drives in the cciss
      driver, and to induce it, you have to disconnect (or damage) a
      cable, so it is not a very likely scenario (which would explain
      why the bug has gone undetected for the last 10 years.)

        too.

        off, on and then off (and stay off).  The fix is on the safer side.

      workqueue: always clear WORKER_REBIND in busy_worker_rebind_fn() · 960bd11b
      Lai Jiangshan 提交于
      busy_worker_rebind_fn() didn't clear WORKER_REBIND if rebinding failed
      (CPU is down again).  This used to be okay because the flag wasn't
      used for anything else.
      
      However, after 25511a47 "workqueue: reimplement CPU online rebinding
      to handle idle workers", WORKER_REBIND is also used to command idle
      workers to rebind.  If not cleared, the worker may confuse the next
      CPU_UP cycle by having REBIND spuriously set or oops / get stuck by
      prematurely calling idle_worker_rebind().

      mm/page_alloc: fix the page address of higher page's buddy calculation · 0ba8f2d5
      Li Haifeng 提交于
      The heuristic method for buddy has been introduced since commit
      43506fad ("mm/page_alloc.c: simplify calculation of combined index
      of adjacent buddy lists").  But the page address of higher page's buddy
      was wrongly calculated, which will lead page_is_buddy to fail for ever.
      IOW, the heuristic method would be disabled with the wrong page address
      of higher page's buddy.
      
      Calculating the page address of higher page's buddy should be based
      higher_page with the offset between index of higher page and index of
      higher page's buddy.

      drivers/rtc/rtc-twl.c: ensure all interrupts are disabled during probe · 8dcebaa9
      Kevin Hilman 提交于
      On some platforms, bootloaders are known to do some interesting RTC
      programming.  Without going into the obscurities as to why this may be
      the case, suffice it to say the the driver should not make any
      assumptions about the state of the RTC when the driver loads.  In
      particular, the driver probe should be sure that all interrupts are
      disabled until otherwise programmed.
      
      This was discovered when finding bursty I2C traffic every second on
      Overo platforms.  This I2C overhead was keeping the SoC from hitting
      deep power states.  The cause was found to be the RTC firing every
      second on the I2C-connected TWL PMIC.
      
      Special thanks to Felipe Balbi for suggesting to look for a rogue driver
      as the source of the I2C traffic rather than the I2C driver itself.
      
      Special thanks to Steve Sakoman for helping track down the source of the
      continuous RTC interrups on the Overo boards.

      compiler.h: add __visible · 9a858dc7
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      gcc 4.6+ has support for a externally_visible attribute that prevents the
      optimizer from optimizing unused symbols away.  Add a __visible macro to
      use it with that compiler version or later.
      
      This is used (at least) by the "Link Time Optimization" patchset.

      pid-namespace: limit value of ns_last_pid to (0, max_pid) · 579035dc
      Andrew Vagin 提交于
      The kernel doesn't check the pid for negative values, so if you try to
      write -2 to /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid, you will get a kernel panic.
      
      The crash happens because the next pid is -1, and alloc_pidmap() will
      try to access to a nonexistent pidmap.
      
        map = &pid_ns->pidmap[pid/BITS_PER_PAGE];

      include/net/sock.h: squelch compiler warning in sk_rmem_schedule() · 35c448a8

        linux/nfs-2.6/include/net/sock.h:1339:13: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
      
      is seen with gcc (GCC) 4.6.3 20120306 (Red Hat 4.6.3-2) using the
      -Wextra option.
      
      Commit c76562b6 ("netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock")
      accidentally replaced the "size" parameter of sk_rmem_schedule() with an
      unsigned int.  This changes the semantics of the comparison in the
      return statement.
      
      In sk_wmem_schedule we have syntactically the same comparison, but
      "size" is a signed integer.  In addition, __sk_mem_schedule() takes a
      signed integer for its "size" parameter, so there is an implicit type
      conversion in sk_rmem_schedule() anyway.
      
      Revert the "size" parameter back to a signed integer so that the
      semantics of the expressions in both sk_[rw]mem_schedule() are exactly
      the same.
