nfs_scan_commit() is called with the inode->i_lock held, but it then calls __mark_inode_dirty() while still holding the lock. This causes a deadlock. Push the inode->i_lock into nfs_scan_commit() so it can protect only the parts of the code it needs to and can be dropped before the call to __mark_inode_dirty() to avoid the deadlock.

Commit 53a7706d ("mlock: do not hold mmap_sem for extended periods of time") changed mlock() to care about the exact number of pages that __get_user_pages() had brought it. Before, it would only care about errors. And that doesn't work, because we also handled one page specially in __mlock_vma_pages_range(), namely the stack guard page. So when that case was handled, the number of pages that the function returned was off by one. In particular, it could be zero, and then the caller would end up not making any progress at all. Rather than try to fix up that off-by-one error for the mlock case specially, this just moves the logic to handle the stack guard page into__get_user_pages() itself, thus making all the counts come out right automatically.

This reverts commit 93f1c20b. It turns out that libmount misparses it because it adds a '-' character in the uuid string, which libmount then incorrectly confuses with the separator string (" - ") at the end of all the optional arguments. Upstream libmount (in the util-linux tree) has been fixed, but until that fix actually percolates up to users, we'd better not expose this change in the kernel. Let's revisit this later (possibly by exposing the UUID without any '-' characters in it, avoiding the user-space bug).

In order for MFD drivers to fetch their cell pointer but also their platform data one, an mfd cell pointer is added to the platform_device structure. That allows all MFD sub devices drivers to be MFD agnostic, unless they really need to access their MFD cell data. Most of them don't, especially the ones for IPs used by both MFD and non MFD SoCs.

In commit 13583b16 ("PCI: refactor io size calculation code") Ram had a thinko in the refactorization of the code: the end result used the variable 'align' for the bus alignment, but the original code used 'min_align'. Since then, another use of that 'align' variable got introduced by commit c8adf9a3 ("PCI: pre-allocate additional resources to devices only after successful allocation of essential resources.") Fix both of those uses to use 'min_align' as they should.

ext4 has taken the stance that, in the absence of a journal, when an fsync/fdatasync of an inode is done, the parent directory should be sync'ed if this inode entry is new. ext4_sync_parent(), which implements this, does indeed sync the dirent pages for parent directories, but it does not sync the directory *inode*. This patch fixes this. Also now return error status from ext4_sync_parent(). I tested this using a power fail test, which panics a machine running a file server getting requests from a client. Without this patch, on about every other test run, the server is missing many, many files that had been synced. With this patch, on > 6 runs, I see zero files being lost.

On the Power platform, the log tail debug checks fire excessively causing the system to panic early in testing. The debug checks are known to be racy, though on x86_64 there is no evidence that they trigger at all. We want to keep the checks active on debug systems to alert us to problems with log space accounting, but we need to reduce the impact of a racy check on testing on the Power platform. As a result, convert the ASSERT conditions to warnings, and allow them to fire only once per filesystem mount. This will prevent false positives from interfering with testing, whilst still providing us with the indication that they may be a problem with log space accounting should that occur.

When we are short on memory, we want to expedite the cleaning of dirty objects. Hence when we run short on memory, we need to kick the AIL flushing into action to clean as many dirty objects as quickly as possible. To implement this, sample the lsn of the log item at the head of the AIL and use that as the push target for the AIL flush. Further, we keep items in the AIL that are dirty that are not tracked any other way, so we can get objects sitting in the AIL that don't get written back until the AIL is pushed. Hence to get the filesystem to the idle state, we might need to push the AIL to flush out any remaining dirty objects sitting in the AIL. This requires the same push mechanism as the reclaim push. This patch also renames xfs_trans_ail_tail() to xfs_ail_min_lsn() to match the new xfs_ail_max_lsn() function introduced in this patch. Similarly for xfs_trans_ail_push -> xfs_ail_push.

Similar to the xfssyncd, the per-filesystem xfsaild threads can be converted to a global workqueue and run periodically by delayed works. This makes sense for the AIL pushing because it uses variable timeouts depending on the work that needs to be done.

Background inode reclaim needs to run more frequently that the XFS syncd work is run as 30s is too long between optimal reclaim runs. Add a new periodic work item to the xfs syncd workqueue to run a fast, non-blocking inode reclaim scan. Background inode reclaim is kicked by the act of marking inodes for reclaim. When an AG is first marked as having reclaimable inodes, the background reclaim work is kicked. It will continue to run periodically untill it detects that there are no more reclaimable inodes. It will be kicked again when the first inode is queued for reclaim. To ensure shrinker based inode reclaim throttles to the inode cleaning and reclaim rate but still reclaim inodes efficiently, make it kick the background inode reclaim so that when we are low on memory we are trying to reclaim inodes as efficiently as possible. This kick shoul d not be necessary, but it will protect against failures to kick the background reclaim when inodes are first dirtied. To provide the rate throttling, make the shrinker pass do synchronous inode reclaim so that it blocks on inodes under IO. This means that the shrinker will reclaim inodes rather than just skipping over them, but it does not adversely affect the rate of reclaim because most dirty inodes are already under IO due to the background reclaim work the shrinker kicked. These two modifications solve one of the two OOM killer invocations Chris Mason reported recently when running a stress testing script. The particular workload trigger for the OOM killer invocation is where there are more threads than CPUs all unlinking files in an extremely memory constrained environment. Unlike other solutions, this one does not have a performance impact on performance when memory is not constrained or the number of concurrent threads operating is <= to the number of CPUs.
