Fix AllRegistrants reservations in register_and_move() function where
the code didn't handle all of the registered devices as reservation
holders, resulting in the wrong warning message being displayed.

At the same time, introduce a helper function named
'is_reservation_holder()' that properly checks if a device is a
reservation holder, taking into account the reservation type. This
function cleans up the code and improves readability.

Now that iscsi_conn allocates new [rx,tx] threads using kthread.h
primitives on the fly, and kthread_stop() is called directly during
connection shutdown, it's time to go ahead and drop iscsi_target_tq.c
legacy code.

The use of multiple struct completion in iscsi_activate_thread_set()
has been proven to cause issues during repeated iser login/logout.

This patch converts iscsi-target code to use modern kthread.h API
callers for creating RX/TX threads for each new iscsi_conn descriptor,
and releasing associated RX/TX threads during connection shutdown.

This is done using iscsit_start_kthreads() -> kthread_run() to start
new kthreads from within iscsi_post_login_handler(), and invoking
kthread_stop() from existing iscsit_close_connection() code.

Also, convert iscsit_logout_post_handler_closesession() code to use
cmpxchg when determing when iscsit_cause_connection_reinstatement()
needs to sleep waiting for completion.

.. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to
the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad.

Big surprise.

But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38%
margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who
can't even follow the most basic directions?

In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%,
but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.

Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so
it could be considered noise.

But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.

I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around
sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from
two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and
from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for
progress in memory allocator.

Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check
sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here:
super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write.
Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb
is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers
are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi
writeback list under wb->list_lock.

This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount:
generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write.
New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore,
callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when
they're done.

Fix up the following scripted S_ISDIR/S_ISREG/S_ISLNK conversions (or lack

 (1) Cachefiles mostly wants to use d_can_lookup() rather than d_is_dir() as
     it doesn't want to deal with automounts in its cache.

 (2) Coccinelle didn't find S_IS* expressions in ASSERT() statements in

Convert the following where appropriate:

 (1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).

 (2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).

 (3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry).  This is actually more
     complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
     d_can_lookup() instead.  The difference is whether the directory in
     question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
     a ->d_automount op.

In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).

Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer.  In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.

However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.

There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE.  Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.

The following perl+coccinelle script was used:

use strict;

my @callers;

Introduce some function for getting the inode (and also the dentry) in an
environment where layered/unioned filesystems are in operation.

The problem is that we have places where we need *both* the union dentry and
the lower source or workspace inode or dentry available, but we can only have
a handle on one of them.  Therefore we need to derive the handle to the other
from that.

The idea is to introduce an extra field in struct dentry that allows the union
dentry to refer to and pin the lower dentry.

  First, one commit that broke the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem)

  fixes for that driver.  Another fix cleans up two recently added ACPI
  EC messages that look odd and the printk level of a noisy debug
  message in the core ACPI resources handling code is reduced.

  In addition to that we have two stable-candidate fixes for the s3c
  cpufreq driver, two cpuidle powernv driver updates related to Device
  Trees and a PNP subsystem cleanup that will allow us to get rid of
  some old ugliness going forward.  Also there is a new blacklist entry
  for the ACPI backlight code.

  Specifics:

   - Revert a recent ACPI LPSS driver commit that prevented the touchpad
     driver from loading on Dell XPS13 (Jarkko Nikula).

   - Make the ACPI LPSS driver disable the I2C controllers and deassert
     SPI host controllers resets at startup on Intel BayTrail and
     Braswell SoCs in case they have been left in wrong states by the
     platform firmware which then may casuse fatal controller driver
     failures during resume from hibernation (Mika Westerberg).

   - Make two recently added ACPI EC messages look better (Scot Doyle).

   - Reduce the printk level of a recently added debug message related
     to ACPI resources that may become noisy in some cases (Rafael J
     Wysocki).

   - Add a new ACPI backlight blacklist entry for Samsung Series 9
     (900X3C/900X3D/900X3E/900X4C/900X4D) laptops where the native
     backlight interface doesn't work while the ACPI based one does
     (Jens Reyer).

   - Make the PNP sybsystem's core code use __request_region() followed
     by __release_region() instead of __check_region() which then will
     allow us to get rid of the latter as it has no more users (Jakub
     Sitnicki).

   - Fix a build breakage and an issue with two __init functions that
     may be called after initialization in the s3c cpufreq driver (Arnd
     Bergmann).

   - Make the powernv cpuidle driver read target_residency values for
     idle states from a Device Tree (as we have the suitable DT bindings
     for that now) and improve the parsing of the powermgmt DT node in
     that driver (Preeti U Murthy)"
