      sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner · 7b595756
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
      deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
      so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
      often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
      accessing removed modules.
      
      This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
      this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
      backing module from being unloaded.
      
      For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
      following message.

      fix deadlock in loop.c · 705962cc

      Jeremy Fitzhardinge noted that the recent loop.c cleanups worked, but
      cause lockdep to complain.
      
      Ouch.  OK, the deadlock is real and yes, I'm an idiot.  Speaking of which,
      we probably want to s/lock/pin/ in drivers/base/map.c to avoid such
      brainos again.  And yes, this stuff needs clear documentation.  Will try
      to put one together once I get some sleep...

      fs: convert core functions to zero_user_page · 01f2705d
      Nate Diller 提交于
      It's very common for file systems to need to zero part or all of a page,
      the simplist way is just to use kmap_atomic() and memset().  There's
      actually a library function in include/linux/highmem.h that does exactly
      that, but it's confusingly named memclear_highpage_flush(), which is
      descriptive of *how* it does the work rather than what the *purpose* is.
      So this patchset renames the function to zero_user_page(), and calls it
      from the various places that currently open code it.
      
      This first patch introduces the new function call, and converts all the
      core kernel callsites, both the open-coded ones and the old
      memclear_highpage_flush() ones.  Following this patch is a series of
      conversions for each file system individually, per AKPM, and finally a
      patch deprecating the old call.  The diffstat below shows the entire
      patchset.
