   - PowerPC has improved support for debugging (both inside the guest

   - ARM/ARM64 support read-only memory (which is necessary to put
     firmware in emulated NOR flash)

   - x86 has the usual emulator fixes and nested virtualization
     improvements (including improved Windows support on Intel and
     Jailhouse hypervisor support on AMD), adaptive PLE which helps
     overcommitting of huge guests.  Also included are some patches that
     make KVM more friendly to memory hot-unplug, and fixes for rare
     caching bugs.

Commit 7bced397 ("net_dma: simple removal") removed the long-dead
net_dma code, but unintentionally broke the build for the qualcomm

have it.

Add the required dmaengine.h include explicitly to fix the breakage.

This patch adds support for volatile writes which keep data pages in memory
until f2fs_evict_inode is called by iput.

For instance, we can use this feature for the sqlite database as follows.
While supporting atomic writes for main database file, we can keep its journal
data temporarily in the page cache by the following sequence.

1. open
 -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_VOLATILE_WRITE);
2. writes
 : keep all the data in the page cache.
3. flush to the database file with atomic writes
  a. ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE);
  b. writes
  c. ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE);
4. close
 -> drop the cached data

Merge ipmi patches from Corey Minyard:
 "These have been in linux-next for a while, ready for 3.18"

* emailed patches from Corey Minyard <minyard@acm.org>:
  ipmi: Clear drvdata when interface is removed
  ipmi: work around gcc-4.9 build warning
  ipmi/of: Don't use unavailable interfaces
  ipmi: Clean up the error handling for channel config errors

This patch fixes a bug on hotmod removing.

After ipmi interface is removed using hotmod, kernel panic occurs when
rmmod impi_si.  For example, try this:

 # echo "remove,"`cat /proc/ipmi/0/params` > \
 /sys/module/ipmi_si/parameters/hotmod
 # rmmod ipmi_si

Then, rmmod fails with the following messages.

list_del in cleanup_one_si() fails because the smi_info is already
removed when hotmod removing.

When ipmi interface is removed by hotmod, smi_info is removed by
cleanup_one_si(), but is is still set in drvdata.  Therefore when rmmod
ipmi_si, ipmi_pnp_remove tries to remove it again and fails.

By this patch, a pointer to smi_info in drvdata is cleared when hotmod
removing so that it will be not accessed when rmmod.

v2:
- Clear drvdata in cleanup_one_si
- Change subject

Building ipmi on arm with gcc-4.9 results in this warning for an
allmodconfig build:

  drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c: In function 'ipmi_thread':
  include/linux/time.h:28:5: warning: 'busy_until.tv_sec' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

    struct timespec busy_until;
                    ^

The warning is bogus and this case can not occur.  Apparently this is a
false positive resulting from gcc getting a little smarter about
tracking assignments but not smart enough.

Marking the ipmi_thread_busy_wait function as inline gives the gcc
optimization logic enough information to figure out for itself that the
case cannot happen, which gets rid of the warning without adding any
fake initialization.

This patch introduces a very limited functionality for atomic write support.
In order to support atomic write, this patch adds two ioctls:
 o F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE
 o F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE

The database engine should be aware of the following sequence.
1. open
 -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_START_ATOMIC_WRITE);
2. writes
  : all the written data will be treated as atomic pages.
3. commit
 -> ioctl(F2FS_IOC_COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE);
  : this flushes all the data blocks to the disk, which will be shown all or
  nothing by f2fs recovery procedure.
4. repeat to #2.

The IO pattens should be:

  ,- START_ATOMIC_WRITE                  ,- COMMIT_ATOMIC_WRITE
 CP | D D D D D D | FSYNC | D D D D | FSYNC ...
