DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST returns a bad result for negative dividends:
DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST(-2, 2) = 0
Most of the time this does not matter. However, in the hardware monitoring
subsystem, DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST is sometimes used on integers which can be
negative (such as temperatures).

Andreas Bombe reported that the added ktime_t overflow checking added to
timespec_valid in commit 4e8b14526ca7 ("time: Improve sanity checking of
timekeeping inputs") was causing problems with X.org because it caused
timeouts larger then KTIME_T to be invalid.
Previously, these large timeouts would be clamped to KTIME_MAX and would
never expire, which is valid.
This patch splits the ktime_t overflow checking into a new
timespec_valid_strict function, and converts the timekeeping codes
internal checking to use this more strict function.

Add a DMA engine driver for the TI EDMA controller. This driver
is implemented as a wrapper around the existing DaVinci private
DMA implementation. This approach allows for incremental conversion
of each peripheral driver to the DMA engine API. The EDMA driver
supports slave transfers but does not yet support cyclic transfers.

This patch adds all the necessary data structure and support
functions to implement TFO server side. It also documents a number
of flags for the sysctl_tcp_fastopen knob, and adds a few Linux
extension MIBs.
In addition, it includes the following:
1. a new TCP_FASTOPEN socket option an application must call to
supply a max backlog allowed in order to enable TFO on its listener.
2. A number of key data structures:
"fastopen_rsk" in tcp_sock - for a big socket to access its
request_sock for retransmission and ack processing purpose. It is
non-NULL iff 3WHS not completed.
"fastopenq" in request_sock_queue - points to a per Fast Open
listener data structure "fastopen_queue" to keep track of qlen (# of
outstanding Fast Open requests) and max_qlen, among other things.
"listener" in tcp_request_sock - to point to the original listener
for book-keeping purpose, i.e., to maintain qlen against max_qlen
as part of defense against IP spoofing attack.
3. various data structure and functions, many in tcp_fastopen.c, to
support server side Fast Open cookie operations, including
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen_key to allow manual rekeying.

This patch removes bus_id from mdio platform data, The reason to remove
bus_id is, stmmac mdio bus_id is always same as stmmac bus-id, so there
is no point in passing this in different variable.
Also stmmac ethernet driver connects to phy with bus_id passed its
platform data.
So, having single bus-id is much simpler.

This commit removes USB_GADGET_DUALSPEED and USB_GADGET_SUPERSPEED
Kconfig options. Since now kernel allows many UDC drivers to be
compiled, those options may turn to no longer be valid. For
instance, if someone decides to build UDC that supports super
speed and UDC that supports high speed only, the latter will be
"assumed" to support super speed since USB_GADGET_SUPERSPEED will
be selected by the former.
The test of whether CONFIG_USB_GADGET_*SPEED was defined was just
an optimisation which removed otherwise dead code (ie. if UDC is
not dual speed, there is no need to handle cases that can happen
if speed is high). This commit removes those checks.

Currently, regmap will write 1 to mask_base to mask
an interrupt and write 0 to unmask it.
But some chips do not have an interrupt mask register,
and only have interrupt enable register.
Then we should write 0 to disable interrupt and 1 to enable.
So add an mask_invert flag to handle this.
If it is not set, behavior is same as previous.
If set it to 1, the mask value will be inverted
before written to mask_base

The IPv6 conntrack fragmentation currently has a couple of shortcomings.
Fragmentes are collected in PREROUTING/OUTPUT, are defragmented, the
defragmented packet is then passed to conntrack, the resulting conntrack
information is attached to each original fragment and the fragments then
continue their way through the stack.
Helper invocation occurs in the POSTROUTING hook, at which point only
the original fragments are available. The result of this is that
fragmented packets are never passed to helpers.
This patch improves the situation in the following way:
- If a reassembled packet belongs to a connection that has a helper
assigned, the reassembled packet is passed through the stack instead
of the original fragments.
- During defragmentation, the largest received fragment size is stored.
On output, the packet is refragmented if required. If the largest
received fragment size exceeds the outgoing MTU, a "packet too big"
message is generated, thus behaving as if the original fragments
were passed through the stack from an outside point of view.
- The ipv6_helper() hook function can't receive fragments anymore for
connections using a helper, so it is switched to use ipv6_skip_exthdr()
instead of the netfilter specific nf_ct_ipv6_skip_exthdr() and the
reassembled packets are passed to connection tracking helpers.
The result of this is that we can properly track fragmented packets, but
still generate ICMPv6 Packet too big messages if we would have before.
This patch is also required as a precondition for IPv6 NAT, where NAT
helpers might enlarge packets up to a point that they require
fragmentation. In that case we can't generate Packet too big messages
since the proper MTU can't be calculated in all cases (f.i. when
changing textual representation of a variable amount of addresses),
so the packet is transparently fragmented iff the original packet or
fragments would have fit the outgoing MTU.

Add the new MMF_HAS_UPROBES flag. It is set by install_breakpoint()
and it is copied by dup_mmap(), uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() checks
it to avoid the slow path if the task was never probed. Perhaps it
makes sense to check it in valid_vma(is_register => false) as well.
This needs the new dup_mmap()->uprobe_dup_mmap() hook. We can't use
uprobe_reset_state() or put MMF_HAS_UPROBES into MMF_INIT_MASK, we
need oldmm->mmap_sem to avoid the race with uprobe_register() or
mmap() from another thread.
Currently we never clear this bit, it can be false-positive after
uprobe_unregister() or uprobe_munmap() or if dup_mmap() hits the
probed VM_DONTCOPY vma. But this is fine correctness-wise and has
no effect unless the task hits the non-uprobe breakpoint.

uprobes_state->count is only needed to avoid the slow path in
uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier(). It is also checked in uprobe_munmap()
but ironically its only goal to decrement this counter. However,
it is very broken. Just some examples:
- uprobe_mmap() can race with uprobe_unregister() and wrongly
increment the counter if it hits the non-uprobe "int3". Note
that install_breakpoint() checks ->consumers first and returns
-EEXIST if it is NULL.
"atomic_sub() if error" in uprobe_mmap() looks obviously wrong
too.
- uprobe_munmap() can race with uprobe_register() and wrongly
decrement the counter by the same reason.
- Suppose an appication tries to increase the mmapped area via
sys_mremap(). vma_adjust() does uprobe_munmap(whole_vma) first,
this can nullify the counter temporarily and race with another
thread which can hit the bp, the application will be killed by
SIGTRAP.
- Suppose an application mmaps 2 consecutive areas in the same file
and one (or both) of these areas has uprobes. In the likely case
mmap_region()->vma_merge() suceeds. Like above, this leads to
uprobe_munmap/uprobe_mmap from vma_merge()->vma_adjust() but then
mmap_region() does another uprobe_mmap(resulting_vma) and doubles
the counter.
This patch only removes this counter and fixes the compile errors,
then we will try to cleanup the changed code and add something else
instead.

The build error was caused by that builtin functions are calling

commit 4d8b81abc4 ("KVM: introduce readonly memslot").
The patch fixes the build error by moving function __gfn_to_hva_memslot()
from kvm_main.c to kvm_host.h and making that "inline" so that the
builtin function (kvmppc_h_enter) can use that.

Davinci McASP header & driver are shared by few OMAP platforms (like
TI81xx, AM335x). Splitting asp header into Davinci platform specific
header and Audio specific header helps to share them across platforms.
Audio specific defines is moved to to common
<linux/platform_data/davinci_asp.h> so that the header can be
accessed by all related platforms.
While here, correct the header usage (remove multiple header
re-definitions and unused headers) and remove platform names from

Most devices from the Analog Devices Sigma Delta family use a similar scheme for
communication with the device. This includes register access, as well as trigger
handling. But each device sub-family has different features and different
register layouts (some even have no registers at all) and thus it is impractical
to try to support all of the devices by the same driver. This patch adds a
common base library for Sigma Delta converter devices. It will be used by
individual drivers.
This code is mostly based on the three existing Sigma Delta drivers the AD7192,
AD7780 and AD7793, but has been improved for more robustness and flexibility.

This converts the ARM RealView machine over to using the common
clock. The approach is similar to the one used for the Integrator,
and we're reusing the ICST wrapper code.
We have to put the clock intialization in the timer init function
for the clocks to be available when initializing the timer,
keeping them in early_init() is too early for the common clk.
Since we now have to go down and compile drivers/clk/versatile
a CONFIG_COMMON_CLK_VERSATILE symbol has been added so the proper
code gets compiled into the kernel for either machine. A leftover
CLK_VERSATILE in the Integrator Kconfig was fixed up to use
the new symbol as well.
Tested on ARM RealView PB1176.
