Both functions were introduced to let gpio drivers request their own
gpio pins. Without exporting the functions, this can however only be
used by gpio drivers built into the kernel.
Secondary impact is that the functions can not currently be used by
platform initialization code associated with the gpio-pca953x driver.
This code permits auto-export of gpio pins through platform data, but
if this functionality is used, the module can no longer be unloaded due
to the problem solved with the introduction of gpiochip_request_own_desc
and gpiochip_free_own_desc.
Export both function so they can be used from modules and from
platform initialization code.

Pull libata regression fix from Tejun Heo:
"The last libata/for-3.16-fixes pull contained a regression introduced
by 1871ee134b73 ("libata: support the ata host which implements a
queue depth less than 32") which in turn was a fix for a regression
introduced earlier while changing queue tag order to accomodate hard
drives which perform poorly if tags are not allocated in circular
order (ugh...).
The regression happens only for SAS controllers making use of libata
to serve ATA devices. They don't fill an ata_host field which is used
by the new tag allocation function leading to NULL dereference.
This patch adds a new intermediate field ata_host->n_tags which is
initialized for both SAS and !SAS cases to fix the issue"

Introducing DT transactional support.
A DT transaction is a method which allows one to apply changes
in the live tree, in such a way that either the full set of changes
take effect, or the state of the tree can be rolled-back to the
state it was before it was attempted. An applied transaction
can be rolled-back at any time.

Currently, devicetree reconfig notifiers get emitted before the change
is applied to the tree, but that behaviour is problematic if the
receiver wants the determine the new state of the tree. The current
users don't care, but the changeset code to follow will be making
multiple changes at once. Reorder notifiers to get emitted after the
change has been applied to the tree so that callbacks see the new tree
state.
At the same time, fixup the existing callbacks to expect the new order.
There are a few callbacks that compare the old and new values of a
changed property. Put both property pointers into the of_prop_reconfig
structure.
The current notifiers also allow the notifier callback to fail and
cancel the change to the tree, but that feature isn't actually used.
It really isn't valid to ignore a tree modification provided by firmware
anyway, so remove the ability to cancel a change to the tree.

All of the DT modification functions are split into two parts, the first
part manipulates the DT data structure, and the second part updates
sysfs, but the code isn't very consistent about how the second half is
called. They don't all enforce the same rules about when it is valid to
update sysfs, and there isn't any clarity on locking.
The transactional DT modification feature that is coming also needs
access to these functions so that it can perform all the structure
changes together, and then all the sysfs updates as a second stage
instead of doing each one at a time.
Fix up the second have by creating a separate __of_*_sysfs() function
for each of the helpers. The new functions have consistent naming (ie.
of_node_add() becomes __of_attach_node_sysfs()) and all of them now
defer if of_init hasn't been called yet.
Callers of the new functions must hold the of_mutex to ensure there are
no race conditions with of_init(). The mutex ensures that there will
only ever be one writer to the tree at any given time. There can still
be any number of readers and the raw_spin_lock is still used to make
sure access to the data structure is still consistent.
Finally, put the function prototypes into of_private.h so they are
accessible to the transaction code.

I triggered VM_BUG_ON() in vma_address() when I tried to migrate an
anonymous hugepage with mbind() in the kernel v3.16-rc3. This is
because pgoff's calculation in rmap_walk_anon() fails to consider
compound_order() only to have an incorrect value.
This patch introduces page_to_pgoff(), which gets the page's offset in
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE.
Kirill pointed out that page cache tree should natively handle
hugepages, and in order to make hugetlbfs fit it, page->index of
hugetlbfs page should be in PAGE_CACHE_SIZE. This is beyond this patch,
but page_to_pgoff() contains the point to be fixed in a single function.

By caching the ntp_tick_length() when we correct the frequency error,
and then using that cached value to accumulate error, we avoid large
initial errors when the tick length is changed.
This makes convergence happen much faster in the simulator, since the
initial error doesn't have to be slowly whittled away.
This initially seems like an accounting error, but Miroslav pointed out
that ntp_tick_length() can change mid-tick, so when we apply it in the
error accumulation, we are applying any recent change to the entire tick.
This approach chooses to apply changes in the ntp_tick_length() only to
the next tick, which allows us to calculate the freq correction before
using the new tick length, which avoids accummulating error.
Credit to Miroslav for pointing this out and providing the original patch
this functionality has been pulled out from, along with the rational.

The existing timekeeping_adjust logic has always been complicated
to understand. Further, since it was developed prior to NOHZ becoming
common, its not surprising it performs poorly when NOHZ is enabled.
Since Miroslav pointed out the problematic nature of the existing code
in the NOHZ case, I've tried to refactor the code to perform better.
The problem with the previous approach was that it tried to adjust
for the total cumulative error using a scaled dampening factor. This
resulted in large errors to be corrected slowly, while small errors
were corrected quickly. With NOHZ the timekeeping code doesn't know
how far out the next tick will be, so this results in bad
over-correction to small errors, and insufficient correction to large
errors.
Inspired by Miroslav's patch, I've refactored the code to try to
address the correction in two steps.
1) Check the future freq error for the next tick, and if the frequency
error is large, try to make sure we correct it so it doesn't cause
much accumulated error.
2) Then make a small single unit adjustment to correct any cumulative
error that has collected over time.
This method performs fairly well in the simulator Miroslav created.
Major credit to Miroslav for pointing out the issue, providing the
original patch to resolve this, a simulator for testing, as well as
helping debug and resolve issues in my implementation so that it
performed closer to his original implementation.

Tracers want a correlated time between the kernel instrumentation and
user space. We really do not want to export sched_clock() to user
space, so we need to provide something sensible for this.
Using separate data structures with an non blocking sequence count
based update mechanism allows us to do that. The data structure
required for the readout has a sequence counter and two copies of the
timekeeping data.
On the update side:
smp_wmb();
tkf->seq++;
smp_wmb();
update(tkf->base[0], tk);
smp_wmb();
tkf->seq++;
smp_wmb();
update(tkf->base[1], tk);
On the reader side:
do {
seq = tkf->seq;
smp_rmb();
idx = seq & 0x01;
now = now(tkf->base[idx]);
smp_rmb();
} while (seq != tkf->seq)
So if a NMI hits the update of base[0] it will use base[1] which is
still consistent, but this timestamp is not guaranteed to be monotonic
across an update.
The timestamp is calculated by:
now = base_mono + clock_delta * slope
So if the update lowers the slope, readers who are forced to the
not yet updated second array are still using the old steeper slope.
tmono
^
| o n
| o n
| u
| o
|o
|12345678---> reader order
o = old slope
u = update
n = new slope
So reader 6 will observe time going backwards versus reader 5.
While other CPUs are likely to be able observe that, the only way
for a CPU local observation is when an NMI hits in the middle of
the update. Timestamps taken from that NMI context might be ahead
of the following timestamps. Callers need to be aware of that and
deal with it.

For NMI safe access to clock monotonic we use the seqcount LSB as
index of a timekeeper array. The update sequence looks like this:
smp_wmb(); <- prior stores to a[1]
seq++;
smp_wmb(); <- seq increment before update of a[0]
update(a[0]);
smp_wmb(); <- update of a[0]
seq++;
smp_wmb(); <- seq increment before update of a[1]
update(a[1]);
To avoid open coded barriers, provide a helper function.

Access to time requires to touch two cachelines at minimum
1) The timekeeper data structure
2) The clocksource data structure
The access to the clocksource data structure can be avoided as almost
all clocksource implementations ignore the argument to the read
callback, which is a pointer to the clocksource.
But the core needs to touch it to access the members @read and @mask.
So we are better off by copying the @read function pointer and the
@mask from the clocksource to the core data structure itself.
For the most used ktime_get() access all required data including the
@read and @mask copies fits together with the sequence counter into a
single 64 byte cacheline.
For the other time access functions we touch in the current code three
cache lines in the worst case. But with the clocksource data copies we
can reduce that to two adjacent cachelines, which is more efficient
than disjunct cache lines.

The RDMA credit limit controls how many concurrent RPCs are allowed

An NFS/RDMA client and server exchange their credit limits in the

allow 32 credits. The Linux server allows only 16, which limits its
performance.
Set the server's default credit limit to 32, like the other well-

The non-scalar ktime_t implementation is basically a timespec
which has to be changed to support dates past 2038 on 32bit
systems.
This patch removes the non-scalar ktime_t implementation, forcing
the scalar s64 nanosecond version on all architectures.
This may have additional performance overhead on some 32bit
systems when converting between ktime_t and timespec structures,
however the majority of 32bit systems (arm and i386) were already
using scalar ktime_t, so no performance regressions will be seen
on those platforms.
On affected platforms, I'm open to finding optimizations, including
avoiding converting to timespecs where possible.

commit 11c32d7b6274cb0f ("video: move Versatile CLCD helpers")
moved files out of the plat-versatile directory but in the process
got a few of the dependencies wrong:
- If CONFIG_FB is not set, the file no longer gets built, resulting
in a link error
- If CONFIG_FB or CONFIG_FB_ARMCLCD are disabled, we also get a
Kconfig warning for incorrect dependencies due to the symbol
being 'select'ed from the platform Kconfig.
- When the file is not built, we also get a link error for missing
symbols.
This patch should fix all three, by removing the 'select' statements,
changing the Kconfig description of the symbol to be enabled in
exactly the right configurations, and adding inline stub functions
for the case when the framebuffer driver is disabled.
