<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 7fb2fd4e25fc1fb10dcb30b5519de257cfeae84c ]

The problem is that if get_user_pages_fast() fails and returns a
negative error code, it gets type promoted to a high positive value and
treated as a success.

<title>sched/headers: Prepare to remove spurious &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; inclusion dependencies</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b69339ba109549beeaf45c45c52ac7025bfcd954</id>
<content type='text'>
In the following patches we are going to remove various headers
from sched.h and other headers that sched.h includes.

To make those patches build cleanly prepare the scene by adding
dependencies to various files that learned to rely on those
to-be-removed dependencies.

These changes all make sense standalone: they add a header for
a data type that a particular .c or .h file is using.

We don't actually need the full rculist.h header in sched.h anymore,
we will be able to include the smaller rcupdate.h header instead.

But first update code that relied on the implicit header inclusion.

Add #include &lt;linux/cred.h&gt; dependencies to all .c files rely on sched.h
doing that for them.

Note that even if the count where we need to add extra headers seems high,
it's still a net win, because &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; is included in over
2,200 files ...

<title>lib/vsprintf.c: remove %Z support</title>

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.

In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement.  Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.

Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt:

  comsume||consume
  comsumer||consumer
  comsuming||consuming

I see some variable names with this pattern, but this commit is only
touching comment blocks to avoid unexpected impact.
