<id>urn:sha1:949f95ff39bf188e594e7ecd8e29b82eb108f5bf</id>
<content type='text'>
When we enable MMP in ext4_multi_mount_protect() during mount or
remount, we end up calling sb_start_write() from write_mmp_block(). This
triggers lockdep warning because freeze protection ranks above s_umount
semaphore we are holding during mount / remount. The problem is harmless
because we are guaranteed the filesystem is not frozen during mount /
remount but still let's fix the warning by not grabbing freeze
protection from ext4_multi_mount_protect().

This will allow more fine-grained errno codes to be returned by the
mount system call.

<id>urn:sha1:a251c17aa558d8e3128a528af5cf8b9d7caae4fd</id>
<content type='text'>
The prandom_u32() function has been a deprecated inline wrapper around
get_random_u32() for several releases now, and compiles down to the
exact same code. Replace the deprecated wrapper with a direct call to
the real function. The same also applies to get_random_int(), which is
just a wrapper around get_random_u32(). This was done as a basic find
and replace.

<title>fs/buffer: Combine two submit_bh() and ll_rw_block() arguments</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1420c4a549bf28ffddbed827d61fb3d4d2132ddb</id>
<content type='text'>
Both submit_bh() and ll_rw_block() accept a request operation type and
request flags as their first two arguments. Micro-optimize these two
functions by combining these first two arguments into a single argument.
This patch does not change the behavior of any of the modified code.

mmp_bdevname is currently both initialized nested inside the kthread_run
call in ext4_multi_mount_protect and in the kmmpd thread started by it.

Lift the initiaization out of the kthread_run call in
ext4_multi_mount_protect, move the BUILD_BUG_ON next to it and remove
the duplicate assignment inside of kmmpd.

<id>urn:sha1:61bb4a1c417e5b95d9edb4f887f131de32e419cb</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit 618f003199c6 ("ext4: fix memory leak in
ext4_fill_super"), after the file system is remounted read-only, there
is a race where the kmmpd thread can exit, causing sbi-&gt;s_mmp_tsk to
point at freed memory, which the call to ext4_stop_mmpd() can trip
over.

Fix this by only allowing kmmpd() to exit when it is stopped via
ext4_stop_mmpd().
