Pull RCU updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The changes in this cycle were:
- Adding transitivity uniformly to rcu_node structure ->lock
acquisitions. (This is implemented by the first two commits on top
of v4.4-rc2 due to the pervasive nature of this change.)
- Documentation updates, including RCU requirements.
- Expedited grace-period changes.
- Miscellaneous fixes.
- Linked-list fixes, courtesy of KTSAN.
- Torture-test updates.
- Late-breaking fix to sysrq-generated crash.
One thing I should note is that these pieces of documentation are
fairly large files:
.../RCU/Design/Requirements/Requirements.html | 2897 ++++++++++++++++++++
.../RCU/Design/Requirements/Requirements.htmlx | 2741 ++++++++++++++++++
and are written in HTML, not the usual .txt style. I hope they are
fine"
Paul McKenney explains the html docs:
"For whatever it is worth, the reason for this unconventional choice
was that attempts to do the diagrams in ASCII art failed miserably.
And attempts to do ASCII art for the upcoming documentation of the
data structures failed even more miserably"

Commit 1f71e8c96fc654724723ce987e0a8b2aeb81746d ("drivers: net: cpsw: Add
support for fixed-link PHY") did not parse the "phy-mode" property in
the case of a fixed-link PHY, leaving slave_data->phy_if with its default
of PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA(0). This later gets passed to phy_connect() in
cpsw_slave_open(), and eventually to cpsw_phy_sel() where it hits a default
case that configures the MAC for MII mode.
The user visible symptom is that while kernel log messages seem to indicate
that the interface is set up, there is no network communication. Eventually
a watchdog error occurs:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0 (cpsw): transmit queue 0 timed out

Pull MTD fixes from Brian Norris:
"I was holding out on this pull request for a bit, since there are a
few other small issues being discussed that look like 4.4-rc
regressions. Hopefully I can get those stabilized soon, but these are
ready at any rate:
- A little bit of a last-minute change for the device tree "fixed
partition" binding. This is needed because we might want to reuse
the 'partitions' subnode for other sorts of partitioning
descriptions -- e.g., for describing which on-flash partition
format(s) might be used on the system.
- Also tone down a warning message, since it is probably going to
show up on a lot of systems where it should just be ignored"

new method: ->get_link(); replacement of ->follow_link(). The differences
are:
* inode and dentry are passed separately
* might be called both in RCU and non-RCU mode;
the former is indicated by passing it a NULL dentry.
* when called that way it isn't allowed to block
and should return ERR_PTR(-ECHILD) if it needs to be called
in non-RCU mode.
It's a flagday change - the old method is gone, all in-tree instances
converted. Conversion isn't hard; said that, so far very few instances
do not immediately bail out when called in RCU mode. That'll change
in the next commits.

As noted here [1], there are potentially future conflicts if we try to
use MTD's "partitions" subnode to describe anything besides just the
fixed-in-the-device-tree partitions currently described in this
document. Particularly, there was a proposal to use this node for the
AFS parser too.
It can pose a (small) problem to try to differentiate the following
nodes:
// using binding as currently specified
partitions {
#address-cells = <x>;
#size-cells = <y>;
partition@0 {
...;
};
};
and
// proposed future binding
partitions {
compatible = "arm,arm-flash-structure";
};
It's especially difficult if other uses of this node start having
subnodes.
So, since the "partitions" node is new in v4.4, let's fixup the binding
before release so that it requires a compatible property, so it's much
clearer to distinguish. e.g.:
// proposed
partitions {
compatible = "fixed-partitions";
#address-cells = <x>;
#size-cells = <y>;
partition@0 {
...;
};
};

The rcu_expedited, rcu_normal, and rcu_normal_after_boot kernel boot
parameters are pointless in the case of TINY_RCU because in that case
synchronous grace periods, both expedited and normal, are no-ops.
However, these three symbols contribute several hundred bytes of bloat.
This commit therefore uses CPP directives to avoid compiling this code
in TINY_RCU kernels.

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-12-03
This series contains updates to ixgbe, i40e/i40evf, MAINTAINERS and e100.txt
Alex provides a fix for ixgbe where enabling SR-IOV and then bringing the
interface up was resulting in the PF MAC addresses getting into a bad state.
The workaround for this issue is to bring up the interface first and then
enable SR-IOV as this will trigger the reset in the existing code.
I clean up legacy license stuff in the e100.txt documentation and then
update the maintainers/reviewers list for our drivers.
Jesse fixes an issue with the i40e/i40evf drivers, where if the driver were
to happen to have a mutex held while the i40e_init_adminq() call was called,
the init_adminq might inadvertently call mutex_init on a lock that was held
which is a violation of the calling semantices.

In commit 2ecf810121c7 ("Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: Add

"Q = P" was converted to "ACCESS_ONCE(Q) = P". This should have
been "Q = ACCESS_ONCE(P)". It later became "WRITE_ONCE(Q, P)".
This doesn't match the following text, which is "Q = LOAD P".
Change the statement to be "Q = READ_ONCE(P)".

Because RCU-sched expedited grace periods now use IPIs and interact
with rcu_read_unlock(), it is no longer sufficient to disable preemption
across RCU read-side critical sections that acquire and hold scheduler
locks. It is now necessary to instead disable interrupts. This commit
documents this change.

The RCU requirements do not make it absolutely clear that the
memory-barrier requirements are not intended to replace the fundamental
requirement that all pre-existing RCU readers complete before a grace
period completes. This commit therefore pulls the memory-barrier
requirements into a separate section and explicitly calls out the
relationship between the memory-barrier requirements and the fundamental
requirement.

Expedited grace periods can speed up boot, but are undesirable in
aggressive real-time systems. This commit therefore introduces a
kernel parameter rcupdate.rcu_normal_after_boot that disables
expedited grace periods just before init is spawned.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Although expedited grace periods can be quite useful, and although their
OS jitter has been greatly reduced, they can still pose problems for
extreme real-time workloads. This commit therefore adds a rcu_normal
kernel boot parameter (which can also be manipulated via sysfs)
to suppress expedited grace periods, that is, to treat requests for
expedited grace periods as if they were requests for normal grace periods.
If both rcu_expedited and rcu_normal are specified, rcu_normal wins.
This means that if you are relying on expedited grace periods to speed up
boot, you will want to specify rcu_expedited on the kernel command line,
and then specify rcu_normal via sysfs once boot completes.

Since Armada 38x SoC can support IP checksum for jumbo frames only on
a single port, it means that this feature should be enabled per-port,
rather than for the whole SoC.
This patch enables setting custom TX IP checksum limit by adding new
optional property to the mvneta device tree node. If not used, by
default 1600B is set for "marvell,armada-370-neta" and 9800B for other
strings, which ensures backward compatibility. Binding documentation
is updated accordingly.

devices, where we would flush plug callbacks with preemption
disabled. From me.

bootargs
Currently kernel crash randomly when K2L EVM is booted without
clk_ignore_unused in the bootargs. This workaround is not needed
on other K2 devices such as K2HK and K2E and with this fix, we can
remove the workaround altogether. netcp driver on K2L uses linked
ram on OSR (On chip Static RAM) and requires the clock to this peripheral
enabled for proper functioning. This is the reason for the kernel crash.
So add the clock node to fix this issue.
While at it, remove the workaround documentation as well.
With the fix applied, clk_summary dump shows the clock to OSR enabled.

intel_pstate driver commits due to a regression introduced by one of

- Fix breakage related to the recently introduced ACPI _CCA object
support in the PCI DMA setup code (Suravee Suthikulpanit).
- Fix up the recently introduced ACPI CPPC support to only use the
hardware-reduced version of the PCCT structure as the only
architecture to support it (ARM64) will only use hardware-reduced
ACPI anyway (Ashwin Chaugule).
- Fix a cpufreq mediatek driver build problem (Arnd Bergmann).
- Fix the SMBus transaction handling implementation in the ACPI core
to avoid re-entrant calls to wait_event_timeout() which makes
intermittent boot stalls related to the Smart Battery Subsystem
initialization go away and revert a workaround of another problem
with the same underlying root cause (Chris Bainbridge).
- Fix the generic wakeup interrupts framework to avoid using invalid
IRQ numbers (Dmitry Torokhov).
- Remove a redundant check from the ACPI EC driver (Markus Elfring).
- Modify the intel_pstate driver so it can support more Atom flavors
than just one (Baytrail) and add support for Atom Airmont cores
(which require new freqnency tables) to it (Philippe Longepe).

In order to allow panic actions to be processed, the ipmi watchdog
driver sets a new timeout value on panic. The 255s timeout
was designed to allow kdump and others actions on panic, as in
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0711.3/0258.html
This is counter-intuitive for a end-user who sets watchdog timeout
value to something like 30s and who expects BMC to reset the system
within 30s of a panic.
This commit allows user to configure the timeout on panic.
