Pull VFIO updates from Alex Williamson:
- VFIO updates for v4.10 primarily include a new Mediated Device
interface, which essentially allows software defined devices to be
exposed to users through VFIO. The host vendor driver providing this
virtual device polices, or mediates user access to the device.
These devices often incorporate portions of real devices, for
instance the primary initial users of this interface expose vGPUs
which allow the user to map mediated devices, or mdevs, to a portion
of a physical GPU. QEMU composes these mdevs into PCI representations
using the existing VFIO user API. This enables both Intel KVM-GT
support, which is also expected to arrive into Linux mainline during
the v4.10 merge window, as well as NVIDIA vGPU, and also Channel I/O
devices (aka CCW devices) for s390 virtualization support. (Kirti
Wankhede, Neo Jia)

- Fixes to VFIO capability chain handling (Eric Auger)
- Error handling fixes for fallout from mdev (Christophe JAILLET)

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
"This is a fairly quiet release. We don't have any patches to the core
framework. The only patch that can even be considered "core" adds
another clk_get() variant. The rest of the changes are in drivers for
various SoCs, and we have a few bits for ARM shmobile architecture
code (dts and mach) due to the dependency we're breaking between
shmobile architecture code and its clk driver. Those shmobile bits
have also been pulled into arm-soc tree. Here's the summary:

Pull remoteproc updates from Bjorn Andersson:
- introduce remoteproc "subdevice" support, which allows remoteproc
driver to associate devices to the "running" state of the remoteproc,
allowing devices to be probed and removed as the remote processor is
booted, shut down or recovering from a crash.
- handling of virtio device resources was improved, vring memory is now
allocated as part of other memory allocation. This ensures that all
vrings for all virtio devices are allocated before we boot the remote
processor.
- the debugfs mechanism for starting and stopping remoteproc instances
was replaced with a sysfs interface, also providing a mechanism for
specifying firmware to use by the instance. This allows user space to
load and boot use case specific firmware on remote processors.
- new drivers for the ST Slimcore and Qualcomm Hexagon DSP as well as
removal of the unused StE modem loader.
- finally support for crash recovery in the Qualcomm Wirelss subsystem
(used for WiFi/BT/FM on a number of platforms) and a number of bug
fixes and cleanups

Pull GPIO updates from Luinus Walleij:
"Bulk GPIO changes for the v4.10 kernel cycle:
Core changes:
- Simplify threaded interrupt handling: instead of passing numbed
parameters to gpiochip_irqchip_add_chained() we create a new call:
gpiochip_irqchip_add_nested() so the two types are clearly
semantically different. Also make sure that all nested chips call
gpiochip_set_nested_irqchip() which is necessary for IRQ resend to
work properly if it happens.
- Return error on seek operations for the chardev.
- Clamp values set as part of gpio[d]_direction_output() so that
anything != 0 will be send down to the driver as "1" not the value
passed in.
- ACPI can now support naming of GPIO lines, hogs and holes in the
GPIO lists.

- The SX150x driver was deemed unfit for the GPIO subsystem and was
moved over to a combined GPIO+pinctrl driver in the pinctrl
subsystem.

Add a configuration option to set the default console loglevel. This
is, as before, still possible to override at runtime through bootargs
(loglevel=<x>), sysrq and /proc/printk.
There are cases where adding additional arguments on the commandline is
impractical, and changing the default for the kernel when being built
makes more sense. Provide such a method here, for those who choose to
do so.
Also, while touching this code, clarify the difference between
MESSAGE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT and CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL_DEFAULT.

Commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing
continuation lines") allows to define more message headers for a single
message. The motivation is that continuous lines might get mixed.
Therefore it make sense to define the right log level for every piece of
a cont line.
The current btrfs_printk() macros do not support continuous lines at the
moment. But better be prepared for a custom messages and avoid
potential "lvl" buffer overflow.
This patch iterates over the entire message header. It is interested
only into the message level like the original code.
This patch also introduces PRINTK_MAX_SINGLE_HEADER_LEN. Three bytes
are enough for the message level header at the moment. But it used to
be three, see the commit 04d2c8c83d0e ("printk: convert the format for
KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern").
Also I fixed the default ratelimit level. It looked very strange when it
was different from the default log level.

anon_vma_prepare() is mostly a large "if (unlikely(...))" block, as the
expected common case is that an anon_vma already exists. We could turn
the condition around and return 0, but it also makes sense to do it
inline and avoid a call for the common case.
Bloat-o-meter naturally shows that inlining the check has some code size
costs:
add/remove: 1/1 grow/shrink: 4/0 up/down: 475/-373 (102)
function old new delta
__anon_vma_prepare - 359 +359

hugetlb_fault 2123 2145 +22
wp_page_copy 1469 1487 +18
anon_vma_prepare 373 - -373
Checking the asm however confirms that the hot paths now avoid a call,
which is moved away.

Currently, we track the shadow entries in the page cache in the upper
bits of the radix_tree_node->count, behind the back of the radix tree
implementation. Because the radix tree code has no awareness of them,
we rely on random subtleties throughout the implementation (such as the
node->count != 1 check in the shrinking code, which is meant to exclude
multi-entry nodes but also happens to skip nodes with only one shadow
entry, as that's accounted in the upper bits). This is error prone and
has, in fact, caused the bug fixed in d3798ae8c6f3 ("mm: filemap: don't
plant shadow entries without radix tree node").
To remove these subtleties, this patch moves shadow entry tracking from
the upper bits of node->count to the existing counter for exceptional
entries. node->count goes back to being a simple counter of valid
entries in the tree node and can be shrunk to a single byte.
This vastly simplifies the page cache code. All accounting happens
natively inside the radix tree implementation, and maintaining the LRU
linkage of shadow nodes is consolidated into a single function in the
workingset code that is called for leaf nodes affected by a change in
the page cache tree.
This also removes the last user of the __radix_delete_node() return
value. Eliminate it.

Support handing __radix_tree_replace() a callback that gets invoked for
all leaf nodes that change or get freed as a result of the slot
replacement, to assist users tracking nodes with node->private_list.
This prepares for putting page cache shadow entries into the radix tree

The bug in khugepaged fixed earlier in this series shows that radix tree
slot replacement is fragile; and it will become more so when not only
NULL<->!NULL transitions need to be caught but transitions from and to
exceptional entries as well. We need checks.
Re-implement radix_tree_replace_slot() on top of the sanity-checked
__radix_tree_replace(). This requires existing callers to also pass the
radix tree root, but it'll warn us when somebody replaces slots with
contents that need proper accounting (transitions between NULL entries,
real entries, exceptional entries) and where a replacement through the
slot pointer would corrupt the radix tree node counts.

The way the page cache is sneaking shadow entries of evicted pages into
the radix tree past the node entry accounting and tracking them manually
in the upper bits of node->count is fraught with problems.
These shadow entries are marked in the tree as exceptional entries,
which are a native concept to the radix tree. Maintain an explicit
counter of exceptional entries in the radix tree node. Subsequent
patches will switch shadow entry tracking over to that counter.
DAX and shmem are the other users of exceptional entries. Since slot
replacements that change the entry type from regular to exceptional must
now be accounted, introduce a __radix_tree_replace() function that does
replacement and accounting, and switch DAX and shmem over.
The increase in radix tree node size is temporary. A followup patch
switches the shadow tracking to this new scheme and we'll no longer need
the upper bits in node->count and shrink that back to one byte.

We ran into a funky issue, where someone doing 256K buffered reads saw
128K requests at the device level. Turns out it is read-ahead capping
the request size, since we use 128K as the default setting. This
doesn't make a lot of sense - if someone is issuing 256K reads, they
should see 256K reads, regardless of the read-ahead setting, if the
underlying device can support a 256K read in a single command.
This patch introduces a bdi hint, io_pages. This is the soft max IO
size for the lower level, I've hooked it up to the bdev settings here.
Read-ahead is modified to issue the maximum of the user request size,
and the read-ahead max size, but capped to the max request size on the
device side. The latter is done to avoid reading ahead too much, if the
application asks for a huge read. With this patch, the kernel behaves
like the application expects.

When movable nodes are enabled, any node containing only hotpluggable
memory is made movable at boot time.
On x86, hotpluggable memory is discovered by parsing the ACPI SRAT,
making corresponding calls to memblock_mark_hotplug().
If we introduce a dt property to describe memory as hotpluggable,
configs supporting early fdt may then also do this marking and use
movable nodes.

While doing MADV_DONTNEED on a large area of thp memory, I noticed we
encountered many unlikely() branches in profiles for each backing

which rechecked the conditions that were already validated, but as part
of an unlikely() branch.
Avoid the unlikely() branch when in a context where pmd is known to be
good for __split_huge_pmd() directly.

This limitation came with the reason to remove "another way for
malicious code to obscure a compromised program and masquerade as a
benign process" by allowing "security-concious program can use this
prctl once during its early initialization to ensure the prctl cannot
later be abused for this purpose":
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=133160684517468&w=2
This explanation doesn't look sufficient. The only thing "exe" link is
indicating is the file, used to execve, which is basically nothing and
not reliable immediately after process has returned from execve system
call.
Moreover, to use this feture, all the mappings to previous exe file have
to be unmapped and all the new exe file permissions must be satisfied.
Which means, that changing exe link is very similar to calling execve on
the binary.
The need to remove this limitations comes from migration of NFS mount
point, which is not accessible during restore and replaced by other file
system. Because of this exe link has to be changed twice.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The tree got pretty big in this development cycle, but the net effect
is pretty good:
115 files changed, 673 insertions(+), 1522 deletions(-)
The main changes were:
- Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex
primitives. (Peter Zijlstra)
- Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
Christian Borntraeger)
- Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)
- Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)
- Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)
- Improve the rtmutex code a bit, in light of recent long lived
bugs/races. (Thomas Gleixner)

If udp_recvmsg() constantly releases sk_rmem_alloc
for every read packet, it gives opportunity for
producers to immediately grab spinlocks and desperatly
try adding another packet, causing false sharing.
We can add a simple heuristic to give the signal
by batches of ~25 % of the queue capacity.
This patch considerably increases performance under
flood by about 50 %, since the thread draining the queue
is no longer slowed by false sharing.

In UDP RX handler, we currently clear skb->dev before skb
is added to receive queue, because device pointer is no longer
available once we exit from RCU section.
Since this first cache line is always hot, lets reuse this space
to store skb->truesize and thus avoid a cache line miss at
udp_recvmsg()/udp_skb_destructor time while receive queue
spinlock is held.
