Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford:
"One ocrdma fix:
- The new CQ API support was added to ocrdma, but they got the arming
logic wrong, so without this, transfers eventually fail when they
fail to arm the interrupt properly under load
Two related fixes for mlx4:
- When we added the 64bit extended counters support to the core IB
code, they forgot to update the RoCE side of the mlx4 driver (the
IB side they properly updated).
I debated whether or not to include these patches as they could be
considered feature enablement patches, but the existing code will
blindy copy the 32bit counters, whether any counters were requested
at all (a bug).
These two patches make it (a) check to see that counters were
requested and (b) copy the right counters (the 64bit support is
new, the 32bit is not). For that reason I went ahead and took
them"

In __request_region, if a conflict with a BUSY and MUXED resource is
detected, then the caller goes to sleep and waits for the resource to be
released. A pointer on the conflicting resource is kept. At wake-up
this pointer is used as a parent to retry to request the region.
A first problem is that this pointer might well be invalid (if for
example the conflicting resource have already been freed). Another
problem is that the next call to __request_region() fails to detect a
remaining conflict. The previously conflicting resource is passed as a
parameter and __request_region() will look for a conflict among the
children of this resource and not at the resource itself. It is likely
to succeed anyway, even if there is still a conflict.
Instead, the parent of the conflicting resource should be passed to
__request_region().
As a fix, this patch doesn't update the parent resource pointer in the
case we have to wait for a muxed region right after.

Thermal hook gpio_fan_get_cur_state is only interested in knowing
the current speed index that was setup in the system, this is
already available as part of fan_data->speed_index which is always
set by set_fan_speed. Using get_fan_speed_index is useful when we
have no idea about the fan speed configuration (for example during
fan_ctrl_init).
When thermal framework invokes
gpio_fan_get_cur_state=>get_fan_speed_index via gpio_fan_get_cur_state
especially in a polled configuration for thermal governor, we
basically hog the i2c interface to the extent that other functions
fail to get any traffic out :(.
Instead, just provide the last state set in the driver - since the gpio
fan driver is responsible for the fan state immaterial of override, the
fan_data->speed_index should accurately reflect the state.

"Here are some more arm64 fixes for 4.5. This has mostly come from
Yang Shi, who saw some issues under -rt that also affect mainline.
The rest of it is pretty small, but still worth having.
We've got an old issue outstanding with valid_user_regs which will

next week.
Apart from that, pretty quiet here (and still no sign of the THP issue

Summary:
- Allow EFI stub to use strnlen(), which is required by recent libfdt
- Avoid smp_processor_id() in preempt context during unwinding
- Avoid false Kasan warnings during unwinding

Although we don't expect to take alignment faults on access to normal
memory, misbehaving (i.e. buggy) user code can pass MMIO pointers into
system calls, leading to things like get_user accessing device memory.
Rather than OOPS the kernel, allow any exception fixups to run and
return something like -EFAULT back to userspace. This makes the
behaviour more consistent with userspace, even though applications with
access to device mappings can easily cause other issues if they try
hard enough.

Competing overwrite DIO in dioread_nolock mode will just overwrite
pointer to io_end in the inode. This may result in data corruption or
extent conversion happening from IO completion interrupt because we
don't properly set buffer_defer_completion() when unlocked DIO races
with locked DIO to unwritten extent.
Since unlocked DIO doesn't need io_end for anything, just avoid
allocating it and corrupting pointer from inode for locked DIO.
A cleaner fix would be to avoid these games with io_end pointer from the
inode but that requires more intrusive changes so we leave that for
later.

ext4 can update bh->b_state non-atomically in _ext4_get_block() and
ext4_da_get_block_prep(). Usually this is fine since bh is just a
temporary storage for mapping information on stack but in some cases it
can be fully living bh attached to a page. In such case non-atomic
update of bh->b_state can race with an atomic update which then gets
lost. Usually when we are mapping bh and thus updating bh->b_state
non-atomically, nobody else touches the bh and so things work out fine
but there is one case to especially worry about: ext4_finish_bio() uses
BH_Uptodate_Lock on the first bh in the page to synchronize handling of
PageWriteback state. So when blocksize < pagesize, we can be atomically
modifying bh->b_state of a buffer that actually isn't under IO and thus
can race e.g. with delalloc trying to map that buffer. The result is
that we can mistakenly set / clear BH_Uptodate_Lock bit resulting in the
corruption of PageWriteback state or missed unlock of BH_Uptodate_Lock.
Fix the problem by always updating bh->b_state bits atomically.

Because we record connector_mask using 1 << drm_connector_index now
the connector_mask should stay the same even when other connectors
are removed. This was not the case with MST, in that case when removing
a connector all other connectors may change their index.
This is fixed by waiting until the first get_connector_state to allocate
connector_state, and force reallocation when state is too small.
As a side effect connector arrays no longer have to be preallocated,
and can be allocated on first use which means a less allocations in
the page flip only path.
Changes since v1:
- Whitespace. (Ville)
- Call ida_remove when destroying the connector. (Ville)
- u32 alloc -> int. (Ville)

remap_file_pages(2) emulation can reach file which represents removed
IPC ID as long as a memory segment is mapped. It breaks expectations of
IPC subsystem.
Test case (rewritten to be more human readable, originally autogenerated
by syzkaller[1]):
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/ipc.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <sys/shm.h>
#define PAGE_SIZE 4096
int main()
{
int id;
void *p;
id = shmget(IPC_PRIVATE, 3 * PAGE_SIZE, 0);
p = shmat(id, NULL, 0);
shmctl(id, IPC_RMID, NULL);
remap_file_pages(p, 3 * PAGE_SIZE, 0, 7, 0);
return 0;
}
The patch changes shm_mmap() and code around shm_lock() to propagate
locking error back to caller of shm_mmap().

The pmem driver calls devm_memremap() to map a persistent memory range.
When the pmem driver is unloaded, this memremap'd range is not released
so the kernel will leak a vma.

Currently incorrect default hugepage pool size is reported by proc
nr_hugepages when number of pages for the default huge page size is
specified twice.
When multiple huge page sizes are supported, /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages
indicates the current number of pre-allocated huge pages of the default
size. Basically /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages displays default_hstate->
max_huge_pages and after boot time pre-allocation, max_huge_pages should
equal the number of pre-allocated pages (nr_hugepages).
Test case:
Note that this is specific to x86 architecture.
Boot the kernel with command line option 'default_hugepagesz=1G
hugepages=X hugepagesz=2M hugepages=Y hugepagesz=1G hugepages=Z'. After
boot, 'cat /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages' and 'sysctl -a | grep hugepages'
returns the value X. However, dmesg output shows that Z huge pages were
pre-allocated.
So, the root cause of the problem here is that the global variable
default_hstate_max_huge_pages is set if a default huge page size is
specified (directly or indirectly) on the command line. After the command
line processing in hugetlb_init, if default_hstate_max_huge_pages is set,
the value is assigned to default_hstae.max_huge_pages. However,
default_hstate.max_huge_pages may have already been set based on the
number of pre-allocated huge pages of default_hstate size.
The solution to this problem is if hstate->max_huge_pages is already set
then it should not set as a result of global max_huge_pages value.
Basically if the value of the variable hugepages is set multiple times on
a command line for a specific supported hugepagesize then proc layer
should consider the last specified value.

Commit 3565fce3a659 ("mm, x86: get_user_pages() for dax mappings") has
moved up the pte_page(pte) in x86's fast gup_pte_range(), for no
discernible reason: put it back where it belongs, after the pte_flags
check and the pfn_valid cross-check.
That may be the cause of the NULL pointer dereference in
gup_pte_range(), seen when vfio called vaddr_get_pfn() when starting a
qemu-kvm based VM.

We don't require a dedicated thread for fsnotify cleanup. Switch it
over to a workqueue job instead that runs on the system_unbound_wq.
In the interest of not thrashing the queued job too often when there are
a lot of marks being removed, we delay the reaper job slightly when
queueing it, to allow several to gather on the list.

This reverts commit c510eff6beba ("fsnotify: destroy marks with
call_srcu instead of dedicated thread").
Eryu reported that he was seeing some OOM kills kick in when running a
testcase that adds and removes inotify marks on a file in a tight loop.
The above commit changed the code to use call_srcu to clean up the
marks. While that does (in principle) work, the srcu callback job is
limited to cleaning up entries in small batches and only once per jiffy.
It's easily possible to overwhelm that machinery with too many call_srcu
callbacks, and Eryu's reproduer did just that.
There's also another potential problem with using call_srcu here. While
you can obviously sleep while holding the srcu_read_lock, the callbacks
run under local_bh_disable, so you can't sleep there.
It's possible when putting the last reference to the fsnotify_mark that
we'll end up putting a chain of references including the fsnotify_group,
uid, and associated keys. While I don't see any obvious ways that that
could occurs, it's probably still best to avoid using call_srcu here
after all.
This patch reverts the above patch. A later patch will take a different
approach to eliminated the dedicated thread here.

Grazvydas Ignotas has reported a regression in remap_file_pages()
emulation.
Testcase:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <assert.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
#define SIZE (4096 * 3)
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
unsigned long *p;
long i;
p = mmap(NULL, SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (p == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
return -1;
}
for (i = 0; i < SIZE / 4096; i++)
p[i * 4096 / sizeof(*p)] = i;
if (remap_file_pages(p, 4096, 0, 1, 0)) {
perror("remap_file_pages");
return -1;
}
if (remap_file_pages(p, 4096 * 2, 0, 1, 0)) {
perror("remap_file_pages");
return -1;
}
assert(p[0] == 1);
munmap(p, SIZE);
return 0;
}
The second remap_file_pages() fails with -EINVAL.
The reason is that remap_file_pages() emulation assumes that the target
vma covers whole area we want to over map. That assumption is broken by
first remap_file_pages() call: it split the area into two vma.
The solution is to check next adjacent vmas, if they map the same file
with the same flags.

A non-atomic PCM stream may take snd_pcm_link_rwsem rw semaphore twice
in the same code path, e.g. one in snd_pcm_action_nonatomic() and
another in snd_pcm_stream_lock(). Usually this is OK, but when a
write lock is issued between these two read locks, the problem
happens: the write lock is blocked due to the first reade lock, and
the second read lock is also blocked by the write lock. This
eventually deadlocks.
The reason is the way rwsem manages waiters; it's queued like FIFO, so
even if the writer itself doesn't take the lock yet, it blocks all the
waiters (including reads) queued after it.
As a workaround, in this patch, we replace the standard down_write()
with an spinning loop. This is far from optimal, but it's good
enough, as the spinning time is supposed to be relatively short for
normal PCM operations, and the code paths requiring the write lock
aren't called so often.

A kernel page fault oops with the callstack below was observed
when a read syscall was made to a pmem device after a huge amount
(>512GB) of vmalloc ranges was allocated by ioremap() on a x86_64

Since v4.1, ioremap() supports large page (pud/pmd) mappings in
x86_64 and PAE. vmalloc_fault() however assumes that the vmalloc
range is limited to pte mappings.
vmalloc faults do not normally happen in ioremap'd ranges since
ioremap() sets up the kernel page tables, which are shared by
user processes. pgd_ctor() sets the kernel's PGD entries to
user's during fork(). When allocation of the vmalloc ranges
crosses a 512GB boundary, ioremap() allocates a new pud table
and updates the kernel PGD entry to point it. If user process's
PGD entry does not have this update yet, a read/write syscall
to the range will cause a vmalloc fault, which hits the Oops
above as it does not handle a large page properly.
Following changes are made to vmalloc_fault().
64-bit:
- No change for the PGD sync operation as it handles large
pages already.
- Add pud_huge() and pmd_huge() to the validation code to
handle large pages.
- Change pud_page_vaddr() to pud_pfn() since an ioremap range
is not directly mapped (while the if-statement still works
with a bogus addr).
- Change pmd_page() to pmd_pfn() since an ioremap range is not
backed by struct page (while the if-statement still works
with a bogus addr).
32-bit:
- No change for the sync operation since the index3 PGD entry
covers the entire vmalloc range, which is always valid.
(A separate change to sync PGD entry is necessary if this
memory layout is changed regardless of the page size.)
- Add pmd_huge() to the validation code to handle large pages.
This is for completeness since vmalloc_fault() won't happen
in ioremap'd ranges as its PGD entry is always valid.

Remove the ftrace module notifier in favor of directly calling
ftrace_module_enable() and ftrace_release_mod() in the module loader.
Hard-coding the function calls directly in the module loader removes
dependence on the module notifier call chain and provides better
visibility and control over what gets called when, which is important
to kernel utilities such as livepatch.
This fixes a notifier ordering issue in which the ftrace module notifier
(and hence ftrace_module_enable()) for coming modules was being called
after klp_module_notify(), which caused livepatch modules to initialize
incorrectly. This patch removes dependence on the module notifier call
chain in favor of hard coding the corresponding function calls in the
module loader. This ensures that ftrace and livepatch code get called in
the correct order on patch module load and unload.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
"This includes two fixes.
The first is something that has come up a few times and has been
worked out individually, but it's come up now enough that the problem
should be generic. Tracepoints are protected by RCU sched. There are
several tracepoints within core infrastructure like kfree(). If a
tracepoint is called when the CPU is going down, or when it's coming
up but has yet to be recognized by RCU, a RCU warning is triggered.
This is a true bug as that tracepoint is not protected by RCU.
Usually, this is taken care of by testing for cpu online as a
tracepoint condition. But as this is happening more often, moving it
from a individual tracepoint to a check in the tracepoint
infrastructure is more robust.
Note, there is now a duplicate of a cpu online test, because this
update does not remove the individual checks. But the overhead is
small enough that the removal can be done in another release.
The second change is strange linker breakage due to the branch
tracer's builtin_constant_p() check failing, and treating the
condition as a variable instead of a constant. Arnd Bergmann found
that this can be fixed by testing !!(cond) instead of just (cond)"
