It really doesn't make a lot of sense to have some of the logic to
handle caching vs. non-caching mode duplicated in qi_flush_context() and
__iommu_flush_context(), while the return value indicates whether the
caller should take other action which depends on the same thing.
Especially since qi_flush_context() thought it was returning something
entirely different anyway.
This patch makes qi_flush_context() and __iommu_flush_context() both
return void, removes the 'non_present_entry_flush' argument and makes
the only call site which _set_ that argument to 1 do the right thing.

However, it does not does not unlock it until it's all over.
As the result, it's safe to use to dispose of new superblock on ->get_sb()
failure exits - nobody will see the sucker until it's all over.
Equivalent using up_write/deactivate_super is safe for that purpose
if superblock is either safe to use or has NULL ->s_root when we unlock.
Normally filesystems take the required precautions, but
a) we do have bugs in that area in some of them.
b) up_write/deactivate_super sequence is extremely common,

The xattr_root caching was broken from my previous patch set. It wouldn't
cause corruption, but could cause decreased performance due to allocating
a larger chunk of the journal (~ 27 blocks) than it would actually use.
This patch loads the xattr root dentry at xattr initialization and creates
it on-demand. Since we're using the cached dentry, there's no point
in keeping lookup_or_create_dir around, so that's removed.

This reverts commit 006f4571a1:
This patch moves platform_data from struct device into
struct platform_device, based on the two ideas:
1. Now all platform_driver is registered by platform_driver_register,
which makes probe()/release()/... of platform_driver passed parameter
of platform_device *, so platform driver can get platform_data from
platform_device;
2. Other kind of devices do not need to use platform_data, we can
decrease size of device if moving it to platform_device.
Taking into consideration of thousands of files to be fixed and they
can't be finished in one night(maybe it will take a long time), so we
keep platform_data in device to allow two kind of cases coexist until
all platform devices pass its platfrom data from
platform_device->platform_data.
All patches to do this kind of conversion are welcome.
As we don't really want to do it, it was a bad idea.

Corey noticed that ioctl()s on grouped counters didn't work on
the whole group. This extends the ioctl() interface to take a
second argument that is interpreted as a flags field. We then
provide PERF_IOC_FLAG_GROUP to toggle the behaviour.
Having this flag gives the greatest flexibility, allowing you
to individually enable/disable/reset counters in a group, or
all together.

The conversion to the ntpv4 reference model
f199239373 ("ntp: convert to the NTP4
reference model") in 2.6.19 added nanosecond resolution the adjtimex
interface, but also changed the "stiffness" of the frequency adjustments,
causing NTP convergence time to greatly increase.
SHIFT_PLL, which reduces the stiffness of the freq adjustments, was
designed to be inversely linked to HZ, and the reference value of 4 was
designed for Unix systems using HZ=100. However Linux's clock steering
code mostly independent of HZ.
So this patch reduces the SHIFT_PLL value from 4 to 2, which causes NTPd
behavior to match kernels prior to 2.6.19, greatly reducing convergence
times, and improving close synchronization through environmental thermal
changes.
The patch also changes some l's to L's in nearby code to avoid misreading
50l as 501.

This patch introduces a new list in struct net_device and brings a set of
functions to handle the work with device address list. The list is a replacement
for the original dev_addr field and because in some situations there is need to
carry several device addresses with the net device. To be backward compatible,
dev_addr is made to point to the first member of the list so original drivers
sees no difference.

The WARN_ON in the ring buffer when a commit is preempted and the
buffer is filled by preceding writes can happen in normal operations.
The WARN_ON makes it look like a bug, not to mention, because
it does not stop tracing and calls printk which can also recurse, this
is prone to deadlock (the WARN_ON is not in a position to recurse).
This patch removes the WARN_ON and replaces it with a counter that
can be retrieved by a tracer. This counter is called commit_overrun.
While at it, I added a nmi_dropped counter to count any time an NMI entry
is dropped because the NMI could not take the spinlock.

This patch fixes a problem when you use 32 nodes in the cluster
match:
% iptables -I PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth0 -m cluster \
--cluster-total-nodes 32 --cluster-local-node 32 \
--cluster-hash-seed 0xdeadbeef -j MARK --set-mark 0xffff
iptables: Invalid argument. Run `dmesg' for more information.
% dmesg | tail -1
xt_cluster: this node mask cannot be higher than the total number of nodes
The problem is related to this checking:
if (info->node_mask >= (1 << info->total_nodes)) {
printk(KERN_ERR "xt_cluster: this node mask cannot be "
"higher than the total number of nodes\n");
return false;
}
(1 << 32) is 1. Thus, the checking fails.
BTW, I said this before but I insist: I have only tested the cluster
match with 2 nodes getting ~45% extra performance in an active-active setup.
The maximum limit of 32 nodes is still completely arbitrary. I'd really
appreciate if people that have more nodes in their setups let me know.

This introduces a CDC Ethernet Emulation Model (EEM) host side
driver to support USB EEM devices.
EEM is different from the Ethernet Control Model (ECM) currently
supported by the "CDC Ethernet" driver. One key difference is
that it doesn't require of USB interface alternate settings to
manage interface state; some maldesigned hardware can't handle
that part of USB. It also avoids a separate USB interface for
control and status updates.
