ff1b6e69ad nl80211/cfg80211: WoWLAN support
This is based on (but now quite far from) the
original work from Luis and Eliad. Add support
for configuring WoWLAN triggers, and getting
the configuration out again. Changes from the
original patchset are too numerous to list,
but one important change needs highlighting:
the suspend() callback is passed NULL for the
trigger configuration if userspace has not
configured WoWLAN at all.

228e548e60 net: Add sendmmsg socket system call
This patch adds a multiple message send syscall and is the send
version of the existing recvmmsg syscall. This is heavily
based on the patch by Arnaldo that added recvmmsg.

I wrote a microbenchmark to test the performance gains of using
this new syscall:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/sendmmsg_test.c

The test was run on a ppc64 box with a 10 Gbit network card. The
benchmark can send both UDP and RAW ethernet packets.

64B UDP

batch   pkts/sec
1       804570
2       872800 (+ 8 %)
4       916556 (+14 %)
8       939712 (+17 %)
16      952688 (+18 %)
32      956448 (+19 %)
64      964800 (+20 %)

64B raw socket

batch   pkts/sec
1       1201449
2       1350028 (+12 %)
4       1461416 (+22 %)
8       1513080 (+26 %)
16      1541216 (+28 %)
32      1553440 (+29 %)
64      1557888 (+30 %)

We see a 20% improvement in throughput on UDP send and 30%
on raw socket send.

30106b8ce2 slub: Fix the lockless code on 32-bit platforms with no 64-bit cmpxchg
The SLUB allocator use of the cmpxchg_double logic was wrong: it
actually needs the irq-safe one.

That happens automatically when we use the native unlocked 'cmpxchg8b'
instruction, but when compiling the kernel for older x86 CPUs that do
not support that instruction, we fall back to the generic emulation
code.

And if you don't specify that you want the irq-safe version, the generic
code ends up just open-coding the cmpxchg8b equivalent without any
protection against interrupts or preemption.  Which definitely doesn't
work for SLUB.

This was reported by Werner Landgraf <w.landgraf@ru.ru>, who saw
instability with his distro-kernel that was compiled to support pretty
much everything under the sun.  Most big Linux distributions tend to
compile for PPro and later, and would never have noticed this problem.

This also fixes the prototypes for the irqsafe cmpxchg_double functions
to use 'bool' like they should.

[ Btw, that whole "generic code defaults to no protection" design just
  sounds stupid - if the code needs no protection, there is no reason to
  use "cmpxchg_double" to begin with.  So we should probably just remove
  the unprotected version entirely as pointless.   - Linus ]

2d06d8c49a [CPUFREQ] use dynamic debug instead of custom infrastructure
With dynamic debug having gained the capability to report debug messages
also during the boot process, it offers a far superior interface for
debug messages than the custom cpufreq infrastructure. As a first step,
remove the old cpufreq_debug_printk() function and replace it with a call
to the generic pr_debug() function.

How can dynamic debug be used on cpufreq? You need a kernel which has
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled.

To enabled debugging during runtime, mount debugfs and

$ echo -n 'module cpufreq +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

for debugging the complete "cpufreq" module. To achieve the same goal during
boot, append

	ddebug_query="module cpufreq +p"

as a boot parameter to the kernel of your choice.

For more detailled instructions, please see
Documentation/dynamic-debug-howto.txt

3448a19da4 vgaarb: use bridges to control VGA routing where possible.
So in a lot of modern systems, a GPU will always be below a parent bridge that won't share with any other GPUs. This means VGA arbitration on those GPUs can be controlled by using the bridge routing instead of io/mem decodes.

The problem is locating which GPUs share which upstream bridges. This patch attempts to identify all the GPUs which can be controlled via bridges, and ones that can't. This patch endeavours to work out the bridge sharing semantics.

When disabling GPUs via a bridge, it doesn't do irq callbacks or touch the io/mem decodes for the gpu.

c430131a02 USB: EHCI: Support controllers with big endian capability regs
The two first HC capability registers (CAPLENGTH and HCIVERSION)
are defined as one 8-bit and one 16-bit register. Most HC
implementations have selected to treat these registers as part
of a 32-bit register, giving the same layout for both big and
small endian systems.

This patch adds a new quirk, big_endian_capbase, to support
controllers with big endian register interfaces that treat
HCIVERSION and CAPLENGTH as individual registers.

ehci_caps is defined with __attribute__((packed)) for no good reason,

99ee5315da timerfd: Allow timers to be cancelled when clock was set
Some applications must be aware of clock realtime being set
backward. A simple example is a clock applet which arms a timer for
the next minute display. If clock realtime is set backward then the
applet displays a stale time for the amount of time which the clock
was set backwards. Due to that applications poll the time because we
don't have an interface.

Extend the timerfd interface by adding a flag which puts the timer
onto a different internal realtime clock. All timers on this clock are
expired whenever the clock was set.

The timerfd core records the monotonic offset when the timer is
created. When the timer is armed, then the current offset is compared
to the previous recorded offset. When it has changed, then
timerfd_settime returns -ECANCELED. When a timer is read the offset is
compared and if it changed -ECANCELED returned to user space. Periodic
timers are not rearmed in the cancelation case.

is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if
the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't
get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of
setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET).

This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it
sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to
drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings()
does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function
also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline.

All drivers visible to make allyesconfig under x86_64 have been
updated.

3650460543 ethtool: cosmetics: enforce const-ness in ethtool_cmd_speed
The 'ep' argument of ethtool_cmd_speed is not altered: advertise it in
protoype. +Indentation fix. Also add comments to advise using the
ethtool_cmd_speed API to get/set the link speed.

8f62242246 perf events: Add generic front-end and back-end stalled cycle event definitions
Add two generic hardware events: front-end and back-end stalled cycles.

These events measure conditions when the CPU is executing code but its
capabilities are not fully utilized. Understanding such situations and
analyzing them is an important sub-task of code optimization workflows.

Both events limit performance: most front end stalls tend to be caused
by branch misprediction or instruction fetch cachemisses, backend
stalls can be caused by various resource shortages or inefficient
instruction scheduling.

Front-end stalls are the more important ones: code cannot run fast
if the instruction stream is not being kept up.

An over-utilized back-end can cause front-end stalls and thus
has to be kept an eye on as well.

The exact composition is very program logic and instruction mix
dependent.

We use the terms 'stall', 'front-end' and 'back-end' loosely and
try to use the best available events from specific CPUs that
approximate these concepts.

1d2b71f61b PM / Runtime: Add subsystem data field to struct dev_pm_info
Some subsystems need to attach PM-related data to struct device and
they need to use devres for this purpose.  For their convenience
and to make code more straightforward, add a new field called
subsys_data to struct dev_pm_info and let subsystems use it for
attaching PM-related information to devices.

Convert the ARM shmobile platform to using the new field.

5d30b10bd6 flex_array: flex_array_prealloc takes a number of elements, not an end
Change flex_array_prealloc to take the number of elements for which space
should be allocated instead of the last (inclusive) element. Users
and documentation are updated accordingly.  flex_arrays got introduced before
they had users.  When folks started using it, they ended up needing a
different API than was coded up originally.  This swaps over to the API that
folks apparently need.
