Revert commit 44cc89f76464 ("PM: runtime: Update device status
before letting suppliers suspend") that introduced a race condition
into __rpm_callback() which allowed a concurrent rpm_resume() to
run and resume the device prematurely after its status had been
changed to RPM_SUSPENDED by __rpm_callback().

The function device_add_software_node() was meant to
register the node supplied to it, but only if that node
wasn't already registered. Right now the function attempts
to always register the node. That will cause a failure with
nodes that are already registered.

Fixing that by incrementing the reference count of the nodes
that have already been registered, and only registering the
new nodes. Also, clarifying the behaviour in the function
documentation.

Because the PM-runtime status of the device is not updated in
__rpm_callback(), attempts to suspend the suppliers of the given
device triggered by rpm_put_suppliers() called by it may fail.

Fix this by making __rpm_callback() update the device's status to
RPM_SUSPENDED before calling rpm_put_suppliers() if the current
status of the device is RPM_SUSPENDING and the callback just invoked
by it has returned 0 (success).

While at it, modify the code in __rpm_callback() to always check
the device's PM-runtime status under its PM lock.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "A handful of new RISC-V related patches for this merge window:

   - A check to ensure drivers are properly using uaccess. This isn't
     manifesting with any of the drivers I'm currently using, but may
     catch errors in new drivers.

   - Some preliminary support for the FU740, along with the HiFive
     Unleashed it will appear on.

   - NUMA support for RISC-V, which involves making the arm64 code
     generic.

   - Support for kasan on the vmalloc region.

   - A handful of new drivers for the Kendryte K210, along with the DT
     plumbing required to boot on a handful of K210-based boards.

   - Support for allocating ASIDs.

   - Preliminary support for kernels larger than 128MiB.

   - Various other improvements to our KASAN support, including the
     utilization of huge pages when allocating the KASAN regions.

  We may have already found a bug with the KASAN_VMALLOC code, but it's
  passing my tests. There's a fix in the works, but that will probably
  miss the merge window.

<title>drivers/base/memory: don't store phys_device in memory blocks</title>

No need to store the value for each and every memory block, as we can
easily query the value at runtime.  Reshuffle the members to optimize the
memory layout.  Also, let's clarify what the interface once was used for
and why it's legacy nowadays.

"phys_device" was used on s390x in older versions of lsmem[2]/chmem[3],
back when they were still part of s390x-tools.  They were later replaced
by the variants in linux-utils.  For example, RHEL6 and RHEL7 contain
lsmem/chmem from s390-utils.  RHEL8 switched to versions from util-linux
on s390x [4].

"phys_device" was added with sysfs support for memory hotplug in commit
3947be1969a9 ("[PATCH] memory hotplug: sysfs and add/remove functions") in
2005.  It always returned 0.

s390x started returning something != 0 on some setups (if sclp.rzm is set
by HW) in 2010 via commit 57b552ba0b2f ("memory hotplug/s390: set
phys_device").

For s390x, it allowed for identifying which memory block devices belong to
the same storage increment (RZM).  Only if all memory block devices
comprising a single storage increment were offline, the memory could
actually be removed in the hypervisor.

Since commit e5d709bb5fb7 ("s390/memory hotplug: provide
memory_block_size_bytes() function") in 2013 a memory block device spans
at least one storage increment - which is why the interface isn't really
helpful/used anymore (except by old lsmem/chmem tools).

There were once RFC patches to make use of "phys_device" in ACPI context;
however, the underlying problem could be solved using different interfaces
[1].

This renames all 'memhp' instances to 'mhp' except for memhp_default_state
for being a kernel command line option.  This is just a clean up and
should not cause a functional change.  Let's make it consistent rater than
mixing the two prefixes.  In preparation for more users of the 'mhp'
terminology.

This renames all 'memhp' instances to 'mhp' except for memhp_default_state
for being a kernel command line option.  This is just a clean up and
should not cause a functional change.  Let's make it consistent rater than
mixing the two prefixes.  In preparation for more users of the 'mhp'
terminology.

<title>mm: memcg: add swapcache stat for memcg v2</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch adds swapcache stat for the cgroup v2.  The swapcache
represents the memory that is accounted against both the memory and the
swap limit of the cgroup.  The main motivation behind exposing the
swapcache stat is for enabling users to gracefully migrate from cgroup
v1's memsw counter to cgroup v2's memory and swap counters.

Cgroup v1's memsw limit allows users to limit the memory+swap usage of a
workload but without control on the exact proportion of memory and swap.
Cgroup v2 provides separate limits for memory and swap which enables more
control on the exact usage of memory and swap individually for the
workload.

With some little subtleties, the v1's memsw limit can be switched with the
sum of the v2's memory and swap limits.  However the alternative for memsw
usage is not yet available in cgroup v2.  Exposing per-cgroup swapcache
stat enables that alternative.  Adding the memory usage and swap usage and
subtracting the swapcache will approximate the memsw usage.  This will
help in the transparent migration of the workloads depending on memsw
usage and limit to v2' memory and swap counters.

The reasons these applications are still interested in this approximate
memsw usage are: (1) these applications are not really interested in two
separate memory and swap usage metrics.  A single usage metric is more
simple to use and reason about for them.

(2) The memsw usage metric hides the underlying system's swap setup from
the applications.  Applications with multiple instances running in a
datacenter with heterogeneous systems (some have swap and some don't) will
keep seeing a consistent view of their usage.

<title>mm: memcontrol: convert NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED account to pages</title>

Currently we use struct per_cpu_nodestat to cache the vmstat counters,
which leads to inaccurate statistics especially THP vmstat counters.  In
the systems with hundreds of processors it can be GBs of memory.  For
example, for a 96 CPUs system, the threshold is the maximum number of 125.
And the per cpu counters can cache 23.4375 GB in total.

The THP page is already a form of batched addition (it will add 512 worth
of memory in one go) so skipping the batching seems like sensible.
Although every THP stats update overflows the per-cpu counter, resorting
to atomic global updates.  But it can make the statistics more accuracy
for the THP vmstat counters.

So we convert the NR_FILE_PMDMAPPED account to pages.  This patch is
consistent with 8f182270dfec ("mm/swap.c: flush lru pvecs on compound page
arrival").  Doing this also can make the unit of vmstat counters more
unified.  Finally, the unit of the vmstat counters are pages, kB and
bytes.  The B/KB suffix can tell us that the unit is bytes or kB.  The
rest which is without suffix are pages.
