In order to increase the self-encapsulation of the dtpm generic code,
the following changes are adding a power update ops to the dtpm
ops. That allows the generic code to call directly the dtpm backend
function to update the power values.

The power update function does compute the power characteristics when
the function is invoked. In the case of the CPUs, the power
consumption depends on the number of online CPUs. The online CPUs mask
is not up to date at CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN state in the tear down
callback. That is the reason why the online / offline are at separate
state. As there is already an existing state for DTPM, this one is
only moved to the DEAD state, so there is no addition of new state
with these changes. The dtpm node is not removed when the cpu is
unplugged.

That simplifies the code for the next changes and results in a more
self-encapsulated code.

<title>mm/migrate: fix CPUHP state to update node demotion order</title>

<id>a6a0251c6fce496744121b4e08c899f45270dbcc</id>
<content type='text'>
The node demotion order needs to be updated during CPU hotplug.  Because
whether a NUMA node has CPU may influence the demotion order.  The
update function should be called during CPU online/offline after the
node_states[N_CPU] has been updated.  That is done in
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN during CPU online and in CPUHP_MM_VMSTAT_DEAD during
CPU offline.  But in commit 884a6e5d1f93 ("mm/migrate: update node
demotion order on hotplug events"), the function to update node demotion
order is called in CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN during CPU online/offline.  This
doesn't satisfy the order requirement.

For example, there are 4 CPUs (P0, P1, P2, P3) in 2 sockets (P0, P1 in S0
and P2, P3 in S1), the demotion order is

 - S0 -&gt; NUMA_NO_NODE
 - S1 -&gt; NUMA_NO_NODE

After P2 and P3 is offlined, because S1 has no CPU now, the demotion
order should have been changed to

 - S0 -&gt; S1
 - S1 -&gt; NO_NODE

but it isn't changed, because the order updating callback for CPU
hotplug doesn't see the new nodemask.  After that, if P1 is offlined,
the demotion order is changed to the expected order as above.

So in this patch, we added CPUHP_AP_MM_DEMOTION_ONLINE and
CPUHP_MM_DEMOTION_DEAD to be called after CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN and
CPUHP_MM_VMSTAT_DEAD during CPU online and offline, and register the
update function on them.

Pull xfs updates from Darrick Wong:
 "There's a lot in this cycle.

  Starting with bug fixes: To avoid livelocks between the logging code
  and the quota code, we've disabled the ability of quotaoff to turn off
  quota accounting. (Admins can still disable quota enforcement, but
  truly turning off accounting requires a remount.) We've tried to do
  this in a careful enough way that there shouldn't be any user visible
  effects aside from quotaoff no longer randomly hanging the system.

  We've also fixed some bugs in runtime log behavior that could trip up
  log recovery if (otherwise unrelated) transactions manage to start and
  commit concurrently; some bugs in the GETFSMAP ioctl where we would
  incorrectly restrict the range of records output if the two xfs
  devices are of different sizes; a bug that resulted in fallocate
  funshare failing unnecessarily; and broken behavior in the xfs inode
  cache when DONTCACHE is in play.

  As for new features: we now batch inode inactivations in percpu
  background threads, which sharply decreases frontend thread wait time
  when performing file deletions and should improve overall directory
  tree deletion times. This eliminates both the problem where closing an
  unlinked file (especially on a frozen fs) can stall for a long time,
  and should also ease complaints about direct reclaim bogging down on
  unlinked file cleanup.

  Starting with this release, we've enabled pipelining of the XFS log.
  On workloads with high rates of metadata updates to different shards
  of the filesystem, multiple threads can be used to format committed
  log updates into log checkpoints.

  Lastly, with this release, two new features have graduated to
  supported status: inode btree counters (for faster mounts), and
  support for dates beyond Y2038. Expect these to be enabled by default
  in a future release of xfsprogs.

  Summary:

   - Fix a potential log livelock on busy filesystems when there's so
     much work going on that we can't finish a quotaoff before filling
     up the log by removing the ability to disable quota accounting.

   - Introduce the ability to use per-CPU data structures in XFS so that
     we can do a better job of maintaining CPU locality for certain
     operations.

   - Defer inode inactivation work to per-CPU lists, which will help us
     batch that processing. Deletions of large sparse files will
     *appear* to run faster, but all that means is that we've moved the
     work to the backend.

   - Drop the EXPERIMENTAL warnings from the y2038+ support and the
     inode btree counters, since it's been nearly a year and no
     complaints have come in.

   - Remove more of our bespoke kmem* variants in favor of using the
     standard Linux calls.

   - Prepare for the addition of log incompat features in upcoming
     cycles by actually adding code to support this.

   - Small cleanups of the xattr code in preparation for landing support
     for full logging of extended attribute updates in a future cycle.

   - Replace the various log shutdown state and flag code all over xfs
     with a single atomic bit flag.

   - Fix a serious log recovery bug where log item replay can be skipped
     based on the start lsn of a transaction even though the transaction
     commit lsn is the key data point for that by enforcing start lsns
     to appear in the log in the same order as commit lsns.

   - Enable pipelining in the code that pushes log items to disk.

   - Drop -&gt;writepage.

   - Fix some bugs in GETFSMAP where the last fsmap record reported for
     a device could extend beyond the end of the device, and a separate
     bug where query keys for one device could be applied to another.

   - Don't let GETFSMAP query functions edit their input parameters.

   - Small cleanups to the scrub code's handling of perag structures.

   - Small cleanups to the incore inode tree walk code.

   - Constify btree function parameters that aren't changed, so that
     there will never again be confusion about range query functions
     changing their input parameters.

   - Standardize the format and names of tracepoint data attributes.

   - Clean up all the mount state and feature flags to use wrapped
     bitset functions instead of inconsistently open-coded flag checks.

   - Fix some confusion between xfs_buf hash table key variable vs.
     block number.

   - Fix a mis-interaction with iomap where we reported shared delalloc
     cow fork extents to iomap, which would cause the iomap unshare
     operation to return IO errors unnecessarily.

   - Fix DONTCACHE behavior"

Pull support for struct bio recycling from Jens Axboe:
 "This adds bio recycling support for polled IO, allowing quick reuse of
  a bio for high IOPS scenarios via a percpu bio_set list.

  It's good for almost a 10% improvement in performance, bumping our
  per-core IO limit from ~3.2M IOPS to ~3.5M IOPS"

Add a per-cpu bio_set cache for bio allocations, enabling us to quickly
recycle them instead of going through the slab allocator. This cache
isn't IRQ safe, and hence is only really suitable for polled IO.

Very simple - keeps a count of bio's in the cache, and maintains a max
of 512 with a slack of 64. If we get above max + slack, we drop slack
number of bio's.

<title>xfs: introduce CPU hotplug infrastructure</title>

We need to move to per-cpu state for both deferred inode
inactivation and CIL tracking, but to do that we
need to handle CPUs being removed from the system by the hot-plug
code. Introduce generic XFS infrastructure to handle CPU hotplug
events that is set up at module init time and torn down at module
exit time.

Initially, we only need CPU dead notifications, so we only set
up a callback for these notifications. The infrastructure can be
updated in future for other CPU hotplug state machine notifications
easily if ever needed.

<title>s390/cpumf: Allow concurrent access for CPU Measurement Counter Facility</title>

Commit cf6acb8bdb1d ("s390/cpumf: Add support for complete counter set extraction")
allows access to the CPU Measurement Counter Facility via character
device /dev/hwctr. The access was exclusive via this device or
via perf_event_open() system call. Only one path at a time was
permitted. The CPU Measurement Counter Facility device driver blocked
access to other processes.

This patch removes this restriction and allows concurrent access to
the CPU Measurement Counter Facility from multiple processes at the same
time via perf_event_open() SVC and via /dev/hwctr device. The access
via /dev/hwctr device is still exclusive, only one process is allowed to
access this device.

This patch
- moves the /dev/hwctr device access from file perf_cpum_cf_diag.c.
  to file perf_cpum_cf.c.
- use only one trace buffer .../s390dbf/cpum_cf.
- remove cfset_csd structure and includes its members it into the
  structure cpu_cf_events. This results in one data structure and
  simplifies the access.
- rework function familiy ctr_set_enable, ctr_set_disable, ctr_set_start
  and ctr_set_stop which operate on a counter set number.
  Now they operate on a counter set bit mask.
- move CF_DIAG event functionality to file perf_cpum_cf.c. It now
  contains the complete functionality of the CPU Measurement Counter
  Facility:
  - Performance measurement support for counters using perf stat.
  - Support for complete counter set extraction with device /dev/hwctr.
  - Support for counter set extraction event CF_DIAG attached to
    samples using perf record.
- removes file perf_cpum_cf_diag.c
