Pull rdma fixes from Doug Ledford:
 "Final set of -rc fixes for 4.6.

  I've collected up a number of patches that are all pretty small with
  the exception of only a couple.  The hfi1 driver has a number of
  important patches, and it is what really drives the line count of this
  pull request up.  These are all small and I've got this kernel built
  and running in the test lab (I have most of the hardware, I think nes
  is the only thing in this patch set that I can't say I've personally
  tested and have up and running).

  Summary:

   - A number of collected fixes for oopses, memory corruptions,
     deadlocks, etc.  All of these fixes are small (many only 5-10
     lines), obvious, and tested.

   - Fix for the security issue related to the use of write for
     bi-directional communications"

<id>28093f9f34cedeaea0f481c58446d9dac6dd620f</id>
<content type='text'>
In gather_pte_stats() a THP pmd is cast into a pte, which is wrong
because the layouts may differ depending on the architecture.  On s390
this will lead to inaccurate numa_maps accounting in /proc because of
misguided pte_present() and pte_dirty() checks on the fake pte.

On other architectures pte_present() and pte_dirty() may work by chance,
but there may be an issue with direct-access (dax) mappings w/o
underlying struct pages when HAVE_PTE_SPECIAL is set and THP is
available.  In vm_normal_page() the fake pte will be checked with
pte_special() and because there is no "special" bit in a pmd, this will
always return false and the VM_PFNMAP | VM_MIXEDMAP checking will be
skipped.  On dax mappings w/o struct pages, an invalid struct page
pointer would then be returned that can crash the kernel.

This patch fixes the numa_maps THP handling by introducing new "_pmd"
variants of the can_gather_numa_stats() and vm_normal_page() functions.

Andrea has found[1] a race condition on MMU-gather based TLB flush vs
split_huge_page() or shrinker which frees huge zero under us (patch 1/2
and 2/2 respectively).

With new THP refcounting, we don't need patch 1/2: mmu_gather keeps the
page pinned until flush is complete and the pin prevents the page from
being split under us.

We still need patch 2/2.  This is simplified version of Andrea's patch.
We don't need fancy encoding.

<title>mm: exclude HugeTLB pages from THP page_mapped() logic</title>

HugeTLB pages cannot be split, so we use the compound_mapcount to track
rmaps.

Currently page_mapped() will check the compound_mapcount, but will also
go through the constituent pages of a THP compound page and query the
individual _mapcount's too.

Unfortunately, page_mapped() does not distinguish between HugeTLB and
THP compound pages and assumes that a compound page always needs to have
HPAGE_PMD_NR pages querying.

For most cases when dealing with HugeTLB this is just inefficient, but
for scenarios where the HugeTLB page size is less than the pmd block
size (e.g.  when using contiguous bit on ARM) this can lead to crashes.

This patch adjusts the page_mapped function such that we skip the
unnecessary THP reference checks for HugeTLB pages.

mlx5 devices (Connect-IB, ConnectX-4, ConnectX-4-LX) has a limitation
where rdma read work queue entries cannot exceed 512 bytes.
A rdma_read wqe needs to fit in 512 bytes:
- wqe control segment (16 bytes)
- rdma segment (16 bytes)
- scatter elements (16 bytes each)

So max_sge_rd should be: (512 - 16 - 16) / 16 = 30.

mlx5 devices (Connect-IB, ConnectX-4, ConnectX-4-LX) has a limitation
where rdma read work queue entries cannot exceed 512 bytes.
A rdma_read wqe needs to fit in 512 bytes:
- wqe control segment (16 bytes)
- rdma segment (16 bytes)
- scatter elements (16 bytes each)

So max_sge_rd should be: (512 - 16 - 16) / 16 = 30.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "Two patches to fix a deadlock which can be easily triggered if memcg
  charge moving is used.

  This bug was introduced while converting threadgroup locking to a
  global percpu_rwsem and is caused by cgroup controller task migration
  path depending on the ability to create new kthreads.  cpuset had a
  similar issue which was fixed by performing heavy-lifting operations
  asynchronous to task migration.  The two patches fix the same issue in
  memcg in a similar way.  The first patch makes the mechanism generic
  and the second relocates memcg charge moving outside the migration
  path.

  Given that we don't want to perform heavy operations while
  writelocking threadgroup lock anyway, moving them out of the way is a
  desirable solution.  One thing to note is that the problem was
  difficult to debug because lockdep couldn't figure out the deadlock
  condition.  Looking into how to improve that"
