Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These fix two bugs in error code paths in the PM core (system-wide
  suspend of devices), a device reference leak in the boot-time suspend
  test code and a cpupower utility regression from the 4.7 cycle.

  Specifics:

   - Prevent the PM core from attempting to suspend parent devices if
     any of their children, whose suspend callbacks were invoked
     asynchronously, have failed to suspend during the "late" and
     "noirq" phases of system-wide suspend of devices (Brian Norris).

   - Prevent the boot-time system suspend test code from leaking a
     reference to the RTC device used by it (Johan Hovold).

   - Fix cpupower to use the return value of one of its library
     functions correctly and restore the correct behavior of it when
     used for setting cpufreq tunables broken during the 4.7 development
     cycle (Laura Abbott)"

Revert "console: don't prefer first registered if DT specifies stdout-path"

2016-11-11T16:12:37+00:00

This reverts commit 05fd007e4629 ("console: don't prefer first
registered if DT specifies stdout-path").

The reverted commit changes existing behavior on which many ARM boards
rely.  Many ARM small-board-computers, like e.g.  the Raspberry Pi have
both a video output and a serial console.  Depending on whether the user
is using the device as a more regular computer; or as a headless device
we need to have the console on either one or the other.

Many users rely on the kernel behavior of the console being present on
both outputs, before the reverted commit the console setup with no
console= kernel arguments on an ARM board which sets stdout-path in dt
would look like this:

  [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/consoles
  ttyS0                -W- (EC p a)    4:64
  tty0                 -WU (E  p  )    4:1

Where as after the reverted commit, it looks like this:

  [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/consoles
  ttyS0                -W- (EC p a)    4:64

This commit reverts commit 05fd007e4629 ("console: don't prefer first
registered if DT specifies stdout-path") restoring the original
behavior.

sched/core: Remove pointless printout in sched_show_task()

2016-11-03T06:31:34+00:00

In sched_show_task() we print out a useless hex number, not even a
symbol, and there's a big question mark whether this even makes sense
anyway, I suspect we should just remove it all.

sched/core: Fix oops in sched_show_task()

2016-11-03T06:27:34+00:00

When CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, it is possible that an exited thread
remains in the task list after its stack pointer was already set to NULL.

Therefore, thread_saved_pc() and stack_not_used() in sched_show_task()
will trigger NULL pointer dereference if an attempt to dump such thread's
traces (e.g. SysRq-t, khungtaskd) is made.

Since show_stack() in sched_show_task() calls try_get_task_stack() and
sched_show_task() is called from interrupt context, calling
try_get_task_stack() from sched_show_task() will be safe as well.

fork: Add task stack refcounting sanity check and prevent premature task stack freeing

2016-11-01T06:39:17+00:00

If something goes wrong with task stack refcounting and a stack
refcount hits zero too early, warn and leak it rather than
potentially freeing it early (and silently).

Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These fix two intel_pstate issues related to the way it works when the
  scaling_governor sysfs attribute is set to "performance" and fix up
  messages in the system suspend core code.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a missing KERN_CONT in a system suspend message by converting
     the affected code to using pr_info() and pr_cont() instead of the
     "raw" printk() (Jon Hunter).

   - Make intel_pstate set the CPU P-state from its .set_policy()
     callback when the scaling_governor sysfs attribute is set to
     "performance" so that it interacts with NOHZ_FULL more predictably
     which was the case before 4.7 (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Make intel_pstate always request the maximum allowed P-state when
     the scaling_governor sysfs attribute is set to "performance" to
     prevent it from effectively ingoring that setting is some
     situations (Rafael Wysocki)"
