Specifics: 1) After the recent locking changes in the cpufreq core it is possible to trigger BUG_ON(!policy) in lock_policy_rwsem_read() if cpufreq_get() is called before registering a cpufreq driver. Fix from Viresh Kumar. 2) If intel_pstate has been loaded already, it doesn't make sense to do anything in acpi_cpufreq_init() and moreover doing something in there in that case may be harmful, so make that function return immediately if another cpufreq driver is already present. From Yinghai Lu. 3) The ACPI IPMI driver sometimes attempts to acquire a mutex from interrupt context, which can be avoided by replacing that mutex with a spinlock. From Lv Zheng. 4) A NULL pointer may be dereferenced by the exynos5440 cpufreq driver if a memory allocation made by it fails. Fix from Sachin Kamat. 5) Hanjun Guo's commit fixes a typo in the kerneldoc comment documenting acpi_bus_unregister_driver()" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / scan: fix typo in comments of acpi_bus_unregister_driver() cpufreq: exynos5440: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference cpufreq: check cpufreq driver is valid and cpufreq isn't disabled in cpufreq_get() acpi-cpufreq: skip loading acpi_cpufreq after intel_pstate ACPI / IPMI: Fix atomic context requirement of ipmi_msg_handler()
2013-09-28PCI: Workaround missing pci_set_master in pci driversYinghai Lu
Ben Herrenschmidt found that commit 928bea964827 ("PCI: Delay enabling bridges until they're needed") breaks PCI in some powerpc environments. The reason is that the PCIe port driver will call pci_enable_device() on the bridge, so the device is enabled, but skips pci_set_master because pcie_port_auto and no acpi on powerpc. Because of that, pci_enable_bridge() later on (called as a result of the child device driver doing pci_enable_device) will see the bridge as already enabled and will not call pci_set_master() on it. Fixed by add checking in pci_enable_bridge, and call pci_set_master if driver skip that. That will make the code more robot and wade off problem for missing pci_set_master in drivers.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux Pull s390 lockref enablement from Heiko Carstens: "Enabling the new lockless lockref variant on s390 would have been trivial until Tony Luck added a cpu_relax() call into the CMPXCHG_LOOP(), with commit d472d9d98b46 ("lockref: Relax in cmpxchg loop") As already mentioned cpu_relax() is very expensive on s390 since it yields() the current virtual cpu. So we are talking of several thousand cycles. Considering this enabling the lockless lockref variant would contradict the intention of the new semantics. And also some quick measurements show performance regressions of 50% and more. Simply removing the cpu_relax() call again seems also not very desireable since Waiman Long reported that for some workloads the call improved performance by 5%." * 'lockref' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: s390: enable ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF lockref: use arch_mutex_cpu_relax() in CMPXCHG_LOOP() mutex: replace CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX with simple ifdef

2013-09-27lockref: allow relaxed cmpxchg64 variant for lockless updatesWill Deacon
The 64-bit cmpxchg operation on the lockref is ordered by virtue of hazarding between the cmpxchg operation and the reference count manipulation. On weakly ordered memory architectures (such as ARM), it can be of great benefit to omit the barrier instructions where they are not needed. This patch moves the lockless lockref code over to a cmpxchg64_relaxed operation, which doesn't provide barrier semantics. If the operation isn't defined, we simply #define it as the usual 64-bit cmpxchg macro.

2013-09-26ALSA : hda - not use assigned converters for all unused pinsMengdong Lin
BIOS can mark a pin as "no physical connection" if the port is used by an integrated display which is not audio capable. And audio driver will overlook such pins. On Haswell, such a disconneted pin will keep muted and connected to the 1st converter by default. But if the 1st convertor is assigned to a connected pin for audio streaming. The muted disconnected pin can make the connected pin no sound output. So this patch avoids using assigned converters for all unused pins for Haswell, including the disconected pins.

2013-09-25xen/p2m: check MFN is in range before using the m2p tableDavid Vrabel
On hosts with more than 168 GB of memory, a 32-bit guest may attempt to grant map an MFN that is error cannot lookup in its mapping of the m2p table. There is an m2p lookup as part of m2p_add_override() and m2p_remove_override(). The lookup falls off the end of the mapped portion of the m2p and (because the mapping is at the highest virtual address) wraps around and the lookup causes a fault on what appears to be a user space address. do_page_fault() (thinking it's a fault to a userspace address), tries to lock mm->mmap_sem. If the gntdev device is used for the grant map, m2p_add_override() is called from from gnttab_mmap() with mm->mmap_sem already locked. do_page_fault() then deadlocks. The deadlock would most commonly occur when a 64-bit guest is started and xenconsoled attempts to grant map its console ring. Introduce mfn_to_pfn_no_overrides() which checks the MFN is within the mapped portion of the m2p table before accessing the table and use this in m2p_add_override(), m2p_remove_override(), and mfn_to_pfn() (which already had the correct range check). All faults caused by accessing the non-existant parts of the m2p are thus within the kernel address space and exception_fixup() is called without trying to lock mm->mmap_sem. This means that for MFNs that are outside the mapped range of the m2p then mfn_to_pfn() will always look in the m2p overrides. This is correct because it must be a foreign MFN (and the PFN in the m2p in this case is only relevant for the other domain).

2013-09-25powerpc/pseries: Do not start secondaries in Open FirmwareBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Starting secondary CPUs early on from Open Firmware and placing them in a holding spin loop slows down the boot process significantly under some hypervisors such as KVM. This is also unnecessary when RTAS supports querying the CPU state So let's not do it. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2013-09-25powerpc/zImage: make the "OF" wrapper support ePAPR bootBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This makes the "OF" zImage wrapper (zImage.pseries, zImage.pmac, zImage.maple) work if booted via a flat device-tree (ePAPR boot mode), and thus potentially usable with kexec. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2013-09-25powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64Benjamin Herrenschmidt
We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for detecting stack overflows. It has a few problems however: - First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but not actually exploited - When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit. Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

2013-09-25powerpc/irq: Run softirqs off the top of the irq stackBenjamin Herrenschmidt
Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated softirq stack. This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to the irq stack. This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
2013-09-24mm: Place preemption point in do_mlockall() loopPaul E. McKenney
There is a loop in do_mlockall() that lacks a preemption point, which means that the following can happen on non-preemptible builds of the kernel. Dave Jones reports: "My fuzz tester keeps hitting this. Every instance shows the non-irq stack came in from mlockall. I'm only seeing this on one box, but that has more ram (8gb) than my other machines, which might explain it. INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU { 3} (t=6500 jiffies g=470344 c=470343 q=0) sending NMI to all CPUs: NMI backtrace for cpu 3 CPU: 3 PID: 29664 Comm: trinity-child2 Not tainted 3.11.0-rc1+ #32 Call Trace: lru_add_drain_all+0x15/0x20 SyS_mlockall+0xa5/0x1a0 tracesys+0xdd/0xe2" This commit addresses this problem by inserting the required preemption point.
