PREEMPT_RCU and TREE_PREEMPT_RCU serve the same function after
TINY_PREEMPT_RCU has been removed. This patch removes TREE_PREEMPT_RCU
and uses PREEMPT_RCU config option in its place.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

Pull core block layer changes from Jens Axboe:
"This is the core block IO pull request for 3.18. Apart from the new

and cleanups.
- blk-mq timeout updates and fixes from Christoph.
- Removal of REQ_END, also from Christoph. We pass it through the
->queue_rq() hook for blk-mq instead, freeing up one of the request
bits. The space was overly tight on 32-bit, so Martin also killed
REQ_KERNEL since it's no longer used.
- blk integrity updates and fixes from Martin and Gu Zheng.
- Update to the flush machinery for blk-mq from Ming Lei. Now we
have a per hardware context flush request, which both cleans up the
code should scale better for flush intensive workloads on blk-mq.
- Improve the error printing, from Rob Elliott.
- Backing device improvements and cleanups from Tejun.

- Make blk_get_request() return error pointers, fixing up issues
where we NULL deref when a device goes bad or missing. From Joe
Lawrence.
- Prep work for drastically reducing the memory consumption of dm

Add ndo_gso_check which a device can define to indicate whether is
is capable of doing GSO on a packet. This funciton would be called from
the stack to determine whether software GSO is needed to be done. A
driver should populate this function if it advertises GSO types for
which there are combinations that it wouldn't be able to handle. For
instance a device that performs UDP tunneling might only implement
support for transparent Ethernet bridging type of inner packets
or might have limitations on lengths of inner headers.

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

Pull clock tree updates from Mike Turquette:
"The clk tree changes for 3.18 are dominated by clock drivers. Mostly
fixes and enhancements to existing drivers as well as new drivers.
This tag contains a bit more arch code than I usually take due to some
OMAP2+ changes. Additionally it contains the restart notifier
handlers which are merged as a dependency into several trees.
The PXA changes are the only messy part. Due to having a stable tree
I had to revert one patch and follow up with one more fix near the tip
of this tag. Some dead code is introduced but it will soon become
live code after 3.18-rc1 is released as the rest of the PXA family is
converted over to the common clock framework.
Another trend in this tag is that multiple vendors have started to
push the complexity of changing their CPU frequency into the clock
driver, whereas this used to be done in CPUfreq drivers.
Changes to the clk core include a generic gpio-clock type and a
clk_set_phase() function added to the top-level clk.h api. Due to
some confusion on the fbdev mailing list the kernel boot parameters
documentation was updated to further explain the clk_ignore_unused
parameter, which is often required by users of the simplefb driver.
Finally some fixes to the locking around the clock debugfs stuff was
done to prevent deadlocks when interacting with other subsystems."

virtio spec 0.9.X requires DRIVER_OK to be set before
VQs are used, but some drivers use VQs before probe
function returns.
Since DRIVER_OK is set after probe, this violates the spec.
Even though under virtio 1.0 transitional devices support this
behaviour, we want to make it possible for those early callers to become
spec compliant and eventually support non-transitional devices.
Add API for drivers to call before using VQs.
Sets DRIVER_OK internally.

Defer config changed notifications that arrive during
probe/scan/freeze/restore.
This will allow drivers to set DRIVER_OK earlier, without worrying about
racing with config change interrupts.
This change will also benefit old hypervisors (before 2009)
that send interrupts without checking DRIVER_OK: previously,
the callback could race with driver-specific initialization.
This will also help simplify drivers.

Replace duplicated code in all transports with a single wrapper in
virtio.c.
The only functional change is in virtio_mmio.c: if a buggy device sends
us an interrupt before driver is set, we previously returned IRQ_NONE,
now we return IRQ_HANDLED.
As this must not happen in practice, this does not look like a big deal.

able to use the interlocked-access instructions.
- The kernel part for the support of the vector extension is added.

For VMAs that don't want write notifications, PTEs created for read faults
have their write bit set. If the read fault happens after VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared, then the PTE's softdirty bit will remain clear after subsequent
writes.
Here's a simple code snippet to demonstrate the bug:
char* m = mmap(NULL, getpagesize(), PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_SHARED, -1, 0);
system("echo 4 > /proc/$PPID/clear_refs"); /* clear VM_SOFTDIRTY */
assert(*m == '\0'); /* new PTE allows write access */
assert(!soft_dirty(x));
*m = 'x'; /* should dirty the page */
assert(soft_dirty(x)); /* fails */
With this patch, write notifications are enabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is
cleared. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary faults, write notifications
are disabled when VM_SOFTDIRTY is set.
As a side effect of enabling and disabling write notifications with
care, this patch fixes a bug in mprotect where vm_page_prot bits set by
drivers were zapped on mprotect. An analogous bug was fixed in mmap by
commit c9d0bf241451 ("mm: uncached vma support with writenotify").

In some cases we don't want hard lockup detection enabled by default.
An example is when running as a guest. Introduce
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(bool)
allowing those cases to disable hard lockup detection. This must be
executed early by the boot processor from e.g. smp_prepare_boot_cpu, in
order to allow kernel command line arguments to override it, as well as
to avoid hard lockup detection being enabled before we've had a chance
to indicate that it's unwanted. In summary,
initial boot: default=enabled
smp_prepare_boot_cpu
watchdog_enable_hardlockup_detector(false): default=disabled
cmdline has 'nmi_watchdog=1': default=enabled
The running kernel still has the ability to enable/disable at any time
with /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog us usual. However even when the
default has been overridden /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog will initially
show '1'. To truly turn it on one must disable/enable it, i.e.
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
This patch will be immediately useful for KVM with the next patch of this
series. Other hypervisor guest types may find it useful as well.

We have a large university system in the UK that is experiencing very long
delays modprobing the driver for a specific I/O device. The delay is from
8-10 minutes per device and there are 31 devices in the system. This 4 to
5 hour delay in starting up those I/O devices is very much a burden on the
customer.
There are two causes for requiring a restart/reload of the drivers. First
is periodic preventive maintenance (PM) and the second is if any of the
devices experience a fatal error. Both of these trigger this excessively
long delay in bringing the system back up to full capability.
The problem was tracked down to a very slow IOREMAP operation and the
excessively long ioresource lookup to insure that the user is not
attempting to ioremap RAM. These patches provide a speed up to that
function.
The modprobe time appears to be affected quite a bit by previous activity
on the ioresource list, which I suspect is due to cache preloading. While
the overall improvement is impacted by other overhead of starting the
devices, this drastically improves the modprobe time.
Also our system is considerably smaller so the percentages gained will not
be the same. Best case improvement with the modprobe on our 20 device
smallish system was from 'real 5m51.913s' to 'real 0m18.275s'.
This patch (of 2):
Since the ioremap operation is verifying that the specified address range
is NOT RAM, it will search the entire ioresource list if the condition is
true. To make matters worse, it does this one 4k page at a time. For a
128M BAR region this is 32 passes to determine the entire region does not
contain any RAM addresses.
This patch provides another resource lookup function, region_is_ram, that
searches for the entire region specified, verifying that it is completely
contained within the resource region. If it is found, then it is checked
to be RAM or not, within a single pass.
The return result reflects if it was found or not (-1), and whether it is
RAM (1) or not (0). This allows the caller to fallback to the previous
page by page search if it was not found.
