iter_file_splice_write() - a ->splice_write() instance that gathers the
pipe buffers, builds a bio_vec-based iov_iter covering those and feeds
it to ->write_iter(). A bunch of simple cases coverted to that...

New variant of iov_iter - ITER_BVEC in iter->type, backed with
bio_vec array instead of iovec one. Primitives taught to deal
with such beasts, __swap_write() switched to using that kind
of iov_iter.
Note that bio_vec is just a <page, offset, length> triple - there's
nothing block-specific about it. I've left the definition where it
was, but took it from under ifdef CONFIG_BLOCK.
Next target: ->splice_write()...

* switch to ->read_iter/->write_iter
* keep a pointer to iov_iter instead of iov/nr_segs
* do not modify iovecs; use iov_iter_truncate()/iov_iter_advance() and
a new primitive - iov_iter_reexpand() (expand previously truncated
iterator) istead.
* (racy) check for lustre VMAs intersecting with iovecs kept for now as
for_each_iov() loop.

Beginning to introduce those. Just the callers for now, and it's
clumsier than it'll eventually become; once we finish converting
aio_read and aio_write instances, the things will get nicer.
For now, these guys are in parallel to ->aio_read() and ->aio_write();
they take iocb and iov_iter, with everything in iov_iter already
validated. File offset is passed in iocb->ki_pos, iov/nr_segs -
in iov_iter.
Main concerns in that series are stack footprint and ability to
split the damn thing cleanly.

Since we are about to introduce new methods (read_iter/write_iter), the
tests in a bunch of places would have to grow inconveniently. Check
once (at open() time) and store results in ->f_mode as FMODE_CAN_READ
and FMODE_CAN_WRITE resp. It might end up being a temporary measure -
once everything switches from ->aio_{read,write} to ->{read,write}_iter
it might make sense to return to open-coded checks. We'll see...

Now It Can Be Done(tm) - we don't need to do iov_shorten() in
generic_file_direct_write() anymore, now that all ->direct_IO()
instances are converted to proper iov_iter methods and honour
iter->count and iter->iov_offset properly.
Get rid of count/ocount arguments of generic_file_direct_write(),
while we are at it.

iov_iter_get_pages(iter, pages, maxsize, &start) grabs references pinning
the pages of up to maxsize of (contiguous) data from iter. Returns the
amount of memory grabbed or -error. In case of success, the requested
area begins at offset start in pages[0] and runs through pages[1], etc.
Less than requested amount might be returned - either because the contiguous
area in the beginning of iterator is smaller than requested, or because
the kernel failed to pin that many pages.
direct-io.c switched to using iov_iter_get_pages()

For now, just use the same thing we pass to ->direct_IO() - it's all
iovec-based at the moment. Pass it explicitly to iov_iter_init() and
account for kvec vs. iovec in there, by the same kludge NFS ->direct_IO()
uses.

iov_iter-using variant of generic_file_aio_read(). Some callers
converted. Note that it's still not quite there for use as ->read_iter() -
we depend on having zero iter->iov_offset in O_DIRECT case. Fortunately,
that's true for all converted callers (and for generic_file_aio_read() itself).

Currently, I am seeing the following when I `mount -t hugetlbfs /none
/dev/hugetlbfs`, and then simply do a `ls /dev/hugetlbfs`. I think it's
related to the fact that hugetlbfs is properly not correctly setting
itself up in this state?:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000031
Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000000245710
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]
SMP NR_CPUS=2048 NUMA pSeries
....
In KVM guests on Power, in a guest not backed by hugepages, we see the
following:
AnonHugePages: 0 kB
HugePages_Total: 0
HugePages_Free: 0
HugePages_Rsvd: 0
HugePages_Surp: 0
Hugepagesize: 64 kB
HPAGE_SHIFT == 0 in this configuration, which indicates that hugepages
are not supported at boot-time, but this is only checked in
hugetlb_init(). Extract the check to a helper function, and use it in a
few relevant places.
This does make hugetlbfs not supported (not registered at all) in this
environment. I believe this is fine, as there are no valid hugepages
and that won't change at runtime.

Right now the core vsock module is the owner of the proto family. This
means there's nothing preventing the transport module from unloading if
there are open sockets, which results in a panic. Fix that by allowing

Commit d57c33c5daa4 (add generic fixmap.h) added (among other
similar things) set_fixmap_io to deal with early ioremap of devices.
More recently, commit bf4b558eba92 (arm64: add early_ioremap support)
converted the arm64 earlyprintk to use set_fixmap_io. A side effect of
this conversion is that my virtual machines have stopped booting when
I pass "earlyprintk=uart8250-8bit,0x3f8" to the guest kernel.
Turns out that the new earlyprintk code doesn't care at all about
sub-page offsets, and just assumes that the earlyprintk device will
be page-aligned. Obviously, that doesn't play well with the above example.
Further investigation shows that set_fixmap_io uses __set_fixmap instead
of __set_fixmap_offset. A fix is to introduce a set_fixmap_offset_io that
uses the latter, and to remove the superflous call to fix_to_virt
(which only returns the value that set_fixmap_io has already given us).
With this applied, my VMs are back in business. Tested on a Cortex-A57
platform with kvmtool as platform emulation.

If the victim in on the shrink list, don't remove it from there.
If shrink_dentry_list() manages to remove it from the list before
we are done - fine, we'll just free it as usual. If not - mark
it with new flag (DCACHE_MAY_FREE) and leave it there.
Eventually, shrink_dentry_list() will get to it, remove the sucker
from shrink list and call dentry_kill(dentry, 0). Which is where
we'll deal with freeing.
Since now dentry_kill(dentry, 0) may happen after or during
dentry_kill(dentry, 1), we need to recognize that (by seeing
DCACHE_DENTRY_KILLED already set), unlock everything
and either free the sucker (in case DCACHE_MAY_FREE has been
set) or leave it for ongoing dentry_kill(dentry, 1) to deal with.

Pull ftrace bugfix from Steven Rostedt:
"Takao Indoh reported that he was able to cause a ftrace bug while
loading a module and enabling function tracing at the same time.
He uncovered a race where the module when loaded will convert the
calls to mcount into nops, and expects the module's text to be RW.
But when function tracing is enabled, it will convert all kernel text
(core and module) from RO to RW to convert the nops to calls to ftrace
to record the function. After the convertion, it will convert all the
text back from RW to RO.
The issue is, it will also convert the module's text that is loading.
If it converts it to RO before ftrace does its conversion, it will
cause ftrace to fail and require a reboot to fix it again.
This patch moves the ftrace module update that converts calls to
mcount into nops to be done when the module state is still
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED. This will ignore the module when the text is
being converted from RW back to RO"

This branch contains a pair of important bug fixes for the DT code:
- Fix some incorrect binding property names before they enter common
usage
- Fix bug where some platform devices will be unable to get their
interrupt number when they depend on an interrupt controller that
is not available at device creation time. This is a problem
causing mainline to fail on a number of ARM platforms"
* tag 'dt-for-linus' of git://git.secretlab.ca/git/linux:

A race exists between module loading and enabling of function tracer.
CPU 1 CPU 2
----- -----
load_module()
module->state = MODULE_STATE_COMING
register_ftrace_function()
mutex_lock(&ftrace_lock);
ftrace_startup()
update_ftrace_function();
ftrace_arch_code_modify_prepare()
set_all_module_text_rw();
<enables-ftrace>
ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
set_all_module_text_ro();
[ here all module text is set to RO,
including the module that is
loading!! ]
blocking_notifier_call_chain(MODULE_STATE_COMING);
ftrace_init_module()
[ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails!
ftrace_bug() is called]
When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.
The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.
The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

The patch extends fuse_setattr_in, and extends the flush procedure
(fuse_flush_times()) called on ->write_inode() to send the ctime as well as
mtime.

Allow userspace fs to specify time granularity.
This is needed because with writeback_cache mode the kernel is responsible
for generating mtime and ctime, but if the underlying filesystem doesn't
support nanosecond granularity then the cache will contain a different
value from the one stored on the filesystem resulting in a change of times
after a cache flush.
Make the default granularity 1s.

On x86 the allocation of irq descriptors may allocate interrupts which
are in the range of the GSI interrupts. That's wrong as those
interrupts are hardwired and we don't have the irq domain translation
like PPC. So one of these interrupts can be hooked up later to one of
the devices which are hard wired to it and the io_apic init code for
that particular interrupt line happily reuses that descriptor with a
completely different configuration so hell breaks lose.
Inside x86 we allocate dynamic interrupts from above nr_gsi_irqs,
except for a few usage sites which have not yet blown up in our face
for whatever reason. But for drivers which need an irq range, like the
GPIO drivers, we have no limit in place and we don't want to expose
such a detail to a driver.
To cure this introduce a function which an architecture can implement
to impose a lower bound on the dynamic interrupt allocations.
Implement it for x86 and set the lower bound to nr_gsi_irqs, which is
the end of the hardwired interrupt space, so all dynamic allocations
happen above.
That not only allows the GPIO driver to work sanely, it also protects
the bogus callsites of create_irq_nr() in hpet, uv, irq_remapping and
htirq code. They need to be cleaned up as well, but that's a separate
issue.

The asm-generic, big-endian version of zero_bytemask creates a mask of
bytes preceding the first zero-byte by left shifting ~0ul based on the
position of the first zero byte.
Unfortunately, if the first (top) byte is zero, the output of
prep_zero_mask has only the top bit set, resulting in undefined C
behaviour as we shift left by an amount equal to the width of the type.
As it happens, GCC doesn't manage to spot this through the call to fls(),
but the issue remains if architectures choose to implement their shift
instructions differently.
An example would be arch/arm/ (AArch32), where LSL Rd, Rn, #32 results
in Rd == 0x0, whilst on arch/arm64 (AArch64) LSL Xd, Xn, #64 results in
Xd == Xn.
Rather than check explicitly for the problematic shift, this patch adds
an extra shift by 1, replacing fls with __fls. Since zero_bytemask is
never called with a zero argument (has_zero() is used to check the data
first), we don't need to worry about calling __fls(0), which is
undefined.
