Merge branch 'stable/for-jens-3.9' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen into for-linus Konrad writes: [the branch] has a bunch of fixes. They vary from being able to deal with unknown requests, overflow in statistics, compile warnings, bug in the error path, removal of unnecessary logic. There is also one performance fix - which is to allocate pages for requests when the driver loads - instead of doing it per request

We already have the frame (pfn of the grant page) stored inside struct grant, so there's no need to keep an aditional list of mapped frames for a specific request. This reduces memory usage in blkfront.

This prevents us from having to call alloc_page while we are preparing the request. Since blkfront was calling alloc_page with a spinlock held we used GFP_ATOMIC, which can fail if we are requesting a lot of pages since it is using the emergency memory pools. Allocating all the pages at init prevents us from having to call alloc_page, thus preventing possible failures.

dev_bus_addr returned in the grant ref map operation is the mfn of the passed page, there's no need to store it in the persistent grant entry, since we can always get it provided that we have the page. This reduces the memory overhead of persistent grants in blkback. While at it, rename the 'seg[i].buf' to be 'seg[i].offset' as it makes much more sense - as we use that value in bio_add_page which as the fourth argument expects the offset. We hadn't used the physical address as part of this at all.

The git commit f84adf49 (xen-blkfront: drop the use of llist_for_each_entry_safe) was a stop-gate to fix a GCC4.1 bug. The appropiate way is to actually use an list instead of using an llist. As such this patch replaces the usage of llist with an list. Since we always manipulate the list while holding the io_lock, there's no need for additional locking (llist used previously is safe to use concurrently without additional locking).

Commit 77089926 ("xen/blkback: Seperate the bio allocation and the bio submission") consolidated the pendcnt updates to just a single write, neglecting the fact that the error path relied on it getting set to 1 up front (such that the decrement in __end_block_io_op() would actually drop the count to zero, triggering the necessary cleanup actions). Also remove a misleading and a stale (after said commit) comment.

If the frontend is using a non-native protocol (e.g., a 64-bit frontend with a 32-bit backend) and it sent an unrecognized request, the request was not translated and the response would have the incorrect ID. This may cause the frontend driver to behave incorrectly or crash. Since the ID field in the request is always in the same place, regardless of the request type we can get the correct ID and make a valid response (which will report BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP). This bug affected 64-bit SLES 11 guests when using a 32-bit backend. This guest does a BLKIF_OP_RESERVED_1 (BLKIF_OP_PACKET in the SLES source) and would crash in blkif_int() as the ID in the response would be invalid.

There is a more complete atmel patch-series out by Nick Dyer that fixes this and other things, but in the meantime this is the minimal thing to get the touchscreen going on (at least my) Pixel Chromebook. Not that I want my dirty fingers near that beautiful screen, but it seems that a non-initialized touchscreen will also end up being a constant wakeup source, so you have to disable it to go to sleep. And it's easier to just fix the initialization sequence. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Update proc_ns_follow_link to use nd_jump_link instead of just manually updating nd.path.dentry. This fixes the BUG_ON(nd->inode != parent->d_inode) reported by Dave Jones and reproduced trivially with mkdir /proc/self/ns/uts/a. Sigh it looks like the VFS change to require use of nd_jump_link happend while proc_ns_follow_link was baking and since the common case of proc_ns_follow_link continued to work without problems the need for making this change was overlooked.

This same driver can be used by atmel based touchscreens and touchpads (buttonpads). Platform data may specify a device is a touchpad using the is_tp flag. This will cause the driver to perform some touchpad specific initializations, such as: * register input device name "Atmel maXTouch Touchpad" instead of Touchscreen. * register BTN_LEFT & BTN_TOOL_* event types. * register axis resolution (as a fixed constant, for now) * register BUTTONPAD property * process GPIO buttons using reportid T19 Input event GPIO mapping is done by the platform data key_map array. key_map[x] should contain the KEY or BTN code to send when processing GPIOx from T19. To specify a GPIO as not an input source, populate with KEY_RESERVED, or 0.

idr_find(), idr_remove() and idr_replace() used to silently ignore the sign bit and perform lookup with the rest of the bits. The weird behavior has been changed such that negative IDs are treated as invalid. As the behavior change was subtle, WARN_ON_ONCE() was added in the hope of determining who's calling idr functions with negative IDs so that they can be examined for problems. Up until now, all two reported cases are ID number coming directly from userland and getting fed into idr_find() and the warnings seem to cause more problems than being helpful. Drop the WARN_ON_ONCE()s.
