      Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
       "Here's a pull request for 4.11-rc, fixing a set of issues mostly
        centered around the new scheduling framework. These have been brewing
        for a while, but split up into what we absolutely need in 4.11, and
        what we can defer until 4.12. These are well tested, on both single
        queue and multiqueue setups, and with and without shared tags. They
        fix several hangs that have happened in testing.
      
        This is obviously larger than I would have preferred at this point in
        time, but I don't think we can shave much off this and still get the
        desired results.
      
        In detail, this pull request contains:
      
         - a set of five fixes for NVMe, mostly from Christoph and one from
           Roland.
      
         - a series from Bart, fixing issues with dm-mq and SCSI shared tags
           and scheduling. Note that one of those patches commit messages may
           read like an optimization, but it is in fact an important fix for
           queue restarts in particular.
      
         - a series from Omar, most importantly fixing a hang with multiple
           hardware queues when we fail to get a driver tag. Another important
           fix in there is for resizing hardware queues, which nbd does when
           handling multiple sockets for one connection.
      
         - fixing an imbalance in putting the ctx for hctx request allocations
           from Minchan"

      sysfs: be careful of error returns from ops->show() · c8a139d0
      NeilBrown authored
      ops->show() can return a negative error code.
      Commit 65da3484 ("sysfs: correctly handle short reads on PREALLOC attrs.")
      (in v4.4) caused this to be stored in an unsigned 'size_t' variable, so errors
      would look like large numbers.
      As a result, if an error is returned, sysfs_kf_read() will return the
      value of 'count', typically 4096.
      
      Commit 17d0774f ("sysfs: correctly handle read offset on PREALLOC attrs")
      (in v4.8) extended this error to use the unsigned large 'len' as a size for
      memmove().
      Consequently, if ->show returns an error, then the first read() on the
      sysfs file will return 4096 and could return uninitialized memory to
      user-space.
      If the application performs a subsequent read, this will trigger a memmove()
      with extremely large count, and is likely to crash the machine is bizarre ways.
      
      This bug can currently only be triggered by reading from an md
      sysfs attribute declared with __ATTR_PREALLOC() during the
      brief period between when mddev_put() deletes an mddev from
      the ->all_mddevs list, and when mddev_delayed_delete() - which is
      scheduled on a workqueue - completes.
      Before this, an error won't be returned by the ->show()
      After this, the ->show() won't be called.
      
      I can reproduce it reliably only by putting delay like
      	usleep_range(500000,700000);
      early in mddev_delayed_delete(). Then after creating an
      md device md0 run
        echo clear > /sys/block/md0/md/array_state; cat /sys/block/md0/md/array_state
      
      The bug can be triggered without the usleep.

      staging: android: ashmem: lseek failed due to no FMODE_LSEEK. · 97fbfef6
      Shuxiao Zhang authored
      vfs_llseek will check whether the file mode has
      FMODE_LSEEK, no return failure. But ashmem can be
      lseek, so add FMODE_LSEEK to ashmem file.
      
      Comment From Greg Hackmann:
      	ashmem_llseek() passes the llseek() call through to the backing
      	shmem file.  91360b02 ("ashmem: use vfs_llseek()") changed
      	this from directly calling the file's llseek() op into a VFS
      	layer call.  This also adds a check for the FMODE_LSEEK bit, so
      	without that bit ashmem_llseek() now always fails with -ESPIPE.
