      ipmi_si: Only schedule continuously in the thread in maintenance mode · 340ff31a
      Corey Minyard authored
      ipmi_thread() uses back-to-back schedule() to poll for command
      completion which, on some machines, can push up CPU consumption and
      heavily tax the scheduler locks leading to noticeable overall
      performance degradation.
      
      This was originally added so firmware updates through IPMI would
      complete in a timely manner.  But we can't kill the scheduler
      locks for that one use case.
      
      Instead, only run schedule() continuously in maintenance mode,
      where firmware updates should run.

      exit: make setting exit_state consistent · 30b692d3
      Christian Brauner authored
      Since commit b191d649 ("pidfd: fix a poll race when setting exit_state")
      we unconditionally set exit_state to EXIT_ZOMBIE before calling into
      do_notify_parent(). This was done to eliminate a race when querying
      exit_state in do_notify_pidfd().
      Back then we decided to do the absolute minimal thing to fix this and
      not touch the rest of the exit_notify() function where exit_state is
      set.
      Since this fix has not caused any issues change the setting of
      exit_state to EXIT_DEAD in the autoreap case to account for the fact hat
      exit_state is set to EXIT_ZOMBIE unconditionally. This fix was planned
      but also explicitly requested in [1] and makes the whole code more
      consistent.

      Pull locking fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "A set of locking fixes:
      
         - Address the fallout of the rwsem rework. Missing ACQUIREs and a
           sanity check to prevent a use-after-free
      
         - Add missing checks for unitialized mutexes when mutex debugging is
           enabled.
      
         - Remove the bogus code in the generic SMP variant of
           arch_futex_atomic_op_inuser()
      
         - Fixup the #ifdeffery in lockdep to prevent compile warnings"
