      Fixes for omap variants
      
      Few fixes for ti-sysc interconnect target module driver for no-idle
      quirks that caused nfsroot to fail on some dra7 boards.
      
      And let's fixes to get LCD working again for logicpd board that got
      broken a while back with removal of panel-dpi driver. We need to now
      use generic CONFIG_DRM_PANEL_SIMPLE instead.

      Merge branch 'hugepage-fallbacks' (hugepatch patches from David Rientjes) · edf445ad
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Merge hugepage allocation updates from David Rientjes:
       "We (mostly Linus, Andrea, and myself) have been discussing offlist how
        to implement a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages on NUMA
        platforms.
      
        With these reverts in place, the page allocator will happily allocate
        a remote hugepage immediately rather than try to make a local hugepage
        available. This incurs a substantial performance degradation when
        memory compaction would have otherwise made a local hugepage
        available.
      
        This series reverts those reverts and attempts to propose a more sane
        default allocation strategy specifically for hugepages. Andrea
        acknowledges this is likely to fix the swap storms that he originally
        reported that resulted in the patches that removed __GFP_THISNODE from
        hugepage allocations.
      
        The immediate goal is to return 5.3 to the behavior the kernel has
        implemented over the past several years so that remote hugepages are
        not immediately allocated when local hugepages could have been made
        available because the increased access latency is untenable.
      
        The next goal is to introduce a sane default allocation strategy for
        hugepages allocations in general regardless of the configuration of
        the system so that we prevent thrashing of local memory when
        compaction is unlikely to succeed and can prefer remote hugepages over
        remote native pages when the local node is low on memory."
      
      Note on timing: this reverts the hugepage VM behavior changes that got
      introduced fairly late in the 5.3 cycle, and that fixed a huge
      performance regression for certain loads that had been around since
      4.18.
      
      Andrea had this note:
      
       "The regression of 4.18 was that it was taking hours to start a VM
        where 3.10 was only taking a few seconds, I reported all the details
        on lkml when it was finally tracked down in August 2018.
      
           https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20180820032640.9896-2-aarcange@redhat.com/
      
        __GFP_THISNODE in MADV_HUGEPAGE made the above enterprise vfio
        workload degrade like in the "current upstream" above. And it still
        would have been that bad as above until 5.3-rc5"
      
      where the bad behavior ends up happening as you fill up a local node,
      and without that change, you'd get into the nasty swap storm behavior
      due to compaction working overtime to make room for more memory on the
      nodes.
      
      As a result 5.3 got the two performance fix reverts in rc5.
      
      However, David Rientjes then noted that those performance fixes in turn
      regressed performance for other loads - although not quite to the same
      degree.  He suggested reverting the reverts and instead replacing them
      with two small changes to how hugepage allocations are done (patch
      descriptions rephrased by me):
      
       - "avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed": just admit
         that the allocation failed when you're trying to allocate a huge-page
         and compaction wasn't successful.
      
       - "allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised": when that
         node-local huge-page allocation failed, retry without forcing the
         local node.
      
      but by then I judged it too late to replace the fixes for a 5.3 release.
      So 5.3 was released with behavior that harked back to the pre-4.18 logic.
      
      But now we're in the merge window for 5.4, and we can see if this
      alternate model fixes not just the horrendous swap storm behavior, but
      also restores the performance regression that the late reverts caused.
      
      Fingers crossed.
