       "This is a big batch.  From Ilya we have:
      
         - rbd support for more than ~250 mapped devices (now uses same scheme
           that SCSI does for device major/minor numbering)
         - crush updates for new mapping behaviors (will be needed for coming
           erasure coding support, among other things)
         - preliminary support for tiered storage pools
      
        There is also a big series fixing a pile cephfs bugs with clustered
        MDSs from Yan Zheng, ACL support for cephfs from Guangliang Zhao, ceph
        fscache improvements from Li Wang, improved behavior when we get
        ENOSPC from Josh Durgin, some readv/writev improvements from
        Majianpeng, and the usual mix of small cleanups"

      PAGE_CACHE_SIZE is unsigned long on all architectures, however size_t
      is either unsigned int or unsigned long.  Rather than change format
      strings, cast PAGE_CACHE_SIZE to size_t to be in line with dout()s in
      ceph_page_mkwrite().

      Pull powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
       "So here's my next branch for powerpc.  A bit late as I was on vacation
        last week.  It's mostly the same stuff that was in next already, I
        just added two patches today which are the wiring up of lockref for
        powerpc, which for some reason fell through the cracks last time and
        is trivial.
      
        The highlights are, in addition to a bunch of bug fixes:
      
         - Reworked Machine Check handling on kernels running without a
           hypervisor (or acting as a hypervisor).  Provides hooks to handle
           some errors in real mode such as TLB errors, handle SLB errors,
           etc...
      
         - Support for retrieving memory error information from the service
           processor on IBM servers running without a hypervisor and routing
           them to the memory poison infrastructure.
      
         - _PAGE_NUMA support on server processors
      
         - 32-bit BookE relocatable kernel support
      
         - FSL e6500 hardware tablewalk support
      
         - A bunch of new/revived board support
      
         - FSL e6500 deeper idle states and altivec powerdown support
      
        You'll notice a generic mm change here, it has been acked by the
        relevant authorities and is a pre-req for our _PAGE_NUMA support"

      Pull powerpc mremap fix from Ben Herrenschmidt:
       "This is the patch that I had sent after -rc8 and which we decided to
        wait before merging.  It's based on a different tree than my -next
        branch (it needs some pre-reqs that were in -rc4 or so while my -next
        is based on -rc1) so I left it as a separate branch for your to pull.
        It's identical to the request I did 2 or 3 weeks back.
      
        This fixes crashes in mremap with THP on powerpc.
      
        The fix however requires a small change in the generic code.  It moves
        a condition into a helper we can override from the arch which is
        harmless, but it *also* slightly changes the order of the set_pmd and
        the withdraw & deposit, which should be fine according to Kirill (who
        wrote that code) but I agree -rc8 is a bit late...
      
        It was acked by Kirill and Andrew told me to just merge it via powerpc"

      firmware/google: drop 'select EFI' to avoid recursive dependency · c2218e26
      Ard Biesheuvel authored
      The GOOGLE_SMI Kconfig symbol depends on DMI and selects EFI.  This
      causes problems on other archs when introducing DMI support that depends
      on EFI, as it results in a recursive dependency:
      
        arch/arm/Kconfig:1845:error: recursive dependency detected!
        arch/arm/Kconfig:1845:	symbol DMI depends on EFI
      
      Fix by changing the 'select EFI' to a 'depends on EFI'.

      compat: fix sys_fanotify_mark · 592f6b84
      Heiko Carstens authored
      Commit 91c2e0bc ("unify compat fanotify_mark(2), switch to
      COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE") added a new unified compat fanotify_mark syscall
      to be used by all architectures.
      
      Unfortunately the unified version merges the split mask parameter in a
      wrong way: the lower and higher word got swapped.
      
      This was discovered with glibc's tst-fanotify test case.

      Functions like this one are evil:
      
      void foo()
      {
      	...
      }
      
      Because these functions allow variadic arguments without
      checking the arguments at all.

      mm/migrate.c: fix setting of cpupid on page migration twice against normal page · a3978a51
      Wanpeng Li authored
      Commit 7851a45c ("mm: numa: Copy cpupid on page migration") copies
      over the cpupid at page migration time.  It is unnecessary to set it
      again in alloc_misplaced_dst_page().

      Possible speed improvement of __do_softirq() by using ffs() instead of
      using a while loop with an & 1 test then single bit shift.

      kernel/kexec.c: use vscnprintf() instead of vsnprintf() in vmcoreinfo_append_str() · a19428e5
      Chen Gang authored
      vsnprintf() may let 'r' larger than sizeof(buf), in this case, if 'r' is
      also less than "vmcoreinfo_max_size - vmcoreinfo_size" (left size of
      destination buffer), next memcpy() will read the unexpected addresses.

      splice: fix unexpected size truncation · 53e0ee9f
      Xiao Guangrong authored
      @splice_desc.total_len is 32 bit(unsigned int) which is used to store the
      size passed from userspace which is 64 bit(size_t) so that the size is
      unexpectedly truncated
      
      That means vmsplice can not work if the size passed from userspace is >=
      4G, for example, we noticed in vmsplice, splice-reader does not do
      anything and splice-writer is waiting for available buffer forever if the
      size is 4G
      
      Fix it by extending @splice_desc.total_len to 64 bits as well

      ipc: fix compat msgrcv with negative msgtyp · e7ca2552
      Mateusz Guzik authored
      Compat function takes msgtyp argument as u32 and passes it down to
      do_msgrcv which results in casting to long, thus the sign is lost and we
      get a big positive number instead.
      
      Cast the argument to signed type before passing it down.

      ipc,msg: document barriers · ffa571da
      Davidlohr Bueso authored
      Both expunge_all() and pipeline_send() rely on both a nil msg value and
      a full barrier to guarantee the correct ordering when waking up a task.
      
      While its counterpart at the receiving end is well documented for the
      lockless recv algorithm, we still need to document these specific
      smp_mb() calls.
