      direct-io: don't read inode->i_blkbits multiple times · ab73857e
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Since directio can work on a raw block device, and the block size of the
      device can change under it, we need to do the same thing that
      fs/buffer.c now does: read the block size a single time, using
      ACCESS_ONCE().
      
      Reading it multiple times can get different results, which will then
      confuse the code because it actually encodes the i_blksize in
      relationship to the underlying logical blocksize.

      blockdev: remove bd_block_size_semaphore again · 1e8b3332
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts the block-device direct access code to the previous
      unlocked code, now that fs/buffer.c no longer needs external locking.
      
      With this, fs/block_dev.c is back to the original version, apart from a
      whitespace cleanup that I didn't want to revert.

      fs/buffer.c: make block-size be per-page and protected by the page lock · 45bce8f3
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This makes the buffer size handling be a per-page thing, which allows us
      to not have to worry about locking too much when changing the buffer
      size.  If a page doesn't have buffers, we still need to read the block
      size from the inode, but we can do that with ACCESS_ONCE(), so that even
      if the size is changing, we get a consistent value.
      
      This doesn't convert all functions - many of the buffer functions are
      used purely by filesystems, which in turn results in the buffer size
      being fixed at mount-time.  So they don't have the same consistency
      issues that the raw device access can have.

      Pull MTD fixes from David Woodhouse:
       "The most important part of this is that it fixes a regression in
        Samsung NAND chip detection, introduced by some rework which went into
        3.7.  The initial fix wasn't quite complete, so it's in two parts.  In
        fact the first part is committed twice (Artem committed his own copy
        of the same patch) and I've merged Artem's tree into mine which
        already had that fix.
      
        I'd have recommitted that to make it somewhat cleaner, but figured by
        this point in the release cycle it was better to merge *exactly* the
        commits which have been in linux-next.
      
        If I'd recommitted, I'd also omit the sparse warning fix.  But it's
        there, and it's harmless — just marking one function as 'static' in
        onenand code.
      
        This also includes a couple more fixes for stable: an AB-BA deadlock
        in JFFS2, and an invalid range check in slram."
