      Fix a few incorrectly checked [io_]remap_pfn_range() calls · 7314e613
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Nico Golde reports a few straggling uses of [io_]remap_pfn_range() that
really should use the vm_iomap_memory() helper.  This trivially converts
two of them to the helper, and comments about why the third one really
needs to continue to use remap_pfn_range(), and adds the missing size
check.

      Kconfig: make KOBJECT_RELEASE debugging require timer debugging · 2a999aa0
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Without the timer debugging, the delayed kobject release will just
result in undebuggable oopses if it triggers any latent bugs.  That
doesn't actually help debugging at all.

So make DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE depend on DEBUG_OBJECTS_TIMERS to avoid
having people enable one without the other.

      drm/i915: Fix the PPT fdi lane bifurcate state handling on ivb · 1fbc0d78
      Daniel Vetter authored 
      Originally I've thought that this is leftover hw state dirt from the
BIOS. But after way too much helpless flailing around on my part I've
noticed that the actual bug is when we change the state of an already
active pipe.

For example when we change the fdi lines from 2 to 3 without switching
off outputs in-between we'll never see the crucial on->off transition
in the ->modeset_global_resources hook the current logic relies on.

Patch version 2 got this right by instead also checking whether the
pipe is indeed active. But that in turn broke things when pipes have
been turned off through dpms since the bifurcate enabling is done in
the ->crtc_mode_set callback.

To address this issues discussed with Ville in the patch review move
the setting of the bifurcate bit into the ->crtc_enable hook. That way
we won't wreak havoc with this state when userspace puts all other
outputs into dpms off state. This also moves us forward with our
overall goal to unify the modeset and dpms on paths (which we need to
have to allow runtime pm in the dpms off state).

Unfortunately this requires us to move the bifurcate helpers around a
bit.

Also update the commit message, I've misanalyzed the bug rather badly.

      Merge tag 'perf-urgent-for-mingo' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/acme/linux into perf/urgent

Pull perf/urgent fixes from Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo:

 * Add color overhead for stdio output buffer, which fixes
   --stdio output being chopped up on the hot (red) entries,
   fix from Jiri Olsa.

 * Get 'perf record -g -a sleep 1' working again, removing the
   need for -- separating perf options from the workload, restoring
   ages old behaviour, fix from Jiri Olsa.
   More patches allowing ~/.perfconfig setting up of default
   callchain collecting method ("fp" or "dwarf") left for next
   merge window.

 * Fixup mmap event consumption, where we were acking the
   consumption by writing the tail before actually accessing
   the event, which could lead to using overwritten records
   in things like 'perf record --call-graph'. From Zhouyi Zhou.

      parisc: Do not crash 64bit SMP kernels on machines with >= 4GB RAM · 54e181e0
      Helge Deller authored 
      Since the beginning of the parisc-linux port, sometimes 64bit SMP kernels were
not able to bring up other CPUs than the monarch CPU and instead crashed the
kernel.  The reason was unclear, esp. since it involved various machines (e.g.
J5600, J6750 and SuperDome). Testing showed, that those crashes didn't happened
when less than 4GB were installed, or if a 32bit Linux kernel was booted.

In the end, the fix for those SMP problems is trivial:
During the early phase of the initialization of the CPUs, including the monarch
CPU, the PDC_PSW firmware function to enable WIDE (=64bit) mode is called.
It's documented that this firmware function may clobber various registers, and
one one of those possibly clobbered registers is %cr30 which holds the task
thread info pointer.

Now, if %cr30 would always have been clobbered, then this bug would have been
detected much earlier. But lots of testing finally showed, that - at least for
%cr30 - on some machines only the upper 32bits of the 64bit register suddenly
turned zero after the firmware call.

So, after finding the root cause, the explanation for the various crashes
became clear:
- On 32bit SMP Linux kernels all upper 32bit were zero, so we didn't faced this
  problem.
- Monarch CPUs in 64bit mode always booted sucessfully, because the inital task
  thread info pointer was below 4GB.
- Secondary CPUs booted sucessfully on machines with less than 4GB RAM because
  the upper 32bit were zero anyay.
- Secondary CPus failed to boot if we had more than 4GB RAM and the task thread
  info pointer was located above the 4GB boundary.

Finally, the patch to fix this problem is trivial by saving the %cr30 register
before the firmware call and restoring it afterwards.

      ALSA: hda - Fix silent headphone on Thinkpads with AD1984A codec · 1ac32930
      Takashi Iwai authored 
      AD1984A codec has a couple of pins with EAPD controls, and the generic
codec driver tries to turn each of them on/off depending on the pin
active state.  However, Thinkpads seem to use EAPD of the speaker pin
as a master EAPD for controlling the mute of all outputs, including
the headphone.  This results in the dead headphone output via the
headphone plugging because it mutes the speaker and turns off EAPD.

The fix is to simply add spec->gen.keep_on_eapd flag.

[This is a regression fix on 3.12 where we moved the AD codec parser
 to the generic parser.  3.11 and earlier didn't show this problem
 because still static quirks have been used.]
