       "These are four patches for three construction sites:
      
         - Fix register decoding for the combination of multi-core processors
           and multi-threading.
      
         - Two more fixes that are part of the ongoing DECstation resurrection
           work.  One of these touches a DECstation-only network driver.
      
         - Finally Markos' trivial build fix for the AP/SP support.
      
        (With this applied now all MIPS defconfigs are building again)"

      partitions/efi: loosen check fot pmbr size in lba · 6b02fa59
      Davidlohr Bueso authored
      Matt found that commit 27a7c642 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr
      size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot.  The
      reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of
      the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA.  While most disk
      partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics,
      Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit
      limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1].
      
      Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk
      or 0xFFFFFFFF.  No tool in its right mind would set it to any value
      other than these.

      cifs: Avoid calling unlock_page() twice in cifs_readpage() when using fscache · 466bd31b
      Sachin Prabhu authored
      When reading a single page with cifs_readpage(), we make a call to
      fscache_read_or_alloc_page() which once done, asynchronously calls
      the completion function cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete(). This
      completion function unlocks the page once it has been populated from
      cache. The module then attempts to unlock the page a second time in
      cifs_readpage() which leads to warning messages.
      
      In case of a successful call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() we should skip
      the second unlock_page() since this will be called by the
      cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete() once the page has been populated by
      fscache.
      
      With the modifications to cifs_readpage_worker(), we will need to re-grab the
      page lock in cifs_write_begin().
      
      The problem was first noticed when testing new fscache patches for cifs.

      cifs: Do not take a reference to the page in cifs_readpage_worker() · a9e9b7bc
      Sachin Prabhu authored
      We do not need to take a reference to the pagecache in
      cifs_readpage_worker() since the calling function will have already
      taken one before passing the pointer to the page as an argument to the
      function.
