The prepare_for_access_response() function checks whether
group->fanotify_data.bypass_perm is set.  However this test can never be
true because prepare_for_access_response() is called only from
fanotify_read() which means fanotify group is alive with an active fd
while bypass_perm is set from fanotify_release() when all file
descriptors pointing to the group are closed and the group is going
away.

Currently if kmemleak is disabled, the kmemleak objects can never be
freed, no matter if it's disabled by a user or due to fatal errors.

Those objects can be a big waste of memory.

In the presence of memoryless nodes, numa_node_id() will return the
current CPU's NUMA node, but that may not be where we expect to allocate
from memory from.  Instead, we should rely on the fallback code in the
memory allocator itself, by using NUMA_NO_NODE.  Also, when calling
kthread_create_on_node(), use the nearest node with memory to the cpu in
question, rather than the node it is running on.

After commit 839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool
implementation with unbound workqueue") when device is removed while we
are writing to it we crash in bdi_writeback_workfn() ->
set_worker_desc() because bdi->dev is NULL.

This can happen because even though bdi_unregister() cancels all pending
flushing work, nothing really prevents new ones from being queued from
balance_dirty_pages() or other places.

Fix the problem by clearing BDI_registered bit in bdi_unregister() and
checking it before scheduling of any flushing work.

bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() used the mod_delayed_work() function to
schedule work to writeback dirty inodes.  The problem with this is that
it can delay work that is scheduled for immediate execution, such as the
work from sync_inodes_sb().  This can happen since mod_delayed_work()
can now steal work from a work_queue.  This fixes the problem by using
queue_delayed_work() instead.  This is a regression caused by commit
839a8e86 ("writeback: replace custom worker pool implementation with
unbound workqueue").

The reason that this causes a problem is that laptop-mode will change
the delay, dirty_writeback_centisecs, to 60000 (10 minutes) by default.
In the case that bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() races with
sync_inodes_sb(), sync will be stopped for 10 minutes and trigger a hung
task.  Even if dirty_writeback_centisecs is not long enough to cause a
hung task, we still don't want to delay sync for that long.

We fix the problem by using queue_delayed_work() when we want to
schedule writeback sometime in future.  This function doesn't change the
timer if it is already armed.

For the same reason, we also change bdi_writeback_workfn() to
immediately queue the work again in the case that the work_list is not
empty.  The same problem can happen if the sync work is run on the
rescue worker.

     creating any named objects which really cannot be executed in

     Brandewie (original patch from Thomas Gleixner).

     resulting from race conditions.  From Srivatsa S Bhat and Viresh

  (non-virtualized).

  It adds support for the "fast sleep" feature of the processor which
  provides higher power savings than our usual "nap" mode but at the
  cost of losing the timers while asleep, and thus exploits the new
  timer broadcast framework to work around that limitation.

  It's based on a tip timer tree that you seem to have already merged"

Pull main powerpc updates from Ben Herrenschmidt:
 "This time around, the powerpc merges are going to be a little bit more
  complicated than usual.

  This is the main pull request with most of the work for this merge
  window.  I will describe it a bit more further down.

  There is some additional cpuidle driver work, however I haven't
  included it in this tree as it depends on some work in tip/timer-core
  which Thomas accidentally forgot to put in a topic branch.  Since I
  didn't want to carry all of that tip timer stuff in powerpc -next, I
  setup a separate branch on top of Thomas tree with just that cpuidle
  driver in it, and Stephen has been carrying that in next separately
  for a while now.  I'll send a separate pull request for it.

  Additionally, two new pieces in this tree add users for a sysfs API
  that Tejun and Greg have been deprecating in drivers-core-next.
  Thankfully Greg reverted the patch that removes the old API so this
  merge can happen cleanly, but once merged, I will send a patch
  adjusting our new code to the new API so that Greg can send you the
  removal patch.

  Now as for the content of this branch, we have a lot of perf work for
  power8 new counters including support for our new "nest" counters
  (also called 24x7) under pHyp (not natively yet).

  We have new functionality when running under the OPAL firmware
  (non-virtualized or KVM host), such as access to the firmware error
  logs and service processor dumps, system parameters and sensors, along
  with a hwmon driver for the latter.

  There's also a bunch of bug fixes accross the board, some LE fixes,
  and a nice set of selftests for validating our various types of copy
  loops.

  On the Freescale side, we see mostly new chip/board revisions, some
  clock updates, better support for machine checks and debug exceptions,
  etc..."

Merge branch 'x86-nuke-platforms-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull x86 old platform removal from Peter Anvin:
 "This patchset removes support for several completely obsolete
  platforms, where the maintainers either have completely vanished or
  acked the removal.  For some of them it is questionable if there even
  exists functional specimens of the hardware"

Geert Uytterhoeven apparently thought this was a April Fool's pull request ;)

Pull compat time conversion changes from Peter Anvin:
 "Despite the branch name this is really neither an x86 nor an
  x32-specific patchset, although it the implementation of the
  discussions that followed the x32 security hole a few months ago.

  This removes get/put_compat_timespec/val() and replaces them with
  compat_get/put_timespec/val() which are savvy as to the current status
  of COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME.

  It removes several unused and/or incorrect/misleading functions (like
  compat_put_timeval_convert which doesn't in fact do any conversion)
  and also replaces several open-coded implementations what is now
  called compat_convert_timespec() with that function"

Pull x86 vdso changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This is the revamp of the 32-bit vdso and the associated cleanups.

  This adds timekeeping support to the 32-bit vdso that we already have
  in the 64-bit vdso.  Although 32-bit x86 is legacy, it is likely to
  remain in the embedded space for a very long time to come.

  This removes the traditional COMPAT_VDSO support; the configuration
  variable is reused for simply removing the 32-bit vdso, which will
  produce correct results but obviously suffer a performance penalty.
  Only one beta version of glibc was affected, but that version was
  unfortunately included in one OpenSUSE release.

  This is not the end of the vdso cleanups.  Stefani and Andy have
  agreed to continue work for the next kernel cycle; in fact Andy has
  already produced another set of cleanups that came too late for this
  cycle.

  An incidental, but arguably important, change is that this ensures
  that unused space in the VVAR page is properly zeroed.  It wasn't
  before, and would contain whatever garbage was left in memory by BIOS
  or the bootloader.  Since the VVAR page is accessible to user space
  this had the potential of information leaks"

Pull x86 boot changes from Peter Anvin:
 "This patchset is a set of cleanups aiming at librarize some of the
  common code from the boot environments.  We currently have three
  different "little environments" (boot, boot/compressed, and
  realmode/rm) in x86, and we are likely to soon get a fourth one
  (kexec/purgatory, which will have to be integrated in the kernel to
  support secure kexec).  This is primarily a cleanup in the
  anticipation of the latter.

  While Vivek implemented this, he ran into some bugs, in particular the
  memcmp implementation for when gcc punts from using the builtin would
  have a misnamed symbol, causing compilation errors if we were ever
  unlucky enough that gcc didn't want to inline the test"

Commit 2223f6f6 "x86: Clean up dumpstack_64.c code" changed
the irq_stack processing a little from what it was before.
The irq_stack_end variable needed to be cleared after its first
use. By setting irq_stack to the per cpu irq_stack and passing
that to analyze_stack(), and then clearing it after it is processed,
we can get back the original behavior.

Commit 2223f6f6 "x86: Clean up dumpstack_64.c code" moved the used
variable to a local within the loop, but the in_exception_stack()
depended on being non-volatile with the ability to change it.

By always re-initializing the "used" variable to zero, it would cause
the in_exception_stack() to return the same thing each time, and
cause the dump_stack loop to go into an infinite loop.
