      This reverts commit 232de514 ("ACPI / battery: fix wrong value of
      capacity_now reported when fully charged")
      
      There is nothing wrong or unexpected about 'capacity_now' increasing above
      the last 'full_charge_capacity' value. Different charging cycles will cause
      'full_charge_capacity' to vary, both up and down.  Good battery firmwares
      will update 'full_charge_capacity' when the current charging cycle is
      complete, increasing it if necessary. It might even go above
      'design_capacity' on a fresh and healthy battery.
      
      Capping 'capacity_now' to 'full_charge_capacity' is plain wrong, and
      printing a warning if this doesn't happen to match the 'design_capacity'
      is both annoying and terribly wrong.
      
      This results in bogus warnings on perfectly working systems/firmwares:
      
       [Firmware Bug]: battery: reported current charge level (39800) is higher than reported maximum charge level (39800).
      
      and wrong values being reported for 'capacity_now' and
      'full_charge_capacity' after the warning has been triggered.

      This reverts commit d719870b ("ACPI / battery: Fix warning message in
      acpi_battery_get_state()")
      
      Capping 'capacity_now' to 'full_charge_capacity' is plain wrong. If this
      is necessary to work around some buggy firmware, then the workaround needs
      protection against being applied to working firmwares.
      
      Good battery firmwares will allow 'capacity_now' to increase above
      'full_charge_capacity', and will update the latter when the battery
      is fully charged.  By capping 'capacity_now' we lose accurate capacity
      reporting until charging is complete whenever 'full_charge_capacity'
      needs to be increased.

       "The fixes all address recently discovered data corruption issues.
      
        The original Direct IO issue was discovered by Chris Mason @ Facebook
        on a production workload which mixed buffered reads with direct reads
        and writes IO to the same file.  The fix for that exposed other issues
        with page invalidation (exposed by millions of fsx operations) failing
        due to dirty buffers beyond EOF.
      
        Finally, the collapse_range code could also cause problems due to
        racing writeback changing the extent map while it was being shifted
        around.  The commits for that problem are simple mitigation fixes that
        prevent the problem from occuring.  A more robust fix for 3.18 that
        addresses the underlying problem is currently being worked on by
        Brian.
      
        Summary of fixes:
         - a direct IO read/buffered read data corruption
         - the associated fallout from the DIO data corruption fix
         - collapse range bugs that are potential data corruption issues"

      timekeeping: Update timekeeper before updating vsyscall and pvclock · 9bf2419f
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      The update_walltime() code works on the shadow timekeeper to make the
      seqcount protected region as short as possible. But that update to the
      shadow timekeeper does not update all timekeeper fields because it's
      sufficient to do that once before it becomes life. One of these fields
      is tkr.base_mono. That stays stale in the shadow timekeeper unless an
      operation happens which copies the real timekeeper to the shadow.
      
      The update function is called after the update calls to vsyscall and
      pvclock. While not correct, it did not cause any problems because none
      of the invoked update functions used base_mono.
      
      commit cbcf2dd3 (x86: kvm: Make kvm_get_time_and_clockread()
      nanoseconds based) changed that in the kvm pvclock update function, so
      the stale mono_base value got used and caused kvm-clock to malfunction.
      
      Put the update where it belongs and fix the issue.
