      Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
       "On the kernel side the main changes in this cycle were:
      
         - Add Intel Kaby Lake CPU support (Srinivas Pandruvada)
      
         - AMD uncore driver updates for fam17 (Janakarajan Natarajan)
      
         - Intel/PT updates and core events optimizations and cleanups
           (Alexander Shishkin)
      
         - cgroups events fixes (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
      
         - kprobes improvements (Masami Hiramatsu)
      
         - ... plus misc fixes and updates.
      
        On the tooling side the main changes were:
      
         - Support clang build in tools/{perf,lib/{bpf,traceevent,api}} with
           CC=clang, to, for instance, take advantage of better warnings
           (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo):
      
         - Introduce the 'delta-abs' 'perf diff' compute method, that orders
           the histogram entries by the absolute value of the percentage delta
           for a function in two perf.data files, i.e. the functions that
           changed the most (increase or decrease in samples) comes first
           (Namhyung Kim)
      
         - Add support for parsing Intel uncore vendor event files and add
           uncore vendor events for the Intel server processors (Haswell,
           Broadwell, IvyBridge), Xeon Phi (Knights Landing) and Broadwell DE
           (Andi Kleen)
      
         - Introduce 'perf ftrace' a perf front end to the kernel's ftrace
           function and function_graph tracer, defaulting to the
           "function_graph" tracer, more work will be done in reviving this
           effort, forward porting it from its initial patch submission
           (Namhyung Kim)
      
         - Add 'e' and 'c' hotkeys to expand/collapse call chains for a single
           hist entry in the 'perf report' and 'perf top' TUI (Jiri Olsa)
      
         - Account thread wait time (off CPU time) separately: sleep, iowait
           and preempt, based on the prev_state of the last event, show the
           breakdown when using "perf sched timehist --state" (Namhyumg Kim)
      
         - Add more triggers to switch the output file (perf.data.TIMESTAMP).
      
           Now, in addition to switching to a different output file when
           receiving a SIGUSR2, one can also specify file size and time based
           triggers:
      
                 perf record -a --switch-output=signal
      
           is equivalent to what we had before:
      
                 perf record -a --switch-output
      
           While we can also ask for the file to be "sliced" by size, taking
           into account that that will happen only when we get woken up by the
           kernel, i.e. one has to take into account the --mmap-pages (the
           size of the perf mmap ring buffer):
      
                 perf record -a --switch-output=2G
      
           will break the perf.data output into multiple files limited to 2GB
           of samples, right when generating the output.
      
           For time based samples, alert() will be used, so to have 1 minute
           limited perf.data output files:
      
                perf record -a --switch-output=1m
      
           (Jiri Olsa)
      
         - Improve 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
      
         - 'perf kallsyms' toy tool to look for extended symbol information on
           the running kernel and demonstrate the machine/thread/symbol APIs
           for use in other tools, such as 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de
           Melo)
      
         - ... plus tons of other changes, see the shortlog and Git log for
           details"

      [ Kudos to Brian for sending pull request a week early:
      
         "I refuse to acknowledge the existence of 4.10-rc8 and am therefore
          sending our MTD changes for 4.11 now"

      Fix missing sanity check in /dev/sg · 137d01df
      Al Viro authored
      What happens is that a write to /dev/sg is given a request with non-zero
      ->iovec_count combined with zero ->dxfer_len.  Or with ->dxferp pointing
      to an array full of empty iovecs.
      
      Having write permission to /dev/sg shouldn't be equivalent to the
      ability to trigger BUG_ON() while holding spinlocks...
      
      Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.
      
      [ The BUG_ON() got changed to a WARN_ON_ONCE(), but this fixes the
        underlying issue.  - Linus ]

      scsi: don't BUG_ON() empty DMA transfers · fd3fc0b4
      Johannes Thumshirn authored
      Don't crash the machine just because of an empty transfer. Use WARN_ON()
      combined with returning an error.
      
      Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.
      
      [ Changed to "WARN_ON_ONCE()". Al has a patch that should fix the root
        cause, but a BUG_ON() is not acceptable in any case, and a WARN_ON()
        might still be a cause of excessive log spamming.
      
        NOTE! If this warning ever triggers, we may end up leaking resources,
        since this doesn't bother to try to clean the command up. So this
        WARN_ON_ONCE() triggering does imply real problems. But BUG_ON() is
        much worse.
      
        People really need to stop using BUG_ON() for "this shouldn't ever
        happen". It makes pretty much any bug worse.     - Linus ]
