25a70e38cd Input: eeti_ts - allow active high irq lines
This adds a struct eeti_ts_platform_data which currently holds only one
value to specify the interrupt polarity.

The driver has a fallback if no platform data is passed in via the
i2c_board_info, so no regression is caused.

7f453c24b9 perf_counter: PERF_SAMPLE_ID and inherited counters
Anton noted that for inherited counters the counter-id as provided by
PERF_SAMPLE_ID isn't mappable to the id found through PERF_RECORD_ID
because each inherited counter gets its own id.

His suggestion was to always return the parent counter id, since that
is the primary counter id as exposed. However, these inherited
counters have a unique identifier so that events like
PERF_EVENT_PERIOD and PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE can be specific about which
counter gets modified, which is important when trying to normalize the
sample streams.

This patch removes PERF_EVENT_PERIOD in favour of PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD,
which is more useful anyway, since changing periods became a lot more
common than initially thought -- rendering PERF_EVENT_PERIOD the less
useful solution (also, PERF_SAMPLE_PERIOD reports the more accurate
value, since it reports the value used to trigger the overflow,
whereas PERF_EVENT_PERIOD simply reports the requested period changed,
which might only take effect on the next cycle).

This still leaves us PERF_EVENT_THROTTLE to consider, but since that
_should_ be a rare occurrence, and linking it to a primary id is the
most useful bit to diagnose the problem, we introduce a
PERF_SAMPLE_STREAM_ID, for those few cases where the full
reconstruction is important.

[Does change the ABI a little, but I see no other way out]

9ba5f005c9 softirq: introduce tasklet_hrtimer infrastructure
commit ca109491f (hrtimer: removing all ur callback modes) moved all
hrtimer callbacks into hard interrupt context when high resolution
timers are active. That breaks code which relied on the assumption
that the callback happens in softirq context.

Provide a generic infrastructure which combines tasklets and hrtimers
together to provide an in-softirq hrtimer experience.

591d2fb02e genirq: Delegate irq affinity setting to the irq thread
irq_set_thread_affinity() calls set_cpus_allowed_ptr() which might
sleep, but irq_set_thread_affinity() is called with desc->lock held
and can be called from hard interrupt context as well. The code has
another bug as it does not hold a ref on the task struct as required
by set_cpus_allowed_ptr().

Just set the IRQTF_AFFINITY bit in action->thread_flags. The next time
the thread runs it migrates itself. Solves all of the above problems
nicely.

Add kerneldoc to irq_set_thread_affinity() while at it.

This patch allows tweaking the behaviour of GPIO_STATUS register
shift quirk that's in wm97xx-core. The problem with GPIO_STATUS
register being shifted by one doesn't appear on all hardware it
seems and causes problems with accelerated touchscreen drivers on
Palm hardware. Therefore an accelerated touchscreen driver can select
if the shift is/isn't happening on the hardware.

6301cb95c1 sched: fix nr_uninterruptible accounting of frozen tasks really
commit e3c8ca8336 (sched: do not count frozen tasks toward load) broke
the nr_uninterruptible accounting on freeze/thaw. On freeze the task
is excluded from accounting with a check for (task->flags &
PF_FROZEN), but that flag is cleared before the task is thawed. So
while we prevent that the task with state TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE
is accounted to nr_uninterruptible on freeze we decrement
nr_uninterruptible on thaw.

Use a separate flag which is handled by the freezing task itself. Set
it before calling the scheduler with TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state and
clear it after we return from frozen state.

5c9228f0cf vt: drop bootmem/slab memory distinction
Bootmem is not used for the vt screen buffer anymore as slab is now
available at the time the console is initialized.

Get rid of the now superfluous distinction between slab and bootmem,
it's always slab.

This also fixes a kmalloc leak which Catalin described thusly:

Commit a5f4f52e ("vt: use kzalloc() instead of the bootmem allocator")
replaced the alloc_bootmem() with kzalloc() but didn't set vc_kmalloced to
1 and the memory block is later leaked.  The corresponding kmemleak trace:

f9fabcb58a personality: fix PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID
We have found that the current PER_CLEAR_ON_SETID mask on Linux doesn't
include neither ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT, nor MMAP_PAGE_ZERO.

The current mask is READ_IMPLIES_EXEC|ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE.

We believe it is important to add MMAP_PAGE_ZERO, because by using this
personality it is possible to have the first page mapped inside a
process running as setuid root.  This could be used in those scenarios:

 - Exploiting a NULL pointer dereference issue in a setuid root binary
 - Bypassing the mmap_min_addr restrictions of the Linux kernel: by
   running a setuid binary that would drop privileges before giving us
   control back (for instance by loading a user-supplied library), we
   could get the first page mapped in a process we control.  By further
   using mremap and mprotect on this mapping, we can then completely
   bypass the mmap_min_addr restrictions.

Less importantly, we believe ADDR_COMPAT_LAYOUT should also be added
since on x86 32bits it will in practice disable most of the address
space layout randomization (only the stack will remain randomized).

   - copy user space buffer to kernel (LLD) buffer
   - do SCSI command which is assumed to be of the DATA_IN
     (data from device) variety. This would overwrite
     some or all of the kernel buffer
   - copy kernel (LLD) buffer back to the user space.

The idea was to detect short reads by filling the original
user space buffer with some marker bytes ("0xec" it would
seem in this report). The "resid" value is a better way
of detecting short reads but that was only added this century
and requires co-operation from the LLD.
=

This patch changes the block layer mapping API to support this
semantics. This simply adds another field to struct rq_map_data and
enables __bio_copy_iov() to copy data from user space even with READ
requests.

It's better to add the flags field and kills null_mapped and the new
from_user fields in struct rq_map_data but that approach makes it
difficult to send this patch to stable trees because st and osst
drivers use struct rq_map_data (they were converted to use the block
layer in 2.6.29 and 2.6.30). Well, I should clean up the block layer
mapping API.

f9f868dbcc timer stats: fix quick check optimization
git commit 507e1231 "timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to
avoid function calls" added one wrong check so that one unnecessary
function call isn't elimated.

time_stats_account_hrtimer() checks if timer->start_pid isn't
initialized in order to find out if timer_stats_update_stats() should
be called.  However start_pid is initialized with -1 instead of 0, so
that the function call always happens.

Check timer->start_site like in timer_stats_account_timer() to fix
this.

6ff7041dbf hrtimer: Fix migration expiry check
The timer migration expiry check should prevent the migration of a
timer to another CPU when the timer expires before the next event is
scheduled on the other CPU. Migrating the timer might delay it because
we can not reprogram the clock event device on the other CPU. But the
code implementing that check has two flaws:

- for !HIGHRES the check compares the expiry value with the clock
  events device expiry value which is wrong for CLOCK_REALTIME based
  timers.

- the check is racy. It holds the hrtimer base lock of the target CPU,
  but the clock event device expiry value can be modified
  nevertheless, e.g. by an timer interrupt firing.

The !HIGHRES case is easy to fix as we can enqueue the timer on the
cpu which was selected by the load balancer. It runs the idle
balancing code once per jiffy anyway. So the maximum delay for the
timer is the same as when we keep the tick on the current cpu going.

In the HIGHRES case we can get the next expiry value from the hrtimer
cpu_base of the target CPU and serialize the update with the cpu_base
lock. This moves the lock section in hrtimer_interrupt() so we can set
next_event to KTIME_MAX while we are handling the expired timers and
set it to the next expiry value after we handled the timers under the
base lock. While the expired timers are processed timer migration is
blocked because the expiry time of the timer is always <= KTIME_MAX.

Also remove the now useless clockevents_get_next_event() function.
