485172b3df MIPS: Align swapper_pg_dir to 64K for better TLB Refill code.
We can save an instruction in the TLB Refill path for kernel mappings
by aligning swapper_pg_dir on a 64K boundary.  The address of
swapper_pg_dir can be generated with a single LUI instead of
LUI/{D}ADDUI.

The alignment of __init_end is bumped up to 64K so there are no holes
between it and swapper_pg_dir, which is placed at the very beginning
of .bss.

The alignment of invalid_pmd_table and invalid_pte_table can be
relaxed to PAGE_SIZE.  We do this by using __page_aligned_bss, which
has the added benefit of eliminating alignment holes in .bss.

b4f2a17ba9 Improve atomic.h robustness
I've maintained this patch, originally from Thiemo Seufer in 2004, for a
really long time, but I think it's time for it to get a look at for
possible inclusion.  I have had no problems with it across various SGI
systems over the years.

To quote the post here:
http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2004-12/msg00000.html

"the atomic functions use so far memory references for the inline
assembler to access the semaphore. This can lead to additional
instructions in the ll/sc loop, because newer compilers don't
expand the memory reference any more but leave it to the assembler.

The appended patch uses registers instead, and makes the ll/sc
arguments more explicit. In some cases it will lead also to better
register scheduling because the register isn't bound to an output
any more."

72f36d5972 md: refine reporting of resync/reshape delays.
If 'resync_max' is set to 0 (as is often done when starting a
reshape, so the mdadm can remain in control during a sensitive
period), and if the reshape request is initially delayed because
another array using the same array is resyncing or reshaping etc,
when user-space cannot easily tell when the delay changes from being
due to a conflicting reshape, to being due to resync_max = 0.

So introduce a new state: (curr_resync == 3) to reflect this, make
sure it is visible both via /proc/mdstat and via the "sync_completed"
sysfs attribute, and ensure that the event transition from one delay
state to the other is properly notified.

e56108d65f md/raid5: be careful not to resize_stripes too big.
When a RAID5 is reshaping, conf->raid_disks is increased
before mddev->delta_disks becomes zero.
This can result in check_reshape calling resize_stripes with a
number that is too large.  This particularly happens
when md_check_recovery calls ->check_reshape().

If we use ->previous_raid_disks, we don't risk this.

db07d85ef6 md: make sure manual changes to recovery checkpoint are saved.
If you make an array bigger but suppress resync of the new region with
  mdadm --grow /dev/mdX --size=max --assume-clean

then stop the array before anything is written to it, the effect of
the "--assume-clean" is lost and the array will resync the new space
when restarted.
So ensure that we update the metadata in the case.

48c26ddc9f md: writing to sync_action should clear the read-auto state.
In some cases array are started in 'read-auto' state where in
nothing gets written to any device until the array is written
to.  The purpose of this is to make accidental auto-assembly
of the wrong arrays less of a risk, and to allow arrays to be
started to read suspend-to-disk images without actually changing
anything (as might happen if the array were dirty and a
resync seemed necessary).

Explicitly writing the 'sync_action' for a read-auto array currently
doesn't clear the read-auto state, so the sync action doesn't
happen, which can be confusing.

So allow any successful write to sync_action to clear any read-auto
state.

7f7583d420 Subject: [PATCH] md:change resync_mismatches to atomic64_t to avoid races
Now that multiple threads can handle stripes, it is safer to
use an atomic64_t for resync_mismatches, to avoid update races.

8edc0e624d e1000e: Change wthresh to 1 to avoid possible Tx stalls
This patch originated from Hiroaki SHIMODA but has been modified
by Intel with some minor cleanups and additional commit log text.

Denys Fedoryshchenko and others reported Tx stalls on e1000e with
BQL enabled.  Issue was root caused to hardware delays. They were
introduced because some of the e1000e hardware with transmit
writeback bursting enabled, waits until the driver does an
explict flush OR there are WTHRESH descriptors to write back.

Sometimes the delays in question were on the order of seconds,
causing visible lag for ssh sessions and unacceptable tx
completion latency, especially for BQL enabled kernels.

To avoid possible Tx stalls, change WTHRESH back to 1.

The current plan is to investigate a method for re-enabling
WTHRESH while not harming BQL, but those patches will be later
for net-next if they work.

please enqueue for stable since v3.3 as this bug was introduced in
commit 3f0cfa3bc1

6a8ed462f1 xen: netback: handle compound page fragments on transmit.
An SKB paged fragment can consist of a compound page with order > 0.
However the netchannel protocol deals only in PAGE_SIZE frames.

Handle this in netbk_gop_frag_copy and xen_netbk_count_skb_slots by
iterating over the frames which make up the page.

If lower layer driver leaves the ip header in the skb fragment, it needs to

1ed850f356 md/raid5: make sure to_read and to_write never go negative.
to_read and to_write are part of the result of analysing
a stripe before handling it.
Their use is to avoid some loops and tests if the values are
known to be zero.  Thus it is not a problem if they are a
little bit larger than they should be.

So decrementing them in handle_failed_stripe serves little value, and
due to races it could cause some loops to be skipped incorrectly.

So remove those decrements.
