068281d302 block: fix partial read() of /proc/{partitions,diskstats}
The proc files get truncated if they do not fit into the buffer with
a single read(). We need to move the seq_file index from the callback
of class_find_device() to the caller of class_find_device(), to keep
its value across multiple invocations of the callback.

f5a6d958b5 PM: Remove WARN_ON from device_pm_add
PM: Remove WARN_ON from device_pm_add

Fix message in device_pm_add() saying that the device will not be
added to dpm_list, although in fact the device is going to be added
to the list regardless of the ordering violation.

Remove the WARN_ON(true) triggered in that situation, because it is
hit by USB very often and spams the users' logs.

This patch fixes bug #11263

3b98aeaf3a PM: don't skip device PM init when CONFIG_PM_SLEEP isn't set and CONFIG_PM is set
This patch (as1124) fixes a couple of bugs in the PM core.  The new
dev->power.status field should be initialized regardless of whether
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP is enabled, and similarly dpm_sysfs_add() should be
called whenever CONFIG_PM is enabled.

The patch separates out the call to dpm_sysfs_add() from the call to
device_pm_add().  As a result device_pm_add() can no longer return an
error, so its return type is changed to void.

14bac5acfd mm: xip/ext2 fix block allocation race
XIP can call into get_xip_mem concurrently with the same file,offset with
create=1.  This usually maps down to get_block, which expects the page
lock to prevent such a situation.  This causes ext2 to explode for one
reason or another.

Serialise those calls for the moment.  For common usages today, I suspect
get_xip_mem rarely is called to create new blocks.  In future as XIP
technologies evolve we might need to look at which operations require
scalability, and rework the locking to suit.

538f8ea6c8 mm: xip fix fault vs sparse page invalidate race
XIP has a race between sparse pages being inserted into page tables, and
sparse pages being zapped when its time to put a non-sparse page in.

What can happen is that a process can be left with a dangling sparse page
in a MAP_SHARED mapping, while the rest of the world sees the non-sparse
version.  Ie.  data corruption.

Guard these operations with a seqlock, making fault-in-sparse-pages the
slowpath, and try-to-unmap-sparse-pages the fastpath.

479db0bf40 mm: dirty page tracking race fix
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly
be accounted for.

clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty.

page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and
write protects the pte if it was dirty.  It uses page_check_address to
find the pte.  That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is
not present.  Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then
back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this
should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may
be dirty.

For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte
before setting it to the desired value.  There may also be other code in
core mm or in arch which do similar things.

The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and
loss of dirty page accounting accuracy.  XIP's __xip_unmap could easily
also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can
lead to data corruption.

Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in
page_check_address.

It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and
try_to_unmap.

2d70b68d42 fix setpriority(PRIO_PGRP) thread iterator breakage
When user calls sys_setpriority(PRIO_PGRP ...) on a NPTL style multi-LWP
process, only the task leader of the process is affected, all other
sibling LWP threads didn't receive the setting.  The problem was that the
iterator used in sys_setpriority() only iteartes over one task for each
process, ignoring all other sibling thread.

Introduce a new macro do_each_pid_thread / while_each_pid_thread to walk
each thread of a process.  Convert 4 call sites in {set/get}priority and
ioprio_{set/get}.

481ebd0d76 bootmem: fix aligning of node-relative indexes and offsets
Absolute alignment requirements may never be applied to node-relative
offsets.  Andreas Herrmann spotted this flaw when a bootmem allocation on
an unaligned node was itself not aligned because the combination of an
unaligned node with an aligned offset into that node is not garuanteed to
be aligned itself.

This patch introduces two helper functions that align a node-relative
index or offset with respect to the node's starting address so that the
absolute PFN or virtual address that results from combining the two
satisfies the requested alignment.

Then all the broken ALIGN()s in alloc_bootmem_core() are replaced by these
helpers.

1d96469a34 rtc: fix double lock on UIE emulation
With commit 5ad31a5751 ("rtc: remove BKL
for ioctl()"), RTC_UIE_ON ioctl cause double lock on rtc->ops_lock.
The ops_lock must not be held while set_uie() calls rtc_read_time()
which takes the lock.  Also clear_uie() does not need ops_lock.  This
patch fixes return value of RTC_UIE_OFF ioctl too.

ff9bc512f1 binfmt_misc: fix false -ENOEXEC when coupled with other binary handlers
In case the binfmt_misc binary handler is registered *before* the e.g.
script one (when for example being compiled as a module) the following
situation may occur:

1. user launches a script, whose interpreter is a misc binary;
2. the load_misc_binary sets the misc_bang and returns -ENOEVEC,
   since the binary is a script;
3. the load_script_binary loads one and calls for search_binary_hander
   to run the interpreter;
4. the load_misc_binary is called again, but refuses to load the
   binary due to misc_bang bit set.

The fix is to move the misc_bang setting lower - prior to the actual
call to the search_binary_handler.

Caused by the commit 3a2e7f47 (binfmt_misc.c: avoid potential kernel
stack overflow)
