i915: bail out earlier when shrinker cannot acquire mutex
SHRINK_STOP was added to tell the core shrinker code to bail out and
go to the next shrinker since the i915 shrinker couldn't acquire
required locks. But the SHRINK_STOP return code was added to the
->count_objects callback and not the ->scan_objects callback as it
should have been, resulting in tons of dmesg noise like
shrink_slab: i915_gem_inactive_scan+0x0/0x9c negative objects to delete nr=-xxxxxxxxx
Fix discusssed with Dave Chinner.

Lastly, add two DM module parameters which allow users to tune the
emergency memory reserves that DM mainatins per device -- this helps fix
a long-standing issue for dm-multipath. The conservative default
reserve for request-based dm-multipath devices (256) has proven
problematic for users with many multipathed SCSI devices but relatively
little memory. To responsibly select a smaller value users should use
the new nr_bios tracepoint info (via commit 75afb352 "block: Add nr_bios

their workloads create.

[ Split patch removing unrelated conversion of sprintf to snprintf to perf/core ]
Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
Fix perf probe to probe on some symbols which have some optimzation
suffixes, e.g. ".part", ".isra", and ".constprop".
To fix this issue, instead of using the DIE name, perf probe uses the
symbol name found by dwfl_module_addrsym().
This also involves a perf probe --vars operation update which now shows
the symbol name instead of the DIE name.
Without this patch, putting a probe on an inlined function which was
compiled with a suffixed symbol will fail like this:
$ perf probe -v getname_flags
probe-definition(0): getname_flags
symbol:getname_flags file:(null) line:0 offset:0 return:0 lazy:(null)
0 arguments
Looking at the vmlinux_path (6 entries long)
Using /lib/modules/3.11.0+/build/vmlinux for symbols
found inline addr: 0xffffffff8119bb70
Probe point found: getname_flags+0

Added new events:
Writing event: p:probe/getname_flags getname_flags+0
Failed to write event: No such file or directory
Error: Failed to add events. (-1)
Because the debuginfo knows only the original (non suffix) symbol name,
it uses the original symbol for probe address but the kernel (kallsyms)
knows only suffixed symbol. Then, the kernel rejects that original
symbol.
This patch uses dwfl_module_addrsym() to get the correct (suffixed)
symbol from symtab when a probe point is found.

On hosts with more than 168 GB of memory, a 32-bit guest may attempt
to grant map an MFN that is error cannot lookup in its mapping of the
m2p table. There is an m2p lookup as part of m2p_add_override() and
m2p_remove_override(). The lookup falls off the end of the mapped
portion of the m2p and (because the mapping is at the highest virtual
address) wraps around and the lookup causes a fault on what appears to
be a user space address.
do_page_fault() (thinking it's a fault to a userspace address), tries
to lock mm->mmap_sem. If the gntdev device is used for the grant map,
m2p_add_override() is called from from gnttab_mmap() with mm->mmap_sem
already locked. do_page_fault() then deadlocks.
The deadlock would most commonly occur when a 64-bit guest is started
and xenconsoled attempts to grant map its console ring.
Introduce mfn_to_pfn_no_overrides() which checks the MFN is within the
mapped portion of the m2p table before accessing the table and use
this in m2p_add_override(), m2p_remove_override(), and mfn_to_pfn()
(which already had the correct range check).
All faults caused by accessing the non-existant parts of the m2p are
thus within the kernel address space and exception_fixup() is called
without trying to lock mm->mmap_sem.
This means that for MFNs that are outside the mapped range of the m2p
then mfn_to_pfn() will always look in the m2p overrides. This is
correct because it must be a foreign MFN (and the PFN in the m2p in
this case is only relevant for the other domain).

We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains
the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for
detecting stack overflows.
It has a few problems however:
- First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but
not actually exploited
- When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update
is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This
is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit.
Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical
future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid
a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely
during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the
asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly
instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated
softirq stack.
This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call
irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to
the irq stack.
This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making
irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack.

Much of of_irq.h is needlessly ifdef'ed. Clean this up and minimize the
amount ifdef'ed code. This fixes some build warnings when CONFIG_OF
is not enabled (seen on i386 and x86_64):
include/linux/of_irq.h:82:7: warning: 'struct device_node' declared inside parameter list [enabled by default]
include/linux/of_irq.h:82:7: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want [enabled by default]
include/linux/of_irq.h:87:47: warning: 'struct device_node' declared inside parameter list [enabled by default]
Compile tested on i386, sparc and arm.

Clean-up some copy/paste declarations that are not necessary. All the
functions either don't exist or are already declared in other headers.
This is needed in preparation of of_irq.h clean-up.

cpufreq_get() can be called from external drivers which might not be aware if
cpufreq driver is registered or not. And so we should actually check if cpufreq
driver is registered or not and also if cpufreq is active or disabled, at the
beginning of cpufreq_get().
Otherwise call to lock_policy_rwsem_read() might hit BUG_ON(!policy).

If the hw supports intel_pstate and acpi_cpufreq, intel_pstate will
get loaded first.
acpi_cpufreq_init() will call acpi_cpufreq_early_init()
and that will allocate perf data and init those perf data in ACPI core,
(that will cover all CPUs). But later it will free them as
cpufreq_register_driver(acpi_cpufreq) will fail as intel_pstate is
already registered
Use cpufreq_get_current_driver() to check if we can skip the
acpi_cpufreq loading.

Also Tony Camuso says:
We were getting occasional "Scheduling while atomic" call traces
during boot on some systems. Problem was first seen on a Cisco C210
but we were able to reproduce it on a Cisco c220m3. Setting
CONFIG_LOCKDEP and LOCKDEP_SUPPORT to 'y' exposed a lockdep around
tx_msg_lock in acpi_ipmi.c struct acpi_ipmi_device.

Merge fixes from Andrew Morton:
"Bunch of fixes.
And a reversion of mhocko's "Soft limit rework" patch series. This is
actually your fault for opening the merge window when I was off racing ;)
I didn't read the email thread before sending everything off.
Johannes Weiner raised significant issues:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/cgroups/msg08813.html
and we agreed to back it all out"
I clearly need to be more aware of Andrew's racing schedule.

Commit 1b3a5d02ee ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic
kernel") did some cleanup for reboot= command line, but it made the
reboot_default inoperative.
The default value of variable reboot_default should be 1, and if command
line reboot= is not set, system will use the default reboot mode.

After commit 829199197a ("kernel/audit.c: avoid negative sleep
durations") audit emitters will block forever if userspace daemon cannot
handle backlog.
After the timeout the waiting loop turns into busy loop and runs until
daemon dies or returns back to work. This is a minimal patch for that
bug.
