b560177f3e m68k: Fix asm constraints for atomic_sub_and_test() and atomic_add_negative()
Recently, we started seeing this on allmodconfig builds:

  CC      mm/memcontrol.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:4076: Error: operands mismatch -- statement `subl 12(%fp),170(%a0)' ignored

Correct the asm constraint, like done for m68knommu.

LibSegFault uses piggybacks sc_fpstate field of the `struct sigcontext'
and this patch avoids LibSegFault overflowing this field.  Also this

4e310fda91 vsprintf: Change struct printf_spec.precision from s8 to s16
Commit ef0658f3de changed precision
from int to s8.

There is existing kernel code that uses a larger precision.

An example from the audit code:
	vsnprintf(...,..., " msg='%.1024s'", (char *)data);
which overflows precision and truncates to nothing.

Extending precision size fixes the audit system issue.

Other changes:

Change the size of the struct printf_spec.type from u16 to u8 so
sizeof(struct printf_spec) stays as small as possible.
Reorder the struct members so sizeof(struct printf_spec) remains 64 bits
without alignment holes.
Document the struct members a bit more.

2b3d1d87ea hwmon: (it87) Invalidate cache on temperature sensor change
When any temperature sensor type is changed, the corresponding
temperature value needs to be updated. The register caching mechanism

8acf07c5a7 hwmon: (it87) Properly handle wrong sensor type requests

unsupported value, subsequent accesses to the chip may temporarily
show the sensor in question as disabled. Use a temporary variable
and only update the cached value on success, to prevent such

a00afb97e2 hwmon: (it87) Don't arbitrarily enable temperature channels
Temperature channels can be used in 2 different modes (thermistor and
thermal diode) and we don't know which one, if any, is correct for
every given board. So don't arbitrarily choose one. Instead, leave the
temperature channels untouched. They can be configured from user-space
if needed anyway.

328a2c22ab hwmon: (sht15) Fix sht15_calc_temp interpolation function
I discovered two issues.
First the previous sht15_calc_temp() loop did not iterate through the
temppoints array since the (data->supply_uV > temppoints[i - 1].vdd)
test is always true in this direction.

Also the two-points linear interpolation function was returning biased
values due to a stray division by 1000 which shouldn't be there.

[JD: Also change the default value for d1 from 0 to something saner.]

091ebf07a2 lguest: stop using KVM hypercall mechanism
This is a partial revert of 4cd8b5e2a1 "lguest: use KVM hypercalls";
we revert to using (just as questionable but more reliable) int $15 for
hypercalls.  I didn't revert the register mapping, so we still use the
same calling convention as kvm.

KVM in more recent incarnations stopped injecting a fault when a guest
tried to use the VMCALL instruction from ring 1, so lguest under kvm
fails to make hypercalls.  It was nice to share code with our KVM
cousins, but this was overreach.

5094aeafbb lguest: workaround cmpxchg8b_emu by ignoring cli in the guest.
It's only used by cmpxchg8b_emu (see db677ffa5f for the gory
details), and fixing that to be paravirt aware would be more work than
simply ignoring it (and AFAICT only help lguest).  This makes lguest
work on machines which have cmpxchg8b, for kernels compiled for older
processors.

(We can't emulate it properly: the popf which expects to restore interrupts
does not trap).

e182c77cc2 sparc64: Fix memory leak in pci_register_iommu_region().
Found by kmemleak.

If request_resource() fails, we leak the struct resource we
allocated to represent the IOMMU mapping area.

This actually happens on sun4v machines because the IOMEM area is only
reported sans the IOMMU region, unlike all previous systems.  I'll
need to fix that at some point, but for now fix the leak.

25ad403f67 sparc64: Add kmemleak annotation to sun4v_build_virq()
The only reference we store to this memory is in the form of a
physical address, so kmemleak can't see it.

Add a kmemleak_not_leak() annotation.

It's probably useful to be able to look at a dump of these things
either via debugfs or similar, and thus we could at some point store
them in some kind of table and therefore get rid of this annotation.

0c25e9e6cb sparc64: Adjust __raw_local_irq_save() to cooperate in NMIs.
If we are in an NMI then doing a plain raw_local_irq_disable() will
write PIL_NORMAL_MAX into %pil, which is lower than PIL_NMI, and thus
we'll re-enable NMIs and recurse.

Doing a simple:

	%pil = %pil | PIL_NORMAL_MAX

does what we want, if we're already at PIL_NMI (15) we leave it at
that setting, else we set it to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14).

This should get the function tracer working on sparc64.

ea90002b0f anonvma: when setting up page->mapping, we need to pick the _oldest_ anonvma
Otherwise we might be mapping in a page in a new mapping, but that page
(through the swapcache) would later be mapped into an old mapping too.
The page->mapping must be the case that works for everybody, not just
the mapping that happened to page it in first.

Here's the scenario:

 - page gets allocated/mapped by process A. Let's call the anon_vma we
   associate the page with 'A' to keep it easy to track.

 - Process A forks, creating process B. The anon_vma in B is 'B', and has
   a chain that looks like 'B' -> 'A'. Everything is fine.

 - Swapping happens. The page (with mapping pointing to 'A') gets swapped
   out (perhaps not to disk - it's enough to assume that it's just not
   mapped any more, and lives entirely in the swap-cache)

 - Process B pages it in, which goes like this:

        do_swap_page ->
          page = lookup_swap_cache(entry);
         ...
          set_pte_at(mm, address, page_table, pte);
          page_add_anon_rmap(page, vma, address);

   And think about what happens here!

   In particular, what happens is that this will now be the "first"
   mapping of that page, so page_add_anon_rmap() used to do

        if (first)
                __page_set_anon_rmap(page, vma, address);

   and notice what anon_vma it will use? It will use the anon_vma for
   process B!

   What happens then? Trivial: process 'A' also pages it in (nothing
   happens, it's not the first mapping), and then process 'B' execve's
   or exits or unmaps, making anon_vma B go away.

   End result: process A has a page that points to anon_vma B, but
   anon_vma B does not exist any more.  This can go on forever.  Forget
   about RCU grace periods, forget about locking, forget anything like
   that.  The bug is simply that page->mapping points to an anon_vma
   that was correct at one point, but was _not_ the one that was shared
   by all users of that possible mapping.

Changing it to always use the deepest anon_vma in the anonvma chain gets
us to the safest model.

This can be improved in certain cases: if we know the page is private to
just this particular mapping (for example, it's a new page, or it is the
only swapcache entry), we could pick the top (most specific) anon_vma.

But that's a future optimization. Make it _work_ reliably first.

646d87b481 anon_vma: clone the anon_vma chain in the right order
We want to walk the chain in reverse order when cloning it, so that the
order of the result chain will be the same as the order in the source
chain.  When we add entries to the chain, they go at the head of the
chain, so we want to add the source head last.

287d97ac03 vma_adjust: fix the copying of anon_vma chains
When we move the boundaries between two vma's due to things like
mprotect, we need to make sure that the anon_vma of the pages that got
moved from one vma to another gets properly copied around.  And that was
not always the case, in this rather hard-to-follow code sequence.

Clarify the code, and fix it so that it copies the anon_vma from the
right source.
