Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"This patch set contains the main portion of the changes for 3.18 in
regard to the s390 architecture. It is a bit bigger than usual,
mainly because of a new driver and the vector extension patches.
The interesting bits are:
- Quite a bit of work on the tracing front. Uprobes is enabled and
the ftrace code is reworked to get some of the lost performance
back if CONFIG_FTRACE is enabled.
- To improve boot time with CONFIG_DEBIG_PAGEALLOC, support for the
IPTE range facility is added.
- The rwlock code is re-factored to improve writer fairness and to be
able to use the interlocked-access instructions.
- The kernel part for the support of the vector extension is added.
- The device driver to access the CD/DVD on the HMC is added, this
will hopefully come in handy to improve the installation process.
- Add support for control-unit initiated reconfiguration.
- The crypto device driver is enhanced to enable the additional AP
domains and to allow the new crypto hardware to be used.
- Bug fixes"

Wilcox, culled from his XIP-related series) pushing the conversion to

cleanups and fixes (including the external name refcounting, which
gives consistent behaviour of d_move() wrt procfs symlinks for long

caused a regression in xfs_inumbers, which in turn broke
xfsdump, causing incomplete dumps.
The loop in xfs_inumbers() needs to fill the user-supplied
buffers, and iterates via xfs_btree_increment, reading new
ags as needed.
But the first time through the loop, if xfs_btree_increment()
succeeds, we continue, which triggers the ++agno at the bottom
of the loop, and we skip to soon to the next ag - without
the proper setup under next_ag to read the next ag.
Fix this by removing the agno increment from the loop conditional,
and only increment agno if we have actually hit the code under
the next_ag: target.

The following pairs of system calls dealing with extended attributes only
differ in their behavior on whether the symbolic link is followed (when
the named file is a symbolic link):
- setxattr() and lsetxattr()
- getxattr() and lgetxattr()
- listxattr() and llistxattr()
- removexattr() and lremovexattr()
Despite this, the implementations all had duplicated code, so this commit
redirects each of the above pairs of system calls to a corresponding
function to which different lookup flags (LOOKUP_FOLLOW or 0) are passed.
For me this reduced the stripped size of xattr.o from 8824 to 8248 bytes.

Pull parisc fix from Helge Deller:
"This patch intentionally breaks the ABI on PARISC Linux!
It assigns new numbers to SIGSTKFLT, SIGXCPU, SIGXFSZ and SIGSYS so
that those are below 32 and thus leaves us with 32 RT signals like
other Linux architectures (SIGRTMIN now becomes 32 instead of 37).
Even if it breaks the ABI, it doesn't seem to have any visible impact
on existing userspace applications. I was able to mix new kernel
and/or glibc without impacting normal bootup. So, even if it breaks
the ABI, the benefits (e.g. being able to use systemd on PARISC
Linux) outperforms the minimal (if any) impact it gives.
The patch has been discussed on the parisc kernel mailing list and the
coresponding glibc patch will be committed by the parisc glibc
maintainer after this patch went into 3.18.
Some more background information about this patch is in the commit
message"
[ Side note: the "no regressions" rule has always been about *users*,
not ABI's. You can change ABI's all you like, until somebody actually
notices. At that point it gets reverted regardless of how good your
reasons and excuses.
And admittedly, with parisc, the distinct lack of many users makes
that fairly unlikely anyway :^p - Linus ]

and the tests do not call anything that might trigger a spurious

of the trampoline logic.
The trampoline logic of 3.17 required a descriptor for every function
that is registered to be traced and uses a trampoline. Currently,
only the function graph tracer uses a trampoline, but if you were
to trace all 32,000 (give or take a few thousand) functions with the
function graph tracer, it would create 32,000 descriptors to let us
know that there's a trampoline associated with it. This takes up a bit
of memory when there's a better way to do it.
The redesign now reuses the ftrace_ops' (what registers the function graph
tracer) hash tables. The hash tables tell ftrace what the tracer
wants to trace or doesn't want to trace. There's two of them: one
that tells us what to trace, the other tells us what not to trace.
If the first one is empty, it means all functions should be traced,
otherwise only the ones that are listed should be. The second hash table
tells us what not to trace, and if it is empty, all functions may be
traced, and if there's any listed, then those should not be traced
even if they exist in the first hash table.
It took a bit of massaging, but now these hashes can be used to
keep track of what has a trampoline and what does not, and allows
the ftrace accounting to work. Now we can trace all functions when using
the function graph trampoline, and avoid needing to create any special
descriptors to hold all the functions that are being traced.

ftrace: Add separate function for non recursive callbacks
This patch reduces the value of SIGRTMIN on PARISC from 37 to 32, thus
increasing the number of available RT signals and bring it in sync with other
Linux architectures.
Historically we wanted to natively support HP-UX 32bit binaries with the
PA-RISC Linux port. Because of that we carried the various available signals
from HP-UX (e.g. SIGEMT and SIGLOST) and folded them in between the native
Linux signals. Although this was the right decision at that time, this
required us to increase SIGRTMIN to at least 37 which left us with 27 (64-37)
RT signals.
Those 27 RT signals haven't been a problem in the past, but with the upcoming
importance of systemd we now got the problem that systemd alloctes (hardcoded)
signals up to SIGRTMIN+29 which is beyond our NSIG of 64. Because of that we
have not been able to use systemd on the PARISC Linux port yet.
Of course we could ask the systemd developers to not use those hardcoded
values, but this change is very unlikely, esp. with PA-RISC being a niche
architecture.
The other possibility would be to increase NSIG to e.g. 128, but this would
mean to duplicate most of the existing Linux signal handling code into the
parisc specific Linux kernel tree which would most likely introduce lots of new
bugs beside the code duplication.
The third option is to drop some HP-UX signals and shuffle some other signals
around to bring SIGRTMIN to 32. This is of course an ABI change, but testing
has shown that existing Linux installations are not visibly affected by this
change - most likely because we move those signals around which are rarely used
and move them to slots which haven't been used in Linux yet. In an existing
installation I was able to exchange either the Linux kernel or glibc (or both)
without affecting the boot process and installed applications.
Dropping the HP-UX signals isn't an issue either, since support for HP-UX was
basically dropped a few months back with Kernel 3.14 in commit
f5a408d53e already, when we changed EWOULDBLOCK
to be equal to EAGAIN.
So, even if this is an ABI change, it's better to change it now and thus bring
PARISC Linux in sync with other architectures to avoid other issues in the
future.

"This set fixes a bunch of fallout from the changes that went in during
this merge window, particularly:
- Fix fsl_pq_mdio (Claudiu Manoil) and fm10k (Pranith Kumar) build
failures.
- Several networking drivers do atomic_set() on page counts where
that's not exactly legal. From Eric Dumazet.
- Make __skb_flow_get_ports() work cleanly with unaligned data, from
Alexander Duyck.
- Fix some kernel-doc buglets in rfkill and netlabel, from Fabian
Frederick.
- Unbalanced enable_irq_wake usage in bcmgenet and systemport
drivers, from Florian Fainelli.
- pxa168_eth needs to depend on HAS_DMA, from Geert Uytterhoeven.
- Multi-dequeue in the qdisc layer severely bypasses the fairness
limits the previous code used to enforce, reintroduce in a way that
at the same time doesn't compromise bulk dequeue opportunities.
From Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
- macvlan receive path unnecessarily hops through a softirq by using
netif_rx() instead of netif_receive_skb(). From Jason Baron"
