vfs: fix the rest of sget() races
unfortunately, just checking MS_BORN after having grabbed ->s_umount in
sget() is not enough; places that pick superblock from a list and
grab s_umount shared need the same check in addition to checking for
->s_root; otherwise three-way race between failing mount, sget() and
such list-walker can leave us with list-walker coming *second*, when
temporary active ref grabbed by sget() (to be dropped when sget()
notices that original mount has failed by checking MS_BORN) has
lead to deactivate_locked_super() from failing ->mount() *not* doing
->kill_sb() and just releasing ->s_umount. Once sget() gets through
and notices that MS_BORN had never been set it will drop the active
ref and fs will be shut down and kicked out of all lists, but it's
too late for something like sync_supers().

security: Fix security_old_inode_init_security() when CONFIG_SECURITY is not set
Commit
1e39f384bb01 ("evm: fix build problems") makes the stub version
of security_old_inode_init_security() return 0 when CONFIG_SECURITY is
not set.
But that makes callers such as reiserfs_security_init() assume that
security_old_inode_init_security() has set name, value, and len
arguments properly - but security_old_inode_init_security() left them
uninitialized which then results in interesting failures.
Revert security_old_inode_init_security() to the old behavior of
returning EOPNOTSUPP since both callers (reiserfs and ocfs2) handle this
just fine.
[ Also fixed the S_PRIVATE(inode) case of the actual non-stub
security_old_inode_init_security() function to return EOPNOTSUPP
for the same reason, as pointed out by Mimi Zohar.
It got incorrectly changed to match the new function in commit
fb88c2b6cbb1: "evm: fix security/security_old_init_security return

futex: Fix uninterruptible loop due to gate_area
It was found (by Sasha) that if you use a futex located in the gate
area we get stuck in an uninterruptible infinite loop, much like the
ZERO_PAGE issue.
While looking at this problem, PeterZ realized you'll get into similar
trouble when hitting any install_special_pages() mapping. And are there
still drivers setting up their own special mmaps without page->mapping,
and without special VM or pte flags to make get_user_pages fail?
In most cases, if page->mapping is NULL, we do not need to retry at all:
Linus points out that even /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches poses no problem,
because it ends up using remove_mapping(), which takes care not to
interfere when the page reference count is raised.
But there is still one case which does need a retry: if memory pressure
called shmem_writepage in between get_user_pages_fast dropping page
table lock and our acquiring page lock, then the page gets switched from
filecache to swapcache (and ->mapping set to NULL) whatever the refcount.
Fault it back in to get the page->mapping needed for key->shared.inode.

procfs: do not confuse jiffies with cputime64_t
Commit
2a95ea6c0d129b4 ("procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time
for nohz") did not take into account that one some architectures jiffies
and cputime use different units.
This causes get_idle_time() to return numbers in the wrong units, making
the idle time fields in /proc/stat wrong.
Instead of converting the usec value returned by
get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us to units of jiffies, use the new function
usecs_to_cputime64 to convert it to the correct unit of cputime64_t.

mm/mempolicy.c: refix mbind_range() vma issue
commit
8aacc9f550 ("mm/mempolicy.c: fix pgoff in mbind vma merge") is the
slightly incorrect fix.
Why? Think following case.
1. map 4 pages of a file at offset 0
[0123]
2. map 2 pages just after the first mapping of the same file but with
page offset 2
[0123][23]
3. mbind() 2 pages from the first mapping at offset 2.
mbind_range() should treat new vma is,
[0123][23]
|23|
mbind vma
but it does
[0123][23]
|01|
mbind vma
Oops. then, it makes wrong vma merge and splitting ([01][0123] or similar).
This patch fixes it.

block: fix blk_queue_end_tag()
Commit
5e081591 "block: warn if tag is greater than real_max_depth"
cleaned up blk_queue_end_tag() to warn when the tag is truly invalid
(greater than real_max_depth). However, it changed behavior in the tag <
max_depth case to not end the request. Leading to triggering of
BUG_ON(blk_queued_rq(rq)) in the request completion path:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=

In order to allow blk_queue_resize_tags() to shrink the tag space
blk_queue_end_tag() must always complete tags with a value less than
real_max_depth regardless of the current max_depth. The comment about
"handling the shrink case" seems to be what prompted changes in this
space, so remove it and BUG on all invalid tags (made even simpler by
Matthew's suggestion to use an unsigned compare).

watchdog: iTCO_wdt.c - problems with newer hardware due to SMI clearing (part 2)
Redhat Bugzilla: Bug 727875 - TCO_EN bit is disabled by TCO driver
The previous patch breaks reset watchdog behaviour on the older hardware.
It is therefor better to make sure that the behaviour for older hardware (<=ICH5 or
6300ESB) is preserved and that the behaviour for newer hardware is changed.
We therefor use the iTCO_version to see if we need the clearing of the SMI_TCO_EN
bit in the SMI_EN register.
So the new behaviour becomes:
turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=0 -> Do not turn off SMI clearing watchdog.
turn_SMI_watchdog_clear_off=1 -> Turn off SMI clearing watchdog when iTCO_version=1
(ICHO till ICH5 + 6300ESB only)

vfs: fix handling of lock allocation failure in lease-break case
Bruce Fields notes that commit
778fc546f749 ("locks: fix tracking of
inprogress lease breaks") introduced a possible error pointer
dereference on failure to allocate memory. locks_conflict() will
dereference the passed-in new lease lock structure that may be an error pointer.
This means an open (without O_NONBLOCK set) on a file with a lease
applied (generally only done when Samba or nfsd (with v4) is running)
could crash if a kmalloc() fails.
So instead of playing games with IS_ERROR() all over the place, just
check the allocation failure early. That makes the code more
straightforward, and avoids this possible bad pointer dereference.

- guests that are broken wrt the feature will fail.
Fix by not enabling the feature automatically; instead report it to userspace.
Because the feature depends on KVM_CREATE_IRQCHIP, which we cannot guarantee
will be called, we expose it via a KVM_CAP_TSC_DEADLINE_TIMER and not
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID.
Fixes the Illumos guest kernel, which uses the TSC deadline timer feature.

KVM: Device assignment permission checks
Only allow KVM device assignment to attach to devices which:
- Are not bridges
- Have BAR resources (assume others are special devices)
- The user has permissions to use
Assigning a bridge is a configuration error, it's not supported, and
typically doesn't result in the behavior the user is expecting anyway.
Devices without BAR resources are typically chipset components that
also don't have host drivers. We don't want users to hold such devices
captive or cause system problems by fencing them off into an iommu
domain. We determine "permission to use" by testing whether the user
has access to the PCI sysfs resource files. By default a normal user
will not have access to these files, so it provides a good indication
that an administration agent has granted the user access to the device.

Fix this by doing the pointers swap in critical section, and freeing

xfs: log all dirty inodes in xfs_fs_sync_fs
Since Linux 2.6.36 the writeback code has introduces various measures for
live lock prevention during sync(). Unfortunately some of these are
actively harmful for the XFS model, where the inode gets marked dirty for
metadata from the data I/O handler.
The older_than_this checks that are now more strictly enforced since
writeback: avoid livelocking WB_SYNC_ALL writeback
by only calling into __writeback_inodes_sb and thus only sampling the
current cut off time once. But on a slow enough devices the previous
asynchronous sync pass might not have fully completed yet, and thus XFS
might mark metadata dirty only after that sampling of the cut off time for
the blocking pass already happened. I have not myself reproduced this
myself on a real system, but by introducing artificial delay into the
XFS I/O completion workqueues it can be reproduced easily.
Fix this by iterating over all XFS inodes in ->sync_fs and log all that
are dirty. This might log inode that only got redirtied after the
previous pass, but given how cheap delayed logging of inodes is it
isn't a major concern for performance.

xfs: log the inode in ->write_inode calls for kupdate
If the writeback code writes back an inode because it has expired we currently
use the non-blockin ->write_inode path. This means any inode that is pinned
is skipped. With delayed logging and a workload that has very little log
traffic otherwise it is very likely that an inode that gets constantly
written to is always pinned, and thus we keep refusing to write it. The VM
writeback code at that point redirties it and doesn't try to write it again
for another 30 seconds. This means under certain scenarious time based
metadata writeback never happens.
Fix this by calling into xfs_log_inode for kupdate in addition to data
integrity syncs, and thus transfer the inode to the log ASAP.

This means that configs for buggy silicon can simply select
