Ensure the kernel correctly switches VSX registers correctly. VSX
registers are all volatile, and despite the kernel preserving VSX
across syscalls, it doesn't have to. Test that during interrupts and
timeslices ending the VSX regs remain the same.

This reverts commit 4fa5cd5245.
The original change widens a preempt-off section, to avoid a seemingly unsafe
smp_processor_id() use.
During review I overlooked two facts:
- The code to calls a non-trivial function callback:
ht->park(td->cpu);
... which might (and does occasionally) sleep, triggering the warning.
- More importantly, as pointed out by Peter Zijlstra, using
smp_processor_id() in that context is safe, if it's done from
a kernel thread that is pinned to a single CPU - which is the
case here.
So revert to the original code that enables preemption sooner.

nf_log_proc_dostring() used current's network namespace instead of the one
corresponding to the sysctl file the write was performed on. Because the

are accessible for the namespace owner, this can be abused by an

There's no point in enabling PSR when the panel doesn't support it.
This also avoids a problem when PSR gets enabled when a CRTC is being
disabled, because sometimes in that situation the DSP_HOLD_VALID_INTR
interrupt on which we wait will never arrive. This was observed on
RK3288 with a panel without PSR (veyron-jaq Chromebook).
It's very easy to reproduce by running the kms_rmfb test in IGT a few
times.

Currently we use a linear walk to lookup a handle and return a dma-buf,
and vice versa. A long overdue TODO task is to convert that to a
hashtable. Since the initial implementation of dma-buf/prime, we now
have resizeable hashtables we can use (and now a future task is to RCU
enable the lookup!). However, this patch opts to use an rbtree instead
to provide O(lgN) lookups (and insertion, deletion). rbtrees were chosen
over using the RCU backed resizable hashtable to firstly avoid the
reallocations (rbtrees can be embedded entirely within the parent
struct) and to favour simpler code with predictable worst case
behaviour. In simple testing, the difference between using the constant
lookup and insertion of the rhashtable and the rbtree was less than 10%
of the wall time (igt/benchmarks/prime_lookup) - both are dramatic
improvements over the existing linear lists.
v2: Favour rbtree over rhashtable

net/ncsi: NCSI Improvment and bug fixes
This series of patches improves NCSI stack according to the comments
I received after the NCSI code was merged to 4.8.rc1:
* PATCH[1/8] fixes the build warning caused by xchg() with ia64-linux-gcc.
The atomic operations are removed. The NCSI's lock should be taken when
reading or updating its state and chained state.
* Channel ID (0x1f) is the reserved one and it cannot be valid channel ID.
So we needn't try to probe channel whose ID is 0x1f. PATCH[2/8] and
PATCH[3/8] are addressing this issue.
* The request IDs are assigned in round-robin fashion, but it's broken.
PATCH[4/8] make it work.
* PATCH[5/8] and PATCH[6/8] reworks the channel monitoring to improve the
code readability and its robustness.
* PATCH[7/8] and PATCH[8/8] introduces ncsi_stop_dev() so that the network
device can be closed and opened afterwards. No error will be seen.
Changelog
=========
v2:
* The NCSI's lock is taken when reading or updating its state as the

The original NCSI channel monitoring was implemented based on a
backoff algorithm: the GLS response should be received in the
specified interval. Otherwise, the channel is regarded as dead
and failover should be taken if current channel is an active one.
There are several problems in the implementation: (A) On BCM5718,
we found when the IID (Instance ID) in the GLS command packet
changes from 255 to 1, the response corresponding to IID#1 never
comes in. It means we cannot make the unfair judgement that the
channel is dead when one response is missed. (B) The code's
readability should be improved. (C) We should do failover when
current channel is active one and the channel monitoring should
be marked as disabled before doing failover.
This reworks the channel monitoring to address all above issues.
The fields for channel monitoring is put into separate struct
and the state of channel monitoring is predefined. The channel
is regarded alive if the network controller responses to one of
two GLS commands or both of them in 5 seconds.

There is only one NCSI request property for now: the response for
the sent command need drive the workqueue or not. So we had one
field (@driven) for the purpose. We lost the flexibility to extend
NCSI request properties.
This replaces @driven with @flags and @req_flags in NCSI request
and NCSI command argument struct. Each bit of the newly introduced
field can be used for one property. No functional changes introduced.

The NCSI request index (struct ncsi_request::id) is put into instance
ID (IID) field while sending NCSI command packet. It was designed the
available IDs are given in round-robin fashion. @ndp->request_id was
introduced to represent the next available ID, but it has been used
as number of successively allocated IDs. It breaks the round-robin
design. Besides, we shouldn't put 0 to NCSI command packet's IID
field, meaning ID#0 should be reserved according section 6.3.1.1
in NCSI spec (v1.1.0).
This fixes above two issues. With it applied, the available IDs will
be assigned in round-robin fashion and ID#0 won't be assigned.

We needn't send CIS (Clear Initial State) command to the NCSI
reserved channel (0x1f) in the enumeration. We shouldn't receive
a valid response from CIS on NCSI channel 0x1f.

xchg() is used to set NCSI channel's state in order for consistent
access to the state. xchg()'s return value should be used. Otherwise,
one build warning will be raised (with -Wunused-value) as below message
indicates. It is reported by ia64-linux-gcc (GCC) 4.9.0.
net/ncsi/ncsi-manage.c: In function 'ncsi_channel_monitor':
arch/ia64/include/uapi/asm/cmpxchg.h:56:2: warning: value computed is \
not used [-Wunused-value]

^
net/ncsi/ncsi-manage.c:202:3: note: in expansion of macro 'xchg'
xchg(&nc->state, NCSI_CHANNEL_INACTIVE);
This removes the atomic access to NCSI channel's state avoid the above
build warning. We have to hold the channel's lock when its state is readed
or updated. No functional changes introduced.

This is a respin of a patch to fix a relatively easily reproducible kernel
panic related to the all_adj_list handling for netdevs in recent kernels.
The following sequence of commands will reproduce the issue:
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200
ip link add name testbr type bridge
ip link set eth0.100 master testbr
ip link set eth0.200 master testbr
ip link add link testbr mac0 type macvlan
ip link delete dev testbr
This creates an upper/lower tree of (excuse the poor ASCII art):
/---eth0.100-eth0
mac0-testbr-
\---eth0.200-eth0
When testbr is deleted, the all_adj_lists are walked, and eth0 is deleted twice from
the mac0 list. Unfortunately, during setup in __netdev_upper_dev_link, only one
reference to eth0 is added, so this results in a panic.
This change adds reference count propagation so things are handled properly.
Matthias Schiffer reported a similar crash in batman-adv:

which this patch also seems to resolve.

Much of the signal code takes a pt_regs on which it operates. Over
time the signal code has needed to know more about the thread than
what pt_regs can supply, this information is obtained as needed by
using 'current'.
This approach is not strictly incorrect however it does mean that
there is now a hard requirement that the pt_regs being passed around
does belong to current, this is never checked. A safer approach is for
the majority of the signal functions to take a task_struct from which
they can obtain pt_regs and any other information they need. The
caveat that the task_struct they are passed must be current doesn't go
away but can more easily be checked for.
Functions called from outside powerpc signal code are passed a pt_regs
and they can confirm that the pt_regs is that of current and pass
current to other functions, furthurmore, powerpc signal functions can
check that the task_struct they are passed is the same as current
avoiding possible corruption of current (or the task they are passed)
if this assertion ever fails.
