8f43fb5389 ceph: use info returned by get_authorizer
Rather than passing a bunch of arguments to be filled in with the
content of the ceph_auth_handshake buffer now returned by the
get_authorizer method, just use the returned information in the
caller, and drop the unnecessary arguments.

a3530df33e ceph: have get_authorizer methods return pointers
Have the get_authorizer auth_client method return a ceph_auth
pointer rather than an integer, pointer-encoding any returned
error value.  This is to pave the way for making use of the
returned value in an upcoming patch.

6c4a19158b ceph: define ceph_auth_handshake type
The definitions for the ceph_mds_session and ceph_osd both contain
five fields related only to "authorizers."  Encapsulate those fields
into their own struct type, allowing for better isolation in some
upcoming patches.

Fix the #includes in "linux/ceph/osd_client.h" to lay out their more
complete canonical path.

8e7fbcbc22 sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobs
It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power
aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending
patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ...
so remove it to make space free for something better.

There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first
and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology
levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a
state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to
master and almost nobody does.

Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it
means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either
under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if
there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of
it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads.

So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea
even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs
on every node of the topology.

There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single
3 state knob:

 sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto }

where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things
like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw
exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no
progress on it in the past many months.

Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs
is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at
fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable
state.

Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring
people who care to come forward once again and work on a
coherent replacement.

f0cf973a22 ftrace: Return record ip addr for ftrace_location()
ftrace_location() is passed an addr, and returns 1 if the addr is
on a ftrace nop (or caller to ftrace_caller), and 0 otherwise.

To let kprobes know if it should move a breakpoint or not, it
must return the actual addr that is the start of the ftrace nop.
This way a kprobe placed on the location of a ftrace nop, can
instead be placed on the instruction after the nop. Even if the
probe addr is on the second or later byte of the nop, it can
simply be moved forward.

c142786c62 KVM: MMU: Don't use RCU for lockless shadow walking
Using RCU for lockless shadow walking can increase the amount of memory
in use by the system, since RCU grace periods are unpredictable.  We also
have an unconditional write to a shared variable (reader_counter), which
isn't good for scaling.

Replace that with a scheme similar to x86's get_user_pages_fast(): disable
interrupts during lockless shadow walk to force the freer
(kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page()) to wait for the TLB flush IPI to find the
processor with interrupts enabled.

We also add a new vcpu->mode, READING_SHADOW_PAGE_TABLES, to prevent
kvm_flush_remote_tlbs() from avoiding the IPI.

2. In pstore/ram.c we have to play a bit with MODULE_PARAM_PREFIX, this

fd2cbd4dfa jbd: Write journal superblock with WRITE_FUA after checkpointing
If journal superblock is written only in disk's caches and other transaction
starts reusing space of the transaction cleaned from the log, it can happen
blocks of a new transaction reach the disk before journal superblock. When
power failure happens in such case, subsequent journal replay would still try
to replay the old transaction but some of it's blocks may be already
overwritten by the new transaction. For this reason we must use WRITE_FUA when
updating log tail and we must first write new log tail to disk and update
in-memory information only after that.

Take advantage of the new regmap irq_domain support to dynamically
allocate interrupts, using regmap_irq_get_virq() rather than irq_base
to look up the interrupts. This means that most users should not need
to specify an irq_base at all.

3a3bfb61e6 net: Add net_ratelimited_function and net_<level>_ratelimited macros
__ratelimit() can be considered an inverted bool test because
it returns true when not ratelimited.  Several tests in the
kernel tree use this __ratelimit() function incorrectly.

No net_ratelimit uses are incorrect currently though.

Most uses of net_ratelimit are to log something via printk or
pr_<level>.

In order to minimize the uses of net_ratelimit, and to start
standardizing the code style used for __ratelimit() and net_ratelimit(),
add a net_ratelimited_function() macro and net_<level>_ratelimited()
logging macros similar to pr_<level>_ratelimited that use the global
net_ratelimit instead of a static per call site "struct ratelimit_state".

5b6e9bcdeb usbnet: fix skb traversing races during unlink(v2)
Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid
recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking
problem by releasing the skb queue lock before unlink, but may
cause skb traversing races:
	- after URB is unlinked and the queue lock is released,
	the refered skb and skb->next may be moved to done queue,
	even be released
	- in skb_queue_walk_safe, the next skb is still obtained
	by next pointer of the last skb
	- so maybe trigger oops or other problems

This patch extends the usage of entry->state to describe 'start_unlink'
state, so always holding the queue(rx/tx) lock to change the state if
the referd skb is in rx or tx queue because we need to know if the
refered urb has been started unlinking in unlink_urbs.

The other part of this patch is based on Huajun's patch:
always traverse from head of the tx/rx queue to get skb which is
to be unlinked but not been started unlinking.

75928b1e80 linux/ethtool: Added macro ETH_FW_DUMP_DISABLE
o flag field of ethtool_dump structure must be initialized by this macro
value that is zero, if the firmware dump is disabled.
by this we can get the firmware dump capability [enable/disable] via ethtool
