This patch adds dma_get_sgtable() function which is required to let
drivers to share the buffers allocated by DMA-mapping subsystem. Right
now the driver gets a dma address of the allocated buffer and the kernel
virtual mapping for it. If it wants to share it with other device (= map
into its dma address space) it usually hacks around kernel virtual
addresses to get pointers to pages or assumes that both devices share
the DMA address space. Both solutions are just hacks for the special
cases, which should be avoided in the final version of buffer sharing.
To solve this issue in a generic way, a new call to DMA mapping has been
introduced - dma_get_sgtable(). It allocates a scatter-list which
describes the allocated buffer and lets the driver(s) to use it with
other device(s) by calling dma_map_sg() on it.
This patch provides a generic implementation based on virt_to_page()
call. Architectures which require more sophisticated translation might
provide their own get_sgtable() methods.

This patch adds DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING attribute which lets the
platform to avoid creating a kernel virtual mapping for the allocated
buffer. On some architectures creating such mapping is non-trivial task
and consumes very limited resources (like kernel virtual address space
or dma consistent address space). Buffers allocated with this attribute
can be only passed to user space by calling dma_mmap_attrs().

This patch changes dma-mapping subsystem to use generic vmalloc areas
for all consistent dma allocations. This increases the total size limit
of the consistent allocations and removes platform hacks and a lot of
duplicated code.
Atomic allocations are served from special pool preallocated on boot,
because vmalloc areas cannot be reliably created in atomic context.

This patch adds a new constructor for an sg table. The table is constructed
from an array of struct pages. All contiguous chunks of the pages are merged
into a single sg nodes. A user may provide an offset and a size of a buffer if
the buffer is not page-aligned.
The function is dedicated for DMABUF exporters which often perform conversion
from an page array to a scatterlist. Moreover the scatterlist should be
squashed in order to save memory and to speed-up the process of DMA mapping
using dma_map_sg.
The code is based on the patch 'v4l: vb2-dma-contig: add support for
scatterlist in userptr mode' and hints from Laurent Pinchart.

This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to the Linux VFS.
Symlinks:
A long-standing class of security issues is the symlink-based
time-of-check-time-of-use race, most commonly seen in world-writable
directories like /tmp. The common method of exploitation of this flaw
is to cross privilege boundaries when following a given symlink (i.e. a
root process follows a symlink belonging to another user). For a likely
incomplete list of hundreds of examples across the years, please see:
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=/tmp
The solution is to permit symlinks to only be followed when outside
a sticky world-writable directory, or when the uid of the symlink and
follower match, or when the directory owner matches the symlink's owner.
Some pointers to the history of earlier discussion that I could find:

Past objections and rebuttals could be summarized as:
- Violates POSIX.
- POSIX didn't consider this situation and it's not useful to follow
a broken specification at the cost of security.
- Might break unknown applications that use this feature.
- Applications that break because of the change are easy to spot and
fix. Applications that are vulnerable to symlink ToCToU by not having
the change aren't. Additionally, no applications have yet been found
that rely on this behavior.
- Applications should just use mkstemp() or O_CREATE|O_EXCL.
- True, but applications are not perfect, and new software is written
all the time that makes these mistakes; blocking this flaw at the
kernel is a single solution to the entire class of vulnerability.
- This should live in the core VFS.
- This should live in an LSM. (https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/31/135)

Hardlinks:
On systems that have user-writable directories on the same partition
as system files, a long-standing class of security issues is the
hardlink-based time-of-check-time-of-use race, most commonly seen in
world-writable directories like /tmp. The common method of exploitation
of this flaw is to cross privilege boundaries when following a given
hardlink (i.e. a root process follows a hardlink created by another
user). Additionally, an issue exists where users can "pin" a potentially
vulnerable setuid/setgid file so that an administrator will not actually
upgrade a system fully.
The solution is to permit hardlinks to only be created when the user is
already the existing file's owner, or if they already have read/write
access to the existing file.
Many Linux users are surprised when they learn they can link to files
they have no access to, so this change appears to follow the doctrine
of "least surprise". Additionally, this change does not violate POSIX,
which states "the implementation may require that the calling process
has permission to access the existing file"[1].
This change is known to break some implementations of the "at" daemon,
though the version used by Fedora and Ubuntu has been fixed[2] for
a while. Otherwise, the change has been undisruptive while in use in
Ubuntu for the last 1.5 years.

Currently drivers where using acpi_video_unregister() directly

- That didn't respect any acpi_backlight=[video|vendor] parameter

- Any later call to acpi_video_register() would still re-load the

Pull GPIO changes from Linus Walleij:
- New driver for AMD-8111 southbridge GPIOs
- New driver for Wolfson Micro Arizona devices
- Propagate device tree parse errors
- Probe deferral finalizations - all expected calls to GPIO will now
hopefully request deferral where apropriate
- Misc updates to TCA6424, WM8994, LPC32xx, PCF857x, Samsung MXC, OMAP
and PCA953X drivers.

LPC32xx has "Standard" UARTs that are actually 16550A compatible but have
bigger FIFOs. Since the already supported 16X50 line still doesn't match here,
we agreed on adding a new type.

Recently, glibc made a change to suppress sign-conversion warnings in
FD_SET (glibc commit ceb9e56b3d1). This uncovered an issue with the
kernel's definition of __NFDBITS if applications #include
<linux/types.h> after including <sys/select.h>. A build failure would
be seen when passing the -Werror=sign-compare and -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2
flags to gcc.
It was suggested that the kernel should either match the glibc
definition of __NFDBITS or remove that entirely. The current in-kernel
uses of __NFDBITS can be replaced with BITS_PER_LONG, and there are no
uses of the related __FDELT and __FDMASK defines. Given that, we'll
continue the cleanup that was started with commit 8b3d1cda4f
("posix_types: Remove fd_set macros") and drop the remaining unused
macros.
Additionally, linux/time.h has similar macros defined that expand to
nothing so we'll remove those at the same time.

Pul x86/efi changes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree adds an EFI bootloader handover protocol, which, once
supported on the bootloader side, will make bootup faster and might
result in simpler bootloaders.
The other change activates the EFI wall clock time accessors on x86-64
as well, instead of the legacy RTC readout."

Pull staging tree patches from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"Here's the big staging tree merge for the 3.6-rc1 merge window.
There are some patches in here outside of drivers/staging/, notibly
the iio code (which is still stradeling the staging / not staging
boundry), the pstore code, and the tracing code. All of these have
gotten acks from the various subsystem maintainers to be included in
this tree. The pstore and tracing patches are related, and are coming
here as they replace one of the android staging drivers.
Otherwise, the normal staging mess. Lots of cleanups and a few new
drivers (some iio drivers, and the large csr wireless driver
abomination.)
