Separate just the changing of mount flags (MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND) from full
remount because the mount data will get parsed with the new fs_context
stuff prior to doing a remount - and this causes the syscall to fail under
some circumstances.
To quote Eric's explanation:
[...] mount(..., MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND, ...) now validates the mount options
string, which breaks systemd unit files with ProtectControlGroups=yes
(e.g. systemd-networkd.service) when systemd does the following to
change a cgroup (v1) mount to read-only:
mount(NULL, "/run/systemd/unit-root/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd", NULL,
MS_RDONLY|MS_NOSUID|MS_NODEV|MS_NOEXEC|MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND, NULL)
... when the kernel has CONFIG_CGROUPS=y but no cgroup subsystems
enabled, since in that case the error "cgroup1: Need name or subsystem
set" is hit when the mount options string is empty.
Probably it doesn't make sense to validate the mount options string at
all in the MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND case, though maybe you had something else
in mind.
This is also worthwhile doing because we will need to add a mount_setattr()
syscall to take over the remount-bind function.

Powerpc has somewhat odd usage where ZONE_DMA is used for all memory on
common 64-bit configfs, and ZONE_DMA32 is used for 31-bit schemes.
Move to a scheme closer to what other architectures use (and I dare to
say the intent of the system):
- ZONE_DMA: optionally for memory < 31-bit (64-bit embedded only)
- ZONE_NORMAL: everything addressable by the kernel
- ZONE_HIGHMEM: memory > 32-bit for 32-bit kernels
Also provide information on how ZONE_DMA is used by defining
ARCH_ZONE_DMA_BITS.

This adds an optional extension infrastructure, with ispec (xfrm) and
bridge netfilter as first users.
objdiff shows no changes if kernel is built without xfrm and br_netfilter
support.
The third (planned future) user is Multipath TCP which is still
out-of-tree.
MPTCP needs to map logical mptcp sequence numbers to the tcp sequence
numbers used by individual subflows.
This DSS mapping is read/written from tcp option space on receive and
written to tcp option space on transmitted tcp packets that are part of
and MPTCP connection.
Extending skb_shared_info or adding a private data field to skb fclones
doesn't work for incoming skb, so a different DSS propagation method would
be required for the receive side.
mptcp has same requirements as secpath/bridge netfilter:
1. extension memory is released when the sk_buff is free'd.
2. data is shared after cloning an skb (clone inherits extension)
3. adding extension to an skb will COW the extension buffer if needed.
The "MPTCP upstreaming" effort adds SKB_EXT_MPTCP extension to store the
mapping for tx and rx processing.
Two new members are added to sk_buff:
1. 'active_extensions' byte (filling a hole), telling which extensions
are available for this skb.
This has two purposes.
a) avoids the need to initialize the pointer.
b) allows to "delete" an extension by clearing its bit
value in ->active_extensions.
While it would be possible to store the active_extensions byte
in the extension struct instead of sk_buff, there is one problem
with this:
When an extension has to be disabled, we can always clear the
bit in skb->active_extensions. But in case it would be stored in the
extension buffer itself, we might have to COW it first, if
we are dealing with a cloned skb. On kmalloc failure we would
be unable to turn an extension off.
2. extension pointer, located at the end of the sk_buff.
If the active_extensions byte is 0, the pointer is undefined,
it is not initialized on skb allocation.
This adds extra code to skb clone and free paths (to deal with
refcount/free of extension area) but this replaces similar code that
manages skb->nf_bridge and skb->sp structs in the followup patches of
the series.
It is possible to add support for extensions that are not preseved on
clones/copies.
To do this, it would be needed to define a bitmask of all extensions that
need copy/cow semantics, and change __skb_ext_copy() to check
->active_extensions & SKB_EXT_PRESERVE_ON_CLONE, then just set
->active_extensions to 0 on the new clone.
This isn't done here because all extensions that get added here
need the copy/cow semantics.
v2:
Allocate entire extension space using kmem_cache.
Upside is that this allows better tracking of used memory,
downside is that we will allocate more space than strictly needed in
most cases (its unlikely that all extensions are active/needed at same
time for same skb).
The allocated memory (except the small extension header) is not cleared,
so no additonal overhead aside from memory usage.
Avoid atomic_dec_and_test operation on skb_ext_put()
by using similar trick as kfree_skbmem() does with fclone_ref:
If recount is 1, there is no concurrent user and we can free right away.

SUNRPC has two sorts of credentials, both of which appear as
"struct rpc_cred".
There are "generic credentials" which are supplied by clients
such as NFS and passed in 'struct rpc_message' to indicate
which user should be used to authorize the request, and there
are low-level credentials such as AUTH_NULL, AUTH_UNIX, AUTH_GSS
which describe the credential to be sent over the wires.
This patch replaces all the generic credentials by 'struct cred'
pointers - the credential structure used throughout Linux.
For machine credentials, there is a special 'struct cred *' pointer
which is statically allocated and recognized where needed as
having a special meaning. A look-up of a low-level cred will
map this to a machine credential.

Rather than keying the access cache with 'struct rpc_cred',
use 'struct cred'. Then use cred_fscmp() to compare
credentials rather than comparing the raw pointer.
A benefit of this approach is that in the common case we avoid the
rpc_lookup_cred_nonblock() call which can be slow when the cred cache is large.
This also keeps many fewer items pinned in the rpc cred cache, so the
cred cache is less likely to get large.

NFS needs to know when a credential is about to expire so that
it can modify write-back behaviour to finish the write inside the
expiry time.
It currently uses functions in SUNRPC code which make use of a
fairly complex callback scheme and flags in the generic credientials.
As I am working to discard the generic credentials, this has to change.
This patch moves the logic into NFS, in part by finding and caching
the low-level credential in the open_context. We then make direct
cred-api calls on that.
This makes the code much simpler and removes a dependency on generic
rpc credentials.

The credential passed in rpc_message.rpc_cred is always a
generic credential except in one instance.
When gss_destroying_context() calls rpc_call_null(), it passes
a specific credential that it needs to destroy.
In this case the RPC acts *on* the credential rather than
being authorized by it.
This special case deserves explicit support and providing that will
mean that rpc_message.rpc_cred is *always* generic, allowing
some optimizations.
So add "tk_op_cred" to rpc_task and "rpc_op_cred" to the setup data.
Use this to pass the cred down from rpc_call_null(), and have
rpcauth_bindcred() notice it and bind it in place.

In almost all cases the credential stored in rpc_message.rpc_cred
is a "generic" credential. One of the two expections is when an
AUTH_NULL credential is used such as for RPC ping requests.
To improve consistency, don't pass an explicit credential in
these cases, but instead pass NULL and set a task flag,
similar to RPC_TASK_ROOTCREDS, which requests that NULL credentials

When NFS creates a machine credential, it is a "generic" credential,
not tied to any auth protocol, and is really just a container for
the princpal name.
This doesn't get linked to a genuine credential until rpcauth_bindcred()
is called.
The lookup always succeeds, so various places that test if the machine
credential is NULL, are pointless.
As a step towards getting rid of generic credentials, this patch gets
rid of generic machine credentials. The nfs_client and rpc_client
just hold a pointer to a constant principal name.
When a machine credential is wanted, a special static 'struct rpc_cred'
pointer is used. rpcauth_bindcred() recognizes this, finds the
principal from the client, and binds the correct credential.

NFSv4 state management tries a root credential when no machine
credential is available, as can happen with kerberos.
It does this by replacing the cl_machine_cred with a root credential.
This means that any user of the machine credential needs to take
a lock while getting a reference to the machine credential, which is
a little cumbersome.
So introduce an explicit cl_root_cred, and never free either
credential until client shutdown. This means that no locking
is needed to reference these credentials. Future patches
will make use of this.
This is only a temporary addition. both cl_machine_cred and
cl_root_cred will disappear later in the series.

The cred is a machine_cred iff ->principal is set, so there is no
need for the extra flag.
There is one case which deserves some
explanation. nfs4_root_machine_cred() calls rpc_lookup_machine_cred()
with a NULL principal name which results in not getting a machine
credential, but getting a root credential instead.
This appears to be what is expected of the caller, and is
clearly the result provided by both auth_unix and auth_gss
which already ignore the flag.

The SUNRPC credential framework was put together before
Linux has 'struct cred'. Now that we have it, it makes sense to
use it.
This first step just includes a suitable 'struct cred *' pointer
in every 'struct auth_cred' and almost every 'struct rpc_cred'.
The rpc_cred used for auth_null has a NULL 'struct cred *' as nothing
else really makes sense.
For rpc_cred, the pointer is reference counted.
For auth_cred it isn't. struct auth_cred are either allocated on
the stack, in which case the thread owns a reference to the auth,
or are part of 'struct generic_cred' in which case gc_base owns the
reference, and "acred" shares it.

Devices which use managed interrupts usually have two classes of
interrupts:
- Interrupts for multiple device queues
- Interrupts for general device management
Currently both classes are treated the same way, i.e. as managed
interrupts. The general interrupts get the default affinity mask assigned
while the device queue interrupts are spread out over the possible CPUs.
Treating the general interrupts as managed is both a limitation and under
certain circumstances a bug. Assume the following situation:
default_irq_affinity = 4..7
So if CPUs 4-7 are offlined, then the core code will shut down the device
management interrupts because the last CPU in their affinity mask went
offline.
It's also a limitation because it's desired to allow manual placement of
the general device interrupts for various reasons. If they are marked
managed then the interrupt affinity setting from both user and kernel space
is disabled. That limitation was reported by Kashyap and Sumit.
Expand struct irq_affinity_desc with a new bit 'is_managed' which is set
for truly managed interrupts (queue interrupts) and cleared for the general
device interrupts.

The interrupt affinity management uses straight cpumask pointers to convey
the automatically assigned affinity masks for managed interrupts. The core
interrupt descriptor allocation also decides based on the pointer being non
NULL whether an interrupt is managed or not.
Devices which use managed interrupts usually have two classes of
interrupts:
- Interrupts for multiple device queues
- Interrupts for general device management
Currently both classes are treated the same way, i.e. as managed
interrupts. The general interrupts get the default affinity mask assigned
while the device queue interrupts are spread out over the possible CPUs.
Treating the general interrupts as managed is both a limitation and under
certain circumstances a bug. Assume the following situation:
default_irq_affinity = 4..7
So if CPUs 4-7 are offlined, then the core code will shut down the device
management interrupts because the last CPU in their affinity mask went
offline.
It's also a limitation because it's desired to allow manual placement of
the general device interrupts for various reasons. If they are marked
managed then the interrupt affinity setting from both user and kernel space
is disabled.
To remedy that situation it's required to convey more information than the
cpumasks through various interfaces related to interrupt descriptor
allocation.
Instead of adding yet another argument, create a new data structure
'irq_affinity_desc' which for now just contains the cpumask. This struct
can be expanded to convey auxilliary information in the next step.
No functional change, just preparatory work.

PM-runtime uses the timer infrastructure for autosuspend. This implies
that the minimum time before autosuspending a device is in the range
of 1 tick included to 2 ticks excluded
-On arm64 this means between 4ms and 8ms with default jiffies
configuration
-And on arm, it is between 10ms and 20ms
These values are quite high for embedded systems which sometimes want
the duration to be in the range of 1 ms.
It is possible to switch autosuspend over to using hrtimers to get
finer granularity for short durations and take advantage of slack to
retain some margins and get long timeouts with minimum wakeups.
On an arm64 platform that uses 1ms for autosuspending timeout of its
GPU, idle power is reduced by 10% with hrtimer.
The latency impact on arm64 hikey octo cores is:
- mark_last_busy: from 1.11 us to 1.25 us
- rpm_suspend: from 15.54 us to 15.38 us
[Only the code path of rpm_suspend() that starts hrtimer has been

One of the rules associated with fdget() is that ksys_close() must
not be called between the fdget() and the fdput(). There is a case
where this requirement is not met in the binder driver which results
in the reference count dropping to 0 when the device is still in
use. This can result in use-after-free or other issues.
If userpace has passed a file-descriptor for the binder driver using
a BINDER_TYPE_FDA object, then kys_close() is called on it when
handling a binder_ioctl(BC_FREE_BUFFER) command. This violates
the assumptions for using fdget().
The problem is fixed by deferring the close using task_work_add(). A
new variant of __close_fd() was created that returns a struct file
with a reference. The fput() is deferred instead of using ksys_close().

Now that the the SCSI layer replaced the use of the cluster flag with
segment size limits and the DMA boundary we can remove the cluster flag
from the block layer.

Most SCSI drivers want to enable "clustering", that is merging of
segments so that they might span more than a single page. Remove the
ENABLE_CLUSTERING define, and require drivers to explicitly set
DISABLE_CLUSTERING to disable this feature.
