The release method for mds connections uses a backpointer to the
mds_client, so we need to flush the workqueue of any pending work (and
ceph_connection references) prior to freeing the mds_client. This fixes
an oops easily triggered under UML by
while true ; do mount ... ; umount ... ; done
Also fix an outdated comment: the flush in ceph_destroy_client only flushes
OSD connections out. This bug is basically an artifact of the ceph ->
ceph+libceph conversion.

Lingering requests are requests that are sent to the OSD normally but
tracked also after we get a successful request. This keeps the OSD
connection open and resends the original request if the object moves to
another OSD. The OSD can then send notification messages back to us
if another client initiates a notify.
This framework will be used by RBD so that the client gets notification
when a snapshot is created by another node or tool.

If we send a request to osd A, and the request's pg remaps to osd B and
then back to A in quick succession, we need to resend the request to A. The
old code was only calling kick_requests after processing all incremental
maps in a message, so it was very possible to not resend a request that
needed to be resent. This would make the osd eventually time out (at least
with the current default of osd timeouts enabled).
The correct approach is to scan requests on every map incremental. This
patch refactors the kick code in a few ways:
- all requests are either on req_lru (in flight), req_unsent (ready to
send), or req_notarget (currently map to no up osd)
- mapping always done by map_request (previous map_osds)
- if the mapping changes, we requeue. requests are resent only after all
map incrementals are processed.
- some osd reset code is moved out of kick_requests into a separate
function
- the "kick this osd" functionality is moved to kick_osd_requests, as it
is unrelated to scanning for request->pg->osd mapping changes

d_move puts the renamed dentry at the end of d_subdirs, screwing with our
cached dentry directory offsets. We were just clearing I_COMPLETE to avoid
any possibility of trouble. However, assigning the renamed dentry an
offset at the end of the directory (to match it's new d_subdirs position)
is sufficient to maintain correct behavior and hold onto I_COMPLETE.
This is especially important for workloads like rsync, which renames files
into place. Before, we would lose I_COMPLETE and do MDS lookups for each
file. With this patch we only talk to the MDS on create and rename.

oom_kill_process() starts with victim_points == 0. This means that
(most likely) any child has more points and can be killed erroneously.
Also, "children has a different mm" doesn't match the reality, we should
check child->mm != t->mm. This check is not exactly correct if t->mm ==
NULL but this doesn't really matter, oom_kill_task() will kill them
anyway.

Since commit 32fd6901 (MIPS: Alchemy: get rid of common/reset.c)
Alchemy-based boards use their own reset function. For MTX-1 and XXS1500,
the reset function pokes at the BCSR.SYSTEM_RESET register, but this does
not work. According to Bruno Randolf, this was not tested when written.
Previously, the generic au1000_restart() routine called the board specific
reset function, which for MTX-1 and XXS1500 did not work, but finally made
a jump to the reset vector, which really triggers a system restart. Fix
reboot for both targets by jumping to the reset vector.

To avoid forking usermode thread when creating an idle task, move fork_idle
to a work queue.
If kernel starts with maxcpus= option which does not bring all available
cpus online at boot time, idle tasks for offline cpus are not created. If
later offline cpus are hotplugged through sysfs, __cpu_up is called in
the context of the user task, and fork_idle copies its non-zero mm
pointer. This causes BUG() in per_cpu_trap_init.
This also avoids issues with resource limits of the CPU writing to sysfs,

ARM: 6205/1: perf: ensure counter delta is treated as unsigned
Hardware performance counters on ARM are 32-bits wide but atomic64_t
variables are used to represent counter data in the hw_perf_event structure.
The armpmu_event_update function right-shifts a signed 64-bit delta variable
and adds the result to the event count. This can lead to shifting in sign-bits
if the MSB of the 32-bit counter value is set. This results in perf output
such as:
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 20':
18446744073460670464 cycles <-- 0xFFFFFFFFF12A6000
7783773 instructions # 0.000 IPC
465 context-switches
161 page-faults
1172393 branches
20.154242147 seconds time elapsed
This patch ensures that the delta value is treated as unsigned so that the
right shift sets the upper bits to zero.

perf: Rework the PMU methods
Replace pmu::{enable,disable,start,stop,unthrottle} with
pmu::{add,del,start,stop}, all of which take a flags argument.
The new interface extends the capability to stop a counter while
keeping it scheduled on the PMU. We replace the throttled state with
the generic stopped state.
This also allows us to efficiently stop/start counters over certain
code paths (like IRQ handlers).
It also allows scheduling a counter without it starting, allowing for
a generic frozen state (useful for rotating stopped counters).
The stopped state is implemented in two different ways, depending on
how the architecture implemented the throttled state:
1) We disable the counter:
a) the pmu has per-counter enable bits, we flip that
b) we program a NOP event, preserving the counter state
2) We store the counter state and ignore all read/overflow events
For MIPSXX, the stopped state is implemented in the way of 1.b as above.

- e360adbe29
irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.
Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.
The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.
Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.
For MIPSXX, we need to call irq_work_run() at the tail of the perf IRQ
handler as described above.

The old prepare_ftrace_return() for MIPS is confused and have introduced
some problem. This patch cleans up the names of the arguments, variables
and related functions.
For MIPS, the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not really the
'selfpc' described in ftrace-design.txt but instead it is the self
return address. This did break the compatibility of the generic
interface but really reduced one unneeded calculation for to get the
current function name, the parent return address and the self return
address are enough, no need to tranform the self return address to the
self address.
But set_graph_function of function graph tracer is an exception, it does
need the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() as 'selfpc', for it
will use 'selfpc' to match user's configuration of function graph
entries, but in reality, it doesn't need the 'selfpc' but the recorded
ip address of the mcount calling site in the __mcount_loc section. So,
the 2nd argument of prepare_ftrace_return() is not important, the real
requirement is the right recorded ip address should be calculated and
assign to trace.func, this will be fixed in the next patches.
