We should be passing "buf" here insead of "bv".  This is tricky because
it's not the same as kmap() and kunmap().  GCC does warn about it if you

3d14c5d2b6 ceph: factor out libceph from Ceph file system
This factors out protocol and low-level storage parts of ceph into a
separate libceph module living in net/ceph and include/linux/ceph.  This
is mostly a matter of moving files around.  However, a few key pieces
of the interface change as well:

 - ceph_client becomes ceph_fs_client and ceph_client, where the latter
   captures the mon and osd clients, and the fs_client gets the mds client
   and file system specific pieces.
 - Mount option parsing and debugfs setup is correspondingly broken into
   two pieces.
 - The mon client gets a generic handler callback for otherwise unknown
   messages (mds map, in this case).
 - The basic supported/required feature bits can be expanded (and are by
   ceph_fs_client).

No functional change, aside from some subtle error handling cases that got
cleaned up in the refactoring process.

9329672021 x86: Spread tlb flush vector between nodes
Currently flush tlb vector allocation is based on below equation:
	sender = smp_processor_id() % 8
This isn't optimal, CPUs from different node can have the same vector, this
causes a lot of lock contention. Instead, we can assign the same vectors to
CPUs from the same node, while different node has different vectors. This has
below advantages:
a. if there is lock contention, the lock contention is between CPUs from one
node. This should be much cheaper than the contention between nodes.
b. completely avoid lock contention between nodes. This especially benefits
kswapd, which is the biggest user of tlb flush, since kswapd sets its affinity
to specific node.

In my test, this could reduce > 20% CPU overhead in extreme case.The test
machine has 4 nodes and each node has 16 CPUs. I then bind each node's kswapd
to the first CPU of the node. I run a workload with 4 sequential mmap file
read thread. The files are empty sparse file. This workload will trigger a
lot of page reclaim and tlbflush. The kswapd bind is to easy trigger the
extreme tlb flush lock contention because otherwise kswapd keeps migrating
between CPUs of a node and I can't get stable result. Sure in real workload,
we can't always see so big tlb flush lock contention, but it's possible.

531295e63b virtio: console: Don't block entire guest if host doesn't read data
If the host is slow in reading data or doesn't read data at all,
blocking write calls not only blocked the program that called write()
but the entire guest itself.

To overcome this, let's not block till the host signals it has given
back the virtio ring element we passed it.  Instead, send the buffer to
the host and return to userspace.  This operation then becomes similar
to how non-blocking writes work, so let's use the existing code for this
path as well.

This code change also ensures blocking write calls do get blocked if
there's not enough room in the virtio ring as well as they don't return
-EAGAIN to userspace.

e1993ed642 spi/omap2_mcspi: disable channel after TX_ONLY transfer in PIO mode
In the TX_ONLY transfer, the SPI controller also receives data
simultaneously and saves them in the rx register. After the TX_ONLY
transfer, the rx register will hold the random data received during
the last tx transaction.

If the direct following transfer is RX_ONLY, this random data has the
possibility to affect this transfer like this:
  When the SPI controller is changed from TX_ONLY to RX_ONLY,
  the random data makes the rx register full immediately and
  triggers a dummy write automatically(in SPI RX_ONLY transfers,
  we need a dummy write to trigger the first transaction).

  So the first data received in the RX_ONLY transfer will be that
  random data instead of something meaningful.

We can avoid this by inserting a Disable/Re-enable toggle of the
channel after the TX_ONLY transfer, since it purges the rx register.

27afdf2008 apic, x86: Use BIOS settings for IBS and MCE threshold interrupt LVT offsets
We want the BIOS to setup the EILVT APIC registers. The offsets
were hardcoded and BIOS settings were overwritten by the OS.
Now, the subsystems for MCE threshold and IBS determine the LVT
offset from the registers the BIOS has setup. If the BIOS setup
is buggy on a family 10h system, a workaround enables IBS. If
the OS determines an invalid register setup, a "[Firmware Bug]:
" error message is reported.

We need this change also for upcomming cpu families.

a68c439b19 apic, x86: Check if EILVT APIC registers are available (AMD only)
This patch implements checks for the availability of LVT entries
(APIC500-530) and reserves it if used. The check becomes
necessary since we want to let the BIOS provide the LVT offsets.
 The offsets should be determined by the subsystems using it
like those for MCE threshold or IBS.  On K8 only offset 0
(APIC500) and MCE interrupts are supported. Beginning with
family 10h at least 4 offsets are available.

Since offsets must be consistent for all cores, we keep track of
the LVT offsets in software and reserve the offset for the same
vector also to be used on other cores. An offset is freed by
setting the entry to APIC_EILVT_MASKED.

If the BIOS is right, there should be no conflicts. Otherwise a
"[Firmware Bug]: ..." error message is generated. However, if
software does not properly determines the offsets, it is not
necessarily a BIOS bug.

617d34d9e5 x86, mm: Hold mm->page_table_lock while doing vmalloc_sync
Take mm->page_table_lock while syncing the vmalloc region.  This prevents
a race with the Xen pagetable pin/unpin code, which expects that the
page_table_lock is already held.  If this race occurs, then Xen can see
an inconsistent page type (a page can either be read/write or a pagetable
page, and pin/unpin converts it between them), which will cause either
the pin or the set_p[gm]d to fail; either will crash the kernel.

vmalloc_sync_all() should be called rarely, so this extra use of
page_table_lock should not interfere with its normal users.

The mm pointer is stashed in the pgd page's index field, as that won't
be otherwise used for pgds.

for O32.]

d39e072166 MAINTAINERS: Change list for ioc_serial to linux-serial.
IOC3 is also being used on SGI MIPS systems but this particular driver is
only being used on IA64 systems so linux-mips made no sense as a list.  Pat
also thinks linux-serial@vger.kernel.org is the better list.

6cc0cc4a35 SERIAL: ioc3_serial: Return -ENOMEM on memory allocation failure
In this code, 0 is returned on memory allocation failure, even though other
failures return -ENOMEM or other similar values.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression ret;
expression x,e1,e2,e3;
@@

ret = 0
... when != ret = e1
*x = \(kmalloc\|kcalloc\|kzalloc\)(...)
... when != ret = e2
if (x == NULL) { ... when != ret = e3
  return ret;
}
// </smpl>
