Pull aio changes from Ben LaHaise:
 "First off, sorry for this pull request being late in the merge window.
  Al had raised a couple of concerns about 2 items in the series below.
  I addressed the first issue (the race introduced by Gu's use of
  mm_populate()), but he has not provided any further details on how he
  wants to rework the anon_inode.c changes (which were sent out months
  ago but have yet to be commented on).

  The bulk of the changes have been sitting in the -next tree for a few
  months, with all the issues raised being addressed"

3af3351676 memcg: avoid overflow caused by PAGE_ALIGN
Since PAGE_ALIGN is aligning up(the next page boundary), so after
PAGE_ALIGN, the value might be overflow, such as write the MAX value to
*.limit_in_bytes.

  $ cat /cgroup/memory/memory.limit_in_bytes
  18446744073709551615

  # echo 18446744073709551615 > /cgroup/memory/memory.limit_in_bytes
  bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument

Some user programs might depend on such behaviours(like libcg, we read
the value in snapshot, then use the value to reset cgroup later), and
that will cause confusion.  So we need to fix it.

02b9735c12 ACPI and power management fixes for 3.12-rc1
1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) fixes related to spurious events
 
   After the recent ACPIPHP changes we've seen some interesting breakage
   on a system that triggers device check notifications during boot for
   non-existing devices.  Although those notifications are really
   spurious, we should be able to deal with them nevertheless and that
   shouldn't introduce too much overhead.  Four commits to make that
   work properly.
 
  2) Memory hotplug and hibernation mutual exclusion rework
 
   This was maent to be a cleanup, but it happens to fix a classical
   ABBA deadlock between system suspend/hibernation and ACPI memory
   hotplug which is possible if they are started roughly at the same
   time.  Three commits rework memory hotplug so that it doesn't
   acquire pm_mutex and make hibernation use device_hotplug_lock
   which prevents it from racing with memory hotplug.
 
  3) ACPI Intel LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem) driver crash fix
 
   The ACPI LPSS driver crashes during boot on Apple Macbook Air with
   Haswell that has slightly unusual BIOS configuration in which one
   of the LPSS device's _CRS method doesn't return all of the information
   expected by the driver.  Fix from Mika Westerberg, for stable.
 
  4) ACPICA fix related to Store->ArgX operation
 
   AML interpreter fix for obscure breakage that causes AML to be
   executed incorrectly on some machines (observed in practice).  From
   Bob Moore.
 
  5) ACPI core fix for PCI ACPI device objects lookup
 
   There still are cases in which there is more than one ACPI device
   object matching a given PCI device and we don't choose the one that
   the BIOS expects us to choose, so this makes the lookup take more
   criteria into account in those cases.
 
  6) Fix to prevent cpuidle from crashing in some rare cases
 
   If the result of cpuidle_get_driver() is NULL, which can happen on
   some systems, cpuidle_driver_ref() will crash trying to use that
   pointer and the Daniel Fu's fix prevents that from happening.
 
  7) cpufreq fixes related to CPU hotplug
 
   Stephen Boyd reported a number of concurrency problems with cpufreq
   related to CPU hotplug which are addressed by a series of fixes
   from Srivatsa S Bhat and Viresh Kumar.
 
  8) cpufreq fix for time conversion in time_in_state attribute
 
   Time conversion carried out by cpufreq when user space attempts to
   read /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state won't
   work correcty if cputime_t doesn't map directly to jiffies.  Fix
   from Andreas Schwab.
 
  9) Revert of a troublesome cpufreq commit
 
   Commit 7c30ed5 (cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are
   serialized) was intended to address some known concurrency problems
   in cpufreq related to the ordering of transitions, but unfortunately
   it introduced several problems of its own, so I decided to revert it
   now and address the original problems later in a more robust way.
 
 10) Intel Haswell CPU models for intel_pstate from Nell Hardcastle.
 
 11) cpufreq fixes related to system suspend/resume
 
   The recent cpufreq changes that made it preserve CPU sysfs attributes
   over suspend/resume cycles introduced a possible NULL pointer
   dereference that caused it to crash during the second attempt to
   suspend.  Three commits from Srivatsa S Bhat fix that problem and a
   couple of related issues.
 
 12) cpufreq locking fix
 
   cpufreq_policy_restore() should acquire the lock for reading, but
   it acquires it for writing.  Fix from Lan Tianyu.

878b5a6efd uprobes: Fix utask->depth accounting in handle_trampoline()
Currently utask->depth is simply the number of allocated/pending
return_instance's in uprobe_task->return_instances list.

handle_trampoline() should decrement this counter every time we
handle/free an instance, but due to typo it does this only if
->chained == T. This means that in the likely case this counter
is never decremented and the probed task can't report more than
MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH events.

6723734cdf panic: call panic handlers before kmsg_dump
Since the panic handlers may produce additional information (via printk)
for the kernel log, it should be reported as part of the panic output
saved by kmsg_dump().  Without this re-ordering, nothing that adds
information to a panic will show up in pstore's view when kmsg_dump runs,
and is therefore not visible to crash reporting tools that examine pstore
output.

73af963f9f __ptrace_may_access() should not deny sub-threads
__ptrace_may_access() checks get_dumpable/ptrace_has_cap/etc if task !=
current, this can can lead to surprising results.

For example, a sub-thread can't readlink("/proc/self/exe") if the
executable is not readable.  setup_new_exec()->would_dump() notices that
inode_permission(MAY_READ) fails and then it does
set_dumpable(suid_dumpable).  After that get_dumpable() fails.

(It is not clear why proc_pid_readlink() checks get_dumpable(), perhaps we
could add PTRACE_MODE_NODUMPABLE)

Change __ptrace_may_access() to use same_thread_group() instead of "task
== current".  Any security check is pointless when the tasks share the
same ->mm.

af96397de8 kprobes: allow to specify custom allocator for insn caches
The current two insn slot caches both use module_alloc/module_free to
allocate and free insn slot cache pages.

For s390 this is not sufficient since there is the need to allocate insn
slots that are either within the vmalloc module area or within dma memory.

Therefore add a mechanism which allows to specify an own allocator for an
own insn slot cache.

c802d64a35 kprobes: unify insn caches
The current kpropes insn caches allocate memory areas for insn slots
with module_alloc().  The assumption is that the kernel image and module
area are both within the same +/- 2GB memory area.

This however is not true for s390 where the kernel image resides within
the first 2GB (DMA memory area), but the module area is far away in the
vmalloc area, usually somewhere close below the 4TB area.

For new pc relative instructions s390 needs insn slots that are within
+/- 2GB of each area.  That way we can patch displacements of
pc-relative instructions within the insn slots just like x86 and
powerpc.

The module area works already with the normal insn slot allocator,
however there is currently no way to get insn slots that are within the
first 2GB on s390 (aka DMA area).

Therefore this patch set modifies the kprobes insn slot cache code in
order to allow to specify a custom allocator for the insn slot cache
pages.  In addition architecure can now have private insn slot caches
withhout the need to modify common code.

Patch 1 unifies and simplifies the current insn and optinsn caches
        implementation. This is a preparation which allows to add more
        insn caches in a simple way.

Patch 2 adds the possibility to specify a custom allocator.

Patch 3 makes s390 use the new insn slot mechanisms and adds support for
        pc-relative instructions with long displacements.

This patch (of 3):

The two insn caches (insn, and optinsn) each have an own mutex and
alloc/free functions (get_[opt]insn_slot() / free_[opt]insn_slot()).

Since there is the need for yet another insn cache which satifies dma
allocations on s390, unify and simplify the current implementation:

- Move the per insn cache mutex into struct kprobe_insn_cache.
- Move the alloc/free functions to kprobe.h so they are simply
  wrappers for the generic __get_insn_slot/__free_insn_slot functions.
  The implementation is done with a DEFINE_INSN_CACHE_OPS() macro
  which provides the alloc/free functions for each cache if needed.
- move the struct kprobe_insn_cache to kprobe.h which allows to generate
  architecture specific insn slot caches outside of the core kprobes
  code.

202da40057 kernel/smp.c: quit unconditionally enabling irqs in on_each_cpu_mask().
As in commit f21afc25f9 ("smp.h: Use local_irq_{save,restore}() in
!SMP version of on_each_cpu()"), we don't want to enable irqs if they
are not already enabled.

I don't know of any bugs currently caused by this unconditional
local_irq_enable(), but I want to use this function in MIPS/OCTEON early
boot (when we have early_boot_irqs_disabled).  This also makes this
function have similar semantics to on_each_cpu() which is good in
itself.

In reality, everybody apart from PowerPC and S390 just does cpu_relax()
here, so make that the default behaviour and allow it to be overridden

3ddc5b46a8 kernel-wide: fix missing validations on __get/__put/__copy_to/__copy_from_user()
I found the following pattern that leads in to interesting findings:

  grep -r "ret.*|=.*__put_user" *
  grep -r "ret.*|=.*__get_user" *
  grep -r "ret.*|=.*__copy" *

The __put_user() calls in compat_ioctl.c, ptrace compat, signal compat,
since those appear in compat code, we could probably expect the kernel
addresses not to be reachable in the lower 32-bit range, so I think they
might not be exploitable.

For the "__get_user" cases, I don't think those are exploitable: the worse
that can happen is that the kernel will copy kernel memory into in-kernel
buffers, and will fail immediately afterward.

The alpha csum_partial_copy_from_user() seems to be missing the
access_ok() check entirely.  The fix is inspired from x86.  This could
lead to information leak on alpha.  I also noticed that many architectures
map csum_partial_copy_from_user() to csum_partial_copy_generic(), but I
wonder if the latter is performing the access checks on every
architectures.

40a0d32d1e fork: unify and tighten up CLONE_NEWUSER/CLONE_NEWPID checks
do_fork() denies CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_PARENT if NEWUSER | NEWPID.

Then later copy_process() denies CLONE_SIGHAND if the new process will
be in a different pid namespace (task_active_pid_ns() doesn't match
current->nsproxy->pid_ns).

This looks confusing and inconsistent.  CLONE_NEWPID is very similar to
the case when ->pid_ns was already unshared, we want the same
restrictions so copy_process() should also nack CLONE_PARENT.

And it would be better to deny CLONE_NEWUSER && CLONE_SIGHAND as well
just for consistency.

Kill the "CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID" check in do_fork() and change
copy_process() to do the same check along with ->pid_ns check we already
have.

5167246a8a pidns: kill the unnecessary CLONE_NEWPID in copy_process()
Commit 8382fcac1b ("pidns: Outlaw thread creation after
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)") nacks CLONE_NEWPID if the forking process
unshared pid_ns.  This is correct but unnecessary, copy_pid_ns() does
the same check.

Remove the CLONE_NEWPID check to cleanup the code and prepare for the
next change.

Test-case:

	static int child(void *arg)
	{
		return 0;
	}

	static char stack[16 * 1024];

	int main(void)
	{
		pid_t pid;

		assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID) == 0);

		pid = clone(child, stack + sizeof(stack) / 2,
				CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, NULL);
		assert(pid < 0 && errno == EINVAL);

		return 0;
	}

clone(CLONE_NEWPID) correctly fails with or without this change.

Commit 8382fcac1b ("pidns: Outlaw thread creation after
unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)") nacks CLONE_VM if the forking process unshared
pid_ns, this obviously breaks vfork:

	int main(void)
	{
		assert(unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER | CLONE_NEWPID) == 0);
		assert(vfork() >= 0);
		_exit(0);
		return 0;
	}

fails without this patch.

Change this check to use CLONE_SIGHAND instead.  This also forbids
CLONE_THREAD automatically, and this is what the comment implies.

We could probably even drop CLONE_SIGHAND and use CLONE_THREAD, but it
would be safer to not do this.  The current check denies CLONE_SIGHAND
implicitely and there is no reason to change this.

Eric said "CLONE_SIGHAND is fine.  CLONE_THREAD would be even better.
Having shared signal handling between two different pid namespaces is
the case that we are fundamentally guarding against."

3942c07ccf fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long
This series reworks our current object cache shrinking infrastructure in
two main ways:

 * Noticing that a lot of users copy and paste their own version of LRU
   lists for objects, we put some effort in providing a generic version.
   It is modeled after the filesystem users: dentries, inodes, and xfs
   (for various tasks), but we expect that other users could benefit in
   the near future with little or no modification.  Let us know if you
   have any issues.

 * The underlying list_lru being proposed automatically and
   transparently keeps the elements in per-node lists, and is able to
   manipulate the node lists individually.  Given this infrastructure, we
   are able to modify the up-to-now hammer called shrink_slab to proceed
   with node-reclaim instead of always searching memory from all over like
   it has been doing.

Per-node lru lists are also expected to lead to less contention in the lru
locks on multi-node scans, since we are now no longer fighting for a
global lock.  The locks usually disappear from the profilers with this
change.

Although we have no official benchmarks for this version - be our guest to
independently evaluate this - earlier versions of this series were
performance tested (details at
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.mm/100537) yielding no
visible performance regressions while yielding a better qualitative
behavior in NUMA machines.

With this infrastructure in place, we can use the list_lru entry point to
provide memcg isolation and per-memcg targeted reclaim.  Historically,
those two pieces of work have been posted together.  This version presents
only the infrastructure work, deferring the memcg work for a later time,
so we can focus on getting this part tested.  You can see more about the
history of such work at http://lwn.net/Articles/552769/

Dave Chinner (18):
  dcache: convert dentry_stat.nr_unused to per-cpu counters
  dentry: move to per-sb LRU locks
  dcache: remove dentries from LRU before putting on dispose list
  mm: new shrinker API

  list: add a new LRU list type
  inode: convert inode lru list to generic lru list code.

  xfs: convert buftarg LRU to generic code
  xfs: rework buffer dispose list tracking

  fs: convert fs shrinkers to new scan/count API
  drivers: convert shrinkers to new count/scan API
  shrinker: convert remaining shrinkers to count/scan API
  shrinker: Kill old ->shrink API.

Glauber Costa (7):
  fs: bump inode and dentry counters to long
  super: fix calculation of shrinkable objects for small numbers
  list_lru: per-node API
  vmscan: per-node deferred work
  i915: bail out earlier when shrinker cannot acquire mutex
  hugepage: convert huge zero page shrinker to new shrinker API
  list_lru: dynamically adjust node arrays

This patch:

There are situations in very large machines in which we can have a large
quantity of dirty inodes, unused dentries, etc.  This is particularly true
when umounting a filesystem, where eventually since every live object will
eventually be discarded.

Dave Chinner reported a problem with this while experimenting with the
shrinker revamp patchset.  So we believe it is time for a change.  This
patch just moves int to longs.  Machines where it matters should have a
big long anyway.

b0cff9d88c sched: Fix load balancing performance regression in should_we_balance()
Commit 23f0d20 ("sched: Factor out code to should_we_balance()")
introduces the should_we_balance() function.  This function should
return 1 if this cpu is appropriate for balancing. But the newly
introduced code doesn't do so, it returns 0 instead of 1.

This introduces performance regression, reported by Dave Chinner:

                        v4 filesystem           v5 filesystem
3.11+xfsdev:            220k files/s            225k files/s
3.12-git                180k files/s            185k files/s
3.12-git-revert         245k files/s            247k files/s

You can find more detailed information at:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/10/1

This patch corrects the return value of should_we_balance()
function as orignally intended.

With this patch, Dave Chinner reports that the regression is gone:

                        v4 filesystem           v5 filesystem
3.11+xfsdev:            220k files/s            225k files/s
3.12-git                180k files/s            185k files/s
3.12-git-revert         245k files/s            247k files/s

7eb69529cb Not much changes for the 3.12 merge window. The major tracing changes
are still in flux, and will have to wait for 3.13.
 
 The changes for 3.12 are mostly clean ups and minor fixes.
 
 H. Peter Anvin added a check to x86_32 static function tracing that
 helps a small segment of the kernel community.
 
 Oleg Nesterov had a few changes from 3.11, but were mostly clean ups
 and not worth pushing in the -rc time frame.
 
 Li Zefan had small clean up with annotating a raw_init with __init.
 
 I fixed a slight race in updating function callbacks, but the race
 is so small and the bug that happens when it occurs is so minor it's
 not even worth pushing to stable.
 
 The only real enhancement is from Alexander Z Lam that made the
 tracing_cpumask work for trace buffer instances, instead of them all
 sharing a global cpumask.

a0a5a0561f ftrace/rcu: Do not trace debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled()
The function debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() is part of the RCU lockdep
debugging, and is called very frequently. I found that if I enable
a lot of debugging and run the function graph tracer, this
function can cause a live lock of the system.

We don't usually trace lockdep infrastructure, no need to trace
this either.
