Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.

The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid
syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp
filters because the said filters never had the change to run since
the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused
problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid
syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always
run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we
return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have
been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall
syscall code.

The --interval-print parameter was limited to 100ms. However, for
example, 10ms is required to do sophisticated bandwidth analysis using
uncore events.
The test shows that the overhead of the system-wide uncore monitoring
with 10ms interval is only ~2%. So this patch reduces the minimal
interval-print allowd to 10ms.
But 10ms may not work well for all cases. For example, when the
cpus/threads number is very large, for system-wide core event monitoring
the overhead could be high.
To handle this issue, a warning will be displayed when the
interval-print is set between 10ms to 100ms. So users can make a
decision according to their specific cases.

When the client goes to return a delegation, it should always update any
nfs4_state currently set up to use that delegation stateid to instead
use the open stateid. It already does do this in some cases,
particularly in the state recovery code, but not currently when the
delegation is voluntarily returned (e.g. in advance of a RENAME). This
causes the client to try to continue using the delegation stateid after
the DELEGRETURN, e.g. in LAYOUTGET.

Currently, we don't test if the state owner is in use before we try to
recover it. The problem is that if the refcount is zero, then the
state owner will be waiting on the lru list for garbage collection.
The expectation in that case is that if you bump the refcount, then
you must also remove the state owner from the lru list. Otherwise
the call to nfs4_put_state_owner will corrupt that list by trying
to add our state owner a second time.
Avoid the whole problem by just skipping state owners that hold no
state.

Currently, we are crediting all the calls to nfs_writepages_callback()
(i.e. the nfs_writepages() callback) to nfs_writepage(). Aside from
being inconsistent with the behaviour of the equivalent readpage/readpages

When run "perf record -e", the number of samples showed up is wrong on some

perf record -e probe_libc:malloc -a ls perf.data
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.036 MB perf.data (13829241621624967218 samples) ]
Actually, "perf script" just shows 21 samples. The number of samples is also
absurd since samples is long type, but it is printed as PRIu64.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
During development it was found that a number of builds would panic
during the kernel init process, more specifically in 'delayed_fput()'.
The panic showed the kernel trying to access a memory address of
'0xb7fdc00' while traversing the 'delayed_fput_list' structure.
Comparing this memory address to the value of the pointer used on
builds that did not panic confirmed that the pointer on crashing
builds must have been corrupted at some stage earlier in the init
process.
By traversing the list earlier and earlier in the code it was found
that 'plat_mem_setup()' was responsible for corrupting the list.
Specifically the line:
memory = cvmx_bootmem_phy_alloc(mem_alloc_size,
__pa_symbol(&__init_end), -1,
0x100000,
CVMX_BOOTMEM_FLAG_NO_LOCKING);
Which would eventually call:
cvmx_bootmem_phy_set_size(new_ent_addr,
cvmx_bootmem_phy_get_size
(ent_addr) -
(desired_min_addr -
ent_addr));
Where 'new_ent_addr'=0x4800000 (the address of 'delayed_fput_list')
and the second argument (size)=0xb7fdc00 (the address causing the
kernel panic). The job of this part of 'plat_mem_setup()' is to
allocate chunks of memory for the kernel to use. At the start of
each chunk of memory the size of the chunk is written, hence the
value 0xb7fdc00 is written onto memory at 0x4800000, therefore the
kernel panics when it goes back to access 'delayed_fput_list' later
on in the initialisation process.
On builds that were not crashing it was found that the compiler had
placed 'delayed_fput_list' at 0x4800008, meaning it wasn't corrupted
(but something else in memory was overwritten).
As can be seen in the first function call above the code begins to
allocate chunks of memory beginning from the symbol '__init_end'.
The MIPS linker script (vmlinux.lds.S) however defines the .bss
section to begin after '__init_end'. Therefore memory within the
.bss section is allocated to the kernel to use (System.map shows
'delayed_fput_list' and other kernel structures to be in .bss).
To stop the kernel panic (and the .bss section being corrupted)
memory should begin being allocated from the symbol '_end'.

Commit 1a3d59579b ("MIPS: Tidy up FPU context switching") removed FP
context saving from the asm-written resume function in favour of reusing
existing code to perform the same task. However it only removed the FP
context saving code from the r4k_switch.S implementation of resume.
Remove it from the r2300_switch.S implementation too in order to prevent
attempting to save the FP context twice, which would likely lead to an
exception from the second save because the FPU had already been disabled
by the first save.
This patch has only been build tested, using rbtx49xx_defconfig.

Pull MMC fixes from Ulf Hansson:
"Here are some mmc fixes intended for v4.3 rc4:
MMC core:
- Allow users of mmc_of_parse() to succeed when CONFIG_GPIOLIB is
unset
- Prevent infinite loop of re-tuning for CRC-errors for CMD19 and
CMD21
MMC host:
- pxamci: Fix issues with card detect
- sunxi: Fix clk-delay settings"

Pull IOVA fixes from David Woodhouse:
"The main fix here is the first one, fixing the over-allocation of
size-aligned requests. The other patches simply make the existing
IOVA code available to users other than the Intel VT-d driver, with no
functional change.
I concede the latter really *should* have been submitted during the
merge window, but since it's basically risk-free and people are
waiting to build on top of it and it's my fault I didn't get it in, I
(and they) would be grateful if you'd take it"

The entire bpf_jit_asm.S is written in noreorder mode because "we know
better" according to a comment. This also prevented the assembler from
throwing in the required NOPs for MIPS I processors which have no
load-use interlock, thus the load's consumer might end up using the
old value of the register from prior to the load.
Fixed by putting the assembler in reorder mode for just the affected
load instructions. This is not enough for gas to actually try to be
clever by looking at the next instruction and inserting a nop only
when needed but as the comment said "we know better", so getting gas
to unconditionally emit a NOP is just right in this case and prevents
adding further ifdefery.

Passing -1 to bitmap_storage_alloc() causes page->index to be set to
-1, which is quite problematic.
So only pass ->cluster_slot if mddev_is_clustered().

close_sync() needs to set conf->next_resync to a large, but safe value
below MaxSector and use it to determine whether or not to set
start_next_window in wait_barrier()
Solution suggested by Neil Brown.

If faulty disks of an array are more than allowed degraded number, the
array enters error handling. It will be marked as read-only with
MD_CHANGE_PENDING/RECOVERY_NEEDED set. But currently recovery doesn't
clear CHANGE_PENDING bit for read-only array. If MD_CHANGE_PENDING is
set for a raid5 array, all returned IO will be hold on a list till the
bit is clear. But recovery nevery clears this bit, the IO is always in
pending state and nevery finish. This has bad effects like upper layer
can't get an IO error and the array can't be stopped.

Calling e.g. blk_queue_max_hw_sectors() after calls to
disk_stack_limits() discards the settings determined by
disk_stack_limits().
So we need to make those calls first.

When need_this_block probably shouldn't be called when there
are more than 2 failed devices, we really don't want it to try
indexing beyond the end of the failed_num[] of fdev[] arrays.
So limit the loops to at most 2 iterations.

handle_failed_stripe() makes the stripe fail, eg, all IO will return
with a failure, but it doesn't update stripe_head_state. Later
handle_stripe() has special handling for raid6 for handle_stripe_fill().
That check before handle_stripe_fill() doesn't skip the failed stripe
and we get a kernel crash in need_this_block. This patch clear the
analysis state to make sure no functions wrongly called after
handle_failed_stripe()
