0244756edc ufs: sb mutex merge + mutex_destroy
Commit 788257d610 ("ufs: remove the BKL") replaced BKL with mutex
protection using functions lock_ufs, unlock_ufs and struct mutex 'mutex'
in sb_info.

Commit b6963327e0 ("ufs: drop lock/unlock super") removed lock/unlock
super and added struct mutex 's_lock' in sb_info.

Those 2 mutexes are generally locked/unlocked at the same time except in
allocation (balloc, ialloc).

This patch merges the 2 mutexes and propagates first commit solution.
It also adds mutex destruction before kfree during ufs_fill_super
failure and ufs_put_super.

b1de0d139c mm: convert some level-less printks to pr_*
printk is meant to be used with an associated log level.  There are some
instances of printk scattered around the mm code where the log level is
missing.  Add a log level and adhere to suggestions by
scripts/checkpatch.pl by moving to the pr_* macros.

Also add the typical pr_fmt definition so that print statements can be
easily traced back to the modules where they occur, correlated one with
another, etc.  This will require the removal of some (now redundant)
prefixes on a few print statements.

33041a0d76 mm: mark remap_file_pages() syscall as deprecated
The remap_file_pages() system call is used to create a nonlinear
mapping, that is, a mapping in which the pages of the file are mapped
into a nonsequential order in memory.  The advantage of using
remap_file_pages() over using repeated calls to mmap(2) is that the
former approach does not require the kernel to create additional VMA
(Virtual Memory Area) data structures.

Supporting of nonlinear mapping requires significant amount of
non-trivial code in kernel virtual memory subsystem including hot paths.
Also to get nonlinear mapping work kernel need a way to distinguish
normal page table entries from entries with file offset (pte_file).
Kernel reserves flag in PTE for this purpose.  PTE flags are scarce
resource especially on some CPU architectures.  It would be nice to free
up the flag for other usage.

Fortunately, there are not many users of remap_file_pages() in the wild.
It's only known that one enterprise RDBMS implementation uses the
syscall on 32-bit systems to map files bigger than can linearly fit into
32-bit virtual address space.  This use-case is not critical anymore
since 64-bit systems are widely available.

The plan is to deprecate the syscall and replace it with an emulation.
The emulation will create new VMAs instead of nonlinear mappings.  It's
going to work slower for rare users of remap_file_pages() but ABI is
preserved.

One side effect of emulation (apart from performance) is that user can
hit vm.max_map_count limit more easily due to additional VMAs.  See
comment for DEFAULT_MAX_MAP_COUNT for more details on the limit.

e231875ba7 mm: memcontrol: clean up memcg zoneinfo lookup
Memcg zoneinfo lookup sites have either the page, the zone, or the node
id and zone index, but sites that only have the zone have to look up the
node id and zone index themselves, whereas sites that already have those
two integers use a function for a simple pointer chase.

Provide mem_cgroup_zone_zoneinfo() that takes a zone pointer and let
sites that already have node id and zone index - all for each node, for
each zone iterators - use &memcg->nodeinfo[nid]->zoneinfo[zid].

Rename page_cgroup_zoneinfo() to mem_cgroup_page_zoneinfo() to match.

aedf95ea05 mm/memblock.c: call kmemleak directly from memblock_(alloc|free)
Kmemleak could ignore memory blocks allocated via memblock_alloc()
leading to false positives during scanning.  This patch adds the
corresponding callbacks and removes kmemleak_free_* calls in
mm/nobootmem.c to avoid duplication.

688eb988d1 vmscan: memcg: always use swappiness of the reclaimed memcg
Memory reclaim always uses swappiness of the reclaim target memcg
(origin of the memory pressure) or vm_swappiness for global memory
reclaim.  This behavior was consistent (except for difference between
global and hard limit reclaim) because swappiness was enforced to be
consistent within each memcg hierarchy.

After "mm: memcontrol: remove hierarchy restrictions for swappiness and
oom_control" each memcg can have its own swappiness independent of
hierarchical parents, though, so the consistency guarantee is gone.
This can lead to an unexpected behavior.  Say that a group is explicitly
configured to not swapout by memory.swappiness=0 but its memory gets
swapped out anyway when the memory pressure comes from its parent with a
It is also unexpected that the knob is meaningless without setting the
hard limit which would trigger the reclaim and enforce the swappiness.
There are setups where the hard limit is configured higher in the
hierarchy by an administrator and children groups are under control of
somebody else who is interested in the swapout behavior but not
necessarily about the memory limit.

From a semantic point of view swappiness is an attribute defining anon
vs.
 file proportional scanning of LRU which is memcg specific (unlike
charges which are propagated up the hierarchy) so it should be applied
to the particular memcg's LRU regardless where the memory pressure comes
from.

This patch removes vmscan_swappiness() and stores the swappiness into
the scan_control structure.  mem_cgroup_swappiness is then used to
provide the correct value before shrink_lruvec is called.  The global
vm_swappiness is used for the root memcg.

722773afd8 sysrq,rcu: suppress RCU stall warnings while sysrq runs
Some sysrq handlers can run for a long time, because they dump a lot of
data onto a serial console.  Having RCU stall warnings pop up in the
middle of them only makes the problem worse.

984d74a720 sysrq: rcu-ify __handle_sysrq
Echoing values into /proc/sysrq-trigger seems to be a popular way to get
information out of the kernel.  However, dumping information about
thousands of processes, or hundreds of CPUs to serial console can result
in IRQs being blocked for minutes, resulting in various kinds of cascade
failures.

The most common failure is due to interrupts being blocked for a very
long time.  This can lead to things like failed IO requests, and other
things the system cannot easily recover from.

This problem is easily fixable by making __handle_sysrq use RCU instead
of spin_lock_irqsave.

This leaves the warning that RCU grace periods have not elapsed for a
long time, but the system will come back from that automatically.

It also leaves sysrq-from-irq-context when the sysrq keys are pressed,
but that is probably desired since people want that to work in
situations where the system is already hosed.

The callers of register_sysrq_key and unregister_sysrq_key appear to be
capable of sleeping.

b951242a4f blackfin/ptrace: call find_vma with the mmap_sem held
Performing vma lookups without taking the mm->mmap_sem is asking for
trouble.  While doing the search, the vma in question can be modified or
even removed before returning to the caller.  Take the lock (shared) in
order to avoid races while iterating through the vmacache and/or rbtree.

9b44ee2eef ipc/sem.c: add a printk_once for semctl(GETNCNT/GETZCNT)
The actual Linux implementation for semctl(GETNCNT) and semctl(GETZCNT)
always (since 0.99.10) reported a thread as sleeping on all semaphores
that are listed in the semop() call.

The documented behavior (both in the Linux man page and in the Single
Unix Specification) is that a task should be reported on exactly one
semaphore: The semaphore that caused the thread to got to sleep.

This patch adds a pr_info_once() that is triggered if a thread hits the
relevant case.

The code triggers slightly too often, otherwise it would be necessary to
replicate the old code.  As there are no known users of GETNCNT or
GETZCNT, this is done to prevent unnecessary bloat.

The task that triggered is reported with name (tsk->comm) and pid.
