Currently, it is not easily possible to get TOS/DSCP value of packets from
an incoming TCP stream. The mechanism is there, IP_PKTOPTIONS getsockopt
with IP_RECVTOS set, the same way as incoming TTL can be queried. This is
not actually implemented for TOS, though.
This patch adds this functionality, both for IPv4 (IP_PKTOPTIONS) and IPv6
(IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS). For IPv4, like in the IP_RECVTTL case, the value of
the TOS field is stored from the other party's ACK.
This is needed for proxies which require DSCP transparency. One such example
is at http://zph.bratcheda.org/.

Says Jens:
"Time to push off some of the pending items. I really wanted to wait
until we had the regression nailed, but alas it's not quite there yet.
But I'm very confident that it's "just" a missing expire on exit, so
fix from Tejun should be fairly trivial. I'm headed out for a week on
the slopes.
- Killing the barrier part of mtip32xx. It doesn't really support
barriers, and it doesn't need them (writes are fully ordered).
- A few fixes from Dan Carpenter, preventing overflows of integer
multiplication.
- A fixup for loop, fixing a previous commit that didn't quite solve
the partial read problem from Dave Young.
- A bio integer overflow fix from Kent Overstreet.
- Improvement/fix of the door "keep locked" part of the cdrom shared
code from Paolo Benzini.
- A few cfq fixes from Shaohua Li.
- A fix for bsg sysfs warning when removing a file it did not create
from Stanislaw Gruszka.
- Two fixes for floppy from Vivek, preventing a crash.
- A few block core fixes from Tejun. One killing the over-optimized
ioc exit path, cleaning that up nicely. Two others fixing an oops
on elevator switch, due to calling into the scheduler merge check
code without holding the queue lock."

Somehow we ended up with duplicate hub feature #defines in ch11.h.
Tatyana Brokhman first created the USB 3.0 hub feature macros in 2.6.38
with commit 0eadcc0920 "usb: USB3.0 ch11
definitions". In 2.6.39, I modified a patch from John Youn that added
similar macros in a different place in the same file, and committed
dbe79bbe9d "USB 3.0 Hub Changes".
Some of the #defines used different names for the same values. Others
used exactly the same names with the same values, like these gems:
#define USB_PORT_FEAT_BH_PORT_RESET 28
...
#define USB_PORT_FEAT_BH_PORT_RESET 28
According to my very geeky husband (who looked it up in the C99 spec),
it is allowed to have object-like macros with duplicate names as long as
the replacement list is exactly the same. However, he recalled that
some compilers will give warnings when they find duplicate macros. It's
probably best to remove the duplicates in the stable tree, so that the
code compiles for everyone.
The macros are now fixed to move the feature requests that are specific
to USB 3.0 hubs into a new section (out of the USB 2.0 hub feature
section), and use the most common macro name.
This patch should be backported to 2.6.39.

Traditionally, any System-on-Chip based platform creates a flat list
of platform_devices directly under /sys/devices/platform.
In order to give these some better structure, this introduces a new
bus type for soc_devices that are registered with the new
soc_device_register() function. All devices that are on the same
chip should then be registered as child devices of the soc device.
The soc bus also exports a few standardised device attributes which
allow user space to query the specific type of soc.

Originally it was introduced to overcome a resource table limitation

Add a virtio-based inter-processor communication bus, which enables
kernel drivers to communicate with entities, running on remote
processors, over shared memory using a simple messaging protocol.
Every pair of AMP processors share two vrings, which are used to send
and receive the messages over shared memory.
The header of every message sent on the rpmsg bus contains src and dst
addresses, which make it possible to multiplex several rpmsg channels on
the same vring.
Every rpmsg channel is a device on this bus. When a channel is added,
and an appropriate rpmsg driver is found and probed, it is also assigned
a local rpmsg address, which is then bound to the driver's callback.
When inbound messages carry the local address of a bound driver,
its callback is invoked by the bus.
This patch provides a kernel interface only; user space interfaces
will be later exposed by kernel users of this rpmsg bus.

Modern SoCs typically employ a central symmetric multiprocessing (SMP)
application processor running Linux, with several other asymmetric
multiprocessing (AMP) heterogeneous processors running different instances
of operating system, whether Linux or any other flavor of real-time OS.
Booting a remote processor in an AMP configuration typically involves:
- Loading a firmware which contains the OS image
- Allocating and providing it required system resources (e.g. memory)
- Programming an IOMMU (when relevant)
- Powering on the device
This patch introduces a generic framework that allows drivers to do
that. In the future, this framework will also include runtime power
management and error recovery.

The IP_UNICAST_IF feature is needed by the Wine project. This patch
implements the feature by setting the outgoing interface in a similar
fashion to that of IP_MULTICAST_IF. A separate option is needed to
handle this feature since the existing options do not provide all of
the characteristics required by IP_UNICAST_IF, a summary is provided
below.
SO_BINDTODEVICE:
* SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative privileges, IP_UNICAST_IF
does not. From reading some old mailing list articles my
understanding is that SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative
privileges because it can override the administrator's routing
settings.
* The SO_BINDTODEVICE option restricts both outbound and inbound
traffic, IP_UNICAST_IF only impacts outbound traffic.
IP_PKTINFO:
* Since IP_PKTINFO and IP_UNICAST_IF are independent options,
implementing IP_UNICAST_IF with IP_PKTINFO will likely break some
applications.
* Implementing IP_UNICAST_IF on top of IP_PKTINFO significantly
complicates the Wine codebase and reduces the socket performance
(doing this requires a lot of extra communication between the
"server" and "user" layers).
bind():
* bind() does not work on broadcast packets, IP_UNICAST_IF is
specifically intended to work with broadcast packets.
* Like SO_BINDTODEVICE, bind() restricts both outbound and inbound
traffic.

Plug merge calls two elevator callbacks outside queue lock -
elevator_allow_merge_fn() and elevator_bio_merged_fn(). Although
attempt_plug_merge() suggests that elevator is guaranteed to be there
through the existing request on the plug list, nothing prevents plug
merge from calling into dying or initializing elevator.
For regular merges, bypass ensures elvpriv count to reach zero, which
in turn prevents merges as all !ELVPRIV requests get REQ_SOFTBARRIER
from forced back insertion. Plug merge doesn't check ELVPRIV, and, as
the requests haven't gone through elevator insertion yet, it doesn't
have SOFTBARRIER set allowing merges on a bypassed queue.
This, for example, leads to the following crash during elevator
switch.

There are multiple ways to fix this including making plug merge check
ELVPRIV; however,
* Calling into elevator outside queue lock is confusing and
error-prone.
* Requests on plug list aren't known to the elevator. They aren't on
the elevator yet, so there's no elevator specific state to update.
* Given the nature of plug merges - collecting bio's for the same
purpose from the same issuer - elevator specific restrictions aren't
applicable.
So, simply don't call into elevator methods from plug merge by moving
elv_bio_merged() from bio_attempt_*_merge() to blk_queue_bio(), and
using blk_try_merge() in attempt_plug_merge().
This is based on Jens' patch to skip elevator_allow_merge_fn() from
plug merge.
Note that this makes per-cgroup merged stats skip plug merging.

test. blk_try_merge() determines merge direction and expects the
caller to have tested elv_rq_merge_ok() previously.
elv_rq_merge_ok() now wraps blk_rq_merge_ok() and then calls
elv_iosched_allow_merge(). elv_try_merge() is removed and the two
callers are updated to call elv_rq_merge_ok() explicitly followed by
blk_try_merge(). While at it, make rq_merge_ok() functions return
bool.
This is to prepare for plug merge update and doesn't introduce any
behavior change.
This is based on Jens' patch to skip elevator_allow_merge_fn() from
plug merge.

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sameo/mfd-2.6:
mfd: Avoid twl6040-codec PLL reconfiguration when not needed
mfd: Store twl6040-codec mclk configuration
The qdisc supports two operations - plug and unplug. When the
qdisc receives a plug command via netlink request, packets arriving
henceforth are buffered until a corresponding unplug command is received.
Depending on the type of unplug command, the queue can be unplugged
indefinitely or selectively.
This qdisc can be used to implement output buffering, an essential
functionality required for consistent recovery in checkpoint based
fault-tolerance systems. Output buffering enables speculative execution
by allowing generated network traffic to be rolled back. It is used to
provide network protection for Xen Guests in the Remus high availability
project, available as part of Xen.
This module is generic enough to be used by any other system that wishes
to add speculative execution and output buffering to its applications.
This module was originally available in the linux 2.6.32 PV-OPS tree,
used as dom0 for Xen.

and http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Remus
Changes in V3:
* Removed debug output (printk) on queue overflow
* Added TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_INDEFINITE - that allows the user to
use this qdisc, for simple plug/unplug operations.
* Use of packet counts instead of pointers to keep track of
the buffers in the queue.

put_io_context() performed a complex trylock dancing to avoid
deferring ioc release to workqueue. It was also broken on UP because
trylock was always assumed to succeed which resulted in unbalanced
preemption count.
While there are ways to fix the UP breakage, even the most
pathological microbench (forced ioc allocation and tight fork/exit
loop) fails to show any appreciable performance benefit of the
optimization. Strip it out. If there turns out to be workloads which
are affected by this change, simpler optimization from the discussion
thread can be applied later.

This is the first step in making it device-tree aware and get rid of the
in-kernel EMC tables (of which there are none in mainline, thankfully).
Changes since v3:
* moved to devm_request_and_ioremap() in probe()
Changes since v2:
* D'oh -- missed a couple of variables that were added, never used and then
later removed in a later patch.
Changes since v1:
* Fixed messed up indentation
* Removed code that should be gone (was added here and removed later in series)

This patch removes the CONFIG_NFS_USE_NEW_IDMAPPER compile option.
First, the idmapper will attempt to map the id using /sbin/request-key
and nfsidmap. If this fails (if /etc/request-key.conf is not configured
properly) then the idmapper will call the legacy code to perform the
mapping. I left a comment stating where the legacy code begins to make
it easier for somebody to remove in the future.

Since the scheme of limiting the number of TCP slots to whatever will
fit in the current TCP window seems to be working well (Andy reports
getting within 20% of the 'iperf' send performance on a 10GigE link)
we should just let that be the default mode of operation.
Users may still set their own limits using the tcp_max_slot_table_entries
parameter if they need to.

Setting the task name is done within setup_new_exec() by accessing
bprm->filename. However this happens after flush_old_exec().
This may result in a use after free bug, flush_old_exec() may
"complete" vfork_done, which will wake up the parent which in turn
may free the passed in filename.
To fix this add a new tcomm field in struct linux_binprm which
contains the now early generated task name until it is used.
