commit a60ae81e5e5918138703f22427dd8f2445985b55 upstream.

Fix mips_cm_max_vp_width for UP kernels where it previously referenced
smp_num_siblings, which is not declared for UP kernels. This led to
build errors such as the following:

  drivers/built-in.o: In function `$L446':
  irq-mips-gic.c:(.text+0x1994): undefined reference to `smp_num_siblings'
  drivers/built-in.o:irq-mips-gic.c:(.text+0x199c): more undefined references to `smp_num_siblings' follow

On UP kernels simply return 1, leaving the reference to smp_num_siblings
in place only for SMP kernels.

commit c1892c37769cf89c7e7ba57528ae2ccb5d153c9b upstream.

file_remove_privs() is called with inode lock on file_inode(), which
proceeds to calling notify_change() on file-&gt;f_path.dentry.  Which triggers
the WARN_ON_ONCE(!inode_is_locked(inode)) in addition to deadlocking later
when ovl_setattr tries to lock the underlying inode again.

Fix this mess by not mixing the layers, but doing everything on underlying
dentry/inode.

commit a36aa80f3cb2540fb1dbad6240852de4365a2e82 upstream.

Driver initialization tries to request a hub (GTH) driver module from
its probe callback, resulting in a deadlock.

This patch solves the problem by adding a deferred work for requesting
the hub module.

commit 06708f81528725148473c0869d6af5f809c6824b upstream.

Commit aebea2ba0f74 ("net: mvneta: fix Tx interrupt delay") intended to
set coalescing threshold to a value guaranteeing interrupt generation
per each sent packet, so that buffers can be released with no delay.

In fact setting threshold to '1' was wrong, because it causes interrupt
every two packets. According to the documentation a reason behind it is
following - interrupt occurs once sent buffers counter reaches a value,
which is higher than one specified in MVNETA_TXQ_SIZE_REG(q). This
behavior was confirmed during tests. Also when testing the SoC working
as a NAS device, better performance was observed with int-per-packet,
as it strongly depends on the fact that all transmitted packets are
released immediately.

This commit enables NETA controller work in interrupt per sent packet mode
by setting coalescing threshold to 0.

<title>libceph: apply new_state before new_up_client on incrementals</title>

commit 930c532869774ebf8af9efe9484c597f896a7d46 upstream.

Currently, osd_weight and osd_state fields are updated in the encoding
order.  This is wrong, because an incremental map may look like e.g.

    new_up_client: { osd=6, addr=... } # set osd_state and addr
    new_state: { osd=6, xorstate=EXISTS } # clear osd_state

Suppose osd6's current osd_state is EXISTS (i.e. osd6 is down).  After
applying new_up_client, osd_state is changed to EXISTS | UP.  Carrying
on with the new_state update, we flip EXISTS and leave osd6 in a weird
"!EXISTS but UP" state.  A non-existent OSD is considered down by the
mapping code

2087    for (i = 0; i &lt; pg-&gt;pg_temp.len; i++) {
2088            if (ceph_osd_is_down(osdmap, pg-&gt;pg_temp.osds[i])) {
2089                    if (ceph_can_shift_osds(pi))
2090                            continue;
2091
2092                    temp-&gt;osds[temp-&gt;size++] = CRUSH_ITEM_NONE;

and so requests get directed to the second OSD in the set instead of
the first, resulting in OSD-side errors like:

[WRN] : client.4239 192.168.122.21:0/2444980242 misdirected client.4239.1:2827 pg 2.5df899f2 to osd.4 not [1,4,6] in e680/680

and hung rbds on the client:

[  493.566367] rbd: rbd0: write 400000 at 11cc00000 (0)
[  493.566805] rbd: rbd0:   result -6 xferred 400000
[  493.567011] blk_update_request: I/O error, dev rbd0, sector 9330688

The fix is to decouple application from the decoding and:
- apply new_weight first
- apply new_state before new_up_client
- twiddle osd_state flags if marking in
- clear out some of the state if osd is destroyed

commit 1488a1e3828d60d74c9b802a05e24c0487babe4e upstream.

Since 34b48db66e08 ("block: remove artifical max_hw_sectors cap"),
max_sectors is no longer limited to BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS and LITE-ON
CX1-JB256-HP keeps timing out with higher max_sectors.  Revert it to
the previous value.
