commit 2c80cd57c74339889a8752b20862a16c28929c3a upstream.

list_lru_count_node() iterates over all memcgs to get the total number of
entries on the node but it can race with memcg_drain_all_list_lrus(),
which migrates the entries from a dead cgroup to another.  This can return
incorrect number of entries from list_lru_count_node().

Fix this by keeping track of entries per node and simply return it in
list_lru_count_node().

<title>compiler, clang: always inline when CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING is disabled</title>

commit 9a04dbcfb33b4012d0ce8c0282f1e3ca694675b1 upstream.

The motivation for commit abb2ea7dfd82 ("compiler, clang: suppress
warning for unused static inline functions") was to suppress clang's
warnings about unused static inline functions.

For configs without CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING enabled, such as any non-x86
architecture, `inline' in the kernel implies that
__attribute__((always_inline)) is used.

Some code depends on that behavior, see
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/6/13/918:

  net/built-in.o: In function `__xchg_mb':
  arch/arm64/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:99: undefined reference to `__compiletime_assert_99'
  arch/arm64/include/asm/cmpxchg.h:99: undefined reference to `__compiletime_assert_99

The full fix would be to identify these breakages and annotate the
functions with __always_inline instead of `inline'.  But since we are
late in the 4.12-rc cycle, simply carry forward the forced inlining
behavior and work toward moving arm64, and other architectures, toward
CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING behavior.

[ Upstream commit 2a0165a034ac024b60cca49c61e46f4afa2e4d98 ]

Draining the health workqueue will ignore future health works including
the one that report hardware failure and thus we can't enter error state
Instead cancel the recovery flow and make sure only recovery flow won't
be scheduled.

&gt; BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at           (null)
&gt; IP: _raw_spin_lock+0xc/0x30
&gt; PGD 0

Fix this by taking a reference to the super block in proc_sys_prune_dcache.

The superblock reference is the core of the fix however the sysctl_inodes
list is converted to a hlist so that hlist_del_init_rcu may be used.  This
allows proc_sys_prune_dache to remove inodes the sysctl_inodes list, while
not causing problems for proc_sys_evict_inode when if it later choses to
remove the inode from the sysctl_inodes list.  Removing inodes from the
sysctl_inodes list allows proc_sys_prune_dcache to have a progress
guarantee, while still being able to drop all locks.  The fact that
head-&gt;unregistering is set in start_unregistering ensures that no more
inodes will be added to the the sysctl_inodes list.

Previously the code did a dance where it delayed calling iput until the
next entry in the list was being considered to ensure the inode remained on
the sysctl_inodes list until the next entry was walked to.  The structure
of the loop in this patch does not need that so is much easier to
understand and maintain.

More users for for_each_cpu_wrap() have appeared. Promote the construct
to generic cpumask interface.

The implementation is slightly modified to reduce arguments.

commit f77af15165847406b15d8f70c382c4cb15846b2a upstream.

The TPM class has some common shutdown code that must be executed for
all drivers. This adds some needed functionality for that.

commit f77af15165847406b15d8f70c382c4cb15846b2a upstream.

The TPM class has some common shutdown code that must be executed for
all drivers. This adds some needed functionality for that.

commit 7cf916bd639bd26db7214f2205bccdb4b9306256 upstream.

The current definition is wrong. This breaks my upcoming
Aspeed virtual hub driver.

<title>block: provide bio_uninit() free freeing integrity/task associations</title>

Wen reports significant memory leaks with DIF and O_DIRECT:

"With nvme devive + T10 enabled, On a system it has 256GB and started
logging /proc/meminfo &amp; /proc/slabinfo for every minute and in an hour
it increased by 15968128 kB or ~15+GB.. Approximately 256 MB / minute
leaking.

/proc/meminfo | grep SUnreclaim...

SUnreclaim:      6752128 kB
SUnreclaim:      6874880 kB
SUnreclaim:      7238080 kB
....
SUnreclaim:     22307264 kB
SUnreclaim:     22485888 kB
SUnreclaim:     22720256 kB

When testcases with T10 enabled call into __blkdev_direct_IO_simple,
code doesn't free memory allocated by bio_integrity_alloc. The patch
fixes the issue. HTX has been run with +60 hours without failure."

Since __blkdev_direct_IO_simple() allocates the bio on the stack, it
doesn't go through the regular bio free. This means that any ancillary
data allocated with the bio through the stack is not freed. Hence, we
can leak the integrity data associated with the bio, if the device is
using DIF/DIX.

Fix this by providing a bio_uninit() and export it, so that we can use
it to free this data. Note that this is a minimal fix for this issue.
Any current user of bio's that are allocated outside of
bio_alloc_bioset() suffers from this issue, most notably some drivers.
We will fix those in a more comprehensive patch for 4.13. This also
means that the commit marked as being fixed by this isn't the real
culprit, it's just the most obvious one out there.
