<title>block: change config option name for cmdline partition parsing</title>

<content type='text'>
Recently commit bab55417b10c ("block: support embedded device command
line partition") introduced CONFIG_CMDLINE_PARSER.  However, that name
is too generic and sounds like it enables/disables generic kernel boot
arg processing, when it really is block specific.

Before this option becomes a part of a full/final release, add the BLK_
prefix to it so that it is clear in absence of any other context that it
is block specific.

In addition, fix up the following less critical items:
 - help text was not really at all helpful.
 - index file for Documentation was not updated
 - add the new arg to Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt
 - clarify wording in source comments

 "Highlights include:

   - Fix NFSv4 recovery so that it doesn't recover lost locks in cases
     such as lease loss due to a network partition, where doing so may
     result in data corruption.  Add a kernel parameter to control
     choice of legacy behaviour or not.
   - Performance improvements when 2 processes are writing to the same
     file.
   - Flush data to disk when an RPCSEC_GSS session timeout is imminent.
   - Implement NFSv4.1 SP4_MACH_CRED state protection to prevent other
     NFS clients from being able to manipulate our lease and file
     locking state.
   - Allow sharing of RPCSEC_GSS caches between different rpc clients.
   - Fix the broken NFSv4 security auto-negotiation between client and
     server.
   - Fix rmdir() to wait for outstanding sillyrename unlinks to complete
   - Add a tracepoint framework for debugging NFSv4 state recovery
     issues.
   - Add tracing to the generic NFS layer.
   - Add tracing for the SUNRPC socket connection state.
   - Clean up the rpc_pipefs mount/umount event management.

Rename the new 'recover_locks' kernel parameter to 'recover_lost_locks'
and change the default to 'false'. Document why in
Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

Move the 'recover_lost_locks' kernel parameter to fs/nfs/super.c to
make it easy to backport to kernels prior to 3.6.x, which don't have
a separate NFSv4 module.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:

 1) ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem rework and introduction
    of Intel Thunderbolt support on systems that use ACPI for signalling
    Thunderbolt hotplug events.  This also should make ACPIPHP work in
    some cases in which it was known to have problems.  From
    Rafael J Wysocki, Mika Westerberg and Kirill A Shutemov.

 2) ACPI core code cleanups and dock station support cleanups from
    Jiang Liu and Rafael J Wysocki.

 3) Fixes for locking problems related to ACPI device hotplug from
    Rafael J Wysocki.

 4) ACPICA update to version 20130725 includig fixes, cleanups, support
    for more than 256 GPEs per GPE block and a change to make the ACPI
    PM Timer optional (we've seen systems without the PM Timer in the
    field already).  One of the fixes, related to the DeRefOf operator,
    is necessary to prevent some Windows 8 oriented AML from causing
    problems to happen.  From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng, and Jung-uk Kim.

 5) Removal of the old and long deprecated /proc/acpi/event interface
    and related driver changes from Thomas Renninger.

 6) ACPI and Xen changes to make the reduced hardware sleep work with
    the latter from Ben Guthro.

 7) ACPI video driver cleanups and a blacklist of systems that should
    not tell the BIOS that they are compatible with Windows 8 (or ACPI
    backlight and possibly other things will not work on them).  From
    Felipe Contreras.

 8) Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Aaron Lu, Hanjun Guo,
    Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan, Lan Tianyu, Sachin Kamat, Tang Chen,
    Toshi Kani, and Wei Yongjun.

 9) cpufreq ondemand governor target frequency selection change to
    reduce oscillations between min and max frequencies (essentially,
    it causes the governor to choose target frequencies proportional
    to load) from Stratos Karafotis.

10) cpufreq fixes allowing sysfs attributes file permissions to be
    preserved over suspend/resume cycles Srivatsa S Bhat.

11) Removal of Device Tree parsing for CPU device nodes from multiple
    cpufreq drivers that required some changes related to
    of_get_cpu_node() to be made in a few architectures and in the
    driver core.  From Sudeep KarkadaNagesha.

12) cpufreq core fixes and cleanups related to mutual exclusion and
    driver module references from Viresh Kumar, Lukasz Majewski and
    Rafael J Wysocki.

13) Assorted cpufreq fixes and cleanups from Amit Daniel Kachhap,
    Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz, Hanjun Guo, Jingoo Han, Joseph Lo,
    Julia Lawall, Li Zhong, Mark Brown, Sascha Hauer, Stephen Boyd,
    Stratos Karafotis, and Viresh Kumar.

14) Fixes to prevent race conditions in coupled cpuidle from happening
    from Colin Cross.

15) cpuidle core fixes and cleanups from Daniel Lezcano and
    Tuukka Tikkanen.

16) Assorted cpuidle fixes and cleanups from Daniel Lezcano,
    Geert Uytterhoeven, Jingoo Han, Julia Lawall, Linus Walleij,
    and Sahara.

17) System sleep tracing changes from Todd E Brandt and Shuah Khan.

18) PNP subsystem conversion to using struct dev_pm_ops for power
    management from Shuah Khan.

Pull tty/serial driver patches from Greg KH:
 "Here's the big tty/serial driver pull request for 3.12-rc1.

  Lots of n_tty reworks to resolve some very long-standing issues,
  removing the 3-4 different locks that were taken for every character.
  This code has been beaten on for a long time in linux-next with no
  reported regressions.

  Other than that, a range of serial and tty driver updates and
  revisions.  Full details in the shortlog"

<title>memcg: get rid of swapaccount leftovers</title>

<content type='text'>
The swapaccount kernel parameter without any values has been removed by
commit a2c8990aed5a ("memsw: remove noswapaccount kernel parameter") but
it seems that we didn't get rid of all the left overs.

Make sure that menuconfig help text and kernel-parameters.txt are clear
about value for the paramter and remove the stalled comment which is not
very much useful on its own.
