 "This is a followup for block changes, that didn't make the initial
  pull request. It's a bit of a mixed bag, this contains:

   - A followup pull request from Sagi for NVMe. Outside of fixups for
     NVMe, it also includes a series for ensuring that we properly
     quiesce hardware queues when browsing live tags.

   - Set of integrity fixes from Dmitry (mostly), fixing various issues
     for folks using DIF/DIX.

   - Fix for a bug introduced in cciss, with the req init changes. From
     Christoph.

   - Fix for a bug in BFQ, from Paolo.

   - Two followup fixes for lightnvm/pblk from Javier.

   - Depth fix from Ming for blk-mq-sched.

   - Also from Ming, performance fix for mtip32xx that was introduced
     with the dynamic initialization of commands"

ARM: fix rd_size declaration

2017-07-10T23:32:34+00:00

The global variable 'rd_size' is declared as 'int' in source file
arch/arm/kernel/atags_parse.c and as 'unsigned long' in
drivers/block/brd.c.  Fix this inconsistency.

Additionally, remove the declarations of rd_image_start, rd_prompt and
rd_doload from parse_tag_ramdisk() since these duplicate existing
declarations in .

zram: constify attribute_group structures.

2017-07-10T23:32:33+00:00

attribute_groups are not supposed to change at runtime.  All functions
working with attribute_groups provided by  work with
const attribute_group.  So mark the non-const structs as const.

File size before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   8293	    841	      4	   9138	   23b2	drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.o

File size After adding 'const':
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename

Merge tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm

2017-07-07T16:44:06+00:00

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"libnvdimm updates for the latest ACPI and UEFI specifications. This
pull request also includes new 'struct dax_operations' enabling to
undo the abuse of copy_user_nocache() for copy operations to pmem.

The dax work originally missed 4.12 to address concerns raised by Al.

Summary:

- Introduce the _flushcache() family of memory copy helpers and use
them for persistent memory write operations on x86. The
_flushcache() semantic indicates that the cache is either bypassed
for the copy operation (movnt) or any lines dirtied by the copy
operation are written back (clwb, clflushopt, or clflush).

- Extend dax_operations with ->copy_from_iter() and ->flush()
operations. These operations and other infrastructure updates allow
all persistent memory specific dax functionality to be pushed into
libnvdimm and the pmem driver directly. It also allows dax-specific
sysfs attributes to be linked to a host device, for example:
/sys/block/pmem0/dax/write_cache

- Add support for the new NVDIMM platform/firmware mechanisms
introduced in ACPI 6.2 and UEFI 2.7. This support includes the v1.2
namespace label format, extensions to the address-range-scrub
command set, new error injection commands, and a new BTT
(block-translation-table) layout. These updates support inter-OS
and pre-OS compatibility.

- Fix a longstanding memory corruption bug in nfit_test.

- Make the pmem and nvdimm-region 'badblocks' sysfs files poll(2)
capable.

- Miscellaneous fixes and small updates across libnvdimm and the nfit
driver.

Pull misc compat stuff updates from Al Viro:
 "This part is basically untangling various compat stuff. Compat
  syscalls moved to their native counterparts, getting rid of quite a
  bit of double-copying and/or set_fs() uses. A lot of field-by-field
  copyin/copyout killed off.

   - kernel/compat.c is much closer to containing just the
     copyin/copyout of compat structs. Not all compat syscalls are gone
     from it yet, but it's getting there.

   - ipc/compat_mq.c killed off completely.

   - block/compat_ioctl.c cleaned up; floppy compat ioctls moved to
     drivers/block/floppy.c where they belong. Yes, there are several
     drivers that implement some of the same ioctls. Some are m68k and
     one is 32bit-only pmac. drivers/block/floppy.c is the only one in
     that bunch that can be built on biarch"

zram: count same page write as page_stored

2017-07-06T23:24:31+00:00

Regardless of whether it is same page or not, it's surely write and
stored to zram so we should increase pages_stored stat.  Otherwise, user
can see zero value via mm_stats although he writes a lot of pages to
zram.
