<title>zram: introduce an aged idle interface</title>

<id>755804d16965888bb069a4cd39005b97ba9e11fd</id>
<content type='text'>
This change introduces an aged idle interface to the existing idle sysfs
file for zram.

When CONFIG_ZRAM_MEMORY_TRACKING is enabled the idle file now also
accepts an integer argument.  This integer is the age (in seconds) of
pages to mark as idle.  The idle file still supports 'all' as it always
has.  This new approach allows for much more control over which pages
get marked as idle.

snprintf() returns the number of bytes it would have printed if there
were space.  But it does not count the NUL terminator.  So that means
that if "count == copied" then this has already overflowed by one
character.

This bug likely isn't super harmful in real life.

The read_from_bdev_async is not called on atomic context.  So GFP_NOIO
is available rather than GFP_ATOMIC.  If there were reclaimable pages
with GFP_NOIO, we can avoid allocation failure and page fault failure.

Commit bf9c0538e485b591 ("ataflop: use a separate gendisk for each media
format") introduced ataflop_probe_lock mutex, but forgot to unlock the
mutex when atari_floppy_init() (i.e. module loading) succeeded. This will
result in double lock deadlock if ataflop_probe() is called. Also,
unregister_blkdev() must not be called from atari_floppy_init() with
ataflop_probe_lock held when atari_floppy_init() failed, for
ataflop_probe() waits for ataflop_probe_lock with major_names_lock held
(i.e. AB-BA deadlock).

__register_blkdev() needs to be called last in order to avoid calling
ataflop_probe() when atari_floppy_init() is about to fail, for memory for
completing already-started ataflop_probe() safely will be released as soon
as atari_floppy_init() released ataflop_probe_lock mutex.

As with commit 8b52d8be86d72308 ("loop: reorder loop_exit"),
unregister_blkdev() needs to be called first in order to avoid calling
ataflop_alloc_disk() from ataflop_probe() after del_gendisk() from
atari_floppy_exit().

By relocating __register_blkdev() / unregister_blkdev() as explained above,
we can remove ataflop_probe_lock mutex, for probe function and __exit
function are serialized by major_names_lock mutex.

We never checked for errors on add_disk() as this function
returned void. Now that this is fixed, use the shiny new
error handling.

We re-use the same free tag call, so we also add a label for
that as well.
