Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Lots of activity in target land the last months.

  The highlights include:

   - Convert fabric drivers tree-wide to target_register_template() (hch
     + bart)

   - iser-target hardening fixes + v1.0 improvements (sagi)

   - Convert iscsi_thread_set usage to kthread.h + kill
     iscsi_target_tq.c (sagi + nab)

   - Add support for T10-PI WRITE_STRIP + READ_INSERT operation (mkp +
     sagi + nab)

   - DIF fixes for CONFIG_DEBUG_SG=y + UNMAP file emulation (akinobu +
     sagi + mkp)

   - Extended TCMU ABI v2 for future BIDI + DIF support (andy + ilias)

   - Fix COMPARE_AND_WRITE handling for NO_ALLLOC drivers (hch + nab)

  Thanks to everyone who contributed this round with new features,
  bug-reports, fixes, cleanups and improvements.

  Looking forward, it's currently shaping up to be a busy v4.2 as well"

Pull initial ACPI support for arm64 from Will Deacon:
 "This series introduces preliminary ACPI 5.1 support to the arm64
  kernel using the "hardware reduced" profile.  We don't support any
  peripherals yet, so it's fairly limited in scope:

   - MEMORY init (UEFI)

   - ACPI discovery (RSDP via UEFI)

   - CPU init (FADT)

   - GIC init (MADT)

   - SMP boot (MADT + PSCI)

   - ACPI Kconfig options (dependent on EXPERT)

  ACPI for arm64 has been in development for a while now and hardware
  has been available that can boot with either FDT or ACPI tables.  This
  has been made possible by both changes to the ACPI spec to cater for
  ARM-based machines (known as "hardware-reduced" in ACPI parlance) but
  also a Linaro-driven effort to get this supported on top of the Linux
  kernel.  This pull request is the result of that work.

  These changes allow us to initialise the CPUs, interrupt controller,
  and timers via ACPI tables, with memory information and cmdline coming
  from EFI.  We don't support a hybrid ACPI/FDT scheme.  Of course,
  there is still plenty of work to do (a serial console would be nice!)
  but I expect that to happen on a per-driver basis after this core
  series has been merged.

  Anyway, the diff stat here is fairly horrible, but splitting this up
  and merging it via all the different subsystems would have been
  extremely painful.  Instead, we've got all the relevant Acks in place
  and I've not seen anything other than trivial (Kconfig) conflicts in
  -next (for completeness, I've included my resolution below).  Nearly
  half of the insertions fall under Documentation/.

  So, we'll see how this goes.  Right now, it all depends on EXPERT and
  I fully expect people to use FDT by default for the immediate future"

If the device being added to Xen is not contained in the ACPI table,
walk the PCI device tree to find a parent that is contained in the ACPI
table before finding the PXM information from this device.

Previously, it would try to get a handle for the device, then the
device's bridge, then the physfn.  This changes the order so that it
tries to get a handle for the device, then the physfn, the walks up the
PCI device tree.

Originally Xen PV drivers only use single-page ring to pass along
information. This might limit the throughput between frontend and
backend.

The patch extends Xenbus driver to support multi-page ring, which in
general should improve throughput if ring is the bottleneck. Changes to
various frontend / backend to adapt to the new interface are also
included.

Affected Xen drivers:
* blkfront/back
* netfront/back
* pcifront/back
* scsifront/back
* vtpmfront

The interface is documented, as before, in xenbus_client.c.

<title>cleancache: forbid overriding cleancache_ops</title>

<id>53d85c98566535d7bc69470f008d7dcb09a0fec9</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, cleancache_register_ops returns the previous value of
cleancache_ops to allow chaining.  However, chaining, as it is
implemented now, is extremely dangerous due to possible pool id
collisions.  Suppose, a new cleancache driver is registered after the
previous one assigned an id to a super block.  If the new driver assigns
the same id to another super block, which is perfectly possible, we will
have two different filesystems using the same id.  No matter if the new
driver implements chaining or not, we are likely to get data corruption
with such a configuration eventually.

This patch therefore disables the ability to override cleancache_ops
altogether as potentially dangerous.  If there is already cleancache
driver registered, all further calls to cleancache_register_ops will
return EBUSY.  Since no user of cleancache implements chaining, we only
need to make minor changes to the code outside the cleancache core.

Instead of calling target_fabric_configfs_init() +
target_fabric_configfs_register() / target_fabric_configfs_deregister()
target_fabric_configfs_free() from every target driver, rewrite the API
so that we have simple register/unregister functions that operate on
a const operations vector.

This patch also fixes a memory leak in several target drivers. Several
target drivers namely called target_fabric_configfs_deregister()
without calling target_fabric_configfs_free().

A large part of this patch is based on earlier changes from
Bart Van Assche &lt;bart.vanassche@sandisk.com&gt;.

(v2: Add a new TF_CIT_SETUP_DRV macro so that the core configfs code
can declare attributes as either core only or for drivers)

<title>XEN / ACPI: Make XEN ACPI depend on X86</title>

When ACPI is enabled on ARM64, XEN ACPI will also compiled
into the kernel, but XEN ACPI is x86 dependent, so introduce
CONFIG_XEN_ACPI to make it depend on x86 before XEN ACPI is
functional on ARM64.

Commit 25b884a83d487fd62c3de7ac1ab5549979188482 ("x86/xen: set
regions above the end of RAM as 1:1") introduced a regression.

To be able to add memory pages which were added via memory hotplug to
a pv domain, the pages must be "invalid" instead of "identity" in the
p2m list before they can be added.
