Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:

 - Revert two cpuidle commits added during the 3.8 development cycle
   that turn out to have introduced a significant performance regression
   as requested by Jeremy Eder.

 - The recent patches that made the freezer less heavy-weight introduced
   a regression causing user-space-driven hibernation using the ioctl()
   interface to block indefinitely when the hibernate process executes
   try_to_freeze().  Fix from Colin Cross addresses this by adding a
   process flag to mark the hibernate/suspend process to inform the
   freezer that that process should be ignored.

 - One of the recent cpufreq reverts uncovered a problem in the core
   causing the cpufreq driver module refcount to become negative after a
   system suspend-resume cycle.  Fix from Rafael J Wysocki.

 - The evaluation of the ACPI battery _BIX method has never worked
   correctly, because the commit that added support for it forgot to
   take the "Revision" field in the return package into account.  As a
   result, the reading of battery info doesn't work at all on some
   systems, which is addressed by a fix from Lan Tianyu.

vmpressure: make sure there are no events queued after memcg is offlined

2013-07-31T21:41:04+00:00

vmpressure is called synchronously from reclaim where the target_memcg
is guaranteed to be alive but the eventfd is signaled from the work
queue context.  This means that memcg (along with vmpressure structure
which is embedded into it) might go away while the work item is pending
which would result in use-after-release bug.

We have two possible ways how to fix this.  Either vmpressure pins memcg
before it schedules vmpr->work and unpin it in vmpressure_work_fn or
explicitely flush the work item from the css_offline context (as
suggested by Tejun).

This patch implements the later one and it introduces vmpressure_cleanup
which flushes the vmpressure work queue item item.  It hooks into
mem_cgroup_css_offline after the memcg itself is cleaned up.

There is nothing that can sleep inside critical sections protected by
this lock and those sections are really small so there doesn't make much
sense to use mutex for them.  Change the log to a spinlock

mlx5_core: Implement new initialization sequence

2013-07-31T21:12:24+00:00

Introduce enbale_hca and disable_hca commands to signify when the
driver starts or ceases to operate on the device.

In addition the driver will use boot and init pages count; boot pages
is required to allow firmware to complete boot commands and the other
to complete init hca.  Command interface revision is bumped to 4 to
enforce using supported firmware.

This patch breaks compatibility with old versions of firmware (< 4);
however, the first GA firmware we will publish will support version 4
so this should not be a problem.

freezer: set PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag on tasks that call freeze_processes

2013-07-30T12:05:06+00:00

Calling freeze_processes sets a global flag that will cause any
process that calls try_to_freeze to enter the refrigerator.  It
skips sending a signal to the current task, but if the current
task ever hits try_to_freeze, all threads will be frozen and the
system will deadlock.

Set a new flag, PF_SUSPEND_TASK, on the task that calls
freeze_processes.  The flag notifies the freezer that the thread
is involved in suspend and should not be frozen.  Also add a
WARN_ON in thaw_processes if the caller does not have the
PF_SUSPEND_TASK flag set to catch if a different task calls
thaw_processes than the one that called freeze_processes, leaving
a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK permanently set on it.

Threads that spawn off a task with PF_SUSPEND_TASK set (which
swsusp does) will also have PF_SUSPEND_TASK set, preventing them
from freezing while they are helping with suspend, but they need
to be dead by the time suspend is triggered, otherwise they may
run when userspace is expected to be frozen.  Add a WARN_ON in
thaw_processes if more than one thread has the PF_SUSPEND_TASK
flag set.
