Pull MMC fixes from Ulf Hansson:
 "MMC core:

   - Fix driver strength selection when selecting hs400es

   - Delete bounce buffer handling:

     This change fixes a problem related to how bounce buffers are being
     allocated. However, instead of trying to fix that, let's just
     remove the mmc bounce buffer code altogether, as it has practically
     no use.

  MMC host:

   - meson-gx: A couple of fixes related to clock/phase/tuning

   - sdhci-xenon: Fix clock resource by adding an optional bus clock"

Pull watchddog clean-up and fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The watchdog (hard/softlockup detector) code is pretty much broken in
its current state. The patch series addresses this by removing all
duct tape and refactoring it into a workable state.

The reasons why I ask for inclusion that late in the cycle are:

1) The code causes lockdep splats vs. hotplug locking which get
reported over and over. Unfortunately there is no easy fix.

2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken

3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working
watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't
ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the
solution would be easy to backport.

4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got
delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu()
surprise which we discussed recently.

Changes vs. V1:

- Addressed your review points

- Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late

- Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point
in the series. Now they match what they do in the end.

- Fixed a 'unused variable' warning, which got not detected by the
intel robot. I triggered it when trying all possible related config
combinations manually. Randconfig testing seems not random enough.

The changes have been tested by and reviewed by Don Zickus and tested
and acked by Micheal Ellerman for powerpc"

powerpc/watchdog: Make use of watchdog_nmi_probe()

2017-10-04T08:53:54+00:00

The rework of the core hotplug code triggers the WARN_ON in start_wd_cpu()
on powerpc because it is called multiple times for the boot CPU.

The first call is via:

  start_wd_on_cpu+0x80/0x2f0
  watchdog_nmi_reconfigure+0x124/0x170
  softlockup_reconfigure_threads+0x110/0x130
  lockup_detector_init+0xbc/0xe0
  kernel_init_freeable+0x18c/0x37c
  kernel_init+0x2c/0x160
  ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xbc

And then again via the CPU hotplug registration:

  start_wd_on_cpu+0x80/0x2f0
  cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x194/0x620
  cpuhp_thread_fun+0x7c/0x1b0
  smpboot_thread_fn+0x290/0x2a0
  kthread+0x168/0x1b0
  ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xbc

This can be avoided by setting up the cpu hotplug state with nocalls and
move the initialization to the watchdog_nmi_probe() function. That
initializes the hotplug callbacks without invoking the callback and the
following core initialization function then configures the watchdog for the
online CPUs (in this case CPU0) via softlockup_reconfigure_threads().

watchdog/core, powerpc: Replace watchdog_nmi_reconfigure()

2017-10-04T08:53:53+00:00

The recent cleanup of the watchdog code split watchdog_nmi_reconfigure()
into two stages. One to stop the NMI and one to restart it after
reconfiguration. That was done by adding a boolean 'run' argument to the
code, which is functionally correct but not necessarily a piece of art.

Replace it by two explicit functions: watchdog_nmi_stop() and
watchdog_nmi_start().

mmc: Delete bounce buffer handling

2017-10-04T08:22:55+00:00

In may, Steven sent a patch deleting the bounce buffer handling
and the CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option.

I chose the less invasive path of making it a runtime config
option, and we merged that successfully for kernel v4.12.

The code is however just standing in the way and taking up
space for seemingly no gain on any systems in wide use today.

Pierre says the code was there to improve speed on TI SDHCI
controllers on certain HP laptops and possibly some Ricoh
controllers as well. Early SDHCI controllers lacked the
scatter-gather feature, which made software bounce buffers
a significant speed boost.

We are clearly talking about the list of SDHCI PCI-based
MMC/SD card readers found in the pci_ids[] list in
drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-pci-core.c.

The TI SDHCI derivative is not supported by the upstream
kernel. This leaves the Ricoh.

What we can however notice is that the x86 defconfigs in the
kernel did not enable CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option, which
means that any such laptop would have to have a custom
configured kernel to actually take advantage of this
bounce buffer speed-up. It simply seems like there was
a speed optimization for the Ricoh controllers that noone
was using. (I have not checked the distro defconfigs but
I am pretty sure the situation is the same there.)

Bounce buffers increased performance on the OMAP HSMMC
at one point, and was part of the original submission in
commit a45c6cb81647 ("[ARM] 5369/1: omap mmc: Add new
   omap hsmmc controller for 2430 and 34xx, v3")

This optimization was removed in
commit 0ccd76d4c236 ("omap_hsmmc: Implement scatter-gather
   emulation")
which found that scatter-gather emulation provided even
better performance.

The same was introduced for SDHCI in
commit 2134a922c6e7 ("sdhci: scatter-gather (ADMA) support")

I am pretty positively convinced that software
scatter-gather emulation will do for any host controller what
the bounce buffers were doing. Essentially, the bounce buffer
was a reimplementation of software scatter-gather-emulation in
the MMC subsystem, and it should be done away with.

include/linux/fs.h: fix comment about struct address_space

2017-10-04T00:54:26+00:00

Before commit 9c5d760b8d22 ("mm: split gfp_mask and mapping flags into
separate fields") the private_* fields of struct adrress_space were
grouped together and using "ditto" in comments describing the last
fields was correct.

With introduction of gpf_mask between private_lock and private_list
"ditto" references the wrong description.

Fix it by using the elaborate description.

mm/memory_hotplug: change pfn_to_section_nr/section_nr_to_pfn macro to inline function

2017-10-04T00:54:25+00:00

pfn_to_section_nr() and section_nr_to_pfn() are defined as macro.
pfn_to_section_nr() has no issue even if it is defined as macro.  But
section_nr_to_pfn() has overflow issue if sec is defined as int.

section_nr_to_pfn() just shifts sec by PFN_SECTION_SHIFT.  If sec is
defined as unsigned long, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 64 bit value.
But if sec is defined as int, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 32 bit
value.

__remove_section() calculates start_pfn using section_nr_to_pfn() and
scn_nr defined as int.  So if hot-removed memory address is over 16TB,
overflow issue occurs and section_nr_to_pfn() does not calculate correct
pfn.

To make callers use proper arg, the patch changes the macros to inline
functions.

exec: load_script: kill the onstack interp[BINPRM_BUF_SIZE] array

2017-10-04T00:54:25+00:00

Patch series "exec: binfmt_misc: fix use-after-free, kill
iname[BINPRM_BUF_SIZE]".

It looks like this code was always wrong, then commit 948b701a607f
("binfmt_misc: add persistent opened binary handler for containers")
added more problems.

This patch (of 6):

load_script() can simply use i_name instead, it points into bprm->buf[]
and nobody can change this memory until we call prepare_binprm().

The only complication is that we need to also change the signature of
bprm_change_interp() but this change looks good too.

While at it, do whitespace/style cleanups.

NOTE: the real motivation for this change is that people want to
increase BINPRM_BUF_SIZE, we need to change load_misc_binary() too but
this looks more complicated because afaics it is very buggy.
