This is a preparation step to implement lockless allocation path when
there is no free objects in kmem_cache.
What we'd like to do here is to refill cpu cache without holding a node
lock. To accomplish this purpose, refill should be done after new slab
allocation but before attaching the slab to the management list. So,
this patch separates cache_grow() to two parts, allocation and attaching
to the list in order to add some code inbetween them in the following
patch.

Currently, cache_grow() assumes that allocated page's nodeid would be
same with parameter nodeid which is used for allocation request. If we
discard this assumption, we can handle fallback_alloc() case gracefully.
So, this patch makes cache_grow() handle the page allocated on arbitrary
node and clean-up relevant code.

Slab color isn't needed to be changed strictly. Because locking for
changing slab color could cause more lock contention so this patch
implements racy access/modify the slab color. This is a preparation
step to implement lockless allocation path when there is no free objects
in the kmem_cache.
Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation
benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago. I make the output simpler.
The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is
better.

Currently, determination to free a slab is done whenever each freed
object is put into the slab. This has a following problem.
Assume free_limit = 10 and nr_free = 9.
Free happens as following sequence and nr_free changes as following.
free(become a free slab) free(not become a free slab) nr_free: 9 -> 10
(at first free) -> 11 (at second free)
If we try to check if we can free current slab or not on each object
free, we can't free any slab in this situation because current slab
isn't a free slab when nr_free exceed free_limit (at second free) even
if there is a free slab.
However, if we check it lastly, we can free 1 free slab.
This problem would cause to keep too much memory in the slab subsystem.
This patch try to fix it by checking number of free object after all
free work is done. If there is free slab at that time, we can free slab
as much as possible so we keep free slab as minimal.

Initial attemp to remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC is once reverted by 'commit
edcad2509550 ("Revert "slab: remove BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC"")' because it
causes a problem on m68k which has many node but !CONFIG_NUMA. In this
case, although alien cache isn't used at all but to cope with some
initialization path, garbage value is used and that is BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC.
Now, this patch set use_alien_caches to 0 when !CONFIG_NUMA, there is no
initialization path problem so we don't need BAD_ALIEN_MAGIC at all. So
remove it.

While processing concurrent allocation, SLAB could be contended a lot
because it did a lots of work with holding a lock. This patchset try to
reduce the number of critical section to reduce lock contention. Major
changes are lockless decision to allocate more slab and lockless cpu
cache refill from the newly allocated slab.
Below is the result of concurrent allocation/free in slab allocation
benchmark made by Christoph a long time ago. I make the output simpler.
The number shows cycle count during alloc/free respectively so less is

It shows that performance improves greatly (roughly more than 50%) for
the object class whose size is more than 128 bytes.
This patch (of 11):
If we don't hold neither the slab_mutex nor the node lock, node's shared
array cache could be freed and re-populated. If __kmem_cache_shrink()
is called at the same time, it will call drain_array() with n->shared
without holding node lock so problem can happen. This patch fix the
situation by holding the node lock before trying to drain the shared
array.
In addition, add a debug check to confirm that n->shared access race
doesn't exist.

A recent cleanup removed some exported functions that were not used
anywhere, which in turn exposed the fact that some other functions in
the same file are only used in some configurations.
We now get a warning about them when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabled:
kernel/padata.c:670:12: error: '__padata_remove_cpu' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
static int __padata_remove_cpu(struct padata_instance *pinst, int cpu)
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kernel/padata.c:650:12: error: '__padata_add_cpu' defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]
static int __padata_add_cpu(struct padata_instance *pinst, int cpu)
This rearranges the code so the __padata_remove_cpu/__padata_add_cpu
functions are within the #ifdef that protects the code that calls them.

By accident I stumbled across code that has never been used. This
driver has EXPORT_SYMBOL functions, and the only user of the code is
pcrypt.c, but this only uses a subset of the exported symbols.
According to 'git log -G', the functions, padata_set_cpumasks,
padata_add_cpu, and padata_remove_cpu have never been used since they
were first introduced. This patch removes the unused code.

callbacks
When activating a static object we need make sure that the object is
tracked in the object tracker. If it is a non-static object then the
activation is illegal.
In previous implementation, each subsystem need take care of this in
their fixup callbacks. Actually we can put it into debugobjects core.
Thus we can save duplicated code, and have *pure* fixup callbacks.
To achieve this, a new callback "is_static_object" is introduced to let
the type specific code decide whether a object is static or not. If
yes, we take it into object tracker, otherwise give warning and invoke
fixup callback.
This change has paassed debugobjects selftest, and I also do some test
with all debugobjects supports enabled.
At last, I have a concern about the fixups that can it change the object
which is in incorrect state on fixup? Because the 'addr' may not point
to any valid object if a non-static object is not tracked. Then Change
such object can overwrite someone's memory and cause unexpected
behaviour. For example, the timer_fixup_activate bind timer to function
stub_timer.

I am going to introduce debugobjects infrastructure to USB subsystem.
But before this, I found the code of debugobjects could be improved.
This patchset will make fixup functions return bool type instead of int.
Because fixup only need report success or no. boolean is the 'real'
type.
This patch (of 7):
The object debugging infrastructure core provides some fixup callbacks
for the subsystem who use it. These callbacks are called from the debug
code whenever a problem in debug_object_init is detected. And
debugobjects core suppose them returns 1 when the fixup was successful,
otherwise 0. So the return type is boolean.
A bad thing is that debug_object_fixup use the return value for
arithmetic operation. It confused me that what is the reall return
type.
Reading over the whole code, I found some place do use the return value
incorrectly(see next patch). So why use bool type instead?

struct timespec is not y2038 safe. Even though timespec might be
sufficient to represent timeouts, use struct timespec64 here as the plan
is to get rid of all timespec reference in the kernel.
The patch transitions the common functions: poll_select_set_timeout()
and select_estimate_accuracy() to use timespec64. And, all the syscalls
that use these functions are transitioned in the same patch.
The restart block parameters for poll uses monotonic time. Use
timespec64 here as well to assign timeout value. This parameter in the
restart block need not change because this only holds the monotonic
timestamp at which timeout should occur. And, unsigned long data type
should be big enough for this timestamp.
The system call interfaces will be handled in a separate series.

timespec64_add_safe() has been defined in time64.h for 64 bit systems.
But, 32 bit systems only have an extern function prototype defined.
Provide a definition for the above function.
The function will be necessary as part of y2038 changes. struct
timespec is not y2038 safe. All references to timespec will be replaced
by struct timespec64. The function is meant to be a replacement for
timespec_add_safe().
The implementation is similar to timespec_add_safe().

Inotify instance is destroyed when all references to it are dropped.
That not only means that the corresponding file descriptor needs to be
closed but also that all corresponding instance marks are freed (as each
mark holds a reference to the inotify instance). However marks are
freed only after SRCU period ends which can take some time and thus if
user rapidly creates and frees inotify instances, number of existing
inotify instances can exceed max_user_instances limit although from user
point of view there is always at most one existing instance. Thus
inotify_init() returns EMFILE error which is hard to justify from user
point of view. This problem is exposed by LTP inotify06 testcase on
some machines.
We fix the problem by making sure all group marks are properly freed
while destroying inotify instance. We wait for SRCU period to end in
that path anyway since we have to make sure there is no event being
added to the instance while we are tearing down the instance. So it
takes only some plumbing to allow for marks to be destroyed in that path
as well and not from a dedicated work item.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
"This includes two new updates for the ftrace infrastructure.
- With the changing of the code for filtering events by pid, from a
list of pids to a bitmask, we can now easily implement following
forks. With a new tracing option "event-fork" which, when set,
will have tasks with pids in set_event_pid, when they fork, to have
their child pids added to set_event_pid and the child will be
traced as well.
Note, if "event-fork" is set and a task with its pid in
set_event_pid exits, its pid will be removed from set_event_pid
- The addition of Tom Zanussi's hist triggers. This includes a very
thorough documentatino on how to use the hist triggers with events.
This introduces a quick and easy way to get histogram data from
events and their fields.
Some other cleanups and updates were added as well. Like Masami
Hiramatsu added test cases for the event trigger and hist triggers.
Also I added a speed up of filtering by using a temp buffer when
filters are set"

"We continue ramping up platform support for 64-bit ARM machines, with
111 individual non-merge changesets touching 21 platforms.
The LG1312 platform is completely new and is the first ARM platform by
LG that we support in the mainline kernel. Two other SoCs got added
that are updated versions of existing SoC families, so the port mainly
consists of new dts files:
- The Hisilicon Hip06/D03 is the latest server platform from
Huawei/Hisilicon, and follows the Hip05/D02 platform.
- Rockchip RK3399 follows the 32-bit RK3288 that is popular in
low-end Chromebooks and the 64-bit RK3368 that is mainly found in
chinese Android TV boxes.
The 96Boards HiKey based on the Hisilicon Hi6220 (Kirin 620) gets a
long-awaited overhaul with a lot of devices enabled in the DT, so it
should be much more usable with a mainline kernel now. See also

Pull ARM SoC platform updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"We get support for three new 32-bit SoC platforms this time.
The amount of changes in arch/arm for any of them is miniscule, as all
the interesting code is in device driver subsystems (irqchip, clk,
pinctrl, ...) these days. I'm listing them here, as the addition of
the Kconfig statement is the main relevant milestone for a new
platform. In each case, some drivers are are shared with existing
platforms, while other drivers are added for v4.7 as well, or come in
a later release.
- The Aspeed platform is probably the most interesting one, this is
what most whitebox servers use as their baseboard management
controller. We get support for the very common ast2400 and ast2500
SoCs. The OpenBMC project focuses on this chip, and the LWN
article about their ELC 2016 presentation at
https://lwn.net/Articles/683320/
triggered the submission, but the code comes from IBM's OpenPOWER
team rather than the team at Facebook. There are still a lot more
drivers that need to get added over time, and I hope both teams can
work together on that.
- OXNAS is an old platform for Network Attached Storage devices from
Oxford Semiconductor. There are models with ARM10 (!) and
ARM11MPCore cores, but for now, we only support the original ARM9
based versions. The product lineup was subsequently part of PLX,
Avago and now the new Broadcom Ltd.
https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/hardware/soc/soc.oxnas
has some more information.
- V2M-MPS2 is a prototyping platform from ARM for their Cortex-M
cores and is related to the existing Realview / Versatile Express
lineup, but without MMU.
We now support various NOMMU platforms, so adding a new one is
fairly straightforward.
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.100112_0100_03_en/
has detailed information about the platform.
Other noteworthy updates:
- Work on LPC32xx has resumed, and Vladimir Zapolskiy and Sylvain
Lemieux are now maintaining the platform.
This is an older ARM9 based platform from NXP (not Freescale), but
it remains in use in embedded markets.
- Kevin Hilman is now co-maintaining the Amlogic Meson platform for
both 32-bit and 64-bit ARM, and started contributing some patches.
- As is often the case, work on the OMAP platforms makes up the bulk
of the actual SoC code changes in arch/arm, but there isn't a lot
of that either"

Pull ARM SoC cleanups and fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
"Traditionally we've had two separate branches for cleanups and
non-critical bug fixes, but both of these got smaller with each
release and the differences are rather unclear now, so it seems more
appropriate to have a combined branch.
The most notable change is for OMAP, which gets a small rework to
simplify handling of the AUXDATA mechanism used on machines that are
not completely DT based yet, along with other work that is used as
preparation for dropping the legacy board files"

My laptop that uses the intel 7680 iwlwifi module would no longer
connects to the network. It would fail with a "Microcode SW error
detected." and spew out register state over and over again without ever
connecting to the network.
The cause is mis-merge in commit 909b27f70643, where David seems to have
lost some of the changes to iwl_mvm_set_tx_cmd() from commit
5c08b0f5026f ("iwlwifi: mvm: don't override the rate with the AMSDU
len").
The reason seems to be a conflict with commit d8fe484470dd ("iwlwifi:
mvm: add support for new TX CMD API"), which touched a line adjacent to
the changes in 909b27f70643.
David missed the fact that "info->driver_data[0]" had become
"skb_info->driver_data[0]". Then he removed the skb_info because it was
unused.
This just re-updates iwl_mvm_set_tx_cmd() with the lost two lines.
