This changeset is aimed at fixing a few different but related
problems in the ACPI hotplug infrastructure.
First of all, since notify handlers may be run in parallel with
acpi_bus_scan(), acpi_bus_trim() and acpi_bus_hot_remove_device()
and some of them are installed for ACPI handles that have no struct
acpi_device objects attached (i.e. before those objects are created),
those notify handlers have to take acpi_scan_lock to prevent races
from taking place (e.g. a struct acpi_device is found to be present
for the given ACPI handle, but right after that it is removed by
acpi_bus_trim() running in parallel to the given notify handler).
Moreover, since some of them call acpi_bus_scan() and
acpi_bus_trim(), this leads to the conclusion that acpi_scan_lock
should be acquired by the callers of these two funtions rather by
these functions themselves.
For these reasons, make all notify handlers that can handle device
addition and eject events take acpi_scan_lock and remove the
acpi_scan_lock locking from acpi_bus_scan() and acpi_bus_trim().
Accordingly, update all of their users to make sure that they
are always called under acpi_scan_lock.
Furthermore, since eject operations are carried out asynchronously
with respect to the notify events that trigger them, with the help
of acpi_bus_hot_remove_device(), even if notify handlers take the
ACPI scan lock, it still is possible that, for example,
acpi_bus_trim() will run between acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() and
the notify handler that scheduled its execution and that
acpi_bus_trim() will remove the device node passed to
acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() for ejection. In that case, the struct
acpi_device object obtained by acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() will be
invalid and not-so-funny things will ensue. To protect agaist that,
make the users of acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() run get_device() on
ACPI device node objects that are about to be passed to it and make
acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() run put_device() on them and check if
their ACPI handles are not NULL (make acpi_device_unregister() clear
the device nodes' ACPI handles for that check to work).
Finally, observe that acpi_os_hotplug_execute() actually can fail,
in which case its caller ought to free memory allocated for the
context object to prevent leaks from happening. It also needs to
run put_device() on the device node that it ran get_device() on
previously in that case. Modify the code accordingly.

In order to drop reference counts of all power resources used by an
ACPI device node being removed, acpi_device_unregister() calls
acpi_power_transition(device, ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD), which effectively
transitions the device node into D3cold if it uses any power
resources. However, for some device nodes it may not be appropriate
to remove power from them entirely before putting them into D3hot
before. On the other hand, executing _PS3 for devices that don't
use power resources before removing them shouldn't really hurt.
In fact, that is done by acpi_bus_hot_remove_device(), but this is
not the right place to do it, because the bus trimming may have
caused power to be removed from the device node in question already
before.
For these reasons, make acpi_device_unregister() carry out full
power-off transition for all device nodes supporting that and remove
the direct evaluation of _PS3 from acpi_bus_hot_remove_device().

The ACPI scan lock has been introduced to prevent acpi_bus_scan()
and acpi_bus_trim() from running in parallel with each other for
overlapping ACPI namespace scopes. However, it is not sufficient
to do that, because if acpi_bus_scan() is run (for an overlapping
namespace scope) right after the acpi_bus_trim() in
acpi_bus_hot_remove_device(), the subsequent eject will remove
devices without removing the corresponding struct acpi_device
objects (and possibly companion "physical" device objects).
Therefore acpi_bus_hot_remove_device() has to acquire the scan
lock before carrying out the bus trimming and hold it through
the evaluation of _EJ0, so make that happen.

Make the ACPI container driver use struct acpi_scan_handler for
representing the object used to initialize ACPI containers and remove
the ACPI driver structure used previously and the data structures
created by it, since in fact they were not used for any purpose.
This simplifies the code and reduces the kernel's memory footprint by
avoiding the registration of a struct device_driver object with the
driver core and creation of its sysfs directory which is unnecessary.
In addition to that, make the namespace walk callback used for
installing the notify handlers for ACPI containers more
straightforward.
This change includes fixes from Toshi Kani.

When acpi_device_install_notify_handler() failed in acpi_device_probe(),

The IDs of ACPI device nodes stored in their pnp.ids member arrays
are sorted by decreasing priority (i.e. the highest-priority ID is
the first entry). This means that when matching scan handlers to
device nodes, the namespace scanning code should walk the list of
scan handlers for each device node ID instead of walking the list
of device node IDs for each handler (the latter causes the first
handler matching any of the device node IDs to be chosen, although
there may be another handler matching an ID of a higher priority
which should be preferred). Make the code follow this observation.
This change has been suggested and justified by Toshi Kani.

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"I was going to hold these off until v3.8 was out, and send them with a
stable tag, but as everyone else is pushing much bigger fixes which
Linus is accepting, let's save people from the hastle of having to
patch v3.8 back into working or use a stable kernel.
Looking at the diffstat, this really is high value for its size; this
is miniscule compared to how the -rc6 to tip diffstat currently looks.
So, four patches in this set:
- Punit Agrawal reports that the kernel no longer boots on MPCore due
to a new assumption made in the GIC code which isn't true of
earlier GIC designs. This is the biggest change in this set.
- Punit's boot log also revealed a bunch of WARN_ON() dumps caused by
the DT-ification of the GIC support without fixing up non-DT
Realview - which now sees a greater number of interrupts than it
did before.
- A fix for the DMA coherent code from Marek which uses the wrong
check for atomic allocations; this can result in spinlock lockups
or other nasty effects.
- A fix from Will, which will affect all Android based platforms if
not applied (which use the 2G:2G VM split) - this causes
particularly 'make' to misbehave unless this bug is fixed."
* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:

18) SCTP authentication keys should be cleared out and released with

19) L2TP is a bit too clever trying to maintain skb->truesize, and ends
up corrupting socket memory accounting to the point where packet
sending is halted indefinitely. Just remove the adjustments
entirely, they aren't really needed. From Eric Dumazet.

21) Fix a typo in copying the inner network header offset from one SKB
to another, from Pravin B Shelar.

Unfortunately the s390 typedef can't be renamed, since it's a user visible api,
nor can I change the include order in s390 code to avoid the conflict.

We have received multiple reports of mmap failures when running with a
2:2 vm split. These manifest as either -EINVAL with a non page-aligned
address (ending 0xaaa) or a SEGV, depending on the application. The
issue is commonly observed in children of make, which appears to use
bottom-up mmap (assumedly because it changes the stack rlimit).
Further investigation reveals that this regression was triggered by
394ef6403abc ("mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on arm architecture"), whereby
TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is no longer page-aligned for bottom-up mmap, causing
get_unmapped_area to choke on misaligned addressed.
This patch fixes the problem by defining TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE in terms of
TASK_SIZE and explicitly aligns the result to 16M, matching the other
end of the heap.

This happens because the DMA allocation code is not respecting atomic
allocations correctly.
GFP flags should not be tested for GFP_ATOMIC to determine if an
atomic allocation is being requested. GFP_ATOMIC is not a flag but
a value. The GFP bitmask flags are all prefixed with __GFP_.
The rest of the kernel tests for __GFP_WAIT not being set to indicate
an atomic allocation. We need to do the same.

Some early GIC implementations return zero for the first distributor
CPU routing register. This means we can't rely on that telling us
which CPU interface we're connected to. We know that these platforms
implement PPIs for IRQs 29-31 - but we shouldn't assume that these
will always be populated.
So, instead, scan for a non-zero CPU routing register in the first
32 IRQs and use that as our CPU mask.

====================
The Xen netback implementation contains a couple of flaws which can
allow a guest to cause a DoS in the backend domain, potentially
affecting other domains in the system.
CVE-2013-0216 is a failure to sanity check the ring producer/consumer
pointers which can allow a guest to cause netback to loop for an
extended period preventing other work from occurring.
CVE-2013-0217 is a memory leak on an error path which is guest
triggerable.
The following series contains the fixes for these issues, as previously
included in Xen Security Advisory 39:

A buggy or malicious frontend should not be able to confuse netback.
If we spot anything which is not as it should be then shutdown the
device and don't try to continue with the ring in a potentially
hostile state. Well behaved and non-hostile frontends will not be
penalised.
As well as making the existing checks for such errors fatal also add a
new check that ensures that there isn't an insane number of requests
on the ring (i.e. more than would fit in the ring). If the ring
contains garbage then previously is was possible to loop over this
insane number, getting an error each time and therefore not generating
any more pending requests and therefore not exiting the loop in
xen_netbk_tx_build_gops for an externded period.
Also turn various netdev_dbg calls which no precipitate a fatal error
into netdev_err, they are rate limited because the device is shutdown
afterwards.
This fixes at least one known DoS/softlockup of the backend domain.

This fixes up
commit e8e89622ed361c46bf90ba4828e685a8b603f7e5
Author: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch>
Date: Tue Dec 18 22:25:11 2012 +0100
drm/ttm: fix fence locking in ttm_buffer_object_transfer
which leaves behind a might_sleep in atomic context, since the
fence_lock spinlock is held over a kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL) call. The fix
is to revert the above commit and only take the lock where we need it,
around the call to ->sync_obj_ref.
v2: Fixup things noticed by Maarten Lankhorst:
- Brown paper bag locking bug.
- No need for kzalloc if we clear the entire thing on the next line.
- check for bo->sync_obj (totally unlikely race, but still someone
else could have snuck in) and clear fbo->sync_obj if it's cleared
already.

Pull sound fixes from Takashi Iwai:
"Just a couple of build regression fixes for ASoC fsl stuff. It
doesn't look too trivial, but neither intrusive, so hopefully I can
avoid your curse..."
Hey, Takashi has a good track record, I think he gets a pass..

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
"I've got a few bits pending for 3.8 final, that I better get sent out.
It's all been sitting for a while, I consider it safe.
It contains:
- Two bug fixes for mtip32xx, fixing a driver hang and a crash.
- A few-liner protocol error fix for drbd.
- A few fixes for the xen block front/back driver, fixing a potential
data corruption issue.
- A race fix for disk_clear_events(), causing spurious warnings. Out
of the Chrome OS base.
- A deadlock fix for disk_clear_events(), moving it to the a
unfreezable workqueue. Also from the Chrome OS base."
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
drbd: fix potential protocol error and resulting disconnect/reconnect
mtip32xx: fix for crash when the device surprise removed during rebuild
mtip32xx: fix for driver hang after a command timeout
block: prevent race/cleanup
block: remove deadlock in disk_clear_events
xen-blkfront: handle bvecs with partial data
llist/xen-blkfront: implement safe version of llist_for_each_entry
xen-blkback: implement safe iterator for the list of persistent grants
