docbook: split kernel-api for device-drivers
The kernel-api docbook was much larger than any of the others,
so processing it took longer and needed some docbook extras in
some cases, so split it into kernel-api (infrastructure etc.)
and device drivers/device subsystems. This allows these docbooks
to be generated in parallel. (This reduced the docbook processing
time on my 4-proc system with make -j4 from about 5min:16sec to
about 2min:01sec.)

Message-based devices

16x50 UART Driver

PM/hibernate: fix "swap breaks after hibernation failures"

The image writing code dropped a reference to the current swap device.
This doesn't show up if the hibernation succeeds - because it doesn't
affect the image which gets resumed. But it means multiple _failed_
hibernations end up freeing the swap device while it is still use!
swsusp_write() finds the block device for the swap file using swap_type_of().
It then uses blkdev_get() / blkdev_put() to open and close the block device.
Unfortunately, blkdev_get() assumes ownership of the inode of the block_device
passed to it. So blkdev_put() calls iput() on the inode. This is by design
and other callers expect this behaviour. The fix is for swap_type_of() to take
a reference on the inode using bdget().

[CIFS] improve posix semantics of file create
Samba server added support for a new posix open/create/mkdir operation

The following patch helps improve the performance of the cifs create
path (to Samba and servers which support the cifs posix protocol
extensions). Using Connectathon basic test1, with 2000 files, the
performance improved about 15%, and also helped reduce network traffic
(17% fewer SMBs sent over the wire) due to saving a network round trip
for the SetPathInfo on every file create.
It should also help the semantics (and probably the performance) of
write (e.g. when posix byte range locks are on the file) on file
handles opened with posix create, and adds support for a few flags
which would have to be ignored otherwise.
Certain NAS appliances do not set the operating system or network operating system
fields in the session setup response on the wire. cifs was oopsing on the unexpected
zero length response fields (when trying to null terminate a zero length field).
This fixes the oops.

8250: fix boot hang with serial console when using with Serial Over Lan port
Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan.
This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by
kernel as a normal 8250 port. However, this emulation is not perfect, as
also noticed on changeset 7500b1f602aad75901774a67a687ee985d85893f.
Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is
capable of work using IRQ's.
This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the
chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register.
Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled. However, as TX IRQ keeps
working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the
IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the
serial console.
This is the 6 version of this patch. Previous versions were trying to
introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up,
UART_IIR), but not taking forever. However, the needed delay couldn't be
safely determined.
At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but
still hangs sometimes. Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still
doesn't solve. A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time.
However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't
seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk.
So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just
disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

x86: use the right protections for split-up pagetables
Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel
ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD
itself having been marked read-only as well in
split_large_page().
The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the
reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard
(and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE.
The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and
incorrect concept at the page table level - because the
pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot
'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any
mixture of protections.
With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections
get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching
or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined
protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive
(or permissive) protections will control it.
Also update the comment.
This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible
problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to
trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really
large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing.
[ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing
the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not

drm/i915: Don't add panel_fixed_mode to the probed modes list at LVDS init.
In the case where no EDID data is read from the device, adding the
panel_fixed_mode pointer to the probed modes list causes data corruption.
If the panel_fixed_mode pointer is added to the probed modes list at
init time, a copy of the mode is added again at drm_get_modes() request
time. Then, the panel_fixed_mode pointer is freed because it is seen as
a duplicate mode. Unfortunately, this pointer is still stored and used
in mode_fixup().
Because the panel_fixed_mode data is copied and returned at
drm_get_modes() time, it is unnecessary to add this information at init
time.

drm/i915: Fix potential AB-BA deadlock in i915_gem_execbuffer()
Lockdep warns that i915_gem_execbuffer() can trigger a page fault (which
takes mmap_sem) while holding dev->struct_mutex, while drm_vm_open()
(which is called with mmap_sem already held) takes dev->struct_mutex.
So this is a potential AB-BA deadlock.
The way that i915_gem_execbuffer() triggers a page fault is by doing
copy_to_user() when returning new buffer offsets back to userspace;
however there is no reason to hold the struct_mutex when doing this
copy, since what is being copied is the contents of an array private to
i915_gem_execbuffer() anyway. So we can fix the potential deadlock (and
get rid of the lockdep warning) by simply moving the copy_to_user()
outside of where struct_mutex is held.
This fixes <http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12491>.

[IA64] xen_domu build fix
arch/ia64/xen/xen_pv_ops.c:156: error: xen_init_ops causes a section type conflict

Commit e7b14036 removes the targetted disabled CPU from the
cpu_online_map after calls to migrate_platform_irqs and fixup_irqs.
Paul McKenney states that the reasoning behind the patch was to
prevent irq handlers from running on CPUs marked offline because:
RCU happily ignores CPUs that don't have their bits set in
cpu_online_map, so if there are RCU read-side critical sections
in the irq handlers being run, RCU will ignore them. If the
other CPUs were running, they might sequence through the RCU
state machine, which could result in data structures being
yanked out from under those irq handlers, which in turn could
result in oopses or worse.
Unfortunately, both ia64 functions above look at cpu_online_map to find
a new CPU to migrate interrupts onto. This means we can potentially
migrate an interrupt off ourself back to... ourself. Uh oh.
This causes an oops when we finally try to process pending interrupts on
the CPU we want to disable. The oops results from calling __do_IRQ with
a NULL pt_regs:
I don't like this revert because it is fragile. ia64 is getting lucky
because we seem to only ever process timer interrupts in this path, but
if we ever race with an IPI here, we definitely use RCU and have the
potential of hitting an oops that Paul describes above.
Patching ia64's timer_interrupt() to check for NULL pt_regs is
insufficient though, as we still hit the above oops.
As a short term solution, I do think that this revert is the right
answer. The revert hold up under repeated testing (24+ hour test runs)
with this setup:
- 8-way rx6600
- randomly toggling CPU online/offline state every 2 seconds
- running CPU exercisers, memory hog, disk exercisers, and
network stressors
- average system load around ~160
In the long term, we really need to figure out why we set pt_regs = NULL
in ia64_process_pending_intr(). If it turns out that it is unnecessary
to do so, then we could safely re-introduce e7b14036 (along with some
other logic to be smarter about migrating interrupts).
One final note: x86 also removes the disabled CPU from cpu_online_map
and then re-enables interrupts for 1ms, presumably to handle any pending
interrupts:
arch/x86/kernel/irq_32.c (and irq_64.c):
cpu_disable_common:
[remove cpu from cpu_online_map]
fixup_irqs():
for_each_irq:
[break CPU affinities]

[IA64] bte_copy of BTE_MAX_XFER trips BUG_ON.
BTE_MAX_XFER is wrong. It is one greater than the number of cache
lines the BTE is actually able to transfer. If you request a transfer
of exactly BTE_MAX_XFER size, you trip a very cryptic BUG_ON() which
should certainly be made more clear.
This patch fixes that constant and also cleans up the BUG_ON()s in
arch/ia64/sn/kernel/bte.c to test one condition per line.
