 1) Fix RX sequence number handling in mwifiex, from Stone Piao.

 2) Netfilter ipset mis-compares device names, fix from Florian
    Westphal.

 3) Fix route leak in ipv6 IPVS, from Eric Dumazet.

 4) NFS fixes.  Several buffer overflows in NCI layer from Dan
    Rosenberg, and release sock OOPS'er fix from Eric Dumazet.

 5) Fix WEP handling ath9k, we started using a bit the chip provides to
    indicate undecrypted packets but that bit turns out to be unreliable
    in certain configurations.  Fix from Felix Fietkau.

 6) Fix Kconfig dependency bug in wlcore, from Randy Dunlap.

 7) New USB IDs for rtlwifi driver from Larry Finger.

 8) Fix crashes in qmi_wwan usbnet driver when disconnecting, from Bjørn
    Mork.

 9) Gianfar driver programs coalescing settings properly in single queue
    mode, but does not do so in multi-queue mode.  Fix from Claudiu
    Manoil.

10) Missing module.h include in davinci_cpdma.c, from Daniel Mack.

11) Need dummy handler for IPSET_CMD_NONE otherwise we crash in ipset if
    we get this via nfnetlink, fix from Tomasz Bursztyka.

12) Missing RCU unlock in nfnetlink error path, also from Tomasz.

13) Fix divide by zero in igbvf when the user tries to set an RX
    coalescing value of 0 usecs, from Mitch A Williams.

14) We can process SCTP sacks for the wrong transport, oops.  Fix from
    Neil Horman.

15) Remove hw IP payload checksumming from e1000e driver.  This has zery
    value in our stack, and turning it on creates a very unintuitive
    restriction for users when using jumbo MTUs.

    Specifically, when IP payload checksums are on you cannot use both
    receive hashing offload and jumbo MTU.  Fix from Bruce Allan.

9fe79d7600 eCryptfs: Properly check for O_RDONLY flag before doing privileged open
If the first attempt at opening the lower file read/write fails,
eCryptfs will retry using a privileged kthread. However, the privileged
retry should not happen if the lower file's inode is read-only because a
read/write open will still be unsuccessful.

The check for determining if the open should be retried was intended to
be based on the access mode of the lower file's open flags being
O_RDONLY, but the check was incorrectly performed. This would cause the
open to be retried by the privileged kthread, resulting in a second
failed open of the lower file. This patch corrects the check to
determine if the open request should be handled by the privileged
kthread.

dab058fd5f floppy: cancel any pending fd_timeouts before adding a new one
In commit 070ad7e793 ("floppy: convert to delayed work and
single-thread wq") the 'fd_timeout' timer was converted to a delayed
work.  However, the "del_timer(&fd_timeout)" was lost in the process,
and any previous pending timeouts would stay active when we then
re-queued the timeout.

This resulted in the floppy probe sequence having a (stale) 20s timeout
rather than the intended 3s timeout, and thus made booting with the
floppy driver (but no actual floppy controller) take much longer than it
should.

Of course, there's little reason for most people to compile the floppy
driver into the kernel at all, which is why most people never noticed.

Canceling the delayed work where we used to do the del_timer() fixes the
issue, and makes the floppy probing use the proper new timeout instead.
The three second timeout is still very wasteful, but better than the 20s
one.

d92d95b6bf regulator: Fix recursive mutex lockdep warning
A recursive lockdep warning occurs if you call
regulator_set_optimum_mode() on a regulator with a supply because
there is no nesting annotation for the rdev->mutex. To avoid this
warning, get the supply's load before locking the regulator's
mutex to avoid grabbing the same class of lock twice.

863b13271f clk: fix parent validation in __clk_set_parent()
The below commit introduced a bug in __clk_set_parent()
which could cause it to *skip* the parent validation
which makes sure the parent passed to the api is a valid
one.

    commit 7975059db5
    Author: Rajendra Nayak <rnayak@ti.com>
    Date:   Wed Jun 6 14:41:31 2012 +0530

        clk: Allow late cache allocation for clk->parents

This was identified by the following compiler warning..

    drivers/clk/clk.c: In function '__clk_set_parent':
    drivers/clk/clk.c:1083:5: warning: 'i' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wuninitialized]

.. as reported by Marc Kleine-Budde.

There were various options discussed on how to fix this, one
being initing 'i' to clk->num_parents, but the below approach
was found to be more appropriate as it also makes the 'parent
validation' code simpler to read.

ec01d738a1 cifs: when server doesn't set CAP_LARGE_READ_X, cap default rsize at MaxBufferSize
When the server doesn't advertise CAP_LARGE_READ_X, then MS-CIFS states
that you must cap the size of the read at the client's MaxBufferSize.
Unfortunately, testing with many older servers shows that they often
can't service a read larger than their own MaxBufferSize.

Since we can't assume what the server will do in this situation, we must
be conservative here for the default. When the server can't do large
reads, then assume that it can't satisfy any read larger than its
MaxBufferSize either.

Luckily almost all modern servers can do large reads, so this won't
affect them. This is really just for older win9x and OS/2 era servers.
Also, note that this patch just governs the default rsize. The admin can
always override this if he so chooses.

0d200aefd4 dm thin: commit metadata before creating metadata snapshot
Userland sometimes sees a corrupt metadata block if metadata is changing
rapidly when a metadata snapshot is reserved for userland,  To make the
problem go away, commit before we take the metadata snapshot (which is a
sensible thing to do anyway).

The checksums mean userland spots this corruption immediately so there's
no risk of acting on incorrect data.  No corruption exists from the
kernel's point of view, and thin_check passes after pool shutdown.

I believe this is to do with shared blocks at the first level of the
{device, mapping} btree.  Prior to the metadata-snap support no sharing
at this level was possible, so this patch is only required after commit
cc8394d86f ("dm thin: provide userspace
access to pool metadata").

9f846a16d2 drm/i915: kick any firmware framebuffers before claiming the gtt
Especially vesafb likes to map everything as uc- (yikes), and if that
mapping hangs around still while we try to map the gtt as wc the
kernel will downgrade our request to uc-, resulting in abyssal
performance.

Unfortunately we can't do this as early as readon does (i.e. as the
first thing we do when initializing the hw) because our fb/mmio space
region moves around on a per-gen basis. So I've had to move it below
the gtt initialization, but that seems to work, too. The important
thing is that we do this before we set up the gtt wc mapping.

Now an altogether different question is why people compile their
kernels with vesafb enabled, but I guess making things just work isn't
bad per se ...

v2:
- s/radeondrmfb/inteldrmfb/
- fix up error handling

v3: Kill #ifdef X86, this is Intel after all. Noticed by Ben Widawsky.

v4: Jani Nikula complained about the pointless bool primary
initialization.

v5: Don't oops if we can't allocate, noticed by Chris Wilson.

v6: Resolve conflicts with agp rework and fixup whitespace.

This is commit e188719a28 in drm-next.

Backport to 3.5 -fixes queue requested by Dave Airlie - due to grub
using vesa on fedora their initrd seems to load vesafb before loading
the real kms driver. So tons more people actually experience a
dead-slow gpu. Hence also the Cc: stable.

7b668ebe2f drm: edid: Don't add inferred modes with higher resolution
When a monitor EDID doesn't give the preferred bit, driver assumes
that the mode with the higest resolution and rate is the preferred
mode.  Meanwhile the recent changes for allowing more modes in the
GFT/CVT ranges give actually more modes, and some modes may be over
the native size.  Thus such a mode would be picked up as the preferred
mode although it's no native resolution.

For avoiding such a problem, this patch limits the addition of
inferred modes by checking not to be greater than other modes.
Also, it checks the duplicated mode entry at the same time.

b357f04a67 md: fix up plugging (again).
The value returned by "mddev_check_plug" is only valid until the
next 'schedule' as that will unplug things.  This could happen at any
call to mempool_alloc.
So just calling mddev_check_plug at the start doesn't really make
sense.

So call it just before, or just after, queuing things for the thread.
As the action that happens at unplug is to wake the thread, this makes
lots of sense.
If we cannot add a plug (which requires a small GFP_ATOMIC alloc) we
wake thread immediately.

RAID5 is a bit different.  Requests are queued for the thread and the
thread is woken by release_stripe.  So we don't need to wake the
thread on failure.
However the thread doesn't perform certain actions when there is any
active plug, so it is important to install a plug before waking the
thread.  So for RAID5 we install the plug *before* queuing the request
and waking the thread.

Without this patch it is possible for raid1 or raid10 to queue a
request without then waking the thread, resulting in the array locking
up.

Also change raid10 to only flush_pending_write when there are not
active plugs, just like raid1.

This patch is suitable for 3.0 or later.  I plan to submit it to
-stable, but I'll like to let it spend a few weeks in mainline
first to be sure it is completely safe.

f456309106 md: support re-add of recovering devices.
We currently only allow a device to be re-added if it appear to be
in-sync.  This is overly restrictive as it may be desirable to re-add
a device that is in the middle of recovery.

So remove the test for "InSync" - the test on rdev->raid_disk is
sufficient to ensure that the re-add will succeed.

32644afd89 md/raid1: fix bug in read_balance introduced by hot-replace
When we added hot_replace we doubled the number of devices
that could be in a RAID1 array.  So we doubled how far read_balance
would search.  Unfortunately we didn't double the point at which
it looped back to the beginning - so it effectively loops over
all non-replacement disks twice.
This doesn't cause bad behaviour, but it pointless and means we
never read from replacement devices.

b4c3a8729a powerpc/iommu: Implement IOMMU pools to improve multiqueue adapter performance
At the moment all queues in a multiqueue adapter will serialise
against the IOMMU table lock. This is proving to be a big issue,
especially with 10Gbit ethernet.

This patch creates 4 pools and tries to spread the load across
them. If the table is under 1GB in size we revert back to the
original behaviour of 1 pool and 1 largealloc pool.

We create a hash to map CPUs to pools. Since we prefer interrupts to
be affinitised to primary CPUs, without some form of hashing we are
very likely to end up using the same pool. As an example, POWER7
has 4 way SMT and with 4 pools all primary threads will map to the
same pool.

The largealloc pool is reduced from 1/2 to 1/4 of the space to
partially offset the overhead of breaking the table up into pools.

Some performance numbers were obtained with a Chelsio T3 adapter on
two POWER7 boxes, running a 100 session TCP round robin test.

Performance improved 69% with this patch applied.

Implement a POWER7 optimised memcpy using VMX and enhanced prefetch

This is a copy of the POWER7 optimised copy_to_user/copy_from_user
loop. Detailed implementation and performance details can be found in
commit a66086b819 (powerpc: POWER7 optimised
copy_to_user/copy_from_user using VMX).

I noticed memcpy issues when profiling a RAID6 workload:

	.memcpy
	.async_memcpy
	.async_copy_data
	.__raid_run_ops
	.handle_stripe
	.raid5d
	.md_thread

I created a simplified testcase by building a RAID6 array with 4 1GB
ramdisks (booting with brd.rd_size=1048576):

# mdadm -CR -e 1.2 /dev/md0 --level=6 -n4 /dev/ram[0-3]

I then timed how long it took to write to the entire array:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/md0 bs=1M

bce4b4bd91 powerpc: Use enhanced touch instructions in POWER7 copy_to_user/copy_from_user
Version 2.06 of the POWER ISA introduced enhanced touch instructions,
allowing us to specify a number of attributes including the length of
a stream.

This patch adds a software stream for both loads and stores in the
POWER7 copy_tofrom_user loop. Since the setup is quite complicated
and we have to use an eieio to ensure correct ordering of the "GO"
command we only do this for copies above 4kB.

To quantify any performance improvements we need a working set
bigger than the caches so we operate on a 1GB file:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1024

And we compare how fast we can read the file:

# dd if=/tmp/foo of=/dev/null bs=1M

before: 7.7 GB/s
after:  9.6 GB/s

A 25% improvement.

The worst case for this patch will be a completely L1 cache contained
copy of just over 4kB. We can test this with the copy_to_user
testcase we used to tune copy_tofrom_user originally:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c

# time ./copy_to_user2 -l 4224 -i 10000000

before: 6.807 s
after:  6.946 s

A 2% slowdown, which seems reasonable considering our data is unlikely
to be completely L1 contained.

8127e723da powerpc/pci: cleanup on duplicate assignment
While creating the PCI root bus through function pci_create_root_bus()
of PCI core, it should have assigned the secondary bus number for the
newly created PCI root bus. Thus we needn't do the explicit assignment
for the secondary bus number again in pcibios_scan_phb().

5b958a7eef powerpc/numa: Fix OF node refcounting bug
The form affinity for NUMA is set to 1 if the firmware supports
OPAL. Otherwise, we have to retrieve that from OF node "/chosen".
For the latter case, OF node "/chosen" reference count was never
decreased.

fde69282b7 powerpc: POWER7 optimised copy_page using VMX and enhanced prefetch
Implement a POWER7 optimised copy_page using VMX and enhanced
prefetch instructions. We use enhanced prefetch hints to prefetch
both the load and store side. We copy a cacheline at a time and
fall back to regular loads and stores if we are unable to use VMX
(eg we are in an interrupt).

The following microbenchmark was used to assess the impact of
the patch:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/page_fault_file.c

We test MAP_PRIVATE page faults across a 1GB file, 100 times:

# time ./page_fault_file -p -l 1G -i 100

Before: 22.25s
After:  18.89s

17% faster

Subsequent patches will add more VMX library functions and it makes
sense to keep all the c-code helper functions in the one file.

a9514dc69d powerpc: Use enhanced touch instructions in POWER7 copy_to_user/copy_from_user
Version 2.06 of the POWER ISA introduced enhanced touch instructions,
allowing us to specify a number of attributes including the length of
a stream.

This patch adds a software stream for both loads and stores in the
POWER7 copy_tofrom_user loop. Since the setup is quite complicated
and we have to use an eieio to ensure correct ordering of the "GO"
command we only do this for copies above 4kB.

To quantify any performance improvements we need a working set
bigger than the caches so we operate on a 1GB file:

# dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/foo bs=1M count=1024

And we compare how fast we can read the file:

# dd if=/tmp/foo of=/dev/null bs=1M

before: 7.7 GB/s
after:  9.6 GB/s

A 25% improvement.

The worst case for this patch will be a completely L1 cache contained
copy of just over 4kB. We can test this with the copy_to_user
testcase we used to tune copy_tofrom_user originally:

http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c

# time ./copy_to_user2 -l 4224 -i 10000000

before: 6.807 s
after:  6.946 s
