Takashi Iwai fcad94a4c7 ALSA: hda - Fix the cmd cache keys for amp verbs
Fix the key value generation for get/set amp verbs.  The upper bits of
the parameter have to be combined with the verb value to be unique for
each direction/index of amp access.

This fixes the resume problem on some hardwares like Macbook after
the channel mode is changed.

Linus Torvalds ea34f43a07 acpi-cpufreq: fix 'smp_call_function_many()' confusion
It turns out that 'smp_call_function_many()' doesn't work at all like
'smp_call_function_single()', and my change to Andrew's patch to use it
rather than a loop over all CPU's acpi-cpufreq doesn't work.

My bad.

'smp_call_function_many()' has two "features" (aka "documented bugs"):

 (a) it needs to be called with preemption disabled, because it uses
     smp_processor_id() without guarding the CPU lookup with 'get_cpu()'
     and 'put_cpu()' like the 'single' variant does.

 (b) even if the current CPU is part of the CPU mask, it won't do the
     call on that CPU.

Still, we're better off trying to use 'smp_call_function_many()' than
looping over CPU's, since it at least in theory allows us to use a
broadcast IPI and do it all in parallel.  So let's just work around the
silly semantic bugs in that function.

Jens Axboe a36e71f996 cfq-iosched: add close cooperator code
If we have processes that are working in close proximity to each
other on disk, we don't want to idle wait. Instead allow the close
process to issue a request, getting better aggregate bandwidth.
The anticipatory scheduler has similar checks, noop and deadline do
not need it since they don't care about process <-> io mappings.

The code for CFQ is a little more involved though, since we split
request queues into per-process contexts.

This fixes a performance problem with eg dump(8), since it uses
several processes in some silly attempt to speed IO up. Even if
dump(8) isn't really a valid case (it should be fixed by using
CLONE_IO), there are other cases where we see close processes
and where idling ends up hurting performance.

Credit goes to Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> for writing the
initial implementation.

Jens Axboe 2d87072296 cfq-iosched: tweak kick logic a bit more
We only kick the dispatch for an idling queue, if we think it's a
(somewhat) fully merged request. Also allow a kick if we have other
busy queues in the system, since we don't want to risk waiting for
a potential merge in that case. It's better to get some work done and
proceed.

Nick Piggin c2572f2b4f brd: fix cacheflushing
brd is missing a flush_dcache_page. On 2nd thoughts, perhaps it is the
pagecache's responsibility to flush user virtual aliases (the driver of
course should flush kernel virtual mappings)... but anyway, there
already exists cache flushing for one direction of transfer, so we
should add the other.

Miklos Szeredi 61e0d47c33 splice: add helpers for locking pipe inode
There are lots of sequences like this, especially in splice code:

	if (pipe->inode)
		mutex_lock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex);
	/* do something */
	if (pipe->inode)
		mutex_unlock(&pipe->inode->i_mutex);

so introduce helpers which do the conditional locking and unlocking.
Also replace the inode_double_lock() call with a pipe_double_lock()
helper to avoid spreading the use of this functionality beyond the
pipe code.

This patch is just a cleanup, and should cause no behavioral changes.

Miklos Szeredi b3c2d2ddd6 splice: split up __splice_from_pipe()
Split up __splice_from_pipe() into four helper functions:

  splice_from_pipe_begin()
  splice_from_pipe_next()
  splice_from_pipe_feed()
  splice_from_pipe_end()

splice_from_pipe_next() will wait (if necessary) for more buffers to
be added to the pipe.  splice_from_pipe_feed() will feed the buffers
to the supplied actor and return when there's no more data available
(or if all of the requested data has been copied).

This is necessary so that implementations can do locking around the
non-waiting splice_from_pipe_feed().

This patch should not cause any change in behavior.

Remove the weird pointer to file_operations mess and replace it with
straight-forward defining of the lockinginstance names to the _nolock
variants.

Steven Whitehouse a228df6339 GFS2: Move umount flush rwsem
The rwsem, used only on umount, is in the wrong place in glock.c.
This patch moves it up a bit so that it does not get called under
a spinlock.

Steven Whitehouse 5cf32524de GFS2: Fix symlink creation race
In certain cases symlinks can appear to have zero size if a lookup
on the inode occurs within a certain (very short) time after the
symlink has been created. The symlink is correctly created on disk
but appears to have zero size when stat()ed. This patch closes the
race and prevents incorrect sizes appearing.

Aaro Koskinen 7fccfc00c0 [ARM] 5450/1: Flush only the needed range when unmapping a VMA
When unmapping N pages (e.g. shared memory) the amount of TLB flushes
done can be (N*PAGE_SIZE/ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE)*N although it should be N at
maximum. With PREEMPT kernel ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE is 8 pages, so there is a
noticeable performance penalty when unmapping a large VMA and the system
is spending its time in flush_tlb_range().

The problem is that tlb_end_vma() is always flushing the full VMA
range. The subrange that needs to be flushed can be calculated by
tlb_remove_tlb_entry(). This approach was suggested by Hugh Dickins,
and is also used by other arches.

The speed increase is roughly 3x for 8M mappings and for larger mappings
even more.

Mark Brown 41609ff430 [ARM] 5449/1: S3C: Use disable_irq_nosync() to fix boot lockups
With 2.6.30-rc1 on SMDK6410 I experience a soft lockup on bootup when
the Samsung serial driver attempts to disable the transmit interrupt
from within the transmit interrupt handler: it calls disable_irq()
which locks up due to attempting to synchronise with the running handler.
Fix this by using disable_irq_nosync().

Also make the same change in the recieve path.
