The NOMMU code currently clears all anonymous mmapped memory. While this
is what we want in the default case, all memory allocation from userspace
under NOMMU has to go through this interface, including malloc() which is
allowed to return uninitialized memory. This can easily be a significant
performance penalty. So for constrained embedded systems were security is
irrelevant, allow people to avoid clearing memory unnecessarily.
This also alters the ELF-FDPIC binfmt such that it obtains uninitialised
memory for the brk and stack region.

Now that ksm pages are swappable, and the known holes plugged, remove
mention of unswappable kernel pages from KSM documentation and comments.
Remove the totalram_pages/4 initialization of max_kernel_pages. In fact,
remove max_kernel_pages altogether - we can reinstate it if removal turns
out to break someone's script; but if we later want to limit KSM's memory
usage, limiting the stable nodes would not be an effective approach.

Commit c04fc586c (mm: show node to memory section relationship with
symlinks in sysfs) created symlinks from nodes to memory sections, e.g.
/sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135
If you're examining the memory section though and are wondering what node
it might belong to, you can find it by grovelling around in sysfs, but
it's a little cumbersome.
Add a reverse symlink for each memory section that points back to the
node to which it belongs.

Register per node hstate attributes only for nodes with memory. As
suggested by David Rientjes.
With Memory Hotplug, memory can be added to a memoryless node and a node
with memory can become memoryless. Therefore, add a memory on/off-line
notifier callback to [un]register a node's attributes on transition
to/from memoryless state.
N.B., Only tested build, boot, libhugetlbfs regression.
i.e., no memory hotplug testing.

On a system with large amount of memory (256GB), invoking page-types can
take quite a long time, which is unreasonable considering the user only
wants a description of the flags:
# time ./page-types -d 0x10
0x0000000000000010 ____D_____________________________ dirty
real 0m34.285s
user 0m1.966s
sys 0m32.313s
This is because we still walk the entire address range.
Exiting early seems like a reasonble solution:
# time ./page-types -d 0x10

Teach page-types to describe page flags directly from the command line.
Why is this useful? For instance, if you're using memory hotplug and see
this in /var/log/messages:
kernel: removing from LRU failed 3836dd0/1/1e00000000000010
It would be nice to decode those page flags without staring at the source.
Example usage and output:

A new attribute directory 'bitmap' in 'md' is created which
contains files for configuring the bitmap.
'location' identifies where the bitmap is, either 'none',
or 'file' or 'sector offset from metadata'.
Writing 'location' can create or remove a bitmap.
Adding a 'file' bitmap this way is not yet supported.
'chunksize' and 'time_base' must be set before 'location'
can be set.
'chunksize' can be set before creating a bitmap, but is
currently always over-ridden by the bitmap superblock.
'time_base' and 'backlog' can be updated at any time.

This patch (as1311) fixes a problem in usb-storage: Some devices are
pretty broken when it comes to reporting sense data. The information
they send back indicates that they have more than 18 bytes of sense
data available, but when the system asks for more than 18 they fail or
hang. The symptom is that probing fails with multiple resets.
The patch adds a new BAD_SENSE flag to indicate that usb-storage
should never ask for more than 18 bytes of sense data. The flag can
be set in an unusual_devs entry or via the "quirks=" module parameter,
and it is set automatically whenever a REQUEST SENSE command for more
than 18 bytes fails or times out.
An unusual_devs entry is added for the Agfa photo frame, which uses a
Prolific chip having this bug.

This patch (as1303) revises the USB Power Management infrastructure to
make it compatible with the new driver-model Runtime PM framework:
Drivers are no longer allowed to access intf->pm_usage_cnt
directly; the PM framework manages its own usage counters.
usb_autopm_set_interface() is eliminated, because it directly
sets intf->pm_usage_cnt.
usb_autopm_enable() and usb_autopm_disable() are eliminated,
because they call usb_autopm_set_interface().
usb_autopm_get_interface_no_resume() and
usb_autopm_put_interface_no_suspend() are added. They
correspond to pm_runtime_get_noresume() and
pm_runtime_put_noidle() in the PM framework.
The power/level attribute no longer accepts "suspend", only
"on" and "auto". The PM framework doesn't allow devices to be
forced into a suspended mode.
The hub driver contains the only code that violates the new
guidelines. It is updated to use the new interface routines instead.

Add bus glue driver for Xilinx USB host controller. The controller can be
configured as HS only or HS/FS hybrid. The driver uses the device tree file
to configure the driver according to the setting in the hardware system.
This driver has been tested with usbtest using the NET2280 PCI card.

Users on the list recently complained about differences across
filesystems w.r.t. how to mount without a journal replay.
In the discussion it was noted that xfs's "norecovery" option is
perhaps more descriptively accurate than "noload," so let's make
that an alias for ext3.
Also show this status in /proc/mounts

All callers really want the more logical filemap_fdatawait_range interface,
so convert them to use it and merge wait_on_page_writeback_range into
filemap_fdatawait_range.
