Kiyoshi Ueda ecdb2e257a dm table: remove dm_get from dm_table_get_md
Remove the dm_get() in dm_table_get_md() because dm_table_get_md() could
be called from presuspend/postsuspend, which are called while
mapped_device is in DMF_FREEING state, where dm_get() is not allowed.

Justification for that is the lifetime of both objects: As far as the
current dm design/implementation, mapped_device is never freed while
targets are doing something, because dm core waits for targets to become
quiet in dm_put() using presuspend/postsuspend.  So targets should be
able to touch mapped_device without holding reference count of the
mapped_device, and we should allow targets to touch mapped_device even
if it is in DMF_FREEING state.

Backgrounds:
I'm trying to remove the multipath internal queue, since dm core now has
a generic queue for request-based dm.  In the patch-set, the multipath
target wants to request dm core to start/stop queue.  One of such
start/stop requests can happen during postsuspend() while the target
waits for pg-init to complete, because the target stops queue when
starting pg-init and tries to restart it when completing pg-init.  Since
queue belongs to mapped_device, it involves calling dm_table_get_md()
and dm_put().  On the other hand, postsuspend() is called in dm_put()
for mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, and that triggers
BUG_ON(DMF_FREEING) in the 2nd dm_put().

I had tried to solve this problem by changing only multipath not to
touch mapped_device which is in DMF_FREEING state, but I couldn't and I
came up with a question why we need dm_get() in dm_table_get_md().

Moger, Babu f7b934c812 dm mpath: skip activate_path for failed paths
This patch adds two minor fixes while processing device mapper path activation.

Skip failed paths while calling activate_path.  If the path is already failed
then activate_path will fail for sure. We don't have to call in that case. In
some case this might cause prolonged retries unnecessarily.

Change the misleading message if the path being activated fails with SCSI_DH_NOSYS.

Moger, Babu 83c0d5d538 dm mpath: pass struct pgpath to pg init done
This patch removes some unnecessary argument casting. There is no
functional change with this patch.

Passes 'struct pgpath' through to pg_init_done() instead of the enclosed
'struct dm_path'.

Tested the changes with LSI storage..

Rafael J. Wysocki bb910a7040 PCI/PM Runtime: Make runtime PM of PCI devices inactive by default
Make the run-time power management of PCI devices be inactive by
default by calling pm_runtime_forbid() for each PCI device during its
initialization.  This setting may be overriden by the user space with
the help of the /sys/devices/.../power/control interface.

That's necessary to avoid breakage on systems where ACPI-based
wake-up is known to fail for some devices.

Add support for the automatic fan speed control interface as

interface.

I implemented the old and not the new interface because the only chip
I have at hand is an old one, and the new interface is more difficult
to map to the standard sysfs interface. Adding support later should be
possible though, if someone with a supported chip is interested.

Trond Myklebust 2928db1ffe NFS: Ensure inode is always marked I_DIRTY_DATASYNC, if it has unstable pages
Since nfs_scan_list() doesn't wait for locked pages, we have a race in
which it is possible to end up with an inode that needs to send a COMMIT,
but which does not have the I_DIRTY_DATASYNC flag set.

Trond Myklebust 420e3646bb NFS: Reduce the number of unnecessary COMMIT calls
If the caller is doing a non-blocking flush, and there are still writebacks
pending on the wire, we can usually defer the COMMIT call until those
writes are done.

Also ensure that we honour the wbc->nonblocking flag.

Trond Myklebust ff778d02bf NFS: Add a count of the number of unstable writes carried by an inode
In order to know when we should do opportunistic commits of the unstable
writes, when the VM is doing a background flush, we add a field to count
the number of unstable writes.
