Stefan Richter eaf76e0d02 firewire: sbp2: provide fallback if mgt_ORB_timeout is missing
The Unit_Characteristics entry of an SBP-2 unit directory is not
mandatory as far as I can tell.  If it is missing, we would probably
fail to log in into the target because firewire-sbp2 would not wait for
status after it sent the login request.

The fix moves the cleanup of tgt->mgt_orb_timeout into a place where it
is executed exactly once before login, rather than 0..n times depending
on the target's config ROM.  With targets with one or more
Unit_Characteristics entries, the result is the same as before.

Chris Mason 444528b3e6 Btrfs: always pin metadata in discard mode
We have an optimization in btrfs to allow blocks to be
immediately freed if they were allocated in this transaction and never
written.  Otherwise they are pinned and freed when the transaction
commits.

This isn't optimal for discard mode because immediately freeing
them means immediately discarding them.  It is better to give the
block to the pinning code and letting the (slow) discard happen later.

Michael Holzheu 03cadd36d5 [S390] tape390: Fix request queue handling in block driver
When setting a channel attached tape online under Linux 2.6.31, the

"vol_id" process from udev hangs in sync_page():
 2 sync_page+144 [0x1dfaac]
 3 __wait_on_bit_lock+194 [0x58c23e]
 4 __lock_page+116 [0x1df9dc]
 5 truncate_inode_pages_range+728 [0x1ed7cc]

 7 __fput+300 [0x229c4c]
 8 filp_close+122 [0x225a3a]

The reason for that is an error in the request queue handling. It can
happen that we fetch a request, but do not process it further because
the number of queued requests exceeds TAPEBLOCK_MIN_REQUEUE.
To fix this, we should call blk_peek_request() instead of
blk_fetch_request() in the while condition and fetch the request in
the loop body afterwards.

This bug was introduced with the patch "block: implement and enforce
request peek/start/fetch" (9934c8c045)

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 8d8997f34e powerpc/mm: Fix hang accessing top of vmalloc space
On pSeries, we always force the IO space to be mapped using 4K
pages even with a 64K base page size to cope with some limitations
in the HV interface to some devices.

However, the SLB miss handler code to discriminate between vmalloc
and ioremap space uses a CPU feature section such that the code
is nop'ed out when the processor support large pages non-cachable
mappings.

Thus, we end up always using the ioremap page size for vmalloc
segments on such processors, causing a discrepency between the
segment and the hash table, and thus a hang continously hashing
the page.

It works for the first segment of the vmalloc space since that
segment is "bolted" in by C code correctly, and thankfully we
almost never use the vmalloc space beyond the first segment,
but the new percpu code made the bug happen.

This fixes it by removing the feature section from the assembly,
we now always do the comparison between vmalloc and ioremap.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 11a50873ef powerpc/pmac: Fix issues with sleep on some powerbooks
Since the change of how interrupts are disabled during suspend,
certain PowerBook models started exhibiting various issues during
suspend or resume from sleep.

I finally tracked it down to the code that runs various "platform"
functions (kind of little scripts extracted from the device-tree),
which uses our i2c and PMU drivers expecting interrutps to work,
and at a time where with the new scheme, they have been disabled.

This causes timeouts internally which for some reason results in
the PMU being unable to see the trackpad, among other issues, really
it depends on the machine. Most of the time, we fail to properly adjust
some clocks for suspend/resume so the results are not always
predictable.

This patch fixes it by using IRQF_TIMER for both the PMU and the I2C
interrupts. I prefer doing it this way than moving the call sites since
I really want those platform functions to still be called after all
drivers (and before sysdevs).

We also do a slight cleanup to via-pmu.c driver to make sure the
ADB autopoll mask is handled correctly when doing bus resets

When the function graph tracer is enabled, it replaces the return address
with a hook back to the tracer. This makes back traces see the hook instead
of the actual return address.

The current code also shows the real address by checking if the return
address jumps to the return_to_handler. If it is, is also prints out
the saved real return address.

On powerpc64, some modules may return to mod_return_to_handler, which
is not checked. This patch will also show the real address if a return
is to mod_return_to_handler as well.

Sriram 0fe7463a35 TI DaVinci EMAC: Clear statistics register properly.
The mechanism to clear the statistics register is dependent
on the status of GMIIEN bit in MAC control register. If the
GMIIEN bit is set, the stats registers are write to decrement.
If the GMIIEN bit is cleared, the stats registers are plain
read/write registers. The stats register clearing operation
must take into account the current state of GMIIEN as it
can be cleared when the interface is brought down.

With existing implementation logic, querying for interface stats
when the interface is down, can corrupt the statistics counters.
This patch examines the GMIIEN bit status in MAC_CONTROL
register before choosing an appropriate mask for clearing stats
registers.

1) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for a given root.

2) write and wait for all the tree log blocks for the
tree of tree log roots.

3) write and wait for the super blocks (barriers here)

This isn't as efficient as it could be because there is
no requirement to wait for the blocks from step one to hit the disk
before we start writing the blocks from step two.  This commit
changes the sequence so that we don't start waiting until
all the tree blocks from both steps one and two have been sent
to disk.

We do this by breaking up btrfs_write_wait_marked_extents into
two functions, which is trivial because it was already broken
up into two parts.

Chris Mason 257c62e1bc Btrfs: avoid tree log commit when there are no changes
rpm has a habit of running fdatasync when the file hasn't
changed.  We already detect if a file hasn't been changed
in the current transaction but it might have been sent to
the tree-log in this transaction and not changed since
the last call to fsync.

In this case, we want to avoid a tree log sync, which includes
a number of synchronous writes and barriers.  This commit
extends the existing tracking of the last transaction to change
a file to also track the last sub-transaction.

The end result is that rpm -ivh and -Uvh are roughly twice as fast,
and on par with ext3.

Chris Mason 4722607db6 Btrfs: only write one super copy during fsync
During a tree-log commit for fsync, we've been writing at least
two copies of the super block and forcing them to disk.

The other filesystems write only one, and this change brings us on
par with them.  A full transaction commit will write all the super
copies, so we still have redundant info written on a regular
basis.
