f3c7691e8d leases: fix write-open/read-lease race
In setlease, we use i_writecount to decide whether we can give out a
read lease.

In open, we break leases before incrementing i_writecount.

There is therefore a window between the break lease and the i_writecount
increment when setlease could add a new read lease.

This would leave us with a simultaneous write open and read lease, which
shouldn't happen.

using maxbytes from the superblock.

ef3d0fd27e vfs: do (nearly) lockless generic_file_llseek
The i_mutex lock use of generic _file_llseek hurts.  Independent processes
accessing the same file synchronize over a single lock, even though
they have no need for synchronization at all.

Under high utilization this can cause llseek to scale very poorly on larger
systems.

This patch does some rethinking of the llseek locking model:

First the 64bit f_pos is not necessarily atomic without locks
on 32bit systems. This can already cause races with read() today.
This was discussed on linux-kernel in the past and deemed acceptable.
The patch does not change that.

Let's look at the different seek variants:

SEEK_SET: Doesn't really need any locking.
If there's a race one writer wins, the other loses.

For 32bit the non atomic update races against read()
stay the same. Without a lock they can also happen
against write() now.  The read() race was deemed
acceptable in past discussions, and I think if it's
ok for read it's ok for write too.

=> Don't need a lock.

SEEK_END: This behaves like SEEK_SET plus it reads
the maximum size too. Reading the maximum size would have the
32bit atomic problem. But luckily we already have a way to read
the maximum size without locking (i_size_read), so we
can just use that instead.

Without i_mutex there is no synchronization with write() anymore,
however since the write() update is atomic on 64bit it just behaves
like another racy SEEK_SET.  On non atomic 32bit it's the same
as SEEK_SET.

=> Don't need a lock, but need to use i_size_read()

SEEK_CUR: This has a read-modify-write race window
on the same file. One could argue that any application
doing unsynchronized seeks on the same file is already broken.
But for the sake of not adding a regression here I'm
using the file->f_lock to synchronize this. Using this
lock is much better than the inode mutex because it doesn't
synchronize between processes.

=> So still need a lock, but can use a f_lock.

This patch implements this new scheme in generic_file_llseek.
I dropped generic_file_llseek_unlocked and changed all callers.

ba253fbf6d direct-io: inline the complete submission path
Add inlines to all the submission path functions. While this increases
code size it also gives gcc a lot of optimization opportunities
in this critical hotpath.

In particular -- together with some other changes -- this
allows gcc to get rid of the unnecessary clearing of
sdio at the beginning and optimize the messy parameter passing.
Any non inlining of a function which takes a sdio parameter
would break this optimization because they cannot be done if the
address of a structure is taken.

Note that benefits are only seen with CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING
and CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE both set to off.

This gives about 2.2% improvement on a large database benchmark
with a high IOPS rate.

18772641db direct-io: separate map_bh from dio
Only a single b_private field in the map_bh buffer head is needed after
the submission path. Move map_bh separately to avoid storing
this information in the long term slab.

This avoids the weird 104 byte hole in struct dio_submit which also needed
to be memseted early.

6e8267f532 direct-io: use a slab cache for struct dio
A direct slab call is slightly faster than kmalloc and can be better cached
per CPU. It also avoids rounding to the next kmalloc slab.

In addition this enforces cache line alignment for struct dio to avoid
any false sharing.

eb28be2b4c direct-io: separate fields only used in the submission path from struct dio
This large, but largely mechanic, patch moves all fields in struct dio
that are only used in the submission path into a separate on stack
data structure. This has the advantage that the memory is very likely
cache hot, which is not guaranteed for memory fresh out of kmalloc.

This also gives gcc more optimization potential because it can easier
determine that there are no external aliases for these variables.

The sdio initialization is a initialization now instead of memset.
This allows gcc to break sdio into individual fields and optimize
away unnecessary zeroing (after all the functions are inlined)

1448c721e4 compat: sync compat_stats with statfs.
This was found by inspection while tracking a similar
bug in compat_statfs64, that has been fixed in mainline
since decemeber.

- This fixes a bug where not all of the f_spare fields
  were cleared on mips and s390.
- Add the f_flags field to struct compat_statfs
- Copy f_flags to userspace in case someone cares.
- Use __clear_user to copy the f_spare field to userspace
  to ensure that all of the elements of f_spare are cleared.
  On some architectures f_spare is has 5 ints and on some
  architectures f_spare only has 4 ints.  Which makes
  the previous technique of clearing each int individually
  broken.

I don't expect anyone actually uses the old statfs system
call anymore but if they do let them benefit from having
the compat and the native version working the same.

39be79c16f vfs: iov_iter: have iov_iter_advance decrement nr_segs appropriately
Currently, when you call iov_iter_advance, then the pointer to the iovec
array can be incremented, but it does not decrement the nr_segs value in
the iov_iter struct. The result is a iov_iter struct with a nr_segs
value that goes beyond the end of the array.

While I'm not aware of anything that's specifically broken by this, it
seems odd and a bit dangerous not to decrement that value. If someone
were to trust the nr_segs value to be correct, then they could end up
walking off the end of the array.

Changing this might also provide some micro-optimization when dealing
with the last iovec in an array. Many of the other routines that deal
with iov_iter have optimized codepaths when nr_segs == 1.

3c20f72f91 stmmac: update normal descriptor structure (v2)
This patch updates the normal descriptor structure
to work fine on new GMAC Synopsys chips.

Normal descriptors were designed on the old MAC10/100
databook 1.91 where some bits were reserved: for example
the tx checksum insertion and rx checksum offload.

The patch maintains the back-compatibility with old
MAC devices (tested on STx7109 MAC10/100) and adds new
fields that actually new GMAC devices can use.

For example, STx7109 (MAC10/100) will pass from the platform
  tx_coe = 0, enh_desc = 0, has_gmac = 0.
A platform like Loongson1B (GMAC) will pass:
  tx_coe = 1, enh_desc = 0, has_gmac = 1.

Thanks to Kelvin, he enhanced the normal descriptors for
GMAC (on MIPS Loongson1B platform).

The FW includes the following fixes:
  1. (iSCSI) Arrival of un-solicited ASYNC message causes
     firmware to abort the connection with RST.
  2. (FCoE) There is a probability that truncated FCoE packet on
     RX path won't get detected which might lead to FW assert.
  3. (iSCSI) Arrival of target-initiated NOP-IN during intense
     ISCSI traffic might lead to FW assert.
  4. (iSCSI) Chip hangs when in case of retransmission not aligned
     to 4-bytes from the beginning of iSCSI PDU.
  5. (FCoE) Arrival of packets beyond task IO size can lead to crash.
