Lee Schermerhorn e8c5c82498 hugetlb: balance freeing of huge pages across nodes
Free huges pages from nodes in round robin fashion in an attempt to keep
[persistent a.k.a static] hugepages balanced across nodes

New function free_pool_huge_page() is modeled on and performs roughly the
inverse of alloc_fresh_huge_page().  Replaces dequeue_huge_page() which
now has no callers, so this patch removes it.

Helper function hstate_next_node_to_free() uses new hstate member
next_to_free_nid to distribute "frees" across all nodes with huge pages.

Shaohua Li abfc348811 memory hotplug: migrate swap cache page
In test, some pages in swap-cache can't be migrated, as they aren't rmap.

unmap_and_move() ignores swap-cache page which is just read in and hasn't
rmap (see the comments in the code), but swap_aops provides .migratepage.
Better to migrate such pages instead of ignore them.

Shaohua Li f52407ce2d memory hotplug: alloc page from other node in memory online
To initialize hotadded node, some pages are allocated.  At that time, the
node hasn't memory, this makes the allocation always fail.  In such case,
let's allocate pages from other nodes.

Shaohua Li 8e7e40d965 memory hotplug: make pages from movable zone always isolatable
Pages on movable zone have two types, MIGRATE_MOVABLE and MIGRATE_RESERVE,
both them can be movable, because only movable memory allocation can get
pages from movable zone.  This makes pages in movable zone always be able
to migrate.

Shaohua Li 6fb332fabd memory hotplug: exclude isolated page from pco page alloc
Pages marked as isolated should not be allocated again.  If such pages
reside in pcp list, they can be allocated too, so there is a ping-pong
memory offline frees some pages to pcp list and the pages get allocated
and then memory offline frees them again, this loop will happen again and
again.

This should have no impact in normal code path, because in normal code
path, pages in pcp list aren't isolated, and below loop will break in the
first entry.

Shaohua Li 112067f090 memory hotplug: update zone pcp at memory online
In my test, 128M memory is hot added, but zone's pcp batch is 0, which is
an obvious error.  When pages are onlined, zone pcp should be updated
accordingly.

David Rientjes 478b81fd84 mm: remove obsoleted alloc_pages cpuset comment
When a cpuset's nodemask is updated, all attached tasks have their cached
task->mems_allowed updated by a heap instead of requiring an explicit call
to cpuset_update_task_memory_state(), which has since been removed in
58568d2a82 ("cpuset,mm: update tasks'
mems_allowed in time").

Remove the obsoleted comment from the page allocator.

Jan Kara 580be0837a fs: make sure data stored into inode is properly seen before unlocking new inode
In theory it could happen that on one CPU we initialize a new inode but
clearing of I_NEW | I_LOCK gets reordered before some of the
initialization.  Thus on another CPU we return not fully uptodate inode
from iget_locked().

This seems to fix a corruption issue on ext3 mounted over NFS.

Jens Axboe 48d0764998 nfs: initialize the backing_dev_info when creating the server
NFS may free the server structure without ever having used the
bdi, so we either need to flag the bdi as being uninitialized or
initialize it up front. This does the latter.

This fixes a crash with mounting more than one NFS file system,
should people ever need that kind of obscure NFS functionality.

Ingo Molnar cdd6c482c9 perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

Ingo Molnar 65abc8653c perf_counter: Rename list_entry -> group_entry, counter_list -> group_list
This is in preparation of the big rename, but also makes sense
in a standalone way: 'list_entry' is a bad name as we already
have a list_entry() in list.h.

Also, the 'counter list' is too vague, it doesnt tell us the
purpose of that list.

Clarify these names to show that it's all about the group
hiearchy.

Paul Mackerras cd74c86bdf perf_counter, powerpc, sparc: Fix compilation after perf_counter_overflow() change
Commit 5622f295 ("x86, perf_counter, bts: Optimize BTS overflow
handling") removed the regs field from struct perf_sample_data and
added a regs parameter to perf_counter_overflow().  This breaks the
build on powerpc (and Sparc) as reported by Sachin Sant:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c: In function 'record_and_restart':
  arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c:1165: error: unknown field 'regs' specified in initializer

This adjusts arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c to correspond with the
new struct perf_sample_data and perf_counter_overflow().

[ v2: also fix Sparc, Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> ]

Dave Airlie 28d520433b drm/vgaarb: add VGA arbitration support to the drm and kms.
VGA arb requires DRM support for non-kms drivers, to turn on/off
irqs when disabling the mem/io regions.

VGA arb requires KMS support for GPUs where we can turn off VGA
decoding. Currently we know how to do this for intel and radeon
kms drivers, which allows them to be removed from the arbiter.

This patch comes from Fedora rawhide kernel.
