Pull second set of media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"Despite its size, most of the stuff here is trivial. This series
contains:
- s5p-mfc: additions at the driver and at the core to support H.264
hardware codec;
- Some improvements at s5p and davinci embedded drivers;
- Some V4L2 compliance fixes applied on a few drivers;
- Several random trivial patches, including several fixes and a few
new board support additions;
Notes:
1) Some Exynos media patches were dependent on some -arm fixes that
got merged on changeset 782cd9e. That's why this pull request is
based that changeset.
2) As promised, I reviewed the pending VB2 DMABUF series.
While setting a test environment, it was noticed that the upstream
support for Samsung Exynos 4 boards (smdk310 and Origen) are
broken upstream, likely due to regressions: both defconfigs are
wrong and regulator settings for both boards are broken. That,
allied with some bug at the dummy regulator driver, causes OOPSes
during boot time.
Long story short: even fixing the above, the proposed patches
OOPSed when running the DMABUF test. Not sure yet if the OOPSes
are due to some other undetected regressions, or due to some bug
on the patches.
Due to the above, DMABUF patches for vb2 got NACKed for 3.7."

Pull second set of pinctrl patches from Linus Walleij:
"Here is a late pinctrl pull request with stuff that wasn't quite
tested at the first pull request.
The main reason to not hold off is that the modifications to
irq_domain_add_simple() as reviewed by Rob Herring introduce new
infrastructure for irqdomains that will be useful for the next cycle:
instead of sprinkling irq descriptor allocation all over the kernel
wherever a "legacy" domain is registered, which is necessary for any
platform using sparse IRQs, and many irq chips are say GPIO
controllers which may be used with several systems, some with sparse
IRQs some not, we push this into the irq_domain_add_simple() so we can
atleast do mistakes in one place.
The irq_domain_add_simple() is currently unused in the kernel, so I
need to provide a user. The Nomadik stuff that goes with are changes
to the driver I use day-to-day to make use of this facility (and a
dependency), so see it as a way to eat my own dogfood: if this blows
up the egg hits my face.
A second round of pinctrl patches for v3.7:
- Complement the Nomadik pinctrl driver with alternate Cx functions
so it handles all oddities.
- A patch to the IRQdomain to reform the simple irqdomain to handle
IRQ descriptor allocation dynamically.
- Use the above feature in the Nomadik pin controller."

The solution is to always initialize the pointer from follow_link,

Improve atomic.h robustness
I've maintained this patch, originally from Thiemo Seufer in 2004, for a
really long time, but I think it's time for it to get a look at for
possible inclusion. I have had no problems with it across various SGI
systems over the years.
To quote the post here:
http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2004-12/msg00000.html
"the atomic functions use so far memory references for the inline
assembler to access the semaphore. This can lead to additional
instructions in the ll/sc loop, because newer compilers don't
expand the memory reference any more but leave it to the assembler.
The appended patch uses registers instead, and makes the ll/sc
arguments more explicit. In some cases it will lead also to better
register scheduling because the register isn't bound to an output
any more."

resync seemed necessary).
Explicitly writing the 'sync_action' for a read-auto array currently
doesn't clear the read-auto state, so the sync action doesn't
happen, which can be confusing.
So allow any successful write to sync_action to clear any read-auto

e1000e: Change wthresh to 1 to avoid possible Tx stalls
This patch originated from Hiroaki SHIMODA but has been modified
by Intel with some minor cleanups and additional commit log text.
Denys Fedoryshchenko and others reported Tx stalls on e1000e with
BQL enabled. Issue was root caused to hardware delays. They were
introduced because some of the e1000e hardware with transmit
writeback bursting enabled, waits until the driver does an
explict flush OR there are WTHRESH descriptors to write back.
Sometimes the delays in question were on the order of seconds,
causing visible lag for ssh sessions and unacceptable tx
completion latency, especially for BQL enabled kernels.
To avoid possible Tx stalls, change WTHRESH back to 1.
The current plan is to investigate a method for re-enabling
WTHRESH while not harming BQL, but those patches will be later
for net-next if they work.

MD: raid5 avoid unnecessary zero page for trim
We want to avoid zero discarded dev page, because it's useless for discard.
But if we don't zero it, another read/write hit such page in the cache and will
get inconsistent data.
To avoid zero the page, we don't set R5_UPTODATE flag after construction is
done. In this way, discard write request is still issued and finished, but read
will not hit the page. If the stripe gets accessed soon, we need reread the
stripe, but since the chance is low, the reread isn't a big deal.

MD: raid5 trim support
Discard for raid4/5/6 has limitation. If discard request size is
small, we do discard for one disk, but we need calculate parity and
write parity disk. To correctly calculate parity, zero_after_discard
must be guaranteed. Even it's true, we need do discard for one disk
but write another disks, which makes the parity disks wear out
fast. This doesn't make sense. So an efficient discard for raid4/5/6
should discard all data disks and parity disks, which requires the
write pattern to be (A, A+chunk_size, A+chunk_size*2...). If A's size
is smaller than chunk_size, such pattern is almost impossible in
practice. So in this patch, I only handle the case that A's size
equals to chunk_size. That is discard request should be aligned to
stripe size and its size is multiple of stripe size.
Since we can only handle request with specific alignment and size (or
part of the request fitting stripes), we can't guarantee
zero_after_discard even zero_after_discard is true in low level
drives.
The block layer doesn't send down correctly aligned requests even
correct discard alignment is set, so I must filter out.
For raid4/5/6 parity calculation, if data is 0, parity is 0. So if
zero_after_discard is true for all disks, data is consistent after
discard. Otherwise, data might be lost. Let's consider a scenario:
discard a stripe, write data to one disk and write parity disk. The
stripe could be still inconsistent till then depending on using data
from other data disks or parity disks to calculate new parity. If the
disk is broken, we can't restore it. So in this patch, we only enable
discard support if all disks have zero_after_discard.
If discard fails in one disk, we face the similar inconsistent issue
above. The patch will make discard follow the same path as normal
write request. If discard fails, a resync will be scheduled to make
the data consistent. This isn't good to have extra writes, but data
consistency is important.
If a subsequent read/write request hits raid5 cache of a discarded
stripe, the discarded dev page should have zero filled, so the data is
consistent. This patch will always zero dev page for discarded request
stripe. This isn't optimal because discard request doesn't need such
payload. Next patch will avoid it.

DM RAID: Fix for "sync" directive ineffectiveness
There are two table arguments that can be given to a DM RAID target
that control whether the array is forced to (re)synchronize or skip
initialization: "sync" and "nosync". When "sync" is given, we set
mddev->recovery_cp to 0 in order to cause the device to resynchronize.
This is insufficient if there is a bitmap in use, because the array
will simply look at the bitmap and see that there is no recovery
necessary.
The fix is to skip over the loading of the superblocks when "sync" is
given, causing new superblocks to be written that will force the array
to go through initialization (i.e. synchronization).
If vxlan is created and the ifindex is passed; there are two cases which
are incorrectly handled by the existing code. The ifindex could be zero
(i.e. no device) or there could be no device with that ifindex.
Vxlan was trying to use postpull_rcsum to allow receive checksum
offload to work on drivers using CHECKSUM_COMPLETE method. But this
doesn't work correctly. Just force full receive checksum on received
packet.
