cifs: obtain file access during backup intent lookup (resend)
Rebased and resending the patch.
Path based queries can fail for lack of access, especially during lookup
during open.
open itself would actually succeed becasue of back up intent bit
but queries (either path or file handle based) do not have a means to
specifiy backup intent bit.
So query the file info during lookup using
trans2 / findfirst / file_id_full_dir_info
to obtain file info as well as file_id/inode value.

This patch adds simple clock framework for handling all possible CPU rates.
Sasha Levin has been running trinity in a KVM tools guest, and was able
to trigger the BUG_ON() at arch/x86/mm/pat.c:279 (verifying the range of
the memory type). The call trace showed that it was mtdchar_mmap() that
created an invalid remap_pfn_range().
The problem is that mtdchar_mmap() does various really odd and subtle
things with the vma page offset etc, and uses the wrong types (and the
wrong overflow) detection for it.
For example, the page offset may well be 32-bit on a 32-bit
architecture, but after shifting it up by PAGE_SHIFT, we need to use a
potentially 64-bit resource_size_t to correctly hold the full value.
Also, we need to check that the vma length plus offset doesn't overflow
before we check that it is smaller than the length of the mtdmap region.
This fixes things up and tries to make the code a bit easier to read.

The userspace part of UML uses the asm-offsets.h generator mechanism to
create definitions for UM_KERN_<LEVEL> that match the in-kernel
KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions.
As of commit 04d2c8c83d0e3ac5f78aeede51babb3236200112 ("printk: convert
the format for KERN_<LEVEL> to a 2 byte pattern"), KERN_<LEVEL> is no
longer expanded to the literal '"<LEVEL>"', but to '"\001" "LEVEL"', i.e.
it contains two parts.
However, the combo of DEFINE_STR() in
arch/x86/um/shared/sysdep/kernel-offsets.h and sed-y in Kbuild doesn't
support string literals consisting of multiple parts. Hence for all
UM_KERN_<LEVEL> definitions, only the SOH character is retained in the actual
definition, while the remainder ends up in the comment. E.g. in
include/generated/asm-offsets.h we get
#define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" /* "6" KERN_INFO */
instead of
#define UM_KERN_INFO "\001" "6" /* KERN_INFO */
This causes spurious '^A' output in some kernel messages:

- Move the mapping from UM_KERN_<LEVEL> to KERN_<LEVEL> from

parts,
- Preinclude include/linux/kern_levels.h for all userspace parts, to
obtain the in-kernel KERN_<LEVEL> constant definitions. This doesn't
violate the kernel/userspace separation, as include/linux/kern_levels.h
is self-contained and doesn't expose any other kernel internals.
- Remove the now unused STR() and DEFINE_STR() macros.

only need the one-way enable. Also, make the functions inline to make
them (somewhat) harder to abuse.
This does mean that SMEP and SMAP do not get initialized anywhere near
as early. Even using early_param() instead of __setup() doesn't give
us control early enough to do this during the early cpu initialization
phase. This seems reasonable to me, because SMEP and SMAP should not
matter until we have userspace to protect ourselves from, but it does

USB: Fix race condition when removing host controllers
This patch (as1607) fixes a race that can occur if a USB host
controller is removed while a process is reading the
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices file.
The usb_device_read() routine uses the bus->root_hub pointer to
determine whether or not the root hub is registered. The is not a
valid test, because the pointer is set before the root hub gets
registered and remains set even after the root hub is unregistered and
deallocated. As a result, usb_device_read() or usb_device_dump() can
access freed memory, causing an oops.
The patch changes the test to use the hcd->rh_registered flag, which
does get set and cleared at the appropriate times. It also makes sure
to hold the usb_bus_list_lock mutex while setting the flag, so that
usb_device_read() will become aware of new root hubs as soon as they
are registered.

dm thin: tidy discard support
A little thin discard code refactoring to make the next patch (dm thin:
fix discard support for data devices) more readable.
Pull out a couple of functions (and uses bools instead of unsigned for
features).

dm: retain table limits when swapping to new table with no devices
Add a safety net that will re-use the DM device's existing limits in the
event that DM device has a temporary table that doesn't have any
component devices. This is to reduce the chance that requests not
respecting the hardware limits will reach the device.
DM recalculates queue limits based only on devices which currently exist
in the table. This creates a problem in the event all devices are
temporarily removed such as all paths being lost in multipath. DM will
reset the limits to the maximum permissible, which can then assemble
requests which exceed the limits of the paths when the paths are
restored. The request will fail the blk_rq_check_limits() test when
sent to a path with lower limits, and will be retried without end by
multipath. This became a much bigger issue after v3.6 commit fe86cdcef
("block: do not artificially constrain max_sectors for stacking
drivers").

dm table: clear add_random unless all devices have it set
Always clear QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM if any underlying device does not
have it set. Otherwise devices with predictable characteristics may
contribute entropy.
QUEUE_FLAG_ADD_RANDOM specifies whether or not queue IO timings
contribute to the random pool.
For bio-based targets this flag is always 0 because such devices have no
real queue.
For request-based devices this flag was always set to 1 by default.
Now set it according to the flags on underlying devices. If there is at
least one device which should not contribute, set the flag to zero: If a
device, such as fast SSD storage, is not suitable for supplying entropy,
a request-based queue stacked over it will not be either.
Because the checking logic is exactly same as for the rotational flag,
share the iteration function with device_is_nonrot().

dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ON
The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to
dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7ad950280e4b2208 ("dm: implement
REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly
drastic (but simple) response to this situation.
I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think
it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone
and original request with -EIO.
map_request() will assign the valid target returned by
dm_table_find_target to tio->ti. But when the target
isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't
called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

dm mpath: only retry ioctl when no paths if queue_if_no_path set
When there are no paths and multipath receives an ioctl, it waits until
a path becomes available. This behaviour is incorrect if the
"queue_if_no_path" setting was not specified, as then the ioctl should
be rejected immediately, which this patch now does.
commit 35991652b ("dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init") should
have checked if queue_if_no_path was configured before queueing IO.
Checking for the queue_if_no_path feature, like is done in map_io(),
allows the following table load to work without blocking in the
multipath_ioctl retry loop:

dm thin: do not set discard_zeroes_data
The dm thin pool target claims to support the zeroing of discarded
data areas. This turns out to be incorrect when processing discards
that do not exactly cover a complete number of blocks, so the target
must always set discard_zeroes_data_unsupported.
The thin pool target will zero blocks when they are allocated if the
skip_block_zeroing feature is not specified. The block layer
may send a discard that only partly covers a block. If a thin pool
block is partially discarded then there is no guarantee that the
discarded data will get zeroed before it is accessed again.
Due to this, thin devices cannot claim discards will always zero data.

x86, suspend: On wakeup always initialize cr4 and EFER
We already have a flag word to indicate the existence of MISC_ENABLES,
so use the same flag word to indicate existence of cr4 and EFER, and
always restore them if they exist. That way if something passes a
nonzero value when the value *should* be zero, we will still
initialize it.

x86-32: Start out eflags and cr4 clean
%cr4 is supposed to reflect a set of features into which the operating
system is opting in. If the BIOS or bootloader leaks bits here, this
is not desirable. Consider a bootloader passing in %cr4.pae set to a
legacy paging kernel, for example -- it will not have any immediate
effect, but the kernel would crash when turning paging on.
A similar argument applies to %eflags, and since we have to look for
%eflags.id being settable we can use a sequence which clears %eflags
as a side effect.

USB: ezusb: move ezusb.c from drivers/usb/serial to drivers/usb/misc
This patch
- moves drivers/usb/serial/ezusb.c to drivers/usb/misc/
- renamed CONFIG_USB_EZUSB to CONFIG_USB_EZUSB_FX2 to avoid build errors
- adapts Makefiles and Kconfigs switching from bool to tristate for CONFIG_USB_EZUSB_FX2
