b918e5e60d kprobes: cleanup aggr_kprobe related code
Currently, kprobes can disable all probes at once, but can't disable it
individually (not unregister, just disable an kprobe, because
unregistering needs to wait for scheduler synchronization).  These patches
introduce APIs for on-the-fly per-probe disabling and re-enabling by
dis-arming/re-arming its breakpoint instruction.

This patch:

Change old_p to ap in add_new_kprobe() for readability, copy flags member
in add_aggr_kprobe(), and simplify the code flow of
register_aggr_kprobe().

fd5e191e76 SPI: add dma_alignment field to spi_master
Some SPI controllers have restrictions on DMAable buffers alignemt.
Currently if the buffer supplied by protocol driver is not properly
aligned, the controller silently performs transfer in PIO mode.  Addition
of dma_alignment field to spi_master allows protocol drivers to perform
proper alignment.

93b61bddc1 Blackfin SPI Driver: Make mmc_spi driver work on Blackfin
1. Rewrite of the non-dma data transfer functions to use only ONE mode
   of TIMOD (TIMOD=0x1).  With TIMOD=0, it was not possible to set the TX
   bit pattern.  So the TDBR = 0xFFFF inside the read calls won't work.

2. Clear SPI_RDBR before reading and before duplex transfer.
   Otherwise the garbage data in RDBR will get read.  Since mmc_spi uses a
   lot of duplex transfers, this is the main cause of mmc_spi failure.

3. Poll RXS for transfer completion.  Polling SPIF or TXS cannot
   guarantee transfer completion.  This may interrupt a transfer before it
   is finished.  Also this may leave garbage data in buffer and affect
   next transfer.

42c78b2bf5 Blackfin SPI Driver: Add GPIO controlled SPI Slave Select support
Add support for GPIO controlled SPI Chip Selects.  To make use of this
feature, set chip_select = 0 and add a proper cs_gpio to your
controller_data.

struct spi_board_info
        .chip_select = 0

struct bfin5xx_spi_chip
        .cs_gpio = GPIO_P###

There are various SPI devices that require SPI MODE_0, and need to have
the Chip Selects asserted during the entire transfer.  Consider using
SPI_MODE_3 (SPI_CPHA | SPI_CPOL) if your device allows it.

b9b2a76a43 Blackfin SPI Driver: fix bug - correct usage of struct spi_transfer.cs_change
According to comments in linux/spi/spi.h:

 * All SPI transfers start with the relevant chipselect active.  Normally
 * it stays selected until after the last transfer in a message. Drivers
 * can affect the chipselect signal using cs_change.
 *
 * (i) If the transfer isn't the last one in the message, this flag is
 * used to make the chipselect briefly go inactive in the middle of the
 * message.  Toggling chipselect in this way may be needed to terminate
 * a chip command, letting a single spi_message perform all of group of
 * chip transactions together.
 *
 * (ii) When the transfer is the last one in the message, the chip may
 * stay selected until the next transfer.  On multi-device SPI busses
 * with nothing blocking messages going to other devices, this is just
 * a performance hint; starting a message to another device deselects
 * this one.  But in other cases, this can be used to ensure correctness.
 * Some devices need protocol transactions to be built from a series of
 * spi_message submissions, where the content of one message is determined
 * by the results of previous messages and where the whole transaction
 * ends when the chipselect goes intactive.

2cf3683472 Blackfin SPI Driver: fix bug - spi controller driver does not assert/deassert CS correctly
This bug can be observed when two SPI devices are sharing the spi bus: One
device is set as SPI CS 7, another one is using SPI CS 4.

In spi_bfin5xx.c: cs_active(), cs_deactive() are used to control SPI_FLG
register.  From the debug bellow:

cs_active: flag: 0x7f91, chip->flag: 0x7f80, cs: 7
cs_active: flag: 0xef91, chip->flag: 0xef10, cs: 4

When device A (cs_7) activate CS 7, SPI_FLG is set as 0x7f91 (however,
SPI_FLG should be set as 0x7f80, or 0x6f91 if in broadcast mode).

Due to some HW bug (very possibly), if SPI_FLG is set as 0x7f91, SPISSEL7
is asserted, however SPISSEL4 will be asserted too (I can see this using
the scope).  This is unreasonable according to HRM.

11d6f59951 Blackfin SPI Driver: get dma working for SPI flashes
When using a BF533-STAMP here with a W25X10 SPI flash.  It works fine when
enable_dma is disabled, but doesn't work at all when turning DMA on.  We

Change the code around so that it programs the SPI first and then enables
DMA, it seems to work a lot better ...

fafd688e4c mm: add /proc controls for pdflush threads
Add /proc entries to give the admin the ability to control the minimum and
maximum number of pdflush threads.  This allows finer control of pdflush
on both large and small machines.

The rationale is simply one size does not fit all.  Admins on large and/or
small systems may want to tune the min/max pdflush thread count to best
suit their needs.  Right now the min/max is hardcoded to 2/8.  While
probably a fair estimate for smaller machines, large machines with large
numbers of CPUs and large numbers of filesystems/block devices may benefit
from larger numbers of threads working on different block devices.

Even if the background flushing algorithm is radically changed, it is
still likely that multiple threads will be involved and admins would still
desire finer control on the min/max other than to have to recompile the
kernel.

The patch adds '/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads_min' and
'/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads_max' with r/w permissions.

The minimum value for nr_pdflush_threads_min is 1 and the maximum value is
the current value of nr_pdflush_threads_max.  This minimum is required
since additional thread creation is performed in a pdflush thread itself.

The minimum value for nr_pdflush_threads_max is the current value of
nr_pdflush_threads_min and the maximum value can be 1000.

Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt is also updated.

a56ed66304 mm: fix pdflush thread creation upper bound
Fix a race on creating pdflush threads.  Without the patch, it is possible
to create more than MAX_PDFLUSH_THREADS threads, and this has been
observed in practice on IO loaded SMP machines.

The fix involves moving the lock around to protect the check against the
thread count and correctly dealing with thread creation failure.

This fix also _mostly_ repairs a race condition on how quickly the threads
are created.  The original intent was to create a pdflush thread (up to
the max allowed) every second.  Without this patch is is possible to
create NCPUS pdflush threads concurrently.  The 'mostly' caveat is because
an assumption is made that thread creation will be successful.  If we fail
to create the thread, the miss is not considered fatal.  (we will try
again in 1 second)

d9ad8bc0ca branch tracer: Fix for enabling branch profiling makes sparse unusable
One of the changes between kernels 2.6.28 and 2.6.29 is that a branch profiler
has been added for if() statements. Unfortunately this patch makes the sparse
output unusable with CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING=y: when branch profiling is
enabled, sparse prints so much false positives that the real issues are no
longer visible. This behavior can be reproduced as follows:
* enable CONFIG_TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING, e.g. by running make allyesconfig or
  make allmodconfig.
* run make C=2

Result: a huge number of the following sparse warnings.
...
include/linux/cpumask.h:547:2: warning: symbol '______r' shadows an earlier one
include/linux/cpumask.h:547:2: originally declared here
...

The patch below fixes this by disabling branch profiling while analyzing the
kernel code with sparse.

This happens with CONFIG_SKY2=y, and "ip=on" kernel command line, so
pci_vpd_truncate() is called before late_initcall(pci_sysfs_init),
therefore ->attr isn't yet initialized.

2c03d07ad5 hwmon: Add Asus ATK0110 support
Asus boards have an ACPI interface for interacting with the hwmon (fan,
temperatures, voltages) subsystem; this driver exposes the relevant
information via the standard sysfs interface.

There are two different ACPI interfaces:
- an old one (based on RVLT/RFAN/RTMP)
- a new one (GGRP/GITM)
Both may be present but there a few cases (my board, sigh) where the
new interface is just an empty stub; the driver defaults to the old one
when both are present.
The old interface has received a considerable testing, but I'm still
awaiting confirmation from my tester that the new one is working as
expected (hence the debug code is still enabled).

Currently all the attributes are read-only, though a (partial) control
should be possible with a bit more work.

This is because we alloc the iter->started cpumask on tracing_pipe_open but
not on tracing_open.

It hadn't been noticed until now because we need to have ring buffer overruns
to activate the starting of cpu buffer detection.

Also, we need a check to not print the messagge for the first trace on the file.

5ac9f62267 function-graph: add proper initialization for init task
Impact: fix to crash going to kexec

The init task did not properly initialize the function graph pointers.
Altough these pointers are NULL, they can not be assumed to be NULL
for the init task, and must still be properly initialize.

This usually is not an issue since a problem only arises when a task
exits, and the init tasks do not usually exit. But when doing tests
with kexec, the init tasks do exit, and the bug appears.

This patch properly initializes the init tasks function graph data
structures.
