On an error path in inotify_init1 a normal user can trigger a double
free of struct user. This is a regression introduced by a2ae4cc9a1
("inotify: stop kernel memory leak on file creation failure").
We fix this by making sure that if a group exists the user reference is
dropped when the group is cleaned up. We should not explictly drop the
reference on error and also drop the reference when the group is cleaned
up.
The new lifetime rules are that an inotify group lives from
inotify_new_group to the last fsnotify_put_group. Since the struct user
and inotify_devs are directly tied to this lifetime they are only
changed/updated in those two locations. We get rid of all special
casing of struct user or user->inotify_devs.

Just because we are not requeuing a request does not mean that
some aren't pending. So always issue a blk_delay_queue() if
either we are requeueing OR there's pending IO.
This fixes a boot problem for some IDE boxes.

Comparison function for list_sort() must be anticommutative,
otherwise it is not sorting in ordinary meaning.
But fortunately list_sort() always check ((*cmp)(priv, a, b) <= 0)
it not distinguish negative and zero, so comparison function can
implement only less-or-equal instead of full three-way comparison.

The current block integrity (DIF/DIX) support in DM is verifying that
all devices' integrity profiles match during DM device resume (which
is past the point of no return). To some degree that is unavoidable
(stacked DM devices force this late checking). But for most DM
devices (which aren't stacking on other DM devices) the ideal time to
verify all integrity profiles match is during table load.
Introduce the notion of an "initialized" integrity profile: a profile
that was blk_integrity_register()'d with a non-NULL 'blk_integrity'
template. Add blk_integrity_is_initialized() to allow checking if a
profile was initialized.
Update DM integrity support to:
- check all devices with _initialized_ integrity profiles match
during table load; uninitialized profiles (e.g. for underlying DM
device(s) of a stacked DM device) are ignored.
- disallow a table load that would result in an integrity profile that
conflicts with a DM device's existing (in-use) integrity profile
- avoid clearing an existing integrity profile
- validate all integrity profiles match during resume; but if they
don't all we can do is report the mismatch (during resume we're past
the point of no return)

With the ->sync_page() hook gone, we have a few users that
add their own static address_space_operations without any
functions defined.
fs/inode.c already has an empty_aops that it uses for init
purposes. Lets export that and use it in the places where
an otherwise empty aops was defined.

We see stalls if we don't always ensure that the queue gets run
again. Even if rq == NULL, we could have other pending requests
in the queue.

Merge it with __elv_add_request(), it's pretty pointless to
have a function with only two callers. The main interface
is elv_add_request()/__elv_add_request().

Currently we just dump a non-informative 'request botched' message.
Lets actually try and print something sane to help debug issues

This is a revert of 428d2e828c.
This is broken in the same manner as for VGA: trying to write to an
invalid address on the (currently 7-bit) i2c bus.
One notable failure appears to be for MacBooks. The scary part was that
it gave the appearance of working (i.e. reporting the absence of the
panel) on various all-in-one machines with ghost LVDS panels and not
failing for laptops.

This is a moral revert of 6ec3d0c0e9.
Following the fix to reset the GMBUS controller after a NAK, we finally
utilize the 0xa0 probe for a CRT connection. And discover that the code
is broken. Shock.
There are a number of issues, but following a key insight from Dave
Airlie, that 0xA0 is an invalid address on a 7-bit bus (though not if we
were to enable 10-bit addressing), and would look like the EDID port
0x50, it is possible to see where the confusion starts.
In short, a write to 0xA0 is accepted by the GMBUS controller which we
interpreted as meaning the existence of a connection (a slave on the
other end of the wire ACKing the write). That was false.
During testing with a broken GMBUS implementation, which never reset an
earlier NAK, this test always reported a NAK and so we proceeded on to
the next test.
