Roman Pen 346c09f804 workqueue: fix ghost PENDING flag while doing MQ IO 
The bug in a workqueue leads to a stalled IO request in MQ ctx->rq_list
with the following backtrace:

[  601.356164]  [<ffffffff811c59d8>] kernel_write+0x38/0x50

The underlying device is a null_blk, with default parameters:

  queue_mode    = MQ
  submit_queues = 1

Verification that nullb0 has something inflight:

root@pserver8:~# cat /sys/block/nullb0/inflight
       0        1
root@pserver8:~# find /sys/block/nullb0/mq/0/cpu* -name rq_list -print -exec cat {} \;
...
/sys/block/nullb0/mq/0/cpu2/rq_list
CTX pending:
        ffff8838038e2400
...

During debug it became clear that stalled request is always inserted in
the rq_list from the following path:

   save_stack_trace_tsk + 34
   blk_mq_insert_requests + 231
   blk_mq_flush_plug_list + 281
   blk_flush_plug_list + 199
   wait_on_page_bit + 192
   __filemap_fdatawait_range + 228
   filemap_fdatawait_range + 20
   filemap_write_and_wait_range + 63
   blkdev_fsync + 27
   vfs_fsync_range + 73
   blkdev_write_iter + 202
   __vfs_write + 170
   vfs_write + 169
   kernel_write + 56

So blk_flush_plug_list() was called with from_schedule == true.

If from_schedule is true, that means that finally blk_mq_insert_requests()
offloads execution of __blk_mq_run_hw_queue() and uses kblockd workqueue,
i.e. it calls kblockd_schedule_delayed_work_on().

That means, that we race with another CPU, which is about to execute
__blk_mq_run_hw_queue() work.

Further debugging shows the following traces from different CPUs:

  CPU#0                                  CPU#1
  ----------------------------------     -------------------------------
  reqeust A inserted
  STORE hctx->ctx_map[0] bit marked
  kblockd_schedule...() returns 1
  <schedule to kblockd workqueue>
                                         request B inserted
                                         STORE hctx->ctx_map[1] bit marked
                                         kblockd_schedule...() returns 0
  *** WORK PENDING bit is cleared ***
  flush_busy_ctxs() is executed, but
  bit 1, set by CPU#1, is not observed

As a result request B pended forever.

This behaviour can be explained by speculative LOAD of hctx->ctx_map on
CPU#0, which is reordered with clear of PENDING bit and executed _before_
actual STORE of bit 1 on CPU#1.

The proper fix is an explicit full barrier <mfence>, which guarantees
that clear of PENDING bit is to be executed before all possible
speculative LOADS or STORES inside actual work function.

Under some circumstances, the IPMI state machine could return

Linus Torvalds 1a46712aa9 Merge tag 'gpio-v4.6-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio 
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for kernel v4.6.  There is quite a
  lot of interesting stuff going on.

  The patches to other subsystems and arch-wide are ACKed as far as
  possible, though I consider things like per-arch <asm/gpio.h> as
  essentially a part of the GPIO subsystem so it should not be needed.

  Core changes:

   - The gpio_chip is now a *real device*.  Until now the gpio chips
     were just piggybacking the parent device or (gasp) floating in
     space outside of the device model.

     We now finally make GPIO chips devices.  The gpio_chip will create
     a gpio_device which contains a struct device, and this gpio_device
     struct is kept private.  Anything that needs to be kept private
     from the rest of the kernel will gradually be moved over to the
     gpio_device.

   - As a result of making the gpio_device a real device, we have added
     resource management, so devm_gpiochip_add_data() will cut down on
     overhead and reduce code lines.  A huge slew of patches convert
     almost all drivers in the subsystem to use this.

   - Building on making the GPIO a real device, we add the first step of
     a new userspace ABI: the GPIO character device.  We take small
     steps here, so we first add a pure *information* ABI and the tool
     "lsgpio" that will list all GPIO devices on the system and all
     lines on these devices.

     We can now discover GPIOs properly from userspace.  We still have
     not come up with a way to actually *use* GPIOs from userspace.

   - To encourage people to use the character device for the future, we
     have it always-enabled when using GPIO.  The old sysfs ABI is still
     opt-in (and can be used in parallel), but is marked as deprecated.

     We will keep it around for the foreseeable future, but it will not
     be extended to cover ever more use cases.

  Cleanup:

   - Bjorn Helgaas removed a whole slew of per-architecture <asm/gpio.h>
     includes.

     This dates back to when GPIO was an opt-in feature and no shared
     library even existed: just a header file with proper prototypes was
     provided and all semantics were up to the arch to implement.  These
     patches make the GPIO chip even more a proper device and cleans out
     leftovers of the old in-kernel API here and there.

     Still some cruft is left but it's very little now.

   - There is still some clamping of return values for .get() going on,
     but we now return sane values in the vast majority of drivers and
     the errorpath is sanitized.  Some patches for powerpc, blackfin and
     unicore still drop in.

   - We continue to switch the ARM, MIPS, blackfin, m68k local GPIO
     implementations to use gpiochip_add_data() and cut down on code
     lines.

   - MPC8xxx is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.

   - ATH79 is converted to use the generic GPIO helpers.

  New drivers:

   - WinSystems WS16C48

   - Acces 104-DIO-48E

   - F81866 (a F7188x variant)

   - Qoric (a MPC8xxx variant)

   - TS-4800

   - SPI serializers (pisosr): simple 74xx shift registers connected to
     SPI to obtain a dirt-cheap output-only GPIO expander.

   - Texas Instruments TPIC2810

   - Texas Instruments TPS65218

   - Texas Instruments TPS65912

   - X-Gene (ARM64) standby GPIO controller"

Linus Torvalds 588ab3f9af Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux 
Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 "Here are the main arm64 updates for 4.6.  There are some relatively
  intrusive changes to support KASLR, the reworking of the kernel
  virtual memory layout and initial page table creation.

  Summary:

   - Initial page table creation reworked to avoid breaking large block
     mappings (huge pages) into smaller ones.  The ARM architecture
     requires break-before-make in such cases to avoid TLB conflicts but
     that's not always possible on live page tables

   - Kernel virtual memory layout: the kernel image is no longer linked
     to the bottom of the linear mapping (PAGE_OFFSET) but at the bottom
     of the vmalloc space, allowing the kernel to be loaded (nearly)
     anywhere in physical RAM

   - Kernel ASLR: position independent kernel Image and modules being
     randomly mapped in the vmalloc space with the randomness is
     provided by UEFI (efi_get_random_bytes() patches merged via the
     arm64 tree, acked by Matt Fleming)

   - Implement relative exception tables for arm64, required by KASLR
     (initial code for ARCH_HAS_RELATIVE_EXTABLE added to lib/extable.c
     but actual x86 conversion to deferred to 4.7 because of the merge
     dependencies)

   - Support for the User Access Override feature of ARMv8.2: this
     allows uaccess functions (get_user etc.) to be implemented using
     LDTR/STTR instructions.  Such instructions, when run by the kernel,
     perform unprivileged accesses adding an extra level of protection.
     The set_fs() macro is used to "upgrade" such instruction to
     privileged accesses via the UAO bit

   - Half-precision floating point support (part of ARMv8.2)

   - Optimisations for CPUs with or without a hardware prefetcher (using
     run-time code patching)

   - copy_page performance improvement to deal with 128 bytes at a time

   - Sanity checks on the CPU capabilities (via CPUID) to prevent
     incompatible secondary CPUs from being brought up (e.g.  weird
     big.LITTLE configurations)

   - valid_user_regs() reworked for better sanity check of the
     sigcontext information (restored pstate information)

   - ACPI parking protocol implementation

   - CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA enabled by default

   - VDSO code marked as read-only

   - DEBUG_PAGEALLOC support

   - ARCH_HAS_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL enabled

   - Erratum workaround Cavium ThunderX SoC

   - set_pte_at() fix for PROT_NONE mappings

   - Code clean-ups"
