PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out. They have few users
and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue
considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work
function.
firewire core-device and sbp2 have been been multiplexing work items
with multiple work functions. Introduce fw_device_workfn() and
sbp2_lu_workfn() which invoke fw_device->workfn and
sbp2_logical_unit->workfn respectively and always use the two
functions as the work functions and update the users to set the
->workfn fields instead of overriding work functions using
PREPARE_DELAYED_WORK().
This fixes a variety of possible regressions since a2c1c57be8
"workqueue: consider work function when searching for busy work items"
due to which fw_workqueue lost its required non-reentrancy property.

When a kworker should die, the kworkre is notified through WORKER_DIE
flag instead of kthread_should_stop(). This, IIRC, is primarily to
keep the test synchronized inside worker_pool lock. WORKER_DIE is
first set while holding pool->lock, the lock is dropped and
kthread_stop() is called.
Unfortunately, this means that there's a slight chance that the target
kworker may see WORKER_DIE before kthread_stop() finishes and exits
and frees the target task before or during kthread_stop().
Fix it by pinning the target task before setting WORKER_DIE and
putting it after kthread_stop() is done.
tj: Improved patch description and comment. Moved pinning above
WORKER_DIE for better signify what it's protecting.

Tommi noticed a 'funny' lock class name: "%s#5" from a lock acquired in
process_one_work().
Maybe #fmt plus #args could be used as the lock_name to give some more
information for some fmt string like the above.
__builtin_constant_p() check is removed (as there seems no good way to
check all the variables in args list). However, by removing the check,
it only adds two additional "s for those constants.
Some lockdep name examples printed out after the change:
lockdep name wq->name
"events_long" events_long
"%s"("khelper") khelper
"xfs-data/%s"mp->m_fsname xfs-data/dm-3

Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller:
"The three major changes in this patchset is a implementation for
flexible userspace memory maps, cache-flushing fixes (again), and a
long-discussed ABI change to make EWOULDBLOCK the same value as
EAGAIN.
parisc has been the only platform where we had EWOULDBLOCK != EAGAIN
to keep HP-UX compatibility. Since we will probably never implement
full HP-UX support, we prefer to drop this compatibility to make it
easier for us with Linux userspace programs which mostly never checked
for both values. We don't expect major fall-outs because of this
change, and if we face some, we will simply rebuild the necessary
applications in the debian archives"
* 'parisc-3.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux:
parisc: add flexible mmap memory layout support
parisc: Make EWOULDBLOCK be equal to EAGAIN on parisc
parisc: convert uapi/asm/stat.h to use native types only
parisc: wire up sched_setattr and sched_getattr

parisc/sti_console: prefer Linux fonts over built-in ROM fonts
HPFS needs to load 4 consecutive 512-byte sectors when accessing the
directory nodes or bitmaps. We can't switch to 2048-byte block size
because files are allocated in the units of 512-byte sectors.
Previously, the driver would allocate a 2048-byte area using kmalloc,
copy the data from four buffers to this area and eventually copy them
back if they were modified.
In the current implementation of the buffer cache, buffers are allocated
in the pagecache. That means that 4 consecutive 512-byte buffers are
stored in consecutive areas in the kernel address space. So, we don't
need to allocate extra memory and copy the content of the buffers there.
This patch optimizes the code to avoid copying the buffers. It checks
if the four buffers are stored in contiguous memory - if they are not,
it falls back to allocating a 2048-byte area and copying data there.

Previously, hpfs scanned all bitmaps each time the user asked for free
space using statfs. This patch changes it so that hpfs scans the
bitmaps only once, remembes the free space and on next invocation of
statfs it returns the value instantly.
New versions of wine are hammering on the statfs syscall very heavily,
making some games unplayable when they're stored on hpfs, with load
times in minutes.
This should be backported to the stable kernels because it fixes
user-visible problem (excessive level load times in wine).

On Linux, only parisc uses a different value for EWOULDBLOCK which

The built-in ROM fonts lack many necessary ASCII characters, which is
why it makes sens to prefer the Linux fonts instead if they are
available. This makes consoles on STI graphics cards which are not
supported by the stifb driver (e.g. Visualize FXe) looks much nicer.

plumbs up some of the devices that now have bindings and driver

The commit dates are recent; we've mostly collected these fixes in the

out some internal conflicts which reset the timestamps. The changes
should have been tested by each platform maintainer already (and few
of them have cross-platform impact) so I'm personally not too

With commit d8d14bd09c ("fs/compat: fix lookup_dcookie() parameter

However I missed that there was still a stale declaration in
arch/tile/.. which now causes a compile error on tile:
In file included from fs/dcookies.c:28:0:
include/linux/compat.h:425:17: error: conflicting types for 'compat_sys_lookup_dcookie'
fs/dcookies.c:207:1: error: conflicting types for 'compat_sys_lookup_dcookie'
Simply remove the declaration in the tile architecture, which is only a
leftover from before the different compat lookup_dcookie() versions have
been merged. The correct declaration is now in include/linux/compat.h
The build error was reported by Fenguang's build bot.
