sigsuspend() is nowhere used except in signal.c itself, so we can mark it
static do not pollute the global namespace.
But this patch is more than a boring cleanup patch, it fixes a real issue
on UserModeLinux. UML has a special console driver to display ttys using
xterm, or other terminal emulators, on the host side. Vegard reported
that sometimes UML is unable to spawn a xterm and he's facing the
following warning:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 908 at include/linux/thread_info.h:128 sigsuspend+0xab/0xc0()
It turned out that this warning makes absolutely no sense as the UML
xterm code calls sigsuspend() on the host side, at least it tries. But
as the kernel itself offers a sigsuspend() symbol the linker choose this
one instead of the glibc wrapper. Interestingly this code used to work
since ever but always blocked signals on the wrong side. Some recent
kernel change made the WARN_ON() trigger and uncovered the bug.
It is a wonderful example of how much works by chance on computers. :-)

kasan_module_alloc() allocates shadow memory for module and frees it on
module unloading. It doesn't store the pointer to allocated shadow memory
because it could be calculated from the shadowed address, i.e.
kasan_mem_to_shadow(addr).
Since kmemleak cannot find pointer to allocated shadow, it thinks that
memory leaked.
Use kmemleak_ignore() to tell kmemleak that this is not a leak and shadow
memory doesn't contain any pointers.

For the root directory, . and .. are faked (using dir_emit_dots()) and
ctx->pos is reset from 2 to 0.
A corrupted root directory could cause fat_get_entry() to fail, but
->iterate() (fat_readdir()) reports progress to the VFS (with ctx->pos
rewound to 0), so any following calls to ->iterate() continue to return
the same entries again and again.
The result is that userspace will never see the end of the directory,
causing e.g. 'ls' to hang in a getdents() loop.

Hugh Dickins pointed out problems with the new hugetlbfs fallocate hole
punch code. These problems are in the routine remove_inode_hugepages and
mostly occur in the case where there are holes in the range of pages to be
removed. These holes could be the result of a previous hole punch or
simply sparse allocation. The current code could access pages outside the
specified range.
remove_inode_hugepages handles both hole punch and truncate operations.
Page index handling was fixed/cleaned up so that the loop index always
matches the page being processed. The code now only makes a single pass
through the range of pages as it was determined page faults could not race
with truncate. A cond_resched() was added after removing up to
PAGEVEC_SIZE pages.
Some totally unnecessary code in hugetlbfs_fallocate() that remained from
early development was also removed.
Tested with fallocate tests submitted here:
http://librelist.com/browser//libhugetlbfs/2015/6/25/patch-tests-add-tests-for-fallocate-system-call/
And, some ftruncate tests under development

When building kernel with gcc 5.2, the below warning is raised:
mm/page-writeback.c: In function 'balance_dirty_pages.isra.10':
mm/page-writeback.c:1545:17: warning: 'm_dirty' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
unsigned long m_dirty, m_thresh, m_bg_thresh;
The m_dirty{thresh, bg_thresh} are initialized in the block of "if
(mdtc)", so if mdts is null, they won't be initialized before being used.
Initialize m_dirty to zero, also initialize m_thresh and m_bg_thresh to
keep consistency.
They are used later by if condition: !mdtc || m_dirty <=
dirty_freerun_ceiling(m_thresh, m_bg_thresh)
If mdtc is null, dirty_freerun_ceiling will not be called at all, so the
initialization will not change any behavior other than just ceasing the
compile warning.

MADV_NOHUGEPAGE processing is too restrictive. kvm already disables
hugepage but hugepage_madvise() takes the error path when we ask to turn
on the MADV_NOHUGEPAGE bit and the bit is already on. This causes Qemu's
new postcopy migration feature to fail on s390 because its first action is
to madvise the guest address space as NOHUGEPAGE. This patch modifies the
code so that the operation succeeds without error now.
For consistency reasons do the same for MADV_HUGEPAGE.

This patchset introduces IIO software triggers, offers a way of configuring
them via configfs and adds the IIO hrtimer based interrupt source to be used
with software triggers.
The architecture is now split in 3 parts, to remove all IIO trigger specific
parts from IIO configfs core:
(1) IIO configfs - creates the root of the IIO configfs subsys.
(2) IIO software triggers - software trigger implementation, dynamically
creating /config/iio/triggers group.
(3) IIO hrtimer trigger - is the first interrupt source for software triggers
(with syfs to follow). Each trigger type can implement its own set of
attributes.
Lockdep seems to be happy with the locking in configfs patch.
This patch (of 5):
We don't want to hardcode default groups at subsystem
creation time. We export:
* configfs_register_group
* configfs_unregister_group
to allow drivers to programatically create/destroy groups
later, after module init time.
This is needed for IIO configfs support.

The various allocators return aligned memory. Telling the compiler that
allows it to generate better code in many cases, for example when the
return value is immediately passed to memset().
Some code does become larger, but at least we win twice as much as we lose:
$ scripts/bloat-o-meter /tmp/vmlinux vmlinux
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 13/52 up/down: 995/-2140 (-1145)
An example of the different (and smaller) code can be seen in mm_alloc(). Before:
: 48 8d 78 08 lea 0x8(%rax),%rdi
: 48 89 c1 mov %rax,%rcx
: 48 89 c2 mov %rax,%rdx
: 48 c7 00 00 00 00 00 movq $0x0,(%rax)
: 48 c7 80 48 03 00 00 movq $0x0,0x348(%rax)
: 00 00 00 00
: 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax
: 48 83 e7 f8 and $0xfffffffffffffff8,%rdi
: 48 29 f9 sub %rdi,%rcx
: 81 c1 50 03 00 00 add $0x350,%ecx
: c1 e9 03 shr $0x3,%ecx
: f3 48 ab rep stos %rax,%es:(%rdi)
After:
: 48 89 c2 mov %rax,%rdx
: b9 6a 00 00 00 mov $0x6a,%ecx
: 31 c0 xor %eax,%eax
: 48 89 d7 mov %rdx,%rdi
: f3 48 ab rep stos %rax,%es:(%rdi)
So gcc's strategy is to do two possibly (but not really, of course)
unaligned stores to the first and last word, then do an aligned rep stos
covering the middle part with a little overlap. Maybe arches which do not
allow unaligned stores gain even more.
I don't know if gcc can actually make use of alignments greater than 8 for
anything, so one could probably drop the __assume_xyz_alignment macros and
just use __assume_aligned(8).
The increases in code size are mostly caused by gcc deciding to
opencode strlen() using the check-four-bytes-at-a-time trick when it
knows the buffer is sufficiently aligned (one function grew by 200
bytes). Now it turns out that many of these strlen() calls showing up
were in fact redundant, and they're gone from -next. Applying the two
patches to next-20151001 bloat-o-meter instead says
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 6/52 up/down: 244/-2140 (-1896)
