- Add devm_kasprintf()/kvasprintf(), introduced by commit
75f2a4ead5 ("devres: Add
devm_kasprintf and devm_kvasprintf API"), to
Documentation/driver-model/devres.txt,
- Improve kernel doc: the string is not an existing formatted string,
but is formatted into the newly-allocated buffer,
- Add a __printf() annotation to devm_kasprintf(), so the compiler
will verify the format string argument types.

The deferred_probe_work_func() function is locally scoped, therefore an
associated kerneldoc comment isn't very useful. Replace the kerneldoc
opening marker (/**) with a regular block comment marker (/*) to avoid
the comment from being parsed by kerneldoc. This gets rid of a warning
caused by a missing description for the "work" argument.

snprintf() returns the number of bytes that could have been written
(excluding the null), not the actual number of bytes written. Given a
long enough subsystem or device name, these functions will advance
beyond the end of the on-stack buffer in dev_vprintk_exit(), resulting
in an information leak or stack corruption. I don't know whether such
a long name is currently possible.
In case snprintf() returns a value >= the buffer size, do not add
structured logging information. Also WARN if this happens, so we can
fix the driver or increase the buffer size.

Many devices run firmware and/or complex hardware, and most of that
can have bugs. When it misbehaves, however, it is often much harder
to debug than software running on the host.
Introduce a "device coredump" mechanism to allow dumping internal
device/firmware state through a generalized mechanism. As devices
are different and information needed can vary accordingly, this
doesn't prescribe a file format - it just provides mechanism to
get data to be able to capture it in a generalized way (e.g. in
distributions.)
The dumped data will be readable in sysfs in the virtual device's
data file under /sys/class/devcoredump/devcd*/. Writing to it will
free the data and remove the device, as does a 5-minute timeout.
Note that generalized capturing of such data may result in privacy
issues, so users generally need to be involved. In order to allow
certain users/system integrators/... to disable the feature at all,
introduce a Kconfig option to override the drivers that would like
to have the feature.
For now, this provides two ways of dumping data:
1) with a vmalloc'ed area, that is then given to the subsystem
and freed after retrieval or timeout
2) with a generalized reader/free function method
We could/should add more options, e.g. a list of pages, since the
vmalloc area is very limited on some architectures.

Pull vfs fixes from Al Viro:
"double iput() on failure exit in lustre, racy removal of spliced
dentries from ->s_anon in __d_materialise_dentry() plus a bunch of
assorted RCU pathwalk fixes"
The RCU pathwalk fixes end up fixing a couple of cases where we
incorrectly dropped out of RCU walking, due to incorrect initialization
and testing of the sequence locks in some corner cases. Since dropping
out of RCU walk mode forces the slow locked accesses, those corner cases
slowed down quite dramatically.
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs:
be careful with nd->inode in path_init() and follow_dotdot_rcu()
don't bugger nd->seq on set_root_rcu() from follow_dotdot_rcu()
fix bogus read_seqretry() checks introduced in b37199e
move the call of __d_drop(anon) into __d_materialise_unique(dentry, anon)
[fix] lustre: d_make_root() does iput() on dentry allocation failure
The performance regression that Josef Bacik reported in the pathname
lookup (see commit 99d263d4c5 "vfs: fix bad hashing of dentries") made
me look at performance stability of the dcache code, just to verify that
the problem was actually fixed. That turned up a few other problems in
this area.
There are a few cases where we exit RCU lookup mode and go to the slow
serializing case when we shouldn't, Al has fixed those and they'll come
in with the next VFS pull.
But my performance verification also shows that link_path_walk() turns
out to have a very unfortunate 32-bit store of the length and hash of
the name we look up, followed by a 64-bit read of the combined hash_len
field. That screws up the processor store to load forwarding, causing
an unnecessary hickup in this critical routine.
It's caused by the ugly calling convention for the "hash_name()"
function, and easily fixed by just making hash_name() fill in the whole
'struct qstr' rather than passing it a pointer to just the hash value.
With that, the profile for this function looks much smoother.

return the value instead, and have path_init() do the assignment. Broken by
"vfs: Fix absolute RCU path walk failures due to uninitialized seq number",
which was Cc-stable with 2.6.38+ as destination. This one should go where
it went.
To avoid dummy value returned in case when root is already set (it would do
no harm, actually, since the only caller that doesn't ignore the return value
is guaranteed to have nd->root *not* set, but it's more obvious that way),
lift the check into callers. And do the same to set_root(), to keep them
in sync.
