smq seems to be performing better than the old mq policy in all
situations, as well as using a quarter of the memory.
Make 'mq' an alias for 'smq' when choosing a cache policy. The tunables
that were present for the old mq are faked, and have no effect. mq
should be considered deprecated now.

The arm,gic-v3 binding was written with good intentions and doesn't
enforce interrupt-cells to be 3, therefore making it easy to extend
the irq description in future if necessary:
> Cells 4 and beyond are reserved for future use.
Unfortunately, this sentence is immediately followed up with:
> When the 1st cell has a value of 0 or 1, cells 4 and beyond act as
> padding, and may be ignored. It is recommended that padding cells
> have a value of 0.
Consequently, any extensions to the PPI or SPI interrupt specifiers must
be able to work with random crap from legacy DTs, effectively
necessitating a new interrupt type in the first cell. Sigh.
This patch fixes the text so that additional, reserved cells are
required to be zero. This looks like a reasonable thing to require and
is already satisifed by the .dts files in-tree.

"rm -rf" is bricking some peoples' laptops because of variables being
used to store non-reinitializable firmware driver data that's required
to POST the hardware.
These are 100% bugs, and they need to be fixed, but in the mean time it
shouldn't be easy to *accidentally* brick machines.
We have to have delete working, and picking which variables do and don't
work for deletion is quite intractable, so instead make everything
immutable by default (except for a whitelist), and make tools that
aren't quite so broad-spectrum unset the immutable flag.

Workqueue used to guarantee local execution for work items queued
without explicit target CPU. The guarantee is gone now which can
break some usages in subtle ways. To flush out those cases, this
patch implements a debug feature which forces round-robin CPU
selection for all such work items.
The debug feature defaults to off and can be enabled with a kernel
parameter. The default can be flipped with a debug config option.

This patch provides a way of working around a slight regression
introduced by commit 8463833590 ("mm: rework virtual memory
accounting").
Before that commit RLIMIT_DATA have control only over size of the brk
region. But that change have caused problems with all existing versions
of valgrind, because it set RLIMIT_DATA to zero.
This patch fixes rlimit check (limit actually in bytes, not pages) and
by default turns it into warning which prints at first VmData misuse:
"mmap: top (795): VmData 516096 exceed data ulimit 512000. Will be forbidden soon."
Behavior is controlled by boot param ignore_rlimit_data=y/n and by sysfs
/sys/module/kernel/parameters/ignore_rlimit_data. For now it set to "y".

Commit b76437579d ("procfs: mark thread stack correctly in
proc/<pid>/maps") added [stack:TID] annotation to /proc/<pid>/maps.
Finding the task of a stack VMA requires walking the entire thread list,
turning this into quadratic behavior: a thousand threads means a
thousand stacks, so the rendering of /proc/<pid>/maps needs to look at a
million combinations.
The cost is not in proportion to the usefulness as described in the
patch.
Drop the [stack:TID] annotation to make /proc/<pid>/maps (and
/proc/<pid>/numa_maps) usable again for higher thread counts.
The [stack] annotation inside /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps is retained, as
identifying the stack VMA there is an O(1) operation.
Siddesh said:
"The end users needed a way to identify thread stacks programmatically and
there wasn't a way to do that. I'm afraid I no longer remember (or have
access to the resources that would aid my memory since I changed
employers) the details of their requirement. However, I did do this on my
own time because I thought it was an interesting project for me and nobody
really gave any feedback then as to its utility, so as far as I am
concerned you could roll back the main thread maps information since the
information is available in the thread-specific files"
