1a3aedbce4 Audit: audit watch init should not be before fsnotify init
Audit watch init and fsnotify init both use subsys_initcall() but since the
audit watch code is linked in before the fsnotify code the audit watch code
would be using the fsnotify srcu struct before it was initialized.  This
patch fixes that problem by moving audit watch init to device_initcall() so
it happens after fsnotify is ready.

939a67fc4c Audit: split audit watch Kconfig
Audit watch should depend on CONFIG_AUDIT_SYSCALL and should select
FSNOTIFY.  This splits the spagetti like mixing of audit_watch and
audit_filter code so they can be configured seperately.

40554c3dae fsnotify: allow addition of duplicate fsnotify marks
This patch allows a task to add a second fsnotify mark to an inode for the
same group.  This mark will be added to the end of the inode's list and
this will never be found by the stand fsnotify_find_mark() function.   This
is useful if a user wants to add a new mark before removing the old one.

a05fb6cc57 audit: do not get and put just to free a watch
deleting audit watch rules is not currently done under audit_filter_mutex.
It was done this way because we could not hold the mutex during inotify
manipulation.  Since we are using fsnotify we don't need to do the extra
get/put pair nor do we need the private list on which to store the parents
while they are about to be freed.

e118e9c563 audit: redo audit watch locking and refcnt in light of fsnotify
fsnotify can handle mutexes to be held across all fsnotify operations since
it deals strickly in spinlocks.  This can simplify and reduce some of the
audit_filter_mutex taking and dropping.

e9fd702a58 audit: convert audit watches to use fsnotify instead of inotify
Audit currently uses inotify to pin inodes in core and to detect when
watched inodes are deleted or unmounted.  This patch uses fsnotify instead

b82bab4bbe dynamic debug: move ddebug_remove_module() down into free_module()
The command

	echo "file ec.c +p" >/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

Move the call to ddebug_remove_module() down into free_module().  In this
way it should be called from all error paths.  Currently, we are missing
the remove if the module init routine fails.

e120153ddf workqueue: fix how cpu number is stored in work->data
Once a work starts execution, its data contains the cpu number it was
on instead of pointing to cwq.  This is added by commit 7a22ad75
(workqueue: carry cpu number in work data once execution starts) to
reliably determine the work was last on even if the workqueue itself
was destroyed inbetween.

Whether data points to a cwq or contains a cpu number was
distinguished by comparing the value against PAGE_OFFSET.  The
assumption was that a cpu number should be below PAGE_OFFSET while a
pointer to cwq should be above it.  However, on architectures which
use separate address spaces for user and kernel spaces, this doesn't
hold as PAGE_OFFSET is zero.

Fix it by using an explicit flag, WORK_STRUCT_CWQ, to mark what the
data field contains.  If the flag is set, it's pointing to a cwq;
otherwise, it contains a cpu number.

Reported on s390 and microblaze during linux-next testing.
