37f08be11b PM / Freezer: Remove references to TIF_FREEZE in comments
This patch removes all the references in the code about the TIF_FREEZE
flag removed by commit a3201227f8

    freezer: make freezing() test freeze conditions in effect instead of TIF_FREEZE

There still are some references to TIF_FREEZE in
Documentation/power/freezing-of-tasks.txt, but it looks like that
documentation needs more thorough work to reflect how the new
freezer works, and hence merely removing the references to TIF_FREEZE
won't really help. So I have not touched that part in this patch.

05b4877f6a PM / Hibernate: Enable usermodehelpers in hibernate() error path
If create_basic_memory_bitmaps() fails, usermodehelpers are not re-enabled
before returning. Fix this. And while at it, reword the goto labels so that
they look more meaningful.

62d3c5439c Block: use a freezable workqueue for disk-event polling
This patch (as1519) fixes a bug in the block layer's disk-events
polling.  The polling is done by a work routine queued on the
system_nrt_wq workqueue.  Since that workqueue isn't freezable, the
polling continues even in the middle of a system sleep transition.

Obviously, polling a suspended drive for media changes and such isn't
a good thing to do; in the case of USB mass-storage devices it can
lead to real problems requiring device resets and even re-enumeration.

The patch fixes things by creating a new system-wide, non-reentrant,
freezable workqueue and using it for disk-events polling.

b892e5c897 tracing: Keep NMI watchdog from triggering when dumping trace
As ftrace_dump() (called by ftrace_dump_on_oops) disables interrupts
as it dumps its output to the console, it can keep interrupts disabled
for long periods of time. This is likely to trigger the NMI watchdog,
and it can disrupt the output of critical data.

Add a touch_nmi_watchdog() to each event that is written to the screen
to keep the NMI watchdog from affecting the output.

367456c756 sched: Ditch per cgroup task lists for load-balancing
Per cgroup load-balance has numerous problems, chief amongst them that
there is no real sane order in them. So stop pretending it makes sense
and enqueue all tasks on a single list.

This also allows us to more easily fix the fwd progress issue
uncovered by the lock-break stuff. Rotate the list on failure to
migreate and limit the total iterations to nr_running (which with
releasing the lock isn't strictly accurate but close enough).

Also add a filter that skips very light tasks on the first attempt
around the list, this attempts to avoid shooting whole cgroups around
without affecting over balance.

1c4dd99bed sched/rt: Prevent idle task boosting
Idle task boosting is a nono in general. There is one
exception, when PREEMPT_RT and NOHZ is active:

The idle task calls get_next_timer_interrupt() and holds
the timer wheel base->lock on the CPU and another CPU wants
to access the timer (probably to cancel it). We can safely
ignore the boosting request, as the idle CPU runs this code
with interrupts disabled and will complete the lock
protected section without being interrupted. So there is no
real need to boost.

63b2001169 sched/wait: Add __wake_up_all_locked() API
For code which protects the waitqueue itself with another lock it
makes no sense to acquire the waitqueue lock for wakeup all. Provide
__wake_up_all_locked().

This is an optimization on the vanilla kernel (to be used by the
PCI code) and an important semantic distinction on -rt.

ba74c1448f sched/rt: Document scheduler related skip-resched-check sites
Create a distinction between scheduler related preempt_enable_no_resched()
calls and the nearly one hundred other places in the kernel that do not
want to reschedule, for one reason or another.

This distinction matters for -rt, where the scheduler and the non-scheduler
preempt models (and checks) are different. For upstream it's purely
documentational.

7abc63b1bd sched/rt: Do not throttle when PI boosting
When a runqueue has rt_runtime_us = 0 then the only way it can
accumulate rt_time is via PI boosting. That causes the runqueue
to be throttled and replenishing does not change anything due to
rt_runtime_us = 0. So avoid that situation by clearing rt_time and
skip the throttling alltogether.

42c62a589f sched/rt: Keep period timer ticking when rt throttling is active
When a runqueue is throttled we cannot disable the period timer
because that timer is the only way to undo the throttling.

We got stale throttling entries when a rq was throttled and then the
global sysctl was disabled, which stopped the timer.

8eedce9965 static keys: Inline the static_key_enabled() function
In the jump label enabled case, calling static_key_enabled()
results in a function call. The function returns the results of
a compare, so it really doesn't need the overhead of a full
function call. Let's make it 'static inline' for both the jump
label enabled and disabled cases.

bdd4431c8d Merge branch 'rcu/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu into core/rcu
The major features of this series are:

 - making RCU more aggressive about entering dyntick-idle mode in order to
   improve energy efficiency

 - converting a few more call_rcu()s to kfree_rcu()s

 - applying a number of rcutree fixes and cleanups to rcutiny

 - removing CONFIG_SMP #ifdefs from treercu

 - allowing RCU CPU stall times to be set via sysfs

 - adding CPU-stall capability to rcutorture

 - adding more RCU-abuse diagnostics

 - updating documentation

 - fixing yet more issues located by the still-ongoing top-to-bottom
   inspection of RCU, this time with a special focus on the
   CPU-hotplug code path.

30ce2f7eef perf/hwbp: Fix a possible memory leak
If kzalloc() for TYPE_DATA failed on a given cpu, previous chunk
of TYPE_INST will be leaked. Fix it.

Thanks to Peter Zijlstra for suggesting this better solution. It
should work as long as the initial value of the region is all
0's and that's the case of static (per-cpu) memory allocation.
