	USB/xhci: Misc fixes for 3.8.

	Hi Greg,

	Here's six patches for xHCI and the USB core.  There's a couple of
	patches to fix xHCI 1.0 field formats, some memory leaks, dead ports,
	and USB 3.0 remote wakeup disabling.

	All of these are marked for stable.

	I know I owe you some re-works of failed stable patches from my last
	patchset round, but I don't think I'm going to get to them before I head
	off to Linux Conf Australia tomorrow.

54a3ac0c9e usb: Using correct way to clear usb3.0 device's remote wakeup feature.
Usb3.0 device defines function remote wakeup which is only for interface
recipient rather than device recipient. This is different with usb2.0 device's
remote wakeup feature which is defined for device recipient. According usb3.0
spec 9.4.5, the function remote wakeup can be modified by the SetFeature()
requests using the FUNCTION_SUSPEND feature selector. This patch is to use
correct way to disable usb3.0 device's function remote wakeup after suspend
error and resuming.

This should be backported to kernels as old as 3.4, that contain the
commit 623bef9e03 "USB/xhci: Enable remote
wakeup for USB3 devices."

ebebd49a8e 8250/16?50: Add support for Broadcom TruManage redirected serial port
Add support for the UART device present in Broadcom TruManage capable
NetXtreme chips (ie: 5761m 5762, and 5725).

This implementation has a hidden transmit FIFO, so running in single-byte
interrupt mode results in too many interrupts.  The UART_CAP_HFIFO
capability was added to track this.  It continues to reload the THR as long
as the THRE and TSRE bits are set in the LSR up to a specified limit (1024
is used here).

c0a3a20b6c linux/audit.h: move ptrace.h include to kernel header
While the kernel internals want pt_regs (and so it includes
linux/ptrace.h), the user version of audit.h does not need it.  So move
the include out of the uapi version.

This avoids issues where people want the audit defines and userland
ptrace api.  Including both the kernel ptrace and the userland ptrace
headers can easily lead to failure.

7b9205bd77 audit: create explicit AUDIT_SECCOMP event type
The seccomp path was using AUDIT_ANOM_ABEND from when seccomp mode 1
could only kill a process.  While we still want to make sure an audit
record is forced on a kill, this should use a separate record type since
seccomp mode 2 introduces other behaviors.

In the case of "handled" behaviors (process wasn't killed), only emit a
record if the process is under inspection.  This change also fixes
userspace examination of seccomp audit events, since it was considered
malformed due to missing fields of the AUDIT_ANOM_ABEND event type.

4a674f34ba ipc: introduce message queue copy feature
This patch is required for checkpoint/restore in userspace.

c/r requires some way to get all pending IPC messages without deleting
them from the queue (checkpoint can fail and in this case tasks will be
resumed, so queue have to be valid).

To achive this, new operation flag MSG_COPY for sys_msgrcv() system call
was introduced.  If this flag was specified, then mtype is interpreted as
number of the message to copy.

If MSG_COPY is set, then kernel will allocate dummy message with passed
size, and then use new copy_msg() helper function to copy desired message
(instead of unlinking it from the queue).

Notes:

1) Return -ENOSYS if MSG_COPY is specified, but
   CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is not set.

130f1b8f35 PCI: Add PCIe Link Capability link speed and width names
Add standard #defines for the Supported Link Speeds field in the PCIe
Link Capabilities register.

Note that prior to PCIe spec r3.0, these encodings were defined:

    0001b  2.5GT/s Link speed supported
    0010b  5.0GT/s and 2.5GT/s Link speed supported

Starting with spec r3.0, these encodings refer to bits 0 and 1 in the
Supported Link Speeds Vector in the Link Capabilities 2 register, and bits
0 and 1 there mean 2.5 GT/s and 5.0 GT/s, respectively.  Therefore, code
that followed r2.0 and interpreted 0x1 as 2.5GT/s and 0x2 as 5.0GT/s will
continue to work, and we can identify a device using the new encodings
because it will have a non-zero Link Capabilities 2 register.

Pull new F2FS filesystem from Jaegeuk Kim:
 "Introduce a new file system, Flash-Friendly File System (F2FS), to
  Linux 3.8.

  Highlights:
   - Add initial f2fs source codes
   - Fix an endian conversion bug
   - Fix build failures on random configs
   - Fix the power-off-recovery routine
   - Minor cleanup, coding style, and typos patches"

From the Kconfig help text:

  F2FS is based on Log-structured File System (LFS), which supports
  versatile "flash-friendly" features. The design has been focused on
  addressing the fundamental issues in LFS, which are snowball effect
  of wandering tree and high cleaning overhead.

  Since flash-based storages show different characteristics according to
  the internal geometry or flash memory management schemes aka FTL, F2FS
  and tools support various parameters not only for configuring on-disk
  layout, but also for selecting allocation and cleaning algorithms.

992fb6e170 ptrace: introduce PTRACE_O_EXITKILL
Ptrace jailers want to be sure that the tracee can never escape
from the control. However if the tracer dies unexpectedly the
tracee continues to run in potentially unsafe mode.

Add the new ptrace option PTRACE_O_EXITKILL. If the tracer exits
it sends SIGKILL to every tracee which has this bit set.

Note that the new option is not equal to the last-option << 1.  Because
currently all options have an event, and the new one starts the eventless
group.  It uses the random 20 bit, so we have the room for 12 more events,
but we can also add the new eventless options below this one.

Pull Automatic NUMA Balancing bare-bones from Mel Gorman:
 "There are three implementations for NUMA balancing, this tree
  (balancenuma), numacore which has been developed in tip/master and
  autonuma which is in aa.git.

  In almost all respects balancenuma is the dumbest of the three because
  its main impact is on the VM side with no attempt to be smart about
  scheduling.  In the interest of getting the ball rolling, it would be
  desirable to see this much merged for 3.8 with the view to building
  scheduler smarts on top and adapting the VM where required for 3.9.

  The most recent set of comparisons available from different people are

    mel:    https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/9/108
    mingo:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/7/331
    tglx:   https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/437
    srikar: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/10/397

  The results are a mixed bag.  In my own tests, balancenuma does
  reasonably well.  It's dumb as rocks and does not regress against
  mainline.  On the other hand, Ingo's tests shows that balancenuma is
  incapable of converging for this workloads driven by perf which is bad
  but is potentially explained by the lack of scheduler smarts.  Thomas'
  results show balancenuma improves on mainline but falls far short of
  numacore or autonuma.  Srikar's results indicate we all suffer on a
  large machine with imbalanced node sizes.

  My own testing showed that recent numacore results have improved
  dramatically, particularly in the last week but not universally.
  We've butted heads heavily on system CPU usage and high levels of
  migration even when it shows that overall performance is better.
  There are also cases where it regresses.  Of interest is that for
  specjbb in some configurations it will regress for lower numbers of
  warehouses and show gains for higher numbers which is not reported by
  the tool by default and sometimes missed in treports.  Recently I
  reported for numacore that the JVM was crashing with
  NullPointerExceptions but currently it's unclear what the source of
  this problem is.  Initially I thought it was in how numacore batch
  handles PTEs but I'm no longer think this is the case.  It's possible
  numacore is just able to trigger it due to higher rates of migration.

  These reports were quite late in the cycle so I/we would like to start
  with this tree as it contains much of the code we can agree on and has
  not changed significantly over the last 2-3 weeks."

This patch adds a flag to each mdb entry, so that we can distinguish
permanent entries with temporary entries.

Pull x86 EFI update from Peter Anvin:
 "EFI tree, from Matt Fleming.  Most of the patches are the new efivarfs
  filesystem by Matt Garrett & co.  The balance are support for EFI

  fixes and cleanups."

2f3238aebe module: add flags arg to sys_finit_module()
Thanks to Michael Kerrisk for keeping us honest.  These flags are actually
useful for eliminating the only case where kmod has to mangle a module's
internals: for overriding module versioning.
