While it looks like the first WARN() is probably valid, the other one is
triggered by disabling event via perf_event_disable() from atomic context.
The event is disabled here in case we were not able to emulate
the instruction that hit the breakpoint. By disabling the event
we unschedule the event and make sure it's not scheduled back.
But we can't call perf_event_disable() from atomic context, instead
we need to use the event's pending_disable irq_work method to disable it.

The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the
page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt
normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up
breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object:
wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)
where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the
stack of fill_super().
The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is
no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical
page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()).
It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the
per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup
also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone
lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates
horrible code.
As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for
the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a
separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at
for the normal case.
Peter Zijlstra already has a patch for that, but let's see if anybody
even notices. In the meantime, let's fix the actual gfs2 breakage by
simplifying the bitlock waitqueues and removing the per-zone issue.

When a timer is enqueued we try to forward the timer base clock. This
mechanism has two issues:
1) Forwarding a remote base unlocked
The forwarding function is called from get_target_base() with the current
timer base lock held. But if the new target base is a different base than
the current base (can happen with NOHZ, sigh!) then the forwarding is done
on an unlocked base. This can lead to corruption of base->clk.
Solution is simple: Invoke the forwarding after the target base is locked.
2) Possible corruption due to jiffies advancing
This is similar to the issue in get_net_timer_interrupt() which was fixed
in the previous patch. jiffies can advance between check and assignement
and therefore advancing base->clk beyond the next expiry value.
So we need to read jiffies into a local variable once and do the checks and
assignment with the local copy.

Ashton and Michael reported, that kernel versions 4.8 and later suffer from
USB timeouts which are caused by the timer wheel rework.
This is caused by a bug in the base clock forwarding mechanism, which leads
to timers expiring early. The scenario which leads to this is:
run_timers()
while (jiffies >= base->clk) {
collect_expired_timers();
base->clk++;
expire_timers();
}
So base->clk = jiffies + 1. Now the cpu goes idle:
idle()
get_next_timer_interrupt()
nextevt = __next_time_interrupt();
if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk))
base->clk = jiffies;
jiffies has not advanced since run_timers(), so this assignment effectively
decrements base->clk by one.
base->clk is the index into the timer wheel arrays. So let's assume the
following state after the base->clk increment in run_timers():
jiffies = 0
base->clk = 1
A timer gets enqueued with an expiry delta of 63 ticks (which is the case
with the USB timeout and HZ=250) so the resulting bucket index is:
base->clk + delta = 1 + 63 = 64
The timer goes into the first wheel level. The array size is 64 so it ends
up in bucket 0, which is correct as it takes 63 ticks to advance base->clk
to index into bucket 0 again.
If the cpu goes idle before jiffies advance, then the bug in the forwarding
mechanism sets base->clk back to 0, so the next invocation of run_timers()
at the next tick will index into bucket 0 and therefore expire the timer 62
ticks too early.
Instead of blindly setting base->clk to jiffies we must make the forwarding
conditional on jiffies > base->clk, but we cannot use jiffies for this as
we might run into the following issue:
if (time_after(jiffies, base->clk) {
if (time_after(nextevt, base->clk))
base->clk = jiffies;
jiffies can increment between the check and the assigment far enough to
advance beyond nextevt. So we need to use a stable value for checking.
get_next_timer_interrupt() has the basej argument which is the jiffies
value snapshot taken in the calling code. So we can just that.
Thanks to Ashton for bisecting and providing trace data!

Linus stumbled over the unlocked modification of the timer expiry value in
mod_timer() which is an optimization for timers which stay in the same
bucket - due to the bucket granularity - despite their expiry time getting
updated.
The optimization itself still makes sense even if we take the lock, because
in case that the bucket stays the same, we avoid the pointless
queue/enqueue dance.
Make the check and the modification of timer->expires protected by the base
lock and shuffle the remaining code around so we can keep the lock held
when we actually have to requeue the timer to a different bucket.

Commit 4bcc595ccd (printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing

messages shown on entering suspend. With v4.9-rc1, the 'done.' shown
after syncing the filesystems no longer appears as a continuation but
a new message with its own timestamp.

Fix this by adding the KERN_CONT log level for the 'done.' part of the

these suspend printks to pr_info and pr_cont, respectively.

We have a fairly common pattern where you print several things as
continuations on one single line in a loop, and then at the end you do
printk(KERN_CONT "\n");
to flush the buffered output.
But if the output was flushed by something else (concurrent printk
activity, or just system logging), we don't want that final flushing to
just print an empty line.
So just suppress empty continuation lines when they couldn't be merged
into the line they are a continuation of.

Merge the gup_flags cleanups from Lorenzo Stoakes:
"This patch series adjusts functions in the get_user_pages* family such
that desired FOLL_* flags are passed as an argument rather than
implied by flags.
The purpose of this change is to make the use of FOLL_FORCE explicit
so it is easier to grep for and clearer to callers that this flag is
being used. The use of FOLL_FORCE is an issue as it overrides missing
VM_READ/VM_WRITE flags for the VMA whose pages we are reading
from/writing to, which can result in surprising behaviour.
The patch series came out of the discussion around commit 38e0885465
("mm: check VMA flags to avoid invalid PROT_NONE NUMA balancing"),
which addressed a BUG_ON() being triggered when a page was faulted in
with PROT_NONE set but having been overridden by FOLL_FORCE.
do_numa_page() was run on the assumption the page _must_ be one marked
for NUMA node migration as an actual PROT_NONE page would have been
dealt with prior to this code path, however FOLL_FORCE introduced a
situation where this assumption did not hold.
See
https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147585445805166
for the patch proposal"
Additionally, there's a fix for an ancient bug related to FOLL_FORCE and
