Dan Carpenter 09c9feb946 Documentation: make configfs example code simpler, clearer
If "p" is NULL then it will cause an oops when we pass it to
simple_strtoul().  In this case "p" can not be NULL so I removed the
check.  I also changed the check a little to make it more explicit that
we are testing whether p points to the NUL char.

Randy Dunlap 2b35f4d9ca kernel-doc: escape xml for structs
scripts/kernel-doc was leaving unescaped '<', '>', and '&' in
generated xml output for structs.  This causes xml parser errors.
Convert these characters to "&lt;", "&gt;", and "&amp;" as needed
to prevent errors.

Most of the conversion was already done; complete it just before
output.

Linus Torvalds ed1d77b18c hardirq.h: needs sched.h if using BKL
This really isn't the right thing to do, and strictly speaking we should
have the BKL depth count in the thread info right next to the preempt
count.  The two really do go together.

However, since that would involve a patch to all architectures, and the
BKL is finally going away, it's simply not worth the effort to do the
RightThing(tm).  Just re-instate the <linux/sched.h> include that we
used to get accidentally from the smp_lock.h one.

This is all fallout from the same old "BKL: remove extraneous #include
<smp_lock.h>" commit.

This appears to be due to checking the wrong permission bits in the
instruction_tlb_miss handling if the address that faulted was in vmalloc

not the user bit (_PAGE_BAP_UX/_PAGE_EXEC).

Also removed a branch level since it did not appear to be used.

Michael Neuling 1c2c25c787 powerpc: Fix call to subpage_protection()
In:
  powerpc/mm: Fix pgtable cache cleanup with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
  commit d28513bc7f
  Author: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

subpage_protection() was changed to to take an mm rather a pgdir but it
didn't change calling site in hashpage_preload().  The change wasn't
noticed at compile time since hashpage_preload() used a void* as the
parameter to subpage_protection().

This is obviously wrong and can trigger the following crash when
CONFIG_SLAB, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB, CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES
CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT are enabled.

Nishanth Aravamudan 01cf6fe855 powerpc/pseries: Don't override CONFIG_PPC_PSERIES_DEBUG
EEH and pci_dlpar #undef DEBUG, but I think they were added before the
ability to control this from Kconfig. It's really annoying to only get
some of the debug messages from these files. Leave the lpar.c #undef
alone as it produces so much output as to make the kernel unusable.
Update the Kconfig text to indicate this particular quirk :)

Linus Torvalds 7957f0a857 Fix build failure due to hwirq.h needing smp_lock.h
Arnd Bergmann did an automated scripting run to find left-over instances
of <linux/smp_lock.h>, and had made it trigger it on the normal BKL use
of lock_kernel and unlock_lernel (and apparently release_kernel_lock and
reacquire_kernel_lock too, used by the scheduler).

That resulted in commit 451a3c24b0 ("BKL: remove extraneous #include
<smp_lock.h>").

However, hardirq.h was the only remaining user of the old
'kernel_locked()' interface, and Arnd's script hadn't checked for that.
So depending on your configuration and what header files had been
included, you would get errors like "implicit declaration of function
'kernel_locked'" during the build.

The right fix is not to just re-instate the smp_lock.h include - it is
to just remove 'kernel_locked()' entirely, since the only use was this
one special low-level detail.  Just make hardirq.h do it directly.

In fact this simplifies and clarifies the code, because some trivial
analysis makes it clear that hardirq.h only ever used _one_ of the two
definitions of kernel_locked(), so we can remove the other one entirely.

Avi Kivity c8770e7ba6 KVM: VMX: Fix host userspace gsbase corruption
We now use load_gs_index() to load gs safely; unfortunately this also
changes MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE, which we managed separately.  This resulted
in confusion and breakage running 32-bit host userspace on a 64-bit kernel.

Fix by
- saving guest MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE before we we reload the host's gs
- doing the host save/load unconditionally, instead of only when in guest
  long mode

Things can be cleaned up further, but this is the minmal fix for now.

The fix from ba773f7c51

The kgdb_remove_all_hw_break() function also needs to call the
hw_break_release_slot() or else a breakpoint can get activated again
after the debugger has detached.

The kgdb test suite exposes the behavior in the form of either a hang
or repetitive failure.  The kernel config that exposes the problem
contains all of the following:

CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS=y
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS_ON_BOOT=y
