Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"Brazil's Independence Day pull request :-)
This is one of the biggest media pull requests, with 625 patches
affecting almost all parts of media (RC, DVB, V4L2, CEC, docs).
This contains:
- A lot of new drivers:
* DVB frontends: mxl5xx, stv0910, stv6111;
* camera flash: as3645a led driver;
* HDMI receiver: adv748X;
* camera sensor: Omnivision 6650 5M driver (ov6650);
* HDMI CEC: ao-cec meson driver;
* V4L2: Qualcom camss driver;
* Remote controller: gpio-ir-tx, pwm-ir-tx and zx-irdec drivers.
- The DDbridge DVB driver got a massive update, with makes it in sync
with modern hardware from that vendor;
- There's an important milestone on this series: the DVB
documentation was written in 2003, but only started to be updated
in 2007. It also used to contain several gaps from the time it was
kept out of tree, mentioning error codes and device nodes that
never existed upstream. On this series, it received a massive
update: all non-deprecated digital TV APIs are now in sync with the
current implementation;
- Some DVB APIs that aren't used by any upstream driver got removed;
- Other parts of the media documentation algo got updated, fixing
some bugs on its PDF output and making it compatible with Sphinx
version 1.6.
As the number of hacks required to build PDF output reduced, I hope
we'll have less troubles as newer versions of our documentation
toolchain are released (famous last words);
- As usual, lots of driver cleanups and improvements"

This patch came out of discussions in this e-mail thread:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1499357846-7481-1-git-send-email-mike.kravetz%40oracle.com
The Oracle JVM team is developing a new garbage collection model. This
new model requires multiple mappings of the same anonymous memory. One
straight forward way to accomplish this is with memfd_create. They can
use the returned fd to create multiple mappings of the same memory.
The JVM today has an option to use (static hugetlb) huge pages. If this
option is specified, they would like to use the same garbage collection
model requiring multiple mappings to the same memory. Using hugetlbfs,
it is possible to explicitly mount a filesystem and specify file paths
in order to get an fd that can be used for multiple mappings. However,
this introduces additional system admin work and coordination.
Ideally they would like to get a hugetlbfs fd without requiring explicit
mounting of a filesystem. Today, mmap and shmget can make use of
hugetlbfs without explicitly mounting a filesystem. The patch adds this
functionality to memfd_create.
Add a new flag MFD_HUGETLB to memfd_create() that will specify the file
to be created resides in the hugetlbfs filesystem. This is the generic
hugetlbfs filesystem not associated with any specific mount point. As
with other system calls that request hugetlbfs backed pages, there is
the ability to encode huge page size in the flag arguments.
hugetlbfs does not support sealing operations, therefore specifying
MFD_ALLOW_SEALING with MFD_HUGETLB will result in EINVAL.
Of course, the memfd_man page would need updating if this type of
functionality moves forward.

In some cases, userfaultfd mechanism should just deliver a SIGBUS signal
to the faulting process, instead of the page-fault event. Dealing with
page-fault event using a monitor thread can be an overhead in these
cases. For example applications like the database could use the
signaling mechanism for robustness purpose.
Database uses hugetlbfs for performance reason. Files on hugetlbfs
filesystem are created and huge pages allocated using fallocate() API.
Pages are deallocated/freed using fallocate() hole punching support.
These files are mmapped and accessed by many processes as shared memory.
The database keeps track of which offsets in the hugetlbfs file have
pages allocated.
Any access to mapped address over holes in the file, which can occur due
to bugs in the application, is considered invalid and expect the process
to simply receive a SIGBUS. However, currently when a hole in the file
is accessed via the mapped address, kernel/mm attempts to automatically
allocate a page at page fault time, resulting in implicitly filling the
hole in the file. This may not be the desired behavior for applications
like the database that want to explicitly manage page allocations of
hugetlbfs files.
Using userfaultfd mechanism with this support to get a signal, database
application can prevent pages from being allocated implicitly when
processes access mapped address over holes in the file.
This patch adds UFFD_FEATURE_SIGBUS feature to userfaultfd mechnism to
request for a SIGBUS signal.
See following for previous discussion about the database requirement
leading to this proposal as suggested by Andrea.

fixes for bad behavior, as we're mostly focusing on improving
reliablity this cycle (read: there's potentially a lot of stuff on the
horizon for 4.15 so better to spend a few weeks killing other bugs
now).
Summary:
- Write unmount record for a ro mount to avoid unnecessary log replay
- Clean up orphaned inodes when mounting fs readonly
- Resubmit inode log items when buffer writeback fails to avoid
umount hang
- Fix log recovery corruption problems when log headers wrap around
the end
- Avoid infinite loop searching for free inodes when inode counters
are wrong
- Evict inodes involved with log redo so that we don't leak them
later
- Fix a potential race between reclaim and inode cluster freeing
- Refactor the inode joining code w.r.t. transaction rolling &
deferred ops
- Fix a bug where the log doesn't properly deal with dirty buffers
that are about to become ordered buffers
- Fix the extent swap code to deal with making dirty buffers ordered
properly
- Consolidate page fault handlers
- Refactor the incore extent manipulation functions to use the iext
abstractions instead of directly modifying with extent data
- Disable crashy chattr +/-x until we fix it
- Don't allow us to set S_DAX for v2 inodes
- Various cleanups
- Clarify some documentation
- Fix a problem where fsync and a log commit race to send the disk a

loss could occur
- Simplify some rmap operations in the fcollapse code

This ioctl seems to be some attempt to support a feature
at the bt8xx dst_ca driver. Yet, as said there, it
"needs more work". Right now, the code there is just
a boilerplate.
At the end of the day, no driver uses this ioctl, nor it is
documented anywhere (except for "needs more work").
So, get rid of it.
