114067b69e perf tools: Check if callchain is corrupted
We faced segmentation fault on perf top -G at very high sampling rate
due to a corrupted callchain. While the root cause was not revealed (I
failed to figure it out), this patch tries to protect us from the
segfault on such cases.

87a5af24e5 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-edac
Pull EDAC internal API changes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "This changeset is the first part of a series of patches that fixes the
  EDAC sybsystem.  On this set, it changes the Kernel EDAC API in order
  to properly represent the Intel i3/i5/i7, Xeon 3xxx/5xxx/7xxx, and
  Intel E5-xxxx memory controllers.

  The EDAC core used to assume that:

       - the DRAM chip select pin is directly accessed by the memory
         controller

       - when multiple channels are used, they're all filled with the
         same type of memory.

  None of the above premises is true on Intel memory controllers since
  2002, when RAMBUS and FB-DIMMs were introduced, and Advanced Memory
  Buffer or by some similar technologies hides the direct access to the
  DRAM pins.

  So, the existing drivers for those chipsets had to lie to the EDAC
  core, in general telling that just one channel is filled.  That
  produces some hard to understand error messages like:

       EDAC MC0: CE row 3, channel 0, label "DIMM1": 1 Unknown error(s): memory read error on FATAL area : cpu=0 Err=0008:00c2 (ch=2), addr = 0xad1f73480 => socket=0, Channel=0(mask=2), rank=1

  The location information there (row3 channel 0) is completely bogus:
  it has no physical meaning, and are just some random values that the
  driver uses to talk with the EDAC core.  The error actually happened
  at CPU socket 0, channel 0, slot 1, but this is not reported anywhere,
  as the EDAC core doesn't know anything about the memory layout.  So,
  only advanced users that know how the EDAC driver works and that tests
  their systems to see how DIMMs are mapped can actually benefit for
  such error logs.

  This patch series fixes the error report logic, in order to allow the
  EDAC to expose the memory architecture used by them to the EDAC core.
  So, as the EDAC core now understands how the memory is organized, it
  can provide an useful report:

       EDAC MC0: CE memory read error on DIMM1 (channel:0 slot:1 page:0x364b1b offset:0x600 grain:32 syndrome:0x0 - count:1 area:DRAM err_code:0001:0090 socket:0 channel_mask:1 rank:4)

  The location of the DIMM where the error happened is reported by "MC0"
  (cpu socket #0), at "channel:0 slot:1" location, and matches the
  physical location of the DIMM.

  There are two remaining issues not covered by this patch series:

       - The EDAC sysfs API will still report bogus values.  So,
         userspace tools like edac-utils will still use the bogus data;

       - Add a new tracepoint-based way to get the binary information
         about the errors.

  Those are on a second series of patches (also at -next), but will
  probably miss the train for 3.5, due to the slow review process."

7e5b2db77b Merge branch 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus
Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
 "The whole series has been sitting in -next for quite a while with no
  complaints.  The last change to the series was before the weekend the
  removal of an SPI patch which Grant - even though previously acked by
  himself - appeared to raise objections.  So I removed it until the
  situation is clarified.  Other than that all the patches have the acks
  from their respective maintainers, all MIPS and x86 defconfigs are
  building fine and I'm not aware of any problems introduced by this
  series.

  Among the key features for this patch series is a sizable patchset for
  Lantiq which among other things introduces support for Lantiq's
  flagship product, the FALCON SOC.  It also means that the opensource
  developers behind this patchset have overtaken Lantiq's competing
  inhouse development team that was working behind closed doors.

  Less noteworthy the ath79 patchset which adds support for a few more
  chip variants, cleanups and fixes.  Finally the usual dose of tweaking
  of generic code."

Fix up trivial conflicts in arch/mips/lantiq/xway/gpio_{ebu,stp}.c where
printk spelling fixes clashed with file move and eventual removal of the
printk.

e311c92959 rtc: add ioctl to get/clear battery low voltage status
Currently there is no generic way to get the RTC battery status within an
application.  So add an ioctl to read the status bit.  The idea is that
the bit is set once a low voltage is detected.  It stays there until it is
reset using the RTC_VL_CLR ioctl.

4796dd200d vsprintf: fix %ps on non symbols when using kallsyms
Using %ps in a printk format will sometimes fail silently and print the
empty string if the address passed in does not match a symbol that
kallsyms knows about.  But using %pS will fall back to printing the full
address if kallsyms can't find the symbol.  Make %ps act the same as %pS
by falling back to printing the address.

While we're here also make %ps print the module that a symbol comes from
so that it matches what %pS already does.  Take this simple function for
example (in a module):

	static void test_printk(void)
	{
		int test;
		pr_info("with pS: %pS\n", &test);
		pr_info("with ps: %ps\n", &test);
	}

d54ad83f3d lcd: add callbacks for early fb event blank support
This patchset adds early fb blank feature that a callback of lcd panel
driver is called prior to specific fb driver's one.  In the case of
MIPI-DSI based video mode LCD Panel, for lcd power off, the power off
commands should be transferred to lcd panel with display and mipi-dsi
controller enabled because the commands is set to lcd panel at vsync porch
period.  and in opposite case, the callback of fb driver should be called
prior to lcd panel driver's one because of same issue.  Also if fb_blank
mode is changed to FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN then display controller would be
off(clock disable) but lcd panel would be still on.  at this time, you
could see some issue like sparkling on lcd panel because video clock to be
delivered to ldi module of lcd panel was disabled.  this issue could
occurs for all lcd panels.

The callback order is as the following:

at fb_blank function of fbmem.c
-> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK)
       -> lcd panel driver's early_set_power()
-> info->fbops->fb_blank()
       -> spcefic fb driver's fb_blank()
-> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_BLANK)
       -> lcd panel driver's set_power()
   -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) if
info->fops->fb_blank() was failed.

fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) would be called to revert
the effects of previous FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK call.  and note that if
early_set_power() of lcd_ops is NULL then early fb blank callback would be
ignored.

This patch:

Add early_set_power and r_early_set_power callbacks.  early_set_power
callback is called prior to fb_blank() of fbmem.c and r_early_set_power
callback is called if fb_blank() was failed to revert the effects of the
early_set_power call of lcd panel driver.

fa9add641b mm/memcg: apply add/del_page to lruvec
Take lruvec further: pass it instead of zone to add_page_to_lru_list() and
del_page_from_lru_list(); and pagevec_lru_move_fn() pass lruvec down to
its target functions.

This cleanup eliminates a swathe of cruft in memcontrol.c, including
mem_cgroup_lru_add_list(), mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() and
mem_cgroup_lru_move_lists() - which never actually touched the lists.

In their place, mem_cgroup_page_lruvec() to decide the lruvec, previously
a side-effect of add, and mem_cgroup_update_lru_size() to maintain the
lru_size stats.

Whilst these are simplifications in their own right, the goal is to bring
the evaluation of lruvec next to the spin_locking of the lrus, in
preparation for a future patch.

memcg is disabled but per-memcg per-zone when it's enabled.

We can delete mem_cgroup_get_reclaim_stat(), and change
update_page_reclaim_stat() to update just the one set of stats, the one
which get_scan_count() will actually use.

4b91355e9d memcg: fix/change behavior of shared anon at moving task
This patch changes memcg's behavior at task_move().

At task_move(), the kernel scans a task's page table and move the changes
for mapped pages from source cgroup to target cgroup.  There has been a
bug at handling shared anonymous pages for a long time.

Before patch:
  - The spec says 'shared anonymous pages are not moved.'
  - The implementation was 'shared anonymoys pages may be moved'.
    If page_mapcount <=2, shared anonymous pages's charge were moved.

After patch:
  - The spec says 'all anonymous pages are moved'.
  - The implementation is 'all anonymous pages are moved'.

Considering usage of memcg, this will not affect user's experience.
'shared anonymous' pages only exists between a tree of processes which
don't do exec().  Moving one of process without exec() seems not sane.
For example, libcgroup will not be affected by this change.  (Anyway, no
one noticed the implementation for a long time...)

Below is a discussion log:

 - current spec/implementation are complex
 - Now, shared file caches are moved
 - It adds unclear check as page_mapcount(). To do correct check,
   we should check swap users, etc.
 - No one notice this implementation behavior. So, no one get benefit
   from the design.
 - In general, once task is moved to a cgroup for running, it will not
   be moved....
 - Finally, we have control knob as memory.move_charge_at_immigrate.

Here is a patch to allow moving shared pages, completely. This makes
memcg simpler and fix current broken code.

5bf5f03c27 mm: fix slab->page flags corruption
Transparent huge pages can change page->flags (PG_compound_lock) without
taking Slab lock.  Since THP can not break slab pages we can safely access
compound page without taking compound lock.

Specifically this patch fixes a race between compound_unlock() and slab
functions which perform page-flags updates.  This can occur when
get_page()/put_page() is called on a page from slab.

a7f638f999 mm, oom: normalize oom scores to oom_score_adj scale only for userspace
The oom_score_adj scale ranges from -1000 to 1000 and represents the
proportion of memory available to the process at allocation time.  This
means an oom_score_adj value of 300, for example, will bias a process as
though it was using an extra 30.0% of available memory and a value of
-350 will discount 35.0% of available memory from its usage.

The oom killer badness heuristic also uses this scale to report the oom
score for each eligible process in determining the "best" process to
kill.  Thus, it can only differentiate each process's memory usage by
0.1% of system RAM.

On large systems, this can end up being a large amount of memory: 256MB
on 256GB systems, for example.

This can be fixed by having the badness heuristic to use the actual
memory usage in scoring threads and then normalizing it to the
oom_score_adj scale for userspace.  This results in better comparison
between eligible threads for kill and no change from the userspace
perspective.
