The swapaccount kernel parameter without any values has been removed by
commit a2c8990aed ("memsw: remove noswapaccount kernel parameter") but
it seems that we didn't get rid of all the left overs.
Make sure that menuconfig help text and kernel-parameters.txt are clear
about value for the paramter and remove the stalled comment which is not
very much useful on its own.

Fix the issue with improper counting number of flying bio requests for
BIO_EOPNOTSUPP error detection case.
The sb_nbio must be incremented exactly the same number of times as
complete() function was called (or will be called) because
nilfs_segbuf_wait() will call wail_for_completion() for the number of
times set to sb_nbio:
do {
wait_for_completion(&segbuf->sb_bio_event);
} while (--segbuf->sb_nbio > 0);
Two functions complete() and wait_for_completion() must be called the
same number of times for the same sb_bio_event. Otherwise,
wait_for_completion() will hang or leak.

Being a low-level component, various drivers (e.g. olpc-battery) assume
that it is ok to communicate with the OLPC Embedded Controller during
probe. Therefore the OLPC EC driver must be initialised before other
drivers try to use it. This was the case until it was recently moved
out of arch/x86 and restructured around commits ac2504151f ("Platform:
OLPC: turn EC driver into a platform_driver") and 85f90cf6ca ("x86:
OLPC: switch over to using new EC driver on x86").
Use arch_initcall so that olpc-ec is readied earlier, matching the
previous behaviour.
Fixes a regression introduced in Linux-3.6 where various drivers such as
olpc-battery and olpc-xo1-sci failed to load due to an inability to
communicate with the EC. The user-visible effect was a lack of battery
monitoring, missing ebook/lid switch input devices, etc.

In the previous commit, Richard Genoud fixed proc_root_readdir(), which
had lost the check for whether all of the non-process /proc entries had
been returned or not.
But that in turn exposed _another_ bug, namely that the original readdir
conversion patch had yet another problem: it had lost the return value
of proc_readdir_de(), so now checking whether it had completed
successfully or not didn't actually work right anyway.
This reinstates the non-zero return for the "end of base entries" that
had also gotten lost in commit f0c3b5093a ("[readdir] convert
procfs"). So now you get all the base entries *and* you get all the
process entries, regardless of getdents buffer size.
(Side note: the Linux "getdents" manual page actually has a nice example
application for testing getdents, which can be easily modified to use
different buffers. Who knew? Man-pages can be useful)

Commit f0c3b5093a ("[readdir] convert procfs") introduced a bug on the
listing of the proc file-system. The return value of proc_readdir()
isn't tested anymore in the proc_root_readdir function.
This lead to an "interesting" behaviour when we are using the getdents()
system call with a buffer too small: instead of failing, it returns the
first entries of /proc (enough to fill the given buffer), plus the PID
directories.
This is not triggered on glibc (as getdents is called with a 32KB
buffer), but on uclibc, the buffer size is only 1KB, thus some proc
entries are missing.
See https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/12/288 for more background.

When run during fsync, a gfs2_log_flush could happen between the
time when gfs2_ail_flush checked the number of blocks to revoke,
and when it actually started the transaction to do those revokes.
This occassionally caused it to need more revokes than it reserved,
causing gfs2 to crash.
Instead of just reserving enough revokes to handle the blocks that
currently need them, this patch makes gfs2_ail_flush reserve the
maximum number of revokes it can, without increasing the total number
of reserved log blocks. This patch also passes the number of reserved
revokes to __gfs2_ail_flush() so that it doesn't go over its limit
and cause a crash like we're seeing. Non-fsync calls to __gfs2_ail_flush
will still cause a BUG() necessary revokes are skipped.

This fixes a WARN in i915_gem_free_object when the
obj->pages_pin_count isn't 0.
v2: Add locking to unmap, noticed by Chris Wilson. Note that even
though we call unmap with our own dev->struct_mutex held that won't
result in an immediate deadlock since we never go through the dma_buf
interfaces for our own, reimported buffers. But it's still easy to
blow up and anger lockdep, but that's already the case with our ->map
implementation. Fixing this for real will involve per dma-buf ww mutex
locking by the callers. And lots of fun. So go with the duct-tape
approach for now.
