b7ffff4bb3 Merge branch 's3-for-3.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/amit/virtio-console
Pull virtio S3 support patches from Amit Shah:
 "Turns out S3 is not different from S4 for virtio devices: the device
  is assumed to be reset, so the host and guest state are to be assumed
  to be out of sync upon resume.  We handle the S4 case with exactly the
  same scenario, so just point the suspend/resume routines to the
  freeze/restore ones.

  Once that is done, we also use the PM API's macro to initialise the
  sleep functions.

  A couple of cleanups are included: there's no need for special thaw
  processing in the balloon driver, so that's addressed in patches 1 and
  2.

  Testing: both S3 and S4 support have been tested using these patches
  using a similar method used earlier during S4 patch development: a
  guest is started with virtio-blk as the only disk, a virtio network
  card, a virtio-serial port and a virtio balloon device.  Ping from
  guest to host, dd /dev/zero to a file on the disk, and IO from the
  host on the virtio-serial port, all at once, while exercising S4 and
  S3 (separately) were tested.  They all continue to work fine after
  resume.  virtio balloon values too were tested by inflating and
  deflating the balloon."

Pulling from Amit, since Rusty is off getting married (and presumably
shaving people).

f187e9fd68 Merge branch 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull perf updates and fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "It's mostly fixes, but there's also two late items:

   - preliminary GTK GUI support for perf report
   - PMU raw event format descriptors in sysfs, to be parsed by tooling

  The raw event format in sysfs is a new ABI.  For example for the 'CPU'
  PMU we have:

    aldebaran:~> ll /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/*
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/any
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/cmask
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/edge
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/event
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/inv
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/pc
    -r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/umask

  those lists of fields contain a specific format:

    aldebaran:~> cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp
    config1:0-63

  So, those who wish to specify raw events can now use the following
  event format:

    -e cpu/cmask=1,event=2,umask=3

  Most people will not want to specify any events (let alone raw
  events), they'll just use whatever default event the tools use.

  But for more obscure PMU events that have no cross-architecture
  generic events the above syntax is more usable and a bit more
  structured than specifying hex numbers."

9613bebb22 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs
Pull btrfs fixes and features from Chris Mason:
 "We've merged in the error handling patches from SuSE.  These are
  already shipping in the sles kernel, and they give btrfs the ability
  to abort transactions and go readonly on errors.  It involves a lot of
  churn as they clarify BUG_ONs, and remove the ones we now properly
  deal with.

  Josef reworked the way our metadata interacts with the page cache.
  page->private now points to the btrfs extent_buffer object, which
  makes everything faster.  He changed it so we write an whole extent
  buffer at a time instead of allowing individual pages to go down,,
  which will be important for the raid5/6 code (for the 3.5 merge
  window ;)

  Josef also made us more aggressive about dropping pages for metadata
  blocks that were freed due to COW.  Overall, our metadata caching is
  much faster now.

  We've integrated my patch for metadata bigger than the page size.
  This allows metadata blocks up to 64KB in size.  In practice 16K and
  32K seem to work best.  For workloads with lots of metadata, this cuts
  down the size of the extent allocation tree dramatically and fragments
  much less.

  Scrub was updated to support the larger block sizes, which ended up
  being a fairly large change (thanks Stefan Behrens).

  We also have an assortment of fixes and updates, especially to the
  balancing code (Ilya Dryomov), the back ref walker (Jan Schmidt) and
  the defragging code (Liu Bo)."

Fixed up trivial conflicts in fs/btrfs/scrub.c that were just due to
removal of the second argument to k[un]map_atomic() in commit

3a53396b03 cpuidle: add a sysfs entry to disable specific C state for debug purpose.
Some C states of new CPU might be not good.  One reason is BIOS might
configure them incorrectly.  To help developers root cause it quickly, the
patch adds a new sysfs entry, so developers could disable specific C state
manually.

In addition, C state might have much impact on performance tuning, as it
takes much time to enter/exit C states, which might delay interrupt
processing.  With the new debug option, developers could check if a deep C
state could impact performance and how much impact it could cause.

Also add this option in Documentation/cpuidle/sysfs.txt.

0090def6c3 ACPI: Add interface to register/unregister device to/from power resources
Devices may share same list of power resources in _PR0, for example

Device(Dev0)
{
	Name (_PR0, Package (0x01)
	{
		P0PR,
		P1PR
	})
}

Device(Dev1)
{
	Name (_PR0, Package (0x01)
	{
		P0PR,
		P1PR
	}
}

Assume Dev0 and Dev1 were runtime suspended.
Then Dev0 is resumed first and it goes into D0 state.
But Dev1 is left in D0_Uninitialised state.

This is wrong. In this case, Dev1 must be resumed too.

In order to hand this case, each power resource maintains a list of
devices which relies on it.

When power resource is ON, it will check if the devices on its list
can be resumed. The device can only be resumed when all the power
resouces of its _PR0 are ON.
