d28ede8379 timekeeping: Create struct tk_read_base and use it in struct timekeeper
The members of the new struct are the required ones for the new NMI
safe accessor to clcok monotonic. In order to reuse the existing
timekeeping code and to make the update of the fast NMI safe
timekeepers a simple memcpy use the struct for the timekeeper as well
and convert all users.

6d3aadf3e1 timekeeping: Restructure the timekeeper some more
Access to time requires to touch two cachelines at minimum

   1) The timekeeper data structure

   2) The clocksource data structure

The access to the clocksource data structure can be avoided as almost
all clocksource implementations ignore the argument to the read
callback, which is a pointer to the clocksource.

But the core needs to touch it to access the members @read and @mask.

So we are better off by copying the @read function pointer and the
@mask from the clocksource to the core data structure itself.

For the most used ktime_get() access all required data including the
@read and @mask copies fits together with the sequence counter into a
single 64 byte cacheline.

For the other time access functions we touch in the current code three
cache lines in the worst case. But with the clocksource data copies we
can reduce that to two adjacent cachelines, which is more efficient
than disjunct cache lines.

09ec54429c clocksource: Move cycle_last validation to core code
The only user of the cycle_last validation is the x86 TSC. In order to
provide NMI safe accessor functions for clock monotonic and
monotonic_raw we need to do that in the core.

We can't do the TSC specific

    if (now < cycle_last)
       	    now = cycle_last;

for the other wrapping around clocksources, but TSC has
CLOCKSOURCE_MASK(64) which actually does not mask out anything so if
now is less than cycle_last the subtraction will give a negative
result. So we can check for that in clocksource_delta() and return 0
for that case.

Implement and enable it for x86

3a97837784 clocksource: Make delta calculation a function
We want to move the TSC sanity check into core code to make NMI safe
accessors to clock monotonic[_raw] possible. For this we need to
sanity check the delta calculation. Create a helper function and
convert all sites to use it.

24e4a8c3e8 ktime: Kill non-scalar ktime_t implementation for 2038
The non-scalar ktime_t implementation is basically a timespec
which has to be changed to support dates past 2038 on 32bit
systems.

This patch removes the non-scalar ktime_t implementation, forcing
the scalar s64 nanosecond version on all architectures.

This may have additional performance overhead on some 32bit
systems when converting between ktime_t and timespec structures,
however the majority of 32bit systems (arm and i386) were already
using scalar ktime_t, so no performance regressions will be seen
on those platforms.

On affected platforms, I'm open to finding optimizations, including
avoiding converting to timespecs where possible.

  different issue and we can throw a coccinelle script at it ]

In my investigation, I found the root cause is wq_numa_possible_cpumask.
All entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask is allocated by
alloc_cpumask_var_node(). And these entries are used without initializing.
So these entries have wrong value.

When hot-adding and onlining CPU, wq_update_unbound_numa() is called.
wq_update_unbound_numa() calls alloc_unbound_pwq(). And alloc_unbound_pwq()
calls get_unbound_pool(). In get_unbound_pool(), worker_pool->node is set
as follow:

3592         /* if cpumask is contained inside a NUMA node, we belong to that node */
3593         if (wq_numa_enabled) {
3594                 for_each_node(node) {
3595                         if (cpumask_subset(pool->attrs->cpumask,
3596                                            wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node])) {
3597                                 pool->node = node;
3598                                 break;
3599                         }
3600                 }
3601         }

But wq_numa_possible_cpumask[node] does not have correct cpumask. So, wrong
node is selected. As a result, kernel panic occurs.

By this patch, all entries of wq_numa_possible_cpumask are allocated by
zalloc_cpumask_var_node to initialize them. And the panic disappeared.

8844aad89e genirq: Fix memory leak when calling irq_free_hwirqs()
irq_free_hwirqs() always calls irq_free_descs() with a cnt == 0
which makes it a no-op since the interrupt count to free is
decremented in itself.

 that he fixed up making it a total of 4 patches.
 
 Doing unrelated work, I found that the reading of the ftrace trace
 file disables all function tracer callbacks. This was fine when ftrace
 was the only user, but now that it's used by perf and kprobes, this
 is a bug where reading trace can disable kprobes and perf. A very unexpected
 side effect and should be fixed.

Revert commit 939f04bec1 ("printk: enable interrupts before calling
console_trylock_for_printk()").

Andreas reported:

: None of the post 3.15 kernel boot for me. They all hang at the GRUB
: screen telling me it loaded and started the kernel, but the kernel
: itself stops before it prints anything (or even replaces the GRUB
: background graphics).

939f04bec1 is modest latency reduction.  Revert it until we understand
the reason for these failures.

76bb5ab8f6 cpuset: break kernfs active protection in cpuset_write_resmask()
Writing to either "cpuset.cpus" or "cpuset.mems" file flushes
cpuset_hotplug_work so that cpu or memory hotunplug doesn't end up
migrating tasks off a cpuset after new resources are added to it.

As cpuset_hotplug_work calls into cgroup core via
cgroup_transfer_tasks(), this flushing adds the dependency to cgroup
core locking from cpuset_write_resmak().  This used to be okay because
cgroup interface files were protected by a different mutex; however,
8353da1f91 ("cgroup: remove cgroup_tree_mutex") simplified the
cgroup core locking and this dependency became a deadlock hazard -
cgroup file removal performed under cgroup core lock tries to drain
on-going file operation which is trying to flush cpuset_hotplug_work
blocked on the same cgroup core lock.

The locking simplification was done because kernfs added an a lot
easier way to deal with circular dependencies involving kernfs active
protection.  Let's use the same strategy in cpuset and break active
protection in cpuset_write_resmask().  While it isn't the prettiest,
this is a very rare, likely unique, situation which also goes away on
the unified hierarchy.

The commands to trigger the deadlock warning without the patch and the
lockdep output follow.

 localhost:/ # mount -t cgroup -o cpuset xxx /cpuset
 localhost:/ # mkdir /cpuset/tmp
 localhost:/ # echo 1 > /cpuset/tmp/cpuset.cpus
 localhost:/ # echo 0 > cpuset/tmp/cpuset.mems

099ed15167 tracing: Remove ftrace_stop/start() from reading the trace file
Disabling reading and writing to the trace file should not be able to
disable all function tracing callbacks. There's other users today
(like kprobes and perf). Reading a trace file should not stop those
from happening.

fb6bab6a5a tracing/uprobes: Fix the usage of uprobe_buffer_enable() in probe_event_enable()
The usage of uprobe_buffer_enable() added by dcad1a20 is very wrong,

1. uprobe_buffer_enable() and uprobe_buffer_disable() are not balanced,
   _enable() should be called only if !enabled.

2. If uprobe_buffer_enable() fails probe_event_enable() should clear
   tp.flags and free event_file_link.

3. If uprobe_register() fails it should do uprobe_buffer_disable().

f786106e80 tracing/uprobes: Kill the bogus UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE code in uprobe_dispatcher()
I do not know why dd9fa555d7 "tracing/uprobes: Move argument fetching
to uprobe_dispatcher()" added the UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE, but it looks
wrong.

OK, perhaps it makes sense to avoid store_trace_args() if the tracee is
nacked by uprobe_perf_filter(). But then we should kill the same code
in uprobe_perf_func() and unify the TRACE/PROFILE filtering (we need to
do this anyway to mix perf/ftrace). Until then this code actually adds
the pessimization because uprobe_perf_filter() will be called twice and
return T in likely case.
