Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These fix one recent cpufreq regression, a few older bugs that may harm users and a kerneldoc typo. Specifics: 1) After the recent locking changes in the cpufreq core it is possible to trigger BUG_ON(!policy) in lock_policy_rwsem_read() if cpufreq_get() is called before registering a cpufreq driver. Fix from Viresh Kumar. 2) If intel_pstate has been loaded already, it doesn't make sense to do anything in acpi_cpufreq_init() and moreover doing something in there in that case may be harmful, so make that function return immediately if another cpufreq driver is already present. From Yinghai Lu. 3) The ACPI IPMI driver sometimes attempts to acquire a mutex from interrupt context, which can be avoided by replacing that mutex with a spinlock. From Lv Zheng. 4) A NULL pointer may be dereferenced by the exynos5440 cpufreq driver if a memory allocation made by it fails. Fix from Sachin Kamat. 5) Hanjun Guo's commit fixes a typo in the kerneldoc comment documenting acpi_bus_unregister_driver()" * tag 'pm+acpi-3.12-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: ACPI / scan: fix typo in comments of acpi_bus_unregister_driver() cpufreq: exynos5440: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference cpufreq: check cpufreq driver is valid and cpufreq isn't disabled in cpufreq_get() acpi-cpufreq: skip loading acpi_cpufreq after intel_pstate ACPI / IPMI: Fix atomic context requirement of ipmi_msg_handler()

Yinghai Lu authored
Ben Herrenschmidt found that commit 928bea96 ("PCI: Delay enabling bridges until they're needed") breaks PCI in some powerpc environments. The reason is that the PCIe port driver will call pci_enable_device() on the bridge, so the device is enabled, but skips pci_set_master because pcie_port_auto and no acpi on powerpc. Because of that, pci_enable_bridge() later on (called as a result of the child device driver doing pci_enable_device) will see the bridge as already enabled and will not call pci_set_master() on it. Fixed by add checking in pci_enable_bridge, and call pci_set_master if driver skip that. That will make the code more robot and wade off problem for missing pci_set_master in drivers.

Pull s390 lockref enablement from Heiko Carstens: "Enabling the new lockless lockref variant on s390 would have been trivial until Tony Luck added a cpu_relax() call into the CMPXCHG_LOOP(), with commit d472d9d9 ("lockref: Relax in cmpxchg loop") As already mentioned cpu_relax() is very expensive on s390 since it yields() the current virtual cpu. So we are talking of several thousand cycles. Considering this enabling the lockless lockref variant would contradict the intention of the new semantics. And also some quick measurements show performance regressions of 50% and more. Simply removing the cpu_relax() call again seems also not very desireable since Waiman Long reported that for some workloads the call improved performance by 5%." * 'lockref' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/s390/linux: s390: enable ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF lockref: use arch_mutex_cpu_relax() in CMPXCHG_LOOP() mutex: replace CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX with simple ifdef

Make use of arch_mutex_cpu_relax() so architectures can override the default cpu_relax() semantics. This is especially useful for s390, where cpu_relax() means that we yield() the current (virtual) cpu and therefore is very expensive, and would contradict the whole purpose of the lockless cmpxchg loop.

Linus suggested to replace #ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX #define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax() #endif with just a simple #ifndef arch_mutex_cpu_relax # define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax() #endif to get rid of CONFIG_HAVE_CPU_RELAX_SIMPLE. So architectures can simply define arch_mutex_cpu_relax if they want an architecture specific function instead of having to add a select statement in their Kconfig in addition.

The test is only for a single kobj_ns_type at a time, and unless there is a reason to prevent it the mounting sysfs should be allowed. Subsystems that are not registered can't have are not involved so can't have a reason to prevent mounting sysfs.

Will Deacon authored
The 64-bit cmpxchg operation on the lockref is ordered by virtue of hazarding between the cmpxchg operation and the reference count manipulation. On weakly ordered memory architectures (such as ARM), it can be of great benefit to omit the barrier instructions where they are not needed. This patch moves the lockless lockref code over to a cmpxchg64_relaxed operation, which doesn't provide barrier semantics. If the operation isn't defined, we simply #define it as the usual 64-bit cmpxchg macro.

Chew, Chiau Ee authored
According to Designware I2C spec, if I2C_DYNAMIC_TAR_UPDATE is set to 1, the 10-bit addressing mode is controlled by IC_10BITADDR_MASTER bit of IC_TAR register instead of IC_CON register. The IC_10BITADDR_MASTER in IC_CON register becomes read-only copy. Since I2C_DYNAMIC_TAR_UPDATE value can't be detected from hardware register, so we will always set the IC_10BITADDR_MASTER bit in both IC_CON and IC_TAR register whenever 10-bit addresing mode is requested by user application.

BIOS can mark a pin as "no physical connection" if the port is used by an integrated display which is not audio capable. And audio driver will overlook such pins. On Haswell, such a disconneted pin will keep muted and connected to the 1st converter by default. But if the 1st convertor is assigned to a connected pin for audio streaming. The muted disconnected pin can make the connected pin no sound output. So this patch avoids using assigned converters for all unused pins for Haswell, including the disconected pins.

Pull powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt: "Here are a few things for -rc2, this time it's all written by me so it can only be perfect .... right ? :) So we have the fix to call irq_enter/exit on the irq stack we've been discussing, plus a cleanup on top to remove an unused (and broken) stack limit tracking feature (well, make it 32-bit only in fact where it is used and works properly). Then we have two things that I wrote over the last couple of days and made the executive decision to include just because I can (and I'm sure you won't object .... right ?). They fix a couple of annoying and long standing "issues": - We had separate zImages for when booting via Open Firmware vs. booting via a flat device-tree, while it's trivial to make one that deals with both - We wasted a ton of cycles spinning secondary CPUs uselessly at boot instead of starting them when needed on pseries, thus contributing significantly to global warming" * 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc: powerpc/pseries: Do not start secondaries in Open Firmware powerpc/zImage: make the "OF" wrapper support ePAPR boot powerpc: Remove ksp_limit on ppc64 powerpc/irq: Run softirqs off the top of the irq stack
