      Revert "cpufreq: pcc-cpufreq: update default value of cpuinfo_transition_latency" · da7d3abe
      Andreas Herrmann authored
      This reverts commit 790d849b.
      
      Using a v4.7-rc7 kernel on a HP ProLiant triggered following messages
      
       pcc-cpufreq: (v1.10.00) driver loaded with frequency limits: 1200 MHz, 2800 MHz
       cpufreq: ondemand governor failed, too long transition latency of HW, fallback to performance governor
      
      The last line was shown for each CPU in the system.
      Testing v4.5 (where commit 790d849b was integrated) triggered
      similar messages. Same behaviour on a 2nd HP Proliant system.
      
      So commit 790d849b (cpufreq: pcc-cpufreq: update default value of
      cpuinfo_transition_latency) causes the system to use performance
      governor which, I guess, was not the intention of the patch.
      
      Enabling debug output in pcc-cpufreq provides following verbose output:
      
       pcc-cpufreq: (v1.10.00) driver loaded with frequency limits: 1200 MHz, 2800 MHz
       pcc_get_offset: for CPU 0: pcc_cpu_data input_offset: 0x44, pcc_cpu_data output_offset: 0x48
       init: policy->max is 2800000, policy->min is 1200000
       get: get_freq for CPU 0
       get: SUCCESS: (virtual) output_offset for cpu 0 is 0xffffc9000d7c0048, contains a value of: 0xff06. Speed is: 168000 MHz
       cpufreq: ondemand governor failed, too long transition latency of HW, fallback to performance governor
       target: CPU 0 should go to target freq: 2800000 (virtual) input_offset is 0xffffc9000d7c0044
       target: was SUCCESSFUL for cpu 0
      
      I am asking to revert 790d849b to re-enable usage of ondemand
      governor with pcc-cpufreq.
      
      Fixes: 790d849b (cpufreq: pcc-cpufreq: update default value of cpuinfo_transition_latency)

      Btrfs: fix ->iterate_shared() by upgrading i_rwsem for delayed nodes · 02dbfc99
      Omar Sandoval authored
      Commit fe742fd4 ("Revert "btrfs: switch to ->iterate_shared()"")
      backed out the conversion to ->iterate_shared() for Btrfs because the
      delayed inode handling in btrfs_real_readdir() is racy. However, we can
      still do readdir in parallel if there are no delayed nodes.
      
      This is a temporary fix which upgrades the shared inode lock to an
      exclusive lock only when we have delayed items until we come up with a
      more complete solution. While we're here, rename the
      btrfs_{get,put}_delayed_items functions to make it very clear that
      they're just for readdir.
      
      Tested with xfstests and by doing a parallel kernel build:
      
      	while make tinyconfig && make -j4 && git clean dqfx; do
      		:
      	done
      
      along with a bunch of parallel finds in another shell:
      
      	while true; do
      		for ((i=0; i<4; i++)); do
      			find . >/dev/null &
      		done
      		wait
