This driver has printk continuation lines for debugging purposes. Since commit 56387331 ("Merge branch 'printk-cleanups'"), this won't work as expected anymore. So, let's add KERN_CONT to those lines. Signed-off-by:

Since commit 56387331 ("Merge branch 'printk-cleanups"), continuation lines require KERN_CONT. Instead, let's just use %*ph to print the buffer. Signed-off-by:

The dvb_filter.c can hardly be considered as part of the DVB core. More than half of the code there is commented out by av7110 and ttusb_dec. On the latter, just two small helper functions and a struct definition is used. Being part of the core means that it would require an amount of work to fix issues in it, like bad printk's on it, and to document it on some future, like other kAPI headers. It simply not worth the effort for something that seems to be deprecated, as no new drivers use it. So, move it out of the core, by moving it to pci/ttpci directory, where av7110 driver is kept, and copy the two routines used by ttyusb_dec directly into its code. Signed-off-by:

There is a provision at the dvb_demux.c to use a vmalloc'ed circular buffer, enabled via an extra #ifdef option that it is not at Kconfig. Enabling it will only make the Kernel to allocate/deallocate such buffer, but no code would actually use it. So, no practical effect, except for sparing some memory without any good reason. So, get rid of such dead code. Signed-off-by:

There are some ifdefs inside the dvb_demux that are meant to enable advanced debug capabilities, at the cost of being very verbose. Keeping those as internal ifdefs is a very bad idea, as it doesn't make easy to check if the code there was broken by some patch. So, let's add an explicit Kconfig option for it. Signed-off-by:

Pull gcc plugins update from Kees Cook: "This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering, thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc). At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals" * tag 'gcc-plugins-v4.9-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kees/linux: latent_entropy: Mark functions with __latent_entropy gcc-plugins: Add latent_entropy plugin

NB: we are almost complete work on "cifsacl" (querying mode/uid/gid from ACL) for SMB3, but SMB3 support for cifsacl is not included in this set. - improved handling for SMB3 "credits" (even if server is buggy) Still working on two sets of changes: - cifsacl enablement for SMB3 - cleanup of RFC1001 length calculation (so we can handle encryption and multichannel and RDMA) And a couple of new bugs were reported recently (unrelated to above) so will probably have another merge request next week" * 'for-next' of git://git.samba.org/sfrench/cifs-2.6: (21 commits) CIFS: Retrieve uid and gid from special sid if enabled CIFS: Add new mount option to set owner uid and gid from special sids in acl CIFS: Reset read oplock to NONE if we have mandatory locks after reopen CIFS: Fix persistent handles re-opening on reconnect SMB2: Separate RawNTLMSSP authentication from SMB2_sess_setup SMB2: Separate Kerberos authentication from SMB2_sess_setup Expose cifs module parameters in sysfs Cleanup missing frees on some ioctls Enable previous version support Do not send SMB3 SET_INFO request if nothing is changing SMB3: Add mount parameter to allow user to override max credits fs/cifs: reopen persistent handles on reconnect Clarify locking of cifs file and tcon structures and make more granular Fix regression which breaks DFS mounting fs/cifs: keep guid when assigning fid to fileinfo SMB3: GUIDs should be constructed as random but valid uuids Set previous session id correctly on SMB3 reconnect cifs: Limit the overall credit acquired Display number of credits available Add way to query creation time of file via cifs xattr ...

Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering. In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the unbalanced percpu_up_write(). Unfortunately lockdep can't detect this, so this triggers misc BUG_ON()'s in kernel/rcu/sync.c. Reported-and-tested-by:

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array (typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the fast path (i.e. few iovec elements). The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are for each function. Signed-off-by:
