      Three exceptions, actually - parisc open() is another case like that.
      Native 32bit won't force O_LARGEFILE, the same binary on parisc64 will.

      Merge 'block-dev' branch.
      
      I was going to just mark everything here for stable and leave it to the
      3.8 merge window, but having decided on doing another -rc, I migth as
      well merge it now.
      
      This removes the bd_block_size_semaphore semaphore that was added in
      this release to fix a race condition between block size changes and
      block IO, and replaces it with atomicity guaratees in fs/buffer.c
      instead, along with simplifying fs/block-dev.c.
      
      This removes more lines than it adds, makes the code generally simpler,
      and avoids the latency/rt issues that the block size semaphore
      introduced for mount.
      
      I'm not happy with the timing, but it wouldn't be much better doing this
      during the merge window and then having some delayed back-port of it
      into stable.
      
      * block-dev:
        blkdev_max_block: make private to fs/buffer.c
        direct-io: don't read inode->i_blkbits multiple times
        blockdev: remove bd_block_size_semaphore again

      The usual rules for open()/openat()/open_by_handle_at() are

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull  late workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
       "Unfortunately, I have two really late fixes.  One was for a
        long-standing bug and queued for 3.8 but I found out about a
        regression introduced during 3.7-rc1 two days ago, so I'm sending out
        the two fixes together.
      
        The first (long-standing) one is rescuer_thread() entering exit path
        w/ TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE.  It only triggers on workqueue destructions
        which isn't very frequent and the exit path can usually survive being
        called with TASK_INTERRUPT, so it was hidden pretty well.  Apparently,
        if you're reiserfs, this could lead to the exiting kthread sleeping
        indefinitely holding a mutex, which is never good.
      
        The fix is simple - restoring TASK_RUNNING before returning from the
        kthread function.
      
        The second one is introduced by the new mod_delayed_work().
        mod_delayed_work() was missing special case handling for 0 delay.
        Instead of queueing the work item immediately, it queued the timer
        which expires on the closest next tick.  Some users of the new
        function converted from "[__]cancel_delayed_work() +
        queue_delayed_work()" combination became unhappy with the extra delay.
      
        Block unplugging led to noticeably higher number of context switches
        and intel 6250 wireless failed to associate with WPA-Enterprise
        network.  The fix, again, is fairly simple.  The 0 delay special case
        logic from queue_delayed_work_on() should be moved to
        __queue_delayed_work() which is shared by both queue_delayed_work_on()
        and mod_delayed_work_on().
      
        The first one is difficult to trigger and the failure mode for the
        latter isn't completely catastrophic, so missing these two for 3.7
        wouldn't make it a disastrous release, but both bugs are nasty and the
        fixes are fairly safe"

      Recent network changes allowed high order pages being used
      for skb fragments.
      
      This uncovered a bug in do_tcp_sendpages() which was assuming its caller
      provided an array of order-0 page pointers.
      
      We only have to deal with a single page in this function, and its order
      is irrelevant.

      workqueue: mod_delayed_work_on() shouldn't queue timer on 0 delay · 8852aac2
      Tejun Heo authored
      8376fe22 ("workqueue: implement mod_delayed_work[_on]()")
      implemented mod_delayed_work[_on]() using the improved
      try_to_grab_pending().  The function is later used, among others, to
      replace [__]candel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work() combinations.
      
      Unfortunately, a delayed_work item w/ zero @delay is handled slightly
      differently by mod_delayed_work_on() compared to
      queue_delayed_work_on().  The latter skips timer altogether and
      directly queues it using queue_work_on() while the former schedules
      timer which will expire on the closest tick.  This means, when @delay
      is zero, that [__]cancel_delayed_work() + queue_delayed_work_on()
      makes the target item immediately executable while
      mod_delayed_work_on() may induce delay of upto a full tick.
      
      This somewhat subtle difference breaks some of the converted users.
      e.g. block queue plugging uses delayed_work for deferred processing
      and uses mod_delayed_work_on() when the queue needs to be immediately
      unplugged.  The above problem manifested as noticeably higher number
      of context switches under certain circumstances.
      
      The difference in behavior was caused by missing special case handling
      for 0 delay in mod_delayed_work_on() compared to
      queue_delayed_work_on().  Joonsoo Kim posted a patch to add it -
      ("workqueue: optimize mod_delayed_work_on() when @delay == 0")[1].
      The patch was queued for 3.8 but it was described as optimization and
      I missed that it was a correctness issue.
      
      As both queue_delayed_work_on() and mod_delayed_work_on() use
      __queue_delayed_work() for queueing, it seems that the better approach
      is to move the 0 delay special handling to the function instead of
      duplicating it in mod_delayed_work_on().
      
      Fix the problem by moving 0 delay special case handling from
      queue_delayed_work_on() to __queue_delayed_work().  This replaces
      Joonsoo's patch.

      x86, fpu: Avoid FPU lazy restore after suspend · 644c1541
      Vincent Palatin authored
      When a cpu enters S3 state, the FPU state is lost.
      After resuming for S3, if we try to lazy restore the FPU for a process running
      on the same CPU, this will result in a corrupted FPU context.
      
      Ensure that "fpu_owner_task" is properly invalided when (re-)initializing a CPU,
      so nobody will try to lazy restore a state which doesn't exist in the hardware.
      
      Tested with a 64-bit kernel on a 4-core Ivybridge CPU with eagerfpu=off,
      by doing thousands of suspend/resume cycles with 4 processes doing FPU
      operations running. Without the patch, a process is killed after a
      few hundreds cycles by a SIGFPE.
