      mtd: m25p80: allow arbitrary OF matching for "jedec,spi-nor" · 43163022
      Brian Norris authored 
      When we added the "jedec,spi-nor" compatible string for use in this
driver, we added it as a modalias option. The modalias can be derived in
different ways for platform devices vs. device tree (of_*) matching. But
for device tree matching (the primary target of this identifier string),
the modalias is determined from the first entry in the 'compatible'
property. IOW, the following properties would bind to this driver:

	// Option (a), modalias = "spi-nor"
	compatible = "jedec,spi-nor";

	// Option (b), modalias = "spi-nor"
	compatible = "idontknowwhatimdoing,spi-nor";

But the following would not:

	// Option (c), modalias = "shinynewdevice"
	compatible = "myvendor,shinynewdevice", "jedec,spi-nor";

So, we'd like to match (a) and (c) (even when we don't have an explicit
entry for "shinynewdevice"), and we'd rather not allow (b).

To do this, we
  (1) always (for devices without specific platform data) pass the
      modalias to the spi-nor library;
  (2) rework the spi-nor library to not reject "bad" names, and
      instead just fall back to autodetection; and
  (3) add the .of_match_table to properly catch all "jedec,spi-nor".

This allows (a) and (c) without warnings, and rejects (b).

      bluetooth: fix list handling · 9b284cbd
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Commit 835a6a2f ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning")
thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing
out the list pointers and removed it.

But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL
pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just
broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on
a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further).

So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling
(which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to
initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized
implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc())

This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong
An.

[ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going
  to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly   - Linus ]

      Linus Torvalds authored 
      Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of
  different areas.

  The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within
  target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric
  drivers tree-wide.

  There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and
  se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a
  completely lockless code-path.  It also removes the original
  hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint.

  The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core
  and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while
  still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes.

  The highlights include:

   - Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi)
   - Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker
     (Christophe Vu-Brugier)
   - Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover)
   - Move se_node_acl allocation into target-core code (hch)
   - Add crc_t10dif_update common helper (akinobu + mkp)
   - Handle target-core odd SGL mapping for data transfer memory
     (akinobu)
   - Move transport ID handling into target-core (hch)
   - Move task tag into struct se_cmd + support 64-bit tags (bart)
   - Convert se_node_acl->device_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch +
     paulmck)
   - Convert se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch +
     paulmck)
   - Simplify target backend driver registration (hch)
   - Consolidate + simplify target backend attribute implementations
     (hch + nab)
   - Subsume se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member into se_lun (hch)
   - Drop lun_sep_lock for se_lun->lun_se_dev RCU usage (hch + nab)
   - Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter (nab)
   - Use 64-bit LUNs tree-wide (hannes)
   - Drop left-over TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT limit (hannes)"

      Pull NTB updates from Jon Mason:
 "This includes a pretty significant reworking of the NTB core code, but
  has already produced some significant performance improvements.

  An abstraction layer was added to allow the hardware and clients to be
  easily added.  This required rewriting the NTB transport layer for
  this abstraction layer.  This modification will allow future "high
  performance" NTB clients.

  In addition to this change, a number of performance modifications were
  added.  These changes include NUMA enablement, using CPU memcpy
  instead of asyncdma, and modification of NTB layer MTU size"

      If we'd already sent a request and decide to abort it, we *must*
issue TFLUSH properly and not just blindly reuse the tag, or
we'll get seriously screwed when response eventually arrives
and we confuse it for response to later request that had reused
the same tag.

      Matthew Wilcox authored 
      The brd driver is the only in-tree driver that may sleep currently.
After some discussion on linux-fsdevel, we decided that any driver
may choose to sleep in its ->direct_access method.  To ensure that all
callers of bdev_direct_access() are prepared for this, add a call
to might_sleep().
