This patch modifies functions gfs2_trans_add_meta and _data so that
they check whether the buffer_head is already in a transaction,
and if so, avoid taking the gfs2_log_lock.
Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This patch simply combines function meta_lo_add with its only
caller, trans_add_meta. This makes the code easier to read and
will make it easier to reduce contention on gfs2_log_lock.
Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This patch eliminates the int variable tr_touched in favor of a
new flag in the transaction. This is a step toward reducing contention
on the gfs2_log_lock spin_lock.

Before this patch, if a process called function gfs2_log_reserve to
reserve some journal blocks, but the journal not enough blocks were
free, it would call io_schedule. However, in the log flush daemon,
it woke up the waiters only if an gfs2_ail_flush was no longer
required. This resulted in situations where processes would wait
forever because the number of blocks required was so high that it
pushed the journal into a perpetual state of flush being required.

This patch changes the logd daemon so that it wakes up io waiters
every time the log is actually flushed.
Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

Before this patch, the logd daemon only tried to flush things when
the log blocks pinned exceeded a certain threshold. But when we're
deleting very large files, it may require a huge number of journal
blocks, and that, in turn, may exceed the threshold. This patch
factors that into account.
Signed-off-by: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@redhat.com>

This patch limits the number of transaction blocks requested during
file truncates. If we have very large multi-terabyte files, and want
to delete or truncate them, they might span so many resource groups
that we overflow the journal blocks, and cause an assert failure.
By limiting the number of blocks in the transaction, we prevent this
overflow and give other running processes time to do transactions.

The limiting factor I chose is sd_log_thresh2 which is currently
set to 4/5ths of the journal. This same ratio is used in function
gfs2_ail_flush_reqd to determine when a log flush is required.
If we make the maximum value less than this, we can get into a
infinite hang whereby the log stops moving because the number of
used blocks is less than the threshold and the iterative loop
needs more, but since we're under the threshold, the log daemon
never starts any IO on the log.

This patch fixes a place where function gfs2_glock_iter_next can

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window.

  The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work. Here we
  have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution,
  thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser.

  I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the
  old device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book. Both are meant
  to show how we can integrate together our existing documentation into
  a more coherent and accessible whole. It involves moving some stuff
  around and formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it.
  The good news is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files
  are *almost* in RST format already; the amount of messing around
  required is minimal.

  And, of course, there's the usual set of updates, typo fixes, and
  more"

Pull clk framework updates from Stephen Boyd:
 "The core clk framework changes are small again. They're mostly minor
  fixes that weren't causing enough problems (or any problems when we're
  just clarifying things) to warrant sending outside the merge window.
  The majority of changes are in drivers for various SoCs. Full details
  are in the logs, but here's the summary.

  Core:

   - Better support for DeviceTree overlays with the addition of the
     CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER macro. Now we won't probe a clk driver for a
     device node that matched during of_clk_init(), unless the driver
     uses CLK_OF_DECLARE_DRIVER instead of CLK_OF_DECLARE. This allows
     overlays to work cleanly for drivers that must probe before the
     device model is ready, and also after it's ready when an overlay is
     loaded.

   - Clarification in the code around how clk_hw pointers are returned
     from of clk providers

   - Proper migration of prepare/enable counts to parents when the clk
     tree is constructed

  New Drivers:

   - Socionext's UniPhier SoCs
   - Loongson1C
   - ZTE ZX296718

   - Amlogic GXBB AO clocks and resets
   - Broadcom BCM53573 ILP

That just generally kills the machine, and makes debugging only much
harder, since the traces may long be gone.

Debugging by assert() is a disease.  Don't do it.  If you can continue,
you're much better off doing so with a live machine where you have a
much higher chance that the report actually makes it to the system logs,
rather than result in a machine that is just completely dead.

The only valid situation for BUG_ON() is when continuing is not an
option, because there is massive corruption.  But if you are just
verifying that something is true, you warn about your broken assumptions
(preferably just once), and limp on.

 "Here is the big tty and serial patch set for 4.9-rc1.

  It also includes some drivers/dma/ changes, as those were needed by
  some serial drivers, and they were all acked by the DMA maintainer.

  Also in here is the long-suffering ACPI SPCR patchset, which was
  passed around from maintainer to maintainer like a hot-potato. Seems I
  was the sucker^Wlucky one. All of those patches have been acked by the
  various subsystem maintainers as well.

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:

   - Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
     drivers do not have to keep custom lists.

   - Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
     list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
     tip over to more lines removed than added.

   - Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.

   - Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.

   - Convert another batch of notifier users.

   The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
   shipped to me by Andrew.

Pull irq updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The irq departement proudly presents:

   - A rework of the core infrastructure to optimally spread interrupt
     for multiqueue devices. The first version was a bit naive and
     failed to take thread siblings and other details into account.
     Developed in cooperation with Christoph and Keith.

   - Proper delegation of softirqs to ksoftirqd, so if ksoftirqd is
     active then no further softirq processsing on interrupt return
     happens. Otherwise we try to delegate and still run another batch
     of network packets in the irq return path, which then tries to
     delegate to ksoftirqd .....

   - A proper machine parseable sysfs based alternative for
     /proc/interrupts.

   - ACPI support for the GICV3-ITS and ARM interrupt remapping

   - Two new irq chips from the ARM SoC zoo: STM32-EXTI and MVEBU-PIC

   - A new irq chip for the JCore (SuperH)
