      Revert "drm/i915: Use crtc_state->active in primary check_plane func" · 01e2d062
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This reverts commit dec4f799.
      
      Jörg Otte reports a NULL pointder dereference due to this commit, as
      'crtc_state' very much can be NULL:
      
              crtc_state = state->base.state ?
                      intel_atomic_get_crtc_state(state->base.state, intel_crtc) : NULL;
      
      So the change to test 'crtc_state->base.active' cannot possibly be
      correct as-is.
      
      There may be some other minimal fix (like just checking crtc_state for
      NULL), but I'm just reverting it now for the rc2 release, and people
      like Daniel Vetter who actually know this code will figure out what the
      right solution is in the longer term.

      freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed · 75a6f82a
      Al Viro authored
      	Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have
      the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and
      has no remaining links, of course).  However, there's one case where that
      does *not* happen.  Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache,
      then unlink() and close().
      
      	In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry
      is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from
      dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal.  In this case, though, we end
      up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and
      regular one (used by unlink()).  The latter will have its reference to inode
      dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it
      is on the ->s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure
      will finally do it in.  As the result, we have the final iput() delayed
      indefinitely.  It's trivial to reproduce -
      
      void flush_dcache(void)
      {
              system("mount -o remount,rw /");
      }
      
      static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024];
      
      main()
      {
              int fd;
              union {
                      struct file_handle f;
                      char buf[MAX_HANDLE_SZ];
              } x;
              int m;
      
              x.f.handle_bytes = sizeof(x);
              chdir("/root");
              mkdir("foo", 0700);
              fd = open("foo/bar", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0600);
              close(fd);
              name_to_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, "foo/bar", &x.f, &m, 0);
              flush_dcache();
              fd = open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &x.f, O_RDWR);
              unlink("foo/bar");
              write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
              system("df .");			/* 20Mb eaten */
              close(fd);
              system("df .");			/* should've freed those 20Mb */
              flush_dcache();
              system("df .");			/* should be the same as #2 */
      }
      
      will spit out something like
      Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
      /dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /
      Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
      /dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /
      Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
      /dev/root         322023 283282     21692  93% /
      - inode gets freed only when dentry is finally evicted (here we trigger
      than by remount; normally it would've happened in response to memory
      pressure hell knows when).

           Granted these are slightly large for a -rc update.  They have been
           out for review in one form or another since the end of May and were
           deferred from the merge window while we settled on the "PMEM API"
           for the PMEM-mode nvdimm driver (ie memremap_pmem, memcpy_to_pmem,
           and wmb_pmem).
      
           Now that those apis are merged we implement them in the BLK driver
           to guarantee that mmio aperture moves stay ordered with respect to
           incoming read/write requests, and that writes are flushed through
           those mmio-windows and platform-buffers to be persistent on media.
      
        These pass the sub-system unit tests with the updates to
        tools/testing/nvdimm, and have received a successful build-report from
