This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations. The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full critical section we waited on. This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not unreasonably) rely on this. I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is sufficient. Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value because I could not convince myself the address dependency is sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes. I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.

This new form allows using hardware assisted waiting.

Pull GPIO fixes from Linus Walleij: "A new bunch of GPIO fixes for v4.7. This time I am very grateful that Ricardo Ribalda Delgado went in and fixed my stupid refcounting mistakes in the removal path for GPIO chips. I had a feeling something was wrong here and so it was. It exploded on OMAP and it fixes their problem. Now it should be (more) solid. The rest i compilation, Kconfig and driver fixes. Some tagged for stable. Summary: - Fix a NULL pointer dereference when we are searching the GPIO device list but one of the devices have been removed (struct gpio_chip pointer is NULL). - Fix unaligned reference counters: we were ending on +3 after all said and done. It should be 0. Remove an extraneous get_device(), and call cdev_del() followed by device_del() in gpiochip_remove() instead and the count goes to zero and calls the release() function properly. - Fix a compile warning due to a missing #include in the OF/device tree portions. - Select ANON_INODES for GPIOLIB, we're using that for our character device. Some randconfig tests disclosed the problem. - Make sure the Zynq driver clock runs also without CONFIG_PM enabled - Fix an off-by-one error in the 104-DIO-48E driver - Fix warnings in bcm_kona_gpio_reset()" * tag 'gpio-v4.7-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: gpio: bcm-kona: fix bcm_kona_gpio_reset() warnings gpio: select ANON_INODES gpio: include <linux/io-mapping.h> in gpiolib-of gpiolib: Fix unaligned used of reference counters gpiolib: Fix NULL pointer deference gpio: zynq: initialize clock even without CONFIG_PM gpio: 104-dio-48e: Fix control port offset computation off-by-one error

Fix temporarily by blacklisting Qemu (we can relax later when they come into compliance). - The other is a fix to the optimal transfer size. We set up a minefield for ourselves by being confused about whether the limits are in bytes or sectors (SCSI optimal is in blocks and the queue parameter is in bytes).

-
Jann Horn authored
Until now, hitting this BUG_ON caused a recursive oops (because oops handling involves do_exit(), which calls into the scheduler, which in turn raises an oops), which caused stuff below the stack to be overwritten until a panic happened (e.g. via an oops in interrupt context, caused by the overwritten CPU index in the thread_info).

This prevents stacking filesystems (ecryptfs and overlayfs) from using procfs as lower filesystem. There is too much magic going on inside procfs, and there is no good reason to stack stuff on top of procfs. (For example, procfs does access checks in VFS open handlers, and ecryptfs by design calls open handlers from a kernel thread that doesn't drop privileges or so.)
