There used to be a bunch of tree-walkers in dcache.c, all alike. try_to_ascend() had been introduced to abstract a piece of logics duplicated in all of them. These days all these tree-walkers are implemented via the same iterator (d_walk()), which is the only remaining caller of try_to_ascend(), so let's fold it back...

Pull KVM changes from Paolo Bonzini: "Here are the 3.13 KVM changes. There was a lot of work on the PPC side: the HV and emulation flavors can now coexist in a single kernel is probably the most interesting change from a user point of view. On the x86 side there are nested virtualization improvements and a few bugfixes. ARM got transparent huge page support, improved overcommit, and support for big endian guests. Finally, there is a new interface to connect KVM with VFIO. This helps with devices that use NoSnoop PCI transactions, letting the driver in the guest execute WBINVD instructions.

Pull Xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "This has tons of fixes and two major features which are concentrated around the Xen SWIOTLB library. The short <blurb> is that the tracing facility (just one function) has been added to SWIOTLB to make it easier to track I/O progress. Additionally under Xen and ARM (32 & 64) the Xen-SWIOTLB driver "is used to translate physical to machine and machine to physical addresses of foreign[guest] pages for DMA operations" (Stefano) when booting under hardware without proper IOMMU. There are also bug-fixes, cleanups, compile warning fixes, etc. The commit times for some of the commits is a bit fresh - that is b/c we wanted to make sure we have the Ack's from the ARM folks - which with the string of back-to-back conferences took a bit of time. Rest assured - the code has been stewing in #linux-next for some time. Features: - SWIOTLB has tracing added when doing bounce buffer. - Xen ARM/ARM64 can use Xen-SWIOTLB. This work allows Linux to safely program real devices for DMA operations when running as a guest on Xen on ARM, without IOMMU support. [*1] - xen_raw_printk works with PVHVM guests if needed. Bug-fixes: - Make memory ballooning work under HVM with large MMIO region. - Inform hypervisor of MCFG regions found in ACPI DSDT. - Remove deprecated IRQF_DISABLED. - Remove deprecated __cpuinit. [*1]: "On arm and arm64 all Xen guests, including dom0, run with second stage translation enabled. As a consequence when dom0 programs a device for a DMA operation is going to use (pseudo) physical addresses instead machine addresses. This work introduces two trees to track physical to machine and machine to physical mappings of foreign pages. Local pages are assumed mapped 1:1 (physical address == machine address). It enables the SWIOTLB-Xen driver on ARM and ARM64, so that Linux can translate physical addresses to machine addresses for dma operations when necessary.

ERROR: "__divdi3" [fs/hfsplus/hfsplus.ko] undefined! Introduced by commit 099e9245 ("hfsplus: implement attributes file's header node initialization code"). i_size_read() returns loff_t, which is long long, i.e. 64-bit. node_size is size_t, which is either 32-bit or 64-bit. Hence "i_size_read(attr_file) / node_size" is a 64-by-32 or 64-by-64 division, causing (some versions of) gcc to emit a call to __divdi3(). Fortunately node_size is actually 16-bit, as the sole caller of hfsplus_init_header_node() passes a u16. Hence change its type from size_t to u16, and use do_div() to perform a 64-by-32 division. Not seen in m68k/allmodconfig in -next, so it really depends on the verion of gcc.

This patch enhances the type safety for the kfifo API. It is now safe to put const data into a non const FIFO and the API will now generate a compiler warning when reading from the fifo where the destination address is pointing to a const variable. As a side effect the kfifo_put() does now expect the value of an element instead a pointer to the element. This was suggested Russell King. It make the handling of the kfifo_put easier since there is no need to create a helper variable for getting the address of a pointer or to pass integers of different sizes. IMHO the API break is okay, since there are currently only six users of kfifo_put(). The code is also cleaner by kicking out the "if (0)" expressions.

For the casual device driver writer, it is hard to remember when to use init_completion (to init a completion structure) or INIT_COMPLETION (to *reinit* a completion structure). Furthermore, while all other completion functions exepct a pointer as a parameter, INIT_COMPLETION does not. To make it easier to remember which function to use and to make code more readable, introduce a new inline function with the proper name and consistent argument type. Update the kernel-doc for init_completion while we are here.

This ignores %n in printf again, as was originally documented. Implementing %n poses a greater security risk than utility, so it should stay ignored. To help anyone attempting to use %n, a warning will be emitted if it is encountered. Based on an earlier patch by Joe Perches. Because %n was designed to write to pointers on the stack, it has been frequently used as an attack vector when bugs are found that leak user-controlled strings into functions that ultimately process format strings. While this class of bug can still be turned into an information leak, removing %n eliminates the common method of elevating such a bug into an arbitrary kernel memory writing primitive, significantly reducing the danger of this class of bug. For seq_file users that need to know the length of a written string for padding, please see seq_setwidth() and seq_pad() instead.

If DEBUG_SPINLOCK and DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC are enabled spinlock_t on x86_64 is 72 bytes. For page->ptl they will be allocated from kmalloc-96 slab, so we loose 24 on each. An average system can easily allocate few tens thousands of page->ptl and overhead is significant. Let's create a separate slab for page->ptl allocation to solve this. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
