  SMP ordering, thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).

Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than
frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which
drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering.

In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before
it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the
unbalanced percpu_up_write(). Unfortunately lockdep can't detect this,
so this triggers misc BUG_ON()'s in kernel/rcu/sync.c.

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array
(typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy
from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the
fast path (i.e. few iovec elements).

The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used
the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between
the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are
for each function.

 - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro.

   This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates
   checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is
   working on a patch to fix this.

   Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely
   change prototypes.

 - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick
   Piggin

 - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan.

 - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with
   -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections

 - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell

 - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me.

Pull rdma qedr RoCE driver from Doug Ledford:
 "Early on in the merge window I mentioned I had a backlog of new
  drivers waiting to be reviewed and that, in addition to the hns-roce
  driver, I wanted to get possible a couple more reviewed. I ended up
  only having the time to complete one of the additional drivers.

  During Dave Miller's pull request this go around, there were a series
  of 9 patches to the QLogic qed net driver that add basic support for a
  paired RoCE driver. That support is currently not functional because
  it is missing the matching RoCE driver in the RDMA subsystem. I
  managed to finish that review. However, because it goes against part
  of Dave's net pull, and a part that was accepted a day or two after
  the merge window opened, to apply cleanly it has to be applied to
  either the tip of Dave's net branch, or as I did in this case, I just
  applied it to your master after you had taken Dave's pull request."

Pull more rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This merge window was the first where Huawei had to try and coordinate
  their patches between their net driver and their new roce driver
  (similar to mlx4 and mlx5).

  They didn't do horribly, but there were some issues (and we knew that
  because they simply didn't know what to do in the beginning). As a
  result, I had a set of patches that depended on some patches that
  normally would have come to you via Dave's tree. Those patches have
  been on netdev@ for a while, so I got Dave to give me his approval to
  send them to you. As such, the other 29 patches I had behind them are
  also now ready to go.

  This catches the hns and hns-roce drivers up to current, and for
  future patches we are working with them to get them up to speed on how
  to do joint driver development so that they don't have these sorts of
  cross tree dependency issues again. BTW, Dave gave me permission to
  add his Acked-by: to the patches against the net tree, but I've had
  this branch through 0day (but not linux-next since it was off by
  itself) and I didn't want to rebase the series just to add Dave's ack
  for the 8 patches in the net area.

  Updates to the hns drivers:

   - Small patch set for hns net driver that the roce patches depend on

   - Various fixes to the hns-roce driver

   - Add connection manager support to the hns-roce driver"

  Specifics:

   - Fix an unused function warning that started to appear after recent

   - Fix the KERN_CONT usage in acpi_os_vprintf() that has become
     (particularly) annoying recently (Joe Perches).

   - Fix the fan status checking in the ACPI fan driver to avoid
     returning incorrect error codes sometimes (Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Fix the ACPI Processor Aggregator driver (PAD) to always let the
     special processor_aggregator driver from Xen take over when running
     as Xen dom0 (Juergen Gross).

   - Update the handling of reference device properties in ACPI by
     allowing empty rows ("holes") to appear in reference property lists
     (Mika Westerberg).

   - Add a new MAINTAINERS entry for ACPI on ARM64 (Lorenzo Pieralisi)"
