      vfs: move inode stat information closer together · 2f9d3df8
      Linus Torvalds authored
      The comment above it says "Stat data, not accessed from path walking",
      but in fact some of inode fields we use for the common stat data was way
      down at the end of the inode, causing unnecessary cache misses for the
      common stat operations.
      
      The inode structure is pretty big, and this can change padding depending
      on field width, but at least on the common 64-bit configurations this
      doesn't change the size.  Some of our inode layout has historically been
      to tro to avoid unnecessary padding fields, but cache locality is at
      least as important for layout, if not more.
      
      Noticed by looking at kernel profiles, and noticing that the "i_blkbits"
      access stood out like a sore thumb.

       "The device tree conversion for arm/ux500 in 3.5 turns out to be
        incomplete because of a mismerge done by Linus Walleij that I failed
        to notice early enough and that Lee Jones as the original author of
        those patches did not manage to fix during the -next cycle.  While we
        originally to get a much larger set of ux500 device tree enablement
        patches merged, this did not happen in time.
      
        After some discussion at Linaro Connect conference this week, Lee has
        been able to do damage control and provide a series to put the broken
        platform back into usable shape for both DT and non-DT based booting.
      
        This series has not been part of linux-next and is based on top of the
        current state of the upstream kernel rather than an -rc, but this is
        the best we could manage given the earlier breakage."

      x86, x32, ptrace: Remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL for x32 · bad1a753
      H.J. Lu authored
      When I added x32 ptrace to 3.4 kernel, I also include PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
      support for x32 GDB  For ARCH_GET_FS/GS, it takes a pointer to int64.  But
      at user level, ARCH_GET_FS/GS takes a pointer to int32.  So I have to add
      x32 ptrace to glibc to handle it with a temporary int64 passed to kernel and
      copy it back to GDB as int32.  Roland suggested that PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL
      is obsolete and x32 GDB should use fs_base and gs_base fields of
      user_regs_struct instead.
      
      Accordingly, remove PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL completely from the x32 code to
      avoid possible memory overrun when pointer to int32 is passed to
      kernel.

      This is because nand_scan_tail checks for correct ecc strength

      mtd: block2mtd: fix recursive call of mtd_writev · 2e24e32e
      Gabor Juhos authored
      The 'mtd_writev' interface calls the function assigned
      to the '_write' field of a given mtd device if that is
      not NULL. The block2mtd driver sets the '_writev' field
      to the 'mtd_writev' function itself and thus causes a
      endless loop.
      
      This is caused by 1dbebd32
      (mtd: harmonize mtd_writev usage).
      
      Remove the assignment from the block2mtd driver to fix the
