74be0cc828 fsnotify: remove group_num altogether
The original fsnotify interface has a group-num which was intended to be
able to find a group after it was added.  I no longer think this is a
necessary thing to do and so we remove the group_num.

1201a5361b fsnotify: replace an event on a list
fanotify would like to clone events already on its notification list, make
changes to the new event, and then replace the old event on the list with
the new event.  This patch implements the replace functionality of that
process.

b4e4e14073 fsnotify: clone existing events
fsnotify_clone_event will take an event, clone it, and return the cloned
event to the caller.  Since events may be in use by multiple fsnotify
groups simultaneously certain event entries (such as the mask) cannot be
changed after the event was created.  Since fanotify would like to merge
events happening on the same file it needs a new clean event to work with
so it can change any fields it wishes.

74766bbfa9 fsnotify: per group notification queue merge types
inotify only wishes to merge a new event with the last event on the
notification fifo.  fanotify is willing to merge any events including by
means of bitwise OR masks of multiple events together.  This patch moves
the inotify event merging logic out of the generic fsnotify notification.c
and into the inotify code.  This allows each use of fsnotify to provide
their own merge functionality.

28c60e37f8 fsnotify: send struct file when sending events to parents when possible
fanotify needs a path in order to open an fd to the object which changed.
Currently notifications to inode's parents are done using only the inode.
For some parental notification we have the entire file, send that so

2a12a9d781 fsnotify: pass a file instead of an inode to open, read, and write
fanotify, the upcoming notification system actually needs a struct path so it can
do opens in the context of listeners, and it needs a file so it can get f_flags
from the original process.  Close was the only operation that already was passing
a struct file to the notification hook.  This patch passes a file for access,
modify, and open as well as they are easily available to these hooks.

8112e2d6a7 fsnotify: include data in should_send calls
fanotify is going to need to look at file->private_data to know if an event

dentry, inode, or none) to the should_send function calls so fanotify can

7b0a04fbfb fsnotify: provide the data type to should_send_event

to open the original file in the context of the fanotify listener.  Since
fanotify may not want to send events if that data isn't present we pass
the data type to the should_send_event function call so fanotify can express
its lack of interest.

94fe8c683c ks8842: Support DMA when accessed via timberdale
This patch adds support for RX and TX DMA via the DMA API,
this is only supported when the KS8842 is accessed via timberdale.

There is no support for DMA on the generic bus interface it self,
a state machine inside the FPGA is handling RX and TX transfers to/from
buffers in the FPGA. The host CPU can do DMA to and from these buffers.

The FPGA has to handle the RX interrupts, so these must be enabled in
the ks8842 but not in the FPGA. The driver must not disable the RX interrupt
that would mean that the data transfers into the FPGA buffers would stop.

The host shall not enable TX interrupts since TX is handled by the FPGA,
the host is notified by DMA callbacks when transfers are finished.

Which DMA channels to use are added as parameters in the platform data struct.

c1f79426e2 sysfs: add attribute to indicate hw address assignment type
Add addr_assign_type to struct net_device and expose it via sysfs.
This new attribute has the purpose of giving user-space the ability to
distinguish between different assignment types of MAC addresses.

For example user-space can treat NICs with randomly generated MAC
addresses differently than NICs that have permanent (locally assigned)
MAC addresses.
For the former udev could write a persistent net rule by matching the
device path instead of the MAC address.
There's also the case of devices that 'steal' MAC addresses from slave
devices. In which it is also be beneficial for user-space to be aware
of the fact.

This patch also introduces a helper function to assist adoption of
drivers that generate MAC addresses randomly.

(ACPI: Store NVS state even when entering suspend to RAM) caused the
ACPI suspend code save the NVS area during suspend and restore it
during resume unconditionally, although it is known that some systems
need to use acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs for hibernation to work.  To allow
the affected systems to avoid saving and restoring the NVS area
during suspend to RAM and resume, introduce kernel command line
option acpi_sleep=nonvs and make acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs work as its
alias temporarily (add acpi_sleep=s4_nonvs to the feature removal
file).

ii)  remove the usage of of_default_bus_ids in of_platform_bus_probe
iii) removes the definition of the list from all architectures that defined it

eca3930163 of: Merge of_platform_bus_type with platform_bus_type
of_platform_bus was being used in the same manner as the platform_bus.
The only difference being that of_platform_bus devices are generated
from data in the device tree, and platform_bus devices are usually
statically allocated in platform code.  Having them separate causes
the problem of device drivers having to be registered twice if it
was possible for the same device to appear on either bus.

This patch removes of_platform_bus_type and registers all of_platform
bus devices and drivers on the platform bus instead.  A previous patch
made the of_device structure an alias for the platform_device structure,
and a shim is used to adapt of_platform_drivers to the platform bus.

After all of of_platform_bus drivers are converted to be normal platform
drivers, the shim code can be removed.

22b8f15c2f timer: Added usleep[_range] timer
usleep[_range] are finer precision implementations of msleep
and are designed to be drop-in replacements for udelay where
a precise sleep / busy-wait is unnecessary. They also allow
an easy interface to specify slack when a precise (ish)
wakeup is unnecessary to help minimize wakeups

49daf6a226 xt_quota: report initial quota value instead of current value to userspace
We should copy the initial value to userspace for iptables-save and
to allow removal of specific quota rules.

8e2b2b46ea firewire: cdev: improve FW_CDEV_IOC_ALLOCATE
In both the ieee1394 stack and the firewire stack, the core treats
kernelspace drivers better than userspace drivers when it comes to
CSR address range allocation:  The former may request a register to be
placed automatically at a free spot anywhere inside a specified address
range.  The latter may only request a register at a fixed offset.

Hence, userspace drivers which do not require a fixed offset potentially
need to implement a retry loop with incremented offset in each retry
until the kernel does not fail allocation with EBUSY.  This awkward
procedure is not fundamentally necessary as the core already provides a
superior allocation API to kernelspace drivers.

Therefore change the ioctl() ABI by addition of a region_end member in
the existing struct fw_cdev_allocate.  Userspace and kernelspace APIs
work the same way now.

There is a small cost to pay by clients though:  If client source code
is required to compile with older kernel headers too, then any use of
the new member fw_cdev_allocate.region_end needs to be enclosed by
#ifdef/#endif directives.  However, any client program that seriously
wants to use address range allocations will require a kernel of cdev ABI
version >= 4 at runtime and a linux/firewire-cdev.h header of >= 4
anyway.  This is because v4 brings FW_CDEV_EVENT_REQUEST2.  The only
client program in which build-time compatibility with struct
fw_cdev_allocate as found in older kernel headers makes sense is
libraw1394.

(libraw1394 uses the older broken FW_CDEV_EVENT_REQUEST to implement a
makeshift, incorrect transaction responder that does at least work
somewhat in many simple scenarios, relying on guesswork by libraw1394
and by libraw1394 based applications.  Plus, address range allocation
and transaction responder is only one of many features that libraw1394
needs to provide, and these other features need to work with kernel and
kernel-headers as old as possible.  Any new linux/firewire-cdev.h based
client that implements a transaction responder should never attempt to
do it like libraw1394;  instead it should make a header and kernel of v4
or later a hard requirement.)

While we are at it, update the struct fw_cdev_allocate documentation to
better reflect the recent fw_cdev_event_request2 ABI addition.

cc550216ae firewire: cdev: add PHY pinging
This extends the FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_PHY_PACKET ioctl() for /dev/fw* to be
useful for ping time measurements.  One application for it would be gap
count optimization in userspace that is based on ping times rather than
hop count.  (The latter is implemented in firewire-core itself but is
not applicable to beta PHYs that act as repeater.)
