mm: drop support of non-linear mapping from unmap/zap codepath
We have remap_file_pages(2) emulation in -mm tree for few release cycles
and we plan to have it mainline in v3.20. This patchset removes rest of
VM_NONLINEAR infrastructure.
Patches 1-8 take care about generic code. They are pretty
straight-forward and can be applied without other of patches.
Rest patches removes pte_file()-related stuff from architecture-specific
code. It usually frees up one bit in non-present pte. I've tried to reuse
that bit for swap offset, where I was able to figure out how to do that.
For obvious reason I cannot test all that arch-specific code and would
like to see acks from maintainers.
In total, remap_file_pages(2) required about 1.4K lines of not-so-trivial
kernel code. That's too much for functionality nobody uses.

mm: replace remap_file_pages() syscall with emulation
remap_file_pages(2) was invented to be able efficiently map parts of
huge file into limited 32-bit virtual address space such as in database
workloads.
Nonlinear mappings are pain to support and it seems there's no
legitimate use-cases nowadays since 64-bit systems are widely available.
Let's drop it and get rid of all these special-cased code.
The patch replaces the syscall with emulation which creates new VMA on
each remap_file_pages(), unless they it can be merged with an adjacent
one.
I didn't find *any* real code that uses remap_file_pages(2) to test
emulation impact on. I've checked Debian code search and source of all
packages in ALT Linux. No real users: libc wrappers, mentions in
strace, gdb, valgrind and this kind of stuff.
There are few basic tests in LTP for the syscall. They work just fine
with emulation.
To test performance impact, I've written small test case which
demonstrate pretty much worst case scenario: map 4G shmfs file, write to
begin of every page pgoff of the page, remap pages in reverse order,
read every page.
The test creates 1 million of VMAs if emulation is in use, so I had to
set vm.max_map_count to 1100000 to avoid -ENOMEM.

mm: don't use compound_head() in virt_to_head_page()
compound_head() is implemented with assumption that there would be race
condition when checking tail flag. This assumption is only true when we
try to access arbitrary positioned struct page.
The situation that virt_to_head_page() is called is different case. We
call virt_to_head_page() only in the range of allocated pages, so there
is no race condition on tail flag. In this case, we don't need to
handle race condition and we can reduce overhead slightly. This patch
implements compound_head_fast() which is similar with compound_head()
except tail flag race handling. And then, virt_to_head_page() uses this
optimized function to improve performance.

mm/slub: optimize alloc/free fastpath by removing preemption on/off
We had to insert a preempt enable/disable in the fastpath a while ago in
order to guarantee that tid and kmem_cache_cpu are retrieved on the same
cpu. It is the problem only for CONFIG_PREEMPT in which scheduler can
move the process to other cpu during retrieving data.
Now, I reach the solution to remove preempt enable/disable in the
fastpath. If tid is matched with kmem_cache_cpu's tid after tid and
kmem_cache_cpu are retrieved by separate this_cpu operation, it means
that they are retrieved on the same cpu. If not matched, we just have
to retry it.
With this guarantee, preemption enable/disable isn't need at all even if
CONFIG_PREEMPT, so this patch removes it.
I saw roughly 5% win in a fast-path loop over kmem_cache_alloc/free in
CONFIG_PREEMPT. (14.821 ns -> 14.049 ns)

o2dlm: fix NULL pointer dereference in o2dlm_blocking_ast_wrapper
A tiny race between BAST and unlock message causes the NULL dereference.
A node sends an unlock request to master and receives a response. Before
processing the response it receives a BAST from the master. Since both
requests are processed by different threads it creates a race. While the
BAST is being processed, lock can get freed by unlock code.
This patch makes bast to return immediately if lock is found but unlock is
pending. The code should handle this race. We also have to fix master

fsnotify: fix handling of renames in audit
Commit e9fd702a58c4 ("audit: convert audit watches to use fsnotify
instead of inotify") broke handling of renames in audit. Audit code
wants to update inode number of an inode corresponding to watched name
in a directory. When something gets renamed into a directory to a
watched name, inotify previously passed moved inode to audit code
however new fsnotify code passes directory inode where the change
happened. That confuses audit and it starts watching parent directory
instead of a file in a directory.
This can be observed for example by doing:
cd /tmp
touch foo bar
auditctl -w /tmp/foo
touch foo
mv bar foo
touch foo
and that's it - we see event for the first touch after creating the
audit rule, we see events for rename but we don't see any event for the
last touch. However we start seeing events for unrelated stuff
happening in /tmp.
Fix the problem by passing moved inode as data in the FS_MOVED_FROM and
FS_MOVED_TO events instead of the directory where the change happens.
This doesn't introduce any new problems because noone besides
audit_watch.c cares about the passed value:
fs/notify/fanotify/fanotify.c cares only about FSNOTIFY_EVENT_PATH events.
fs/notify/dnotify/dnotify.c doesn't care about passed 'data' value at all.
fs/notify/inotify/inotify_fsnotify.c uses 'data' only for FSNOTIFY_EVENT_PATH.
kernel/audit_tree.c doesn't care about passed 'data' at all.
kernel/audit_watch.c expects moved inode as 'data'.

ARM: 8300/1: teach __asmeq that r11 == fp and r12 == ip
The __asmeq macro is used inside inline asm statements to ensure that
register asm variables that explicitly specify a register are mapped
correctly onto those registers when used in inline asm input and output
constraints. However, the string based matching fails to take into
account that 'fp' is often referred to as 'r11' and 'ip' is often
referred to as 'r12', (e.g., by clang), causing false negatives.
Fix this by making __asmeq consider the ("fp","r11"), ("r11","fp"),
("ip","r12") and ("r12","ip") cases specifically.
