ipip, sit: copy parms.name after register_netdevice
Same fix as 731abb9cb2 for ipip and sit tunnel.
Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in
ipip_tunnel_locate and ipip6_tunnel_locate, because register_netdevice
will now create a valid name, however the tunnel keeps a copy of the
name in the private parms structure. Fix this by copying the name back
after register_netdevice has successfully returned.
This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show:
$ sudo ip tunnel add mode ipip remote 10.2.20.211
$ ip tunnel

ipv6: Fix for adding multicast route for loopback device automatically.
There is no obvious reason to add a default multicast route for loopback
devices, otherwise there would be a route entry whose dst.error set to
-ENETUNREACH that would blocking all multicast packets.
====================
[ more detailed explanation ]
The problem is that the resulting routing table depends on the sequence
of interface's initialization and in some situation, that would block all
muticast packets. Suppose there are two interfaces on my computer
(lo and eth0), if we initailize 'lo' before 'eth0', the resuting routing
table(for multicast) would be
# ip -6 route show | grep ff00::
unreachable ff00::/8 dev lo metric 256 error -101
ff00::/8 dev eth0 metric 256
When sending multicasting packets, routing subsystem will return the first
route entry which with a error set to -101(ENETUNREACH).
I know the kernel will set the default ipv6 address for 'lo' when it is up
and won't set the default multicast route for it, but there is no reason to
stop 'init' program from setting address for 'lo', and that is exactly what
systemd did.
I am sure there is something wrong with kernel or systemd, currently I preferred
kernel caused this problem.

procfs: do not overflow get_{idle,iowait}_time for nohz
Since commit a25cac5198d4 ("proc: Consider NO_HZ when printing idle and
iowait times") we are reporting idle/io_wait time also while a CPU is
tickless. We rely on get_{idle,iowait}_time functions to retrieve
proper data.
These functions, however, use usecs_to_cputime to translate micro
seconds time to cputime64_t. This is just an alias to usecs_to_jiffies
which reduces the data type from u64 to unsigned int and also checks
whether the given parameter overflows jiffies_to_usecs(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)
and returns MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET in that case.
When we overflow depends on CONFIG_HZ but especially for CONFIG_HZ_300
it is quite low (1431649781) so we are getting MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET for
>3000s! until we overflow unsigned int. Just for reference
CONFIG_HZ_100 has an overflow window around 20s, CONFIG_HZ_250 ~8s and
CONFIG_HZ_1000 ~2s.
This results in a bug when people saw [h]top going mad reporting 100%
CPU usage even though there was basically no CPU load. The reason was
simply that /proc/stat stopped reporting idle/io_wait changes (and
reported MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET) and so the only change happening was for user
system time.
Let's use nsecs_to_jiffies64 instead which doesn't reduce the precision
to 32b type and it is much more appropriate for cumulative time values
(unlike usecs_to_jiffies which intended for timeout calculations).

The root cause is that 1GB page allocation calls gup_huge_pud() while 2M

tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are

oops on some machines:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f7f22280
IP: [<c10257b9>] reserve_ram_pages_type+0x89/0x210
[...]
A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region
with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying
it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by
ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache().
Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use
ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on
CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really
don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in
the following bug report,
Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA
regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on
CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI
regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to
init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these
regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM
region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows
us to delete efi_ioremap() completely.

cifs: check for NULL last_entry before calling cifs_save_resume_key
Prior to commit eaf35b1, cifs_save_resume_key had some NULL pointer
checks at the top. It turns out that at least one of those NULL
pointer checks is needed after all.
When the LastNameOffset in a FIND reply appears to be beyond the end of
the buffer, CIFSFindFirst and CIFSFindNext will set srch_inf.last_entry
to NULL. Since eaf35b1, the code will now oops in this situation.
Fix this by having the callers check for a NULL last entry pointer
before calling cifs_save_resume_key. No change is needed for the
call site in cifs_readdir as it's not reachable with a NULL
current_entry pointer.

cifs: attempt to freeze while looping on a receive attempt
In the recent overhaul of the demultiplex thread receive path, I
neglected to ensure that we attempt to freeze on each pass through the
receive loop.

DPLL1 reprogramming to a different rate is actually blocked inside
omap1_select_table_rate(). However, it is already forced at boot, for
boards which boot at unusable clock rates, and this seems to work
correctly.
OTOH, we now have a fine, run time performed clock selection algorithm
implemented, which prevents less powerfull SoCs from being overclocked
unintentionally.
Allow reprogramming of dpll1 by default, and use it for switching to the
higest supported clock rate with all boards, including those already
booting at a usable rate of 60 MHz or above.
Created against linux-omap/master tip as of Thu Dec 1,
commit f83c2a8cbb59981722d1ab610c79adfd034a2667. Requires the just
submitted patch "ARM: OMAP1: Move dpll1 rates selection from config to
runtime" to prevent from unintentional overclocking. Tested on Amstrad
Delta.
