5d3bc27091 mm: fix NUMA accounting in numastat.txt
In Documentation/numastat.txt, it confused me.  For example, there are
nodes [0,1] in system.

barrios:~$ cat /proc/zoneinfo | egrep 'numa|zone'
Node 0, zone	DMA
	numa_hit	33226
	numa_miss	1739
	numa_foreign	27978
	..
	..
Node 1, zone	DMA
	numa_hit	307
	numa_miss	46900
	numa_foreign	0

1) In node 0,  NUMA_MISS means it wanted to allocate page
in node 1 but ended up with page in node 0

2) In node 0, NUMA_FOREIGN means it wanted to allocate page
in node 0 but ended up with page from Node 1.

But now, numastat explains it oppositely about (MISS, FOREIGN).
Let's fix up with viewpoint of zone.

8fbb398f5c tracing, documentation: Add a document on the kmem tracepoints

bb72222086 tracing, documentation: add a document describing how to do some performance analysis with tracepoints
The documentation for ftrace, events and tracepoints is pretty extensive.
Similarly, the perf PCL tools help files --help are there and the code
simple enough to figure out what much of the switches mean.  However,
pulling the discrete bits and pieces together and translating that into
"how do I solve a problem" requires a fair amount of imagination.

This patch adds a simple document intended to get someone started on the

c9d05cfc00 tracing, page-allocator: add a postprocessing script for page-allocator-related ftrace events
This patch adds a simple post-processing script for the
page-allocator-related trace events.  It can be used to give an indication
of who the most allocator-intensive processes are and how often the zone
lock was taken during the tracing period.  Example output looks like

Optionally, the output can include information on the parent or aggregate
based on process name instead of aggregating based on each pid. Example output
including parent information and stripped out the PID looks something like;

Process                        Pages      Pages      Pages    Pages       PCPU     PCPU     PCPU   Fragment Fragment  MigType Fragment Fragment  Unknown

This says that Xorg allocated 3796 pages and it's parent process is gdm
with a PID of 3756;

The postprocessor parses the text output of tracing.  While there is a
binary format, the expectation is that the binary output can be readily
translated into text and post-processed offline.  Obviously if the text
format changes, the parser will break but the regular expression parser is
fairly rudimentary so should be readily adjustable.

398499d5f3 pagemap clear_refs: modify to specify anon or mapped vma clearing
The patch makes the clear_refs more versatile in adding the option to
select anonymous pages or file backed pages for clearing.  This addition
has a measurable impact on user space application performance as it
decreases the number of pagewalks in scenarios where one is only
interested in a specific type of page (anonymous or file mapped).

The patch adds anonymous and file backed filters to the clear_refs interface.

echo 1 > /proc/PID/clear_refs resets the bits on all pages
echo 2 > /proc/PID/clear_refs resets the bits on anonymous pages only
echo 3 > /proc/PID/clear_refs resets the bits on file backed pages only

Any other value is ignored

2bace8b951 trivial: doc: hpfall: reduce risk that hpfall can do harm
Improve the example code to be at least useable, as in not causing
harm (as shown below). Code can still be improved further, but this
adds some basic safeguards.

1. hpfall *MUST* mlockall(MCL_CURRENT|MCL_FUTURE); itself!
Since the Program sits and waits most of the time it becomes very likely
swapped out. If it gets woken up when the laptop drops from the table
while it is swapped out it actually triggers harddrive activity!

2. Daemonize hpfall using 'daemon(0,0)' (quick and dirty).

3. Give hpfall realtime priority.
Should give a chance that it has less latency when woken up.

0d922e3b84 thinkpad-acpi: hotkey event driver update
Update the HKEY event driver to:

1. Handle better the second-gen firmware, which has no HKEY mask
   support but does report FN+F3, FN+F4 and FN+F12 without the need
   for NVRAM polling.

   a) always make the mask-related attributes available in sysfs;
   b) use DMI quirks to detect the second-gen firmware;
   c) properly report that FN+F3, FN+F4 and FN+F12 are enabled,
      and available even on mask-less second-gen firmware;

2. Decouple the issuing of hotkey events towards userspace from
   their reception from the firmware.  ALSA mixer and brightness
   event reporting support will need this feature.

3. Clean up the mess in the hotkey driver a great deal.  It is
   still very convoluted, and wants a full refactoring into a
   proper event API interface, but that is not going to happen
   today.

4. Fully reset firmware interface on resume (restore hotkey
   mask and status).

5. Stop losing polled events for no good reason when changing the
   mask and poll frequencies.  We will still lose them when the
   hotkey_source_mask is changed, as well as any that happened
   between driver suspend and driver resume.

The hotkey subdriver now has the notion of user-space-visible hotkey
event mask, as well as of the set of "hotkey" events the driver needs
(because brightness/volume change reports are not just keypress
reports in most ThinkPad models).

With this rewrite, the ABI level is bumped to 0x020500 should
userspace need to know it is dealing with the updated hotkey
subdriver.

caa27b66bd kbuild: use INSTALLKERNEL to select customized installkernel script
Replace the use of CROSS_COMPILE to select a customized
installkernel script with the possibility to set INSTALLKERNEL
to select a custom installkernel script when running make:

    make INSTALLKERNEL=arm-installkernel install

With this patch we are now more consistent across
different architectures - they did not all support use
of CROSS_COMPILE.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE was a hack as this really belongs
to gcc/binutils and the installkernel script does not change
just because we change toolchain.

The use of CROSS_COMPILE caused troubles with an upcoming patch
that saves CROSS_COMPILE when a kernel is built - it would no
longer be installable.
[Thanks to Peter Z. for this hint]

This patch undos what Ian did in commit:

  0f8e2d62fa04441cd12c08ce521e84e5bd3f8a46
  ("use ${CROSS_COMPILE}installkernel in arch/*/boot/install.sh")

The patch has been lightly tested on x86 only - but all changes
looks obvious.

fc28c39f0e mtd: maps: add mtd-ram support to physmap_of
Use physmap_of to access RAMs as mtd and add documenation for it. This approach
is a lot less intrusive as adding an of-wrapper around plat-ram.c. As most
extensions of plat-ram.c (e.g. custom map-functions) can't be mapped to the
device tree anyhow, extending physmap_of seems to be the cleanest approach.

Tested with a phyCORE-MPC5121e.

and will send ACPI notifications over the ACPI netlink socket.  This
latest revision only enables the power capping controls if it can be
confirmed that the power cap can be enforced by the hardware and explains
how the notification interfaces work.

06777be6d8 thinkpad-acpi: deprecate hotkey_bios_mask
Some analysis of the ACPI DSDTs shows that the HKEY pre-enabled mask
is always 0x80c (FN+F3,FN+F4 and FN+F12), which are the hotkeys that
the second gen of HKEY firmware supported (the first gen didn't report
any hotkeys, the second reported these tree hotkeys but had no mask
support, and the third added mask support).

So, this is probably some sort of backwards compatibility with older
versions of the IBM ThinkVantage suite.  We have no use for that, and
I know of exactly ZERO users of that attribute, anyway.  Start the
process of getting rid of it.

test status analog (PAL-B):
- Sometimes picture is noisy, but it becomes crystal clear after
  switching between channels. (happens for example at 687.25 Mhz)
- On a lower frequency (511.25 Mhz) the picture is always sharp, but
  lacks colour.
- No sound problems.
- radio untested.

Digital:
- DVB-T/H stream reception works.
- Would expect to see some more channels in the higher frequency region.

Overall is the impression that sensitivity still needs improvement
both in analog and digital modes.
