a1087ef6ab scripts/coccinelle: update for compatability with Coccinelle 0.2.4
For doubleinit.cocci, Coccinelle 0.2.4 requires a comma after ... in a
field list.  Coccinelle also now behaves gracefully when a definition is
provided for a virtual that doesn't exist, so there is no need for the
semantic patch code to check for this case.

Updated the documentation to reflect the fact that the best results will
now be obtained with Coccinelle version 0.2.4 or later.

8348c259dd arm/pxa2xx: reorgazine SSP and SPI header files
The PXA-SPI driver relies on some files / defines which are arm specific
and are within the ARM tree. The CE4100 SoC which is x86 has also the
SPI core.
This patch moves the ssp and spi files from arm/mach-pxa and plat-pxa to
include/linux where the CE4100 can access them.

This move got verified by building the following defconfigs:
   cm_x2xx_defconfig corgi_defconfig em_x270_defconfig ezx_defconfig
   imote2_defconfig pxa3xx_defconfig spitz_defconfig zeus_defconfig

5091faa449 sched: Add 'autogroup' scheduling feature: automated per session task groups
A recurring complaint from CFS users is that parallel kbuild has
a negative impact on desktop interactivity.  This patch
implements an idea from Linus, to automatically create task
groups.  Currently, only per session autogroups are implemented,
but the patch leaves the way open for enhancement.

Implementation: each task's signal struct contains an inherited
pointer to a refcounted autogroup struct containing a task group
pointer, the default for all tasks pointing to the
init_task_group.  When a task calls setsid(), a new task group
is created, the process is moved into the new task group, and a
reference to the preveious task group is dropped.  Child
processes inherit this task group thereafter, and increase it's
refcount.  When the last thread of a process exits, the
process's reference is dropped, such that when the last process
referencing an autogroup exits, the autogroup is destroyed.

At runqueue selection time, IFF a task has no cgroup assignment,
its current autogroup is used.

Autogroup bandwidth is controllable via setting it's nice level
through the proc filesystem:

  cat /proc/<pid>/autogroup

Displays the task's group and the group's nice level.

  echo <nice level> > /proc/<pid>/autogroup

Sets the task group's shares to the weight of nice <level> task.
Setting nice level is rate limited for !admin users due to the
abuse risk of task group locking.

The feature is enabled from boot by default if
CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP=y is selected, but can be disabled via
the boot option noautogroup, and can also be turned on/off on
the fly via:

  echo [01] > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_autogroup_enabled

... which will automatically move tasks to/from the root task group.

d00a1c72f7 keys: add new trusted key-type
Define a new kernel key-type called 'trusted'.  Trusted keys are random
number symmetric keys, generated and RSA-sealed by the TPM.  The TPM
only unseals the keys, if the boot PCRs and other criteria match.
Userspace can only ever see encrypted blobs.

Based on suggestions by Jason Gunthorpe, several new options have been
added to support additional usages.

The new options are:
migratable=  designates that the key may/may not ever be updated
             (resealed under a new key, new pcrinfo or new auth.)

pcrlock=n    extends the designated PCR 'n' with a random value,
             so that a key sealed to that PCR may not be unsealed
             again until after a reboot.

keyhandle=   specifies the sealing/unsealing key handle.

keyauth=     specifies the sealing/unsealing key auth.

blobauth=    specifies the sealed data auth.

Implementation of a kernel reserved locality for trusted keys will be
investigated for a possible future extension.

Changelog:
- Updated and added examples to Documentation/keys-trusted-encrypted.txt
- Moved generic TPM constants to include/linux/tpm_command.h
  (David Howell's suggestion.)
- trusted_defined.c: replaced kzalloc with kmalloc, added pcrlock failure
  error handling, added const qualifiers where appropriate.
- moved to late_initcall
- updated from hash to shash (suggestion by David Howells)
- reduced worst stack usage (tpm_seal) from 530 to 312 bytes
- moved documentation to Documentation directory (suggestion by David Howells)
- all the other code cleanups suggested by David Howells
- Add pcrlock CAP_SYS_ADMIN dependency (based on comment by Jason Gunthorpe)
- New options: migratable, pcrlock, keyhandle, keyauth, blobauth (based on
  discussions with Jason Gunthorpe)
- Free payload on failure to create key(reported/fixed by Roberto Sassu)
- Updated Kconfig and other descriptions (based on Serge Hallyn's suggestion)
- Replaced kzalloc() with kmalloc() (reported by Serge Hallyn)

0147fc058d tcp: restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale (#20312)
tcp_win_from_space() does the following:

      if (sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale <= 0)
              return space >> (-sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale);
      else
              return space - (space >> sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale);

"space" is int.

As per C99 6.5.7 (3) shifting int for 32 or more bits is
undefined behaviour.

Indeed, if sysctl_tcp_adv_win_scale is exactly 32,
space >> 32 equals space and function returns 0.

Which means we busyloop in tcp_fixup_rcvbuf().

Restrict net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale to [-31, 31].

Fix https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20312

Steps to reproduce:

      echo 32 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_adv_win_scale
      wget www.kernel.org

a42c390cfa cgroups: make swap accounting default behavior configurable
Swap accounting can be configured by CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP
configuration option and then it is turned on by default.  There is a boot
option (noswapaccount) which can disable this feature.

This makes it hard for distributors to enable the configuration option as
this feature leads to a bigger memory consumption and this is a no-go for
general purpose distribution kernel.  On the other hand swap accounting
may be very usuful for some workloads.

This patch adds a new configuration option which controls the default
behavior (CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED).  If the option is selected
then the feature is turned on by default.

It also adds a new boot parameter swapaccount[=1|0] which enhances the
original noswapaccount parameter semantic by means of enable/disable logic
(defaults to 1 if no value is provided to be still consistent with
noswapaccount).

The default behavior is unchanged (if CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP is
enabled then CONFIG_CGROUP_MEM_RES_CTLR_SWAP_ENABLED is enabled as well)

we don't know yet that the two ACPI functions will always control the
radio, they may control only the leds on some hardware.

We may add rfkill switchs later.

e4fabad30e Documentation/development-process: use -next trees instead of staging
This is confusing, as we have "staging" trees for drivers/staging.  Call
them -next trees.

ebde7b062c Documentation/gpio.txt: explain poll/select usage
Add a bit more information how to use poll(2) on GPIO value files
correctly. For me it was not clear that I need to poll(2) for
POLLPRI|POLLERR or select(2) for exceptfds.

09c9feb946 Documentation: make configfs example code simpler, clearer
If "p" is NULL then it will cause an oops when we pass it to
simple_strtoul().  In this case "p" can not be NULL so I removed the
check.  I also changed the check a little to make it more explicit that
we are testing whether p points to the NUL char.

d67ef35fff clarify documentation for net.ipv4.igmp_max_memberships
This patch helps clarify documentation for
net.ipv4.igmp_max_memberships by providing a formula for
calculating the maximum number of multicast groups that can be
subscribed to, plus defining the theoretical limit.

fcc4a01eb8 USB: use the runtime-PM autosuspend implementation
This patch (as1428) converts USB over to the new runtime-PM core
autosuspend framework.  One slightly awkward aspect of the conversion
is that USB devices will now have two suspend-delay attributes: the
old power/autosuspend file and the new power/autosuspend_delay_ms
file.  One expresses the delay time in seconds and the other in
milliseconds, but otherwise they do the same thing.  The old attribute
can be deprecated and then removed eventually.

23308ba54d console: add /proc/consoles
It allows users to see what consoles are currently known to the system
and with what flags.

It is based on Werner's patch, the part about traversing fds was
removed, the code was moved to kernel/printk.c, where consoles are
handled and it makes more sense to me.
