77514391ee Documentation/unicode.txt: convert it to ReST markup
Probably, unicode is something that we might remove from the
docs, as all modern systems support it. Yet, this chapter
is fun, as it mentions support for the Klington fictional
charset ;)

On the other hand, I bet all other OS user manuals
explicit mention unicode support.

So, convert it to ReST and include it at the user's book.

9ffc66941d This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
 possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
 (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
 thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
 
 At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
 how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.

 "Including:

   - nine bug fixes for stable. Some of these we found at the recent two

   - significant improvements in reconnection (e.g. if server or network
     crashes) especially when mounted with "persistenthandles" or to
     server which advertises Continuous Availability on the share.

   - a new mount option "idsfromsid" which improves POSIX compatibility
     in some cases (when winbind not configured e.g.) by better (and
     faster) fetching uid/gid from acl (when "cifsacl" mount option is
     enabled). NB: we are almost complete work on "cifsacl" (querying
     mode/uid/gid from ACL) for SMB3, but SMB3 support for cifsacl is
     not included in this set.

   - improved handling for SMB3 "credits" (even if server is buggy)

  Still working on two sets of changes:

   - cifsacl enablement for SMB3

   - cleanup of RFC1001 length calculation (so we can handle encryption
     and multichannel and RDMA)

  And a couple of new bugs were reported recently (unrelated to above)
  so will probably have another merge request next week"

f1a9622037 fs/super.c: don't fool lockdep in freeze_super() and thaw_super() paths
sb_wait_write()->percpu_rwsem_release() fools lockdep to avoid the
false-positives. Now that xfs was fixed by Dave's commit dbad7c9930
("xfs: stop holding ILOCK over filldir callbacks") we can remove it and
change freeze_super() and thaw_super() to run with s_writers.rw_sem locks
held; we add two trivial helpers for that, lockdep_sb_freeze_release()
and lockdep_sb_freeze_acquire().

xfstests-dev/check `grep -il freeze tests/*/???` does not trigger any
warning from lockdep.

89f39af129 fs/super.c: fix race between freeze_super() and thaw_super()
Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than
frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which
drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering.

In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before
it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the
unbalanced percpu_up_write(). Unfortunately lockdep can't detect this,
so this triggers misc BUG_ON()'s in kernel/rcu/sync.c.

655042cc14 overlayfs: Fix setting IOP_XATTR flag
ovl_fill_super calls ovl_new_inode to create a root inode for the new
superblock before initializing sb->s_xattr.  This wrongly causes
IOP_XATTR to be cleared in i_opflags of the new inode, causing SELinux
to log the following message:

  SELinux: (dev overlay, type overlay) has no xattr support

Fix this by initializing sb->s_xattr and similar fields before calling
ovl_new_inode.

ffecee4f24 iov_iter: kernel-doc import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector()
Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array
(typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy
from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the
fast path (i.e. few iovec elements).

The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used
the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between
the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are
for each function.
