There's no reason to hold lockbuf_lock when entering
console_trylock_for_printk().
The first thing this function does is to call down_trylock(console_sem)
and if that fails it immediately unlocks lockbuf_lock. So lockbuf_lock
isn't needed for that branch. When down_trylock() succeeds, the rest of
console_trylock() is OK without lockbuf_lock (it is called without it
from other places), and the only remaining thing in
console_trylock_for_printk() is can_use_console() call. For that call
console_sem is enough (it iterates all consoles and checks CON_ANYTIME
flag).
So we drop logbuf_lock before entering console_trylock_for_printk() which
simplifies the code.

Comment about interesting interlocking between lockbuf_lock and
console_sem is outdated.
It was added in 2002 by commit a880f45a48be during conversion of
console_lock to console_sem + lockbuf_lock.
At that time release_console_sem() (today's equivalent is
console_unlock()) was indeed using lockbuf_lock to avoid races between
trylock on console_sem in printk() and unlock of console_sem. However
these days the interlocking is gone and the races are avoided by
rechecking logbuf state after releasing console_sem.

I wonder if anyone uses printk return value but it is there and should be
counted correctly.
This patch modifies log_store() to return the number of really stored
bytes from the 'text' part. Also it handles the return value in
vprintk_emit().
Note that log_store() is used also in cont_flush() but we could ignore the
return value there. The function works with characters that were already
counted earlier. In addition, the store could newer fail here because the
length of the printed text is limited by the "cont" buffer and "dict" is
NULL.

We might want to print at least part of too long messages and add some
warning for debugging purpose.
The question is how long the shrunken message should be. If we use the
whole buffer, it might get rotated too soon. Let's try to use only 1/4 of
the buffer for now.
Also shrink the whole dictionary. We do not want to parse it or break it
in the middle of some pair of values. It would not cause any real harm
but still.

We will want to recompute the message size when shrinking too long
messages. Let's put the code into separate function.
The side effect of setting "pad_len" is not nice but it is worth removing
the code duplication. Note that I will probably have one more usage for
this function when handling messages safe way in NMI context.
This patch does not change the existing behavior.

There was no check for too long messages. The check for free space always
passed when first_seq and next_seq were equal. Enough free space was not
guaranteed, though.
log_store() might be called to store messages up to 64kB + 64kB + 16B.
This is sum of maximal text_len, dict_len values, and the size of the
structure printk_log.
On the other hand, the minimal size for the main log buffer currently is
4kB and it is enforced only by Kconfig.
The good news is that the usage looks safe right now. log_store() is
called only from vprintk_emit() and cont_flush(). Here the "text" part is
always passed via a static buffer and the length is limited to
LOG_LINE_MAX which is 1024. The "dict" part is NULL in most cases. The
only exceptions is when vprintk_emit() is called from printk_emit() and
dev_vprintk_emit(). But printk_emit() is currently used only in
devkmsg_writev() and here "dict" is NULL as well. In dev_vprintk_emit(),
"dict" is limited by the static buffer "hdr" of the size 128 bytes. It
meas that the current maximal printed text is 1024B + 128B + 16B and it
always fit the log buffer.
But it is only matter of time when someone calls printk_emit() with unsafe
parameters, especially the "dict" one.
This patch adds a check for the free space when the buffer is empty. It
reuses the already existing log_has_space() function but it has to add an
extra parameter. It defines whether the buffer is empty. Note that the
same values of "first_idx" and "next_idx" might also mean that the buffer
is full.
If the buffer is empty, we must respect the current position of the
indexes. We cannot reset them to the beginning of the buffer. Otherwise,
the functions reading the buffer would get crazy.
The question is what to do when the message is too long. This patch uses
the easiest solution and just ignores the problematic message. Let's do
something better in a followup patch.

The check for free space in the log buffer always passes when "first_seq"
and "next_seq" are equal. In theory, it might cause writing outside of
the log buffer.
Fortunately, the current usage looks safe because the used "text" and
"dict" buffers are quite limited. See the second patch for more details.
Anyway, it is better to be on the safe side and add a check. An easy
solution is done in the 2nd patch and it is improved in the 4th patch.
5th patch fixes the computation of the printed message length.
1st and 3rd patches just do some code refactoring to make the other
patches easier.
This patch (of 5):
There will be needed some fixes in the check for free space. They will be
easier if the code is moved outside of the quite long log_store()
function.
This patch does not change the existing behavior.

Currently to allocate a page that should be charged to kmemcg (e.g.
threadinfo), we pass __GFP_KMEMCG flag to the page allocator. The page
allocated is then to be freed by free_memcg_kmem_pages. Apart from
looking asymmetrical, this also requires intrusion to the general
allocation path. So let's introduce separate functions that will
alloc/free pages charged to kmemcg.
The new functions are called alloc_kmem_pages and free_kmem_pages. They
should be used when the caller actually would like to use kmalloc, but
has to fall back to the page allocator for the allocation is large.
They only differ from alloc_pages and free_pages in that besides
allocating or freeing pages they also charge them to the kmem resource
counter of the current memory cgroup.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"ACPICA is the leader this time (63 commits), followed by cpufreq (28
commits), devfreq (15 commits), system suspend/hibernation (12
commits), ACPI video and ACPI device enumeration (10 commits each).
We have no major new features this time, but there are a few
significant changes of how things work. The most visible one will
probably be that we are now going to create platform devices rather
than PNP devices by default for ACPI device objects with _HID. That
was long overdue and will be really necessary to be able to use the
same drivers for the same hardware blocks on ACPI and DT-based systems
going forward. We're not expecting fallout from this one (as usual),
but it's something to watch nevertheless.
The second change having a chance to be visible is that ACPI video
will now default to using native backlight rather than the ACPI
backlight interface which should generally help systems with broken
Win8 BIOSes. We're hoping that all problems with the native backlight
handling that we had previously have been addressed and we are in a
good enough shape to flip the default, but this change should be easy
enough to revert if need be.
In addition to that, the system suspend core has a new mechanism to
allow runtime-suspended devices to stay suspended throughout system
suspend/resume transitions if some extra conditions are met
(generally, they are related to coordination within device hierarchy).
However, enabling this feature requires cooperation from the bus type
layer and for now it has only been implemented for the ACPI PM domain
(used by ACPI-enumerated platform devices mostly today).
Also, the acpidump utility that was previously shipped as a separate
tool will now be provided by the upstream ACPICA along with the rest
of ACPICA code, which will allow it to be more up to date and better
supported, and we have one new cpuidle driver (ARM clps711x).
The rest is improvements related to certain specific use cases,
cleanups and fixes all over the place.

If allocation of the max_buffer fails on boot up, the error path will
free both per_cpu data structures from the buffers. With the new redesign
of the code, those structures are freed if allocations failed. That is,
the helper function that allocates the buffers will free the per cpu data
on failure. No need to do it again. In fact, the second free will cause
a bug as the code can not handle a double free.

This patch finally allows us to get rid of the BPF_S_* enum.
Currently, the code performs unnecessary encode and decode
workarounds in seccomp and filter migration itself when a filter
is being attached in order to overcome BPF_S_* encoding which
is not used anymore by the new interpreter resp. JIT compilers.
Keeping it around would mean that also in future we would need
to extend and maintain this enum and related encoders/decoders.
We can get rid of all that and save us these operations during
filter attaching. Naturally, also JIT compilers need to be updated
by this.
Before JIT conversion is being done, each compiler checks if A
is being loaded at startup to obtain information if it needs to
emit instructions to clear A first. Since BPF extensions are a
subset of BPF_LD | BPF_{W,H,B} | BPF_ABS variants, case statements
for extensions can be removed at that point. To ease and minimalize
code changes in the classic JITs, we have introduced bpf_anc_helper().
Tested with test_bpf on x86_64 (JIT, int), s390x (JIT, int),
arm (JIT, int), i368 (int), ppc64 (JIT, int); for sparc we
unfortunately didn't have access, but changes are analogous to
the rest.
