Change existing triggers backlight, gpio, and heartbeat to use the new ->activated flag to set activate successful status in their activate routines and check it in their deactivate routines to do cleanup.

Add a new field to led_classdev to save activattion state after activate routine is successful. This saved state is used in deactivate routine to do cleanup such as removing device files, and free memory allocated during activation. Currently trigger_data not being null is used for this purpose. Existing triggers will need changes to use this new field.

The advantage of kcalloc is that will prevent integer overflows which could result from the multiplication of number of elements and size and it is also a bit nicer to read.

led-class.c and ledtrig-timer.c still use simple_strtoul(). Change them to use kstrtoul() instead of obsolete simple_strtoul(). Also fix the existing int ret declaration to be ssize_t to match the return type for _store functions in ledtrig-timer.c.

This patchset adds early fb blank feature that a callback of lcd panel driver is called prior to specific fb driver's one. In the case of MIPI-DSI based video mode LCD Panel, for lcd power off, the power off commands should be transferred to lcd panel with display and mipi-dsi controller enabled because the commands is set to lcd panel at vsync porch period. and in opposite case, the callback of fb driver should be called prior to lcd panel driver's one because of same issue. Also if fb_blank mode is changed to FB_BLANK_POWERDOWN then display controller would be off(clock disable) but lcd panel would be still on. at this time, you could see some issue like sparkling on lcd panel because video clock to be delivered to ldi module of lcd panel was disabled. this issue could occurs for all lcd panels. The callback order is as the following: at fb_blank function of fbmem.c -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) -> lcd panel driver's early_set_power() -> info->fbops->fb_blank() -> spcefic fb driver's fb_blank() -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_BLANK) -> lcd panel driver's set_power() -> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) if info->fops->fb_blank() was failed. fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_R_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK) would be called to revert the effects of previous FB_EARLY_EVENT_BLANK call. and note that if early_set_power() of lcd_ops is NULL then early fb blank callback would be ignored. This patch: Add early_set_power and r_early_set_power callbacks. early_set_power callback is called prior to fb_blank() of fbmem.c and r_early_set_power callback is called if fb_blank() was failed to revert the effects of the early_set_power call of lcd panel driver.

We call the destroy function when a cgroup starts to be removed, such as by a rmdir event. However, because of our reference counters, some objects are still inflight. Right now, we are decrementing the static_keys at destroy() time, meaning that if we get rid of the last static_key reference, some objects will still have charges, but the code to properly uncharge them won't be run. This becomes a problem specially if it is ever enabled again, because now new charges will be added to the staled charges making keeping it pretty much impossible. We just need to be careful with the static branch activation: since there is no particular preferred order of their activation, we need to make sure that we only start using it after all call sites are active. This is achieved by having a per-memcg flag that is only updated after static_key_slow_inc() returns. At this time, we are sure all sites are active. This is made per-memcg, not global, for a reason: it also has the effect of making socket accounting more consistent. The first memcg to be limited will trigger static_key() activation, therefore, accounting. But all the others will then be accounted no matter what. After this patch, only limited memcgs will have its sockets accounted.

Right now we free struct memcg with kfree right after a rcu grace period, but defer it if we need to use vfree() to get rid of that memory area. We do that by need, because we need vfree to be called in a process context. This patch unifies this behavior, by ensuring that even kfree will happen in a separate thread. The goal is to have a stable place to call the upcoming jump label destruction function outside the realm of the complicated and quite far-reaching cgroup lock (that can't be held when holding either the cpu_hotplug.lock or jump_label_mutex) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak comment] Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Acked-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
