      Pull tty/serial fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here are a small number of small tty and serial fixes for some
  reported problems for the tty core, vt code, and some serial drivers.

  They include fixes for:

   - a buggy and obsolete vt font ioctl removal

   - 8250_mtk serial baudrate runtime warnings

   - imx serial earlycon build configuration fix

   - txx9 serial driver error path cleanup issues

   - tty core fix in release_tty that can be triggered by trying to bind
     an invalid serial port name to a speakup console device

  Almost all of these have been in linux-next without any problems, the
  only one that hasn't, just deletes code :)"

      current->group_leader->exit_signal may change during copy_process() if
current->real_parent exits.

Move the assignment inside tasklist_lock to avoid the race.

Further there was only one user ever.
- Android's loadfont, busybox and console-tools only ever use OP_GET
  and OP_SET
- fbset documentation only mentions the kernel cmdline font: option,
  not anything else.
- systemd used OP_COPY before release 232 published in Nov 2016

Now unfortunately the crucial report seems to have gone down with
gmane, and the commit message doesn't say much. But the pull request
hints at OP_COPY being broken

https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3651

So in other words, this never worked, and the only project which
foolishly every tried to use it, realized that rather quickly too.

Instead of trying to fix security issues here on dead code by adding
missing checks, fix the entire thing by removing the functionality.

Note that systemd code using the OP_COPY function ignored the return
value, so it doesn't matter what we're doing here really - just in
case a lone server somewhere happens to be extremely unlucky and
running an affected old version of systemd. The relevant code from
font_copy_to_all_vcs() in systemd was:

	/* copy font from active VT, where the font was uploaded to */
	cfo.op = KD_FONT_OP_COPY;
	cfo.height = vcs.v_active-1; /* tty1 == index 0 */
	(void) ioctl(vcfd, KDFONTOP, &cfo);

Note this just disables the ioctl, garbage collecting the now unused
callbacks is left for -next.

v2: Tetsuo found the old mail, which allowed me to find it on another
archive. Add the link too.

 - Fix some clumsy error handling when writeback fails on filesystems
   with blocksize < pagesize

   actually does permit that combination

 - Fix excessive page cache flushing when unsharing part of a file

  xfs: only flush the unshared range in xfs_reflink_unshare

      Merge procfs splice read fixes from Christoph Hellwig:
 "Greg reported a problem due to the fact that Android tests use procfs
  files to test splice, which stopped working with the changes for
  set_fs() removal.

  This series adds read_iter support for seq_file, and uses those for
  various proc files using seq_file to restore splice read support"

[ Side note: Christoph initially had a scripted "move everything over"
  patch, which looks fine, but I personally would prefer us to actively
  discourage splice() on random files.  So this does just the minimal
  basic core set of proc file op conversions.

  For completeness, and in case people care, that script was

     sed -i -e 's/\.proc_read\(\s*=\s*\)seq_read/\.proc_read_iter\1seq_read_iter/g'

  but I'll wait and see if somebody has a strong argument for using
  splice on random small /proc files before I'd run it on the whole
  kernel.   - Linus ]

* emailed patches from Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>:
  proc "seq files": switch to ->read_iter
  proc "single files": switch to ->read_iter
  proc/stat: switch to ->read_iter
  proc/cpuinfo: switch to ->read_iter
  proc: wire up generic_file_splice_read for iter ops
  seq_file: add seq_read_iter
