      Revert "drm/i915: Use crtc_state->active in primary check_plane func" · 01e2d062
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      This reverts commit dec4f799.

Jörg Otte reports a NULL pointder dereference due to this commit, as
'crtc_state' very much can be NULL:

        crtc_state = state->base.state ?
                intel_atomic_get_crtc_state(state->base.state, intel_crtc) : NULL;

So the change to test 'crtc_state->base.active' cannot possibly be
correct as-is.

There may be some other minimal fix (like just checking crtc_state for
NULL), but I'm just reverting it now for the rc2 release, and people
like Daniel Vetter who actually know this code will figure out what the
right solution is in the longer term.

 "This update from the timer departement contains:

   - A series of patches which address a shortcoming in the tick
     broadcast code.

     If the broadcast device is not available or an hrtimer emulated
     broadcast device, some of the original assumptions lead to boot
     failures.  I rather plugged all of the corner cases instead of only
     addressing the issue reported, so the change got a little larger.

     Has been extensivly tested on x86 and arm.

   - Get rid of the last holdouts using do_posix_clock_monotonic_gettime()

   - A regression fix for the imx clocksource driver

   - An update to the new state callbacks mechanism for clockevents.

      Pull irq fix from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A single fix for a cpu hotplug race vs. interrupt descriptors:

  Prevent irq setup/teardown across the cpu starting/dying parts of cpu
  hotplug so that the starting/dying cpu has a stable view of the
  descriptor space.  This has been an issue for all architectures in the
  cpu dying phase, where interrupts are migrated away from the dying
  cpu.  In the starting phase its mostly a x86 issue vs the vector space

      freeing unlinked file indefinitely delayed · 75a6f82a
      Al Viro authored 
      	Normally opening a file, unlinking it and then closing will have
the inode freed upon close() (provided that it's not otherwise busy and
has no remaining links, of course).  However, there's one case where that
does *not* happen.  Namely, if you open it by fhandle with cold dcache,
then unlink() and close().

	In normal case you get d_delete() in unlink(2) notice that dentry
is busy and unhash it; on the final dput() it will be forcibly evicted from
dcache, triggering iput() and inode removal.  In this case, though, we end
up with *two* dentries - disconnected (created by open-by-fhandle) and
regular one (used by unlink()).  The latter will have its reference to inode
dropped just fine, but the former will not - it's considered hashed (it
is on the ->s_anon list), so it will stay around until the memory pressure
will finally do it in.  As the result, we have the final iput() delayed
indefinitely.  It's trivial to reproduce -

void flush_dcache(void)
{
        system("mount -o remount,rw /");
}

static char buf[20 * 1024 * 1024];

main()
{
        int fd;
        union {
                struct file_handle f;
                char buf[MAX_HANDLE_SZ];
        } x;
        int m;

        x.f.handle_bytes = sizeof(x);
        chdir("/root");
        mkdir("foo", 0700);
        fd = open("foo/bar", O_CREAT | O_RDWR, 0600);
        close(fd);
        name_to_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, "foo/bar", &x.f, &m, 0);
        flush_dcache();
        fd = open_by_handle_at(AT_FDCWD, &x.f, O_RDWR);
        unlink("foo/bar");
        write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf));
        system("df .");			/* 20Mb eaten */
        close(fd);
        system("df .");			/* should've freed those 20Mb */
        flush_dcache();
        system("df .");			/* should be the same as #2 */
}

will spit out something like
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 303843      1131 100% /
Filesystem     1K-blocks   Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/root         322023 283282     21692  93% /
- inode gets freed only when dentry is finally evicted (here we trigger
than by remount; normally it would've happened in response to memory
pressure hell knows when).
