      genirq: Sanitize spurious interrupt detection of threaded irqs · 1e77d0a1
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      Till reported that the spurious interrupt detection of threaded
      interrupts is broken in two ways:
      
      - note_interrupt() is called for each action thread of a shared
        interrupt line. That's wrong as we are only interested whether none
        of the device drivers felt responsible for the interrupt, but by
        calling multiple times for a single interrupt line we account
        IRQ_NONE even if one of the drivers felt responsible.
      
      - note_interrupt() when called from the thread handler is not
        serialized. That leaves the members of irq_desc which are used for
        the spurious detection unprotected.
      
      To solve this we need to defer the spurious detection of a threaded
      interrupt to the next hardware interrupt context where we have
      implicit serialization.
      
      If note_interrupt is called with action_ret == IRQ_WAKE_THREAD, we
      check whether the previous interrupt requested a deferred check. If
      not, we request a deferred check for the next hardware interrupt and
      return. 
      
      If set, we check whether one of the interrupt threads signaled
      success. Depending on this information we feed the result into the
      spurious detector.
      
      If one primary handler of a shared interrupt returns IRQ_HANDLED we
      disable the deferred check of irq threads on the same line, as we have
      found at least one device driver who cared.

      Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
       "This udpate delivers:
      
         - A fix for dynamic interrupt allocation on x86 which is required to
           exclude the GSI interrupts from the dynamic allocatable range.
      
           This was detected with the newfangled tablet SoCs which have GPIOs
           and therefor allocate a range of interrupts.  The MSI allocations
           already excluded the GSI range, so we never noticed before.
      
         - The last missing set_irq_affinity() repair, which was delayed due
           to testing issues
      
         - A few bug fixes for the armada SoC interrupt controller
      
         - A memory allocation fix for the TI crossbar interrupt controller

      tracing: Use rcu_dereference_sched() for trace event triggers · 561a4fe8
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      As trace event triggers are now part of the mainline kernel, I added
      my trace event trigger tests to my test suite I run on all my kernels.
      Now these tests get run under different config options, and one of
      those options is CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, which checks under lockdep that
      the rcu locking primitives are being used correctly. This triggered
      the following splat:

      The cause is that the triggers are protected by rcu_read_lock_sched() but
      the data is dereferenced with rcu_dereference() which expects it to
      be protected with rcu_read_lock(). The proper reference should be
      rcu_dereference_sched().

      Pull ACPI and power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
       "A bunch of regression fixes this time.  They fix two regressions in
        the PNP subsystem, one in the ACPI processor driver and one in the
        ACPI EC driver, four cpufreq driver regressions and an unrelated bug
        in one of the drivers.  The regressions are recent or introduced in
        3.14.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - There are two bugs in the ACPI PNP core that cause errors to be
           returned if optional ACPI methods are not present.  After an ACPI
           core change made in 3.14 one of those errors leads to serial port
           suspend failures on some systems.  Fix from Rafael J Wysocki.
      
         - A recently added PNP quirk related to Intel chipsets intorduced a
           build error in unusual configurations (PNP without PCI).  Fix from
           Bjorn Helgaas.
      
         - An ACPI EC workaround related to system suspend on Samsung machines
           added in 3.14 introduced a race causing some valid EC events to be
           discarded.  Fix from Kieran Clancy.
      
         - The acpi-cpufreq driver fails to load on some systems after a 3.14
           commit related to APIC ID parsing that overlooked one corner case.
           Fix from Lan Tianyu.
      
         - Fix for a recently introduced build problem in the ppc-corenet
           cpufreq driver from Tim Gardner.
      
         - A recent cpufreq core change to ensure serialization of frequency
           transitions for drivers with a ->target_index() callback overlooked
           the fact that some of those drivers had been doing operations
           introduced by it into the core already by themselves.  That
           resulted in a mess in which the core and the drivers try to do the
           same thing and block each other which leads to deadlocks.  Fixes
           for the powernow-k7, powernow-k6, and longhaul cpufreq drivers from
           Srivatsa S Bhat.
      
         - Fix for a computational error in the powernow-k6 cpufreq driver
           from Srivatsa S Bhat"

      Pull driver core deferred probe fix from Grant Likely:
       "Drivercore race condition fix (exposed by devicetree)
      
        This branch fixes a bug where a device can get stuck in the deferred

        for a long time, but new platform conversions to device tree have
        exposed it.  This patch is needed to get those platforms working.
      
        This was the pending bug fix I mentioned in my previous pull request.
        Normally this would go through Greg's tree seeing that it is a
