Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
 "A lot of activities on the cgroup front.  Most changes aren't visible
  to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the
  planned unified hierarchy.

   - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css
     (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's.  Because controllers
     (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled
     and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup
     and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of
     a cgroup.  Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup
     was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed.

     Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup
     core and controllers.  These assumptions are gradually removed,
     which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is
     completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path.  Note that
     decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these
     changes and the patchset is pending for the next window.

   - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is
     only used by memcg.  It is overly complex trying to achieve high
     flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best.  Going forward,
     new events will simply generate file modified event and the
     existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.  This pull
     request contains prepatory patches for such change.

   - Various fixes and cleanups"

   - Queued TRIM support, which enables sending TRIM to the device

Pull first batch of s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
 "The most interesting change is that Martin converted s390 to generic
  hardirqs.  Which means that all current architectures have been
  converted and that CONFIG_GENERIC_HARDIRQS can be removed.  Martin
  prepared a patch for that already (see genirq branch), but the best
  time to merge that is probably at the end of the merge window / begin
  of -rc1.

  Another patch converts s390 to software referenced bits instead of
  relying on the reference bit in the storage key.  Therefore s390
  doesn't use storage keys anymore, except for kvm.

  Besides that we have improvements, cleanups and fixes in PCI, DASD and
  all over the place."

The check if the queue is full and adding current to the wait queue of
pending msgsnd() operations (ss_add()) must be atomic.

Otherwise:
 - the thread that performs msgsnd() finds a full queue and decides to
   sleep.
 - the thread that performs msgrcv() first reads all messages from the
   queue and then sleeps, because the queue is empty.
 - the msgrcv() calls do not perform any wakeups, because the msgsnd()
   task has not yet called ss_add().
 - then the msgsnd()-thread first calls ss_add() and then sleeps.

Net result: msgsnd() and msgrcv() both sleep forever.

Observed with msgctl08 from ltp with a preemptible kernel.

Fix: Call ipc_lock_object() before performing the check.

The patch also moves security_msg_queue_msgsnd() under ipc_lock_object:
 - msgctl(IPC_SET) explicitely mentions that it tries to expunge any
   pending operations that are not allowed anymore with the new
   permissions.  If security_msg_queue_msgsnd() is called without locks,
   then there might be races.
 - it makes the patch much simpler.

 "Not much exciting going on with the regulator API this time around,
  lots of driver fixes and enhancements - the main thing is the addition
  of a new API to help make the stubbing code do the right thing for

  Highlights:

   - A new regulator_get_optional() API call for regulators that can be
     absent in normal operation.  This currently does nothing but will
     be used to improve the stubbing code for unspecified regulators,
     helping avoid some of the issues we've seen with adding new
     regulator support.
   - Helpers for devices with multiple linear ranges of voltages in the
     same regulator.
   - Moved the helpers into a separate file since core.c is getting
     rather large.

Merge lockref infrastructure code by me and Waiman Long.

I already merged some of the preparatory patches that didn't actually do
any semantic changes earlier, but this merges the actual _reason_ for
those preparatory patches.

The "lockref" structure is a combination "spinlock and reference count"
that allows optimized reference count accesses.  In particular, it
guarantees that the reference count will be updated AS IF the spinlock
was held, but using atomic accesses that cover both the reference count
and the spinlock words, we can often do the update without actually
having to take the lock.

This allows us to avoid the nastiest cases of spinlock contention on
large machines under heavy pathname lookup loads.  When updating the
dentry reference counts on a large system, we'll still end up with the
cache line bouncing around, but that's much less noticeable than
actually having to spin waiting for the lock.

* lockref:
  lockref: implement lockless reference count updates using cmpxchg()
  lockref: uninline lockref helper functions
  vfs: reimplement d_rcu_to_refcount() using lockref_get_or_lock()
  vfs: use lockref_get_not_zero() for optimistic lockless dget_parent()
  lockref: add 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper

A race condition may happen if two threads are both trying to open the same sg
with O_EXCL simultaneously. It's possible that they both find fsds list is
empty and get_exclude(sdp) returns 0, then they both call set_exclude() and
break out from wait_event_interruptible and resume open.

Now use rwsem to protect this process. Exclusive open gets write lock and
others get read lock. The lock will be held until file descriptor is closed.
This also leads 'exclude' only a status rather than a check mark.

Commit b90ebc3d ("[SCSI] scsi_debug:
fix logical block provisioning support") fixed several issues with
logical block provisioning support, but it still doesn't properly fix
the cases when unmap_alignment > 0.

For example, load scsi_debug module with the following module parameters
and make all blocks mapped by filling the storage with zero.

        # modprobe scsi_debug lbpu=1 unmap_alignment=1 unmap_granularity=4
        # dd if=/dev/zero of=$DEV

Then, try to unmap the first unmappable blocks at lba=1, but GET LBA STATUS
unexpectedly reports that the last UNMAP has done nothing.

        # sg_unmap --lba=1 --num=4 $DEV
        # sg_get_lba_status --lba=1 $DEV
        descriptor LBA: 0x0000000000000001  blocks: 16383  mapped

The problem is in map_index_to_lba(), which should return the first
LBA which is corresponding to a given index of provisioning map
(map_storep).
