        The last bit was non-trivial, and there is some code movement and
        associated cleanup mixed in.  This was ready and was meant to go in
        last week but I missed the boat on Friday.  My only excuse is that I
        was waiting for an all clear from the testing and there were many
        other shiny things to distract me.
      
        Strictly speaking, handling the flatten case isn't a regression and
        could wait, so if you like we can try to pull the series apart, but

      Use rcu_dereference_raw() for accessing tp->files. Because the

      the read-side also has to use rcu_dereference_raw() with
      read memory barrier.

      tracing: Fix leaks of filter preds · 60705c89
      Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) authored
      Special preds are created when folding a series of preds that
      can be done in serial. These are allocated in an ops field of
      the pred structure. But they were never freed, causing memory
      leaks.
      
      This was discovered using the kmemleak checker:

      time: Revert ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK compile time optimizaitons · b4f711ee
      John Stultz authored
      Kay Sievers noted that the ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK config,
      which enables some minor compile time optimization to avoid
      uncessary code in mostly the suspend/resume path could cause
      problems for userland.
      
      In particular, the dependency for RTC_HCTOSYS on
      !ALWAYS_USE_PERSISTENT_CLOCK, which avoids setting the time
      twice and simplifies suspend/resume, has the side effect
      of causing the /sys/class/rtc/rtcN/hctosys flag to always be
      zero, and this flag is commonly used by udev to setup the
      /dev/rtc symlink to /dev/rtcN, which can cause pain for
      older applications.
      
      While the udev rules could use some work to be less fragile,
      breaking userland should strongly be avoided. Additionally
      the compile time optimizations are fairly minor, and the code
      being optimized is likely to be reworked in the future, so
      lets revert this change.

      timer: Don't reinitialize the cpu base lock during CPU_UP_PREPARE · 42a5cf46
      Tirupathi Reddy authored
      An inactive timer's base can refer to a offline cpu's base.
      
      In the current code, cpu_base's lock is blindly reinitialized each
      time a CPU is brought up. If a CPU is brought online during the period
      that another thread is trying to modify an inactive timer on that CPU
      with holding its timer base lock, then the lock will be reinitialized
      under its feet. This leads to following SPIN_BUG().
      
      <0> BUG: spinlock already unlocked on CPU#3, kworker/u:3/1466

      As an example, this particular crash occurred when CPU #3 is executing
      mod_timer() on an inactive timer whose base is refered to offlined CPU
      #2.  The code locked the timer_base corresponding to CPU #2. Before it
      could proceed, CPU #2 came online and reinitialized the spinlock
      corresponding to its base. Thus now CPU #3 held a lock which was
      reinitialized. When CPU #3 finally ended up unlocking the old cpu_base
      corresponding to CPU #2, we hit the above SPIN_BUG().
      
      CPU #0		CPU #3				       CPU #2
      ------		-------				       -------
      .....		 ......				      <Offline>
      		mod_timer()
      		 lock_timer_base
      		   spin_lock_irqsave(&base->lock)
      
      cpu_up(2)	 .....				        ......
      							init_timers_cpu()
      ....		 .....				    	spin_lock_init(&base->lock)
      .....		   spin_unlock_irqrestore(&base->lock)  ......
      		   <spin_bug>
      
      Allocation of per_cpu timer vector bases is done only once under
      "tvec_base_done[]" check. In the current code, spinlock_initialization
      of base->lock isn't under this check. When a CPU is up each time the
      base lock is reinitialized. Move base spinlock initialization under
      the check.

      The warning is that 'rdtp->dynticks' has an unexpected value, which roughly
      translates to - the calls to rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() were not
      made in the correct order, or otherwise messed up.
      
      And Bjørn's painstaking debugging indicated that this happens when the idle
      loop enters the poll mode. Looking at the poll function cpu_idle_poll(), and
      the implementation of trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle(), the problem becomes very clear:
      cpu_idle_poll() lacks calls to rcu_idle_enter/exit(), and trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle()
      calls them in the reverse order - first rcu_idle_exit(), and then rcu_idle_enter().
      Hence the even/odd alternative sequencing of rdtp->dynticks goes for a toss.
      
      And powertop readily triggers this because powertop uses the idle-tracing
      infrastructure extensively.
      
      So, to fix this, wrap the code in cpu_idle_poll() within rcu_idle_enter/exit(),
      so that it blends properly with the calls inside trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle() and
      thus get the function ordering right.

      tick: Don't invoke tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() if the cpu is offline · f7ea0fd6
      Thomas Gleixner authored
      commit 5b39939a (nohz: Move ts->idle_calls incrementation into strict
      idle logic) moved code out of tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() and missed
      to bail out when the cpu is offline. That's causing subsequent
      failures as an offline CPU is supposed to die and not to fiddle with
      nohz magic.
      
      Return false in can_stop_idle_tick() if the cpu is offline.

      powerpc/perf: Fix setting of "to" addresses for BHRB · 69123184
      Michael Neuling authored
      Currently we only set the "to" address in the branch stack when the CPU
      explicitly gives us a value.  Unfortunately it only does this for XL form
      branches (eg blr, bctr, bctar) and not I and B form branches (eg b, bc).
      
      Fortunately if we read the instruction from memory we can extract the offset of
      a branch and calculate the target address.
      
      This adds a function power_pmu_bhrb_to() to calculate the target/to address of
      the corresponding I and B form branches.  It handles branches in both user and
      kernel spaces.  It also plumbs this into the perf brhb reading code.
