      PM / QoS: CPU C-state breakage with PM Qos change · d020283d
      Venkatesh Pallipadi authored
      Looks like change "PM QoS: Move and rename the implementation files"
      merged during the 3.2 development cycle made PM QoS depend on
      CONFIG_PM which depends on (PM_SLEEP || PM_RUNTIME).
      
      That breaks CPU C-states with kernels not having these CONFIGs, causing CPUs
      to spend time in Polling loop idle instead of going into deep C-states,
      consuming way way more power. This is with either acpi idle or intel idle
      enabled.
      
      Either CONFIG_PM should be enabled with any pm_qos users or
      the !CONFIG_PM pm_qos_request() should return sane defaults not to break
      the existing users. Here's is the patch for the latter option.
      
      [rjw: Modified the changelog slightly.]

      PM / Freezer: Thaw only kernel threads if freezing of kernel threads fails · 379e0be8
      Srivatsa S. Bhat authored
      If freezing of kernel threads fails, we are expected to automatically
      thaw tasks in the error recovery path. However, at times, we encounter
      situations in which we would like the automatic error recovery path
      to thaw only the kernel threads, because we want to be able to do
      some more cleanup before we thaw userspace. Something like:
      
      error = freeze_kernel_threads();
      if (error) {
      	/* Do some cleanup */
      
      	/* Only then thaw userspace tasks*/
      	thaw_processes();
      }
      
      An example of such a situation is where we freeze/thaw filesystems
      during suspend/hibernation. There, if freezing of kernel threads
      fails, we would like to thaw the frozen filesystems before thawing
      the userspace tasks.
      
      So, modify freeze_kernel_threads() to thaw only kernel threads in
      case of freezing failure. And change suspend_freeze_processes()
      accordingly. (At the same time, let us also get rid of the rather
      cryptic usage of the conditional operator (:?) in that function.)
      
      [rjw: In fact, this patch fixes a regression introduced during the
       3.3 merge window, because without it thaw_processes() may be called
       before swsusp_free() in some situations and that may lead to massive
       memory allocation failures.]

      There are few important bug fixes for LogFS
      
      * tag 'for-linus' of git://github.com/prasad-joshi/logfs_upstream:
        Logfs: Allow NULL block_isbad() methods
        logfs: Grow inode in delete path
        logfs: Free areas before calling generic_shutdown_super()
        logfs: remove useless BUG_ON
        MAINTAINERS: Add Prasad Joshi in LogFS maintiners
        logfs: Propagate page parameter to __logfs_write_inode
        logfs: set superblock shutdown flag after generic sb shutdown
        logfs: take write mutex lock during fsync and sync
        logfs: Prevent memory corruption
        logfs: update page reference count for pined pages
      
      Fix up conflict in fs/logfs/dev_mtd.c due to semantic change in what
      "mtd->block_isbad" means in commit f2933e86: "Logfs: Allow NULL
      block_isbad() methods" clashing with the abstraction changes in the
      commits 7086c19d: "mtd: introduce mtd_block_isbad interface" and
      d58b27ed: "logfs: do not use 'mtd->block_isbad' directly".
      
      This resolution takes the semantics from commit f2933e86, and just
      makes mtd_block_isbad() return zero (false) if the 'block_isbad'
      function is NULL.  But that also means that now "mtd_can_have_bb()"
      always returns 0.
      
      Now, "mtd_block_markbad()" will obviously return an error if the
      low-level driver doesn't support bad blocks, so this is somewhat
      non-symmetric, but it actually makes sense if a NULL "block_isbad"
      function is considered to mean "I assume that all my blocks are always
      good".

      arm-soc fixes for 3.3-rc:
      
      AT91 needed reset fixes which resulted in some minor code refactoring,
      it also adds a feature-removal for one of their platforms for 3.4.
      The USB patches have been acked by Greg K-H.
      
      i.MX and ux500 both have some minor fixes, nothing controversial.

      Not all mtd drivers define block_isbad().  Let's assume no bad blocks
      instead of refusing to mount.
