Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo: "This contains one important fix. The NUMA support added a while back broke ordering guarantees on ordered workqueues. It was enforced by having single frontend interface with @max_active == 1 but the NUMA support puts multiple interfaces on unbound workqueues on NUMA machines thus breaking the ordered guarantee.

Pull vfs dentry reference count fix from Al Viro. This fixes a possible inode_permission NULL pointer dereference (and other problems) that were due to the root dentry count being decremented too much. In commit 48a066e7 ("RCU'd vfsmounts") the placement of clearing the LOOKUP_RCU bit changed, and we then returned failure of incrementing the lockref on the parent dentry with LOOKUP_RCU cleared. But that meant we needed to go through the same cleanup routines that the later failures did wrt LOOKUP_ROOT and nd->root. * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: fix bogus path_put() of nd->root after some unlazy_walk() failures

PTE_PROT_NONE means that a pte is present but does not have any read/write attributes. However, setting the memory type like pgprot_writecombine() is allowed and such bits overlap with PTE_PROT_NONE. This causes mmap/munmap issues in drivers that change the vma->vm_pg_prot on PROT_NONE mappings. This patch reverts the PTE_FILE/PTE_PROT_NONE shift in commit 59911ca4 (ARM64: mm: Move PTE_PROT_NONE bit) and moves PTE_PROT_NONE together with the other software bits.

Failure to grab reference to parent dentry should go through the same cleanup as nd->seq mismatch. As it is, we might end up with caller thinking it needs to path_put() nd->root, with obvious nasty results once we'd hit that bug enough times to drive the refcount of root dentry all the way to zero...

Takashi Iwai authored
The current generic parser assumes blindly that the volume and mute amps are found in the aamix node itself. But on some codecs, typically Analog Devices ones, the aamix amps are separately implemented in each leaf node of the aamix node, and the current driver can't establish the correct amp controls. This is a regression compared with the previous static quirks. This patch extends the search for the amps to the leaf nodes for allowing the aamix controls again on such codecs. In this implementation, I didn't code to loop through the whole paths, since usually one depth should suffice, and we can't search too deeply, as it may result in the conflicting control assignments.

commit 566c09c5 raid5: relieve lock contention in get_active_stripe() modified the locking in get_active_stripe() reducing the range protected by the (highly contended) device_lock. Unfortunately it reduced the range too much opening up some races. One race can occur if get_priority_stripe runs between the test on sh->count and device_lock being taken. This will mean that sh->lru is not empty while get_active_stripe thinks ->count is zero resulting in a 'BUG' firing. Another race happens if __release_stripe is called immediately after sh->count is tested and found to be non-zero. If STRIPE_HANDLE is not set, get_active_stripe should increment ->active_stripes when it increments ->count from 0, but as it didn't think it was 0, it doesn't. Extending device_lock to cover the test on sh->count close these races. While we are here, fix the two BUG tests: -If count is zero, then lru really must not be empty, or we've lock the stripe_head somehow - no other tests are relevant. -STRIPE_ON_RELEASE_LIST is completely independent of ->lru so testing it is pointless.
