There is a potential race condition between cpu_subsys_online() and either acpi_processor_remove() or remove_memory() that execute try_offline_node(). Namely, it is possible that cpu_subsys_online() will run right after the CPUs NUMA node has been put offline and cpu_to_node() executed by it will return NUMA_NO_NODE (-1). In that case the CPU is gone and it doesn't make sense to call cpu_up() for it, so make cpu_subsys_online() return -ENODEV then. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

attribute groups are much more flexible than just a list of attributes, due to their support for visibility of the attributes, and binary attributes. Add bus_groups to struct bus_type which should be used instead of bus_attrs. bus_attrs will be removed from the structure soon. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

Hanjun Guo authored
arch_provides_topology_pointers was introduced in commit 23ca4bba (x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v4) to indicate pointers to the topology cpumask_t maps are valid to avoid copying data on to/off of the stack. But later in commit fbd59a8d (cpumask: Use topology_core_cpumask()/ topology_thread_cpumask()), the pointers to the topology struct cpumask maps are always valid. After that commit, the only difference is that there is a redundant "unsigned int cpu = dev->id;" if arch_provides_topology_pointers defined, but dev->id is type 'u32' which devolves to 'unsigned int' on all supported arches. So this arch_provides_topology_pointers define is pointless and only cause obfuscation now, remove it. Tested on x86 machine, topology information in sys/devices/system/cpu/ cpuX/topology/ is the same after appling this patch set.

In order to do this in the "cleanest" way, some of the macros had to be changed to reflect the driver core format of naming show/store functions, which accounts for the majority of the churn in this file.

Pull qxl drm fixes from Dave Airlie: "Okay as I warned, the qxl driver was running a bit free and loose with its ttm object reservations and the new lockdep enabled reservation tracking shone a bright light into it, it also with the new reservations mutexes hits a possible deadlock during boot. The first patch is a real fix to render the console correctly as the driver used to just drop irq renderering as too hard, this also fixes a sleeping while atomic warning. The other two patches are the big ugly ones that redo how the driver allocates objects and reserves them and makes things all work properly, I've tested this in a VM, and compared to the current code which hits a lockdep warning and the sleep while atomic warning before failing. So sorry this is coming in late, I should have tested qxl before merging the mutex code, but I'd rather just fix qxl with this than revert the reservations code at this point" * 'qxl-fixes' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux: qxl: convert qxl driver to proper use for reservations qxl: allow creation of pre-pinned objects and use for releases. drm/qxl: add delayed fb operations

Rafael J. Wysocki authored
We attempted to address a regression introduced by commit a57f7f91 (ACPICA: Add Windows8/Server2012 string for _OSI method.) after which ACPI video backlight support doesn't work on a number of systems, because the relevant AML methods in the ACPI tables in their BIOSes become useless after the BIOS has been told that the OS is compatible with Windows 8. That problem is tracked by the bug entry at: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231 Commit 8c5bd7ad (ACPI / video / i915: No ACPI backlight if firmware expects Windows 8) introduced for this purpose essentially prevented the ACPI backlight support from being used if the BIOS had been told that the OS was compatible with Windows 8 and the i915 driver was loaded, in which case the backlight would always be handled by i915. Unfortunately, however, that turned out to cause problems with backlight to appear on multiple systems with symptoms indicating that i915 was unable to control the backlight on those systems as expected. For this reason, revert commit 8c5bd7ad, but leave the function acpi_video_backlight_quirks() introduced by it, because another commit on top of it uses that function.
