      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

      RDMA/nes: Don't allow userspace QPs to use STag zero · c12e56ef
      Faisal Latif authored 
      STag zero is a special STag that allows consumers to access any bus
address without registering memory.  The nes driver unfortunately
allows STag zero to be used even with QPs created by unprivileged
userspace consumers, which means that any process with direct verbs
access to the nes device can read and write any memory accessible to
the underlying PCI device (usually any memory in the system).  Such
access is usually given for cluster software such as MPI to use, so
this is a local privilege escalation bug on most systems running this
driver.

The driver was using STag zero to receive the last streaming mode
data; to allow STag zero to be disabled for unprivileged QPs, the
driver now registers a special MR for this data.

      RDMA/nes: CM connection setup/teardown rework · 6492cdf3
      Faisal Latif authored 
      Major rework of CM connection setup/teardown.  We had a number of issues
with MPI applications not starting/terminating properly over time.
With these changes we were able to run longer on larger clusters.

* Remove memory allocation from nes_connect() and nes_cm_connect().
* Fix mini_cm_dec_refcnt_listen() when destroying listener.
* Remove unnecessary code from schedule_nes_timer() and nes_cm_timer_tick().
* Functionalize mini_cm_recv_pkt() and process_packet().
* Clean up cm_node->ref_count usage.
* Reuse skbs if available.

      RDMA/nes: Get rid of ring_doorbell parameter of nes_post_cqp_request() · 8294f297
      Roland Dreier authored 
      Every caller of nes_post_cqp_request() passed it NES_CQP_REQUEST_RING_DOORBELL,
so just remove that parameter and always ring the doorbell.

      RDMA/nes: Encapsulate logic nes_put_cqp_request() · 1ff66e8c
      Roland Dreier authored 
      The iw_nes driver repeats the logic

	if (atomic_dec_and_test(&cqp_request->refcount)) {
		if (cqp_request->dynamic) {
			kfree(cqp_request);
		} else {
			spin_lock_irqsave(&nesdev->cqp.lock, flags);
			list_add_tail(&cqp_request->list, &nesdev->cqp_avail_reqs);
			spin_unlock_irqrestore(&nesdev->cqp.lock, flags);
		}
	}

over and over.  Wrap this up in functions nes_free_cqp_request() and
nes_put_cqp_request() to simplify such code.

In addition to making the source smaller and more readable, this shrinks
the compiled code quite a bit:

      RDMA/nes: Fix off-by-one in nes_reg_user_mr() error path · 24797a34
      Roland Dreier authored 
      nes_reg_user_mr() should fail if page_count becomes >= 1024 * 512
rather than just testing for strict >, because page_count is
essentially used as an index into an array with 1024 * 512 entries, so
allowing the loop to continue with page_count == 1024 * 512 means that
memory after the end of the array is corrupted.  This leads to a crash
triggerable by a userspace application that requests registration of a
too-big region.

Also get rid of the call to pci_free_consistent() here to avoid
corrupting state with a double free, since the same memory will be
freed in the code jumped to at reg_user_mr_err.
