      dm: fix various targets to dm_register_target after module __init resources created · 7e6358d2
      monty_pavel@sina.com authored
      A NULL pointer is seen if two concurrent "vgchange -ay -K <vg name>"
      processes race to load the dm-thin-pool module:

      The race results in a NULL pointer because:
      
      Process A (vgchange -ay -K):
       	a. send DM_LIST_VERSIONS_CMD ioctl;
       	b. pool_target not registered;
       	c. modprobe dm_thin_pool and wait until end.
      
      Process B (vgchange -ay -K):
       	a. send DM_LIST_VERSIONS_CMD ioctl;
       	b. pool_target registered;
       	c. table_load->dm_table_add_target->pool_ctr;
       	d. _new_mapping_cache is NULL and panic.
      Note:
       	1. process A and process B are two concurrent processes.
       	2. pool_target can be detected by process B but
       	_new_mapping_cache initialization has not ended.
      
      To fix dm-thin-pool, and other targets (cache, multipath, and snapshot)
      with the same problem, simply dm_register_target() after all resources
      created during module init (as labelled with __init) are finished.

      dm table: fix regression from improper dm_dev_internal.count refcount_t conversion · afc567a4
      Mike Snitzer authored
      Multiple refcounts are needed if the device was already added.  The
      micro-optimization of setting the refcount to 1 on first added (rather
      than fall thru to a common refcount_inc) lost sight of the fact that the
      refcount_inc is also needed for the case when the device already exists
      and the mode need not be upgraded.

      Pull RISC-V cleanups and ABI fixes from Palmer Dabbelt:
       "This contains a handful of small cleanups that are a result of
        feedback that didn't make it into our original patch set, either
        because the feedback hadn't been given yet, I missed the original
        emails, or we weren't ready to submit the changes yet.
      
        I've been maintaining the various cleanup patch sets I have as their
        own branches, which I then merged together and signed. Each merge
        commit has a short summary of the changes, and each branch is based on
        your latest tag (4.15-rc1, in this case). If this isn't the right way
        to do this then feel free to suggest something else, but it seems sane
        to me.
      
        Here's a short summary of the changes, roughly in order of how
        interesting they are.
      
         - libgcc.h has been moved from include/lib, where it's the only
           member, to include/linux. This is meant to avoid tab completion
           conflicts.
      
         - VDSO entries for clock_get/gettimeofday/getcpu have been added.
           These are simple syscalls now, but we want to let glibc use them
           from the start so we can make them faster later.
      
         - A VDSO entry for instruction cache flushing has been added so
           userspace can flush the instruction cache.
      
         - The VDSO symbol versions for __vdso_cmpxchg{32,64} have been
           removed, as those VDSO entries don't actually exist.
      
         - __io_writes has been corrected to respect the given type.
      
         - A new READ_ONCE in arch_spin_is_locked().
      
         - __test_and_op_bit_ord() is now actually ordered.
      
         - Various small fixes throughout the tree to enable allmodconfig to
           build cleanly.
      
         - Removal of some dead code in our atomic support headers.
      
         - Improvements to various comments in our atomic support headers"

      Introducing a new include/lib directory just for this file totally
      messes up tab completion for include/linux, which is highly annoying.
