  hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_remove
  virtio: disable multiport console support.
  virtio: console makes incorrect assumption about virtio API
  virtio: console: Fix early_put_chars usage
  MAINTAINERS: Put the virtio-console entry in correct alphabetical order

I don't claim to understand the tty layer, but it seems like hvc_open and
hvc_close should be balanced in their kref reference counting.

Right now we get a kref every call to hvc_open:

        if (hp->count++ > 0) {
                tty_kref_get(tty); <----- here
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hp->lock, flags);
                hvc_kick();
                return 0;
        } /* else count == 0 */

        tty->driver_data = hp;

        hp->tty = tty_kref_get(tty); <------ or here if hp->count was 0

But hvc_close has:

        tty_kref_get(tty);

        if (--hp->count == 0) {
...
                /* Put the ref obtained in hvc_open() */
                tty_kref_put(tty);
...
        }

        tty_kref_put(tty);

Since the outside kref get/put balance we only do a single kref_put when
count reaches 0.

The patch below changes things to call tty_kref_put once for every
hvc_close call, and with that my machine boots fine.

rwsems can be used with IRQs disabled, particularily in early boot
before IRQs are enabled.  Currently the spin_unlock_irq() usage in the
slow-patch will unconditionally enable interrupts and cause problems
since interrupts are not yet initialized or enabled.

This patch uses save/restore versions of IRQ spinlocks in the slowpath
to ensure interrupts are not unintentionally disabled.

to malfunction.

To fix this, make USER_DS the top of RAM instead of the top of the non-IO

address space.

Presently, memcg's FILE_MAPPED accounting has following race with
move_account (happens at rmdir()).

    increment page->mapcount (rmap.c)
    mem_cgroup_update_file_mapped()           move_account()
					      lock_page_cgroup()
					      check page_mapped() if
					      page_mapped(page)>1 {
						FILE_MAPPED -1 from old memcg
						FILE_MAPPED +1 to old memcg
					      }
					      .....
					      overwrite pc->mem_cgroup
					      unlock_page_cgroup()
    lock_page_cgroup()
    FILE_MAPPED + 1 to pc->mem_cgroup
    unlock_page_cgroup()

Then,
	old memcg (-1 file mapped)
	new memcg (+2 file mapped)

This happens because move_account see page_mapped() which is not guarded
by lock_page_cgroup().  This patch adds FILE_MAPPED flag to page_cgroup
and move account information based on it.  Now, all checks are synchronous
with lock_page_cgroup().

When we look into pagemap using page-types with option -p, the value of
pfn for hugepages looks wrong (see below.) This is because pte was
evaluated only once for one vma although it should be updated for each
hugepage.  This patch fixes it.

  $ page-types -p 3277 -Nl -b huge
  voffset   offset  len     flags
  7f21e8a00 11e400  1       ___U___________H_G________________

  7f21e8c00 11e400  1       ___U___________H_G________________
  7f21e8c01 11e401  1ff     ________________TG________________
               ^^^

One hugepage contains 1 head page and 511 tail pages in x86_64 and each
two lines represent each hugepage.  Voffset and offset mean virtual
address and physical address in the page unit, respectively.  The
different hugepages should not have the same offset value.

With this patch applied:

  $ page-types -p 3386 -Nl -b huge
  voffset   offset   len    flags
  7fec7a600 112c00   1      ___UD__________H_G________________
  7fec7a601 112c01   1ff    ________________TG________________
               ^^^
  7fec7a800 113200   1      ___UD__________H_G________________
  7fec7a801 113201   1ff    ________________TG________________
               ^^^
               OK

More info:

- This patch modifies walk_page_range()'s hugepage walker.  But the
  change only affects pagemap_read(), which is the only caller of hugepage
  callback.

- Without this patch, hugetlb_entry() callback is called per vma, that
  doesn't match the natural expectation from its name.

- With this patch, hugetlb_entry() is called per hugepte entry and the
  callback can become much simpler.

Commit 148f948b (vfs: Introduce new
helpers for syncing after writing to O_SYNC file or IS_SYNC inode) broke
the raw driver.

We now call through generic_file_aio_write -> generic_write_sync ->
vfs_fsync_range.  vfs_fsync_range has:

        if (!fop || !fop->fsync) {
                ret = -EINVAL;
                goto out;
        }

But drivers/char/raw.c doesn't set an fsync method.

We have two options: fix it or remove the raw driver completely.  I'm
happy to do either, the fact this has been broken for so long suggests it
is rarely used.

The patch below adds an fsync method to the raw driver.  My knowledge of
the block layer is pretty sketchy so this could do with a once over.

If we instead decide to remove the raw driver, this patch might still be
useful as a backport to 2.6.33 and 2.6.32.

Shaohua Li reported his tmpfs streaming I/O test can lead to make oom.
The test uses a 6G tmpfs in a system with 3G memory.  In the tmpfs, there
are 6 copies of kernel source and the test does kbuild for each copy.  His
investigation shows the test has a lot of rotated anon pages and quite few
file pages, so get_scan_ratio calculates percent[0] (i.e.  scanning
percent for anon) to be zero.  Actually the percent[0] shoule be a big
value, but our calculation round it to zero.

Although before commit 84b18490 ("vmscan: get_scan_ratio() cleanup") , we
have the same problem too.  But the old logic can rescue percent[0]==0
case only when priority==0.  It had hided the real issue.  I didn't think
merely streaming io can makes percent[0]==0 && priority==0 situation.  but
I was wrong.

So, definitely we have to fix such tmpfs streaming io issue.  but anyway I
revert the regression commit at first.

This reverts commit 84b18490.
