       "We've got nine patches this time:
      
         - Abhi Das has two patches that fix a GFS2 splice issue (and an
           adjustment).
      
         - Ben Marzinski has a patch which allows the proper unmount of a GFS2
           file system after hitting a withdraw error.
      
         - I have a patch to fix a problem where GFS2 would dereference an
           error value, plus three cosmetic / refactoring patches.
      
         - Daniel DeFreez has a patch to fix two glock reference count
           problems, where GFS2 was not properly "uninitializing" its glock
           holder on error paths.
      
         - Denys Vlasenko has a patch to change a function to not be inlined,
           thus reducing the memory footprint of the GFS2 module"

      Pull devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
      
       - Rewrite of the unflattening code to avoid recursion and lessen the
         stack usage.
      
       - Rewrite of the phandle args parsing code to get rid of the fixed args
         size.  This is needed for IOMMU code.
      
       - Sync to latest dtc which adds more dts style checking.  These
         warnings are enabled with "W=1" compiles.
      
       - Tegra documentation updates related to the above warnings.

      irqchip: nps: add 64BIT dependency · ffd565e3
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      The newly added nps irqchip driver causes build warnings on ARM64.
      
        include/soc/nps/common.h: In function 'nps_host_reg_non_cl':
        include/soc/nps/common.h:148:9: warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]
      
      As the driver is only used on ARC, we don't need to see it without
      COMPILE_TEST elsewhere, and we can avoid the warnings by only building
      on 32-bit architectures even with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST.

      cifs: Create dedicated keyring for spnego operations · b74cb9a8
      Sachin Prabhu authored
      The session key is the default keyring set for request_key operations.
      This session key is revoked when the user owning the session logs out.
      Any long running daemon processes started by this session ends up with
      revoked session keyring which prevents these processes from using the
      request_key mechanism from obtaining the krb5 keys.
      
      The problem has been reported by a large number of autofs users. The
      problem is also seen with multiuser mounts where the share may be used
      by processes run by a user who has since logged out. A reproducer using
      automount is available on the Red Hat bz.
      
      The patch creates a new keyring which is used to cache cifs spnego
      upcalls.

      mm, page_alloc: restore the original nodemask if the fast path allocation failed · 4741526b
      Mel Gorman authored
      The page allocator fast path uses either the requested nodemask or
      cpuset_current_mems_allowed if cpusets are enabled.  If the allocation
      context allows watermarks to be ignored then it can also ignore memory
      policies.  However, on entering the allocator slowpath the nodemask may
      still be cpuset_current_mems_allowed and the policies are enforced.
      This patch resets the nodemask appropriately before entering the
      slowpath.

      Vlastimil Babka authored
      Bad pages should be rare so the code handling them doesn't need to be
      inline for performance reasons.  Put it to separate function which
      returns void.  This also assumes that the initial page_expected_state()
      result will match the result of the thorough check, i.e.  the page
      doesn't become "good" in the meanwhile.  This matches the same
      expectations already in place in free_pages_check().

      mm, page_alloc: don't duplicate code in free_pcp_prepare · e2769dbd
      Mel Gorman authored
      The new free_pcp_prepare() function shares a lot of code with
      free_pages_prepare(), which makes this a maintenance risk when some
      future patch modifies only one of them.  We should be able to achieve
      the same effect (skipping free_pages_check() from !DEBUG_VM configs) by
      adding a parameter to free_pages_prepare() and making it inline, so the
      checks (and the order != 0 parts) are eliminated from the call from
      free_pcp_prepare().
      
      !DEBUG_VM: bloat-o-meter reports no difference, as my gcc was already
      inlining free_pages_prepare() and the elimination seems to work as
      expected
      
      DEBUG_VM bloat-o-meter:
      
        add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 2/0 up/down: 1035/-778 (257)

        free_pages_prepare                           778       -    -778
      
      Here inlining didn't occur before, and added some code, but it's ok for
      a debug option.

      mm, page_alloc: defer debugging checks of pages allocated from the PCP · 479f854a
      Mel Gorman authored
      Every page allocated checks a number of page fields for validity.  This
      catches corruption bugs of pages that are already freed but it is
      expensive.  This patch weakens the debugging check by checking PCP pages
      only when the PCP lists are being refilled.  All compound pages are
      checked.  This potentially avoids debugging checks entirely if the PCP
      lists are never emptied and refilled so some corruption issues may be
      missed.  Full checking requires DEBUG_VM.
      
      With the two deferred debugging patches applied, the impact to a page

      cpuset: use static key better and convert to new API · 002f2906
      Vlastimil Babka authored
      An important function for cpusets is cpuset_node_allowed(), which
      optimizes on the fact if there's a single root CPU set, it must be
      trivially allowed.  But the check "nr_cpusets() <= 1" doesn't use the
      cpusets_enabled_key static key the right way where static keys eliminate
      branching overhead with jump labels.
      
      This patch converts it so that static key is used properly.  It's also
      switched to the new static key API and the checking functions are
      converted to return bool instead of int.  We also provide a new variant
      __cpuset_zone_allowed() which expects that the static key check was
      already done and they key was enabled.  This is needed for
      get_page_from_freelist() where we want to also avoid the relatively
      slower check when ALLOC_CPUSET is not set in alloc_flags.
      
      The impact on the page allocator microbenchmark is less than expected
      but the cleanup in itself is worthwhile.

      the page free paths.  This patch uses an inlined version that is faster.

      Mel Gorman authored
      Check without side-effects should be easier to maintain.  It also
      removes the duplicated cpupid and flags reset done in !DEBUG_VM variant
      of both free_pcp_prepare() and then bulkfree_pcp_prepare().  Finally, it
      enables the next patch.
      
      It shouldn't result in new branches, thanks to inlining of the check.

      This is also slightly faster because cpupid information is not set on
      tail pages so we can avoid resets there.

      mm, page_alloc: check multiple page fields with a single branch · 7bfec6f4
      Mel Gorman authored
      Every page allocated or freed is checked for sanity to avoid corruptions
      that are difficult to detect later.  A bad page could be due to a number
      of fields.  Instead of using multiple branches, this patch combines
      multiple fields into a single branch.  A detailed check is only
      necessary if that check fails.

      Again, the benefit is marginal but avoiding excessive branches is
      important.  Ideally the paths would not have to check these conditions
      at all but regrettably abandoning the tests would make use-after-free
      bugs much harder to detect.

      mm, page_alloc: shortcut watermark checks for order-0 pages · 48ee5f36
      Mel Gorman authored
      Watermarks have to be checked on every allocation including the number
      of pages being allocated and whether reserves can be accessed.  The
      reserves only matter if memory is limited and the free_pages adjustment
      only applies to high-order pages.  This patch adds a shortcut for
      order-0 pages that avoids numerous calculations if there is plenty of
      free memory yielding the following performance difference in a page

      mm, page_alloc: reduce cost of fair zone allocation policy retry · 30534755
      Mel Gorman authored
      The fair zone allocation policy is not without cost but it can be
      reduced slightly.  This patch removes an unnecessary local variable,
      checks the likely conditions of the fair zone policy first, uses a bool
      instead of a flags check and falls through when a remote node is
      encountered instead of doing a full restart.  The benefit is marginal
      but it's there

      The benefit is marginal at best but one of the most important benefits,
      avoiding a second search when falling back to another node is not
      triggered by this particular test so the benefit for some corner cases
      is understated.

      alloc_flags is a bitmask of flags but it is signed which does not

      without an impact, it makes more sense that this be unsigned.

      associated with a memory section or a zone but the zone is looked up
