Pull last-minute ASoC fix from Mark Brown: "This patch backs out a change that came in during the merge window which selects a configuration for GPIO4 on pcm512x CODECs that may not be suitable for all systems using the device. Changes for v4.1 will make this properly configurable but for now it's safest to revert to the v3.19 behaviour and leave the pin configuration alone. Sorry for sending this direct at the last minute but due to the GPIO misuse it'd be really good to get it in the release and I'd not realised it hadn't been sent yet - between some travel, a job change and other non-urgent fixes coming in I'd lost track of the urgency.

Howard Mitchell authored
Currently GPIO4 is hardcoded to output the pll-lock signal. Unfortunately this is after the pll-out GPIO is configured which is selectable in the device tree. Therefore it is not possible to use GPIO4 for pll-out. Therefore this patch removes the configuration of GPIO4.

This reverts commit ecc19d17. It added a new warning to try to encourage driver writers to set the device capabities properly, but drivers haven't been updated and in the meantime it just generaters a scary message that users cannot actually do anything about. Warnings like these are appropriate if you actually expect to fix the code that causes them. They are not appropriate for releases.

Jan Engelhardt reports a strange oops with an invalid ->sense_buffer pointer in scsi_init_cmd_errh() with the blk-mq code. The sense_buffer pointer should have been initialized by the call to scsi_init_request() from blk_mq_init_rq_map(), but there seems to be some non-repeatable memory corruptor. This patch makes sure we initialize the whole struct request allocation (and the associated 'struct scsi_cmnd' for the SCSI case) to zero, by using __GFP_ZERO in the allocation. The old code initialized a couple of individual fields, leaving the rest undefined (although many of them are then initialized in later phases, like blk_mq_rq_ctx_init() etc. It's not entirely clear why this matters, but it's the rigth thing to do regardless, and with 4.0 imminent this is the defensive "let's just make sure everything is initialized properly" patch.

Mike Christie authored
This fixes a oops due to a double list add when adding a reject PDU for iscsit_allocate_iovecs allocation failures. The cmd has already been added to the conn_cmd_list in iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd, so this has us call iscsit_reject_cmd. Note that for ERL0 the reject PDU is not actually sent, so this patch is not completely tested. Just verified we do not oops. The problem is the add reject functions return -1 which is returned all the way up to iscsi_target_rx_thread which for ERL0 will drop the connection.

This is because flushda instruction only flush the cache if tag and line fields are matched. Change to use ldwio instruction (bypass cache) to load the instruction that causing trap.

Unlike most (all?) other copies from user space, kernel module loading is almost unlimited in size. So we do a potentially huge "copy_from_user()" when we copy the module data from user space to the kernel buffer, which can be a latency concern when preemption is disabled (or voluntary). Also, because 'copy_from_user()' clears the tail of the kernel buffer on failures, even a *failed* copy can end up wasting a lot of time. Normally neither of these are concerns in real life, but they do trigger when doing stress-testing with trinity. Running in a VM seems to add its own overheadm causing trinity module load testing to even trigger the watchdog. The simple fix is to just chunk up the module loading, so that it never tries to copy insanely big areas in one go. That bounds the latency, and also the amount of (unnecessarily, in this case) cleared memory for the failure case.
