Before this patch, if a process called function gfs2_log_reserve to
reserve some journal blocks, but the journal not enough blocks were
free, it would call io_schedule. However, in the log flush daemon,
it woke up the waiters only if an gfs2_ail_flush was no longer
required. This resulted in situations where processes would wait
forever because the number of blocks required was so high that it
pushed the journal into a perpetual state of flush being required.
This patch changes the logd daemon so that it wakes up io waiters
every time the log is actually flushed.

Before this patch, the logd daemon only tried to flush things when
the log blocks pinned exceeded a certain threshold. But when we're
deleting very large files, it may require a huge number of journal
blocks, and that, in turn, may exceed the threshold. This patch
factors that into account.

This patch limits the number of transaction blocks requested during
file truncates. If we have very large multi-terabyte files, and want
to delete or truncate them, they might span so many resource groups
that we overflow the journal blocks, and cause an assert failure.
By limiting the number of blocks in the transaction, we prevent this
overflow and give other running processes time to do transactions.
The limiting factor I chose is sd_log_thresh2 which is currently
set to 4/5ths of the journal. This same ratio is used in function
gfs2_ail_flush_reqd to determine when a log flush is required.
If we make the maximum value less than this, we can get into a
infinite hang whereby the log stops moving because the number of
used blocks is less than the threshold and the iterative loop
needs more, but since we're under the threshold, the log daemon
never starts any IO on the log.

During a new file creation we need to make sure new file is created with the
right label. New file is created in upper/ so effectively file should get
label as if task had created file in upper/.
We switched to mounter's creds for actual file creation. Also if there is a
whiteout present, then file will be created in work/ dir first and then
renamed in upper. In none of the cases file will be labeled as we want it to
be.
This patch introduces a new hook dentry_create_files_as(), which determines
the label/context dentry will get if it had been created by task in upper
and modify passed set of creds appropriately. Caller makes use of these new
creds for file creation.

Commit 39b0555f didn't check for a failing bio_add_page in
gfs2_submit_bhs. This could cause I/O requests to get lost, and the
affected buffer heads to stay locked forever. Fix that by submitting
the current bio and allocating another one when bio_add_page fails. (It
is guaranteed that we can at least add one page to a bio.)

Unlike what its documentation suggests, the releasepage address space
operation can currently be called on dirty pages via shrink_active_list.
This may eventually be changed when the remaining code relying on the
current behavior has been fixed, but until then, it makes no sense to
warn on dirty buffers in gfs2_releasepage.

On busy container servers reading /proc/locks shows all the locks
created by all clients. This can cause large latency spikes. In my
case I observed lsof taking up to 5-10 seconds while processing around
50k locks. Fix this by limiting the locks shown only to those created
in the same pidns as the one the proc fs was mounted in. When reading
/proc/locks from the init_pid_ns proc instance then perform no
filtering

In 99.99% of the cases only root in a user namespace can mount /dev/pts
and in those cases the owner of /dev/pts/ptmx will remain root.root
In the oddball case where someone else has CAP_SYS_ADMIN this code
modifies the /dev/pts mount code to use current_fsuid and current_fsgid
as the values to use when creating the /dev/ptmx inode. As is done
when any other file is created.
This is a code simplification, and it allows running without a root
user entirely.

This patch introduces an accessor which can be used
by the users of debugfs (drivers, fs, ...) to get the
original file_operations struct. It also removes the
REAL_FOPS_DEREF macro in file.c and converts the code
to use the public version.
Previously, REAL_FOPS_DEREF was only available within
the file.c of debugfs. But having a public getter
available for debugfs users is important as some
drivers (carl9170 and b43) use the pointer of the
original file_operations in conjunction with container_of()
within their debugfs implementations.

debugfs_create_file_unsafe() is declared twice in exactly the same
manner each: once in fs/debugfs/internal.h and once in
include/linux/debugfs.h
All files that include the former also include the latter and thus,
the declaration in fs/debugfs/internal.h is superfluous.
Remove it.

I wish I could also kill PRSTATUS_SIZE nicely.

Pull low-level x86 updates from Ingo Molnar:
"In this cycle this topic tree has become one of those 'super topics'
that accumulated a lot of changes:
- Add CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y support to the core kernel and enable it on
x86 - preceded by an array of changes. v4.8 saw preparatory changes
in this area already - this is the rest of the work. Includes the
thread stack caching performance optimization. (Andy Lutomirski)
- switch_to() cleanups and all around enhancements. (Brian Gerst)
- A large number of dumpstack infrastructure enhancements and an
unwinder abstraction. The secret long term plan is safe(r) live
patching plus maybe another attempt at debuginfo based unwinding -
but all these current bits are standalone enhancements in a frame
pointer based debug environment as well. (Josh Poimboeuf)
- More __ro_after_init and const annotations. (Kees Cook)
- Enable KASLR for the vmemmap memory region. (Thomas Garnier)"

x86-specific per se, even if they are only used on x86 right now. ]

When printing call return addresses found on a stack, /proc/<pid>/stack
can sometimes give a confusing result. If the call instruction was the
last instruction in the function (which can happen when calling a
noreturn function), '%pS' will incorrectly display the name of the
function which happens to be next in the object code, rather than the
name of the actual calling function.
Use '%pB' instead, which was created for this exact purpose.

Replace the global part of the lglock with a percpu-rwsem.
Since fcl_lock is a spinlock and itself nests under i_lock, which too
is a spinlock we cannot acquire sleeping locks at
locks_{insert,remove}_global_locks().
We can however wrap all fcl_lock acquisitions with percpu_down_read
such that all invocations of locks_{insert,remove}_global_locks() have
that read lock held.
This allows us to replace the lg_global part of the lglock with the
write side of the rwsem.
In the absense of writers, percpu_{down,up}_read() are free of atomic
instructions. This further avoids the very long preempt-disable
regions caused by lglock on larger machines.

- Add ARM support for the EFI ESRT driver. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Make the EFI runtime services and efivar API interruptible by
swapping spinlocks for semaphores. (Sylvain Chouleur)
- Provide the EFI identity mapping for kexec which allows kexec to

line parameter. (Alex Thorlton)
- Add debugfs node to dump EFI page tables on arm64. (Ard Biesheuvel)

the FWTS project. (Ivan Hu)
- Expand the list of flags for classifying EFI regions as "RAM" on
arm64 so we align with the UEFI spec. (Ard Biesheuvel)
- Optimise out the EFI mixed mode if it's unsupported (CONFIG_X86_32)
or disabled (CONFIG_EFI_MIXED=n) and switch the early EFI boot
services function table for direct calls, alleviating us from
having to maintain the custom function table. (Lukas Wunner)

Julia reported that we may double free 'name' in efivarfs_callback(),
and that this bug was introduced by commit 0d22f33bc37c ("efi: Don't
use spinlocks for efi vars").
Move one of the kfree()s until after the point at which we know we are
definitely on the success path.

All efivars operations are protected by a spinlock which prevents
interruptions and preemption. This is too restricted, we just need a
lock preventing concurrency.
The idea is to use a semaphore of count 1 and to have two ways of
locking, depending on the context:
- In interrupt context, we call down_trylock(), if it fails we return
an error
- In normal context, we call down_interruptible()
We don't use a mutex here because the mutex_trylock() function must not
be called from interrupt context, whereas the down_trylock() can.
