Currently, a bdi (backing_dev_info) embeds single wb (bdi_writeback)
and the role of the separation is unclear. For cgroup support for
writeback IOs, a bdi will be updated to host multiple wb's where each
wb serves writeback IOs of a different cgroup on the bdi. To achieve
that, a wb should carry all states necessary for servicing writeback
IOs for a cgroup independently.
This patch moves bandwidth related fields from backing_dev_info into
bdi_writeback.
* The moved fields are: bw_time_stamp, dirtied_stamp, written_stamp,
write_bandwidth, avg_write_bandwidth, dirty_ratelimit,
balanced_dirty_ratelimit, completions and dirty_exceeded.
* writeback_chunk_size() and over_bground_thresh() now take @wb
instead of @bdi.
* bdi_writeout_fraction(bdi, ...) -> wb_writeout_fraction(wb, ...)
bdi_dirty_limit(bdi, ...) -> wb_dirty_limit(wb, ...)
bdi_position_ration(bdi, ...) -> wb_position_ratio(wb, ...)
bdi_update_writebandwidth(bdi, ...) -> wb_update_write_bandwidth(wb, ...)
[__]bdi_update_bandwidth(bdi, ...) -> [__]wb_update_bandwidth(wb, ...)
bdi_{max|min}_pause(bdi, ...) -> wb_{max|min}_pause(wb, ...)
bdi_dirty_limits(bdi, ...) -> wb_dirty_limits(wb, ...)
* Init/exits of the relocated fields are moved to bdi_wb_init/exit()
respectively. Note that explicit zeroing is dropped in the process
as wb's are cleared in entirety anyway.
* As there's still only one bdi_writeback per backing_dev_info, all
uses of bdi->stat[] are mechanically replaced with bdi->wb.stat[]
introducing no behavior changes.

bdi_unregister() now contains very little functionality.
It contains a "WARN_ON" if bdi->dev is NULL. This warning is of no
real consequence as bdi->dev isn't needed by anything else in the function,
and it triggers if
blk_cleanup_queue() -> bdi_destroy()
is called before bdi_unregister, which happens since
Commit: 6cd18e711d ("block: destroy bdi before blockdev is unregistered.")
So this isn't wanted.
It also calls bdi_set_min_ratio(). This needs to be called after
writes through the bdi have all been flushed, and before the bdi is destroyed.
Calling it early is better than calling it late as it frees up a global
resource.
Calling it immediately after bdi_wb_shutdown() in bdi_destroy()
perfectly fits these requirements.
So bdi_unregister() can be discarded with the important content moved to
bdi_destroy(), as can the
writeback_bdi_unregister
event which is already not used.

Currently people use TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE to idle kthreads and wait for
'work' because TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE contributes to the loadavg. Having
all idle kthreads contribute to the loadavg is somewhat silly.
Now mostly this works OK, because kthreads have all their signals
masked. However there's a few sites where this is causing problems and
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE should be used, except for that loadavg issue.
This patch adds TASK_NOLOAD which, when combined with
TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE avoids the loadavg accounting.
As most of imagined usage sites are loops where a thread wants to
idle, waiting for work, a helper TASK_IDLE is introduced.

of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints.
Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called
__print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be
displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the
TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that
user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data
and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT()
macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty
much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's
because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values
by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the
format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools.
The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings
in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is
shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently
has this in its format file:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
After adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
Its format file will contain this:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })

The struct page is opaque for userspace tools, so it'd be better to save
pfn in order to identify page frames.
The textual output of $debugfs/tracing/trace file remains unchanged and
only raw (binary) data format is changed - but thanks to libtraceevent,
userspace tools which deal with the raw data (like perf and trace-cmd)
can parse the format easily. So impact on the userspace will also be
minimal.

Several tracepoints use the helper functions __print_symbolic() or
__print_flags() and pass in enums that do the mapping between the
binary data stored and the value to print. This works well for reading
the ASCII trace files, but when the data is read via userspace tools
such as perf and trace-cmd, the conversion of the binary value to a
human string format is lost if an enum is used, as userspace does not
have access to what the ENUM is.
For example, the tracepoint trace_tlb_flush() has:
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" },
{ TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" },
{ TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" })
Which maps the enum values to the strings they represent. But perf and
trace-cmd do no know what value TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN is, and would
not be able to map it.
With TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), developers can place these in the event header
files and ftrace will convert the enums to their values:
By adding:
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN);
TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN);
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tlb/tlb_flush/format
[...]
__print_symbolic(REC->reason,
{ 0, "flush on task switch" },
{ 1, "remote shootdown" },
{ 2, "local shootdown" },
{ 3, "local mm shootdown" })
The above is what userspace expects to see, and tools do not need to
be modified to parse them.

Normally the compiler will use the same pointer for a string throughout
the file. But there's no guarantee of that happening. Later changes will
require that all events have the same pointer to the system string.
Name the system string and have all events point to it.
Testing this, it did not increases the size of the text, except for the
notes section, which should not harm the real size any.

tracking
s390: several optimizations and bugfixes. Also a first: a feature
exposed by KVM (UUID and long guest name in /proc/sysinfo) before
it is available in IBM's hypervisor! :)
MIPS: Bugfixes.
x86: Support for PML (page modification logging, a new feature in
Broadwell Xeons that speeds up dirty page tracking), nested virtualization
improvements (nested APICv---a nice optimization), usual round of emulation
fixes. There is also a new option to reduce latency of the TSC deadline
timer in the guest; this needs to be tuned manually.
Some commits are common between this pull and Catalin's; I see you
have already included his tree.
ARM has other conflicts where functions are added in the same place
by 3.19-rc and 3.20 patches. These are not large though, and entirely
within KVM.

Pull backing device changes from Jens Axboe:
"This contains a cleanup of how the backing device is handled, in
preparation for a rework of the life time rules. In this part, the
most important change is to split the unrelated nommu mmap flags from
it, but also removing a backing_dev_info pointer from the
address_space (and inode), and a cleanup of other various minor bits.
Christoph did all the work here, I just fixed an oops with pages that
have a swap backing. Arnd fixed a missing export, and Oleg killed the
lustre backing_dev_info from staging. Last patch was from Al,
unexporting parts that are now no longer needed outside"
* 'for-3.20/bdi' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
Make super_blocks and sb_lock static
mtd: export new mtd_mmap_capabilities
fs: make inode_to_bdi() handle NULL inode
staging/lustre/llite: get rid of backing_dev_info
fs: remove default_backing_dev_info
fs: don't reassign dirty inodes to default_backing_dev_info
nfs: don't call bdi_unregister
ceph: remove call to bdi_unregister
fs: remove mapping->backing_dev_info
fs: export inode_to_bdi and use it in favor of mapping->backing_dev_info
nilfs2: set up s_bdi like the generic mount_bdev code
block_dev: get bdev inode bdi directly from the block device
block_dev: only write bdev inode on close
fs: introduce f_op->mmap_capabilities for nommu mmap support
fs: kill BDI_CAP_SWAP_BACKED
fs: deduplicate noop_backing_dev_info
This time with:
* Generic page-table framework for ARM IOMMUs using the LPAE page-table
format, ARM-SMMU and Renesas IPMMU make use of it already.
* Break out of the IO virtual address allocator from the Intel IOMMU so
that it can be used by other DMA-API implementations too. The first
user will be the ARM64 common DMA-API implementation for IOMMUs
* Device tree support for Renesas IPMMU
* Various fixes and cleanups all over the place

o Several clean ups to the code
One such clean up was to convert to 64 bit time keeping, in the
ring buffer benchmark code.
o Adding of __print_array() helper macro for TRACE_EVENT()
o Updating the sample/trace_events/ to add samples of different ways to
make trace events. Lots of features have been added since the sample
code was made, and these features are mostly unknown. Developers
have been making their own hacks to do things that are already available.
o Performance improvements. Most notably, I found a performance bug where
a waiter that is waiting for a full page from the ring buffer will
see that a full page is not available, and go to sleep. The sched
event caused by it going to sleep would cause it to wake up again.
It would see that there was still not a full page, and go back to sleep
again, and that would wake it up again, until finally it would see a
full page. This change has been marked for stable.
Other improvements include removing global locks from fast paths.

When studying page stealing, I noticed some weird looking decisions in
try_to_steal_freepages(). The first I assume is a bug (Patch 1), the
following two patches were driven by evaluation.
Testing was done with stress-highalloc of mmtests, using the
mm_page_alloc_extfrag tracepoint and postprocessing to get counts of how
often page stealing occurs for individual migratetypes, and what
migratetypes are used for fallbacks. Arguably, the worst case of page
stealing is when UNMOVABLE allocation steals from MOVABLE pageblock.
RECLAIMABLE allocation stealing from MOVABLE allocation is also not ideal,
so the goal is to minimize these two cases.
The evaluation of v2 wasn't always clear win and Joonsoo questioned the
results. Here I used different baseline which includes RFC compaction
improvements from [1]. I found that the compaction improvements reduce
variability of stress-highalloc, so there's less noise in the data.
First, let's look at stress-highalloc configured to do sync compaction,
and how these patches reduce page stealing events during the test. First
column is after fresh reboot, other two are reiterations of test without
reboot. That was all accumulater over 5 re-iterations (so the benchmark
was run 5x3 times with 5 fresh restarts).

In v2 we've seen apparent regression with Patch 1 for unmovable events,
this is now gone, suggesting it was indeed noise. Here, each patch
improves the situation for unmovable events. Reclaimable is improved by
patch 1 and then either the same modulo noise, or perhaps sligtly worse -
a small price for unmovable improvements, IMHO. The number of movable
allocations falling back to other migratetypes is most noisy, but it's
reduced to half at Patch 2 nevertheless. These are least critical as
compaction can move them around.
If we look at success rates, the patches don't affect them, that didn't change.

As with v2, /proc/pagetypeinfo appears unaffected with respect to numbers
of unmovable and reclaimable pageblocks.
Configuring the benchmark to allocate like THP page fault (i.e. no sync
compaction) gives much noisier results for iterations 2 and 3 after
reboot. This is not so surprising given how [1] offers lower improvements
in this scenario due to less restarts after deferred compaction which
would change compaction pivot.

The improvements for first iteration are clear, the rest is much noisier
and can appear like regression for Patch 1. Anyway, patch 2 rectifies it.
Allocation success rates are again unaffected so there's no point in
making this e-mail any longer.
[1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=142166196321125&w=2
This patch (of 3):
When __rmqueue_fallback() is called to allocate a page of order X, it will
find a page of order Y >= X of a fallback migratetype, which is different
from the desired migratetype. With the help of try_to_steal_freepages(),
it may change the migratetype (to the desired one) also of:
1) all currently free pages in the pageblock containing the fallback page
2) the fallback pageblock itself
3) buddy pages created by splitting the fallback page (when Y > X)
These decisions take the order Y into account, as well as the desired
migratetype, with the goal of preventing multiple fallback allocations
that could e.g. distribute UNMOVABLE allocations among multiple
pageblocks.
Originally, decision for 1) has implied the decision for 3). Commit
47118af076 ("mm: mmzone: MIGRATE_CMA migration type added") changed that
(probably unintentionally) so that the buddy pages in case 3) are always
changed to the desired migratetype, except for CMA pageblocks.
Commit fef903efcf ("mm/page_allo.c: restructure free-page stealing code
and fix a bug") did some refactoring and added a comment that the case of
3) is intended. Commit 0cbef29a78 ("mm: __rmqueue_fallback() should
respect pageblock type") removed the comment and tried to restore the
original behavior where 1) implies 3), but due to the previous
refactoring, the result is instead that only 2) implies 3) - and the
conditions for 2) are less frequently met than conditions for 1). This
may increase fragmentation in situations where the code decides to steal
all free pages from the pageblock (case 1)), but then gives back the buddy
pages produced by splitting.
This patch restores the original intended logic where 1) implies 3).
During testing with stress-highalloc from mmtests, this has shown to
decrease the number of events where UNMOVABLE and RECLAIMABLE allocations
steal from MOVABLE pageblocks, which can lead to permanent fragmentation.
In some cases it has increased the number of events when MOVABLE
allocations steal from UNMOVABLE or RECLAIMABLE pageblocks, but these are
fixable by sync compaction and thus less harmful.
Note that evaluation has shown that the behavior introduced by
47118af076 for buddy pages in case 3) is actually even better than the
original logic, so the following patch will introduce it properly once
again. For stable backports of this patch it makes thus sense to only fix
versions containing 0cbef29a78.

Compaction deferring logic is heavy hammer that block the way to the
compaction. It doesn't consider overall system state, so it could prevent
user from doing compaction falsely. In other words, even if system has
enough range of memory to compact, compaction would be skipped due to
compaction deferring logic. This patch add new tracepoint to understand
work of deferring logic. This will also help to check compaction success
and fail.

We now have tracepoint for begin event of compaction and it prints start
position of both scanners, but, tracepoint for end event of compaction
doesn't print finish position of both scanners. It'd be also useful to
know finish position of both scanners so this patch add it. It will help
to find odd behavior or problem on compaction internal logic.
And mode is added to both begin/end tracepoint output, since according to
mode, compaction behavior is quite different.
And lastly, status format is changed to string rather than status number
for readability.

To check the range that compaction is working, tracepoint print
start/end pfn of zone and start pfn of both scanner with decimal format.
Since we manage all pages in order of 2 and it is well represented by
hexadecimal, this patch change the tracepoint format from decimal to
hexadecimal. This would improve readability. For example, it makes us
easily notice whether current scanner try to compact previously
attempted pageblock or not.

This patch adds FASTBOOT flag into checkpoint as follows.
- CP_UMOUNT_FLAG is set when system is umounted.
- CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG is set when intermediate checkpoint having node summaries
was done.
So, if you get CP_UMOUNT_FLAG from checkpoint, the system was umounted cleanly.
Instead, if there was sudden-power-off, you can get CP_FASTBOOT_FLAG or nothing.

Currently, there are several variables with Boolean type as below:
struct f2fs_sb_info {
...
int s_dirty;
bool need_fsck;
bool s_closing;
...
bool por_doing;
...
}
For this there are some issues:
1. there are some space of f2fs_sb_info is wasted due to aligning after Boolean
type variables by compiler.
2. if we continuously add new flag into f2fs_sb_info, structure will be messed
up.
So in this patch, we try to:
1. switch s_dirty to Boolean type variable since it has two status 0/1.
2. merge s_dirty/need_fsck/s_closing/por_doing variables into s_flag.
3. introduce an enum type which can indicate different states of sbi.
4. use new introduced universal interfaces is_sbi_flag_set/{set,clear}_sbi_flag
to operate flags for sbi.
After that, above issues will be fixed.

out a real bug. During suspend and resume the tlb_flush tracepoint is
called when the CPU is going offline. As the CPU has been noted as offline,
RCU is ignoring that CPU, which means that it can not use RCU protected
locks. When tracepoints are activated, they require RCU locking, and
if RCU is ignoring a CPU that runs a tracepoint, there is a chance that
the tracepoint could cause corruption.
The solution was to change the tracepoint into a TRACE_EVENT_CONDITION()
which allows us to check a condition to determine if the tracepoint
should be called or not. If the condition is not met, the rcu protected
code will not be executed. By adding the condition
"cpu_online(smp_processor_id())", this will prevent the RCU protected
code from being executed if the CPU is marked offline.
After adding this, another bug was discovered. As RCU checks rcu callers,
if a rcu call is not done, there is no check (obviously). We found that
tracepoints could be added in RCU ignored locations and not have lockdep
complain until the tracepoint is activated. This missed places where
tracepoints were added in places they should not have been. To fix this,
code was added in 3.18 that if lockdep is enabled, any tracepoint will
still call the rcu checks even if the tracepoint is not enabled. The bug
here, is that the check does not take the CONDITION into account. As the
condition may prevent tracepoints from being activated in RCU ignored
areas (as the one patch does), we get false positives when we enable
lockdep and hit a tracepoint that the condition prevents it from being
called in a RCU ignored location. The fix for this is to add the
CONDITION to the rcu checks, even if the tracepoint is not enabled.

This patch introduces a new module parameter for the KVM module; when it
is present, KVM attempts a bit of polling on every HLT before scheduling
itself out via kvm_vcpu_block.
This parameter helps a lot for latency-bound workloads---in particular
I tested it with O_DSYNC writes with a battery-backed disk in the host.
In this case, writes are fast (because the data doesn't have to go all
the way to the platters) but they cannot be merged by either the host or
the guest. KVM's performance here is usually around 30% of bare metal,
or 50% if you use cache=directsync or cache=writethrough (these
parameters avoid that the guest sends pointless flush requests, and
at the same time they are not slow because of the battery-backed cache).
The bad performance happens because on every halt the host CPU decides
to halt itself too. When the interrupt comes, the vCPU thread is then
migrated to a new physical CPU, and in general the latency is horrible
because the vCPU thread has to be scheduled back in.
With this patch performance reaches 60-65% of bare metal and, more
important, 99% of what you get if you use idle=poll in the guest. This
means that the tunable gets rid of this particular bottleneck, and more
work can be done to improve performance in the kernel or QEMU.
Of course there is some price to pay; every time an otherwise idle vCPUs
is interrupted by an interrupt, it will poll unnecessarily and thus
impose a little load on the host. The above results were obtained with
a mostly random value of the parameter (500000), and the load was around
1.5-2.5% CPU usage on one of the host's core for each idle guest vCPU.
The patch also adds a new stat, /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/halt_successful_poll,
that can be used to tune the parameter. It counts how many HLT
instructions received an interrupt during the polling period; each
successful poll avoids that Linux schedules the VCPU thread out and back
in, and may also avoid a likely trip to C1 and back for the physical CPU.
While the VM is idle, a Linux 4 VCPU VM halts around 10 times per second.
Of these halts, almost all are failed polls. During the benchmark,
instead, basically all halts end within the polling period, except a more
or less constant stream of 50 per second coming from vCPUs that are not
running the benchmark. The wasted time is thus very low. Things may
be slightly different for Windows VMs, which have a ~10 ms timer tick.
The effect is also visible on Marcelo's recently-introduced latency
test for the TSC deadline timer. Though of course a non-RT kernel has
awful latency bounds, the latency of the timer is around 8000-10000 clock
cycles compared to 20000-120000 without setting halt_poll_ns. For the TSC
deadline timer, thus, the effect is both a smaller average latency and
a smaller variance.

Add an optimization for the MS_LAZYTIME mount option so that we will
opportunistically write out any inodes with the I_DIRTY_TIME flag set
in a particular inode table block when we need to update some inode in
that inode table block anyway.
Also add some temporary code so that we can set the lazytime mount
option without needing a modified /sbin/mount program which can set
MS_LAZYTIME. We can eventually make this go away once util-linux has
added support.

Add a new mount option which enables a new "lazytime" mode. This mode
causes atime, mtime, and ctime updates to only be made to the
in-memory version of the inode. The on-disk times will only get
updated when (a) if the inode needs to be updated for some non-time
related change, (b) if userspace calls fsync(), syncfs() or sync(), or
(c) just before an undeleted inode is evicted from memory.
This is OK according to POSIX because there are no guarantees after a
crash unless userspace explicitly requests via a fsync(2) call.
For workloads which feature a large number of random write to a
preallocated file, the lazytime mount option significantly reduces
writes to the inode table. The repeated 4k writes to a single block
will result in undesirable stress on flash devices and SMR disk
drives. Even on conventional HDD's, the repeated writes to the inode
table block will trigger Adjacent Track Interference (ATI) remediation
latencies, which very negatively impact long tail latencies --- which
is a very big deal for web serving tiers (for example).

If a trace event contains an array, there is currently no standard
way to format this for text output. Drivers are currently hacking
around this by a) local hacks that use the trace_seq functionailty
directly, or b) just not printing that information. For fixed size
arrays, formatting of the elements can be open-coded, but this gets
cumbersome for arrays of non-trivial size.
These approaches result in non-standard content of the event format
description delivered to userspace, so userland tools needs to be
taught to understand and parse each array printing method
individually.
This patch implements a __print_array() helper that tracepoint
implementations can use instead of reinventing it. A simple C-style
syntax is used to delimit the array and its elements {like,this}.
So that the helpers can be used with large static arrays as well as

Now that default_backing_dev_info is not used for writeback purposes we can
git rid of it easily:
- instead of using it's name for tracing unregistered bdi we just use
"unknown"
- btrfs and ceph can just assign the default read ahead window themselves
like several other filesystems already do.
- we can assign noop_backing_dev_info as the default one in alloc_super.
All filesystems already either assigned their own or
noop_backing_dev_info.

Now that we got rid of the bdi abuse on character devices we can always use
sb->s_bdi to get at the backing_dev_info for a file, except for the block
device special case. Export inode_to_bdi and replace uses of
mapping->backing_dev_info with it to prepare for the removal of
mapping->backing_dev_info.

Currently map and unmap are implemented as events under a
common trace class declaration. The common class forces
trace_unmap() to require a bogus physical address argument
that it doesn't use. Changing unmap to report unmapped size
will provide useful information for debugging. Remove common
map_unmap trace class and change map and unmap into separate
events as opposed to events under the same class to allow for
differences in the reporting information. In addition, map and
unmap are changed to handle size value as size_t instead of int
to match the passed size value and avoid overflow.

Both Linus (most recent) and Steve (a while ago) reported that perf
related callbacks have massive stack bloat.
The problem is that software events need a pt_regs in order to
properly report the event location and unwind stack. And because we
could not assume one was present we allocated one on stack and filled
it with minimal bits required for operation.
Now, pt_regs is quite large, so this is undesirable. Furthermore it
turns out that most sites actually have a pt_regs pointer available,
making this even more onerous, as the stack space is pointless waste.
This patch addresses the problem by observing that software events
have well defined nesting semantics, therefore we can use static
per-cpu storage instead of on-stack.
Linus made the further observation that all but the scheduler callers
of perf_sw_event() have a pt_regs available, so we change the regular
perf_sw_event() to require a valid pt_regs (where it used to be
optional) and add perf_sw_event_sched() for the scheduler.
We have a scheduler specific call instead of a more generic _noregs()
like construct because we can assume non-recursion from the scheduler
and thereby simplify the code further (_noregs would have to put the
recursion context call inline in order to assertain which __perf_regs
element to use).
One last note on the implementation of perf_trace_buf_prepare(); we
allow .regs = NULL for those cases where we already have a pt_regs
pointer available and do not need another.

interface, and the code looks as good as it was going to get out of
tree.
- Initial atomic modesetting work

try and send a complete set of modesetting state to the driver has
arisen, and been suffering from neglect this past year. No more,
the start of the common code and changes for msm driver to use it
are in this tree. Ongoing work to get the userspace ioctl finished
and the code clean will probably wait until next kernel.

- More consistent control names representing the topology better
- Fixups: HP mute LED with ALC268 codec, Ideapad S210 built-in mic
fix, ASUS Z99He laptop EAPD
* ASoC
