This reverts commit a121f64399.
Unfortunately, this commit breaks UBIFS backward compatibility and
makes new UBIFS refuse older UBIFS-formatted media:
UBIFS error: validate_sb: min. I/O unit mismatch: 8 in superblock, 64 real
Thus, we have to revert this patch and work on a better solution.

Fix up trivial conflict in drivers/mtd/Kconfig as per DavidW.
This patch fixes the mtdpart bug which allows users reading OOB past the
end of the partition. This happens because 'part_read_oob()' allows reading
multiple OOB areas in one go, and mtdparts does not validate the OOB
length in the request.
Although there is such check in 'nand_do_read_oob()' in nand_base.c, but
it checks that we do not read past the flash chip, not the partition,
because in nand_base.c we work with the whole chip (e.g., mtd->size
in nand_base.c is the size of the whole chip). So this check cannot
be done correctly in nand_base.c and should be instead done in mtdparts.c.
This problem was reported by Jason Liu <r64343@freescale.com> and reproduced
with nandsim:
$ modprobe nandsim first_id_byte=0x20 second_id_byte=0xaa third_id_byte=0x00 \

Instead of splitting refcount between (per-cpu) mnt_count
and (SMP-only) mnt_longrefs, make all references contribute
to mnt_count again and keep track of how many are longterm
ones.
Accounting rules for longterm count:
* 1 for each fs_struct.root.mnt
* 1 for each fs_struct.pwd.mnt
* 1 for having non-NULL ->mnt_ns
* decrement to 0 happens only under vfsmount lock exclusive
That allows nice common case for mntput() - since we can't drop the
final reference until after mnt_longterm has reached 0 due to the rules
above, mntput() can grab vfsmount lock shared and check mnt_longterm.
If it turns out to be non-zero (which is the common case), we know
that this is not the final mntput() and can just blindly decrement
percpu mnt_count. Otherwise we grab vfsmount lock exclusive and
do usual decrement-and-check of percpu mnt_count.
For fs_struct.c we have mnt_make_longterm() and mnt_make_shortterm();
namespace.c uses the latter in places where we don't already hold
vfsmount lock exclusive and opencodes a few remaining spots where
we need to manipulate mnt_longterm.
Note that we mostly revert the code outside of fs/namespace.c back
to what we used to have; in particular, normal code doesn't need
to care about two kinds of references, etc. And we get to keep
the optimization Nick's variant had bought us...

This series aims to develop logging facility for enterprise use.
It is important to save kernel messages reliably on enterprise system
because they are helpful for diagnosing system.
This series add kmsg_dump() to the paths loosing kernel messages. The use
case is the following.
[Use case of reboot/poweroff/halt/emergency_restart]
My company has often experienced the followings in our support service.
- Customer's system suddenly reboots.
- Customers ask us to investigate the reason of the reboot.
We recognize the fact itself because boot messages remain in
/var/log/messages. However, we can't investigate the reason why the
system rebooted, because the last messages don't remain. And off course
we can't explain the reason.
We can solve above problem with this patch as follows.
Case1: reboot with command
- We can see "Restarting system with command:" or ""Restarting system.".
Case2: halt with command
- We can see "System halted.".
Case3: poweroff with command
- We can see " Power down.".
Case4: emergency_restart with sysrq.
- We can see "Sysrq:" outputted in __handle_sysrq().
Case5: emergency_restart with softdog.
- We can see "Initiating system reboot" in watchdog_fire().
So, we can distinguish the reason of reboot, poweroff, halt and emergency_restart.
If customer executed reboot command, you may think the customer should
know the fact. However, they often claim they don't execute the command
when they rebooted system by mistake.
No message remains on the current Linux kernel, so we can't show the proof
to the customer. This patch improves this situation.
This patch:
Alters mtdoops and ramoops to perform their actions only for
KMSG_DUMP_PANIC, KMSG_DUMP_OOPS and KMSG_DUMP_KEXEC because they would

Fix up trivial conflict in arch/sparc/prom/tree_32.c as per Grant.
The problem that this patch aims to fix is vfsmount refcounting scalability.
We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup,
which often go to the same mount point.
The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made
scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that
was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs
that may have taken a reference count.
We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping
distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less
frequently.
- check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection
for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts).
- keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this
is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of
a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a
particular CPU which requires more locking).
- keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum
the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then,
keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references,
and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0.
This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root
and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is
a short reference.
This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted
subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running
in them.
This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a
per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock
and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger
and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash.

flash since mtd->writesize is 1 byte for NOR flash. The
MTD CFI driver however often performs writing multiple

In checking for the ONFI revision, the first conditional (for checking
"unsupported" ONFI) seems unnecessary. All ONFI revisions should be
backwards-compatible; even if this is not the case on some newer ONFI
revision, it should simply fail the second version-checking if-else block
(i.e., the bit-fields for 1.0, 2.0, etc. would not be set to 1). Thus, we
move our "unsupported" condition after having checked each bit field.
Also, it's simple enough to add a condition for ONFI revision 2.3. Note
that this does *NOT* mean we handle all new features of ONFI versions
above 1.0.
