Also "too few sg segments" should not be a BUG_ON there is

So just return -ENOMEM and the rest of the code will gracefully
split the IO.

When MISC_FILESYSTEMS, which is more of a GUI thing then anything else,

We must split exofs/Kconfig in two. The ore one is always included.

This is the first step in defining a dma buffer sharing mechanism.
A new buffer object dma_buf is added, with operations and API to allow easy
sharing of this buffer object across devices.
The framework allows:
- creation of a buffer object, its association with a file pointer, and
associated allocator-defined operations on that buffer. This operation is
called the 'export' operation.
- different devices to 'attach' themselves to this exported buffer object, to
facilitate backing storage negotiation, using dma_buf_attach() API.
- the exported buffer object to be shared with the other entity by asking for
its 'file-descriptor (fd)', and sharing the fd across.
- a received fd to get the buffer object back, where it can be accessed using
the associated exporter-defined operations.
- the exporter and user to share the scatterlist associated with this buffer
object using map_dma_buf and unmap_dma_buf operations.
Atleast one 'attach()' call is required to be made prior to calling the
map_dma_buf() operation.
Couple of building blocks in map_dma_buf() are added to ease introduction
of sync'ing across exporter and users, and late allocation by the exporter.
For this first version, this framework will work with certain conditions:
- *ONLY* exporter will be allowed to mmap to userspace (outside of this
framework - mmap is not a buffer object operation),
- currently, *ONLY* users that do not need CPU access to the buffer are
allowed.
More details are there in the documentation patch.
This is based on design suggestions from many people at the mini-summits[1],
most notably from Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>, Rob Clark <rob@ti.com> and
Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch>.
The implementation is inspired from proof-of-concept patch-set from
Tomasz Stanislawski <t.stanislaws@samsung.com>, who demonstrated buffer sharing
between two v4l2 devices. [2]

We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users
(see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add
yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code
translation.
ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode
from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as
EINVAL ("Invalid argument"). It should be translated as ENOTTY
("Inappropriate ioctl for device").
That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the
block layer actually checks for it, which is sad. We continue to do so
for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should
remove it entirely eventually. In the meantime, this tries to keep the
changes localized to just the EINVAL -> ENOTTY fix, and removing code
that makes it harder to do the right thing.

Also by moving ip6_frag_id and dataref (both 4 bytes) next to each other we can

One holding the RED 'constant' parameters, and one containing the
variables.
This permits a size reduction of GRED qdisc, and is a preliminary step
to add an optional RED unit to SFQ.

private red_vars per flow.

SFQ as implemented in Linux is very limited, with at most 127 flows
and limit of 127 packets. [ So if 127 flows are active, we have one
packet per flow ]
This patch brings to SFQ following features to cope with modern needs.
- Ability to specify a smaller per flow limit of inflight packets.
(default value being at 127 packets)
- Ability to have up to 65408 active flows (instead of 127)
- Ability to have head drops instead of tail drops
(to drop old packets from a flow)
Example of use : No more than 20 packets per flow, max 8000 flows, max
20000 packets in SFQ qdisc, hash table of 65536 slots.
tc qdisc add ... sfq \
flows 8000 \
depth 20 \
headdrop \
limit 20000 \
divisor 65536
Ram usage :
2 bytes per hash table entry (instead of previous 1 byte/entry)
32 bytes per flow on 64bit arches, instead of 384 for QFQ, so much
better cache hit ratio.

When a bnx2x device encounters parity errors, it will not respond to all
SPQ messages. As a result, the shutdown sequence before reset can take
a long time as the ulp drivers (bnx2i/bnx2fc) have to wait for timeout
of all such messages.
To improve this scenario, when bnx2x returns error on the SPQ, we'll send
an immediate response to the ulp drivers to avoid such lengthy timeouts.
Adjust the return code of relevant functions to return error only if
the message cannot be sent on the SPQ so that we'll generate an error
completion to the ulp drivers.
