KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 0b7f569e45 memcg: fix OOM killer under memcg
This patch tries to fix OOM Killer problems caused by hierarchy.
Now, memcg itself has OOM KILL function (in oom_kill.c) and tries to
kill a task in memcg.

But, when hierarchy is used, it's broken and correct task cannot
be killed. For example, in following cgroup

	/groupA/	hierarchy=1, limit=1G,
		01	nolimit
		02	nolimit
All tasks' memory usage under /groupA, /groupA/01, groupA/02 is limited to
groupA's 1Gbytes but OOM Killer just kills tasks in groupA.

This patch provides makes the bad process be selected from all tasks
under hierarchy. BTW, currently, oom_jiffies is updated against groupA
in above case. oom_jiffies of tree should be updated.

To see how oom_jiffies is used, please check mem_cgroup_oom_called()
callers.

Li Zefan b6719ec1ad cgroups: more documentation for remount and release_agent
This won't remove cpuacct from the mounted hierachy:
 # mount -t cgroup -o cpu,cpuacct xxx /mnt
 # mount -o remount,cpu /mnt

Because for this usage mount(8) will append the new options to the original
options.

And this will get you right:
 # mount [-t cgroup] -o remount,cpu xxx /mnt

Also document how to specify or change release_agent.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki ec64f51545 cgroup: fix frequent -EBUSY at rmdir
In following situation, with memory subsystem,

	/groupA use_hierarchy==1
		/01 some tasks
		/02 some tasks
		/03 some tasks
		/04 empty

When tasks under 01/02/03 hit limit on /groupA, hierarchical reclaim
is triggered and the kernel walks tree under groupA. In this case,
rmdir /groupA/04 fails with -EBUSY frequently because of temporal
refcnt from the kernel.

In general. cgroup can be rmdir'd if there are no children groups and
no tasks. Frequent fails of rmdir() is not useful to users.
(And the reason for -EBUSY is unknown to users.....in most cases)

This patch tries to modify above behavior, by
	- retries if css_refcnt is got by someone.
	- add "return value" to pre_destroy() and allows subsystem to
	  say "we're really busy!"

since it's not better then the Documentation/binfmt_misc.txt.

merge
-  2.3  /proc/sys/kernel - general kernel parameters
with Documentation/sysctls/kernel.txt

remove
-  2.5  /proc/sys/dev - Device specific parameters
since it's obsolete the sysfs is used now.

remove

David Brownell 8a0cecffeb gpio: gpio_{request,free}() now required (feature removal)
We want to phase out the GPIO "autorequest" mechanism in gpiolib and
require all callers to use gpio_request().

 - Update feature-removal-schedule
 - Update the documentation now
 - Convert the relevant pr_warning() in gpiolib to a WARN()
   so folk using this mechanism get a noisy stack dump

Some drivers and board init code will probably need to change.
Implementations not using gpiolib will still be fine; they are already
required to implement gpio_{request,free}() stubs.

Krzysztof Helt ddb53d48da fbdev: remove cyblafb driver
A tridentfb driver has all the functionality of the cyblafb driver without
the bugs of the latter.

Changes to the tridentfb driver:

- FBINFO_READS_FAST added to the tridentfb.  The cyblafb used a blitter
  for scrolling which is faster than color expansion on Cyberblade
  chipsets.  The blitter is slower on a discrete Blade3D core.  Use the
  blitter for scrolling in the tridentfb only for integrated Blade3D
  cores.  Now, scrolling speed is about equal for the tridentfb and the
  cyblafb.

- a copyright notice addition is done on request of Jani Monoses (the
  first author of the tridentfb).

Tested on AGP Blade3D card and PCChips
M787CLR motherboard: VIA C3 cpu +
VT8601 north  bridge (aka Cyberblade/i1).

Ira Snyder 72f5de92e1 hwmon: Add LTC4215 driver
Add Linux support for the Linear Technology LTC4215 Hot Swap controller
I2C monitoring interface.

I have tested the driver with my board, and it appears to work fine.  With
the power supplies disabled, it reads 11.93V input, 1.93V output, no
current and no power.  With the supplies enabled, it reads 11.93V input,
11.98V output, no current, no power.  I'm not drawing any current at the
moment, so this is reasonable.  The value in the sense register never
reads anything except 0, so I expect to get zero from the current and
power calculations.

I didn't attempt to support changing any of the chip's settings or
enabling the FET.  I'm not sure even how to do that and still fit within
the hwmon framework.  :)

Eric Sandeen c2d7543851 filesystem freeze: allow SysRq emergency thaw to thaw frozen filesystems
Now that the filesystem freeze operation has been elevated to the VFS, and
is just an ioctl away, some sort of safety net for unintentionally frozen
root filesystems may be in order.

The timeout thaw originally proposed did not get merged, but perhaps
something like this would be useful in emergencies.

For example, freeze /path/to/mountpoint may freeze your root filesystem if
you forgot that you had that unmounted.

I chose 'j' as the last remaining character other than 'h' which is sort
of reserved for help (because help is generated on any unknown character).

I've tested this on a non-root fs with multiple (nested) freezers, as well
as on a system rendered unresponsive due to a frozen root fs.

Nick Piggin c2ec175c39 mm: page_mkwrite change prototype to match fault
Change the page_mkwrite prototype to take a struct vm_fault, and return
VM_FAULT_xxx flags.  There should be no functional change.

This makes it possible to return much more detailed error information to
the VM (and also can provide more information eg.  virtual_address to the
driver, which might be important in some special cases).

This is required for a subsequent fix.  And will also make it easier to
merge page_mkwrite() with fault() in future.

Alexey Dobriyan 99b7623380 proc 2/2: remove struct proc_dir_entry::owner
Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.

We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.

But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.

->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.

rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.

Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.

So, let's nuke it.

Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Jean Delvare ec19920944 hwmon: Define a standard interface for chassis intrusion detection
Define a standard interface for the chassis intrusion detection feature
some hardware monitoring chips have. Some drivers have custom sysfs
entries for it, but a standard interface would allow integration with
user-space (namely libsensors.)

Jean Delvare fb4504fe84 Move the pcf8591 driver to hwmon
Directory drivers/i2c/chips is going away, so drivers there must find
new homes. For the pcf8591 driver, the best choice seems to be the
hwmon subsystem. While the Philips PCF8591 device isn't a typical
hardware monitoring chip, its DAC interface is compatible with the
hwmon one, so it fits somewhat.

If a better subsystem is ever created for ADC/DAC chips, the driver
could be moved there.

Gong Jun 237c8d2f54 hwmon: (w83627ehf) Add support for W83667HG
Add initial support for the Nuvoton W83667HG chip to the w83627ehf
driver. It has been tested on ASUS P5QL PRO by Gong Jun.

At the moment there is still a usability issue which is that only in6
or temp3 can be present on the W83667HG, so the driver shouldn't
expose both. This will be addressed later.

Hans Verkuil 005759613b V4L/DVB (10988): v4l2-dev: use parent field if the v4l2_device has no parent set.
Normally the parent device of v4l2_device is used as the video device
node's parent. But if it was not set, then use the parent field in the
video_device struct.

This is needed in the cx88 driver, which has one core v4l2_device but
creates multiple pci devices (one each for raw and mpeg video).

So you cannot associate the core v4l2_device with a particular PCI device,
but you can do that for each video_device.
