Pull SMP hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update is primarily a cleanup of the CPU hotplug locking code.
The hotplug locking mechanism is an open coded RWSEM, which allows
recursive locking. The main problem with that is the recursive nature
as it evades the full lockdep coverage and hides potential deadlocks.
The rework replaces the open coded RWSEM with a percpu RWSEM and
establishes full lockdep coverage that way.
The bulk of the changes fix up recursive locking issues and address
the now fully reported potential deadlocks all over the place. Some of
these deadlocks have been observed in the RT tree, but on mainline the
probability was low enough to hide them away."

we can remove the workaround and just check for the microcode version.
If the microcode is not up to date, then the TSC deadline timer is
disabled. If the borkage is fixed by the proper microcode version,
then the deadline timer can be used. In both cases the restrictions
to the range of the TSC_ADJUST value, which were added as
workarounds, are removed.

Pull x86 PCI updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This update provides the seperation of x86 PCI accessors from the
global PCI lock in the generic PCI config space accessors.
The reasons for this are:
- x86 has it's own PCI config lock for various reasons, so the
accessors have to lock two locks nested.
- The ECAM (mmconfig) access to the extended configuration space does
not require locking. The existing generic locking causes a massive
lock contention when accessing the extended config space of the
Uncore facility for performance monitoring.
The commit which switched the access to the primary config space over
to ECAM mode has been removed from the branch, so the primary config
space is still accessed with type1 accessors properly serialized by
the x86 internal locking.
Bjorn agreed on merging this through the x86 tree"

hotplug and convert X86 over to it. (Thomas Gleixner)
Aside of consolidating code this is a preparatory change for:
- Finalizing the affinity management for multi-queue devices. The
main change here is to shut down interrupts which are affine to a
outgoing CPU and reenabling them when the CPU comes online again.
That avoids moving interrupts pointlessly around and breaking and
reestablishing affinities for no value. (Christoph Hellwig)
Note: This contains also the BLOCK-MQ and NVME changes which depend
on the rework of the irq core infrastructure. Jens acked them and
agreed that they should go with the irq changes.
- Consolidation of irq domain code (Marc Zyngier)
- State tracking consolidation in the core code (Jeffy Chen)
- Add debug infrastructure for hierarchical irq domains (Thomas
Gleixner)
- Infrastructure enhancement for managing generic interrupt chips via
devmem (Bartosz Golaszewski)
- Constification work all over the place (Tobias Klauser)
- Two new interrupt controller drivers for MVEBU (Thomas Petazzoni)
- The usual set of fixes, updates and enhancements all over the
place"

Pull core block/IO updates from Jens Axboe:
"This is the main pull request for the block layer for 4.13. Not a huge
round in terms of features, but there's a lot of churn related to some
core cleanups.
Note this depends on the UUID tree pull request, that Christoph
already sent out.
This pull request contains:
- A series from Christoph, unifying the error/stats codes in the
block layer. We now use blk_status_t everywhere, instead of using
different schemes for different places.
- Also from Christoph, some cleanups around request allocation and IO
scheduler interactions in blk-mq.
- And yet another series from Christoph, cleaning up how we handle
and do bounce buffering in the block layer.
- A blk-mq debugfs series from Bart, further improving on the support
we have for exporting internal information to aid debugging IO
hangs or stalls.
- Also from Bart, a series that cleans up the request initialization
differences across types of devices.
- A series from Goldwyn Rodrigues, allowing the block layer to return
failure if we will block and the user asked for non-blocking.
- Patch from Hannes for supporting setting loop devices block size to
that of the underlying device.
- Two series of patches from Javier, fixing various issues with
lightnvm, particular around pblk.
- A series from me, adding support for write hints. This comes with
NVMe support as well, so applications can help guide data placement
on flash to improve performance, latencies, and write
amplification.
- A series from Ming, improving and hardening blk-mq support for
stopping/starting and quiescing hardware queues.
- Two pull requests for NVMe updates. Nothing major on the feature
side, but lots of cleanups and bug fixes. From the usual crew.
- A series from Neil Brown, greatly improving the bio rescue set
support. Most notably, this kills the bio rescue work queues, if we
don't really need them.
- Lots of other little bug fixes that are all over the place"

- introduce the new uuid_t/guid_t types that are going to replace
the somewhat confusing uuid_be/uuid_le types and make the terminology
fit the various specs, as well as the userspace libuuid library.
(me, based on a previous version from Amir)
- consolidated generic uuid/guid helper functions lifted from XFS
and libnvdimm (Amir and me)
- conversions to the new types and helpers (Amir, Andy and me)

Merge tag 'uuid-for-4.13' of git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/uuid
Pull uuid subsystem from Christoph Hellwig:
"This is the new uuid subsystem, in which Amir, Andy and I have started
consolidating our uuid/guid helpers and improving the types used for
them. Note that various other subsystems have pulled in this tree, so
I'd like it to go in early.
UUID/GUID summary:
- introduce the new uuid_t/guid_t types that are going to replace the
somewhat confusing uuid_be/uuid_le types and make the terminology
fit the various specs, as well as the userspace libuuid library.
(me, based on a previous version from Amir)
