Rather than explicitly initializing many fields to 0, NULL, or false
in a newly-allocated message, just use kzalloc() for allocating new
messages. This will become a much more convenient way of doing
things anyway for upcoming patches that abstract the data field.

While processing an outgoing pagelist (either the data pagelist or
trail) in a ceph message, the messenger cycles through each of the
pages on the list. This is accomplished in out_msg_pos_next(), if
the end of the first page on the list is reached, the first page is
moved to the end of the list.
There is a list operation, list_rotate_left(), which performs
exactly this operation, and by using it, what's really going on
becomes more obvious.
So replace these two list_move_tail() calls with list_rotate_left().

Define a new function in_msg_pos_next() to match out_msg_pos_next(),
and use it in place of code at the end of read_partial_message_pages()
and read_partial_message_bio().
Note that the page number is incremented and offset reset under
slightly different conditions from before. The result is
equivalent, however, as explained below.
Each time an incoming message is going to arrive, we find out how
much room is left--not surpassing the current page--and provide that
as the number of bytes to receive. So the amount we'll use is the
lesser of: all that's left of the entire request; and all that's
left in the current page.
If we received exactly how many were requested, we either reached
the end of the request or the end of the page. In the first case,
we're done, in the second, we move onto the next page in the array.
In all cases but (possibly) on the last page, after adding the
number of bytes received, page_pos == PAGE_SIZE. On the last page,
it doesn't really matter whether we increment the page number and
reset the page position, because we're done and we won't come back
here again. The code previously skipped over that last case,
basically. The new code handles that case the same as the others,
incrementing and resetting.

In ceph_con_in_msg_alloc() it is possible for a connection's
alloc_msg method to indicate an incoming message should be skipped.
By default, read_partial_message() initializes the skip variable
to 0 before it gets provided to ceph_con_in_msg_alloc().
The osd client, mon client, and mds client each supply an alloc_msg
method. The mds client always assigns skip to be 0.
The other two leave the skip value of as-is, or assigns it to zero,
except:
- if no (osd or mon) request having the given tid is found, in
which case skip is set to 1 and NULL is returned; or
- in the osd client, if the data of the reply message is not
adequate to hold the message to be read, it assigns skip
value 1 and returns NULL.
So the returned message pointer will always be NULL if skip is ever
non-zero.
Clean up the logic a bit in ceph_con_in_msg_alloc() to make this
state of affairs more obvious. Add a comment explaining how a null
message pointer can mean either a message that should be skipped or
a problem allocating a message.

Currently ceph_osdc_new_request() assigns an osd request's
r_num_pages and r_alignment fields. The only thing it does
after that is call ceph_osdc_build_request(), and that doesn't
need those fields to be assigned.
Move the assignment of those fields out of ceph_osdc_new_request()
and into its caller. As a result, the page_align parameter is no
longer used, so get rid of it.
Note that in ceph_sync_write(), the value for req->r_num_pages had
already been calculated earlier (as num_pages, and fortunately
it was computed the same way). So don't bother recomputing it,
but because it's not needed earlier, move that calculation after the
call to ceph_osdc_new_request(). Hold off making the assignment to
r_alignment, doing it instead r_pages and r_num_pages are
getting set.
Similarly, in start_read(), nr_pages already holds the number of
pages in the array (and is calculated the same way), so there's no
need to recompute it. Move the assignment of the page alignment
down with the others there as well.

(This is being reposted. The first one had a problem because it
erroneously added a similar change elsewhere; that change has been
dropped.)
The next patch in this series points out that the calculation for
the number of pages in an osd request is getting done twice. It
is not obvious, but the result of both calculations is identical.
This patch simplifies one of them--as a separate step--to make
it clear that the transformation in the next patch is valid.
In ceph_sync_write() there is some magic that computes page_align
for an osd request. But a little analysis shows it can be
simplified.
First, we have:
io_align = pos & ~PAGE_MASK;
which is used here:
page_align = (pos - io_align + buf_align) & ~PAGE_MASK;
Note (pos - io_align) simply rounds "pos" down to the nearest multiple
of the page size.
We also have:
buf_align = (unsigned long)data & ~PAGE_MASK;
Adding buf_align to that rounded-down "pos" value will stay within
the same page; the result will just be offset by the page offset for
the "data" pointer. The final mask therefore leaves just the value
of "buf_align".
One more simplification. Note that the result of calc_pages_for()
is invariant of which page the offset starts in--the only thing that
matters is the offset within the starting page. We will have
put the proper page offset to use into "page_align", so just use
that in calculating num_pages.

Merge tag 'efi-urgent' into x86/urgent
* The EFI variable anti-bricking algorithm merged in -rc8 broke booting
on some Apple machines because they implement EFI spec 1.10, which
doesn't provide a QueryVariableInfo() runtime function and the logic
used to check for the existence of that function was insufficient.
Fix from Josh Boyer.
* The anti-bricking algorithm also introduced a compiler warning on
32-bit. Fix from Borislav Petkov.

User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability
and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although
there is more work to be done.
One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table
entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This
change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock
is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges
the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are
not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now
identical.
The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in
cache.c to improve its efficiency.

CONFIG_MLONGCALLS was introduced in commit
ec758f9832 to overcome linker issues when linking
huge linux kernels, e.g. with many modules linked in.
But in the kernel module loader there is no support yet for the new relocation
types, which is why modules built with -mlong-calls can't be loaded.
Furthermore, for modules long calls are not really necessary, since we already
use stub sections which resolve long distance calls.
So, let's just disable this compiler option when compiling kernel modules.

When targetting 32-bit processors, __put_user emits a pair of stw
instructions for the 8-byte case. If the type of __val is a pointer, the
marshalling code casts it to the wider integer type of u64, resulting
in the following compiler warnings:
kernel/signal.c: In function 'copy_siginfo_to_user':
kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
[...]
This patch fixes the warnings by removing the marshalling code and using
the correct output modifiers in the __put_{user,kernel}_asm64 macros
so that GCC will allocate the right registers without the need to
extract the two words explicitly.
