There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage
device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the
scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this
module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers
were loaded before the module load are present.
Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async
stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only
waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take
into account at all that probing might not have begun yet.
(Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him)
This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which
had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for
the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did
it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml):
The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it
will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

Collect the DECLARE/DEFINE declarations together in linux/percpu-defs.h so
that they're in one place, and give them descriptive comments, particularly
the SHARED_ALIGNED variant.
It would be nice to collect these in linux/percpu.h, but that's not possible
without sorting out the severe #include recursion between the x86 arch headers
and the general headers (and possibly other arches too).

In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU(). This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.
On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section. The linker throws
up the following errors:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU(). However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

Commit a6dc60f897 ("vmscan: rename

it as a flag for "we need to use swap?", as the name indicate.
And in the current implementation, memcg cannot reclaim mapped file
caches when mem+swap hits the limit.
re-introduce may_swap flag and handle it at get_scan_ratio(). This
patch doesn't influence any scan_control users other than memcg.

Insert PCI root bus resources for the FRV-based MB93090 development kit
motherboard. This is required because the CPU's window onto the PCI bus
address space is considerably smaller than the CPU's full address space
and non-PCI devices lie outside of the PCI window that we might want to
access.
Without this patch, the PCI root bus uses the platform-level bus
resources, and these are then confined to the PCI window, thus making
platform_device_add() reject devices outside of this window.

Btrfs fallocate was incorrectly starting a transaction with a lock held
on the extent_io tree for the file, which could deadlock. Strictly
speaking it was using join_transaction which would be safe, but it is better
to move the transaction outside of the lock.
When preallocated extents are overwritten, btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty was
being called on an unlocked buffer. This was triggering an assertion and
oops because the lock is supposed to be held.
The bug was calling btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty on a leaf after btrfs_del_item had
been run. btrfs_del_item takes care of dirtying things, so the solution is a
to skip the btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty call in this case.
