The "drive-&gt;dn" value is a u8 and it is controlled by root only, but
it could be out of bounds here so let's check.

when mounting an ISO filesystem sometimes (very rarely)
the system hangs because of a race condition between two tasks.

This task was trying to mount the cdrom.  It allocated and configured a
super_block struct and owned the write-lock for the super_block-&gt;s_umount
rwsem. While exclusively owning the s_umount lock, it called
sr_block_ioctl and waited to acquire the global sr_mutex lock.

This task tried to open the cdrom device, the sr_block_open function
acquired the global sr_mutex lock. The call to check_disk_change()
then saw an event flag indicating a possible media change and tried
to flush any cached data for the device.
As part of the flush, it tried to acquire the super_block-&gt;s_umount
lock associated with the cdrom device.
This was the same super_block as created and locked by the previous task.

The first task acquires the s_umount lock and then the sr_mutex_lock;
the second task acquires the sr_mutex_lock and then the s_umount lock.

This patch fixes the issue by moving check_disk_change() out of
cdrom_open() and let the caller take care of it.

<title>mm, page_alloc: rename __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM</title>

<id>urn:sha1:71baba4b92dc1fa1bc461742c6ab1942ec6034e9</id>
<content type='text'>
__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

<id>urn:sha1:353b39d1b1511376aca71bc3aba62831370561ca</id>
<content type='text'>
This driver uses 'struct timeval' which we are trying to remove since
32 bit time types will break in the year 2038 by replacing it with
ktime_t.

This patch changes do_gettimeofday() to ktime_get() because
ktime_get() returns a ktime_t while do_gettimeofday() returns struct
timeval.

This patch also uses ktime_us_delta() to get the elapsed time.

 "Main excitement here is Peter Zijlstra's lockless rbtree optimization
  to speed module address lookup.  He found some abusers of the module
  lock doing that too.

  A little bit of parameter work here too; including Dan Streetman's
  breaking up the big param mutex so writing a parameter can load
  another module (yeah, really).  Unfortunately that broke the usual
  suspects, !CONFIG_MODULES and !CONFIG_SYSFS, so those fixes were
  appended too"

Pull core block IO update from Jens Axboe:
 "Nothing really major in here, mostly a collection of smaller
  optimizations and cleanups, mixed with various fixes.  In more detail,
  this contains:

   - Addition of policy specific data to blkcg for block cgroups.  From
     Arianna Avanzini.

   - Various cleanups around command types from Christoph.

   - Cleanup of the suspend block I/O path from Christoph.

   - Plugging updates from Shaohua and Jeff Moyer, for blk-mq.

   - Eliminating atomic inc/dec of both remaining IO count and reference
     count in a bio.  From me.

   - Fixes for SG gap and chunk size support for data-less (discards)
     IO, so we can merge these better.  From me.

   - Small restructuring of blk-mq shared tag support, freeing drivers
     from iterating hardware queues.  From Keith Busch.

   - A few cfq-iosched tweaks, from Tahsin Erdogan and me.  Makes the
     IOPS mode the default for non-rotational storage"

Most code already uses consts for the struct kernel_param_ops,
sweep the kernel for the last offending stragglers. Other than
include/linux/moduleparam.h and kernel/params.c all other changes
were generated with the following Coccinelle SmPL patch. Merge
conflicts between trees can be handled with Coccinelle.

In the future git could get Coccinelle merge support to deal with
patch --&gt; fail --&gt; grammar --&gt; Coccinelle --&gt; new patch conflicts
automatically for us on patches where the grammar is available and
the patch is of high confidence. Consider this a feature request.

Pull libata fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "Rather big for fixes pull.

   - SCC controllers never lived to see the light of the day.  Both
     libata and ide drivers removed.

   - In some configurations, link power management policy changes
     sometimes cause delayed spurious PHY events which can develop into
     noticeable failures.  This has been reported several times over the
     years.  Gabriele's patches suppress PHY events for a while after
     LPM policy changes which should help most of these failures without
     causing too much problem for hotplug use cases.

   - A few controller specific fixes"

[ Hmm.  I don't think removing SSC support is really a "fix", but hey, it
  removes a lot of lines of code.  Which I like.  So ...  good riddance ]

* 'for-4.1-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata:
  ahci: avoton port-disable reset-quirk
