hw-breakpoints: Fix hardware breakpoints -> perf events dependency
The kbuild's select command doesn't propagate through the config
dependencies.
Hence the current rules of hardware breakpoint's config can't
ensure perf can never be disabled under us.
We have:
config X86
selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS
config HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS
select PERF_EVENTS
config PERF_EVENTS
[...]
x86 will select the breakpoints but that won't propagate to perf
events. The user can still disable the latter, but it is
necessary for the breakpoints.
What we need is:
- x86 selects HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS and PERF_EVENTS
- HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINTS depends on PERF_EVENTS
so that we ensure PERF_EVENTS is enabled and frozen for x86.
This fixes the following kind of build errors:
In file included from arch/x86/kernel/hw_breakpoint.c:31:
include/linux/hw_breakpoint.h: In function 'hw_breakpoint_addr':

perf events, x86/stacktrace: Fix performance/softlockup by providing a special frame pointer-only stack walker
It's just wasteful for stacktrace users like perf to walk
through every entries on the stack whereas these only accept
reliable ones, ie: that the frame pointer validates.
Since perf requires pure reliable stacktraces, it needs a stack
walker based on frame pointers-only to optimize the stacktrace
processing.
This might solve some near-lockup scenarios that can be triggered
by call-graph tracing timer events.

The current print_context_stack helper that does the stack
walking job is good for usual stacktraces as it walks through
all the stack and reports even addresses that look unreliable,
which is nice when we don't have frame pointers for example.
But we have users like perf that only require reliable
stacktraces, and those may want a more adapted stack walker, so
lets make this function a callback in stacktrace_ops that users
can tune for their needs.

XFS: Free buffer pages array unconditionally
The code in xfs_free_buf() only attempts to free the b_pages array if the
buffer is a page cache backed or page allocated buffer. The extra log buffer
that is used when the log wraps uses pages that are allocated to a different
log buffer, but it still has a b_pages array allocated when those pages
are associated to with the extra buffer in xfs_buf_associate_memory.
Hence we need to always attempt to free the b_pages array when tearing
down a buffer, not just on buffers that are explicitly marked as page bearing
buffers. This fixes a leak detected by the kernel memory leak code.

xfs: improve metadata I/O merging in the elevator
Change all async metadata buffers to use [READ|WRITE]_META I/O types
so that the I/O doesn't get issued immediately. This allows merging of
adjacent metadata requests but still prioritises them over bulk data.
This shows a 10-15% improvement in sequential create speed of small
files.
Don't include the log buffers in this classification - leave them as
sync types so they are issued immediately.

cleanup blockdev_direct_IO locking
Currently the locking in blockdev_direct_IO is a mess, we have three different
locking types and very confusing checks for some of them. The most
complicated one is DIO_OWN_LOCKING for reads, which happens to not actually be
used.
This patch gets rid of the DIO_OWN_LOCKING - as mentioned above the read case
is unused anyway, and the write side is almost identical to DIO_NO_LOCKING.
The difference is that DIO_NO_LOCKING always sets the create argument for
the get_blocks callback to zero, but we can easily move that to the actual
get_blocks callbacks. There are four users of the DIO_NO_LOCKING mode:
gfs already ignores the create argument and thus is fine with the new
version, ocfs2 only errors out if create were ever set, and we can remove
this dead code now, the block device code only ever uses create for an
error message if we are fully beyond the device which can never happen,
and last but not least XFS will need the new behavour for writes.
Now we can replace the lock_type variable with a flags one, where no flag
means the DIO_NO_LOCKING behaviour and DIO_LOCKING is kept as the first
flag. Separate out the check for not allowing to fill holes into a separate
flag, although for now both flags always get set at the same time.
Also revamp the documentation of the locking scheme to actually make sense.

handlers, e.g. for the ACL methods which perform exactly the same action

methods for the regular user/trusted/secure handlers in extN, ocfs2 and

Also change the inode argument to the handlers to a dentry to allow

vfs: force reval of target when following LAST_BIND symlinks (try #7)
procfs-style symlinks return a last_type of LAST_BIND without an actual
path string. This causes __follow_link to skip calling __vfs_follow_link
and so the dentry isn't revalidated.
This is a problem when the link target sits on NFSv4 as it depends on
the VFS to revalidate the dentry before using it on an open call. Ensure
that this occurs by forcing a revalidation of the target dentry of
LAST_BIND symlinks.
