partitions: enable EFI/GPT support by default
The Kconfig currently enables MSDOS partitions by default because they
are assumed to be essential, but it's necessary to enable "advanced
partition selection" in order to get GPT support. IMO GPT partitions
are becoming common enought to deserve the same treatment MSDOS
partitions get.
(Side note: I got bit by a disk that had MSDOS and GPT partition
tables, but for some reason the MSDOS table was different from the
GPT one. I was stupid enought to disable "advanced partition
selection" in my .config, which disabled GPT partitioning and made
my btrfs pool unbootable because it couldn't find the partitions)

blk_cleanup_queue() waits until all active request_fn invocations

not schedule delayed work after blk_cleanup_queue() has marked a queue

i2c: mxs: remove broken PIOQUEUE support
This I2C master can do DMA and PIOQUEUE (PIO with FIFO). Originally,
only PIOQUEUE was supported and it had issues, then DMA support was added
this cycle. The original intention was to keep PIOQUEUE since it has
less overhead what is nice for small transfers. However, runtime
switching between PIOQEUE and DMA depending on the transfer size never
worked despite a lot of trying. Since PIOQUEUE mode itself was flaky
(polling at places where interrupts failed to work) and the
implementation also imposed a size limit for transfers, it is best to
remove the support, so users don't fall over its limitations. It also
makes the driver a lot cleaner and more robust. If somebody really wants
less overhead, plain PIO mode could still be implemented with the
addidtional advantage that this mode is also available on MX23, too.

drm/udl: fix stride issues scanning out stride != width*bpp
When buffer sharing with the i915 and using a 1680x1050 monitor,
the i915 gives is a 6912 buffer for the 6720 width, the code doesn't
render this properly as it uses one value to set the base address for
reading from the vmap and for where to start on the device.
This fixes it by calculating the values correctly for the device and
for the pixmap. No idea how I haven't seen this before now.

Reading TCP stats when using TCP Illinois congestion control algorithm
can cause a divide by zero kernel oops.
The division by zero occur in tcp_illinois_info() at:
do_div(t, ca->cnt_rtt);
where ca->cnt_rtt can become zero (when rtt_reset is called)
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Register tcp_illinois:
# sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=illinois
2. Monitor internal TCP information via command "ss -i"
# watch -d ss -i
3. Establish new TCP conn to machine
Either it fails at the initial conn, or else it needs to wait
for a loss or a reset.
This is only related to reading stats. The function avg_delay() also
performs the same divide, but is guarded with a (ca->cnt_rtt > 0) at its
calling point in update_params(). Thus, simply fix tcp_illinois_info().
Function tcp_illinois_info() / get_info() is called without
socket lock. Thus, eliminate any race condition on ca->cnt_rtt
by using a local stack variable. Simply reuse info.tcpv_rttcnt,
as its already set to ca->cnt_rtt.
Function avg_delay() is not affected by this race condition, as
its called with the socket lock.

iscsi-target: Fix missed wakeup race in TX thread
The sleeping code in iscsi_target_tx_thread() is susceptible to the classic
missed wakeup race:
- TX thread finishes handle_immediate_queue() and handle_response_queue(),
thinks both queues are empty.
- Another thread adds a queue entry and does wake_up_process(), which does
nothing because the TX thread is still awake.
- TX thread does schedule_timeout() and sleeps forever.
In practice this can kill an iSCSI connection if for example an initiator
does single-threaded writes and the target misses the wakeup window when
queueing an R2T; in this case the connection will be stuck until the
initiator loses patience and does some task management operation (or kills
the connection entirely).
Fix this by converting to wait_event_interruptible(), which does not
suffer from this sort of race.

After commit b3356bf0dbb349 (KVM: emulator: optimize "rep ins" handling),
the pieces of io data can be collected and write them to the guest memory
or MMIO together
Unfortunately, kvm splits the mmio access into 8 bytes and store them to
vcpu->mmio_fragments. If the guest uses "rep ins" to move large data, it
will cause vcpu->mmio_fragments overflow
Actually, we can use one mmio_fragment to store a large mmio access then
split it when we pass the mmio-exit-info to userspace. After that, we only
need two entries to store mmio info for the cross-mmio pages access
Use nfs_sb_deactive_async instead of nfs_sb_deactive when in a workqueue

in a workqueue kworker context, trying to kill all RPC tasks associated with
the client, while one or more of these tasks have already been assigned to the
same kworker (and will never run rpc_exit_task).
This approach is needed because RPC tasks that have already been assigned
to a kworker by queue_work cannot be canceled, as explained in the comment
for workqueue.c:insert_wq_barrier.

as 0, and nothing useful gets into the cache.
This patch removes the use of get_expiry() - which really expects an
expiry time - and uses get_uint() instead, treating the int correctly
as a ttl.
This fixes a regression that has been present since 2.6.37, causing
certain NFS accesses in certain environments to incorrectly fail.

NFS: Wait for session recovery to finish before returning
Currently, we will schedule session recovery and then return to the
caller of nfs4_handle_exception. This works for most cases, but causes
a hang on the following test case:
Client Server
------ ------
Open file over NFS v4.1
Write to file
Expire client
Try to lock file
The server will return NFS4ERR_BADSESSION, prompting the client to
schedule recovery. However, the client will continue placing lock
attempts and the open recovery never seems to be scheduled. The
simplest solution is to wait for session recovery to run before retrying
the lock.
xen/mmu: Use Xen specific TLB flush instead of the generic one.
As Mukesh explained it, the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_ALL allows the
hypervisor to do a TLB flush on all active vCPUs. If instead
we were using the generic one (which ends up being xen_flush_tlb)
we end up making the MMUEXT_TLB_FLUSH_LOCAL hypercall. But
before we make that hypercall the kernel will IPI all of the
vCPUs (even those that were asleep from the hypervisor
perspective). The end result is that we needlessly wake them
up and do a TLB flush when we can just let the hypervisor
do it correctly.
This patch gives around 50% speed improvement when migrating
idle guest's from one host to another.
