Add support to debug S3 early resume by flashing the keyboard
LEDs three times in the realmode path. This is useful to allow
one to determine if S3 hangs occur in the BIOS or during the early
resume phase.
Add kernel parameter acpi_sleep=s3_leds to enable the s3 debugging
option. This can also be enabled by writing 8 to
/proc/sys/kernel/acpi_video_flags.

Some application suites have external crash handlers that depend
on being able to use ptrace to generate crash reports (KDE, Wine,
Chromium, Firefox, etc). Since the inferior process has a defined
application-specific relationship with the debugger, allow the inferior
to express that relationship by declaring who can call PTRACE_ATTACH
against it. The inferior can use prctl() with PR_SET_PTRACER to allow a
specific PID and its descendants to perform the ptrace instead of only
a direct ancestor.

This patch adds support for generic cpu thermal cooling low level
implementations using frequency scaling and cpuhotplugg currently.
Different cpu related cooling devices can be registered by the
user and the binding of these cooling devices to the corresponding
trip points can be easily done as the registration API's return the
cooling device pointer.

This patch adds a new trip type THERMAL_TRIP_STATE_ACTIVE. This
trip behaves same as THERMAL_TRIP_ACTIVE but also passes the cooling
device instance number. This helps the cooling device registered as
different instances to perform appropriate cooling action decision in
the set_cur_state call back function.
Also since the trip temperature's are in ascending order so some logic
is put in place to skip the un-necessary checks.

commit 886486b792e4f6f96d4fbe8ec5bf20811cab7d6a upstream.
Originally, the runtime PM core would send an idle notification
whenever a suspend attempt failed. The idle callback routine could
then schedule a delayed suspend for some time later.
However this behavior was changed by commit
f71648d73c1650b8b4aceb3856bebbde6daa3b86 (PM / Runtime: Remove idle
notification after failing suspend). No notifications were sent, and
there was no clear mechanism to retry failed suspends.
This caused problems for the usbhid driver, because it fails
autosuspend attempts as long as a key is being held down. Therefore
this patch (as1492) adds a mechanism for retrying failed
autosuspends. If the callback routine updates the last_busy field so
that the next autosuspend expiration time is in the future, the
autosuspend will automatically be rescheduled.

commit 93b465c2e186d96fb90012ba0f9372eb9952e732 upstream.
Since we're using non-atomic radix tree allocations, we
should be protecting the tree using a mutex and not a
spinlock.
Non-atomic allocations and process context locking is good enough,
as the tree is manipulated only when locks are registered/
unregistered/requested/freed.
The locks themselves are still protected by spinlocks of course,
and mutexes are not involved in the locking/unlocking paths.

Following the discussion here:

The L2x0 L2 Cache Controllers support a combined interrupt line
which can be used for several events (e.g. read/write/parity errors on
tag/data RAM, event counter increment/overflow). Unfortunately the
OF binding added in c519ecf2 ("ARM: 7009/1: l2x0: Add OF based
initialization") does not represent the interrupt.
This patch adds an "interrupts" property to the L2x0 OF binding,
representing the combined interrupt line.

This UML breakage:
linux-2.6.30.1[3800] vsyscall fault (exploit attempt?) ip:ffffffffff600000 cs:33 sp:7fbfb9c498 ax:ffffffffff600000 si:0 di:606790
linux-2.6.30.1[3856] vsyscall fault (exploit attempt?) ip:ffffffffff600000 cs:33 sp:7fbfb13168 ax:ffffffffff600000 si:0 di:606790
Is caused by commit 3ae36655 ("x86-64: Rework vsyscall emulation and add
vsyscall= parameter") - the vsyscall emulation code is not fully cooked
yet as UML relies on some rather fragile SIGSEGV semantics.
Linus suggested in https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/8/9/376 to default
to vsyscall=native for now, this patch implements that.

With commit c814a4c7c4aad795835583344353963a0a673eb0, the meaning of tempX_max
was changed. It no longer returns the value of bits 8:15 of
MSR_IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET, but instead returns the value of CPU threshold
register T1. tempX_max_hyst was added to reflect the value of temperature
threshold register T0.
As it turns out, T0 and T1 are used on some systems, presumably by the BIOS.
Also, T0 and T1 don't have a well defined meaning. The thresholds may be used
as upper or lower limits, and it is not guaranteed that T0 <= T1. Thus, the new
attribute mapping does not reflect the actual usage of the threshold registers.
Also, register contents are changed during runtime by an entity other than the
hwmon driver, meaning the values cached by the driver do not reflect actual
register contents.
Revert most of c814a4c7c4aad795835583344353963a0a673eb0 to address the problem.
Support for T0 and T1 will be added back in with a separate commit, using new
attribute names.

On old CPUs (and even some recent Atom CPUs) TjMax can't be read from
the CPU registers, so it is guessed by the driver using a complex
heuristic which isn't reliable. So let users who know their CPU's
TjMax pass it as a module parameter.

Revert the post-3.0 commit 82f9d486e59f5 ("memcg: add
memory.vmscan_stat").
The implementation of per-memcg reclaim statistics violates how memcg
hierarchies usually behave: hierarchically.
The reclaim statistics are accounted to child memcgs and the parent
hitting the limit, but not to hierarchy levels in between. Usually,
hierarchical statistics are perfectly recursive, with each level
representing the sum of itself and all its children.
Since this exports statistics to userspace, this may lead to confusion
and problems with changing things after the release, so revert it now,
we can try again later.
