d1654b803f ARM: mxs: enable pinctrl dummy states
The mxs pinctrl driver will only support DT probe.  That said, the mxs
device drivers can only get pinctrl state from pinctrl subsystem when
the drivers get probed from device tree.

Before converting the whole mxs platform support over to device tree,
we need to enable pinctrl dummy states for those non-DT board files
to ensure the pinctrl API adopted by mxs device drivers will work for
both DT and non-DT probe.

Instead of calling pinctrl_provide_dummies() directly in every board
file, the patch introduces soc specific calls mx23_soc_init() and
mx28_soc_init() for boards' .init_machine hook to invoke, so that
any soc specific setup for non-DT boot only can be added there.

b9fab919b7 Btrfs: avoid sleeping in verify_parent_transid while atomic
verify_parent_transid needs to lock the extent range to make
sure no IO is underway, and so it can safely clear the
uptodate bits if our checks fail.

But, a few callers are using it with spinlocks held.  Most
of the time, the generation numbers are going to match, and
we don't want to switch to a blocking lock just for the error
case.  This adds an atomic flag to verify_parent_transid,
and changes it to return EAGAIN if it needs to block to
properly verifiy things.

49a5f3cf6a TTY: pdc_cons, fix regression in close
The test in pdc_console_tty_close '!tty->count' was always wrong
because tty->count is decremented after tty->ops->close is called and
thus can never be zero. Hence the 'then' branch was never executed and
the timer never deleted.

This did not matter until commit 5dd5bc40f3 ("TTY: pdc_cons, use
tty_port").  There we needed to set TTY in tty_port to NULL, but this
never happened due to the bug above.

So change the test to really trigger at the last close by changing the
condition to 'tty->count == 1'.

Well, the driver should not touch tty->count at all.  It should use
tty_port->count and count open count there itself.

377485f624 init: don't try mounting device as nfs root unless type fully matches
Currently, we'll try mounting any device who's major device number is
UNNAMED_MAJOR as NFS root.  This would happen for non-NFS devices as
well (such as 9p devices) but it wouldn't cause any issues since
mounting the device as NFS would fail quickly and the code proceeded to
doing the proper mount:

       [  101.522716] VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy.
       [  101.534499] VFS: Mounted root (9p filesystem) on device 0:18.

Commit 6829a048102a ("NFS: Retry mounting NFSROOT") introduced retries
when mounting NFS root, which means that now we don't immediately fail
and instead it takes an additional 90+ seconds until we stop retrying,
which has revealed the issue this patch fixes.

This meant that it would take an additional 90 seconds to boot when
we're not using a device type which gets detected in order before NFS.

This patch modifies the NFS type check to require device type to be
'Root_NFS' instead of requiring the device to have an UNNAMED_MAJOR
major.  This makes boot process cleaner since we now won't go through
the NFS mounting code at all when the device isn't an NFS root
("/dev/nfs").

1cc0c998fd ACPI: Fix D3hot v D3cold confusion
Before this patch, ACPI_STATE_D3 incorrectly referenced D3hot
in some places, but D3cold in other places.

After this patch, ACPI_STATE_D3 always means ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD;
and all references to D3hot use ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT.

ACPI's _PR3 method is used to enter both D3hot and D3cold states.
What distinguishes D3hot from D3cold is the presence _PR3
(Power Resources for D3hot)  If these resources are all ON,
then the state is D3hot.  If _PR3 is not present,
or all _PR0 resources for the devices are OFF,
then the state is D3cold.

This patch applies after Linux-3.4-rc1.
A future syntax cleanup may remove ACPI_STATE_D3
to emphasize that it always means ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD.

a03a09b224 CPU frequency drivers MAINTAINERS update
Remove myself as cpufreq maintainer.
x86 driver changes can go through the regular x86/ACPI trees.
ARM driver changes through the ARM trees.
cpufreq core changes are rare these days, and can just go to lkml/direct.

4f988f152e seqlock: add 'raw_seqcount_begin()' function
The normal read_seqcount_begin() function will wait for any current
writers to exit their critical region by looping until the sequence
count is even.

That "wait for sequence count to stabilize" is the right thing to do if
the read-locker will just retry the whole operation on contention: no
point in doing a potentially expensive reader sequence if we know at the
beginning that we'll just end up re-doing it all.

HOWEVER.  Some users don't actually retry the operation, but instead
will abort and do the operation with proper locking.  So the sequence
count case may be the optimistic quick case, but in the presense of
writers you may want to do full locking in order to guarantee forward
progress.  The prime example of this would be the RCU name lookup.

And in that case, you may well be better off without the "retry early",
and are in a rush to instead get to the failure handling.  Thus this
"raw" interface that just returns the sequence number without testing it
- it just forces the low bit to zero so that read_seqcount_retry() will
always fail such a "active concurrent writer" scenario.

2f62427862 Fix __read_seqcount_begin() to use ACCESS_ONCE for sequence value read
We really need to use a ACCESS_ONCE() on the sequence value read in
__read_seqcount_begin(), because otherwise the compiler might end up
reloading the value in between the test and the return of it.  As a
result, it might end up returning an odd value (which means that a write
is in progress).

If the reader is then fast enough that that odd value is still the
current one when the read_seqcount_retry() is done, we might end up with
a "successful" read sequence, even despite the concurrent write being
active.

In practice this probably never really happens - there just isn't
anything else going on around the read of the sequence count, and the
common case is that we end up having a read barrier immediately
afterwards.

So the code sequence in which gcc might decide to reaload from memory is
small, and there's no reason to believe it would ever actually do the
reload.  But if the compiler ever were to decide to do so, it would be
incredibly annoying to debug.  Let's just make sure.
