49a2a1b83b [PATCH] kprobes: changed from using spinlock to mutex
Since Kprobes runtime exception handlers is now lock free as this code path is
now using RCU to walk through the list, there is no need for the
register/unregister{_kprobe} to use spin_{lock/unlock}_isr{save/restore}.  The
serialization during registration/unregistration is now possible using just a
mutex.

In the above process, this patch also fixes a minor memory leak for x86_64 and
powerpc.

41dead49cc [PATCH] kprobes: cleanup include/asm/kprobes.h
The arch specific kprobes.h files never gets included when CONFIG_KPROBES is
turned off.  Hence check for CONFIG_KPROBES is not appropriate here in this
arch specific kprobes.h files.

Also the below defined function kprobes_exception_notify() is not needed when
CONFIG_KPROBES is off.

Compile tested for both CONFIG_KPROBES=y and N.

2d14e39da8 [PATCH] kprobes: enable funcions only for required arch
Kernel/kprobes.c defines get_insn_slot() and free_insn_slot() which are
currently required _only_ for x86_64 and powerpc (which has no-exec support).

FYI, get{free}_insn_slot() functions manages the memory page which is mapped
as executable, required for instruction emulation.

This patch moves those two functions under __ARCH_WANT_KPROBES_INSN_SLOT and
defines __ARCH_WANT_KPROBES_INSN_SLOT in arch specific kprobes.h file.

69778e325c [PATCH] Export ktime_get_ts()
This series removes the getnstimestamp() function from kernel/time.c in favor
of kernel/hrtimer.c's ktime_get_ts() function which currently does exactly the
same thing: retrieves a high-resolution (ns) timespec structure and performs
the wall_to_monotonic adjustment.

This patch:

Export ktime_get_ts() to be used as a timestamp function since it uses
getnstimefoday() and does the wall_to_monotonic adjustment.

fc33a7bb9c [PATCH] per-mountpoint noatime/nodiratime
Turn noatime and nodiratime into per-mount instead of per-sb flags.

After all the preparations this is a rather trivial patch.  The mount code
needs to treat the two options as per-mount instead of per-superblock, and
touch_atime needs to be changed to check the new MNT_ flags in addition to
the MS_ flags that are kept for filesystems that are always
noatime/nodiratime but not user settable anymore.  Besides that core code
only nfs needed an update because it's leaving atime updates to the server
and thus sets the S_NOATIME flag on every inode, but needs to know whether
it's a real noatime mount for an getattr optimization.

While we're at it I've killed the IS_NOATIME/IS_NODIRATIME macros that were
only used by touch_atime.

e6a6d2efcb [PATCH] sanitize building of fs/compat_ioctl.c
Now that all these entries in the arch ioctl32.c files are gone [1], we can
build fs/compat_ioctl.c as a normal object and kill tons of cruft.  We need a
special do_ioctl32_pointer handler for s390 so the compat_ptr call is done.
This is not needed but harmless on all other architectures.  Also remove some
superflous includes in fs/compat_ioctl.c

Tested on ppc64.

[1] parisc still had it's PPP handler left, which is not fully correct
    for ppp and besides that ppp uses the generic SIOCPRIV ioctl so it'd
    kick in for all netdevice users.  We can introduce a proper handler
    in one of the next patch series by adding a compat_ioctl method to
    struct net_device but for now let's just kill it - parisc doesn't
    compile in mainline anyway and I don't want this to block this
    patchset.

parisc used COMPAT_IOCTL or generic w_long handlers for these whichce is wrong
and can't work because the ioctls encode sizeof(unsigned long) in their ioctl
number.  parisc also duplicated COMPAT_IOCTL entries for other rtc ioctls
which I remove in this patch, too.

9cf6f4b3a3 [PATCH] switch autofs4 to touch_atime()
After my lookup_hash patch ->d_revalidate always gets a valid struct nameidata
passed (unless you use lookup_one_len which autofs4 doesn't), so we can switch
it from update_atime to touch_atime.  This is a bit of an academic excercise
because autofs has a 1:1 vfsmount superblock relation, but I want to get rid
of update_atime so filesystems authors can't easily screw up per-mountpoint
noatime support.

870f481793 [PATCH] replace inode_update_time with file_update_time
To allow various options to work per-mount instead of per-sb we need a
struct vfsmount when updating ctime and mtime.  This preparation patch
replaces the inode_update_time routine with a file_update_atime routine so
we can easily get at the vfsmount.  (and the file makes more sense in this
context anyway).  Also get rid of the unused second argument - we always
want to update the ctime when calling this routine.

3542c6e18f [PATCH] remove xfs xattr permission checks
remove checks now in the VFS

XFS has an additional xattr interface through obscure ioctl.  it requires
raised capabilities but we need to add some read-only/immutable checks anyway

e0ad7b073e [PATCH] move xattr permission checks into the VFS
)

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>

The xattr code has rather complex permission checks because the rules are very
different for different attribute namespaces.  This patch moves as much as we
can into the generic code.  Currently all the major disk based filesystems
duplicate these checks, while many minor filesystems or network filesystems
lack some or all of them.

To do this we need defines for the extended attribute names in common code, I
moved them up from JFS which had the nicest defintions.
