Pull dma-buf prime support from Dave Airlie:
"This isn't a majorly urgent thing to have, but we'd like to set the
stage for working on dma-buf support in the drm drivers for the next
merge window, so I'd like to push in the initial submission now so
people have something that we can build on top of. The code just
introduces the user interface and internal helper functions for
drivers to use.
We have driver support under development for i915, nouveau, udl on x86
and exynos, omapdrm on arm, which we would be aiming for the next
merge window."
In the -rc1 announcement I asked for people who would use this to
comment on it, and got severa "Yes please" from people for this and for

macro uses BUILD_BUG_ON and it was moved in commit

The root cause is that the system.h split wasn't tested on a baseline

Since this file uses BUG code in several other places besides the xchg

ipv6: Fix RTM_GETROUTE's interpretation of RTA_IIF to be consistent with ipv4
In IPv4, if an RTA_IIF attribute is specified within an RTM_GETROUTE
message, then a route is searched as if a packet was received on the
specified 'iif' interface.
However in IPv6, RTA_IIF is not interpreted in the same way:
'inet6_rtm_getroute()' always calls 'ip6_route_output()', regardless the
RTA_IIF attribute.
As a result, in IPv6 there's no way to use RTM_GETROUTE in order to look
for a route as if a packet was received on a specific interface.
Fix 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' so that RTA_IIF is interpreted as "lookup a
route as if a packet was received on the specified interface", similar
to IPv4's 'inet_rtm_getroute()' interpretation.

net/garp: avoid infinite loop if attribute already exists
An infinite loop occurred if garp_attr_create was called with the values
of an existing attribute. This might happen if a previous leave request
for the attribute has not yet been followed by a PDU transmission (or,
if the application previously issued a join request for the attribute
and is now issuing another one, without having issued a leave request).
If garp_attr_create finds an existing attribute having the same values,
return the address to it. Its state will then get updated (i.e., if it
was in a leaving state, it will move into a non-leaving state and not
get deleted during the next PDU transmission).
To accomplish this fix, collapse garp_attr_insert into garp_attr_create
(which is its only caller).

is assumed to be reset, so the host and guest state are to be assumed

freeze/restore ones.
Once that is done, we also use the PM API's macro to initialise the
sleep functions.
A couple of cleanups are included: there's no need for special thaw
processing in the balloon driver, so that's addressed in patches 1 and
2.
Testing: both S3 and S4 support have been tested using these patches
using a similar method used earlier during S4 patch development: a
guest is started with virtio-blk as the only disk, a virtio network
card, a virtio-serial port and a virtio balloon device. Ping from
guest to host, dd /dev/zero to a file on the disk, and IO from the
host on the virtio-serial port, all at once, while exercising S4 and
S3 (separately) were tested. They all continue to work fine after
resume. virtio balloon values too were tested by inflating and
deflating the balloon."

The raw event format in sysfs is a new ABI. For example for the 'CPU'
PMU we have:
aldebaran:~> ll /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/*
-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/any

-r--r--r--. 1 root root 4096 Mar 31 10:29 /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/umask
those lists of fields contain a specific format:
aldebaran:~> cat /sys/bus/event_source/devices/cpu/format/offcore_rsp
config1:0-63
So, those who wish to specify raw events can now use the following
event format:
-e cpu/cmask=1,event=2,umask=3
Most people will not want to specify any events (let alone raw
events), they'll just use whatever default event the tools use.
But for more obscure PMU events that have no cross-architecture
generic events the above syntax is more usable and a bit more
structured than specifying hex numbers."

ASPM: Fix pcie devices with non-pcie children
Since 3.2.12 and 3.3, some systems are failing to boot with a BUG_ON.
Some other systems using the pata_jmicron driver fail to boot because no
disks are detected. Passing pcie_aspm=force on the kernel command line
works around it.
The cause: commit
4949be16822e ("PCI: ignore pre-1.1 ASPM quirking when
ASPM is disabled") changed the behaviour of pcie_aspm_sanity_check() to
always return 0 if aspm is disabled, in order to avoid cases where we
changed ASPM state on pre-PCIe 1.1 devices.
This skipped the secondary function of pcie_aspm_sanity_check which was
to avoid us enabling ASPM on devices that had non-PCIe children, causing
trouble later on. Move the aspm_disabled check so we continue to honour
that scenario.

selinux: inline avc_audit() and avc_has_perm_noaudit() into caller
Now that all the slow-path code is gone from these functions, we can
inline them into the main caller - avc_has_perm_flags().
Now the compiler can see that 'avc' is allocated on the stack for this
case, which helps register pressure a bit. It also actually shrinks the
total stack frame, because the stack frame that avc_has_perm_flags()
always needed (for that 'avc' allocation) is now sufficient for the
inlined functions too.
Inlining isn't bad - but mindless inlining of cold code (see the
previous commit) is.

selinux: don't inline slow-path code into avc_has_perm_noaudit()
The selinux AVC paths remain some of the hottest (and deepest) codepaths
at filename lookup time, and we make it worse by having the slow path
cases take up I$ and stack space even when they don't trigger. Gcc
tends to always want to inline functions that are just called once -
never mind that this might make for slower and worse code in the caller.
So this tries to improve on it a bit by making the slow-path cases
explicitly separate functions that are marked noinline, causing gcc to
at least no longer allocate stack space for them unless they are
actually called. It also seems to help register allocation a tiny bit,
since gcc now doesn't take the slow case code into account.
Uninlining the slow path may also allow us to inline the remaining hot
path into the one caller that actually matters: avc_has_perm_flags().
I'll have to look at that separately, but both avc_audit() and
avc_has_perm_noaudit() are now small and lean enough that inlining them
may make sense.

The function for_each_cpu_mask() expects a *pointer* to struct

And moreover, for_each_cpu_mask() has been marked as obselete
