Pull ktest confusion fix from Steven Rostedt: "With the v3.7-rc2 kernel, the network cards on my target boxes were not being brought up. I found that the modules for the network was not being installed. This was due to the config CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA that came before CONFIG_MODULES, and confused ktest in thinking that CONFIG_MODULES=y was not found. Ktest needs to test all configs and not just stop if something starts with CONFIG_MODULES." * tag 'ktest-v3.7-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest: ktest: Fix ktest confusion with CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA

Pull arm-soc fixes from Arnd Bergmann: "Bug fixes for a number of ARM platforms, mostly OMAP, imx and at91.

Lock splice_read and splice_write functions

2012-10-28T17:59:37Z

Functions generic_file_splice_read and generic_file_splice_write access the pagecache directly. For block devices these functions must be locked so that block size is not changed while they are in progress. This patch is an additional fix for commit b87570f5d349 ("Fix a crash when block device is read and block size is changed at the same time") that locked aio_read, aio_write and mmap against block size change.

percpu-rw-semaphores: use rcu_read_lock_sched

2012-10-28T17:59:36Z

Use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched / synchronize_sched instead of rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock / synchronize_rcu. This is an optimization. The RCU-protected region is very small, so there will be no latency problems if we disable preempt in this region. So we use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched that translates to preempt_disable / preempt_disable. It is smaller (and supposedly faster) than preemptible rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock.

percpu-rw-semaphores: use light/heavy barriers

2012-10-28T17:59:36Z

This patch introduces new barrier pair light_mb() and heavy_mb() for percpu rw semaphores. This patch fixes a bug in percpu-rw-semaphores where a barrier was missing in percpu_up_write. This patch improves performance on the read path of percpu-rw-semaphores: on non-x86 cpus, there was a smp_mb() in percpu_up_read. This patch changes it to a compiler barrier and removes the "#if defined(X86) ..." condition. From: Lai Jiangshan Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

ARM: versatile: fix versatile_defconfig

2012-10-27T15:46:56Z

With the introduction of CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM, versatile is no longer the default platform, so we need to enable CONFIG_ARCH_VERSATILE explicitly in order for that to be selected rather than the multiplatform configuration. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann

ARM: mvebu: update defconfig with 3.7 changes

2012-10-27T15:46:55Z

The split of 370 and XP into two Kconfig options and the multiplatform kernel support has changed a few Kconfig symbols, so let's update the mvebu_defconfig file with the latest changes. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann
