Fix a warning from lockdep caused by calling cancel_work_sync() for
uninitialized struct work.  This path has been triggered by destructon
kmem-cache hierarchy via destroying its root kmem-cache.

A CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM=y m68k config gave

  mm/ksm.c: In function `get_kpfn_nid':
  mm/ksm.c:492: error: implicit declaration of function `pfn_to_nid'

linux/mmzone.h declares it for CONFIG_SPARSEMEM and CONFIG_FLATMEM, but
expects the arch's asm/mmzone.h to declare it for CONFIG_DISCONTIGMEM
(see arch/mips/include/asm/mmzone.h for example).

Or perhaps it is only expected when CONFIG_NUMA=y: too much of a maze,
and m68k got away without it so far, so fix the build in mm/ksm.c.

n-&gt;end is accessed in sp_insert(). Thus it should be update
before calling sp_insert(). This mistake may make kernel panic.

  etc), fixup for nommu breakage in shmem.c, several cleanups and a bit
  more file_inode() work"

  more file_inode() open-coded instances

(In the meantime, the hlist traversal macros have changed, so this

Don Morris reproduced on a HP z620 workstation, and bisected it to
commit e8d195525809 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock
is ready")

It turns out movable_map has some problems, and it breaks several things

1. numa_init is called several times, NOT just for srat. so those
	nodes_clear(numa_nodes_parsed)
	memset(&amp;numa_meminfo, 0, sizeof(numa_meminfo))
   can not be just removed.  Need to consider sequence is: numaq, srat, amd, dummy.
   and make fall back path working.

2. simply split acpi_numa_init to early_parse_srat.
   a. that early_parse_srat is NOT called for ia64, so you break ia64.
   b.  for (i = 0; i &lt; MAX_LOCAL_APIC; i++)
	     set_apicid_to_node(i, NUMA_NO_NODE)
     still left in numa_init. So it will just clear result from early_parse_srat.
     it should be moved before that....
   c.  it breaks ACPI_TABLE_OVERIDE...as the acpi table scan is moved
       early before override from INITRD is settled.

3. that patch TITLE is total misleading, there is NO x86 in the title,
   but it changes critical x86 code. It caused x86 guys did not
   pay attention to find the problem early. Those patches really should
   be routed via tip/x86/mm.

4. after that commit, following range can not use movable ram:
  a. real_mode code.... well..funny, legacy Node0 [0,1M) could be hot-removed?
  b. initrd... it will be freed after booting, so it could be on movable...
  c. crashkernel for kdump...: looks like we can not put kdump kernel above 4G
	anymore.
  d. init_mem_mapping: can not put page table high anymore.
  e. initmem_init: vmemmap can not be high local node anymore. That is
     not good.

If node is hotplugable, the mem related range like page table and
vmemmap could be on the that node without problem and should be on that
node.

We have workaround patch that could fix some problems, but some can not
be fixed.

So just remove that offending commit and related ones including:

 f7210e6c4ac7 ("mm/memblock.c: use CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP to
    protect movablecore_map in memblock_overlaps_region().")

 01a178a94e8e ("acpi, memory-hotplug: support getting hotplug info from
    SRAT")

 27168d38fa20 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: extend movablemem_map ranges to
    the end of node")

 e8d195525809 ("acpi, memory-hotplug: parse SRAT before memblock is
    ready")

 fb06bc8e5f42 ("page_alloc: bootmem limit with movablecore_map")

 42f47e27e761 ("page_alloc: make movablemem_map have higher priority")

 6981ec31146c ("page_alloc: introduce zone_movable_limit[] to keep
    movable limit for nodes")

 34b71f1e04fc ("page_alloc: add movable_memmap kernel parameter")

 4d59a75125d5 ("x86: get pg_data_t's memory from other node")

Later we should have patches that will make sure kernel put page table
and vmemmap on local node ram instead of push them down to node0.  Also
need to find way to put other kernel used ram to local node ram.

Pull block IO core bits from Jens Axboe:
 "Below are the core block IO bits for 3.9.  It was delayed a few days
  since my workstation kept crashing every 2-8h after pulling it into
  current -git, but turns out it is a bug in the new pstate code (divide
  by zero, will report separately).  In any case, it contains:

   - The big cfq/blkcg update from Tejun and and Vivek.

   - Additional block and writeback tracepoints from Tejun.

   - Improvement of the should sort (based on queues) logic in the plug
     flushing.

   - _io() variants of the wait_for_completion() interface, using
     io_schedule() instead of schedule() to contribute to io wait
     properly.

   - Various little fixes.

  You'll get two trivial merge conflicts, which should be easy enough to
  fix up"

<content type='text'>
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj-&gt;member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:
