Change by Stefan R: combine it with case case FIREDTV_DVB_S as
originally suggested by Beat Michel. This enables FE_CAN_FEC_AUTO also
for FireDTV-S2 devices which is possible as long as only DVB-S channels
are used. FE_CAN_FEC_AUTO would be wrong for DVB-S2 channels, but those
cannot be used yet since the driver is not yet converted to S2API.

While the introduction of __copy_from_user_nocache (see commit: 0812a579c92fefa57506821fa08e90f47cb6dbdd) may have been an improvement

netfilter: xt_recent: fix proc-file addition/removal of IPv4 addresses
Fix regression introduded by commit 079aa88 (netfilter: xt_recent: IPv6 support):
From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12753:
Problem Description:
An uninitialized buffer causes IPv4 addresses added manually (via the +IP
command to the proc interface) to never match any packets. Similarly, the -IP
command fails to remove IPv4 addresses.
Details:
In the function recent_entry_lookup, the xt_recent module does comparisons of
the entire nf_inet_addr union value, both for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. For
addresses initialized from actual packets the remaining 12 bytes not occupied
by the IPv4 are zeroed so this works correctly. However when setting the
nf_inet_addr addr variable in the recent_mt_proc_write function, only the IPv4
bytes are initialized and the remaining 12 bytes contain garbage.
Hence addresses added in this way never match any packets, unless these
uninitialized 12 bytes happened to be zero by coincidence. Similarly, addresses
cannot consistently be removed using the proc interface due to mismatch of the
garbage bytes (although it will sometimes work to remove an address that was
added manually).
Reading the /proc/net/xt_recent/ entries hides this problem because this only
uses the first 4 bytes when displaying IPv4 addresses.
Henrik Kurelid tells me that FCP debug logging (which I removed during
cleanups) is still useful when working on driver issues together with
end users. So bring it back in an updated form with only 60% of the
original code footprint.
Logging can be enabled with
# echo -1 > /sys/module/firedtv/parameters/debug
1 instead of -1 enables only FCP header logging,
2 instead of -1 enables only hexdumps of the entire FCP frames.
0 switches logging off again.

firedtv: register input device as child of a FireWire device
Instead of one virtual input device which exists for the whole lifetime
of the driver and receives events from all connected FireDTVs, register
one input device for each firedtv device. These input devices will show
up as children of the respective firedtv devices in the sysfs hierarchy.
However, the implementation falls short because of a bug in userspace:
Udev's path_id script gets stuck with 100% CPU utilization, maybe
because of an assumption about the maximum ieee1394 device hierarchy
depth.
To avoid this bug, we use the fw-host device instead of the proper
unit_directory device as parent of the input device.
There is hope that the port to the new firewire stack won't be inhibited
by this userspace bug because there are no fw-host devices there.

Sparse found a bug:

Also fix sparse warnings of 0 instead of NULL and signedness mismatches.
There was a NULL pointer reference if no dvb_frontend_info was found.
Also, don't directly assign struct typed values to struct typed
variables. Instead write out assignments to individual strcut members.
This reduces module size by about 1 kB.
No FireDTVs with more than one subunit exists, hence simplify the
initialization for the special case of one subunit. The driver was able
to check for more than one subunit but was broken for more than two
subunits.
While we are at it, add several missing cleanups after failure, and

x86: add remapping percpu first chunk allocator
Impact: add better first percpu allocation for NUMA
On NUMA, embedding allocator can't be used as different units can't be
made to fall in the correct NUMA nodes. To use large page mapping,
each unit needs to be remapped. However, percpu areas are usually
much smaller than large page size and unused space hurts a lot as the
number of cpus grow. This allocator remaps large pages for each chunk
but gives back unused part to the bootmem allocator making the large
pages mapped twice.
This adds slightly to the TLB pressure but is much better than using
4k mappings while still being NUMA-friendly.
Ingo suggested that this would be the correct approach for NUMA.

percpu: give more latitude to arch specific first chunk initialization
Impact: more latitude for first percpu chunk allocation
The first percpu chunk serves the kernel static percpu area and may or
may not contain extra room for further dynamic allocation.
Initialization of the first chunk needs to be done before normal
memory allocation service is up, so it has its own init path -
pcpu_setup_static().
It seems archs need more latitude while initializing the first chunk
for example to take advantage of large page mapping. This patch makes
the following changes to allow this.
* Define PERCPU_DYNAMIC_RESERVE to give arch hint about how much space
to reserve in the first chunk for further dynamic allocation.
* Rename pcpu_setup_static() to pcpu_setup_first_chunk().
* Make pcpu_setup_first_chunk() much more flexible by fetching page
pointer by callback and adding optional @unit_size, @free_size and
@base_addr arguments which allow archs to selectively part of chunk
initialization to their likings.

slub: add min_partial sysfs tunable
Now that a cache's min_partial has been moved to struct kmem_cache, it's
possible to easily tune it from userspace by adding a sysfs attribute.
It may not be desirable to keep a large number of partial slabs around
if a cache is used infrequently and memory, especially when constrained
by a cgroup, is scarce. It's better to allow userspace to set the
minimum policy per cache instead of relying explicitly on
kmem_cache_shrink().
The memory savings from simply moving min_partial from struct
kmem_cache_node to struct kmem_cache is obviously not significant
(unless maybe you're from SGI or something), at the largest it's
The true savings occurs when userspace reduces the number of partial
slabs that would otherwise be wasted, especially on machines with a
large number of nodes (ia64 with CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT at 10 for default?).
As well as the kernel estimates ideal values for n->min_partial and
ensures it's within a sane range, userspace has no other input other
than writing to /sys/kernel/slab/cache/shrink.
There simply isn't any better heuristic to add when calculating the
partial values for a better estimate that works for all possible caches.
And since it's currently a static value, the user really has no way of
reclaiming that wasted space, which can be significant when constrained
by a cgroup (either cpusets or, later, memory controller slab limits)
without shrinking it entirely.
This also allows the user to specify that increased fragmentation and
more partial slabs are actually desired to avoid the cost of allocating
new slabs at runtime for specific caches.
There's also no reason why this should be a per-struct kmem_cache_node
value in the first place. You could argue that a machine would have
such node size asymmetries that it should be specified on a per-node
basis, but we know nobody is doing that right now since it's a purely
static value at the moment and there's no convenient way to tune that
via slub's sysfs interface.
