Previously, f2fs_setxattr assigns i_xattr_nid in the inode page inconsistently.
The scenario is:
= Thread 1 = = Thread 2 = = fi->i_xattr_nid = = on-disk nid =
f2fs_setxattr 0 0
new_node_page X 0
sync_inode_page X X
checkpoint X X -.
grab_cache_page X X |
--> allocate a new xattr node block or -ENOSPC <----------------'
At this moment, the checkpoint stores inconsistent data where the inode has
i_xattr_nid but actual xattr node block is not allocated yet.
So, we should assign the real i_xattr_nid only after its xattr node block is
allocated.

Previously xattr node blocks are stored to the COLD_NODE log, which means that
our roll-forward mechanism doesn't recover the xattr node blocks at all.
Only the direct node blocks in the WARM_NODE log can be recovered.
So, let's resolve the issue simply by conducting checkpoint during fsync when a
file has a modified xattr node block.
This approach is able to degrade the performance, but normally the checkpoint
overhead is shown at the initial fsync call after the xattr entry changes.
Once the checkpoint is done, no additional overhead would be occurred.

This patch fixes the use of XATTR_NODE_OFFSET.
o The offset should not use several MSB bits which are used by marking node
blocks.
o IS_DNODE should handle XATTR_NODE_OFFSET to avoid potential abnormality
during the fsync call.

This patch fixes a deadlock bug that occurs quite often when there are
concurrent write and fsync on a same file.
Following is the simplified call trace when tasks get hung.
fsync thread:
- f2fs_sync_file
...
- f2fs_write_data_pages
...
- update_extent_cache
...
- update_inode
- wait_on_page_writeback
bdi writeback thread
- __writeback_single_inode
- f2fs_write_data_pages
- mutex_lock(sbi->writepages)
The deadlock happens when the fsync thread waits on a inode page that has
been added to the f2fs' cached bio sbi->bio[NODE], and unfortunately,
no one else could be able to submit the cached bio to block layer for
writeback. This is because the fsync thread already hold a sbi->fs_lock and
the sbi->writepages lock, causing the bdi thread being blocked when attempt
to write data pages for the same inode. At the same time, f2fs_gc thread
does not notice the situation and could not help. Even the sync syscall
gets blocked.
To fix it, we could submit the cached bio first before waiting on a inode page
that is being written back.

This patch fixes mishandling of the sbi->n_orphans variable.
If users request lots of f2fs_unlink(), check_orphan_space() could be contended.
In such the case, sbi->n_orphans can be read incorrectly so that f2fs_unlink()
would fall into the wrong state which results in the failure of
add_orphan_inode().
So, let's increment sbi->n_orphans virtually prior to the actual orphan inode
stuffs. After that, let's release sbi->n_orphans by calling release_orphan_inode
or remove_orphan_inode.

We attempted to address a regression introduced by commit a57f7f9
(ACPICA: Add Windows8/Server2012 string for _OSI method.) after which
ACPI video backlight support doesn't work on a number of systems,
because the relevant AML methods in the ACPI tables in their BIOSes
become useless after the BIOS has been told that the OS is compatible
with Windows 8. That problem is tracked by the bug entry at:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231
Commit 8c5bd7a (ACPI / video / i915: No ACPI backlight if firmware
expects Windows 8) introduced for this purpose essentially prevented
the ACPI backlight support from being used if the BIOS had been told
that the OS was compatible with Windows 8 and the i915 driver was
loaded, in which case the backlight would always be handled by i915.
Unfortunately, however, that turned out to cause problems with
backlight to appear on multiple systems with symptoms indicating that
i915 was unable to control the backlight on those systems as
expected.
For this reason, revert commit 8c5bd7a, but leave the function
acpi_video_backlight_quirks() introduced by it, because another
commit on top of it uses that function.

Commit a82274151a "tracing: Protect ftrace_trace_arrays list in trace_events.c"
added taking the trace_types_lock mutex in trace_events.c as there were
several locations that needed it for protection. Unfortunately, it also
encapsulated a call to tracing_reset_all_online_cpus() which also takes
the trace_types_lock, causing a deadlock.
This happens when a module has tracepoints and has been traced. When the
module is removed, the trace events module notifier will grab the
trace_types_lock, do a bunch of clean ups, and also clears the buffer
by calling tracing_reset_all_online_cpus. This doesn't happen often
which explains why it wasn't caught right away.
Commit a82274151a was marked for stable, which means this must be
sent to stable too.

Brown-paper-bag pull request here. The snb rc6 fix from the last pull
broke forcewake BIOS dirt cleanup, which with fixed. But that fix broke
the spinlock init sequence, which results in an ugly BUG when spinlock
debugging is enabled :( So I get to throw another patch at cc: stable to
fix up the mess ...
