Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.4 development cycle.
The only changes hitting outside drivers/gpio are in the pin control
subsystem and these seem to have settled nicely in linux-next.
Development mistakes and catfights are nicely documented in the
reverts as you can see. The outcome of the ABI fight is that we're
working on a chardev ABI for GPIO now, where hope to show results for
the v4.5 kernel.
Summary of changes:
GPIO core:
- Define and handle flags for open drain/open collector and open
source/open emitter, also know as "single-ended" configurations.
- Generic request/free operations that handle calling out to the
(optional) pin control backend.
- Some refactoring related to an ABI change that did not happen, yet
provide useful.
- Added a real-time compliance checklist. Many GPIO chips have
irqchips, and need to think this over with the RT patches going
upstream.
- Restructure, fix and clean up Kconfig menus a bit.
New drivers:
- New driver for AMD Promony.
- New driver for ACCES 104-IDIO-16, a port-mapped I/O card,
ISA-style. Very retro.
Subdriver changes:
- OMAP changes to handle real time requirements.
- Handle trigger types for edge and level IRQs on PL061 properly. As
this hardware is very common it needs to set a proper example for
others to follow.
- Some container_of() cleanups.
- Delete the unused MSM driver in favor of the driver that is
embedded inside the pin control driver.
- Cleanup of the ath79 GPIO driver used by many, many OpenWRT router
targets.
- A consolidated IT87xx driver replacing the earlier very specific
IT8761e driver.
- Handle the TI TCA9539 in the PCA953x driver. Also handle ACPI
devices in this subdriver.
- Drop xilinx arch dependencies as these FPGAs seem to profilate over
a few different architectures. MIPS and ARM come to mind"

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the big bulk of pin control changes for the v4.4 kernel
development cycle. Development pace is high in pin control again this
merge window. 28 contributors, 83 patches.
It hits a few sites outside the pin control subsystem:
- Device tree bindings in Documentation (as usual)
- MAINTAINERS
- drivers/base/* for the "init" state handling by Doug Anderson.
This has been ACKed by Greg.
- drivers/usb/renesas_usbhs/rcar2.c, for a dependent Renesas change
in the USB subsystem. This has been ACKed by both Greg and Felipe.
- arch/arm/boot/dts/sama5d2.dtsi - this should ideally have gone
through the ARM SoC tree but ended up here.
This time I am using Geert Uytterhoeven as submaintainer for SH PFC
since the are three-four people working in parallel with new Renesas
ASICs.
Summary of changes:
Infrastructure:
- Doug Anderson wrote a patch adding an "init" state different from
the "default" state for pin control state handling in the core
framework. This is applied before the driver's probe() call if
defined and takes precedence over "default". If both are defined,
"init" will be applied *before* probe() and "default" will be
applied *after* probe().
Significant subdriver improvements:
- SH PFC is switched to getting GPIO ranges from the device tree
ranges property on DT platforms.
- Got rid of CONFIG_ARCH_SHMOBILE_LEGACY, we are all modernized.
- Got rid of SH PFC hardcoded IRQ numbers.
- Allwinner sunxi external interrupt through the "r" controller.
- Moved the Cygnus driver to use DT-provided GPIO ranges.
New drivers:
- Atmel PIO4 pin controller for the SAMA4D2 family

- Rockchip RK3036 subdriver
- Renesas SH PFC R8A7795 subdriver
- Allwinner sunxi A83T PIO subdriver
- Freescale i.MX7d iomux lpsr subdriver

It turns out that at least some versions of glibc end up reading
/proc/meminfo at every single startup, because glibc wants to know the
amount of memory the machine has. And while that's arguably insane,
it's just how things are.
And it turns out that it's not all that expensive most of the time, but
the vmalloc information statistics (amount of virtual memory used in the
vmalloc space, and the biggest remaining chunk) can be rather expensive
to compute.
The 'get_vmalloc_info()' function actually showed up on my profiles as
4% of the CPU usage of "make test" in the git source repository, because
the git tests are lots of very short-lived shell-scripts etc.
It turns out that apparently this same silly vmalloc info gathering
shows up on the facebook servers too, according to Dave Jones. So it's
not just "make test" for git.
We had two patches to just cache the information (one by me, one by
Ingo) to mitigate this issue, but the whole vmalloc information of of
rather dubious value to begin with, and people who *actually* want to
know what the situation is wrt the vmalloc area should just look at the
much more complete /proc/vmallocinfo instead.
In fact, according to my testing - and perhaps more importantly,
according to that big search engine in the sky: Google - there is
nothing out there that actually cares about those two expensive fields:
VmallocUsed and VmallocChunk.
So let's try to just remove them entirely. Actually, this just removes
the computation and reports the numbers as zero for now, just to try to
be minimally intrusive.
If this breaks anything, we'll obviously have to re-introduce the code
to compute this all and add the caching patches on top. But if given
the option, I'd really prefer to just remove this bad idea entirely
rather than add even more code to work around our historical mistake
that likely nobody really cares about.

Merge file descriptor allocation speedup.
Eric Dumazet has a test-case for a fairly common network deamon load
pattern: openign and closing a lot of sockets that each have very little
work done on them. It turns out that in that case, the cost of just
finding the correct file descriptor number can be a dominating factor.
We've long had a trivial optimization for allocating file descriptors
sequentially, but that optimization ends up being not very effective
when other file descriptors are being closed concurrently, and the fd
patterns are not some simple FIFO pattern. In such cases we ended up
spending a lot of time just scanning the bitmap of open file descriptors
in order to find the next file descriptor number to open.
This trivial patch-series mitigates that by simply introducing a
second-level bitmap of which words in the first bitmap are already fully
allocated. That cuts down the cost of scanning by an order of magnitude
in some pathological (but realistic) cases.
The second patch is an even more trivial patch to avoid unnecessarily
dirtying the cacheline for the close-on-exec bit array that normally

"This set of updates contains:
- Another bugfix for the pathologic vm86 machinery. Clear

comes along with an update to the vm86 selftest case
- Fix another corner case in the ioapic setup code which causes a

leads to a NULL pointer dereference when the allocation code is
called with a NULL device"

- Relax dependencies on SPI_MASTER for drivers in the SPI menu
that already has this dependency.
- Move out the expander that would be hidden for I2C access if
SPI_MASTER was not selected. Tentatively create a separate
menu for this.
- Move the ZX SoC driver to memory-mapped drivers, this must be
a mistake and only worked because the system has an SPI master
enabled at the same time.

The I2C expander menu already depends on I2C, drop subdependecies
on individual drivers. Keep the instances of depends on I2C=y
though, so these are still restricted to the compiled-in case.

"This is three essential bug fixes for various SCSI parts.
The only affected users are SCSI multi-path via device handler

use after free on remove leading to a crash with strict memory
accounting. The mvsas bug manifests as a null deref oops but only on
abort sequences; however, these can commonly occur with SATA attached
devices, hence the fix"

We clear the close-on-exec flag when opening and closing files, and the
bit was almost always already clear before. Avoid dirtying the
cacheline if the clearning isn't necessary. That avoids unnecessary
cacheline dirtying and bouncing in multi-socket environments.
Eric Dumazet has a file descriptor benchmark that goes 4% faster from
this on his two-socket machine. It's probably partly superlinear
improvement due to getting slightly less spinlock contention on the
file_lock spinlock due to less work in the critical section.

And Eric Dumazet has a somewhat realistic multithreaded microbenchmark
that opens and closes a lot of sockets with minimal work per socket.
This patch largely fixes it. We keep a 2nd-level bitmap of the open
file bitmaps, showing which words are already full. So then we can
traverse that second-level bitmap to efficiently skip already allocated
file descriptors.
On his benchmark, this improves performance by up to an order of
magnitude, by avoiding the excessive open file bitmap scanning.
