5ada552746 ipv4: Simplify output route creation call sequence.
There's a lot of redundancy and unnecessary stack frames
in the output route creation path.

1) Make __mkroute_output() return error pointers.

2) Eliminate ip_mkroute_output() entirely, made possible by #1.

3) Call __mkroute_output() directly and handling the returning error
   pointers in ip_route_output_slow().

6e57b1d6a8 RTC: Revert UIE emulation removal
Uwe pointed out that my alarm based UIE emulation is not sufficient
to replace the older timer/polling based UIE emulation on devices
where there is no alarm irq. This causes rtc devices without alarms
to return -EINVAL to UIE ioctls. The fix is to re-instate the old
timer/polling method for devices without alarm irqs.

This patch reverts the following commits:
042620a018 - Remove UIE emulation
1daeddd596 - Cleanup removed UIE emulation declaration
b5cc8ca1c9 - Remove Kconfig symbol for UIE emulation

The emulation mode will still need to be wired-in with a following
patch before it will work.

516373b8b6 RTC: Release mutex in error path of rtc_alarm_irq_enable
On hardware that doesn't support alarm interrupts, rtc_alarm_irq_enable
could return without releasing the ops_lock mutex.

This was introduced in
	aa0be0f (RTC: Propagate error handling via rtc_timer_enqueue properly)

This patch corrects the issue by only returning once the mutex is
released.

  - new netdev_ops:

  - new ethtool commands:

c0af2c057d IB/qib: Prevent double completions after a timeout or RNR error
There is a double completion associated with error handling for RC QPs.

The sequence is:

 - The do_rc_ack() routine fields an RNR nack and there are 0
   rnr_retries configured on the QP.
 - qib_error_qp() stops the pending timer
 - qib_rc_send_complete() is called from sdma_complete()
 - qib_rc_send_complete() starts the timer because the msb of the psn
   just completed says an ack is needed.
 - a bunch of flushes occur as ipoib posts WQEs to an error'ed QP
 - rc_timeout() calls qib_restart_rc()
 - qib_restart_rc() calls qib_send_complete() with a
   IB_WC_RETRY_EXC_ERR on a wqe that has already been completed in the
   past

The fix avoids starting the timer since another packet will never
arrive.

d503b30bd6 netfilter: tproxy: do not assign timewait sockets to skb->sk
Assigning a socket in timewait state to skb->sk can trigger
kernel oops, e.g. in nfnetlink_log, which does:

if (skb->sk) {
        read_lock_bh(&skb->sk->sk_callback_lock);
        if (skb->sk->sk_socket && skb->sk->sk_socket->file) ...

in the timewait case, accessing sk->sk_callback_lock and sk->sk_socket
is invalid.

Either all of these spots will need to add a test for sk->sk_state != TCP_TIME_WAIT,
or xt_TPROXY must not assign a timewait socket to skb->sk.

This does the latter.

If a TW socket is found, assign the tproxy nfmark, but skip the skb->sk assignment,
thus mimicking behaviour of a '-m socket .. -j MARK/ACCEPT' re-routing rule.

The 'SYN to TW socket' case is left unchanged -- we try to redirect to the
listener socket.

e51900f7d3 block: revert block_dev read-only check
This reverts commit 75f1dc0d07 ("block: check bdev_read_only() from
blkdev_get()").  That commit added stricter checking to make sure
devices that were being used read-only were actually opened in that
mode.

It turns out that the change breaks a bunch of kernel code that opens
block devices.  Affected systems include dm, md, and the loop device.
Because strict checking for read-only opens of block devices was not
done before this, the code that opens the devices was opening them
read-write even if they were being used read-only.  Auditing all that
code will take time, and new userspace packages for dm, mdadm, etc.
will also be required.

1dc32671d8 drm/nv40: fix tiling-related setup for a number of chipsets
Due to the default case handling the older chipsets, a bunch of the newer

default case to handle the newest chipsets.

This also makes nv4e touch the "extra" tiling regs.  "nv" doesn't touch
them for C51 but traces of the NVIDIA binary driver show it being done
there.

I couldn't find NV41/NV45 traces to confirm the behaviour there, but an

3abb17e82f vfs: fix BUG_ON() in fs/namei.c:1461
When Al moved the nameidata_dentry_drop_rcu_maybe() call into the
do_follow_link function in commit 844a391799 ("nothing in
do_follow_link() is going to see RCU"), he mistakenly left the

	BUG_ON(inode != path->dentry->d_inode);

behind.  Which would otherwise be ok, but that BUG_ON() really needs to
be _after_ dropping RCU, since the dentry isn't necessarily stable
otherwise.

So complete the code movement in that commit, and move the BUG_ON() into
do_follow_link() too.  This means that we need to pass in 'inode' as an
argument (just for this one use), but that's a small thing.  And
eventually we may be confident enough in our path lookup that we can
just remove the BUG_ON() and the unnecessary inode argument.
