<id>urn:sha1:7b09acdcb944a9be6acc38ab1aa8a0ffd08871c1</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for an optional MTD label for mtd2block emulated
MTD devices.  Useful when, e.g., testing device images using Qemu.

The following line in /etc/fstab can then be used to mount a file system
regardless if running on an embedded system, or emulated with block2mtd:

    mtd:Config  /mnt    jffs2   noatime,nodiratime      0    0

Kernel command line syntax in the emulated case:

    block2mtd.block2mtd=/dev/sda,,Config

Notice the ',,' it is the optional erase_size, which like before this
patch, defaults to PAGE_SIZE when omitted.  Hence the strlen() check.

Use Joe Perches cvt_fallthrough.pl script to convert

	/* fallthrough */

comments (and its derivatives) into a

	fallthrough;

statement. This automatically drops useless ones.

Do it MTD-wide.

<id>urn:sha1:e7bfb3fdbde3bfeeeb64e2d73ac6babe59519c9e</id>
<content type='text'>
MTD users are no longer checking erase_info-&gt;state to determine if the
erase operation failed or succeeded. Moreover, mtd_erase_callback() is
now a NOP.

We can safely get rid of all mtd_erase_callback() calls and all
erase_info-&gt;state assignments. While at it, get rid of the
erase_info-&gt;state field, all MTD_ERASE_XXX definitions and the
mtd_erase_callback() function.

Several function prototypes for the set/get functions defined by
module_param_call() have a slightly wrong argument types. This fixes
those in an effort to clean up the calls when running under type-enforced
compiler instrumentation for CFI. This is the result of running the
following semantic patch:

@match_module_param_call_function@
declarer name module_param_call;
identifier _name, _set_func, _get_func;
expression _arg, _mode;

 module_param_call(_name, _set_func, _get_func, _arg, _mode);

<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>

<id>urn:sha1:09cbfeaf1a5a67bfb3201e0c83c810cecb2efa5a</id>
<content type='text'>
PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

<title>writeback: separate out include/linux/backing-dev-defs.h</title>

<content type='text'>
With the planned cgroup writeback support, backing-dev related
declarations will be more widely used across block and cgroup;
unfortunately, including backing-dev.h from include/linux/blkdev.h
makes cyclic include dependency quite likely.

This patch separates out backing-dev-defs.h which only has the
essential definitions and updates blkdev.h to include it.  c files
which need access to more backing-dev details now include
backing-dev.h directly.  This takes backing-dev.h off the common
include dependency chain making it a lot easier to use it across block
and cgroup.

v2: fs/fat build failure fixed.
