Most callers in the kernel want to perform synchronous file I/O, but
still have to bloat the stack with a full struct kiocb. Split out
the parts needed in filesystem code from those in the aio code, and
only allocate those needed to pass down argument on the stack. The
aio code embedds the generic iocb in the one it allocates and can
easily get back to it by using container_of.
Also add a ->ki_complete method to struct kiocb, this is used to call
into the aio code and thus removes the dependency on aio for filesystems
impementing asynchronous operations. It will also allow other callers
to substitute their own completion callback.
We also add a new ->ki_flags field to work around the nasty layering
violation recently introduced in commit 5e33f6 ("usb: gadget: ffs: add
eventfd notification about ffs events").

The AIO interface is fairly complex because it tries to allow
filesystems to always work async and then wakeup a synchronous
caller through aio_complete. It turns out that basically no one
was doing this to avoid the complexity and context switches,
and we've already fixed up the remaining users and can now
get rid of this case.

There is no need to pass the total request length in the kiocb, as
we already get passed in through the iov_iter argument.

Final methods start with get_ready_ep(), which will fail unless we have
->state == STATE_EP_ENABLED. So they'd be failing just fine until that
first write() anyway. Let's do the following:
* get_ready_ep() gets a new argument - true when called from
ep_write_iter(), false otherwise.
* make it quiet when it finds STATE_EP_READY (no printk, that is;
the case won't be impossible after that change).
* when that new argument is true, treat STATE_EP_READY the same
way as STATE_EP_ENABLED (i.e. return zero and do not unlock).
* in ep_write_iter(), after success of get_ready_ep() turn
if (!usb_endpoint_dir_in(&epdata->desc)) {
into
if (epdata->state == STATE_EP_ENABLED &&
!usb_endpoint_dir_in(&epdata->desc)) {
- that logics only applies after config.
* have ep_config() take kernel-side buffer (i.e. use memcpy()
instead of copy_from_user() in there) and in the "let's call ep_io or
ep_aio" (again, in ep_write_iter()) add "... or ep_config() in case it's
not configured yet"

AIO_PREAD requests call ->aio_read() with iovec on caller's stack, so if
we are going to access it asynchronously, we'd better get ourselves
a copy - the one on kernel stack of aio_run_iocb() won't be there
anymore. function/f_fs.c take care of doing that, legacy/inode.c
doesn't...

Commit a7854487cd7128a30a7f4f5259de9f67d5efb95f:
md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write.
Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded.
A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data
blocks, and one may be missing.
Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code
spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed.
So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.

The value resulting from the SECCOMP_RET_DATA mask could exceed MAX_ERRNO
when setting errno during a SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO filter action. This makes
sure we have a reliable value being set, so that an invalid errno will not
be ignored by userspace.

While reporting the (refreshed) list of modules on automatic updates we
may hit the page boundary of the output console and cause a stop if
pagination is enabled. However, gdb does not accept user input while
running over the breakpoint handler. So we get stuck, and the user is
forced to interrupt gdb.
Resolve this by disabling pagination during automatic symbol updates. We
restore the user's configuration once done.

The iterator does not return any task_struct from the thread_group list
because the first condition in the 'if not t or ...' will only be the
first time None.
Instead of keeping track of the state ourself in the next() function, we
fall back using Python's generator.

I tried to use these scripts in an ubuntu 14.04 host (gdb 7.7 compiled
against python 3.3) but there were several errors.
I believe this patch fixes these issues so that the commands now work (I
tested lx-symbols, lx-dmesg, lx-lsmod).
Main issues that needed to be resolved:
* In python 2 iterators have a "next()" method. In python 3 it is
__next__() instead (so let's just add both).
* In older python versions there was an implicit conversion
in object.__format__() (used when an object is in string.format())
where it was converting the object to str first and then
calling str's __format__(). This has now been removed so
we must explicitly convert to str the objects for which
we need to keep this behavior.
* In dmesg.py: in python 3 log_buf is now a "memoryview" object
which needs to be converted to a string in order to use string
methods like "splitlines()". Luckily memoryview exists in
python 2.7.6 as well, so we can convert log_buf to memoryview
and use the same code in both python 2 and python 3.
This version of the patch has now been tested with gdb 7.7 and both python
3.4 and python 2.7.6 (I think asking for at least python 2.7.6 is a
reasonable requirement instead of complicating the code with version
checks etc).
