DNS: Separate out CIFS DNS Resolver code
Separate out the DNS resolver key type from the CIFS filesystem into its own
module so that it can be made available for general use, including the AFS
filesystem module.
This facility makes it possible for the kernel to upcall to userspace to have
it issue DNS requests, package up the replies and present them to the kernel
in a useful form. The kernel is then able to cache the DNS replies as keys
can be retained in keyrings.
Resolver keys are of type "dns_resolver" and have a case-insensitive
description that is of the form "[<type>:]<domain_name>". The optional <type>
indicates the particular DNS lookup and packaging that's required. The
<domain_name> is the query to be made.
If <type> isn't given, a basic hostname to IP address lookup is made, and the
result is stored in the key in the form of a printable string consisting of a
comma-separated list of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
This key type is supported by userspace helpers driven from /sbin/request-key
and configured through /etc/request-key.conf. The cifs.upcall utility is
invoked for UNC path server name to IP address resolution.
The CIFS functionality is encapsulated by the dns_resolve_unc_to_ip() function,
which is used to resolve a UNC path to an IP address for CIFS filesystem. This
part remains in the CIFS module for now.

can still allocate the same resource on ARM.
This patch enables the user to pass the channel/slots reserved
for DSP as platform data. EDMA driver scans this list during
probe and prepares a bitmap of channel/slots which can be used
on ARM side.
Trying to reserve channels by doing a 'pre-allocate' using
edma_alloc_{slot|channel}() API does not work because
1) The reservation should be done in probe() to avoid race
with other ARM side driver trying to use EDMA
2) The alloc channel API sets up the access through shadow region
0 which will be incorrect for DSP usage. It also sets up the
channel <-> queue number mapping which is not required as DSP
will likely do its own mapping anyway.
3) (minor) There is no API to allocate channels in bulk.

drm_fb_helper: Preserve capability to use atomic kms
Commit 5349ef3127c77075ff70b2014f17ae0fbcaaf199 (drm/fb: fix
FBIOGET/PUT_VSCREENINFO pixel clock handling) changed the logic of
when a pixclock was valid vs invalid.
The atomic kernel mode setting used by the kernel debugger relies upon
the drm_fb_helper_check_var() to always return -EINVAL. Until a
better solution exists, this behavior will be restored.

i915: when kgdb is active display compression should be off
If the HW compression is left on, the call backs from the HW will

The atomic display pipe handler callback will reset everything when
kgdb restores kernel to the run state.

fb: add hooks to handle KDB enter/exit
Add fb ops to handle enter/exit of the kernel debugger. If present, the
fb core will register them with KGDB and they'll be called when the
debugger is entered and exited. The new functions are responsible for
switching to an appropriate debug framebuffer and restoring the
interrupted state at exit time.

The kernel console interface stores the number of lines it is

debug_core,kdb: fix crash when arch does not have single step
When an arch such as mips and microblaze does not implement either HW
or software single stepping the debug core should re-enter kdb. The
kdb code will properly ignore the single step operation. Attempting
to single step the kernel without software or hardware support causes
unpredictable kernel crashes.

gdbstub: do not directly use dbg_reg_def[] in gdb_cmd_reg_set()
Presently the usable registers definitions on x86 are not contiguous
for kgdb. The x86 kgdb uses a case statement for the sparse register
accesses. The array which defines the registers (dbg_reg_def) should
not be used directly in order to safely work with sparse register
definitions.
Specifically there was a problem when gdb accesses ORIG_AX, which is
accessed only through the case statement.
This patch encodes register memory using the size information provided
from the debugger which avoids the need to look up the size of the
register. The dbg_set_reg() function always further validates the
inputs from the debugger.

gdbstub: Optimize kgdb's "thread:" response for the gdb serial protocol
The gdb debugger understands how to parse short versions of the thread

zeros which could be omitted, and further optimized in the case of
non-negative thread numbers. The negative numbers are used to
reference a specific cpu in the case of kgdb.

OMAP: DSS2: Replace strncmp() with sysfs_streq() in overlay_manager_store()
The function overlay_manager_store currently fails if the sysfs input is a
prefix string of an existing overlay manager name. This occurs because strncmp
compares the two strings only till the length of the input sysfs string. So a
sysfs input "lcd" will match manager name "lcd2" which is incorrect behavior.
The use of sysfs_streq here will prevent this false positive match to occur.
