Merge yet more updates from Andrew Morton:
 "The rest of MM and a kernel-wide procfs cleanup.

  Summary of the more significant patches:

   - Patch series "mm/memory_hotplug: Factor out memory block
     devicehandling", v3. David Hildenbrand.

     Some spring-cleaning of the memory hotplug code, notably in
     drivers/base/memory.c

   - "mm: thp: fix false negative of shmem vma's THP eligibility". Yang
     Shi.

     Fix /proc/pid/smaps output for THP pages used in shmem.

   - "resource: fix locking in find_next_iomem_res()" + 1. Nadav Amit.

     Bugfix and speedup for kernel/resource.c

   - Patch series "mm: Further memory block device cleanups", David
     Hildenbrand.

     More spring-cleaning of the memory hotplug code.

   - Patch series "mm: Sub-section memory hotplug support". Dan
     Williams.

     Generalise the memory hotplug code so that pmem can use it more
     completely. Then remove the hacks from the libnvdimm code which
     were there to work around the memory-hotplug code's constraints.

   - "proc/sysctl: add shared variables for range check", Matteo Croce.

     We have about 250 instances of

          int zero;
          ...
                  .extra1 = &amp;zero,

     in the tree. This is a tree-wide sweep to make all those private
     "zero"s and "one"s use global variables.

     Alas, it isn't practical to make those two global integers const"

<title>tcp: fix tcp_set_congestion_control() use from bpf hook</title>

Neal reported incorrect use of ns_capable() from bpf hook.

bpf_setsockopt(...TCP_CONGESTION...)
  -&gt; tcp_set_congestion_control()
   -&gt; ns_capable(sock_net(sk)-&gt;user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN)
    -&gt; ns_capable_common()
     -&gt; current_cred()
      -&gt; rcu_dereference_protected(current-&gt;cred, 1)

Accessing 'current' in bpf context makes no sense, since packets
are processed from softirq context.

As Neal stated : The capability check in tcp_set_congestion_control()
was written assuming a system call context, and then was reused from
a BPF call site.

The fix is to add a new parameter to tcp_set_congestion_control(),
so that the ns_capable() call is only performed under the right
context.

<id>urn:sha1:eec4844fae7c033a0c1fc1eb3b8517aeb8b6cc49</id>
<content type='text'>
In the sysctl code the proc_dointvec_minmax() function is often used to
validate the user supplied value between an allowed range.  This
function uses the extra1 and extra2 members from struct ctl_table as
minimum and maximum allowed value.

On sysctl handler declaration, in every source file there are some
readonly variables containing just an integer which address is assigned
to the extra1 and extra2 members, so the sysctl range is enforced.

The special values 0, 1 and INT_MAX are very often used as range
boundary, leading duplication of variables like zero=0, one=1,
int_max=INT_MAX in different source files:

    $ git grep -E '\.extra[12].*&amp;(zero|one|int_max)' |wc -l
    248

Add a const int array containing the most commonly used values, some
macros to refer more easily to the correct array member, and use them
instead of creating a local one for every object file.

This is the bloat-o-meter output comparing the old and new binary
compiled with the default Fedora config:

    # scripts/bloat-o-meter -d vmlinux.o.old vmlinux.o

Pull NFS client updates from Trond Myklebust:
 "Highlights include:

  Stable fixes:

   - SUNRPC: Ensure bvecs are re-synced when we re-encode the RPC
     request

   - Fix an Oops in ff_layout_track_ds_error due to a PTR_ERR()
     dereference

   - Revert buggy NFS readdirplus optimisation

   - NFSv4: Handle the special Linux file open access mode

   - pnfs: Fix a problem where we gratuitously start doing I/O through
     the MDS

  Features:

   - Allow NFS client to set up multiple TCP connections to the server
     using a new 'nconnect=X' mount option. Queue length is used to
     balance load.

   - Enhance statistics reporting to report on all transports when using
     multiple connections.

   - Speed up SUNRPC by removing bh-safe spinlocks

   - Add a mechanism to allow NFSv4 to request that containers set a
     unique per-host identifier for when the hostname is not set.

   - Ensure NFSv4 updates the lease_time after a clientid update

  Bugfixes and cleanup:

   - Fix use-after-free in rpcrdma_post_recvs

   - Fix a memory leak when nfs_match_client() is interrupted

   - Fix buggy file access checking in NFSv4 open for execute

   - disable unsupported client side deduplication

   - Fix spurious client disconnections

   - Fix occasional RDMA transport deadlock

   - Various RDMA cleanups

   - Various tracepoint fixes

   - Fix the TCP callback channel to guarantee the server can actually
     send the number of callback requests that was negotiated at mount
     time"

<title>ipv6: Unlink sibling route in case of failure</title>

<content type='text'>
When a route needs to be appended to an existing multipath route,
fib6_add_rt2node() first appends it to the siblings list and increments
the number of sibling routes on each sibling.

Later, the function notifies the route via call_fib6_entry_notifiers().
In case the notification is vetoed, the route is not unlinked from the
siblings list, which can result in a use-after-free.

Fix this by unlinking the route from the siblings list before returning
an error.

Audited the rest of the call sites from which the FIB notification chain
is called and could not find more problems.
