3.4.82
commit 60cefed485a02bd99b6299dad70666fe49245da7 upstream.

Kswapd does not in all places have the same criteria for a balanced
zone.  Zones are only being reclaimed when their high watermark is
breached, but compaction checks loop over the zonelist again when the
zone does not meet the low watermark plus two times the size of the
allocation.  This gets kswapd stuck in an endless loop over a small
zone, like the DMA zone, where the high watermark is smaller than the
compaction requirement.

Add a function, zone_balanced(), that checks the watermark, and, for
higher order allocations, if compaction has enough free memory.  Then
use it uniformly to check for balanced zones.

This makes sure that when the compaction watermark is not met, at least
reclaim happens and progress is made - or the zone is declared
unreclaimable at some point and skipped entirely.

mm: vmscan: do not keep kswapd looping forever due to individual uncompactable zones
mm: vmscan: fix inappropriate zone congestion clearing

commit c702418f8a2f ("mm: vmscan: do not keep kswapd looping forever due
to individual uncompactable zones") removed zone watermark checks from
the compaction code in kswapd but left in the zone congestion clearing,
which now happens unconditionally on higher order reclaim.

This messes up the reclaim throttling logic for zones with
dirty/writeback pages, where zones should only lose their congestion
status when their watermarks have been restored.

Remove the clearing from the zone compaction section entirely.  The
preliminary zone check and the reclaim loop in kswapd will clear it if
the zone is considered balanced.

fuse: readdir: check for slash in names

commit efeb9e60d48f7778fdcad4a0f3ad9ea9b19e5dfd upstream.

Userspace can add names containing a slash character to the directory
listing.  Don't allow this as it could cause all sorts of trouble.

libceph: unregister request in __map_request failed and nofail == false

commit 73d9f7eef3d98c3920e144797cc1894c6b005a1e upstream.

For nofail == false request, if __map_request failed, the caller does
cleanup work, like releasing the relative pages.  It doesn't make any sense
to retry this request.

commit 893d290f1d7496db97c9471bc352ad4a11dc8a25 upstream.

After we've done __elv_add_request() and __blk_run_queue() in
blk_execute_rq_nowait(), the request might finish and be freed
immediately.  Therefore checking if the type is REQ_TYPE_PM_RESUME
isn't safe afterwards, because if it isn't, rq might be gone.
Instead, check beforehand and stash the result in a temporary.

This fixes crashes in blk_execute_rq_nowait() I get occasionally when
running with lots of memory debugging options enabled -- I think this
race is usually harmless because the window for rq to be reallocated
is so small.

commit 860d21e2c585f7ee8a4ecc06f474fdc33c9474f4 upstream.

The only reason for sb_getblk() failing is if it can't allocate the
buffer_head.  So ENOMEM is more appropriate than EIO.  In addition,
make sure that the file system is marked as being inconsistent if
sb_getblk() fails.
