Add new AEMIF driver for EMIF16 Texas Instruments controller.
The EMIF16 module is intended to provide a glue-less interface to
a variety of asynchronous memory devices like ASRA M, NOR and NAND
memory. A total of 256M bytes of any of these memories can be
accessed at any given time via four chip

This patchset is the second posting of this set. Here's an overview of
the changes:
The inheritance semantics have been changed to be much more like BSD
(aka flock()) locks. With this change, what we basically have are a
hybrid of BSD and POSIX locks. They conflict with classic POSIX locks
but
Add a wrapper around assign_type that does this instead of duplicating
this check in two places. This also fixes a minor wart in the code where
we continue referring to the struct flock after converting it to struct

Hi -
Does this new blacklist cover enough that the kernel now survives a
broadly wildcarded perf-probe, e.g. over e.g. all of its kallsyms?
That's generally the purpose of the annotations - if it doesn't then
that's a bug.
AFAIK, no kernel since kprobes was introduced has ever stood up
Currently, zswap is writeback cache; stored pages are not sent
to swap disk, and when zswap wants to evict old pages it must
first write them back to swap cache/disk manually. This avoids
swap out disk I/O up front, but only moves that disk I/O to
the writeback case (for pages that are evicted),

Previously do_kimage_alloc() will allocate a kimage structure, copy
segment list from user space and then do the segment list sanity verification.
Break down this function in 3 parts. do_kimage_alloc_init() to do actual
allocation and basic initialization of kimage structure.
No actual need of it. So keep it internal.

get_page_foll is more optimal and is always safe to use under the PT
lock. More so for hugetlbfs as there's no risk of race conditions with
split_huge_page regardless of the PT lock.

Changes since v2:
1) optimize away a few more locked ops in the get_page/put_page
hugetlbfs and slab paths (see 3/8 and 4/8).
3/8 is the least trivial addition to the series as we now are
running PageSlab and PageHeadHuge on random page structure without
holding any reference count
Currently we don't clobber page_tail-first_page during
split_huge_page, so compound_trans_head can be set to compound_head
without adverse effects, and this mostly optimizes away a smp_rmb.
It looks worthwhile to keep around the implementation that doesn't
relay on page_tail-first_page not to be
The patch from commit 7cb2ef56e6a8b7b368b2e883a0a47d02fed66911 can

Also it is repeating compound_head twice for hugetlbfs and it is
