An abstraction layer was added to allow the hardware and clients to be
easily added. This required rewriting the NTB transport layer for this
abstraction layer. This modification will allow future
"high performance" NTB clients.
In addition to this change, a number of performance modifications were
added. These changes include NUMA enablement, using CPU memcpy instead
of asyncdma, and modification of NTB layer MTU size.

Jan Kara and Thomas Gleixner reported boot crashes in the FPU
code:
general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81048a6c>] [<ffffffff81048a6c>] mxcsr_feature_mask_init+0x1c/0x40
2b:* 0f ae 85 00 fe ff ff fxsave -0x200(%rbp)
and bisected it down to the following FPU commit:
91a8c2a5b4 ("x86/fpu: Clean up and fix MXCSR handling")
The reason is that the on-stack FPU registers state variable,
used by the FXSAVE instruction, did not have the required
minimum alignment of 16 bytes, causing the general protection
fault.
This is most likely a GCC bug in older GCC versions, but the
offending commit also added a bogus extra 32-byte alignment
(which GCC ignored too).
So fix this bug by making the variable static again, but also
mark it __initdata this time, because fpu__init_system_mxcsr()
is now an __init function.

Commit 44dba3d5d6 ("sched: Refactor task_struct to use
numa_faults instead of numa_* pointers") modified the way
tsk->numa_faults stats are accounted.
However that commit never touched show_numa_stats() that is displayed
in /proc/pid/sched and thus the numbers displayed in /proc/pid/sched
don't match the actual numbers.
Fix it by making sure that /proc/pid/sched reflects the task
fault numbers. Also add group fault stats too.
Also couple of more modifications are added here:
1. Format changes:
- Previously we would list two entries per node, one for private
and one for shared. Also the home node info was listed in each entry.
- Now preferred node, total_faults and current node are
displayed separately.
- Now there is one entry per node, that lists private,shared task and
group faults.
2. Unit changes:
- p->numa_pages_migrated was getting reset after every read of
/proc/pid/sched. It's more useful to have absolute numbers since
differential migrations between two accesses can be more easily
calculated.

The motivation for this is support for legacy BE guests on the new LE
hosts. There are two redeeming properties that made me merge this:
- It's a trivial amount of code: since we wrap host/guest accesses
anyway, almost all of it is well hidden from drivers.
- Sane platforms would never set flags like VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY,
and when it's clear, there's zero overhead (as some point it was
tested by compiling with and without the patches, got the same
stripped binary).
Maybe we could create a Kconfig symbol to enforce the second point:
prevent people from enabling it eg on x86. I will look into this"

Pull user namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"Long ago and far away when user namespaces where young it was realized
that allowing fresh mounts of proc and sysfs with only user namespace
permissions could violate the basic rule that only root gets to decide
if proc or sysfs should be mounted at all.
Some hacks were put in place to reduce the worst of the damage could
be done, and the common sense rule was adopted that fresh mounts of
proc and sysfs should allow no more than bind mounts of proc and
sysfs. Unfortunately that rule has not been fully enforced.
There are two kinds of gaps in that enforcement. Only filesystems
mounted on empty directories of proc and sysfs should be ignored but
the test for empty directories was insufficient. So in my tree
directories on proc, sysctl and sysfs that will always be empty are
created specially. Every other technique is imperfect as an ordinary
directory can have entries added even after a readdir returns and
shows that the directory is empty. Special creation of directories
for mount points makes the code in the kernel a smidge clearer about
it's purpose. I asked container developers from the various container
projects to help test this and no holes were found in the set of mount
points on proc and sysfs that are created specially.
This set of changes also starts enforcing the mount flags of fresh
mounts of proc and sysfs are consistent with the existing mount of
proc and sysfs. I expected this to be the boring part of the work but
unfortunately unprivileged userspace winds up mounting fresh copies of
proc and sysfs with noexec and nosuid clear when root set those flags
on the previous mount of proc and sysfs. So for now only the atime,
read-only and nodev attributes which userspace happens to keep
consistent are enforced. Dealing with the noexec and nosuid
attributes remains for another time.
This set of changes also addresses an issue with how open file
descriptors from /proc/<pid>/ns/* are displayed. Recently readlink of
/proc/<pid>/fd has been triggering a WARN_ON that has not been
meaningful since it was added (as all of the code in the kernel was
converted) and is not now actively wrong.
There is also a short list of issues that have not been fixed yet that
I will mention briefly.
It is possible to rename a directory from below to above a bind mount.
At which point any directory pointers below the renamed directory can
be walked up to the root directory of the filesystem. With user
namespaces enabled a bind mount of the bind mount can be created
allowing the user to pick a directory whose children they can rename
to outside of the bind mount. This is challenging to fix and doubly
so because all obvious solutions must touch code that is in the
performance part of pathname resolution.
As mentioned above there is also a question of how to ensure that
developers by accident or with purpose do not introduce exectuable
files on sysfs and proc and in doing so introduce security regressions
in the current userspace that will not be immediately obvious and as
such are likely to require breaking userspace in painful ways once
they are recognized"

"Mainly sending this off now for the writeback fixes, since they fix a

This contains:
- two cgroup writeback fixes from Tejun, fixing a user reported issue
with luks crypt devices hanging when being closed.
- NVMe error cleanup fix from Jon Derrick, fixing a case where we'd
attempt to free an unregistered IRQ"
