The changes to split ring allocation from open/close, broke
the cleanup of subchannels. This resulted in problems using
uio on network devices because the subchannel was left behind
when the network device was unbound.

The cause was in the disconnect logic which used list splice
to move the subchannel list into a local variable. This won't
work because the subchannel list is needed later during the
process of the rescind messages (relid2channel).

The fix is to just leave the subchannel list in place
which is what the original code did. The list is cleaned
up later when the host rescind is processed.

Without the fix, we have a lot of "hang" issues in netvsc when we
try to change the NIC's MTU, set the number of channels, etc.

<title>hv_balloon: avoid touching uninitialized struct page during tail onlining</title>

<id>urn:sha1:da8ced360ca8ad72d8f41f5c8fcd5b0e63e1555f</id>
<content type='text'>
Hyper-V memory hotplug protocol has 2M granularity and in Linux x86 we use
128M. To deal with it we implement partial section onlining by registering
custom page onlining callback (hv_online_page()). Later, when more memory
arrives we try to online the 'tail' (see hv_bring_pgs_online()).

It was found that in some cases this 'tail' onlining causes issues:

 BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/0:2  pfn:109e3a
 page:ffffe08344278e80 count:0 mapcount:1 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0

  hv_page_online_one+0x5c/0x80 [hv_balloon]
  hot_add_req.cold.24+0x182/0x835 [hv_balloon]
  ...

Turns out that we now have deferred struct page initialization for memory
hotplug so e.g. memory_block_action() in drivers/base/memory.c does
pages_correctly_probed() check and in that check it avoids inspecting
struct pages and checks sections instead. But in Hyper-V balloon driver we
do PageReserved(pfn_to_page()) check and this is now wrong.

Switch to checking online_section_nr() instead.

fc96df16a1ce is good and can already fix the "return stack garbage" issue,
but let's also improve hv_ringbuffer_get_debuginfo(), which would silently
return stack garbage, if people forget to check channel-&gt;state or
ring_info-&gt;ring_buffer, when using the function in the future.

Having an error check in the function would eliminate the potential risk.

Add a Fixes tag to indicate the patch depdendency.

Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of char and misc driver patches for 4.21-rc1.

  Lots of different types of driver things in here, as this tree seems
  to be the "collection of various driver subsystems not big enough to
  have their own git tree" lately.

  Anyway, some highlights of the changes in here:

   - binderfs: is it a rule that all driver subsystems will eventually
     grow to have their own filesystem? Binder now has one to handle the
     use of it in containerized systems.

     This was discussed at the Plumbers conference a few months ago and
     knocked into mergable shape very fast by Christian Brauner. Who
     also has signed up to be another binder maintainer, showing a
     distinct lack of good judgement :)

   - binder updates and fixes

   - mei driver updates

   - fpga driver updates and additions

   - thunderbolt driver updates

   - soundwire driver updates

   - extcon driver updates

   - nvmem driver updates

   - hyper-v driver updates

   - coresight driver updates

   - pvpanic driver additions and reworking for more device support

   - lp driver updates. Yes really, it's _finally_ moved to the proper
     parallal port driver model, something I never thought I would see
     happen. Good stuff.

   - other tiny driver updates and fixes.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

<title>mm: convert totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages variables to atomic</title>

totalram_pages and totalhigh_pages are made static inline function.

Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating
things.  It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 So it seemes
better to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic, with preventing
poteintial store-to-read tearing as a bonus.

Patch series "mm: convert totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages and managed
pages to atomic", v5.

This series converts totalram_pages, totalhigh_pages and
zone-&gt;managed_pages to atomic variables.

totalram_pages, zone-&gt;managed_pages and totalhigh_pages updates are
protected by managed_page_count_lock, but readers never care about it.
Convert these variables to atomic to avoid readers potentially seeing a
store tear.

Main motivation was that managed_page_count_lock handling was complicating
things.  It was discussed in length here,
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/995739/#1181785 It seemes better
to remove the lock and convert variables to atomic.  With the change,
preventing poteintial store-to-read tearing comes as a bonus.

This patch (of 4):

This is in preparation to a later patch which converts totalram_pages and
zone-&gt;managed_pages to atomic variables.  Please note that re-reading the
value might lead to a different value and as such it could lead to
unexpected behavior.  There are no known bugs as a result of the current
code but it is better to prevent from them in principle.

Before 98f4c651762c, we returned zeros for unopened channels.
With 98f4c651762c, we started to return random on-stack values.

We'd better return -EINVAL instead.
