Some exported functions in af_alg.c aren't used outside of that file.
Therefore, un-export them and make them 'static'.

<title>Revert changes to convert to -&gt;poll_mask() and aio IOCB_CMD_POLL</title>

The poll() changes were not well thought out, and completely
unexplained.  They also caused a huge performance regression, because
"-&gt;poll()" was no longer a trivial file operation that just called down
to the underlying file operations, but instead did at least two indirect
calls.

Indirect calls are sadly slow now with the Spectre mitigation, but the
performance problem could at least be largely mitigated by changing the
"-&gt;get_poll_head()" operation to just have a per-file-descriptor pointer
to the poll head instead.  That gets rid of one of the new indirections.

But that doesn't fix the new complexity that is completely unwarranted
for the regular case.  The (undocumented) reason for the poll() changes
was some alleged AIO poll race fixing, but we don't make the common case
slower and more complex for some uncommon special case, so this all
really needs way more explanations and most likely a fundamental
redesign.

[ This revert is a revert of about 30 different commits, not reverted
  individually because that would just be unnecessarily messy  - Linus ]

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
 "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
  the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
  'make -&gt;poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
  variables used to hold the future return value'.

  Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
  misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
  low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. -&gt;poll() instance
  deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
  in this series - it's large enough as it is.

  Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
  eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
  equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
  arch-independent, but POLL### are not.

  The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
  the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
  in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
  is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
  work on all architectures.

  As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
  it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
  architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
  at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
  architectures"

The code paths protected by the socket-lock do not use or modify the
socket in a non-atomic fashion. The actions pertaining the socket do not
even need to be handled as an atomic operation. Thus, the socket-lock
can be safely ignored.

This fixes a bug regarding scheduling in atomic as the callback function
may be invoked in interrupt context.

In addition, the sock_hold is moved before the AIO encrypt/decrypt
operation to ensure that the socket is always present. This avoids a
tiny race window where the socket is unprotected and yet used by the AIO
operation.

Finally, the release of resources for a crypto operation is moved into a
common function of af_alg_free_resources.

aead_async_cb, skcipher_async_cb -&gt; af_alg_async_cb
aead_poll, skcipher_poll -&gt; af_alg_poll

Split out the following common code from recvmsg:

af_alg_alloc_areq: allocation of the request data structure for the
cipher operation

af_alg_get_rsgl: creation of the RX SGL anchored in the request data
structure

The following changes to the implementation without affecting the
functionality have been applied to synchronize slightly different code
bases in algif_skcipher and algif_aead:

The wakeup in af_alg_wait_for_data is triggered when either more data
is received or the indicator that more data is to be expected is
released. The first is triggered by user space, the second is
triggered by the kernel upon finishing the processing of data
(i.e. the kernel is ready for more).

af_alg_sendmsg uses size_t in min_t calculation for obtaining len.
Return code determination is consistent with algif_skcipher. The
scope of the variable i is reduced to match algif_aead. The type of the
variable i is switched from int to unsigned int to match algif_aead.

af_alg_sendpage does not contain the superfluous err = 0 from
aead_sendpage.

af_alg_async_cb requires to store the number of output bytes in
areq-&gt;outlen before the AIO callback is triggered.

The POLLIN / POLLRDNORM is now set when either not more data is given or
the kernel is supplied with data. This is consistent to the wakeup from
sleep when the kernel waits for data.

The request data structure is extended by the field last_rsgl which
points to the last RX SGL list entry. This shall help recvmsg
implementation to chain the RX SGL to other SG(L)s if needed. It is
currently used by algif_aead which chains the tag SGL to the RX SGL
during decryption.

<title>net: Work around lockdep limitation in sockets that use sockets</title>

<id>urn:sha1:cdfbabfb2f0ce983fdaa42f20e5f7842178fc01e</id>
<content type='text'>
Lockdep issues a circular dependency warning when AFS issues an operation
through AF_RXRPC from a context in which the VFS/VM holds the mmap_sem.

The theory lockdep comes up with is as follows:

 (1) If the pagefault handler decides it needs to read pages from AFS, it
     calls AFS with mmap_sem held and AFS begins an AF_RXRPC call, but
     creating a call requires the socket lock:

	mmap_sem must be taken before sk_lock-AF_RXRPC

 (2) afs_open_socket() opens an AF_RXRPC socket and binds it.  rxrpc_bind()
     binds the underlying UDP socket whilst holding its socket lock.
     inet_bind() takes its own socket lock:

	sk_lock-AF_RXRPC must be taken before sk_lock-AF_INET

 (3) Reading from a TCP socket into a userspace buffer might cause a fault
     and thus cause the kernel to take the mmap_sem, but the TCP socket is
     locked whilst doing this:

	sk_lock-AF_INET must be taken before mmap_sem

However, lockdep's theory is wrong in this instance because it deals only
with lock classes and not individual locks.  The AF_INET lock in (2) isn't
really equivalent to the AF_INET lock in (3) as the former deals with a
socket entirely internal to the kernel that never sees userspace.  This is
a limitation in the design of lockdep.

Fix the general case by:

 (1) Double up all the locking keys used in sockets so that one set are
     used if the socket is created by userspace and the other set is used
     if the socket is created by the kernel.

 (2) Store the kern parameter passed to sk_alloc() in a variable in the
     sock struct (sk_kern_sock).  This informs sock_lock_init(),
     sock_init_data() and sk_clone_lock() as to the lock keys to be used.

     Note that the child created by sk_clone_lock() inherits the parent's
     kern setting.

 (3) Add a 'kern' parameter to -&gt;accept() that is analogous to the one
     passed in to -&gt;create() that distinguishes whether kernel_accept() or
     sys_accept4() was the caller and can be passed to sk_alloc().

     Note that a lot of accept functions merely dequeue an already
     allocated socket.  I haven't touched these as the new socket already
     exists before we get the parameter.

     Note also that there are a couple of places where I've made the accepted
     socket unconditionally kernel-based:

	irda_accept()
	rds_rcp_accept_one()
	tcp_accept_from_sock()

     because they follow a sock_create_kern() and accept off of that.

Whilst creating this, I noticed that lustre and ocfs don't create sockets
through sock_create_kern() and thus they aren't marked as for-kernel,
though they appear to be internal.  I wonder if these should do that so
that they use the new set of lock keys.
