Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Fix off-by-one in pci_resource_to_user()
The MIPS implementation of pci_resource_to_user() introduced in v3.12 by
commit 4c2924b725fb ("MIPS: PCI: Use pci_resource_to_user to map pci
memory space properly") incorrectly sets *end to the address of the
byte after the resource, rather than the last byte of the resource.
This results in userland seeing resources as a byte larger than they
actually are, for example a 32 byte BAR will be reported by a tool such
as lspci as being 33 bytes in size:
Region 2: I/O ports at 1000 [disabled] [size=33]
Correct this by subtracting one from the calculated end address,
reporting the correct address to userland.

Subject: ipc/shm.c add ->pagesize function to shm_vm_ops
05ea88608d4e13 (mm, hugetlbfs: introduce ->pagesize() to
vm_operations_struct) adds a new ->pagesize() function to hugetlb_vm_ops,
intended to cover all hugetlbfs backed files.
With System V shared memory model, if "huge page" is specified, the
"shared memory" is backed by hugetlbfs files, but the mappings initiated
via shmget/shmat have their original vm_ops overwritten with shm_vm_ops,
so we need to add a ->pagesize function to shm_vm_ops. Otherwise,
vma_kernel_pagesize() returns PAGE_SIZE given a hugetlbfs backed vma,
result in below BUG:

From: Shakeel Butt <shakeelb(a)google.com>
Subject: kvm, mm: account shadow page tables to kmemcg
The size of kvm's shadow page tables corresponds to the size of the guest
virtual machines on the system. Large VMs can spend a significant amount
of memory as shadow page tables which can not be left as system memory
overhead. So, account shadow page tables to the kmemcg.

The patch titled
Subject: mm: introduce vma_init()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-introduce-vma_init.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov(a)linux.intel.com>
Subject: mm: introduce vma_init()
Not all VMAs allocated with vm_area_alloc(). Some of them allocated on
stack or in data segment.
The new helper can be use to initialize VMA properly regardless where it
was allocated.
