With commit c814a4c7c4, the meaning of tempX_max
was changed. It no longer returns the value of bits 8:15 of
MSR_IA32_TEMPERATURE_TARGET, but instead returns the value of CPU threshold
register T1. tempX_max_hyst was added to reflect the value of temperature
threshold register T0.
As it turns out, T0 and T1 are used on some systems, presumably by the BIOS.
Also, T0 and T1 don't have a well defined meaning. The thresholds may be used
as upper or lower limits, and it is not guaranteed that T0 <= T1. Thus, the new
attribute mapping does not reflect the actual usage of the threshold registers.
Also, register contents are changed during runtime by an entity other than the
hwmon driver, meaning the values cached by the driver do not reflect actual
register contents.
Revert most of c814a4c7c4 to address the problem.
Support for T0 and T1 will be added back in with a separate commit, using new
attribute names.

On old CPUs (and even some recent Atom CPUs) TjMax can't be read from
the CPU registers, so it is guessed by the driver using a complex
heuristic which isn't reliable. So let users who know their CPU's
TjMax pass it as a module parameter.

This patch improves the logic determining when to send ICMPv6 Router
Solicitations, so that they are 1) always sent when the kernel is
accepting Router Advertisements, and 2) never sent when the kernel is
not accepting RAs. In other words, the operational setting of the
"accept_ra" sysctl is used.
The change also makes the special "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode
("forwarding" sysctl set to 2) operate exactly the same as the standard
Router mode (forwarding=1). The only difference between the two was
that RSes was being sent in the Hybrid Router mode only. The sysctl
documentation describing the special Hybrid Router mode has therefore
been removed.
Rationale for the change:
Currently, the value of forwarding sysctl is the only thing determining
whether or not to send RSes. If it has the value 0 or 2, they are sent,
otherwise they are not. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in the
following cases:
* accept_ra=0, forwarding=0
* accept_ra=0, forwarding=2
* accept_ra=1, forwarding=2
* accept_ra=2, forwarding=1
In the first three cases, the kernel will send RSes, even though it will
not accept any RAs received in reply. In the last case, it will not send
any RSes, even though it will accept and process any RAs received. (Most
routers will send unsolicited RAs periodically, so suppressing RSes in
the last case will merely delay auto-configuration, not prevent it.)
Also, it is my opinion that having the forwarding sysctl control RS
sending behaviour (completely independent of whether RAs are being
accepted or not) is simply not what most users would intuitively expect
to be the case.

Revert the post-3.0 commit 82f9d486e5 ("memcg: add
memory.vmscan_stat").
The implementation of per-memcg reclaim statistics violates how memcg
hierarchies usually behave: hierarchically.
The reclaim statistics are accounted to child memcgs and the parent
hitting the limit, but not to hierarchy levels in between. Usually,
hierarchical statistics are perfectly recursive, with each level
representing the sum of itself and all its children.
Since this exports statistics to userspace, this may lead to confusion
and problems with changing things after the release, so revert it now,
we can try again later.
