60fa3f769f NFS: Fix two bugs in the O_DIRECT write code
Do not flag an error if the COMMIT call fails and we decide to resend the
writes. Let the resend flag the error if it fails.

If a write has failed, then nfs_direct_write_result should not attempt to
send a commit. It should just exit asap and return the error to the user.

c9c57929d2 failsafe mechanism to HPET clock calibration
Provide a failsafe mechanism to avoid kernel spinning forever at
read_hpet_tsc during early kernel bootup.

This failsafe mechanism was originally introduced in commit
2f7a2a79c3, but looks like the hpet split
from time.c lost it again.

This reintroduces the failsafe mechanism

8d3ee2cb0a [SCSI] QLOGICPTI: Do not unmap DMA unless we actually mapped something.
We only map DMA when cmd->request_bufflen is non-zero for non-sg
buffers, we thus should make the same check when unmapping.

6e3b2bbb19 [SCSI] 3w-xxxx: fix oops caused by incorrect REQUEST_SENSE handling
3w-xxxx emulates a REQUEST_SENSE response by simply returning nothing.
Unfortunately, it's assuming that the REQUEST_SENSE command is
implemented with use_sg == 0, which is no longer the case.  The oops
occurs because it's clearing the scatterlist in request_buffer instead
of the memory region.

This is fixed by using tw_transfer_internal() to transfer correctly to
the scatterlist.

d791d413fd DVB: dvb-usb-remote - fix oops when changing keymap
DVB USB remotes do not support changing keycode maps but set
input_dev->keycodesize and input_dev->keycodemax without setting
input_dev->keycode. This causes kernel oops when user tries to
look up (or change) current keymap.

While the proper fix would be to make remotes handle keymap changes
we'll just remove keycodemax and keycodesize initialization so
EVIOCGKEYCODE and EVIOCSKEYCODE will simply return -EINVAL.

49688c8431 [NETFILTER] arp_tables: Fix unaligned accesses.
There are two device string comparison loops in arp_packet_match().
The first one goes byte-by-byte but the second one tries to be
clever and cast the string to a long and compare by longs.

The device name strings in the arp table entries are not guarenteed
to be aligned enough to make this value, so just use byte-by-byte
for both cases.

279e172a58 [VLAN]: Allow VLAN interface on top of bridge interface
When a VLAN interface is created on top of a bridge interface and 
netfilter is enabled to see the bridged packets, the packets can be 
corrupted when passing through the netfilter code. This is caused by the 
VLAN driver not setting the 'protocol' and 'nh' members of the sk_buff 
structure. In general, this is no problem as the VLAN interface is mostly 
connected to a physical ethernet interface which does not use the 
'protocol' and 'nh' members. For a bridge interface, however, these 
members do matter.

390cbb56a7 [POWERPC] Fix detection of loader-supplied initrd on OF platforms
Commit 79c8541924 introduced code to move
the initrd if it was in a place where it would get overwritten by the
kernel image.  Unfortunately this exposed the fact that the code that
checks whether the values passed in r3 and r4 are intended to indicate
the start address and size of an initrd image was not as thorough as the
kernel's checks.  The symptom is that on OF-based platforms, the
bootwrapper can cause an exception which causes the system to drop back
into OF.

Previously it didn't matter so much if the code incorrectly thought that
there was an initrd, since the values for start and size were just passed
through to the kernel.  Now the bootwrapper needs to apply the same checks
as the kernel since it is now using the initrd data itself (in the process
of copying it if necessary).  This adds the code to do that.

c3724b129b [PATCH] autofs4: fix race in unhashed dentry code
Commit f50b6f8691 introduced a race in
autofs4 between autofs_lookup_unhashed() and autofs_dentry_release().

autofs_dentry_release() ends up clearing the ->dentry and ->inode members
of autofs_info before removing it from the rehash list.  The list is
protected by the rehash lock in both functions, but since
autofs_dentry_release() starts tearing the autofs_info struct down before
removing it from the list, autofs_lookup_unhashed() can get a autofs_info
with a NULL dentry.

This patch moves the clearing of ->dentry and ->inode after the removal
from the rehash list.

1d51c69fb6 [SPARC]: avoid CHILD_MAX and OPEN_MAX constants
I don't figure anyone really cares about SunOS syscall emulation, and I
certainly don't.  But I'm getting rid of uses of the OPEN_MAX and CHILD_MAX
compile-time constant, and these are almost the only ones.  OPEN_MAX is a
bogus constant with no meaning about anything.  The RLIMIT_NOFILE resource
limit is what sysconf (_SC_OPEN_MAX) actually wants to return.

The CHILD_MAX cases weren't actually using anything I want to get rid of,
but I noticed that they are there and are wrong too.  The CHILD_MAX value
is not really unlimited as a -1 return from sysconf indicates.  The
RLIMIT_NPROC resource limit is what sysconf (_SC_CHILD_MAX) wants to return.

0727702a3a [POWERPC] ibmebus: change probe/remove interface from using loc-code to DT path
In some cases, multiple OFDT nodes might share the same location code, so
the location code is not a unique identifier for an OFDT node. Changed the
ibmebus probe/remove interface to use the DT path of the device node instead
of the location code.

The DT path must be written into probe/remove right as it would appear in
the "devspec" attribute of the ebus device: relative to the DT root, with a
leading slash and without a trailing slash. One trailing newline will not
hurt; multiple newlines will (like perl's chomp()).

Example:

 Add a device "/proc/device-tree/foo@12345678" to ibmebus like this:
    echo /foo@12345678 > /sys/bus/ibmebus/probe

 Remove the device like this:
    echo /foo@12345678 > /sys/bus/ibmebus/remove

370a908db1 [POWERPC] DEBUG_PAGEALLOC for 64-bit
Here's an implementation of DEBUG_PAGEALLOC for 64 bits powerpc.
It applies on top of the 32 bits patch.

Unlike Anton's previous attempt, I'm not using updatepp. I'm removing
the hash entries from the bolted mapping (using a map in RAM of all the
slots). Expensive but it doesn't really matter, does it ? :-)

Memory hot-added doesn't benefit from this unless it's added at an
address that is below end_of_DRAM() as calculated at boot time.

ee4f2ea486 [POWERPC] Fix 32-bit mm operations when not using BATs
On hash table based 32 bits powerpc's, the hash management code runs with
a big spinlock. It's thus important that it never causes itself a hash
fault. That code is generally safe (it does memory accesses in real mode
among other things) with the exception of the actual access to the code
itself. That is, the kernel text needs to be accessible without taking
a hash miss exceptions.

This is currently guaranteed by having a BAT register mapping part of the
linear mapping permanently, which includes the kernel text. But this is
not true if using the "nobats" kernel command line option (which can be
useful for debugging) and will not be true when using DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
implemented in a subsequent patch.

This patch fixes this by pre-faulting in the hash table pages that hit
the kernel text, and making sure we never evict such a page under hash
pressure.

3be4e6990e [POWERPC] Cleanup 32-bit map_page
The 32 bits map_page() function is used internally by the mm code
for early mmu mappings and for ioremap. It should never be called
for an address that already has a valid PTE or hash entry, so we
add a BUG_ON for that and remove the useless flush_HPTE call.

a741e67969 [POWERPC] Make tlb flush batch use lazy MMU mode
The current tlb flush code on powerpc 64 bits has a subtle race since we
lost the page table lock due to the possible faulting in of new PTEs
after a previous one has been removed but before the corresponding hash
entry has been evicted, which can leads to all sort of fatal problems.

This patch reworks the batch code completely. It doesn't use the mmu_gather
stuff anymore. Instead, we use the lazy mmu hooks that were added by the
paravirt code. They have the nice property that the enter/leave lazy mmu
mode pair is always fully contained by the PTE lock for a given range
of PTEs. Thus we can guarantee that all batches are flushed on a given
CPU before it drops that lock.

We also generalize batching for any PTE update that require a flush.

Batching is now enabled on a CPU by arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and
disabled by arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). The code epects that this is
always contained within a PTE lock section so no preemption can happen
and no PTE insertion in that range from another CPU. When batching
is enabled on a CPU, every PTE updates that need a hash flush will
use the batch for that flush.
