79cb1819e2 [SCSI] add preliminary expander support to the sas transport class
This patch makes expanders appear as labelled objects with properties in
the SAS tree.

I've also modified the phy code to make expander phys appear labelled by
host number, expander number and phy index.

So, for my current config, you see something like this in sysfs:

/sys/class/scsi_host/host1/device/phy-1:4/expander-1:0/phy-1-0:12/rphy-1:0-12/target1:0:1

And the expander properties are:

jejb@sparkweed> cd /sys/class/sas_expander/expander-1\:0/
jejb@sparkweed> for f in *; do echo -n $f ": "; cat $f; done

6796313263 [PATCH] Plug kdump shutdown race window
lapic_shutdown() re-enables interrupts which is un-desirable for panic
case, so use local_irq_save() and local_irq_restore() to keep the irqs
disabled for kexec on panic case, and close a possible race window while
kdump shutdown as shown in this stack trace

ceb2ca9cb0 [PATCH] EDAC: disable sysfs interface
- Disable the EDAC sysfs code.  The sysfs interface that EDAC presents to
  user space needs more thought, and is likely to change substantially.
  Therefore disable it for now so users don't start depending on it in its
  current form.

- Disable the default behavior of calling panic() when an uncorrectible
  error is detected (since for now, there is no sysfs interface that allows
  the user to configure this behavior).

143f412eb4 [PATCH] NFS: Fix a potential panic in O_DIRECT
Based on an original patch by Mike O'Connor and Greg Banks of SGI.

Mike states:

A normal user can panic an NFS client and cause a local DoS with
'judicious'(?) use of O_DIRECT.  Any O_DIRECT write to an NFS file where the
user buffer starts with a valid mapped page and contains an unmapped page,
will crash in this way.  I haven't followed the code, but O_DIRECT reads with
similar user buffers will probably also crash albeit in different ways.

Details: when nfs_get_user_pages() calls get_user_pages(), it detects and
correctly handles get_user_pages() returning an error, which happens if the
first page covered by the user buffer's address range is unmapped.  However,
if the first page is mapped but some subsequent page isn't, get_user_pages()
will return a positive number which is less than the number of pages requested
(this behaviour is sort of analagous to a short write() call and appears to be
intentional).  nfs_get_user_pages() doesn't detect this and hands off the
array of pages (whose last few elements are random rubbish from the newly
allocated array memory) to it's caller, whence they go to
nfs_direct_write_seg(), which then totally ignores the nr_pages it's given,
and calculates its own idea of how many pages are in the array from the user
buffer length.  Needless to say, when it comes to transmit those uninitialised
page* pointers, we see a crash in the network stack.

f9a3879abf [PATCH] Fix sigaltstack corruption among cloned threads
This patch fixes alternate signal stack corruption among cloned threads
with CLONE_SIGHAND (and CLONE_VM) for linux-2.6.16-rc6.

The value of alternate signal stack is currently inherited after a call of
clone(...  CLONE_SIGHAND | CLONE_VM).  But if sigaltstack is set by a
parent thread, and then if multiple cloned child threads (+ parent threads)
call signal handler at the same time, some threads may be conflicted -
because they share to use the same alternative signal stack region.
Finally they get sigsegv.  It's an undesirable race condition.  Note that
child threads created from NPTL pthread_create() also hit this conflict
when the parent thread uses sigaltstack, without my patch.

To fix this problem, this patch clears the child threads' sigaltstack
information like exec().  This behavior follows the SUSv3 specification.
In SUSv3, pthread_create() says "The alternate stack shall not be inherited
(when new threads are initialized)".  It means that sigaltstack should be
cleared when sigaltstack memory space is shared by cloned threads with
CLONE_SIGHAND.

Note that I chose "if (clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND)" line because:
  - If clone_flags line is not existed, fork() does not inherit sigaltstack.
  - CLONE_VM is another choice, but vfork() does not inherit sigaltstack.
  - CLONE_SIGHAND implies CLONE_VM, and it looks suitable.
  - CLONE_THREAD is another candidate, and includes CLONE_SIGHAND + CLONE_VM,
    but this flag has a bit different semantics.
I decided to use CLONE_SIGHAND.

[ Changed to test for CLONE_VM && !CLONE_VFORK after discussion --Linus ]

0293ce3a9f [XFS] 929045 567344 This mod introduces multi-level in-core file extent
functionality, building upon the new layout introduced in mod
xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207390a.  The new multi-level extent allocations are
only required for heavily fragmented files, so the old-style linear extent
list is used on files until the extents reach a pre-determined size of 4k.
4k buffers are used because this is the system page size on Linux i386 and
systems with larger page sizes don't seem to gain much, if anything, by
using their native page size as the extent buffer size. Also, using 4k
extent buffers everywhere provides a consistent interface for CXFS across
different platforms.  The 4k extent buffers are managed by an indirection
array (xfs_ext_irec_t) which is basically just a pointer array with a bit
of extra information to keep track of the number of extents in each buffer
as well as the extent offset of each buffer.  Major changes include:  -
Add multi-level in-core file extent functionality to the xfs_iext_  
subroutines introduced in mod:	xfs-linux:xfs-kern:207390a  - Introduce 13
new subroutines which add functionality for multi-level   in-core file
extents:	 xfs_iext_add_indirect_multi()	      
xfs_iext_remove_indirect()	   xfs_iext_realloc_indirect()	      
xfs_iext_indirect_to_direct()	      xfs_iext_bno_to_irec()

xfs_iext_irec_new()	    xfs_iext_irec_remove()	  
xfs_iext_irec_compact() 	xfs_iext_irec_compact_pages()

subroutines above):	    xfs_iext_realloc() -replaced by xfs_iext_add()
and xfs_iext_remove()	      xfs_bmap_insert_exlist() - replaced by
xfs_iext_insert()	  xfs_bmap_delete_exlist() - replaced by
xfs_iext_remove() - Replace all hard-coded (indexed) extent assignments
with a call to	 xfs_iext_get_ext() - Replace all extent record pointer
arithmetic (ep++, ep--, base + lastx,..)   with calls to
xfs_iext_get_ext() - Update comments to remove the idea of a single
"extent list" and   introduce "extent record" terminology instead

8d280b98cf [XFS] On machines with more than 8 cpus, when running parallel I/O
threads, the incore superblock lock becomes the limiting factor for
buffered write throughput. Make the contended fields in the incore
superblock use per-cpu counters so that there is no global lock to limit
scalability.

0c9512d746 [XFS] find_exported_dentry(). XFS does not need to use this symbol as it
is provided by a vector through the superblock export operations when the
filesystem is exported by NFS. The fix is to call that vector instead of
using the exported symbol directly.

82dfdcae0d powerpc: Disallow lparcfg being a module
The lparcfg code needs several things which are pretty arcane internal
details and which we don't want to export, which means that lparcfg
doesn't work when built as a module.  This makes it a bool instead of
a tristate in the Kconfig so that users can't try to build it as a
module.

3759fa9c55 [TCP]: Fix zero port problem in IPv6
When we link a socket into the hash table, we need to make sure that we
set the num/port fields so that it shows us with a non-zero port value
in proc/netlink and on the wire.  This code and comment is copied over
from the IPv4 stack as is.

c829c39416 [SCSI] FC transport : Avoid device offline cases by stalling aborts until device unblocked
This moves the eh_timed_out functionality from the scsi_host_template
to the transport_template. Given that this is now a transport function,
the EH_RESET_TIMER case no longer caps the timer reschedulings. The
transport guarantees that this is not an infinite condition.

c33d4568ac [PATCH] x86-64: Fix up handling of non canonical user RIPs
EM64T CPUs have somewhat weird error reporting for non canonical RIPs in
SYSRET.

We can't handle any exceptions there because the exception handler would
end up running on the user stack which is unsafe.

To avoid problems any code that might end up with a user touched pt_regs
should return using int_ret_from_syscall.  int_ret_from_syscall ends up
using IRET, which allows safe exceptions.
