e07832b662 IPoIB: Fix race in detaching from mcast group before attaching
There's a race between ipoib_mcast_leave() and ipoib_mcast_join_finish()
where we can try to detach from a multicast group before we've
attached to it.  Fix this by reordering the code in ipoib_mcast_leave
to free the multicast group first, which waits for the multicast
callback thread (which calls ipoib_mcast_join_finish()) to complete
before detaching from the group.

60a596dab7 IPoIB/cm: Fix reaping of stale connections
The sense of the time_after_eq() test in ipoib_cm_stale_task() is
reversed so that only non-stale connections are reaped.  Fix this by
changing to time_before_eq().

848c29fd64 [NETFILTER]: nat: avoid rerouting packets if only XFRM policy key changed
Currently NAT not only reroutes packets in the OUTPUT chain when the
routing key changed, but also if only the non-routing part of the
IPsec policy key changed. This breaks ping -I since it doesn't use
SO_BINDTODEVICE but IP_PKTINFO cmsg to specify the output device, and
this information is lost.

Only do full rerouting if the routing key changed, and just do a new
policy lookup with the old route if only the ports changed.

b4aea36b79 [POWERPC] Avoid hypervisor statistics calculation in real mode
kexec invokes plpar_hcall hypervisor call in real mode.  plpar_hcall
refers to per cpu variables for accounting hypervisor statistics.
These variables may not be in the RMO region, so accesses to them
in real mode may result in a data storage exception.

This fixes this problem by using a new plpar_hcall_raw function which
does not update the hypervisor call statistics.  Thanks to Anton for
suggesting this idea.

58e40308f3 [CRYPTO] doc: Fix typo in hash example
there is a tiny bug in Documentation/crypto/api-intro.txt.
The file has the following example code:

struct scatterlist sg[2];
[...]
if (crypto_hash_digest(&desc, &sg, 2, result))

which does not match the declaration of crypto_hash_digest() in
include/linux/crypto.h.

(static inline int crypto_hash_digest(struct hash_desc *desc,
	struct scatterlist *sg, unsigned int nbytes, u8 *out)

The code in the example passes the address of a pointer (an array actually) as
the second argument, while the function expects the pointer itself.

I have attached a patch to fix this.

f70ee5ec8f [CRYPTO] api: scatterwalk_copychunks() fails to advance through scatterlist
In the loop in scatterwalk_copychunks(), if walk->offset is zero,
then scatterwalk_pagedone rounds that up to the nearest page boundary:

		walk->offset += PAGE_SIZE - 1;
		walk->offset &= PAGE_MASK;

which is a no-op in this case, so we don't advance to the next element
of the scatterlist array:

		if (walk->offset >= walk->sg->offset + walk->sg->length)
			scatterwalk_start(walk, sg_next(walk->sg));

and we end up copying the same data twice.

It appears that other callers of scatterwalk_{page}done first advance
walk->offset, so I believe that's the correct thing to do here.

This caused a bug in NFS when run with krb5p security, which would
cause some writes to fail with permissions errors--for example, writes
of less than 8 bytes (the des blocksize) at the start of a file.

A git-bisect shows the bug was originally introduced by
5c64097aa0, first in 2.6.19-rc1.

However, only the root is set but not the parent/child/sibling relationship in

area. Depding on the poition in the tree the iomem may be nearly completely

c5e83e3f42 [IA64] Fix get_model_name() for mixed cpu type systems
If a system consists of mixed processor types, kmalloc()
can be called before the per-cpu data page is initialized.
If the slab contains sufficient memory, then kmalloc() works
ok. However, if the slabs are empty, slab calls the memory
allocator. This requires per-cpu data (NODE_DATA()) & the
cpu dies.

Also noted by Russ Anderson who had a very similar patch.

a3f5c338b9 [IA64] min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation fix
We have seen bad_pte_print when testing crashdump on an SN machine in
recent 2.6.20 kernel.  There are tons of bad pte print (pfn < max_low_pfn)
reports when the crash kernel boots up, all those reported bad pages
are inside initmem range; That is because if the crash kernel code and
data happens to be at the beginning of the 1st node. build_node_maps in
discontig.c will bypass reserved regions with filter_rsvd_memory. Since
min_low_pfn is calculated in build_node_map, so in this case, min_low_pfn
will be greater than kernel code and data.

Because pages inside initmem are freed and reused later, we saw
pfn_valid check fail on those pages.

I think this theoretically happen on a normal kernel. When I check
min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation in contig.c and discontig.c.
I found more issues than this.

1. min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is inconsistent between
contig.c and discontig.c,
min_low_pfn is calculated as the first page number of boot memmap in
contig.c (Why? Though this may work at the most of the time, I don't
think it is the right logic). It is calculated as the lowest physical
memory page number bypass reserved regions in discontig.c.
max_low_pfn is calculated include reserved regions in contig.c. It is
calculated exclude reserved regions in discontig.c.

2. If kernel code and data region is happen to be at the begin or the
end of physical memory, when min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn calculation is
bypassed kernel code and data, pages in initmem will report bad.

3. initrd is also in reserved regions, if it is at the begin or at the
end of physical memory, kernel will refuse to reuse the memory. Because
the virt_addr_valid check in free_initrd_mem.

So it is better to fix and clean up those issues.
Calculate min_low_pfn and max_low_pfn in a consistent way.
