commit 0a41409c51 upstream, but doesn't
apply, so this version is different for older kernels than 3.7.x
blk_alloc_queue has already done a bdi_init, so do not bdi_init
again in aoeblk_gdalloc. The extra call causes list corruption
in the per-CPU backing dev info stats lists.
Affected users see console WARNINGs about list_del corruption on
percpu_counter_destroy when doing "rmmod aoe" or "aoeflush -a"
when AoE targets have been detected and initialized by the
system.
The patch below applies to v3.6.11, with its v47 aoe driver. It
is expected to apply to all currently maintained stable kernels
except 3.7.y. A related but different fix has been posted for
3.7.y.

commit f6365201d8 upstream.
The X86_32-only disable_hlt/enable_hlt mechanism was used by the
32-bit floppy driver. Its effect was to replace the use of the
HLT instruction inside default_idle() with cpu_relax() - essentially
it turned off the use of HLT.
This workaround was commented in the code as:
"disable hlt during certain critical i/o operations"
"This halt magic was a workaround for ancient floppy DMA
wreckage. It should be safe to remove."
H. Peter Anvin additionally adds:
"To the best of my knowledge, no-hlt only existed because of
flaky power distributions on 386/486 systems which were sold to
run DOS. Since DOS did no power management of any kind,
including HLT, the power draw was fairly uniform; when exposed
to the much hhigher noise levels you got when Linux used HLT
caused some of these systems to fail.
They were by far in the minority even back then."
Alan Cox further says:
"Also for the Cyrix 5510 which tended to go castors up if a HLT
occurred during a DMA cycle and on a few other boxes HLT during
DMA tended to go astray.
Do we care ? I doubt it. The 5510 was pretty obscure, the 5520
fixed it, the 5530 is probably the oldest still in any kind of
use."
So, let's finally drop this.

commit 2453f5f992 upstream.
If a command completes with a status of CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR, this
information should be conveyed to the SCSI mid layer, not dropped
on the floor. Unlike a similar bug in the hpsa driver, this bug
only affects tape drives and CD and DVD ROM drives in the cciss
driver, and to induce it, you have to disconnect (or damage) a
cable, so it is not a very likely scenario (which would explain
why the bug has gone undetected for the last 10 years.)

The last commit, drbd: add missing spinlock to bitmap receive,
introduced a cond_resched_lock(), where the lock in question is taken
with irqs disabled.
As we must not schedule with IRQs disabled,
and cond_resched_lock_irq() does not exist, yet,
we re-aquire the spin_lock_irq() for each bitmap page processed in turn.

During bitmap exchange, when using the RLE bitmap compression scheme,
we have a code path that can set the whole bitmap at once.
To avoid holding spin_lock_irq() for too long, we used to lock out other
bitmap modifications during bitmap exchange by other means, and then,
knowing we have exclusive access to the bitmap, modify it without
the spinlock, and with IRQs enabled.
Since we now allow local IO to continue, potentially setting additional
bits during the bitmap receive phase, this is no longer true, and we get
uncoordinated updates of bitmap members, causing bm_set to no longer
accurately reflect the total number of set bits.
To actually see this, you'd need to have a large bitmap, use RLE bitmap
compression, and have busy IO during sync handshake and bitmap exchange.
Fix this by taking the spin_lock_irq() in this code path as well, but
calling cond_resched_lock() after each page worth of bits processed.

The 'max_part' parameter determines how many partitions are supported
on each nbd device. However the actual number can be changed to the
power of 2 minus 1 form during the module initialization as
alloc_disk() is called with (1 << part_shift) for some reason.
So adjust 'max_part' also at least for consistency with loop and brd.
It is exported via sysfs already, and a user should check this value
