b8534d7bd8 [PATCH] taskstats: kill ->taskstats_lock in favor of ->siglock
signal_struct is (mostly) protected by ->sighand->siglock, I think we don't
need ->taskstats_lock to protect ->stats.  This also allows us to simplify the
locking in fill_tgid().

093a8e8aec [PATCH] taskstats_tgid_free: fix usage
taskstats_tgid_free() is called on copy_process's error path. This is wrong.

	IF (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD)
		We should not clear ->signal->taskstats, current uses it,
		it probably has a valid accumulated info.
	ELSE
		taskstats_tgid_init() set ->signal->taskstats = NULL,
		there is nothing to free.

Move the callsite to __exit_signal(). We don't need any locking, entire
thread group is exiting, nobody should have a reference to soon to be
released ->signal.

52fd24ca1d [PATCH] __vmalloc with GFP_ATOMIC causes 'sleeping from invalid context'
If __vmalloc is called to allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC in atomic
context, the chain of calls results in __get_vm_area_node allocating memory
for vm_struct with GFP_KERNEL, causing the 'sleeping from invalid context'
warning.  This patch fixes it by passing the gfp flags along so
__get_vm_area_node allocates memory for vm_struct with the same flags.

3bb1a852ab [PATCH] vmscan: Fix temp_priority race
The temp_priority field in zone is racy, as we can walk through a reclaim
path, and just before we copy it into prev_priority, it can be overwritten
(say with DEF_PRIORITY) by another reclaimer.

The same bug is contained in both try_to_free_pages and balance_pgdat, but
it is fixed slightly differently.  In balance_pgdat, we keep a separate
priority record per zone in a local array.  In try_to_free_pages there is
no need to do this, as the priority level is the same for all zones that we
reclaim from.

Impact of this bug is that temp_priority is copied into prev_priority, and
setting this artificially high causes reclaimers to set distress
artificially low.  They then fail to reclaim mapped pages, when they are,
in fact, under severe memory pressure (their priority may be as low as 0).
This causes the OOM killer to fire incorrectly.

From: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>

__zone_reclaim() isn't modifying zone->prev_priority.  But zone->prev_priority
is used in the decision whether or not to bring mapped pages onto the inactive
list.  Hence there's a risk here that __zone_reclaim() will fail because
zone->prev_priority ir large (ie: low urgency) and lots of mapped pages end up
stuck on the active list.

Fix that up by decreasing (ie making more urgent) zone->prev_priority as
__zone_reclaim() scans the zone's pages.

This bug perhaps explains why ZONE_RECLAIM_PRIORITY was created.  It should be
possible to remove that now, and to just start out at DEF_PRIORITY?

735a7ffb73 [PATCH] drivers: wait for threaded probes between initcall levels
The multithreaded-probing code has a problem: after one initcall level (eg,
core_initcall) has been processed, we will then start processing the next
level (postcore_initcall) while the kernel threads which are handling
core_initcall are still executing.  This breaks the guarantees which the
layered initcalls previously gave us.

IOW, we want to be multithreaded _within_ an initcall level, but not between
different levels.

Fix that up by causing the probing code to wait for all outstanding probes at
one level to complete before we start processing the next level.

A number of new drivers require io{read,write}{8,16,32}{be,} family of io

a series of macros.

Access to the (memory mapped) io space through these macros is defined to
be little endian only as little endian devices (such as PCI) are the main
consumer of IO access.  If high speed access is required,
io{read,write}{16,32}be macros are supplied to perform native big endian
access to this io space.

43a145a344 [SCSI] iscsi class: fix slab corruption during restart
The transport class recv mempools are causing slab corruption.
We could hack around netlink's lack of mempool support like dm,
but it is just too ulgy (dm's hack is ugly enough :) when you need

This patch removes the recv pools. We have not used them even when
we were allocting 20 MB per session and the system only had 64 MBs.
And we have no pools on the send side and have been ok there. When
Peter's work gets merged we can use that since the network guys
are in favor of that approach and are not going to add mempools
everywhere.

859deea949 [POWERPC] Cell timebase bug workaround
The Cell CPU timebase has an erratum. When reading the entire 64 bits
of the timebase with one mftb instruction, there is a handful of cycles
window during which one might read a value with the low order 32 bits
already reset to 0x00000000 but the high order bits not yet incremeted
by one. This fixes it by reading the timebase again until the low order
32 bits is no longer 0. That might introduce occasional latencies if
hitting mftb just at the wrong time, but no more than 70ns on a cell
blade, and that was considered acceptable.

0909c8c2d5 [POWERPC] Support feature fixups in vdso's
This patch reworks the feature fixup mecanism so vdso's can be fixed up.
The main issue was that the construct:

        .long   label  (or .llong on 64 bits)

will not work in the case of a shared library like the vdso. It will
generate an empty placeholder in the fixup table along with a reloc,
which is not something we can deal with in the vdso.

The idea here (thanks Alan Modra !) is to instead use something like:

1:
        .long   label - 1b

That is, the feature fixup tables no longer contain addresses of bits of
code to patch, but offsets of such code from the fixup table entry
itself. That is properly resolved by ld when building the .so's. I've
modified the fixup mecanism generically to use that method for the rest
of the kernel as well.

Another trick is that the 32 bits vDSO included in the 64 bits kernel
need to have a table in the 64 bits format. However, gas does not
support 32 bits code with a statement of the form:

        .llong  label - 1b  (Or even just .llong label)

That is, it cannot emit the right fixup/relocation for the linker to use
to assign a 32 bits address to an .llong field. Thus, in the specific
case of the 32 bits vdso built as part of the 64 bits kernel, we are
using a modified macro that generates:

        .long   0xffffffff
        .llong  label - 1b

Note that is assumes that the value is negative which is enforced by
the .lds (those offsets are always negative as the .text is always
before the fixup table and gas doesn't support emiting the reloc the
other way around).

42c4aaadb7 [POWERPC] Consolidate feature fixup code
There are currently two versions of the functions for applying the
feature fixups, one for CPU features and one for firmware features. In
addition, they are both in assembly and with separate implementations
for 32 and 64 bits. identify_cpu() is also implemented in assembly and
separately for 32 and 64 bits.

This patch replaces them with a pair of C functions. The call sites are
slightly moved on ppc64 as well to be called from C instead of from
assembly, though it's a very small change, and thus shouldn't cause any
problem.

70a0a5357d [PATCH] x86-64: Only look at per_cpu data for online cpus.
When I generalized __assign_irq_vector I failed to pay attention
to what happens when you access a per cpu data structure for
a cpu that is not online.   It is an undefined case making any
code that does it have undefined behavior as well.

The code still needs to be able to allocate a vector across cpus
that are not online to properly handle combinations like lowest
priority interrupt delivery and cpu_hotplug.  Not that we can do
that today but the infrastructure shouldn't prevent it.

So this patch updates the places where we touch per cpu data
to only touch online cpus, it makes cpu vector allocation
an atomic operation with respect to cpu hotplug, and it updates
the cpu start code to properly initialize vector_irq so we
don't have inconsistencies.

04fed361da [PATCH] Remove __must_check for device_for_each_child()
Eliminate more __must_check madness.

The return code from device_for_each_child() depends on the values
which the helper function returns.  If the helper function always
returns zero, it's utterly pointless to check the return code from
device_for_each_child().

The only code which knows if the return value should be checked is
the caller itself, so forcing the return code to always be checked
is silly.  Hence, remove the __must_check annotation.

a94b1d1fd7 [SPARC64]: 8-byte align return value from compat_alloc_user_space()
Otherwise we get a ton of unaligned exceptions, for cases such
as compat_sys_msgrcv() which go:

	p = compat_alloc_user_space(second + sizeof(struct msgbuf));

and here 'second' can for example be an arbitrary odd value.

Based upon a bug report from Jurij Smakov.

185b1aa122 [NET]: Reduce sizeof(struct flowi) by 20 bytes.
As suggested by David, just kill off some unused fields in dnports to
reduce sizef(struct flowi). If they come back, they should be moved to
nl_u.dn_u in order not to enlarge again struct flowi

f8829caee3 [MIPS] Fix aliasing bug in copy_to_user_page / copy_from_user_page
The current implementation uses a sequence of a cacheflush and a copy.
This is racy in case of a multithreaded debuggee and renders GDB
virtually unusable.

Aside this fixes a performance hog rendering access to /proc/cmdline very
slow and resulting in a enough cache stalls for the 34K AP/SP programming
model to make the bare metal code on the non-Linux VPE miss RT deadlines.

The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle;
Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging.

faf6bbcf94 [PATCH] cpuset: mempolicy migration typo fix
Mistyped an ifdef CONFIG_CPUSETS - fixed.

I doubt that anyone ever noticed.  The impact of this typo was
that if someone:
 1) was using MPOL_BIND to force off node allocations
 2) while using cpusets to constrain memory placement
 3) when that cpuset was migrating that jobs memory
 4) while the tasks in that job were actively forking
then there was a rare chance that future allocations using
that MPOL_BIND policy would be node local, not off node.
