To make some half-assembly stubs compile, disable various "hardened" GCC
features:
*) we can't make it build PIC code as we need %ebx to do syscalls and GCC
wants it free for PIC
*) we can't leave stack protection as the stub is moved (not relocated!) in
memory so the RIP-relative access to the canary tries reading from an
unmapped address and causes a segfault, since we move the stub of various
megabytes (the exact amount will be decided at runtime) away from the
link-time address.

When retrying a failed BIO_RW_BARRIER request, we need to keep the reference
in ->nr_pending over the whole retry. Currently, we only hold the reference
if the failed request is the *last* one to finish - which is silly, because it
would normally be the first to finish.
So move the rdev_dec_pending call up into the didn't-fail branch. As the rdev
isn't used in the later code, calling rdev_dec_pending earlier doesn't hurt.

The pipe ->map() method uses kmap() to virtually map the pages, which

instead.

The ->map() function is really expensive on highmem machines right now,
since it has to use the slower kmap() instead of kmap_atomic(). Splice
rarely needs to access the virtual address of a page, so it's a waste
of time doing it.
Introduce ->pin() to take over the responsibility of making sure the
page data is valid. ->map() is then reduced to just kmap(). That way we
can also share a most of the pipe buffer ops between pipe.c and splice.c

Found by Oleg Nesterov <oleg@tv-sign.ru>, fixed by me.
- Only allow full pages to go to the page cache.
- Check page != buf->page instead of using PIPE_BUF_FLAG_STOLEN.
- Remember to clear 'stolen' if add_to_page_cache() fails.
And as a cleanup on that:
- Make the bottom fall-through logic a little less convoluted. Also make
the steal path hold an extra reference to the page, so we don't have
to differentiate between stolen and non-stolen at the end.

1) The audit_ipc_perms() function has been split into two different
functions:
- audit_ipc_obj()
- audit_ipc_set_perm()
There's a key shift here... The audit_ipc_obj() collects the uid, gid,
mode, and SElinux context label of the current ipc object. This
audit_ipc_obj() hook is now found in several places. Most notably, it
is hooked in ipcperms(), which is called in various places around the
ipc code permforming a MAC check. Additionally there are several places
where *checkid() is used to validate that an operation is being
performed on a valid object while not necessarily having a nearby
ipcperms() call. In these locations, audit_ipc_obj() is called to
ensure that the information is captured by the audit system.
The audit_set_new_perm() function is called any time the permissions on
the ipc object changes. In this case, the NEW permissions are recorded
(and note that an audit_ipc_obj() call exists just a few lines before
each instance).
2) Support for an AUDIT_IPC_SET_PERM audit message type. This allows
for separate auxiliary audit records for normal operations on an IPC
object and permissions changes. Note that the same struct
audit_aux_data_ipcctl is used and populated, however there are separate
audit_log_format statements based on the type of the message. Finally,
the AUDIT_IPC block of code in audit_free_aux() was extended to handle
aux messages of this new type. No more mem leaks I hope ;-)
