The following patch fixes Red Hat bz 229831. Without this patch its
possible for the wrong inode to be returned in certain cases. It is a
pretty unusual event, so that its taken some time to track down. Thanks
and due to Josef Whiter who did a lot of the testing required to thrack
this down and fix it.

The below patch fixes a problem where we were not flushing rgrps
correctly. It only occurred in the specific case that a callback was
received for an rgrp which was dirty and when a journal log flush had
not already resulted in the rgrp being flushed anyway. This fixes Red
Hat bz 230143,

This fixes a problem I encountered while running bonnie++. When you have one
thread that opens a file and starts to write to it, and then another thread that
tries to open and write to the same file, the second thread will loop forever
trying to grab the inode lock for that inode. Basically we come in through
generic_buffered_file_write, which calls gfs2_prepare_write, which then attempts
to grab the glock. Because we don't own the lock, gfs2_prepare_write gets
GLR_TRYFAILED, which returns AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE to generic_buffered_file_write.
At this point generic_buffered_file_write loops around again and immediately
retries the prepare_write. This means that the second process never gets off of
the processor in order to allow the process that holds the lock to finish its
work and let go of the lock. This patch makes gfs2_glock_nq schedule() if it
gets back a GLR_TRYFAILED, which resolves this problem.

check_tsc_sync_source() depends on being called with irqs disabled (it

incidentally true during bootup, but not during cpu hotplug __cpu_up().
This got found via smp_processor_id() debugging.

Terminate the frame pointer walk if (a) the address is outside the
task's kernel stack or (b) if the frame pointer isn't monotonically
increasing. Without this fix, show_trace() may enter an infinite
loop, walking through random data anywhere in memory.
Since any address within the kernel stack is guaranteed to be valid,
we may eliminate the __get_user() calls as well.

This reverts commit 39d61db0ed.
The commit was buggy in multiple ways:
- the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with
- it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd
never see the bug except for constant arguments.
- the new "get_order()" macro used its arguments multiple times, and
didn't even parenthesize them properly
- despite the comments, it was not true that you could use it for
constant initializers, since not all architectures even use the
generic page.h header file.
All of the problems are individually fixable, but it all boils down to:
better just revert it, and re-do it from scratch.

Based on a patch from Don Howard <dhoward@redhat.com>
When calling write() with a buffer larger than 512 bytes, the
driver's write buffer overflows, allowing to overwrite the EIP and
execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.
In read(), there exists a similar problem, but coming from the device.
A malicous or buggy device sending more than 512 bytes can overflow
of the driver's read buffer, with the same effects as above.

Suspend deadlocks when trying to unregister /sys/block/sr0.
This comes from Oliver's commit 94bebf4d1b
"Driver core: fix race in sysfs between sysfs_remove_file() and
read()/write()".
sysfs_write_file downs buffer->sem while calling flush_write_buffer, and
flushing that particular write buffer entails downing buffer->sem in
orphan_all_buffers, resulting in the obvious self-deadlock.
