7345137930 [PATCH] wireless/atmel: fix Open System authentication process bugs
This patch fixes a number of bugs in the authentication process:

1) When falling back to Shared Key authentication mode from Open System,
a missing 'return' would cause the auth request to be sent, but would
drop the card into Management Error state.  When falling back, the
driver should also indicate that it is switching to Shared Key mode by
setting exclude_unencrypted.

2) Initial authentication modes were apparently wrong in some cases,
causing the driver to attempt Shared Key authentication mode when in
fact the access point didn't support that mode or even had WEP disabled.
The driver should set the correct initial authentication mode based on
wep_is_on and exclude_unencrypted.

3) Authentication response packets from the access point in Open System
mode were getting ignored because the driver was expecting the sequence
number of a Shared Key mode response.  The patch separates the OS and SK
mode handling to provide the correct behavior.

0d467502b7 [PATCH] wireless/atmel: fix setting TX key only in ENCODEEXT
The previous patch that added ENCODEEXT and AUTH support to the atmel
driver contained a slight error which would cause just setting the TX
key index to also set the encryption key again.  This patch allows any
combination of setting the TX key index and setting an encryption key.

90f9dd8f72 [PATCH] Fix over-zealous tag clearing in radix_tree_delete
If a tag is set for a node being deleted from a radix_tree, then that
tag gets cleared from the parent of the node, even if it is set for some
siblings of the node begin deleted.

This patch changes the logic to include a test for any_tag_set similar
to the logic a little futher down.  Care is taken to ensure that
'nr_cleared_tags' remains equals to the number of entries in the 'tags'
array which are set to '0' (which means that this tag is not set in the
tree below pathp->node, and should be cleared at pathp->node and
possibly above.

[ Nick says: "Linus FYI, I was able to modify the radix tree test
  harness to catch the bug and can no longer trigger it after the fix.
  Resulting code passes all other harness tests as well of course." ]

9f672004ab [PATCH] neofb: avoid resetting display config on unblank (v2)
There were two mistakes in the register-read-on-(un)blank approach.

- First, without proper register (un)locking the value read back will always
  be zero, and this is what I missed entirely until just now.  Due to this,
  the logic could not be verified at all and I tried some bogus checks which
  are completely stupid.

- Second, the LCD status bit will always be set to zero when the backlight
  has been turned off.  Reading the value back during unblank will disable the
  LCD unconditionally, regardless of the state it is supposed to be in, since
  we set it to zero beforehand.

So this is what we do now:

- create a new variable in struct neofb_par, and use that to determine
  whether to read back registers (initialized to true)

- before actually blanking the screen, read back the register to sense any
  possible change made through Fn key combo

- use proper neoUnlock() / neoLock() to actually read something

- every call to neofb_blank() determines if we read back next time: blanking
  disables readback, unblanking (FB_BLANK_UNBLANK) enables it

This should give us a nice and clean state machine.  Has been thoroughly
tested on a Dell Latitude CPiA / NM220 Chip docked to a C/Dock2 with attached
CRT in all possible combinations of LCD/CRT on/off.  I changed the config via
Fn key, let the console blank, unblanked by keypress - works flawlessly.

48d5cad87c [XFRM]: Fix SNAT-related crash in xfrm4_output_finish
When a packet matching an IPsec policy is SNATed so it doesn't match any
policy anymore it looses its xfrm bundle, which makes xfrm4_output_finish
crash because of a NULL pointer dereference.

This patch directs these packets to the original output path instead. Since
the packets have already passed the POST_ROUTING hook, but need to start at
the beginning of the original output path which includes another
POST_ROUTING invocation, a flag is added to the IPCB to indicate that the
packet was rerouted and doesn't need to pass the POST_ROUTING hook again.

defbb2c929 [IA64] ia64: simplify and fix udelay()
The original ia64 udelay() was simple, but flawed for platforms without
synchronized ITCs:  a preemption and migration to another CPU during the
while-loop likely resulted in too-early termination or very, very
lengthy looping.

The first fix (now in 2.6.15) broke the delay loop into smaller,
non-preemptible chunks, reenabling preemption between the chunks.  This
fix is flawed in that the total udelay is computed to be the sum of just
the non-premptible while-loop pieces, i.e., not counting the time spent
in the interim preemptible periods.  If an interrupt or a migration
occurs during one of these interim periods, then that time is invisible
and only serves to lengthen the effective udelay().

This new fix backs out the current flawed fix and returns to a simple
udelay(), fully preemptible and interruptible.  It implements two simple
alternative udelay() routines:  one a default generic version that uses
ia64_get_itc(), and the other an sn-specific version that uses that
platform's RTC.

5ecfbae093 [PATCH] fix zap_thread's ptrace related problems
1. The tracee can go from ptrace_stop() to do_signal_stop()
   after __ptrace_unlink(p).

2. It is unsafe to __ptrace_unlink(p) while p->parent may wait
   for tasklist_lock in ptrace_detach().

dadac81b1b [PATCH] fix kill_proc_info() vs fork() theoretical race
copy_process:

	attach_pid(p, PIDTYPE_PID, p->pid);
	attach_pid(p, PIDTYPE_TGID, p->tgid);

What if kill_proc_info(p->pid) happens in between?

copy_process() holds current->sighand.siglock, so we are safe
in CLONE_THREAD case, because current->sighand == p->sighand.

Otherwise, p->sighand is unlocked, the new process is already
visible to the find_task_by_pid(), but have a copy of parent's
'struct pid' in ->pids[PIDTYPE_TGID].

This means that __group_complete_signal() may hang while doing

	do ... while (next_thread() != p)

We can solve this problem if we reverse these 2 attach_pid()s:

	attach_pid() does wmb()

	group_send_sig_info() calls spin_lock(), which
	provides a read barrier. // Yes ?

I don't think we can hit this race in practice, but still.
