ba1cbad93d dm: handle requests beyond end of device instead of using BUG_ON
The access beyond the end of device BUG_ON that was introduced to
dm_request_fn via commit 29e4013de7 ("dm: implement
REQ_FLUSH/FUA support for request-based dm") was an overly
drastic (but simple) response to this situation.

I have received a report that this BUG_ON was hit and now think
it would be better to use dm_kill_unmapped_request() to fail the clone
and original request with -EIO.

map_request() will assign the valid target returned by
dm_table_find_target to tio->ti.  But when the target
isn't valid tio->ti is never assigned (because map_request isn't
called); so add a check for tio->ti != NULL to dm_done().

7ba10aa6fb dm mpath: only retry ioctl when no paths if queue_if_no_path set
When there are no paths and multipath receives an ioctl, it waits until
a path becomes available.  This behaviour is incorrect if the
"queue_if_no_path" setting was not specified, as then the ioctl should
be rejected immediately, which this patch now does.

commit 35991652b ("dm mpath: allow ioctls to trigger pg init") should
have checked if queue_if_no_path was configured before queueing IO.

Checking for the queue_if_no_path feature, like is done in map_io(),
allows the following table load to work without blocking in the
multipath_ioctl retry loop:

  echo "0 1024 multipath 0 0 0 0" | dmsetup create mpath_nodevs

Without this fix the multipath_ioctl will block with the following stack
trace:

307615a26e dm thin: do not set discard_zeroes_data
The dm thin pool target claims to support the zeroing of discarded
data areas.  This turns out to be incorrect when processing discards
that do not exactly cover a complete number of blocks, so the target
must always set discard_zeroes_data_unsupported.

The thin pool target will zero blocks when they are allocated if the
skip_block_zeroing feature is not specified.  The block layer
may send a discard that only partly covers a block.  If a thin pool
block is partially discarded then there is no guarantee that the
discarded data will get zeroed before it is accessed again.
Due to this, thin devices cannot claim discards will always zero data.

11ef4cfac9 syscalls: add __NR_kcmp syscall to generic unistd.h
Commit d97b46a64 ("syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall" ) added a new
syscall to support checkpoint restore. It is currently x86-only, but
that restriction will be removed in a subsequent patch. Unfortunately,
the kernel checksyscalls script had a bug which suppressed any warning
to other architectures that the kcmp syscall was not implemented. A
patch to checksyscalls is being tested in linux-next and other
architectures are seeing warnings about kcmp being unimplemented.

This patch adds __NR_kcmp to <asm-generic/unistd.h> so that kcmp is
wired in for architectures using the generic syscall list.

NVIDIA do that at startup too on Fermi, so perhaps the heap of 0x10

On Kepler NVIDIA *don't* do this, but the hardware appears to come up

Pull more networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Eric Dumazet discovered and fixed what turned out to be a family of
    bugs.  These functions were using pskb_may_pull() which might need
    to reallocate the linear SKB data buffer, but the callers were not
    expecting this possibility.  The callers have cached pointers to the
    packet header areas, and would need to reload them if we were to
    continue using pskb_may_pull().

    So they could end up reading garbage.

    It's easier to just change these RAW4/RAW6/MIP6 routines to use
    skb_header_pointer() instead of pskb_may_pull(), which won't modify
    the linear SKB data area.

 2) Dave Jone's syscall spammer caught a case where a non-TCP socket can
    call down into the TCP keepalive code.  The case basically involves
    creating a raw socket with sk_protocol == IPPROTO_TCP, then calling
    setsockopt(sock_fd, SO_KEEPALIVE, ...)

    Fixed by Eric Dumazet.

 3) Bluetooth devices do not get configured properly while being powered
    on, resulting in always using legacy pairing instead of SSP.  Fix
    from Andrzej Kaczmarek.

 4) Bluetooth cancels delayed work erroneously, put stricter checks in
    place.  From Andrei Emeltchenko.

 5) Fix deadlock between cfg80211_mutex and reg_regdb_search_mutex in
    cfg80211, from Luis R.  Rodriguez.

 6) Fix interrupt double release in iwlwifi, from Emmanuel Grumbach.

 7) Missing module license in bcm87xx driver, from Peter Huewe.

 8) Team driver can lose port changed events when adding devices to a
    team, fix from Jiri Pirko.

 9) Fix endless loop when trying ot unregister PPPOE device in zombie
    state, from Xiaodong Xu.

10) batman-adv layer needs to set MAC address of software device
    earlier, otherwise we call tt_local_add with it uninitialized.

11) Fix handling of KSZ8021 PHYs, it's matched currently by KS8051 but
    that doesn't program the device properly.  From Marek Vasut.

be8cfc4af1 c/r: prctl: fix build error for no-MMU case
Commit 1ad75b9e16 ("c/r: prctl: add minimal address test to
PR_SET_MM") added some address checking to prctl_set_mm() used by
checkpoint-restore.  This causes a build error for no-MMU systems:

   kernel/sys.c: In function 'prctl_set_mm':
   kernel/sys.c:1868:34: error: 'mmap_min_addr' undeclared (first use in this function)

The test for mmap_min_addr doesn't make a lot of sense for no-MMU code
as noted in commit 6e14154676 ("NOMMU: Optimise away the
{dac_,}mmap_min_addr tests").

This patch defines mmap_min_addr as 0UL in the no-MMU case so that the
compiler will optimize away tests for "addr < mmap_min_addr".

b5bd6a0e5f lib/flex_proportions.c: fix corruption of denominator in flexible proportions
When racing with CPU hotplug, percpu_counter_sum() can return negative
values for the number of observed events.

This confuses fprop_new_period(), which uses unsigned type and as a
result number of events is set to big *positive* number.  From that
moment on, things go pear shaped and can result e.g.  in division by
zero as denominator is later truncated to 32-bits.

This bug causes a divide-by-zero oops in bdi_dirty_limit() in Borislav's
3.6.0-rc6 based kernel.

Fix the issue by using a signed type in fprop_new_period().  That makes
us bail out from the function without doing anything (mistakenly)
thinking there are no events to age.  That makes aging somewhat
inaccurate but getting accurate data would be rather hard.

deb09ddaff sb_edac: Avoid overflow errors at memory size calculation
Sandy bridge EDAC is calculating the memory size with overflow.
Basically, the size field and the integer calculation is using 32 bits.
More bits are needed, when the DIMM memories have high density.

The net result is that memories are improperly reported there, when
high-density DIMMs are used:

EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 591: mc#0: channel 0, dimm 0, -16384 Mb (-4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800
EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 591: mc#0: channel 1, dimm 0, -16384 Mb (-4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800

As the number of pages value is handled at the EDAC core as unsigned
ints, the driver shows the 16 GB memories at sysfs interface as 16760832
MB! The fix is simple: calculate the number of pages as unsigned 64-bits
integer.

After the patch, the memory size (16 GB) is properly detected:

EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/sb_edac.c, line at 592: mc#0: channel 0, dimm 0, 16384 Mb (4194304 pages) bank: 8, rank: 2, row: 0x10000, col: 0x800

16d74ebeb1 sh: pfc: Fix up GPIO mux type reconfig case.
Some drivers need to switch pin states between GPIO and pin function at
runtime, which was inadvertently broken in the pinctrl driver for GPIOs
being bound to a specific direction.

This fixes up the request path to ensure that previously configured GPIOs
don't cause us to inadvertently error out with an unsupported mux on
reconfig, which in practice is primarily aimed at trapping pull-up/down
users that have yet to be implemented under the new API.

Fixes up regressions in the TPU PWM driver, amongst others.

John W. Linville says:

====================
Please pull this last(?) batch of fixes intended for 3.6...

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says this:

"Here goes probably my last update to 3.6. It includes the two patches
you were ok last week(from Andrzej Kaczmarek), those are critical
ones, and two other fixes one for a system crash and the other for
a missing lockdep annotation."

The referenced fixes from Andrzej prevent attempts to configure devices
that are powered-off.

Along with the Bluetooth fixes, there are a couple of 802.11 fixes.
Emmanuel Grumbach gives us an iwlwifi fix to prevent releasing an
interrupt twice.  Luis R. Rodriguez provides a fix for a possible
circular lock dependency in the cfg80211 regulatory enforcement code.

All of these have been in linux-next for a few days.  I hope they are
not too late to make the 3.6 release!

212ea99a85 phy/micrel: Implement support for KSZ8021
The KSZ8021 PHY was previously caught by KS8051, which is not correct.
This PHY needs additional setup if it is strapped for address 0. In such
case an reserved bit must be written in the 0x16, "Operation Mode Strap
Override" register. According to the KS8051 datasheet, that bit means
"PHY Address 0 in non-broadcast" and it indeed behaves as such on KSZ8021.
The issue where the ethernet controller (Freescale FEC) did not communicate
with network is fixed by writing this bit as 1.

8d54db795d xen/boot: Disable NUMA for PV guests.
The hypervisor is in charge of allocating the proper "NUMA" memory
and dealing with the CPU scheduler to keep them bound to the proper
NUMA node. The PV guests (and PVHVM) have no inkling of where they
run and do not need to know that right now. In the future we will
need to inject NUMA configuration data (if a guest spans two or more
NUMA nodes) so that the kernel can make the right choices. But those
patches are not yet present.

In the meantime, disable the NUMA capability in the PV guest, which
also fixes a bootup issue. Andre says:

"we see Dom0 crashes due to the kernel detecting the NUMA topology not
by ACPI, but directly from the northbridge (CONFIG_AMD_NUMA).

This will detect the actual NUMA config of the physical machine, but
will crash about the mismatch with Dom0's virtual memory. Variation of
the theme: Dom0 sees what it's not supposed to see.

This happens with the said config option enabled and on a machine where
this scanning is still enabled (K8 and Fam10h, not Bulldozer class)

We have this dump then:

faa2ad09c0 edac_mc: edac_mc_free() cannot assume mem_ctl_info is registered in sysfs.
Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in edac_unregister_sysfs() on
system boot introduced in 3.6-rc1.

Since commit 7a623c039 ("edac: rewrite the sysfs code to use struct
device") edac_mc_alloc() no longer initializes embedded kobjects in
struct mem_ctl_info.  Therefore edac_mc_free() can no longer simply
decrement a kobject reference count to free the allocated memory unless
the memory controller driver module had also called edac_mc_add_mc().

Now edac_mc_free() will check if the newly embedded struct device has
been registered with sysfs before using either the standard device
release functions or freeing the data structures itself with logic
pulled out of the error path of edac_mc_alloc().

The BUG this patch resolves for me:

   431                  kfree(mci->csrows);
   432          }

and that code block seem to mess things up in several ways (double free, memory
leak, out-of-bound reads etc.):

L422: The iterator "chn" and bound "tot_channels" are totally wrong. Should be
      "row" and "tot_csrows" respectively. Which means either memory leak, or
      out-of-bound reads (which if does not trigger an immediate page fault
      error, will further lead to kfree() on random addresses).

L425: The inner loop is reusing the same iterator "chn" as the outer loop,
      which could lead to premature end of the outer loop, and hence memory leak.

L429: The array index 'i' in mci->csrows[i] is a temporary value used in
      previous loops, and won't change at all in the current loop. Which
      means either out-of-bound read and possibly kfree(random number), or the
      same mci->csrows[i] get freed once and again, and possibly double free
      for the kfree(csr) in L427.

L426/L427: a kfree(csr->channels) is needed in between to avoid leaking the memory.

The buggy code was introduced by commit de3910eb ("edac: change the mem
allocation scheme to make Documentation/kobject.txt happy") in the 3.6-rc1
merge window. Fix it by freeing up resources in this order:

  free csrows[i]->channels[j]
  free csrows[i]->channels
  free csrows[i]
  free csrows

7caf69fb9c batman-adv: Fix symmetry check / route flapping in multi interface setups
If receiving an OGM from a neighbor other than the currently selected
and if it has the same TQ then we are supposed to switch if this
neighbor provides a more symmetric link than the currently selected one.

However this symmetry check currently is broken if the interface of the
neighbor we received the OGM from and the one of the currently selected
neighbor differ: We are currently trying to determine the symmetry of the
link towards the selected router via the link we received the OGM from
instead of just checking via the link towards the currently selected
router.

This leads to way more route switches than necessary and can lead to
permanent route flapping in many common multi interface setups.

This patch fixes this issue by using the right interface for this
symmetry check.
