9561f7faa4 HID: hiddev: potential info leak in hiddev_ioctl()
Smatch has a new check for Rosenberg type information leaks where
structs are copied to the user with uninitialized stack data in them.

In this case, the hiddev_devinfo struct has a two byte hole.

struct hiddev_devinfo {
        __u32                      bustype;              /*     0     4 */
        __u32                      busnum;               /*     4     4 */
        __u32                      devnum;               /*     8     4 */
        __u32                      ifnum;                /*    12     4 */
        __s16                      vendor;               /*    16     2 */
        __s16                      product;              /*    18     2 */
        __s16                      version;              /*    20     2 */

        /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */

65b01bd561 HID: hidraw: protect hidraw_disconnect() better
The function hidraw_disconnect() only acquires the hidraw minors_lock
when clearing the entry in hidraw_table. However the device_destroy()
call can cause a userland read/write to return with an error. It may
cause the program to release the file descripter before the disconnect
is finished. hidraw_disconnect() has already set hidraw->exist to 0,
which makes hidraw_release() kfree the hidraw structure, which
hidraw_disconnect() continues to access and even tries to kfree again.
Similarly if a hidraw_release() occurs after setting hidraw->exist to 0,
the same thing can happen.

This is fixed by expanding the mutex critical section to cover the whole
function from setting hidraw->exist to 0 to freeing the hidraw
structure, preventing a hidraw_release() from interfering.

dde58cfcc3 HID: wacom: Fix error path of power-supply initialization
power_supply_unregister() must not be called if power_supply_register() failed.
The wdata->psy.dev pointer may point to invalid memory after a failed
power_supply_register() and hence wacom_remove() will fail while calling
power_supply_unregister().

This changes the wacom_probe function to fail if it cannot register the
power_supply devices. If we would want to keep the previous behaviour we had to
keep some flag about the power_supply state and check it on wacom_remove, but
this seems inappropriate here. Hence, we simply fail, too, if
power_supply_register fails.

96219c3a25 i2c-tegra: fix possible race condition after tx
In tegra_i2c_fill_tx_fifo, once we have finished pushing all the bytes
to the I2C hardware controller, the interrupt might happen before we
have updated i2c_dev->msg_buf_remaining at the end of the function.
Then, in tegra_i2c_isr, we will call again tegra_i2c_fill_tx_fifo
triggering weird behaviour. This has been shown to happen under real
conditions.

ed467e69f1 xen/smp: Warn user why they keel over - nosmp or noapic and what to use instead.
We have hit a couple of customer bugs where they would like to
use those parameters to run an UP kernel - but both of those
options turn of important sources of interrupt information so
we end up not being able to boot. The correct way is to
pass in 'dom0_max_vcpus=1' on the Xen hypervisor line and
the kernel will patch itself to be a UP kernel.

d198d49914 xen: x86_32: do not enable iterrupts when returning from exception in interrupt context
If vmalloc page_fault happens inside of interrupt handler with interrupts
disabled then on exit path from exception handler when there is no pending
interrupts, the following code (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:112):

	cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
	sete XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)

will enable interrupts even if they has been previously disabled according to
eflags from the bounce frame (arch/x86/xen/xen-asm_32.S:99)

	testb $X86_EFLAGS_IF>>8, 8+1+ESP_OFFSET(%esp)
	setz XEN_vcpu_info_mask(%eax)

Solution is in setting XEN_vcpu_info_mask only when it should be set
according to
	cmpw $0x0001, XEN_vcpu_info_pending(%eax)
but not clearing it if there isn't any pending events.

Reproducer for bug is attached to RHBZ 707552

58d84c4ee0 xfs: fix ->write_inode return values
Currently we always redirty an inode that was attempted to be written out
synchronously but has been cleaned by an AIL pushed internall, which is
rather bogus.  Fix that by doing the i_update_core check early on and
return 0 for it.  Also include async calls for it, as doing any work for
those is just as pointless.  While we're at it also fix the sign for the
EIO return in case of a filesystem shutdown, and fix the completely
non-sensical locking around xfs_log_inode.

d312ae878b xen: use maximum reservation to limit amount of usable RAM
Use the domain's maximum reservation to limit the amount of extra RAM
for the memory balloon. This reduces the size of the pages tables and
the amount of reserved low memory (which defaults to about 1/32 of the
total RAM).

On a system with 8 GiB of RAM with the domain limited to 1 GiB the
kernel reports:

Before:

Memory: 627792k/4472000k available

After:

Memory: 549740k/11132224k available

A increase of about 76 MiB (~1.5% of the unused 7 GiB).  The reserved
low memory is also reduced from 253 MiB to 32 MiB.  The total
additional usable RAM is 329 MiB.

For dom0, this requires at patch to Xen ('x86: use 'dom0_mem' to limit
the number of pages for dom0') (c/s 23790)
