Chandra Seetharaman 83d722f7e1 [PATCH] Remove __devinit and __cpuinit from notifier_call definitions
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __init in the definition
of notifier_call.  It is incorrect as the function definition should be
available after the initializations (they do not unregister them during
initializations).

This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_call __init
section.

Chandra Seetharaman 649bbaa484 [PATCH] Remove __devinitdata from notifier block definitions
Few of the notifier_chain_register() callers use __devinitdata in the
definition of notifier_block data structure.  It is incorrect as the
data structure should be available after the initializations (they do
not unregister them during initializations).

This was leading to an oops when notifier_chain_register() call is
invoked for those callback chains after initialization.

This patch fixes all such usages to _not_ have the notifier_block data
structure in the init data section.

James Morris e7edf9cded [PATCH] LSM: add missing hook to do_compat_readv_writev()
This patch addresses a flaw in LSM, where there is no mediation of readv()
and writev() in for 32-bit compatible apps using a 64-bit kernel.

This bug was discovered and fixed initially in the native readv/writev
code [1], but was not fixed in the compat code.  Thanks to Al for spotting
this one.

Al Viro de0bb97aff [PATCH] forgotten ->b_data in memcpy() call in ext3/resize.c (oopsable)
sbi->s_group_desc is an array of pointers to buffer_head.  memcpy() of
buffer size from address of buffer_head is a bad idea - it will generate
junk in any case, may oops if buffer_head is close to the end of slab
page and next page is not mapped and isn't what was intended there.
IOW, ->b_data is missing in that call.  Fortunately, result doesn't go
into the primary on-disk data structures, so only backup ones get crap
written to them; that had allowed this bug to remain unnoticed until
now.

Jens Axboe 912d35f867 [PATCH] Add support for the sys_vmsplice syscall
sys_splice() moves data to/from pipes with a file input/output. sys_vmsplice()
moves data to a pipe, with the input being a user address range instead.

This uses an approach suggested by Linus, where we can hold partial ranges
inside the pages[] map. Hopefully this will be useful for network
receive support as well.

Miklos Szeredi 6dbbcb1205 [fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end(), try #2
A deadlock was possible, when the last reference to the superblock was
held due to a background request containing a file reference.

Releasing the file would release the vfsmount which in turn would
release the superblock.  Since sbput_sem is held during the fput() and
fuse_put_super() tries to acquire this same semaphore, a deadlock
results.

The solution is to move the fput() outside the region protected by
sbput_sem.

Miklos Szeredi 5a5fb1ea74 Revert "[fuse] fix deadlock between fuse_put_super() and request_end()"
This reverts 73ce8355c2 commit.

It was wrong, because it didn't take into account the requirement,
that iput() for background requests must be performed synchronously
with ->put_super(), otherwise active inodes may remain after unmount.

The right solution is to keep the sbput_sem and perform iput() within
the locked region, but move fput() outside sbput_sem.

Richard Purdie c7fd84424f [ARM] 3484/1: Correct AEABI CFLAGS for correct enum handling
Patch from Richard Purdie

The AAPCS says that enums can be variably sized depending on the range
of valid values. This is not the accepted behaviour under linux so for
compatibility gcc has an aapcs-linux target, the main difference being
that enums are always of type int. Change the ARM Makefile to use this
target.

It's OK because its symbol is usable until nf_conntrack.ko is unloaded.
