Andrew Morton 016eb4a0ed [PATCH] invalidate_complete_page() race fix
If a CPU faults this page into pagetables after invalidate_mapping_pages()
checked page_mapped(), invalidate_complete_page() will still proceed to remove
the page from pagecache.  This leaves the page-faulting process with a
detached page.  If it was MAP_SHARED then file data loss will ensue.

Fix that up by checking the page's refcount after taking tree_lock.

Looking at the code, it looks like it's not handle HOLE correctly.  It ends
up returning -EIO.  Here is the patch to fix it.

If we really want to be paranoid, we can allow return values 0 (HOLE), 1
(we asked for one block) and return -EIO for more than 1 block.  But I
really don't see a reason for doing it - all we need is the block# here.
(doesn't matter how many blocks are mapped).

ext3_get_blocks_handle() returns number of blocks it mapped.  It returns 0
in case of HOLE.  ext3_getblk() should handle HOLE properly (currently its
dumping warning stack and returning -EIO).

Thomas Gleixner c5780e976e [PATCH] Use the correct restart option for futex_lock_pi
The current implementation of futex_lock_pi returns -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK
in case that the lock operation has been interrupted by a signal.  This
results in a return of -EINTR to userspace in case there is an handler for
the signal.  This is wrong, because userspace expects that the lock
function does not return in any case of signal delivery.

This was not caught by my insufficient test case, but triggered a nasty
userspace problem in an high load application scenario.  Unfortunately also
glibc does not check for this invalid return value.

Using -ERSTARTNOINTR makes sure, that the interrupted syscall is restarted.
 The restart block related code can be safely removed, as the possible
timeout argument is an absolute time value.

Kirill Korotaev 3a45975681 [PATCH] IA64,sparc: local DoS with corrupted ELFs
This prevents cross-region mappings on IA64 and SPARC which could lead
to system crash.  They were correctly trapped for normal mmap() calls,
but not for the kernel internal calls generated by executable loading.

This code just moves the architecture-specific cross-region checks into
an arch-specific "arch_mmap_check()" macro, and defines that for the
architectures that needed it (ia64, sparc and sparc64).

Architectures that don't have any special requirements can just ignore
the new cross-region check, since the mmap() code will just notice on
its own when the macro isn't defined.

Pierre Ossman 6fe9febb8a [MMC] Always use a sector size of 512 bytes
Both MMC and SD specifications specify (although a bit unclearly in
the MMC case) that a sector size of 512 bytes must always be
supported by the card.

Cards can report larger "native" size than this, and cards >= 2 GB
even must do so. Most other readers use 512 bytes even for these
cards. We should do the same to be compatible.

Patch from Pavel Pisa

This is another approach to SDHC deficiency workaround.
It seems, that previous solution based on 16 bytes (FIFO length size)
read is still timing sensitive on genirq and fully preemptive kernels.
The new solution is backuped by M9328 UM statement, that only 512 byte
block are working properly and by 2.4.26 FreeScale's SDHC code.

Jay Monkman reports significant improvement on code based
on this driver after applying this change on MX21 as well.

David Chinner 4be536debe [XFS] Prevent free space oversubscription and xfssyncd looping.
The fix for recent ENOSPC deadlocks introduced certain limitations on
allocations. The fix could cause xfssyncd to loop endlessly if we did not
leave some space free for the allocator to work correctly. Basically, we
needed to ensure that we had at least 4 blocks free for an AG free list
and a block for the inode bmap btree at all times.

However, this did not take into account the fact that each AG has a free
list that needs 4 blocks. Hence any filesystem with more than one AG could
cause oversubscription of free space and make xfssyncd spin forever trying
to allocate space needed for AG freelists that was not available in the
AG.

The following patch reserves space for the free lists in all AGs plus the
inode bmap btree which prevents oversubscription. It also prevents those
blocks from being reported as free space (as they can never be used) and
makes the SMP in-core superblock accounting code and the reserved block
ioctl respect this requirement.

Frank v.  Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to
ktime_t conversion might overflow.  This is also true for timeval to
ktime_t conversions.  This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines.

While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification
the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds.  The
conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values >=
(MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC).

Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum
time which can be represented by ktime_t.

Stephen Hemminger 513f533e3f [PATCH] skge: use NAPI for transmit complete
The skge driver has much better performance if transmit done is handled in
NAPI softirq. Change from doing transmit locking in driver (LLTX) and
use device lock.

Stephen Hemminger 29365c9009 [PATCH] skge: irq lock race
The driver needs to access the IRQ status inside of lock to avoid
races with other places changing IRQ mask etc. This may be related
to some of the SMP bugs reported against skge in kernel bugzilla.

Brice Goglin ce7f93680a [PATCH] myri10ge: improve firmware selection
Improve the firmware selection by adding 2 cases where we should use the
optimized firmware:
* when the actual PCIe link width is lower than 8x.
* when the board is plugged to one of the new Intel PCIe chipsets that
  are known to provide aligned PCIe completions.

The patch actually raises two concerns:
* We might want to add a generic PCI function to get the PCIe link width since
  some other drivers (at least ipath) do the same. But we probably do not want
  to add a new function for every PCIe capability. I will probably look at it
  and discuss it on linux-pci in the future.
* As requested during the submission, the PCI ids of chipsets that are known to
  provided aligned completion are defined in the myri10ge code. If we keep adding
  new ones, it might become better to move them to pciids.h.
  But, this sort of quirk to detect these chipsets are very specific to our NIC,
  I don't think it is worth moving it to the PCI core until somebody else really
  needs it.

Ayaz Abdulla f2ad2d9b65 [PATCH] forcedeth: decouple vlan and rx checksum dependency
This patch decouples the dependency between the rx checksum feature and
vlan feature. This is done by ignoring the checksum information if the
user has disabled rx checksum when vlan is enabled.
