Alok Kataria ba62b07787 acpi: fix "buggy BIOS check" when CPUs are hot removed
Fixes a BUG in ACPI hotplugging.

processor_device_array[pr->id] needs to be set to NULL when removing a CPU.
Else the "buggy BIOS check" in acpi_processor_start mistakenly fires when a
CPU is removed from the system and then later re-added.

Arjan van de Ven 4b47c971dc es1968: fix sleep-while-holding-lock bug
snd_es1968_ac97_read() calls snd_es1968_ac97_wait() first outside a locked
area, and later, while holding a lock.

snd_es1968_ac97_wait() has a polling loop with a cond_resched() inside it..
which sleeps, so the second call is invalid.

This patch adds a version of the wait function that just pure polls.  While
this is not very elegant in principle, it's very likely the easiest thing to
do here, we already checked if the chip was ready (while yielding) just
before, so it is very unlikely to take a long time here.

KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 41e3355de0 memcg: fix node_state handling
This should be N_NORMAL_MEMORY.

N_NORMAL_MEMORY is "true" if a node has memory for the kernel.  N_HIGH_MEMORY
is "true" if a node has memory for HIGHMEM.  (If CONFIG_HIGHMEM=n, always
"true")

This check is used for testing whether we can use kmalloc_node() on a node.
Then, if there is a node which only contains HIGHMEM, the system will call
kmalloc_node() which doesn't contain memory for the kernel.  If it happens
under SLUB, the kernel will panic.  I think this only happens on x86_32-numa.

Pete Zaitcev ef45cb624b ub: remove BUG() after __blk_end_request and fix the condition causing it
When __blk_end_request returns nonzero, it means that the request was
not completely processed and some BIOs are still attached. Since we
have dequeued it by that time, it means leaking requests and hanging
processes, which is why BUG() was in there. In ub this happens if
a packet request ends normally, but with residue (e.g. when scsi_id
issues INQUIRY).

The fix is to make sure that arguments passed to __blk_end_request
are correct: the full request length and not just transferred length.
The transferred length is indicated to applications by adjusting
rq->data_len with old, unchanged code outside of this patch.

David S. Miller 21f644f3ea [NET]: Undo code bloat in hot paths due to print_mac().
If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler
can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it
even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop.

So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths,
use MAC_FMT et al. instead.

As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to
handle this better, but that is a change to an interface
used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated
carefully.  This here is thus the less risky fix for
2.6.25

Ilpo Järvinen 6adb4f733e [TCP]: Don't allow FRTO to take place while MTU is being probed
MTU probe can cause some remedies for FRTO because the normal
packet ordering may be violated allowing FRTO to make a wrong
decision (it might not be that serious threat for anything
though). Thus it's safer to not run FRTO while MTU probe is
underway.

It seems that the basic FRTO variant should also look for an
skb at probe_seq.start to check if that's retransmitted one
but I didn't implement it now (plain seqno in window check
isn't robust against wraparounds).

Ilpo Järvinen 882bebaaca [TCP]: tcp_simple_retransmit can cause S+L
This fixes Bugzilla #10384

tcp_simple_retransmit does L increment without any checking
whatsoever for overflowing S+L when Reno is in use.

The simplest scenario I can currently think of is rather
complex in practice (there might be some more straightforward
cases though). Ie., if mss is reduced during mtu probing, it
may end up marking everything lost and if some duplicate ACKs
arrived prior to that sacked_out will be non-zero as well,
leading to S+L > packets_out, tcp_clean_rtx_queue on the next
cumulative ACK or tcp_fastretrans_alert on the next duplicate
ACK will fix the S counter.

More straightforward (but questionable) solution would be to
just call tcp_reset_reno_sack() in tcp_simple_retransmit but
it would negatively impact the probe's retransmission, ie.,
the retransmissions would not occur if some duplicate ACKs
had arrived.

So I had to add reno sacked_out reseting to CA_Loss state
when the first cumulative ACK arrives (this stale sacked_out
might actually be the explanation for the reports of left_out
overflows in kernel prior to 2.6.23 and S+L overflow reports
of 2.6.24). However, this alone won't be enough to fix kernel
before 2.6.24 because it is building on top of the commit
1b6d427bb7 ([TCP]: Reduce sacked_out with reno when purging
write_queue) to keep the sacked_out from overflowing.

Ilpo Järvinen c137f3dda0 [TCP]: Fix NewReno's fast rexmit/recovery problems with GSOed skb
Fixes a long-standing bug which makes NewReno recovery crippled.
With GSO the whole head skb was marked as LOST which is in
violation of NewReno procedure that only wants to mark one packet
and ended up breaking our TCP code by causing counter overflow
because our code was built on top of assumption about valid
NewReno procedure. This manifested as triggering a WARN_ON for
the overflow in a number of places.

It seems relatively safe alternative to just do nothing if
tcp_fragment fails due to oom because another duplicate ACK is
likely to be received soon and the fragmentation will be retried.

Special thanks goes to Soeren Sonnenburg <kernel@nn7.de> who was
lucky enough to be able to reproduce this so that the warning
for the overflow was hit. It's not as easy task as it seems even
if this bug happens quite often because the amount of outstanding
data is pretty significant for the mismarkings to lead to an
overflow.

Because it's very late in 2.6.25-rc cycle (if this even makes in
time), I didn't want to touch anything with SACK enabled here.
Fragmenting might be useful for it as well but it's more or less
a policy decision rather than mandatory fix. Thus there's no need
to rush and we can postpone considering tcp_fragment with SACK
for 2.6.26.

In 2.6.24 and earlier, this very same bug existed but the effect
is slightly different because of a small changes in the if
conditions that fit to the patch's context. With them nothing
got lost marker and thus no retransmissions happened.

Fix kernel oops due to machine check occuring in init_chipset_siimage() on PPC
44x platforms.  These 32-bit CPUs have 36-bit physical address and PCI I/O and
memory spaces are mapped beyond 4 GB; arch/ppc/ code has a fixup in ioremap()
that creates an illusion of the PCI I/O and memory resources being mapped below
4 GB, while arch/powerpc/ code got rid of this fixup with PPC 44x having instead
CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT=y -- this causes the resources to be truncated to 32-bit
'unsigned long' type in this driver, and so non-existant memory being ioremap'ed
and then accessed...

The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host
we don't need callbacks now.  As it is not reliable, the debug check is
overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time.  Document this.

Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable
callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance
protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

ASM_NOP's for 64-bit kernel with CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU is broken
with the recent x86 nops merge. They were using GENERIC_NOPS

For now, fall back ASM NOPS for generic cpu to K8 NOPS, similar
to the code before the wrong x86 nop merge.

Karsten Wiese 4f41c94d5c x86: fix call to set_cyc2ns_scale() from time_cpufreq_notifier()
In time_cpufreq_notifier() the cpu id to act upon is held in freq->cpu. Use it
instead of smp_processor_id() in the call to set_cyc2ns_scale().
This makes the preempt_*able() unnecessary and lets set_cyc2ns_scale() update
the intended cpu's cyc2ns.

it has been identified to cause suspend regression - and the
commit fixes a longstanding bug that existed before 2.6.25 was

Jesse Barnes 3bf48468fe fix IS_I9XX macro in i915 DRM driver
Now that we're mapping registers in the DRM driver at load time, the
driver actually checks the PCI ID, so we need to make sure the macros
have all the right bits (and longer term use the DRM headers as the sole
copy of the PCI & register definitions).

This patch adds 945GME support to the DRM headers, fixing a regression
reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10395.

Hugh Dickins 164fc5dcd6 scsi: fix sense_slab/bio swapping livelock
Since 2.6.25-rc7, I've been seeing an occasional livelock on one x86_64
machine, copying kernel trees to tmpfs, paging out to swap.

Signature: 6000 pages under writeback but never getting written; most
tasks of interest trying to reclaim, but each get_swap_bio waiting for a
bio in mempool_alloc's io_schedule_timeout(5*HZ); every five seconds an
atomic page allocation failure report from kblockd failing to allocate a
sense_buffer in __scsi_get_command.

__scsi_get_command has a (one item) free_list to protect against this,
but rc1's [SCSI] use dynamically allocated sense buffer
de25deb180 upset that slightly.  When it
fails to allocate from the separate sense_slab, instead of giving up, it
must fall back to the command free_list, which is sure to have a
sense_buffer attached.

Either my earlier -rc testing missed this, or there's some recent
contributory factor.  One very significant factor is SLUB, which merges
slab caches when it can, and on 64-bit happens to merge both bio cache
and sense_slab cache into kmalloc's 128-byte cache: so that under this
swapping load, bios above are liable to gobble up all the slots needed
for scsi_cmnd sense_buffers below.

That's disturbing behaviour, and I tried a few things to fix it.  Adding
a no-op constructor to the sense_slab inhibits SLUB from merging it, and
stops all the allocation failures I was seeing; but it's rather a hack,
and perhaps in different configurations we have other caches on the
swapout path which are ill-merged.

Another alternative is to revert the separate sense_slab, using
cache-line-aligned sense_buffer allocated beyond scsi_cmnd from the one
kmem_cache; but that might waste more memory, and is only a way of
diverting around the known problem.

While I don't like seeing the allocation failures, and hate the idea of
all those bios piled up above a scsi host working one by one, it does
seem to emerge fairly soon with the livelock fix.  So lacking better
ideas, stick with that one clear fix for now.

Andrew Paprocki cc1020f15a [WATCHDOG] it8712f_wdt Zero MSB timeout byte when disabling watchdog
I noticed this while testing the latest code. I'm not sure if it is required,
but the normal (or LSB) timeout value is set to zero, so the MSB should
be as well to stay consistent.

If the chip revision is >= 8, set MSB of the 16-bit timeout value to zero
when disabling the watchdog in it8712f_wdt_disable().
