A bug in the fusion driver was exposed by the switch to block timeout.
Basically, drivers are supposed to terminate commands once error
handling begins on them. The fusion apparently wasn't doing this.
Under the old timeout regime, completions on terminated commands would
by and large get ignored because of the way command timeouts used to
work. The new block timers are very intolerant to this, though,
becuase the request gets cleaned and freed.

The enc28j60 driver reads incoming packets in the process (workqueue) context,
not in a tasklet or the interrupt context. Thus, we should use netif_rx_ni()
to deliver those packets to the networking layer, instead of netif_rx(). This
way incoming packets don't wait in the incoming queue for the next IRQ to be
serviced.

This patch fixes an inconsistency in nfnetlink_conntrack.h that
I introduced myself. The problem is that CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC is
missing from enum ctattr_natseq. This inconsistency may lead to
problems in the message parsing in userspace (if the message
contains the CTA_NAT_SEQ_* attributes, of course).
This patch breaks backward compatibility, however, the only known
client of this code is libnetfilter_conntrack which indeed crashes
because it assumes the existence of CTA_NAT_SEQ_UNSPEC to do
the parsing.
The CTA_NAT_SEQ_* attributes were introduced in 2.6.25.

Commit d015fe995 'powerpc/cell/axon-msi: Retry on missing interrupt'
has turned a rare failure to kexec on QS22 into a reproducible
error, which we have now analysed.
The problem is that after a kexec, the MSIC hardware still points
into the middle of the old ring buffer. We set up the ring buffer
during reboot, but not the offset into it. On older kernels, this
would cause a storm of thousands of spurious interrupts after a
kexec, which would most of the time get dropped silently.
With the new code, we time out on each interrupt, waiting for
it to become valid. If more interrupts come in that we time
out on, this goes on indefinitely, which eventually leads to
a hard crash.
The solution in this commit is to read the current offset from
the MSIC when reinitializing it. This now works correctly, as
expected.

careful_allocation() was calling into the bootmem allocator for
nodes which had not been fully initialized and caused a previous
bug: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/10528/ So, I merged a
few broken out loops in do_init_bootmem() to fix it. That changed
the code ordering.
I think this bug is triggered by having reserved areas for a node
which are spanned by another node's contents. In the
mark_reserved_regions_for_nid() code, we attempt to reserve the
area for a node before we have allocated the NODE_DATA() for that
nid. We do this since I reordered that loop. I suck.
This is causing crashes at bootup on some systems, as reported
by Jon Tollefson.
This may only present on some systems that have 16GB pages
reserved. But, it can probably happen on any system that is
trying to reserve large swaths of memory that happen to span other
nodes' contents.
This commit ensures that we do not touch bootmem for any node which
has not been initialized, and also removes a compile warning about
an unused variable.

It looks like most of the hugetlb code is doing the correct thing if
hugepages are not supported, but the mmap code is not. If we get into
the mmap code when hugepages are not supported, such as in an LPAR
which is running Active Memory Sharing, we can oops the kernel. This
fixes the oops being seen in this path.

When a cgroup is removed, it's unlinked from its parent's children list,
but not actually freed until the last dentry on it is released (at which
point cgrp->root->number_of_cgroups is decremented).
Currently rebind_subsystems checks for the top cgroup's child list being
empty in order to rebind subsystems into or out of a hierarchy - this can
result in the set of subsystems bound to a hierarchy being
removed-but-not-freed cgroup.
The simplest fix for this is to forbid remounts that change the set of
subsystems on a hierarchy that has removed-but-not-freed cgroups. This
bug can be reproduced via:
mkdir /mnt/cg
mount -t cgroup -o ns,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
mkdir /mnt/cg/foo
sleep 1h < /mnt/cg/foo &
rmdir /mnt/cg/foo
mount -t cgroup -o remount,ns,devices,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
kill $!
Though the above will cause oops in -mm only but not mainline, but the bug
can cause memory leak in mainline (and even oops)

a kmap_atomic (ide code) and thus on returning from the interrupt

For the console, there is a 1:1 mapping of glyphs which cannot be found
in the current font. This seems to be meant as a kind of 'emergency
fallback' for fonts without unicode mapping which otherwise would
display nothing readable on the screen.
At the moment it affects all chars for which no substitution character
is defined. In particular this means that for all chars (>= 128) where
there is no iso88591-1/unicode character (e.g. control character area)
you'll get the very strange 1:1 mapping of the (cp437) graphics card
glyphs.
I'm pretty sure that the 1:1 mapping should only affect strict ASCII
code characters, i.e. chars < 128.
The patch limits the mapping as it probably was meant anyway.
