We want to allow different implementations of pci_raw_ops for standard
and extended config space on x86. Rather than clutter generic code with
knowledge of this, we make pci_raw_ops private to x86 and use it to
implement the new raw interface -- raw_pci_read() and raw_pci_write().

Thanks to Loic Prylli <loic@myri.com>, who originally proposed
this idea.
Always using legacy configuration mechanism for the legacy config space
and extended mechanism (mmconf) for the extended config space is
a simple and very logical approach. It's supposed to resolve all
known mmconf problems. It still allows per-device quirks (tweaking
dev->cfg_size). It also allows to get rid of mmconf fallback code.

Commit 8811930dc7 ("splice: missing user
pointer access verification") added the proper access_ok() calls to
copy_from_user_mmap_sem() which ensures we can copy the struct iovecs
from userspace to the kernel.
But we also must check whether we can access the actual memory region
pointed to by the struct iovec to fix the access checks properly.

hrtimer_nanosleep_restart() clears/restores restart_block->fn. This is

Spotted by Pavel Emelyanov and Alexey Dobriyan.
hrtimer_nanosleep() sets restart_block->arg1 = rmtp, but this rmtp points to
the local variable which lives in the caller's stack frame. This means that
if sys_restart_syscall() actually happens and it is interrupted as well, we
don't update the user-space variable, but write into the already dead stack
frame.
Introduced by commit 04c227140f
hrtimer: Rework hrtimer_nanosleep to make sys_compat_nanosleep easier
Change the callers to pass "__user *rmtp" to hrtimer_nanosleep(), and change
hrtimer_nanosleep() to use copy_to_user() to actually update *rmtp.
Small problem remains. man 2 nanosleep states that *rtmp should be written if
nanosleep() was interrupted (it says nothing whether it is OK to update *rmtp
if nanosleep returns 0), but (with or without this patch) we can dirty *rem
even if nanosleep() returns 0.
NOTE: this patch doesn't change compat_sys_nanosleep(), because it has other
bugs. Fixed by the next patch.

And checkcard is only used during init or when hot plugging
ISDN devices. So annotate hisax_cs_setup_card() with __devinit.
checkcard() is used by exported functions so it cannot be
annotated __devinit. Annotate it with __ref so modpost

This flag is simply a generic "this is a crash/burn test filesystem"
marker. If it is set, then filesystem code which is "in development"
will be allowed to mount the filesystem. Filesystem code which is not
considered ready for prime-time will check for this flag, and if it is
not set, it will refuse to touch the filesystem.
As we start rolling ext4 out to distro's like Fedora, et. al, this makes
it less likely that a user might accidentally start using ext4 on a
production filesystem; a bad thing, since that will essentially make it
be unfsckable until e2fsprogs catches up.

struct ext4_allocation_context is rather large, and this bloats
the stack of many functions which use it. Allocating it from
a named slab cache will alleviate this.
For example, with this change (on top of the noinline patch sent earlier):
-ext4_mb_new_blocks 200
+ext4_mb_new_blocks 40
-ext4_mb_free_blocks 344
+ext4_mb_free_blocks 168
-ext4_mb_release_inode_pa 216
+ext4_mb_release_inode_pa 40
-ext4_mb_release_group_pa 192
+ext4_mb_release_group_pa 24
Most of these stack-allocated structs are actually used only for
mballoc history; and in those cases often a smaller struct would do.
So changing that may be another way around it, at least for those
functions, if preferred. For now, in those cases where the ac
is only for history, an allocation failure simply skips the history
recording, and does not cause any other failures.

In JBD2 jbd2_journal_write_commit_record(), clear the buffer_ordered
flag for the bh after barried IO has succeed. This prevents later, if
the same buffer head were submitted to the underlying device, which has
been reconfigured to not support barrier request, the JBD2 commit code
could treat it as a normal IO (without barrier).
This is a port from JBD/ext3 fix from Neil Brown.
More details from Neil:
Some devices - notably dm and md - can change their behaviour in
response to BIO_RW_BARRIER requests. They might start out accepting
such requests but on reconfiguration, they find out that they cannot
any more. JBD2 deal with this by always testing if BIO_RW_BARRIER
requests fail with EOPNOTSUPP, and retrying the write
requests without the barrier (probably after waiting for any pending
writes to complete).
However there is a bug in the handling this in JBD2 for ext4 .
When ext4/JBD2 to submit a BIO_RW_BARRIER request,
it sets the buffer_ordered flag on the buffer head.
If the request completes successfully, the flag STAYS SET.
Other code might then write the same buffer_head after the device has
been reconfigured to not accept barriers. This write will then fail,
but the "other code" is not ready to handle EOPNOTSUPP errors and the
error will be treated as fatal.

We cannot start transaction in ext4_direct_IO() and just let it last
during the whole write because dio_get_page() acquires mmap_sem which
ranks above transaction start (e.g. because we have dependency chain
mmap_sem->PageLock->journal_start, or because we update atime while
holding mmap_sem) and thus deadlocks could happen. We solve the problem
by starting a transaction separately for each ext4_get_block() call.
We *could* have a problem that we allocate a block and before its data
are written out the machine crashes and thus we expose stale data. But
that does not happen because for hole-filling generic code falls back to
buffered writes and for file extension, we add inode to orphan list and
thus in case of crash, journal replay will truncate inode back to the
original size.

In order to prevent a circular locking dependency when an unlink
operation is racing with an ext4 migration, we delay taking i_data_sem
until just before switch the inode format, and use i_mutex to prevent
writes and truncates during the first part of the migration operation.
