b43c5f3dbe ide: cosmetic adaption of drivers/ide/Kconfig concerning SATA
Since especially Serial ATA has it's own menu point now, I guess we can
change the description of the deprecated SATA driver as well, since the
new libATA subsystem is not configured through a SCSI low-level driver
anymore, but has it's own menu point.

8799620400 ide: fix locking for manual DMA enable/disable ("hdparm -d")
Since hwif->ide_dma_check and hwif->ide_dma_on never queue any commands
(ide_config_drive_speed() sets transfer mode using polling and has no error
recovery) we are safe with setting hwgroup->busy for the time while DMA
setting for a drive is changed (so it won't race against I/O commands in fly).

I audited briefly all ->ide_dma_check/->ide_dma_on/->tuneproc/->speedproc
implementations and they all look OK wrt to this change.

This patch finally allowed me to close kernel bugzilla bug #8169
(once again thanks to Patrick Horn for reporting the issue & testing patches).

f68d9320cd ide: revert "ide: fix drive side 80c cable check, take 2" for now
"ide: fix drive side 80c cable check, take 2" patch from Tejun Heo (commit
fab59375b9) fixed 80c bit test (bit13 of word93)
but we also need to fix master/slave IDENTIFY order (slave device should be
probed first in order to make it release PDIAG- signal) and we should also
check for pre-ATA3 slave devices (which may not release PDIAG- signal).

[ Unfortunately the fact that IDE driver doesn't reset devices itself helps
  only a bit as it seems that some BIOS-es reset ATA devices after programming
  the chipset, some BIOS-es can be set to not probe/configure selected devices,
  there may be no BIOS in case of add-on cards etc. ]

Since we are quite late in the release cycle and the required changes will
affect a lot of systems just revert the fix for now.

[ Please also see libata commit f31f0cc2f0. ]

Thanks goes out to Fernando Mitio Yamada for reporting the problem
and patiently testing patches.

c6a4826473 [S390] zcrypt: Fix possible dead lock in AP bus module.
If a AP device is unconfigured __ap_poll_all() will call
device_unregister() in software interrupt context which can cause
dead locks. To fix this the device will be only marked as unconfigured
and the device_unregister() call will be done later by either
ap_scan_bus() or ap_queue_message() in process context.

b70842df77 [S390] kprobes: Align probe address.
Running a probe on s390 with a probe address that is not 4 byte aligned
results in a Kernel BUG.  The problem is that the stura instruction used
by swap_instruction requires the destination address to be 4 byte aligned.
As stura only writes 4 bytes, aligning to the next 4 byte aligned address
results in the breakpoint instruction being stored past the probe address.
The fix is to align the address backward (to the previous 4 byte aligned
address) and writing the two byte breakpoint instruction in the appropriate
bytes.

afbc1e994d [S390] Fix TCP/UDP pseudo header checksum computation.
git commit f994aae1bd changed the
function declaration of csum_tcpudp_nofold. Argument types were
changed from unsigned long to __be32 (unsigned int). Therefore we
lost the implicit type conversion that zeroed the upper half of the
registers that are used to pass parameters. Since the inline assembly
relied on this we ended up adding random values and wrong checksums
were created.
Showed only up on machines with more than 4GB since gcc produced code
where the registers that are used to pass 'saddr' and 'daddr' previously
contained addresses before calling this function.
Fix this by using 32 bit arithmetics and convert code to C, since gcc
produces better code than these hand-optimized versions.

d18edcb212 [TG3]: Exit irq handler during chip reset.
On most tg3 chips, the memory enable bit in the PCI command register
gets cleared during chip reset and must be restored before accessing
PCI registers using memory cycles.  The chip does not generate
interrupt during chip reset, but the irq handler can still be called
because of irq sharing or irqpoll.  Reading a register in the irq
handler can cause a master abort in this scenario and may result in a
crash on some architectures.

Use the TG3_FLAG_CHIP_RESETTING flag to tell the irq handler to exit
without touching any registers.  The checking of the flag is in the
"slow" path of the irq handler and will not affect normal performance.
The msi handler is not shared and therefore does not require checking
the flag.

f11e6659ce [IPV6]: Fix routing round-robin locking.
As per RFC2461, section 6.3.6, item #2, when no routers on the
matching list are known to be reachable or probably reachable we
do round robin on those available routes so that we make sure
to probe as many of them as possible to detect when one becomes
reachable faster.

Each routing table has a rwlock protecting the tree and the linked
list of routes at each leaf.  The round robin code executes during
lookup and thus with the rwlock taken as a reader.  A small local
spinlock tries to provide protection but this does not work at all
for two reasons:

1) The round-robin list manipulation, as coded, goes like this (with
   read lock held):

	walk routes finding head and tail

	spin_lock();
	rotate list using head and tail
	spin_unlock();

   While one thread is rotating the list, another thread can
   end up with stale values of head and tail and then proceed
   to corrupt the list when it gets the lock.  This ends up causing
   the OOPS in fib6_add() later onthat many people have been hitting.

2) All the other code paths that run with the rwlock held as
   a reader do not expect the list to change on them, they
   expect it to remain completely fixed while they hold the
   lock in that way.

So, simply stated, it is impossible to implement this correctly using
a manipulation of the list without violating the rwlock locking
semantics.

Reimplement using a per-fib6_node round-robin pointer.  This way we
don't need to manipulate the list at all, and since the round-robin
pointer can only ever point to real existing entries we don't need
to perform any locking on the changing of the round-robin pointer
itself.  We only need to reset the round-robin pointer to NULL when
the entry it is pointing to is removed.

The idea is from Thomas Graf and it is very similar to how this
was implemented before the advanced router selection code when in.

ecbb416939 [NET]: Fix neighbour destructor handling.
->neigh_destructor() is killed (not used), replaced with
->neigh_cleanup(), which is called when neighbor entry goes to dead
state. At this point everything is still valid: neigh->dev,
neigh->parms etc.

The device should guarantee that dead neighbor entries (neigh->dead !=
0) do not get private part initialized, otherwise nobody will cleanup
it.

I think this is enough for ipoib which is the only user of this thing.
Initialization private part of neighbor entries happens in ipib
start_xmit routine, which is not reached when device is down.  But it
would be better to add explicit test for neigh->dead in any case.

e1701c68c1 [NET]: Fix fib_rules compatibility breakage
Based upon a patch from Patrick McHardy.

The fib_rules netlink attribute policy introduced in 2.6.19 broke
userspace compatibilty. When specifying a rule with "from all"
or "to all", iproute adds a zero byte long netlink attribute,
but the policy requires all addresses to have a size equal to
sizeof(struct in_addr)/sizeof(struct in6_addr), resulting in a
validation error.

Check attribute length of FRA_SRC/FRA_DST in the generic framework
by letting the family specific rules implementation provide the
length of an address. Report an error if address length is non
zero but no address attribute is provided. Fix actual bug by
checking address length for non-zero instead of relying on
availability of attribute.

Allow using jiffies/PIT as a watchdog reference as long as no better

The main goal of the initial patch (preventing to switch to highres/nohz
when no reliable fallback clocksource is available) is still guaranteed
by the checks in clocksource_watchdog().

9501b6cf55 [PATCH] dynticks: fix hrtimer rounding error in next_timer_interrupt
The rework of next_timer_interrupt() fixed the timer wheel bugs, but
invented a rounding error versus the next hrtimer event. This is caused
by the conversion of the hrtimer internal representation to relative
jiffies.

This causes bug #8100:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8100

next_timer_interrupt() returns "now" in such a case and causes the code
in tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to trigger the timer softirq, which is
bogus as no timer is due for expiry. This results in an endless context
switching between idle and ksoftirqd until a timer is due for expiry.

Modify the hrtimer evaluation so that, it returns now + 1, when the
conversion results in a delta < 1 jiffie.

It's confirmed to resolve bug #8100

The SCL line is in fact bidirectional and can also be configured as 117 | GPIO_ALT_FN_1_IN, in which case the pulse is not generated. This is exactly what this patch does.

the mfc0 may not see the SR_IE bit set. This was a deliberate bug in the
kernel code because we knew this was a safe thing to do on all R2 silicon
so far but new silicon is changing this.

c9d0696223 [MIPS] Always use virt_to_phys() when translating kernel addresses
This patch fixes two places where we used plain 'x - PAGE_OFFSET' to
achieve virtual to physical address convertions. This type of convertion
is no more allowed since commit 6f284a2ce7.

f33bc55c47 [PATCH] x86_64: avoid sending LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR IPI to itself
Ray Lee reported, that on an UP kernel with "noapic" command line option
set, the box locks hard during boot.

Adding some debug printks revealed, that the last action on the box
before stalling was "Send IPI" - a debug printk which was put into
smp_send_timer_broadcast_ipi().

It seems that send_IPI_mask(mask, LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR) fails when
"noapic" is set on the command line on an UP kernel.

Aside of that it does not make much sense to trigger an interrupt
instead of calling the function directly on the CPU which gets the
PIT/HPET interrupt in case of broadcasting.

6ea65ff79c [PATCH] i386: clear segment register padding in core dumps
The segment register slots in struct pt_regs are padded to 32 bits.
Some of these are stored with instructions like "pushl %es", which
leaves the high 16 bits as they were.  So the high bits of these
fields in struct pt_regs contain kernel stack garbage.  These bits are
ignored by everything and never leak to user space, except in core
dumps.  The user struct pt_regs is always at the base of the thread's
kernel stack and so it seems unlikely the information that leaks from
here is ever worthwhile so as to be a security concern, but I'm not
sure about that.  It has been this way for ages; userland consumers of
core dumps all mask off these high bits themselves.  So it is not urgent.

This change masks off the padding bits of the segment register slots
in core dumps.  ptrace already masks off these high bits, so this
makes the values in core dumps consistent with what ptrace would
report just before the process died.

As I read the processor manuals, the cs and ss values will always be
padded with zero bits rather than stack garbage.  But unlike "pushl %es",
this is not simple to test with a userland program.  So I added the two
instructions rather than wonder if they are really never necessary.

I think that x86_64 does not have this problem (for either 32-bit or
64-bit processes).  It only uses "mov" instructions from segment
registers, which zero-extend.
