The faulting instruction is the storage key operation (iske) in
ptep_rcp_copy (called by pte_clear, called by unmap_vmas). iske
reads dirty and reference bit information for a physical page and
requires a valid physical address. Since we are in pte_clear, we
cannot rely on the pte containing a valid address. Fortunately we
dont need these information in pte_clear - after all there is no
mapping. The best fix is to remove the needless call to ptep_rcp_copy
that contains the iske.

..
The s390 implementation of sched_clock uses the store clock instruction and
subtracts jiffies_timer_cc.
jiffies_timer_cc is a local variable in arch/s390/kernel/time.c and only used
for sched_clock and monotonic clock. For historical reasons there is an offset
on that value. With todays code this offset is unnecessary. By removing that
offset we can get a sched_clock which returns the nanoseconds after time_init.
This improves CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME.
Since sched_clock is the only user, I have also renamed jiffies_timer_cc to
sched_clock_base_cc. In addition, the local variable init_timer_cc is redundant
and can be romved as well.

syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call
chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But
collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of
syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus.
To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field
in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process
is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path.
The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2]
for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2]
may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call
chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

Often we do things like put BUG() in the default clause of a case
statement. Since it was not declared __noreturn, this could sometimes
lead to bogus compiler warnings that variables were used
uninitialized.
There is a small problem in that we have to put a magic while(1); loop to
fool GCC into really thinking it is noreturn. This makes the new
BUG() function 3 instructions long instead of just 1, but I think it
is worth it as it is now unnecessary to do extra work to silence the
'used uninitialized' warnings.
I also re-wrote BUG_ON so that if it is given a constant condition, it
just does BUG() instead of loading a constant value in to a register
and testing it.

Itanium processors can handle some misaligned data accesses. They
also provide a mode where all such accesses are forced to trap. The
kernel was schizophrenic about use of this mode:
* Base kernel code ran in permissive mode where the only traps
generated were from those cases that the h/w could not handle.
* Interrupt, syscall and trap code ran in strict mode where all
unaligned accesses caused traps to the 0x5a00 unaligned reference
vector.
Use strict alignment checking throughout the kernel, but make
sure that we continue to let user mode use more relaxed mode
as the default.

When we migrate an interrupt from one CPU to another, we set the
move_in_progress flag and clean up the vectors later once they're not
being used. If you're unlucky and call destroy_irq() before the vectors
become un-used, the move_in_progress flag is never cleared, which causes
the interrupt to become unusable.
This was discovered by Jesse Brandeburg for whom it manifested as an
MSI-X device refusing to use MSI-X mode when the driver was unloaded
and reloaded repeatedly.

The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:
addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)
this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.
But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:
if (addr < 0)
break;
Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.
Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).
This patch survived my compile and run-tests.

Introduce a new accept4() system call. The addition of this system call
matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(),
inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls
that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags
argument that can be used to access additional functionality.
The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that
it adds a flags bit-mask argument. Two flags are initially implemented.
(Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.)
SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled
for the new file descriptor returned by accept4(). This is a useful
security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded
program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as
another thread is doing a fork() plus exec(). More details here:
http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling",
Ulrich Drepper).
The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag
to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4().
(This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls
fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result.
Here's a test program. Works on x86-32. Should work on x86-64, but
I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with.
It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of
SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies
that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file
description returned by accept4().
I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2,
and it passes according to my test program.

Dell Optiplex 330 appears to hang on reboot. This is resolved by adding
a quirk to set bios reboot.

Impact: widen the reach of the low-memory-protect DMI quirk
Phoenix BIOSes variously identify their vendor as "Phoenix Technologies,
LTD" or "Phoenix Technologies LTD" (without the comma.)
This patch makes the identification string in the bad_bios_dmi_table
more general (following a suggestion by Ingo Molnar), so that both
versions are handled.
Again, the patched file compiles cleanly and the patch has been tested
successfully on my machine.
