0fea615e52 CPUFREQ: Mark e_powersaver driver as EXPERIMENTAL and DANGEROUS
The e_powersaver driver for VIA's C7 CPU's needs to be marked as
DANGEROUS as it configures the CPU to power states that are out
of specification.

According to Centaur, all systems with C7 and Nano CPU's support
the ACPI p-state method.  Thus, the acpi-cpufreq driver should
be used instead.

The VIA/Centaur C7, C7-M and Nano CPU's all support ACPI based cpu p-states
using a MSR interface.  The Linux driver just never made use of it, since in
addition to the check for the EST flag it also checked if the vendor is Intel.

2b83868723 Make /dev/zero reads interruptible by signals
This helps with bad latencies for large reads from /dev/zero, but might
conceivably break some application that "knows" that a read of /dev/zero
cannot return early.  So do this early in the merge window to give us
maximal test coverage, even if the patch is totally trivial.

Obviously, no well-behaved application should ever depend on the read
being uninterruptible, but hey, bugs happen.

96050dfb25 char: mxser, fix ISA board lookup
There's a bug in the mxser kernel module that still appears in the
2.6.29.4 kernel.

mxser_get_ISA_conf takes a ioaddress as its first argument, by passing the
not of the ioaddr, you're effectively passing 0 which means it won't be
able to talk to an ISA card.  I have tested this, and removing the !
fixes the problem.

a61d90d75d jbd: fix race in buffer processing in commit code
In commit code, we scan buffers attached to a transaction.  During this
scan, we sometimes have to drop j_list_lock and then we recheck whether
the journal buffer head didn't get freed by journal_try_to_free_buffers().
 But checking for buffer_jbd(bh) isn't enough because a new journal head
could get attached to our buffer head.  So add a check whether the journal
head remained the same and whether it's still at the same transaction and
list.

This is a nasty bug and can cause problems like memory corruption (use after
free) or trigger various assertions in JBD code (observed).

463aea1a1c autofs4: remove hashed check in validate_wait()
The recent ->lookup() deadlock correction required the directory inode
mutex to be dropped while waiting for expire completion.  We were
concerned about side effects from this change and one has been identified.

I saw several error messages.

They cause autofs to become quite confused and don't really point to the
actual problem.

Things like:

handle_packet_missing_direct:1376: can't find map entry for (43,1827932)

which is usually totally fatal (although in this case it wouldn't be
except that I treat is as such because it normally is).

do_mount_direct: direct trigger not valid or already mounted
/test/nested/g3c/s1/ss1

which is recoverable, however if this problem is at play it can cause
autofs to become quite confused as to the dependencies in the mount tree
because mount triggers end up mounted multiple times.  It's hard to
accurately check for this over mounting case and automount shouldn't need
to if the kernel module is doing its job.

There was one other message, similar in consequence of this last one but I
can't locate a log example just now.

When checking if a mount has already completed prior to adding a new mount
request to the wait queue we check if the dentry is hashed and, if so, if
it is a mount point.  But, if a mount successfully completed while we
slept on the wait queue mutex the dentry must exist for the mount to have
completed so the test is not really needed.

Mounts can also be done on top of a global root dentry, so for the above
case, where a mount request completes and the wait queue entry has already
been removed, the hashed test returning false can cause an incorrect
callback to the daemon.  Also, d_mountpoint() is not sufficient to check
if a mount has completed for the multi-mount case when we don't have a
real mount at the base of the tree.

52ea3a56a3 cls_cgroup: Fix oops when user send improperly 'tc filter add' request
I found a bug in cls_cgroup_change() in cls_cgroup.c.
cls_cgroup_change() expected tca[TCA_OPTIONS] was set from user space properly,
but tc in iproute2-2.6.29-1 (which I used) didn't set it.

In the current source code of tc in git, it set tca[TCA_OPTIONS].

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git

If we always use a newest iproute2 in git when we use cls_cgroup, 
we don't face this oops probably.
But I think, kernel shouldn't panic regardless of use program's behaviour.

fdd7b4c330 r8169: fix crash when large packets are received
Michael Tokarev reported receiving a large packet could crash
a machine with RTL8169 NIC.
( original thread at http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/6/8/192 )

Problem is this driver tells that NIC frames up to 16383 bytes
can be received but provides skb to rx ring allocated with
smaller sizes (1536 bytes in case standard 1500 bytes MTU is used)

When a frame larger than what was allocated by driver is received,
dma transfert can occurs past the end of buffer and corrupt
kernel memory.

Fix is to tell to NIC what is the maximum size a frame can be.

This bug is very old, (before git introduction, linux-2.6.10), and 
should be backported to stable versions.

0e6e0271a2 md/raid5: fix bug in reshape code when chunk_size decreases.
Now that we support changing the chunksize, we calculate
"reshape_sectors" to be the max of number of sectors in old
and new chunk size.
However there is one please where we still use 'chunksize'
rather than 'reshape_sectors'.
This causes a reshape that reduces the size of chunks to freeze.

a8c906ca3f md/raid5 - avoid deadlocks in get_active_stripe during reshape
md has functionality to 'quiesce' and array so that all pending
IO completed and no new IO starts.  This is used to achieve a
stable state before making internal changes.

Currently this quiescing applies equally to normal IO, resync
IO, and reshape IO.
However there is a problem with applying it to reshape IO.
Reshape can have multiple 'stripe_heads' that must be active together.
If the quiesce come between allocating the first and the last of
such a collection, then we deadlock, as the last will not be allocated
until the quiesce is lifted, the quiesce will not be lifted until the
first (which has been allocated) gets used, and that first cannot be
used until the last is allocated.

It is not necessary to inhibit reshape IO when a quiesce is
requested.  Those places in the code that require a full quiesce will
ensure the reshape thread is not running at all.

So allow reshape requests to get access to new stripe_heads without
being blocked by a 'quiesce'.

This only affects in-place reshapes (i.e. where the array does not
grow or shrink) and these are only newly supported.  So this patch is
not needed in earlier kernels.

f001a70cdc md/raid5: use conf->raid_disks in preference to mddev->raid_disk
mddev->raid_disks can be changed and any time by a request from
user-space.  It is a suggestion as to what number of raid_disks is
desired.

conf->raid_disks can only be changed by the raid5 module with suitable
locks in place.  It is a statement as to the current number of
raid_disks.

There are two places where the latter should be used, but the former
is used.  This can lead to a crash when reshaping an array.

This patch changes to mddev-> to conf->

3af968e066 async: Fix lack of boot-time console due to insufficient synchronization
Our async work synchronization was broken by "async: make sure
independent async domains can't accidentally entangle" (commit
d5a877e8dd), because it would report
the wrong lowest active async ID when there was both running and
pending async work.

This caused things like no being able to read the root filesystem,
resulting in missing console devices and inability to run 'init',
causing a boot-time panic.

This fixes it by properly returning the lowest pending async ID: if
there is any running async work, that will have a lower ID than any
pending work, and we should _not_ look at the pending work list.

There were alternative patches from Jaswinder and James, but this one
also cleans up the code by removing the pointless 'ret' variable and
the unnecesary testing for an empty list around 'for_each_entry()' (if
the list is empty, the for_each_entry() thing just won't execute).

5636919b5c MIPS: Outline udelay and fix a few issues.
Outlining fixes the issue were on certain CPUs such as the R10000 family
the delay loop would need an extra cycle if it overlaps a cacheline
boundary.

The rewrite also fixes build errors with GCC 4.4 which was changed in
way incompatible with the kernel's inline assembly.

Relying on pure C for computation of the delay value removes the need for
explicit.  The price we pay is a slight slowdown of the computation - to
be fixed on another day.

Indeed we still rely on apic->read operation for SMP compiled
kernel. And instead of disfigure the SMP code with #ifdef we
allow to call apic->read. To capture any unexpected results
we check for apic->read being called for sane reason via
WARN_ON_ONCE but(!) instead of OR we should use AND logical
operation (thanks Yinghai for spotting the root of the problem).

Along with that we could be have bad MP table and we are
to fix it that way no SMP started and no complains about
BIOS bug if apic was just disabled via command line.
